Reflections after reading "The Biography of Bi Mawen"

Internet novels by blogger Dong Fuzi

The Internet is really interesting, it can connect people from all over the world. Since I got my Ph.D., I have met many people with lofty ideals who are better than me. Among them are teachers, painters, writers, photographers, music educators, overseas travelers, police officers, soldiers and retired leaders. Although we have never met, although we leave comments, replies, and communicate with each other in just a few words at the end of each article, we have established a deep and sincere friendship. I always have the feeling that friends on blogs are more natural and sincere than friends in real life. There are no restraints between men and women, no distance between old and young, no distinction between superiors and inferiors, no differences between rich and poor, no embarrassment of social status, and no age restrictions. When we come together like this, we get to know each other. Communicated enthusiastically. You can come and go freely, with no sadness for the passing away or rejoicing for the new friendships. Sincere, dedicated, and purely for blogging, there is no pressure or urgency. Very relaxed and very noble!

Dongfuzi is one of my good friends. Although we met a little later, in the second year, we made a deep impression on me. He always carefully reads my unsophisticated words, watches my immature drawings, and browses my photos without photography skills. I can always enthusiastically leave encouraging comments and words of praise after reading it. I always read reviews with joy and reply cheerfully. Make reading his comments and replies the happiest thing you can do.

Of course, I often go to his blog. I don’t know if I don’t look at it, but I am shocked when I look at it. Why are you writing a novel? I have always been in awe of people who write novels. I feel that the writer is very thoughtful and condescending, making it difficult to communicate. I am a dancing person, that is, what people often say is a person with well-developed limbs and a simple mind who is engaged in literature and art. It is difficult to communicate with each other if we are not on the same level. Unexpectedly, he is very easy-going, humble and easy to communicate with. At that time, I also had a concern. I felt that writing novels was difficult. To have a life, it should be higher than life, and to have a story, it should also have an attractive storyline. It’s long and has many characters, so how do I read it and leave a comment? Unexpectedly, it turned out to be very attractive at first glance, and we all watched it episode by episode. Soon, his new online book "The Biography of Bi Mawen" was published in printed form! I joked: Brother Zhou, will you give me the new book? Will you write your signature for me? Unexpectedly, he actually sent it to me and actually wrote his message. grateful! Thank you so much! Of course, I would also like to thank all the friends on the Internet who mailed me new books, calligraphy, paintings, and pictures. I bow to you here!

When I got this book, the first thing that caught my eye was the cover, which showed a stone bridge with three men and one woman walking on a load. Very interesting. That painting was painted by Deng De'an, one of the protagonists in his article, a self-taught painter. What does it mean that I keep thinking? Only after I read the whole book did I realize that there was a scene in which three men and one woman were assigned to work in the Shobei region. The woman's name is Hexiang. I used a lot of words, and I thought it would become the main line of his love story. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a beautiful story because of his hesitation, consideration, and consideration for others.

Master Dong, awesome! Although he is the director and party secretary of the Archives Bureau, he has the qualities of a professional writer. No wonder he serves as the vice president and honorary president of their Writers Association. His writing is concise and original. Writing novels requires a lot of control. For example, at the beginning of the book, the Japanese devils harmed the Chinese people and the struggle between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party were brilliantly described in a few sentences. Soon I wrote about the place where Bi Mawen was born, grew up, and studied. When I read about Mr. Dong’s second uncle, third uncle, teacher Tian and the principal who helped him when he was a child, I burst into tears. The school also had to pay ten yuan, and my mother worked hard to cut the grass and weave the straw sandals, and asked him to carry them to the city to sell them. He carried them to the school and put them under the bed for fear that the classmates in the dormitory would see them. I really couldn't hold back my tears. He suffered too much as a child. The fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. I suddenly understood the profound meaning of this sentence. I am a few years younger than him, so I have never suffered this pain. But I will never forget the scene of my mother diligently and thriftily making cloth shoes and putting soles on them every day and every night.

Master Dong, awesome! The Zhou family is a big family, and his grandfather is a cultural person. Although his father died young, his grandfather gave him a good education since he was a child. His second uncle and third uncle all went to school and influenced him. Look after him. Therefore, he was able to enter the best middle school at the time, Hunan Yucai Middle School (Liu Shaoqi also studied in this school). He can also be admitted to Hunan First Normal University (the great man Mao Zedong also studied here). You can be an alumnus with the national president and vice president. Do you think it's great or not? His book introduces many stories of Chairman Mao's youth. For example, taking a bath by the well in a normal school is called "cold bathing," being exposed to the sun on a hot day is called "sunbathing," and running shirtless in the rain is called "wind and rain bathing." Hiking with a classmate named Xiao. The various encounters on the road are really unknown. And the normal school he attended was full of famous teachers teaching them. Literature, mathematics, calligraphy, painting, music. There were music classes at that time. Master Dong, why don’t you study music well? Or painting, maybe you are a singer or a great painter. Unexpectedly, you only chose the literature study group for the afternoon elective. In the first issue of the school magazine "First Division Literature and Art", he published his long poem praising heroes.

No wonder today’s literary foundation is so solid.

Master Dong, awesome! In his words, "If you don't take a share of the mud of materialistic desires, don't wink at power, don't pay attention to conspiracies and traps, don't be afraid of stray bullets and cold guns, you would rather die standing than live on your knees." Dongfuzi When he was appointed as the director of the Liangzhou Archives Bureau, he made remarkable achievements in one year through hard work and hard work. Archival work is boring, so he works tirelessly to collect, organize, and file. Meet with superior leaders for support and do your job with ease. He actually gave a five-minute speech at the 1996 International Archives Conference. How amazing! International Archives Conference!

Master Dong, awesome! In his words, "It's really not easy to be an upright person." "When a person stands with his left and right legs stretched out, he or she is a Chinese character. However, some people write it correctly, and some people write it crookedly. No matter whether it is uppercase or lowercase, no matter celebrities or grassroots people, if the Chinese character is written correctly, it is a real human character. A person who is worthy of being an emperor, a person who lives up to God’s mission, and a person who is beneficial to society!” He did it “overcoming obstacles and sweating with blood”! He did it "with fresh air on his sleeves and a righteous body"! Wonderfully done! Although it was more difficult than the Nine-Nine Eighty-one Difficulties in Pursuing Buddhist Scriptures in the West, he did it for this man with capital letters! Master Dong, may his noble character, magnanimity, perseverance, and perseverance remain forever! Carry forward forever!

In short, Dongfuzi's "The Biography of Bi Mawen" is very exciting and rich. It integrates literature, knowledge and professionalism into one, which is very attractive. It's like an autobiography, with his own life experience and growth history. Like the annals of history, there are stories of great people of a generation, stories of the Zhou family and celebrities of the Zhou family. Like a pure novel, it describes many touching stories of ordinary people. It is also like a poem that records and sings the memorable moments in history, as well as poems written for children and grandchildren after retirement. I was moved when I read his blog, but I was even more moved after reading the book.

As a man, husband, father, grandfather, administrator and an old man who still lives a wonderful life after retirement, he has done his best in every role and in every time period! I really deserve to live a good and upright "human" character! His successful sons and lively grandchildren will be proud to have an elder like him!
