year, Zhou Haiying asked for help***
Accurate and Unique", it tells that Feng Xuefeng, secretary of the Left Union Cultural Committee, once exchanged Lu Xun's evaluation with ***. Feng Xuefeng said that Lu Xun thought that Lu Xun's poems had the spirit of "mountain king", which made him very happy and expressed his admiration for Lu Xun.
Although he had never met Lu Xun, he had always admired Lu Xun very much. In a conversation with Feng Xuefeng, ** regretted that although he had seen many literary figures during the May Fourth period, the only one he did not see was Lu Xun.
On October 19, 1936, the great writer Mr. Lu Xun died of illness. The Communist Party of China and the Chinese Soviet Republic deeply mourned Mr. Lu Xun, and published articles such as "Letter to the Compatriots of the Whole Country and the World for the Mourning of Mr. Lu Xun", "Message of Condolence to Ms. Xu Guangping", "To Commemorate and Commemorate Mr. Lu Xun to the Chinese Kuomintang Committee and the Kuomintang in Nanjing" and other articles to express their deep nostalgia for him.
In 1938, Lu Xun Art Institute was established in Yan'an, and the chairman personally inscribed the name and motto of the school. In the same year, Xiao Jun, who learned of Lu Xun from Ding Ling, came to Yan'an, he personally visited the guest house, and in less than a year after that, he sent 10 letters to Xiao Jun, showing his love for Xiao Jun.
In the same year, Shaanbei Public School held a conference to commemorate the first anniversary of Lu Xun's death, and ** delivered a speech at the meeting, speaking highly of Lu Xun and calling him "China's first-class saint".
In January 1940, Chairman ** published an article entitled "On New Democracy" in the inaugural issue of the magazine "Chinese Culture", in which he used three "great" and "most" in a row to evaluate Lu Xun.
He praised Lu Xun as "a great writer, a great thinker, and a great revolutionary," and said that "Lu Xun's bones are the hardest, he has 'the most precious character,' and he is 'the most correct, brave, resolute, loyal, and enthusiastic unprecedented national hero.'"
**The chairman's two favorite poems of Lu Xun are "Heng Mei coldly pointed at a thousand people, bowing his head and being willing to be a son of a cow". At the Yan'an Symposium on Literature and Art in May 1942, he introduced these two poems to everyone and asked everyone to use these two poems as mottos.
Lao Qin mentioned in an article that on November 28, 1958, Chairman ** went to Wuchang to preside over the Sixth Plenary Session of the Eighth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. During this period, he excerpted these two poems and presented them to the red-line girl who came to Wuchang with the Guangdong Cantonese Opera Troupe to perform.
**The chairman is very fond of reading Lu Xun's works, on January 12, 1938, he wrote a letter to Ai Siqi, who was the chief teacher of the Yan'an Anti-Japanese Military and Political University, to complain, saying: "I don't have "Lu Xun's Complete Works", there are a few zeros, "Morning Flowers and Sunset" are also included, and they are all gone. ”
In August 1938, China published the 20-volume Complete Works of Lu Xun for the first time. * The chairman is infinitely happy, he got a set through the secret organization of the CCP in Shanghai, and he regards it as a treasure, and he takes it with him no matter whether he transfers or marches to **.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, when the chairman placed this set of "The Complete Works of Lu Xun" in the study room of Zhongnanhai, he said with emotion: "It is not easy to preserve this set of books!" ”
In December 1949, the chairman visited the Soviet Union for the first time, and he also brought several books of Lu Xun with him, and he read them whenever he had time. Sometimes read about forgetting to eat and sleep.
The staff didn't understand, so he explained: "I love to read Lu Xun's books, and Lu Xun's heart and I are closely connected." On March 8, 1957, the chairman of the ** talked about what Lu Xun would be like if he was still alive in the "Conversation with Representatives of the Literary and Art Circles", he said: "If Lu Xun is alive, he is probably the chairman of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, and he can write essays, he is very brave, and as soon as he writes essays, he can solve problems." ”
On July 8, 1966, Chairman ** also said in a letter to his family: "I have the same heart with Lu Xun. I like how frank he is. ”
Since Lu Xun's death on October 19, 1936, Xu Guangping has firmly made it his mission to collect, protect and publish Lu Xun's works. By 1966, she had collected 1,054 manuscripts of Lu Xun's letters and 1,524 pages, and these precious spiritual treasures are undoubtedly the treasures of the Chinese nation.
However, these manuscripts contain Lu Xun's critique of Sai Jinhua, Mr. Dick, and a traitor named Yao who defected to Xu Enzeng, an agent of the Central Union. These critics are disturbed and want the manuscripts to be destroyed as soon as possible.
In the spring of 1967, they sent men to snatch all the manuscripts of letters from four large wooden boxes. Xu Guangping was devastated and grief-stricken, and although she tried to negotiate several times, to no avail, she died of illness on March 3, 1968.
Zhou Haiying inherited the legacy of his mother Xu Guangping, and worked tirelessly to recover Lu Xun's manuscripts and letters. He once presented a distress letter to Prime Minister ***, which was highly valued.
Subsequently, a meeting was held in Diaoyutai and the task of recovering Lu Xun's manuscripts and letters was handed over to Fu Chongbi, commander of the Beijing Garrison. Fu Chongbi was one of the "Top Ten Tiger Generals" of the Volunteer Army, known for his fierce fighting style and outstanding military talent.
However, he was removed from office while dealing with the matter and was imprisoned for seven years. Although *** said that he could not do anything about this matter, the comeback of *** in 1975 brought hope to Zhou Haiying.
Hu Qiaomu, who used to be the secretary of ***, gave Zhou Haiying advice and asked him to write a letter to *** for help, and *** forwarded it. Zhou Haiying followed Hu Qiaomu's suggestion and wrote this letter on October 28, 1975, and asked Hu Qiaomu to forward it
In the letter, Zhou Haiying concisely explained the situation and asked for ***'s help. Although the chairman's eyes are not very good now, Hu Qiaomu reminded Zhou Haiying that the chairman can read some words now, so the handwriting of the letter should be clear and large.
Zhou Haiying's letter showed extraordinary wisdom, he clung to a sentence that *** once said - "I and Lu Xun's heart is connected", and expressed in the letter: "You and Lu Xun's heart is connected."
When I heard you in 1971, I was thrilled because I felt the same way from my father. He expressed his hope that Lu Xun's manuscripts and letters would be recovered and handed over to the Cultural Relics Bureau for all photocopies and publication for researchers.
At the same time, he also hoped that the Publishing Bureau would compile and print a comprehensive and accurate collection of Lu Xun's letters for the majority of readers to read.
On November 1, 1975, the chairman issued a letter agreeing with Comrade Zhou Haiying's opinion, and printed and distributed Zhou's letter to the Politburo, discussed it once, and implemented it immediately. The problem is solved.
In 1976, on the occasion of the 95th anniversary of Lu Xun's birth, a new edition of Lu Xun's Letters, containing 1,381 letters, was successfully published.
