"Learn from Comrade Lei Feng. ”
In just 7 words, it contains the emotions of several generations, although Lei Feng has passed away, but it has become a spiritual symbol, encouraging countless people to forge ahead.
So do you know how Lei Feng died? Why didn't anyone who had experienced it come forward and tell the truth until 34 years after his death?
Lei Feng's death stemmed from an accident.
On August 15, 1962, Lei Feng, who worked in an automobile company of a certain unit of the People's Liberation Army, received a task of transporting cotton clothes.
Although the weather was gloomy, it was raining lightly, and the roads were muddy, Lei Feng still set off with his comrades early and successfully completed the task.
It's just that after coming back, Lei Feng found that the car was full of mud marks, so he prepared to go to the car wash with his comrades.
At that time, passing by the barracks, there happened to be a relatively narrow aisle, in order to prevent accidents, Lei Feng got out of the car in advance and prepared to direct his comrades to reverse.
But what he didn't expect was that during the reversing process, the left rear wheel of the car still slid into the ditch on the side of the road.
When the car was jolting and shaking, it accidentally knocked down a square wooden pole that is usually used to dry clothes, and the pole fell down and finally smashed into Lei Feng's temple.
The comrades-in-arms were still in the car trying to prepare to drive the car up, but they didn't expect that Lei Feng had already fallen.
It wasn't until I couldn't hear Lei Feng's voice for a long time, and when my comrades-in-arms got out of the car to check, they found Lei Feng who had fallen to the ground, and hurriedly called someone to send him to the hospital next to him.
Upon learning that Lei Feng was seriously injured and sent to the hospital for rescue, leaders at all levels hurried to the hospital, and experts from major hospitals were also invited.
It's a pity that Lei Feng's skull has been seriously damaged, and Lei Feng, who was only 22 years old, finally passed away.
After Lei Feng's death, Shi Baoguang and Zhang Jun were ordered to go to the scene to investigate, restore the truth, and come to the conclusion that Lei Feng died in the line of duty and had an accident.
This sensational event has come to an end, and although people sigh, most of them have been forced to accept this reality.
But there is one person who never gets outThat was Lei Feng's comrade-in-arms who was in charge of driving at the time, Qiao Anshan.
Qiao Anshan, born in Liaoyang City, Liaoning Province in 1941, came out to work early due to his poor family.
In 1959, he met Lei Feng, who was just 19 years old, at Anshan Iron and Steel Company.
At that time, the two were roommates, eating and living together, and they had a good relationship, so when Lei Feng joined the army in 1960, Qiao Anshan also followed him into the army and was also assigned to a company.
As the eldest brother, Lei Feng took good care of Qiao Anshan, there were very few cars in the company at that time, and Qiao Anshan had no chance to drive at all.
In order to train Qiao Anshan, Lei Feng often asked Qiao Anshan to drive when the two of them were on a mission, exercising his driving skills, and helping him develop a craft.
But Lei Feng never thought that his kindness would eventually become a burden that crushed Qiao Anshan.
Soon after Lei Feng's death, Qiao Anshan left the army and transferred to the Fifth Construction Company of the Ministry of Machinery, and from that period on, he tried his best to hide his relationship with Lei Feng.
In fact, the organization had already told him that Lei Feng's death was an accident, and he didn't have to have too much pressure, but Lei Feng's death still made Qiao Anshan blame himself very much.
Refusing to meet with any reporters, refusing to participate in any form of Lei Feng's spiritual report meeting, and refusing to mention Lei Feng is the state of Qiao Anshan in the next few decades.
Not only that, but he was deeply caught up in contradictions.
On the one hand, he was reluctant to mention Lei Feng, and on the other hand, he demanded himself and his family with Lei Feng's standards.
Let's talk about himself first, after the accident in 1962, whenever others ask him for help when they encounter difficulties, he will rarely refuse, and even sometimes when he sees others in trouble, he will take the initiative to help.
In 1988, when Qiao Anshan returned to Tieling from Shenyang that winter, he passed by Huishan and accidentally found that an elderly man had been hit by a car.
Although there were people around, no one was willing to help, only Qiao Anshan stepped forward to care for the old man and sent the old man to the hospital.
However, not all good people have good rewards, and after the old man's children arrived at the hospital, they insisted that it was the old man who was hit by Qiao Anshan.
The old man himself was silent and refused to testify to Qiao Anshan, and in the end Qiao Anshan was compensated for 40,000 yuan, and the matter was a sensation at the time.
Even so, Qiao Anshan still did not give up helping others, in his opinion in the past, he was not living alone, and he was still burdened with Lei Feng's expectations.
Let's talk about his family, Qiao Anshan's two sons have been strictly demanded by their father since they were young.
Once, Qiao Anshan's two sons picked up a wallet outside, and if someone else might choose to ignore it, they might choose to hand it over.
However, Qiao Anshan's two sons remembered their father's teachings and waited for the owner in the cold wind until decades later, when they remembered the bitterness of the cold wind clearly.
From the above two aspects, we can see that Lei Feng's death has brought too much pressure to Qiao Anshan, and even caused him to have some potential problems in terms of spirit.
These problems were not obvious at the beginning, until 1991, when the Tieling team was contracted to someone else, and Qiao Anshan waited to go home.
And his two sons were also laid off one after another, and these problems were completely detonated under the embarrassment of life.
From one day on, Qiao Anshan went crazy, he ran around barefoot in the heavy rain, did not eat, drink or talk to others, and did not even know people, just stared at others in a trance.
After Qiao Anshan went crazy, the two sons have been by their father's side, taking care of their father's daily life, and I don't know how many nights they secretly wiped their tears.
Fortunately, after their careful care, Qiao Anshan's condition gradually stabilized.
Even after experiencing some catharsis, he slowly let go of the pressure he had borne for more than 30 years and walked out of the incident of Lei Feng's death.
So when the reporter came to interview, Qiao Anshan finally told the story from the perspective of the person concerned after more than 30 years.
So on March 4, 1996, we saw the movie based on Qiao Anshan-"The Day I Left Lei Feng".
said that it was "leaving Lei Feng", but in the past 34 years, Qiao Anshan has never put Lei Feng down from his heart, saying that he "came out", but we seem to see that the new Lei Feng has shone into reality.
Since 1997, Qiao Anshan has been going to all parts of the country to make reports and give speeches, and the content of the speeches is the "little things" that happened to Lei Feng at the beginning, as well as the spirit revealed in those small things.
This kind of report sounds simple, but it's actually much more difficult than we think.
In July 1997, Qiao Anshan was invited to Xinjiang to give a report, and he would do 45 lectures in 15 days.
You must know that in Xinjiang at that time, the temperature could reach up to 45 degrees during the day, and it was a double test of body and spirit to report outside for 15 consecutive days in such high temperatures.
In February 2009, he was also invited to run 4 cities in 9 days, and make a total of 10 reports.
And this situation has gradually become the norm in his reporting career, which shows how hard the work is.
Since the time for each report is not short, he doesn't want to go to the toilet halfway and delay everyone's time.
So much so that he did not drink enough water for a long time, and eventually suffered from many diseases such as high blood pressure, high blood sugar and stone disease, and even several times, he fainted directly on the stage in the process of making a report.
This kind of dedication is truly admirable.
It is precisely because of his hardships that people have more respect and understanding for him.
Once, the planes from Wuhan to Chongqing had already driven onto the runway and were ready to take off, but they stopped at the critical moment and returned to the tarmac.
Just when people were talking, the flight attendant stood up and explained, it turned out that Qiao Anshan had to fly to Chongqing to make a report after making a report in Wuhan, but due to traffic jams on the road, he couldn't board the plane in time.
In order to allow Qiao Anshan to go to Chongqing smoothly to hold a report meeting, the airport leaders directly asked the plane to return so that Qiao Anshan could board the plane smoothly.
You must know that this situation is at the airport, which is the first time in the world, but even so, the passengers who knew the reason also expressed their understanding of this matter, and even expressed their respect and admiration with applause.
So hard, so tired, what supports Qiao Anshan to continue walking?
The answer may be four words"Lei Feng Spirit".
On August 13, 2005, heavy rain suddenly fell in the Fushun area, causing flooding in many rivers within the jurisdiction.
At that time, there were still 1,044 students trapped by the flood in the Fushun Qingyuan Xuelei Feng Base, and Qiao Anshan was also trapped there as a counselor.
At this moment, countless "Lei Feng" stood up, and they rescued the affected people regardless of the danger they were facing, so that Qiao Anshan, who saw that scene, burst into tears.
In addition to making a report, what other efforts has Qiao Anshan made to carry forward the spirit of Lei Feng?
In 2011, China established the Chinese Lei Feng Culture Promotion Association, and Qiao Anshan is the vice president of the association.
In addition, he is also the vice president of the China Lei Feng Spirit Research Association, the honorary consultant of the Fushun Lei Feng Typical Federation, etc., as long as it is related to the promotion of Lei Feng's spirit, he can be said to be a personal practice.
Not only that, but he also helped to set up many Lei Zi units in various parts of China, such as Lei Feng Primary School, Lei Feng Savings Bank and Lei Feng Taxi.
Most of these units are related to the nature of public welfare, which can bring a lot of positive guidance to carry forward the spirit of Lei Feng.
In addition to running a unit, making donations is also indispensable.
Qiao Anshan's life on weekdays is very simple, eating coarse tea and light rice, wearing cotton and linen clothes, and as for the money earned, it is basically donated to those in need.
For example, in 1998, when there was a flood in the Songhua River and Nenjiang areas, he donated 600 yuan and 400 yuan worth of quilts to the affected people.
In 2001, in order to improve the enthusiasm of teachers in Fushun Lei Feng Middle School, he took out 1,000 yuan to reward outstanding teachers, and in 2002, he donated 6,000 yuan to rebuild the Fushun Lei Feng Memorial Hall ......
Over the past few decades, we have been unable to count how many good things Qiao Anshan has done, and his dedication to carrying forward the spirit of Lei Feng is also obvious to all.
It's just that at this time, some friends may want to ask, what did Qiao Anshan gain in the process?
If we talk about his personal gains, then it is more likely to be inner satisfaction and spiritual pride, as for material gains, there is basically none.
There used to be many units that thought of using the name of carrying forward the spirit of Lei Feng to get Qiao Anshan to their own units and make money for themselves.
For example, a unit in Hangzhou wants to establish an education base, wants to invite Qiao Anshan to be a teacher, and gives him a salary of 10,000 yuan every month, and by the way, he can also assign jobs to his two sons.
For another example, a certain company in Tianjin wants to invite Qiao Anshan to advertise, and as long as it is an advertisement, it will offer him 400,000 yuan.
For these units with crooked thoughts, Qiao Anshan will always have one sentence, "impossible".
Not only that, even if he goes out to make reports and give speeches, Qiao Anshan has very high requirements for himself, and the so-called is printed on the back of his business card"Out of Hachijo".
Don't increase the size, don't pick up and drop off, don't write welcome slogans, don't trouble leaders, don't exceed the standard when eating, don't smoke sugar and fruits, refuse other remuneration, and don't have luxury rooms.
Seeing these eight, the unit in charge of reception naturally knows what kind of person Qiao Anshan is.
Perhaps this is also an important reason why Qiao Anshan's action to carry forward Lei Feng's spirit has never deteriorated.
In fact, Qiao Anshan did not have such a high consciousness at the beginning, and even when Lei Feng persuaded him to join the army, he only felt that he could have a salary of more than 50 yuan, and he did not have the subjective desire to enter the army.
Later, Lei Feng went to the bookstore out of his own pocket to buy a lot of books, and popularized patriotic education for Qiao Anshan little by little, which made him germinate the idea of joining the army and serving the country.
The same happened after that, during his time in the army, Lei Feng set a good example for Qiao Anshan with his words and deeds.
Qiao Anshan has also been deliberately moving closer to Lei Feng, although there are twists and turns in the middle, because of Lei Feng's death, it has brought a great blow to Qiao Anshan.
But fortunately, he eventually came out and found his own path.
"We are not Lei Feng, but we should learn the spirit of Lei Feng, this society will always need Lei Feng. ”
This is a concise sentence, but it is full of strength, and we should also be inspired by this, learn from Comrade Lei Feng, and learn from Comrade Qiao Anshan.
