"Ordinary people's side" has always been the most confusing point when I read Mr. Qian Xuesen's story. Almost all the stories are trying to tell people that this "great scientist" is not an ordinary person. It seems that he was born a genius. All his life, he has only the country in his heart. There are no ordinary stories in him, only great deeds. This never convinced me: he is also a man with a wife and children. How did he treat them? What influence did they give him? He came from that special era, did he make any mistakes that he regretted, and what kind of psychological struggle did he have?
Of course, this is different from the celebrity privacy that entertainment news is used to hype, and it is not as boring as "great men catch lice". The core of "restoring the side of ordinary people" is comprehensive truth, without whitewashing and avoidance.
It is said that this book was approved by Qian Yonggang, the son of Qian Xuesen. Presumably, he saw a relatively real father, a relatively pure scientist Qian Xuesen, from the "side of ordinary people".
Mr. Qian Xuesen is a great scientist, but he also has an ordinary side in his life and political movement. The greatness of the cause, after all, can not wash away the history branded by the times and life on a person. Since you are alone in all the worlds, how can you transcend the three realms? Qian Xuesen didn't live in a vacuum. After returning home, he was in a "productive year" of domestic political movement, and he could not escape "passing over that period of history": he posted posters with his secretary and wrote articles in party newspapers to demonstrate the possibility of "10,000 kilograms per mu" ... Ye Yonglie's book did not evade these so-called "sensitive issues", which is precisely its value.
Historical issues, history has its own public opinion. As narrators, we don't have to hide. In fact, we publicize these typical figures, on the one hand, to make people remember their contributions, and on the other hand, to inspire future generations to learn from them. If you daub the "God-like aura" at will, it will inevitably make people stay away from it, daunting and even see through the hypocritical side of history. In the end, it can only be that great men are alone in the shrine, while ordinary people are opposed to ordinary people. What's the point of promoting them?
But there seems to be a certain tradition when we portray the character "Gao Daquan".
Not long ago, when I was interviewing in Daqing Oilfield, I heard a story. Wang Qimin, the chief engineer of Daqing Oilfield, is known as the "Iron Man in the New Period". The media is overwhelming, and Wang Qimin's heroic deeds are widely known. But this somewhat embarrassed ironman, who didn't know the "tall Wang Qimin" in the report. The unit organized the study of "Wang Qimin Spirit", and Wang Qimin also participated, so he had to say "We studied Wang Qimin together in the newspaper" to cover up his embarrassment.
And the list goes on.
Of course, the deceased at least avoided this embarrassment. He has lost the uncomfortable feeling of "seeing others with special respect" when facing his colleagues and relatives around him, but future generations still have to face it, right? When we always like to portray a typical character with the image of "Gao Daquan" and give them a "divine aura", it will not only keep readers and audiences at a distance, but also make people familiar with them doubt history. Then where can our faith be shaped?
