Years later, Zhou Fuming reported one thing to ***
Selfless and fearless, without any private desires. ”
Zhou Fuming, a person who has an indissoluble bond with ***. It was a complete serendipity that he was able to be the best barber of the world. It was on December 26, 1959, ** 66th birthday, that he suddenly asked for a haircut while inspecting work in Hangzhou.
However, Master Xiaoqian, who was specifically responsible for haircuts, suddenly fell ill and could not complete the task, which made the local party and government departments in Hangzhou and the guards around *** feel very anxious.
Some people may ask, isn't it just a matter of just finding a barber for a haircut? In fact, it is not an easy thing to be able to become a *** barber.
First of all, the historical background of the barber himself and his family must be free of problems, and his personal thinking must be progressive; Secondly, the haircutting technique should be good; Finally, and most importantly, it is necessary to have a good mental quality.
If you are so nervous that your hands tremble when you see ***, then how do you give *** a haircut? With his own efforts and talents, Zhou Fuming successfully became the barber of ***, which is also a special tribute and commemoration of his chairman.
In 1958, when he went out to inspect the Security Bureau, he selected a young barber to serve him in Beijing. The young barber was extremely excited when he learned that he was going to give *** a haircut, and as a result, when he shaved ***, his hands couldn't stop shaking, and his body was sweating like rain.
The chairman is also a human being, and it must have been uncomfortable to see the nervous barber and the trembling razor, so the chairman never looked for the barber again. After layers of screening, Zhou Fuming, a 23-year-old probationary party member, was selected by Secretary Zhao, secretary of the district party committee, by virtue of his excellent performance in the barber industry in Hangzhou.
In order to test Zhou Fuming's psychological quality, Secretary Zhao specially arranged a task for Zhou Fuming to go to the Hangzhou Hotel to give a haircut to a "foreign guest". After Zhou Fuming received the task, he immediately prepared the tools and followed Secretary Zhao to go together.
After receiving the mission notice, Zhou Fuming immediately took his tools, got into a jeep and went straight to the reception. In the room, a young man politely said to him: "I have come with the chief, and I hope you will give him a haircut." ”
Zhou Fuming agreed without hesitation. He was calm and unhurried, and completed the task meticulously. However, what Zhou Fuming didn't expect was that after a haircut, three more people were going to get a haircut one after another, including a director of the Provincial Public Security Department, a young man who claimed to be Chief Li Wei, and a female comrade who claimed to be "Hou Bo".
Although he had never dealt with cadres, he noticed a common denominator, which was that all three people almost all asked him the same questions, such as "is it nervous to give a haircut to a stranger", "how long does it take to get a haircut", "can it be done in half an hour", and so on.
Picture丨*** and Li Yinqiao took a photo Zhou Fuming slowly realized that they were testing themselves, but what was there to test them? The doubts in Zhou Fuming's heart were even worse.
Sure enough, at about ten o'clock in the middle of the night, a car picked up Zhou Fuming again, and immediately after he got out of the car, a person greeted him, it turned out to be the captain Li who got a haircut at noon today, and Chief Li said: "I am the chief guard of ***, and I invite you to come today to give *** a haircut." ”
Zhou Fuming's ears suddenly sounded like a thunderbolt, and he was so stunned that he forgot to say hello to Li Yinqiao. Li Yinqiao didn't care, and while taking him inside, he continued: "Master Xiao Zhou, there is a requirement for *** haircut, that is, the time should be faster, don't be too nervous, just take care of it, it's the same as usual." ”
Zhou Fuming couldn't hide his excitement, nodded his head constantly, and walked towards the lounge of the swimming pool pavilion. After a while, the burly *** walked in. "Hello! ”
This is a greeting that Zhou Fuming finally squeezed out of his throat.
1. "Look, this old guy is concentrating on reading! This is *** Zhou Fuming just finished giving him a haircut. Sit in a chair with a book in your hand.
He didn't let Zhou Fuming wash his hair, and directly started to get a haircut. Zhou Fuming thought to himself, this is the most nervous time I have ever been in the industry. Although it was the coldest day in Hangzhou, Zhou Fuming's head was still sweating, and the heat of the swimming pool made Zhou Fuming even hotter.
He took off his cotton clothes directly, leaving only a shirt. " 2. "The elder brother in this ** is reading the newspaper intently. He is *** Zhou Fuming just finished giving him a haircut.
Sit in a chair with a book in your hand. He didn't let Zhou Fuming wash his hair, and directly started to get a haircut. Zhou Fuming thought to himself, this is the most nervous time I have ever been in the industry.
Although it was the coldest day in Hangzhou, Zhou Fuming's head was still sweating, and the heat of the swimming pool made Zhou Fuming even hotter. He took off his cotton clothes directly, leaving only a shirt. "

Fig**In the Haircut Figure|**In the shaving figure|**Conversation with barber Zhou Fuming** also seemed to notice something, so he put down the book in his hand and chatted with Zhou Fuming about family life.
After the haircut, ** consciously puffed out his mouth and took the initiative to cooperate with Zhou Fuming to shave. Zhou Fuming hurriedly said: "Chairman, you don't need to puff your mouth, just do the same as usual, I will use two fingers to prop it up and then scrape." ”
After listening, he nodded in satisfaction and laughed. The war-hardened *** still maintains an aristocratic elegance in the crowd, and conversations, meals and even haircuts are calm and natural with people.
It is said that he liked nothing more than to sit in a barber chair and let the barber shave his beard. In particular, the barber Zhou Fuming, who trimmed his beard particularly neatly. A reporter once asked***Why do you trust Zhou Fuming so much? ”
Answer: "He shaved so well that I could feel his intentions." Zhou Fuming, a farmer from Jianyang, Sichuan, has been appreciated and trusted by *** because of his skills and character.
After obtaining his consent, ** brought Zhou Fuming to Beijing and came to Zhongnanhai, and this work was a full seventeen years, until *** died.
A group photo of Zhou Fuming and ***, this ** records the 17 years that Zhou Fuming has been with ***. Zhou Fuming is one of the people who has been with him for the longest time, and he is also one of the people who knows the most about life in his later years.
As a barber, Zhou Fuming's job is to cut hair, but the haircutting process is not easy. First of all, the image of ** is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and his basic hairstyle cannot be changed.
Secondly, the haircutting process is very casual, without sophisticated tools and a comfortable environment. Despite this, Zhou Fuming still did his best and gave *** a haircut with his heart.
He told us that for *** haircut, it is difficult to get a haircut.
** is a leader who loves to read, and often uses this opportunity to read books when he gets a haircut. Whether it was the Great Hall of the People or the residence where he went out to make rounds, he used to get a haircut there.
However, "casual" has become a difficult part of getting a haircut. Every time I get a haircut, I am immersed in the book, and I can't help but laugh out loud when I see an interesting plot, and even tilt my head forward.
These actions brought challenges to the barber Zhou Fuming, who could not stop *** from reading, nor could he swing his head directly. So, how can a barber get a smooth haircut?
FigZhou Fuming is the best private barber, he has excellent haircutting skills, and can adjust the angle of the haircut according to the changes in the reading posture of the first class, so that he can do it with ease.
Zhou Fuming not only has exquisite skills, but also a discerning art connoisseur, he has always maintained the best hairstyle design for the whole seventeen years, which can be called professional.
However, he was not satisfied with this, but found that the hair on his temples was too little, he looked a little bald, and his hairstyle was relatively dull and lacked a natural feeling.
After much deliberation, he decided to tidy up a little and leave the right length of the hair on his temples to make the hairstyle look more natural and even the face shape to appear fuller.
**Very satisfied with this, he praised Zhou Fuming and said: "He is worthy of being a barber." And let him keep it all the time.
Fig**'s hairstyle has always been the most representative, and Zhou Fuming, the barber next to him, is the one who took care of this iconic hairstyle for him. With his many years of experience, Zhou Fuming knows that haircuts need to be accurate in order to ensure the consistency of hairstyles.
During the haircut process, Zhou Fuming will pay special attention to the hair on the chairman's right side is thicker than the hair on the left, and a little carelessness will lead to an asymmetrical hairstyle. After countless times of practice, Zhou Fuming has a clear idea of how much hair is removed from the chairman's temples, and every haircut can be accurate.
After the haircut, barbers usually choose a hair dryer to fix the hairstyle, but *** does not like to use a hair dryer. Therefore, Zhou Fuming used the "soil" method to fix the hairstyle.
At first, he would use the method of washing his hair to fix his hairstyle, but later, his physical condition was not good, and it became difficult to wash his hair, so Zhou Fuming switched to using a hot towel and then using the soil method of a grate to solve the problem of fixing the hairstyle, and the effect was equally good.
Since Zhou Fuming started to cut hair, he has been giving *** haircuts twice a week until the 70s, for a total of more than 17 years.
During this period, Zhou Fuming roughly calculated that the number of haircuts was no less than 1,800 times, and there was never any mistake. As a result, Zhou Fuming has become the barber who has been cutting hairs for the longest time, the most times, and the last haircut to the end of his life.
Zhou Fuming has been a haircut for *** for many years, and he will help pick vegetables in the kitchen in his spare time. Later, only Zhang Jingfang and his two guards were left by his side, and he was able to have a deeper understanding of ***'s life.
He found that *** was very frugal, never wasted food, had a light diet, often had patches on his clothes, and was reluctant to change even his pajamas for many years. **I couldn't stand it, so I asked Zhou Fuming to help him make up for the chairman when he was not at home.
Zhou Fuming was deeply influenced by the chairman, saying: "I am the son of a farmer. This is the sentence he hears the most around ***.
** Has a deep affection for used and patched household items and clothing, and he does not allow others to change them casually. He even did the same with matchboxes, feeling that matchboxes made of wood were too wasteful, and after each match ran out, he would ask the staff to buy loose matches and keep them in the old matchbox.
This thrifty habit reflects the love of the common people in his heart at all times. In the *** exhibition hall, what is now displayed is the used matchbox that Zhou Fuming preserved from ***.
In addition, almost all the staff around him have been helped by him, such as Zhou Fuming, when his family was in difficulty, ** took out his own manuscript fee to help him get through the difficulties.
Don't thank me, the people are your benefactors. You work for me, and I should help you. If you encounter difficulties, I will do my best. In the 17 years that Zhou Fuming has served, he has witnessed no more than 7 hours of sleep a day, because he has devoted all his time to meeting foreign guests, reviewing documents and reading books.
Despite his poor health in his later years, ** still insisted on reading, although reading for too long would make him feel unwell, his face was sweaty, and the guards reminded him that he should be raised when he was unwell, but *** even his lips were purple and he insisted and never complained.
What impressed Zhou Fuming the most was what happened in the last two days of his life. At that time, ** could no longer eat by himself, and he didn't even have the strength to speak.
Suddenly, he signaled to the people around him, Zhou Fuming noticed that *** wanted a pen and paper, and he immediately took them to ***
** Always keep an eye on national events, even in the last moments of life. He closed his eyes tiredly, but still cared about the documents of the outgoing Japanese Prime Minister Takeo Miki.
With the help of Zhou Fuming, he looked at the document. On September 9, 1976, ** unfortunately passed away, Zhou Fuming was deeply shocked, he couldn't believe everything in front of him, and cried bitterly.
He realized that *** had not had a haircut for a long time, and he begged the leader to give *** one last haircut and fix the last face, in order to express his deep respect and nostalgia for ***.
FigPeople shed tears to say goodbye to Zhou Fuming because he knew that he was about to leave the leader he respected. He stared at *** on the bed, he had never seen *** sleep so sweetly and so soundly.
He thought that ***'s life was full of toil and exhaustion, but his voice was so kind: "I do my business, you do your business, we don't interfere with each other." Zhou Fuming promised the chairman that he would gently cut his hair and let the chairman rest in peace.
After bidding farewell to the chairman, Zhou Fuming was assigned to work in the office of the Security Bureau of the ** General Office. When the organization approached him to talk, he did not hesitate to say that if the organization needed him to continue working at ***'s former residence, he would do it, even if he was not paid.
Working with the former residence of ***, the old man Zhou Fuming was full of emotion: "Seeing things and thinking about people." "Even after leaving his job, he still has the chairman's heart at heart and is ready to accept the chairman's call.
Every year on September 9, the anniversary of the chairman's death, is a special day for Zhou Fuming's family. He will put on the clothes that he is usually reluctant to wear, and take his family to the *** Memorial Hall to express his deep nostalgia for the chairman.
On September 9, 2008, Zhou Fuming came to the chairman's memorial hall again, laid a large wreath, bowed three times to the white marble statue of the chairman, and then came to the chairman's body to pay his respects again. "
The old man Zhou Fuming goes to the *** Memorial Hall every year, and he will be very heavy every time. He would bow three times before the chairman, and then silently report to the chairman: "Rest in peace, Chairman."
Our country has done a very great thing this year that no one has done before. Our country has successfully hosted the Olympic Games and won 100 medals, which is the pride of the Chinese nation.
At the moment, the Paralympics are underway and I want to let you know. ”
