"A bright moon floats in the vast and deep night sky like the sea. The melting moonlight caresses the silent mountains, noisy rivers and vibrant lotus ponds."
Dear literary friends, colleagues, and disciples of the "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" literary club, do you still remember the two sentences above written in poetic language? These are the first two sentences of the "message" given by Mr. Liu Zhongwei, the general consultant of our literary society, to the first issue of the journal "Xi Yu Ting He". At this moment, as the founder of the literary club, I am standing by the lotus pond under the moonlight, listening to the sounds of frogs and insects, and watching the little fish swimming happily in the water. I raised my head to look at the bright moon, but when I lowered my head, I was thinking not of my hometown, but of you!
Nowadays, colleagues and teachers are far apart, and disciples are also going their separate ways. I miss you, I miss you! I miss those years of making friends through literature and helping each other; I miss those days of communicating with each other, helping each other, and celebrating joy. And now, I am standing by the lotus pond, under the moonlight, and I can only use this bright moon to send my distant blessings! I send you my deepest thoughts!
Do you still remember the grand scene of the founding meeting of our "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" literary club? A huge bright red banner hung across the gymnasium, with the words "Celebrating the founding meeting of the "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" Literary Club" shining brightly. The speeches of the general counsel and school leaders were inspiring; the speeches of consultants and instructors Gan Ailian and Liu Xiujuan were inspiring; and the passionate speech of president Zhou Yan was exciting. From that day on, we began our literary dream; we began our arduous journey on the road of literature. To this end, you have all put in hard sweat and hard work. I said loudly to the lotus pond, and I shouted to the bright moon: Thank you! Thank you for your strong support and selfless dedication to "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond"! Literature will never forget you!
Teacher Wang Dongsheng, do you still remember the scene when I urged you to write a manuscript? I pressed too hard, and you said you were afraid of seeing me. Yes, I know that you are busy teaching, but I still put extra burden on you, but you still submitted high-quality articles as scheduled. I am sorry and thank you!
Teacher Gan Ailian, I remember your article "Writing as You Want" the most. You provided ideas and pointed out the direction for students' writing. You are worthy of being an excellent Chinese teacher!
Teacher Wu Zhiwei, you will not forget the time when I asked you to write the "Preface" manuscript, right? You walk in front and I follow in the rear. It doesn’t matter whether you are busy or not. You are just begging for nothing. When you handed the manuscript to me, it made my heart surge and tears well up in my eyes after reading it!
Teacher Yang Wujian, I am very grateful to you for training two disciples for the literary club - two young girls, Lai Guijun and Ling Yingxiang. He won the first prize in the first "Houde Cup" composition contest held by the school and became famous ever since. I believe that the seeds of literature will take root, sprout, bloom and bear fruitful fruits in their hearts!
Teacher Lai Yanning’s novels are unique in the literary society, and the characters are portrayed one after another. It has a wonderful storyline, the language is close to life, and it is humorous.
Teachers Liu Xiujuan, Chen Yuanhui, Zeng Yan, Tan Xiangping, etc., when I receive the masterpieces you wrote with your heart, do you know how I feel in my heart? It's appreciation, admiration, and gratitude all intertwined. I haven’t said thank you to you yet, so I’ll make it up to you today!
I will never forget Teacher Zheng Liping. When she got the magazine "Dry Rain Listening to Lotus" and saw her essay "Aria of Life" published in it, he took my arm and kept stroking it. Shaking and saying: "Thank you! Thank you! I will continue to write in the future and strive to have my articles in every issue" with such joy and excitement.
I will also never forget Zhu Shuoyu from Grade 2 (7) class. The teacher guided her to write an article "Big Fruit Basket", which was published in the second issue of "Dry Rain Listening to Lotus" magazine, and it has been published ever since. Not acceptable, often send me articles via QQ.
Do you still remember Lin Haiyan, a classmate in Grade 1 (5)? I asked you to revise your modern poem "Miss You So Much". Within a few days, your poem "Miss You So Much" has been replaced by "Missed Beauty". Later, "Missed Beauty" was published in the third issue of the journal "Xi Yu Ting He".
When I handed the printed journal to you, your eyes widened and you asked me loudly in confusion and surprise: "Is this true?"
Huang, who is studying at university in Xi'an Classmate Min, do you still keep the literary club chapter "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" and the journal "Dry Rain Listening to the Lotus" I gave you? The teacher knows that you are very talented and can write good articles. If it weren't for the fact that you were a senior in high school, you would be the president! Remember to go home often and take a look, the campus looks different now!
Classmate Hu Qianyu, where are you? Your novel series "Far, Far Away" is very popular among readers! I believe you will not forget the short year we worked together in the literary club! Just send the teacher a text message when you hear the teacher's call.
My lovely chief designer Guo Liusuo, editor-in-chief Zhou Yan, proofreaders Yu Lu, Yuan Wangming... You should remember most how many Sundays we sacrificed and how much we endured in order to publish the journal "Dry Rain Listening to Lotus" night. When the exquisite issue was presented to the readers, at the celebration that night, we ate watermelon, drank orange juice, laughed and sang. That scene and laughter still come to mind and echo in our ears.
Speaking of the journal "Dry Rain Listening to Lotus", I can't help but mention Teacher Li Jinshan. The beautiful words "Dry Rain Listening to Lotus" add a lot of color to the journal.
There are also some teachers and students in primary and secondary schools whose names I cannot name. The "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" literary club has gone through three years. Although the journey over the past three years has been difficult and tortuous, making it difficult for pure literature to gain a foothold, and the pressure of exam-oriented education has made it difficult for us to survive, I still want to thank you for your trust in me and your support for the literary club. We all Never change your original intention! Don't forget, one parent said this: "The meaning of "Dry Rain Listening to the Lotus" is no longer just a literary magazine. Its most fundamental and essential meaning is to provide many children with opportunities to realize their dreams. Nowadays, In this era, this is undoubtedly the most precious and worthy of cherishment! If "Dry Rain Listens to the Lotus" is suspended, it may invisibly kill the innocent and beautiful dreams of one child after another! "This is the highest praise for the "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" literary society! evaluate! This is the highest reward for the "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" literary club!
Dear literary friends, colleagues, and disciples of the "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" literary club, I miss you, I miss you.

There are many excellent websites on the Internet. I will stick to my dream there. You can come and visit when you have time, and I can be your guide.
Let me end my thoughts by quoting the words of Vice President Lu Xiaoping, the honorary president of the "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" literary society, in the founding words of "Dry Rain Listening to the Lotus": "I hope more students Read more traditional Chinese classics and literary classics from around the world, constantly improve your literary literacy, and let your dream of literary creation fly higher and higher!"
