Although the leader's concept of governing the country includes many contents, sometimes it can be expressed to people, and it can be understood by people with just a simple sentence.
Before the reform and opening up, the always approachable comrade *** asked him in a chat with the doctor:"Chief, what are you going to do with us after we are discharged from the hospital? ”
Obviously, this sentence is to ask how Deng Gong intends to lead the people of the whole country to build the country next.
Facing the doctor's question, Deng Gong replied with a smile on his face"I'm still like that. ”
So, what exactly does "that set" mean? Why was Deng Gong hospitalized at that time? What happened to the "that set" that Deng Gong said?
In December 1976, a special patient suddenly arrived at the General Hospital of the People's Liberation Army in Beijing, and Liu Yantang, a chief physician in the south building of the hospital, was resting at home, when he suddenly received an emergency from the hospital and ordered him to go to the hospital immediately to standby.
After arriving at the hospital, Liu Yantang found that the person who came to see him was Comrade ***, who was the first chief.
Beijing PLA General Hospital, also known as 301 Hospital, is the top medical hospital in the PLA team, not only carrying the mission of saving lives for the PLA team, but also undertaking the important task of ensuring the health of the best leaders.
At that time, when Deng Gong came to the hospital, although he was sick, he was in good spirits, from getting off the bus to walking to the outpatient room, he walked over the whole process accompanied by doctors and family members, although his face showed a little pain, and he didn't talk much to the people around him, but he maintained his composure and calm as an old revolutionary throughout the whole process.
After some careful examination, the doctor Liu Yantang and several other experts discussed and determined ***'s condition.
Because he is busy with work all the year round and often sedentary to read documents, Deng Gong's prostate has a lot of inflammation, and if this disease wants to be completely successful, only surgery is the best way, which is also the best advice given to Deng Gong by the hospital.
After the doctor explained the diagnosis report to Deng Gong, Deng Gong said without hesitation: "Then do the operation, treat it how it should be treated, you don't have any worries." ”
Deng Gong gave the hospital and the doctor complete trust, and after reporting ** and getting approval, the hospital began to prepare for the operation for Deng Gong.
Because it was an operation for a ** leader like Deng Gong, the doctor and ** originally had a lot of psychological pressure.
Deng Gong understands the psychological condition of the doctors and the ** very well, not only did he not show any uneasiness, but also tried his best to help the doctors and the ** calm down the nervous mood.
He told the doctor and ** that he believed in everyone unconditionally, so that everyone could rest assured that even if there was anything wrong with the operation, he would not blame them.
The doctors and ** present were very moved, and among the many patients they met, very few patients said these words to them.
The operation was performed by the chief physician Liu Yantang, and two other experienced directors of related departments were assisted, both of whom were Liu Yantang's teachers and were very confident in Liu Yantang's surgical level.
Everyone in the operating room was very energetic, for fear of a little mistake, and when preparing for the operation, there was only the sound of various medical instruments in the entire operating room, and the atmosphere seemed a little solemn and tense.
Before the operation began, the doctor specifically asked Deng Gong if there was anything uncomfortable, and Deng Gong was very energetic and calmly said to everyone: "I'm fine, you can rest assured that the operation will be done." ”
Deng Gong's words were like a reassuring pill, which made everyone's hearts relax a lot, and the atmosphere in the entire operating room was no longer so tense.
According to Deng Gong's request, the anesthesiologist only did local anesthesia, and Deng Gong did not want to sleep during the operation, so he did not take sleeping pills, and Deng Gong still maintained the habit of the revolutionary years, and kept awake as much as possible no matter what the circumstances.
During the operation, the doctor and ** with a relaxed attitude, close cooperation, smooth movement, during the operation, the doctor asked Deng Gong many times if there was anything uncomfortable, Deng Gong replied calmly every time: "I'm fine, you can rest assured of the operation." ”
Doctor Liu Yantang later recalled and said with emotion
Deng Gong himself has already borne a lot of pain because of the disease, but when he is examined and operated, he can still think of us and think about us. ”
He knows that we will be a little nervous when facing a ** leader like him, so he always uses words to calm our emotions and make us relax. ”
Whenever we hear Deng Gong's comfort, our nervous mood will be relaxed, so we can always give the best level to do examinations and surgeries. ”
The surgery was a great success, and Deng Gong recuperated in the ward, but the after-effects of the surgery sometimes caused pain, which the doctor knew could sometimes be very intense and very uncomfortable for the patient.
However, Deng Gong never showed pain because of the pain, let alone wailed and groaned, and when the pain hit, he just endured it silently, and his perseverance as a revolutionary made the medical staff deeply admired.
After the operation, Deng Gong's body recovered smoothly, and with the efforts of the doctor and ** and the cooperation of Deng Gong, the disease was cured without any new problems.
In the process of Deng Gong's hospitalization and recovery, Liu Yantang sometimes chatted with Deng Gong in order to help Deng Gong relax as much as possible during the ** process, which also passed the time for Deng Gong to accept **.
At that time, ** was already being discussed, and Deng Gong was elected as the core cadre of the new leadership collective, and Deng Gong was about to start leading the ** work after he was discharged from the hospital, Liu Yantang asked Deng Gong when chatting: "Chief, how will you lead us when you are discharged from the hospital in the future?" ”
After hearing Liu Yantang's question, Deng Gong, who was sitting on the hospital bed, replied heartily: "I'm still the same." ”
Deng Gong's "that set" mainly refers to reform.
After Deng Gong was transferred back to Beijing from Jiangxi in 1972, he served as the first vice premier and vice chairman of the Communist Party of China in 1975, and began to lead the work in an all-round way.
At that time, Deng Gong put forward the goals of carrying out economic reform, vigorously developing productive forces, and further realizing socialist modernization, which was approved by many cadres and the people of the whole country.
However, due to various reasons, Deng Gong had to resign from his leadership position in the spring of 1976 the following year and live in a courtyard near Tiananmen Square.
In October of the same year, the country ushered in a new political situation, and many people agreed to ask Deng Gong to return to the core of leadership, and began to discuss this matter, and Deng Gong is expected to re-preside over the work soon.
At this time, Deng Gong had prostate problems in December of 1976 and was admitted to 301 Hospital.
Under the careful care of medical staff and his family, Deng Gong recovered and was discharged from the hospital, and after a few months, he regained his leadership position, took on the heavy responsibility of building the country, and began to use what he called "that set" to inject new development vitality into the country.
First, the Third Plenary Session of the 11 th CPC Central Committee in 1978 established a development line centered on economic construction, and then put forward the slogan of "development is the last word."
At the end of 1978, the farmland of Xiaogang Village in Fengyang, Anhui Province began to be contracted to households, and the road of reform began to start, and in 1979, it was decided to set up special economic zones in Shantou, Zhuhai and Shenzhen, Guangdong.
The introduction of foreign capital and foreign businessmen has poured into the special economic zones and into the whole of China, injecting fresh vitality into the economic development of the whole country.
In just two years, the spring breeze of "internal reform and opening up to the outside world" has quickly blown all over the land of China, and he has brought a new take-off to China's modernization drive with what he called "that set."
In the process of the country's rapid change under the trend of economic development, Deng Gong worked for the country for another 12 years as a leader from 1977 to 1989.
Although he did not suffer any major health problems, he retired in 1989 because he was too old to take on heavy leadership positions.
After retiring, Deng Gong did not make any requests to the organization, but lived in a courtyard in Jingshan Back Street in Beijing in a low-key manner, lived a life in his old age accompanied by his family, and still maintained a regular life and rest habits.
I eat breakfast and go to bed on time every day, I take a walk in the morning, and the rest of the time I read a book or a doctor's examination in the study.
There were also times when Deng Guild could swim and play bridge, two sports that he kept for many years, and they were also the two criteria he used to measure his health.
He said to men:
"As long as I can play bridge, it means that my mind is still clear, and as long as I can swim, it means that I am still healthy enough. ”Because of his good living habits, Deng Gong did not have many of the various diseases of the elderly after retirement, but only Parkinson's syndrome that could not be used has plagued the elderly more and more.
Parkinson's disease is a neurological disease that can cause loss of limb control such as hand tremors, and can lead to dyspnea and swallowing.
As Deng Gong got older, Parkinson's disease became more and more troubled for him, at first only occasional seizures had a little impact on his life, and then he often had a lack of physical strength when swimming, and then it became more and more difficult to hold cards when playing bridge.
For the sake of Deng Gong's health, the doctor advised him to quit smoking and drinking, and he has been smoking for many years.
For ordinary people, it is difficult to quit smoking easily after many years, but since I decided to quit smoking, I basically didn't spend any energy, and I stopped smoking if I didn't smoke, and I quickly quit smoking, which surprised and admired my family and medical staff.
When swimming and playing bridge can no longer be done, Deng Gong is still optimistic about life, in order to maintain his health as much as possible, he does some aerobics every day, and insists on walking, and the doctor regularly does physical examinations for Deng Gong.
But all this did not stop the Parkinson's syndrome from becoming more and more severe in Deng Gong until the end of 1996.
On December 12, 1996, Deng Gong got up on time as usual and walked to the bathroom to wash up, when suddenly he felt difficulty breathing, and his family and medical staff immediately took Deng Gong to the hospital in a car.
During this ten-kilometer journey, there were not many cars on the road at that time, and the car escorting Deng Gong was unimpeded all the way, and the driving time was not long, but for Zhuo Lin at that time, she was anxious all the way.
Deng Gong was admitted to the south ward building of 301 Hospital again, and this time the situation was different from the last time.
After careful examination, the doctor found that Deng Gong had no other problems in his body except for Parkinsonism, which had existed for more than ten years, and there were no further problems with the prostate after the last operation**, and the diabetes that is common in the elderly did not appear in Deng Gong.
Because of the increasing frequency of Parkinson's disease**, Deng Gong has had difficulty breathing many times, and every time the doctor and ** will go through a fierce rescue to stabilize the condition, but Deng Gong's body will inevitably become weaker and weaker.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year in 1997, the sound of firecrackers outside came and went, but the hospital ward was silent.
On the one hand, it is to avoid affecting Deng Gong's rest, and on the other hand, everyone is silently looking forward to it in their hearts that Deng Gong can survive this winter and usher in the spring of the new year with everyone.
To everyone's sadness, Deng Gong passed away at the thirteenth day of the first month at the age of 93 after persisting for another 12 days.
According to Deng Gong's last wishes, ** did not hold a farewell ceremony for his body, and after his wife Zhuo Lin donated his cornea, she took a plane to scatter his ashes into the sea, and the secretary took his clothes to the boiler room and burned them.
This great revolutionary did not leave any material assets for himself and his family to enjoy except for the immeasurable well-being of the people and a precious spiritual wealth for the world during his lifetime.
Salute to the great proletarian revolutionaries and builders of socialism!
