In 1957, Zang Kejia changed Spring Snow in Qinyuan to one word, and Chairman Mao agreed very much

It is a great military strategist and politician in our country, this is everyone's impression of *** in the early years, except for the guards and people around him who are close to him, few people know that *** is outstanding. It wasn't until later's poetry was passed on by word of mouth that people saw ***'s attainments in poetry!

Zang Kejia is known as one of the founders of the new poetry of Chinese realism, and his works "What Mr. Wen Yiduo Said and Do" and "Some People" have been included in middle school Chinese textbooks, and he is quite effective in new songs.

Although "Qinyuan Spring Snow" was improvised during the Anti-Japanese War, it was recognized and praised at home and abroad, and even now it is widely circulated and catchy.

"Life is always chasing phantom light, but whoever sees phantom light as phantom light will sink into a bottomless sea of suffering. ”

can write such a sentence that faces reality and is full of grief, not only because of the diligence and hard work of the Zang Ke family, but also because of his childhood edification and the help of friends. Zang Ke's family is not from a prominent backgroundWhen he was a child, he lived in Zangjiazhuang, Zhucheng, Shandong, on this mountain, the time recorded the story of Qin Shi Huang's eastern tour and Su Shi's hunting in Changzhou.

Zang Ke's father, grandmother, uncle and even the tenant six mechanics in the family all love poetry and often recite it, the father's sad and sad tone and emotions, and the grandmother's tears moved by love poemsThe taciturn but suddenly affectionate and loud recitation of the uncle, and the six mechanics who came back to tell what they saw and heard in an emotional tone, all gave the Zang Kejia poets the soul and poetic heart, and laid a solid foundation for future literary creation.

After growing up and entering a private school to begin systematic learning, the edification and literary talent of childhood began to show among peers, not only at a young age, but also faster than other children, but also can recite the full text of the long ancient poem "Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng" word for word. Even during the "May Fourth Movement", following the new trend of thought, he called on his classmates to go to the streets under the banner to promote the spirit of May FourthAt a young age, he has literature and country in his heart

In 1923, Zang Kejia entered his middle school life, which can be said to be the era of imitation of Zang Kejia's writing. The political instability in middle school led him to see more types of articles and poetry collections, about people's lives, political positions, rebellion against old customs, etc., and the itchy Zang Kejia began to try to describe and create by himself.

Whenever he saw a new collection of poems or a new newspaper from other classmates, he always tried his best to borrow and read it, and also tried to write it himself, compare it with other people's articles, and imitate their writing structure and ideas to describe themAccording to Zang Kejia's own words, during that period, he always wanted to run behind others, but he threw himself away.

After passing the examination and being admitted to National Qingdao University, Zang Kejia learned and communicated with Mr. Wen Yiduo, Mr. Lao She and others, especially from Mr. Wen Yiduo to learn words and sentences, how to use rhetoric, and how to expand imagination.

This period was the creative period of Zang Kejia, he considered the words, and every word had to be scrutinized for a long time, considering the effect of different words and the charm of the articleWhether it is writing an article or writing a poem, words are like chess pieces, and to complete the entire chess game, we must start from the details and plan the layout before it can finally take shape.

Zang Kejia's first collection of poems was published in 1933, and the name of one of the poetry collections, "Imprint", was used as the name of the poetry collection, and later Mr. Wen Yiduo wrote a preface and successfully printed it. After the successful printing of 400 copies, Mr. Lao She, Mr. Mao Dun and others all issued book reviews for "Imprint" on the news, and Zang Kejia and 55 other comrades became "newcomers in the literary world in 1933" and won the title of "young poet".

His poetry collections and works reflect more of the tribulations of the people at the bottom, and he writes "his own poems".Feel life with a keen sense of touch, gain insight into the world with sharp eyes, write sincere emotions with clear writing, open the brain's thinking and divergent space with unrestrained brushstrokes, reveal the small things of life, macro in the pattern, and be cautious and subtle in the pen.

Zang Kejia's high requirements and standards for himself, as well as his perception of living at the bottom for a long time, are the nutrients of his creation, and the turbulence of the political situation and the hardships of life also make him pay attention to current affairs and the overall situation of the country. In 1945, he participated in the symposium on the negotiation of Chongqing, and after the meeting, he published an ode to this great man who ran for the people.

Since meeting *** for the first time, Zang Kejia has a deeper understanding of ***, and also pays more attention and love. In 1956, Zang Kejia served as the editor-in-chief of the "Poetry Magazine", which was created, and wanted to add first-class poems to improve the quality of the journal when compiling the manuscript.

Qinyuan Spring Snow was completed at the critical juncture of the life and death of the Chinese nation, ** personally deployed and commanded the Red Army to cross the Yellow River in northern Shaanxi, hoping to negotiate an armistice and peace, and calling on the people to make a strong contributionThere is money to pay, there are guns to shoot, the whole people resist the war, oppose Japanese imperialism. When I was in Yuanjiagou, it happened to be snowy, and at a glance, the whole world was covered in silver and snow, and I improvised a poem that has been praised to this day.

The scenery of the northern country, thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow drifting. Looking inside and outside the Great Wall, only reckless; Up and down the river, suddenly lost and surging. The mountain dance silver snake, the original Chi wax elephant, wants to be higher than the heavenly public test. It must be a sunny day, and look at the red dress, which is extraordinarily enchanting.

There are so many delicate rivers and mountains, leading countless heroes to bend their waists. Pity the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, slightly lose the literary style; Tang Zong and Song Zu, slightly inferior**. A generation of Tianjiao, Genghis Khan, only knows how to bend the bow and shoot the eagle. The past, the number of romantic figures, but also look at the present.

Standing on the top of the mountain, looking from afar, the north of the Yellow River is covered with snow and ice, just like the domestic situation, in the face of foreign invaders, bravely resisting, difficult to attack, I don't know when it will endBut as long as we are united, the people are there, the people are there, the people are there, and we are united to overcome the difficulties, we can achieve victory and usher in a new era of spring flowers, how can we not dare to fight? There were many heroes and heroes in ancient times, and the current War of Resistance naturally has a way to solve the current situation.

During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, our party made correct policy decisions, not only leading the people to successfully resist imperialist aggression, but also making outstanding contributions to the world's anti-fascist struggle. After the end of the Anti-Japanese War, Chiang Kai-shek launched a civil war, and after the Liaoshen Campaign, Huaihai, and Pingjin, we destroyed 1.56 million troops and key positions of the Nationalist Army, laying the foundation for the liberation of the whole country. All these exploits and hard work, the Zang Ke family saw in their eyes and remembered in their hearts.

Now, we have carried out three major transformations for socialist construction, and now we are about to successfully complete and usher in the next stage. Moreover, this poem has been circulated at home and abroad, and is even regarded as a model of Chinese poetry by foreign countries, and is also called a peerless masterpiece by the poet Liu Yazi that far surpasses Su Shi and Xin Qiji.

Zang Kejia thought about the first contact scene with ***, although the chairman is in a high position, he is approachable, loves poetry, and has to answer questions, has a strong belief and confidence in national independence and national self-improvement, and must be negotiable about publishing poetry. Therefore, the drafting team carefully sorted out the eight poems collected, and wrote a letter to ask for permission and reply.

The letter not only talked about the current situation in the poetry world, but also stated that although these eight poems were widely circulated, they were not officially published and there were typos, and they hoped to be officially published, with the collected poems. Two months later, the editorial team received a letter and handwritten poems, and Zang Kejia repeatedly read and pondered the letter, and carefully and persistently studied each textual expressionHe believes that this letter not only shows support for the publication and development of the "Poetry Journal", but also gives a new direction of development, and encourages young people to open their minds by advancing old and new problems simultaneously.

Zang Kejia is such a scholar who chews words and has a high respect for literature and poetry. In the repeated speculation of ***'s letters and poems, he also found a word that did not seem so appropriate. That is the "wax" in "Mountain Dance Silver Snake, the original Chi wax elephant, and want to compare with the heavenly princess".He consulted a lot of information and figured out the ** of "wax elephant", the name of ancient Cambodia was "Zhenla", which used to be a place rich in elephants, but even so, he still wanted to understand the intention of choosing this word.

Coincidentally, the opportunity came two days later, ** to make an appointment to meet the editor-in-chief to talk. Zang Kejia is excited and nervous, excited that he can meet with the great leader again, and can consult poetry and literature again with this "poet", and what to do if he says the wrong thing at that time, and he has been thinking about what to say when he sees the chairman, what topics to talk about, and whether to ask *** for advice on the use ......of the word "wax".

The reception room at three o'clock in the afternoon of this day was really different from usual, accompanied by the sound of "tapping" and "tapping" coming from behind the screen, like stepping on the heart of the Zang Ke family, "knock knock" "knock knock", quickly stood up and turned his face, sure enough, it was a dignified but kind and kind ***

After a brief meeting and inquiry, ** naturally took out a cigarette from his pocket and said with a smile: "I'm a big smoker, so let's just order it at will, have one?" ”

Zang Kejia had no choice but to explain his thoughts, thinking that the "wax elephant" and the "silver snake" are not only more neatly processed, but also more able to highlight the cold scenery of the goose feathers and heavy snow in the north, and the pride and ambition of the following are integrated, more charming, better than the "wax elephant".

**After listening, he praised again and again, and immediately agreed to Zang Kejia's suggestion.

Zang Kejia was a little surprised, but more importantly, he felt very cordial, as the chairman, he was willing to listen to the revisions of a small album, and make changes, without any official frames, and the communication was like a friend, and his heart was warm.

Later, when it came to the founding of the "Poetry Magazine", Zang Kejia also actively solicited more copies, truthfully reporting to the chairman the number of major publications, "Poetry Magazine" can only issue 10,000 copies, but other publications are several times or even 20 times that of "Poetry Magazine", although there is a shortage of paper, but it is not possible to favor one over the other, so he asked for an increase in the number, and wanted to print 50,000 copies in line with other publications.

**After agreeingZang Kejia further asked for *** face to faceI have to say that Zang Kejia has never been sloppy in the distribution and publicity of literary creation and poetry, which is in awe of the cause he loves, and also promotes the development of domestic literature.

This conversation. Not only talked about the relevant issues of the "Poetry Magazine", but also involved the relevant literary fields and domestic trends of thought, according to Zang Kejia, since Yi Niantang talked about poetry, I regarded him as a member of our poetry familyWe are all friends of poetry, and every time we think of the heavy snow and the words of that day, there is a power of support, as if the thread of "poetry" connects us.

Later, Zang Kejia and *** wrote letters many times to communicate about poetry, **Although they were very busy, they also had correspondence with Zang Kejia, after all,In the life of the world, there is still a "poem" hidden in my heart.

In 1988, Shi Zhongcai, a member of the Chinese Couplet Society, prepared the book "Appreciation of Contemporary Hundred Couplets", and wanted to include a couplet written by Zang Kejia for Li Qingzhao hanging in Baotuquan Park in Jinan City, but felt that the "generation" and "carrying" in the upper and lower couplets were all voices, and the sound and rhyme were not worked. So I discussed with the 83-year-old Zang Kejia to revise the letter, and finally will"Carry".Instead"Autumn".Word.

In the life of the Zang Ke family, they have experienced the hardships and toils of the people at the bottom, and they have also experienced many changes in the political situationIt is his lifelong pursuit and belief to use language to establish a life for the people, to use words to speak for thoughts, and to be meticulous in learning.
