One day in March 1959, ** met with Shui Jing, the wife of Mrs. Yang Shangkui, in Shanghai, and he humorously said: "Your name is Shui Jing, and this name does not seem to conform to dialectics. ”
Shui Jing smiled and explained: "Chairman, have you heard of the Soviet ** "Quiet Don River"? The name actually has a deep meaning, as it symbolizes calmness but also vitality. ”
Nodding in agreement: "Yes, you're right. Some lakes may appear calm on the surface, but they are full of life underneath. ”
**Showing Wisdom in Conversation***'s wisdom is not only reflected in military and politics, but also in daily conversations, by digging into the deep meaning and story in the name, showing his wit and humor.
He often used his profound knowledge and superhuman memory to give new meanings to his names. **When chatting with cronies, they often make small jokes with their names, which makes people laugh.
When meeting someone new for the first time, he will also make a fuss with his name. For example, when he first met the housekeeper Wu Liandeng, he noticed the name Wu Liandeng, and deduced that it was not the name chosen by his parents, but by someone else.
Wu Liandeng also confirmed his guess. Then, ** used his wisdom to explain the meaning of "Deng", and also explained the word "Lianden", so that people understood the meaning of the name.
In a humorous way, he explained the meaning of Wu Liandeng's name and told people that it was a good name, but because of the special meaning of the surname Wu, the name did not reflect the meaning of "Liandeng".
This kind of wit and humor makes people look at him with admiration and also shows his unique charm.
After listening to the chairman's words, Wu Liandeng suddenly showed a shy smile, and the nervousness of seeing the chairman for the first time became relaxed, and the chairman in front of him became more and more close.
It turns out that the chairman can also be so gracious. When Wu Liandeng's smile bloomed, the chairman said: "Although the meaning of the fifth son Dengke is good, but when you come here now, the main task is not to go to the department, but to put the people first and serve the people." ”
After listening to the chairman's words, the atmosphere became more relaxed and pleasant, and all the staff were infected by the chairman's wit and humor. In his unique way, the chairman made the staff around him feel cordial and warm.
In Wu Liandeng's first meeting with Chairman ***, the word "serving the people" was deeply imprinted in his heart, and in his future work, he worked harder to serve the people.
In addition to the housekeeper Wu Liandeng, the chairman also explained the name of the chief Wu Xujun.
After a health check, Wu Xujun had a conversation with ***. ** humorously said: "Wu Xujun is a wonderful name, it sounds very similar to 'bacteria-free', which means that you have to maintain sterility in your medical work and avoid bacterial infection."
As a **, you have to be clean and hygienic, which can improve productivity. The name is perfect for your career. In addition to being good at digging out the meaning of the names of the staff around him, ** also talked about the meaning of other people's names at the banquet, the most famous of which was his ** name for Mrs. Yang Shangkui Shui Jing.
Shui Jing's name seems to violate dialectics, but her admiration for *** has not diminished in the slightest. In March 1959, she came to Shanghai with her husband Yang Shangkui to attend the enlarged meeting of the Politburo and the Seventh Plenary Session of the Eighth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China.
At the banquet, Shui Jing was pleasantly surprised to meet the *** she had admired for a long time. Coincidentally, ** sat next to Shui Jing. Friend Chen Zhengren noticed Shui Jing's awe of ***, so he introduced her to the chairman.
When Shui Jing saw her idol in her heart, she was very excited, but in front of the chairman, she was a little nervous. * Seeing Shui Jing standing in front of him, he smiled slightly, took the initiative to reach out and gently hold her hand, and then invited her to sit next to him.
The cordial *** took the initiative to talk to Shui Jing: "Comrade Shui Jing, do you know? Hunan people and Jiangxi people are relatives, and Hunan people call Jiangxi people old watches. I recently flipped through the history books and found that during the Jin Dynasty, a hero named Xu Zhenjun appeared in Jiangxi, and he had an evil dragon in Hunan.
Do you know anything about the story? The chairman's words eased Shui Jing's tension somewhat, and she thought for a moment and replied, "I seem to have heard this story."
It is said that there is a dry well in front of the Wanshou Palace in Xishan, Nanchang, Jiangxi, and the locals say that Xu Zhenjun locked the evil dragon in the well. ”
After hearing this, Grandpa Mao laughed heartily: "I know that you Jiangxi people are terrible!" In this conversation, Grandpa Mao's humor made Shui Jing relax and paved the way for Shui Jing's free speech next time.
During the meeting, Yang Shangkui and his wife met Grandpa Mao again. After a few small talks, Grandpa Mao became interested in Shui Jing's name. Shui Jing, surname Shui, name Jing, water surname is very rare, and even fewer people know the combination of water and Jing to form a name.
Grandpa Mao was a little curious, so he asked Shui Jing: "Comrade Shui Jing, your surname is Shui, why did you take the word Jing?" Water is flowing, how can it be paired with static characters?
The name "water quiet" is not very good, it violates the dialectic, water is flowing, not static. You see, the Yangtze River is rolling eastward, and the Yellow River is also rushing forward, these are all dynamic. ”
Shui Jing was taken aback by Grandpa Mao's question, but then explained wittily: "Grandpa Mao, have you heard of the Soviet Union's ** "Quiet Don River"? The Don River described there is stationary, which is different from the rushing water of the Yellow River that you just mentioned. ”
**Inspired by Shui Jing's words, he nodded again and again and said, "You are very right, Comrade Shui Jing." If there is no wind blowing, the West Lake is also stationary. Shui Jing continued: "Isn't it said in the "Theory of Contradiction" that movement and stillness complement each other, and where there is movement, there is stillness, and the two are opposed to each other.
We must not only see the stillness of the water, but also its flow. Only by understanding water in its entirety can we truly understand it. Therefore, my name, Shui Jing, does not violate dialectics. ”
After listening, he had to admit Shui Jing's point of view, he smiled and said: "You have a point, it seems that my "Theory of Contradiction" still needs to be studied in depth!" ”
We were drawn to the thoughtful discussion, and through this conversation, we not only saw his seriousness in important matters such as politics and military affairs, but also appreciated his profound knowledge, astute intellect and witty conversation.
Our *** is not only a great leader, but also a flesh-and-blood person full of charisma. His glorious personality will always illuminate our way forward!
