As we all know, Zhou Enlai sets an example and is strict with himself, which is inseparable from his good life style and ideological cultivation since childhood.
When Zhou Enlai was studying in Nankai School, he posted a paper "mirror" next to a large vertical mirror, which read "Face must be clean, hair must be cut, clothes must be repaired, buttons must be fastened, head must be straight, shoulders must be flat, chest must be wide, back must be straight, weather must not be arrogant and lazy, and colors must be peaceful and appropriate." This passage is both popular and meaningful. Zhou Enlai took these words as a "mirror" and accompanied him all his life.

Verb (abbreviation for verb) China has taken off.
19 17 In June, Zhou Enlai graduated from Nankai School with honors. He is ambitious and intends to study in Japan with the examiner's fee. In July, he wrote a farewell message for his classmate Guo Sining, "I would like to meet you when China takes off in the world". Before going to Japan, I wrote that famous poem to express my national salvation:
Dajiang Song "Turn East,
A dense discipline group helps the poor,
This wall will break down in ten years,
Jumping into the sea is hard to get in return.
This year, his book was presented to Wang Pushan, a classmate from Nankai, with the inscription: Straight to the sea, Kunlun at once. Nineteen-year-old Zhou Enlai, full of waves and thoughts, embarked on a journey of youth for the rapid development of China.

6. The world is endless.
At the age of 20, Zhou Enlai thought, "People are always ambitious. Ordinary people just eat and wear warm clothes, and then feel it's over. People with lofty aspirations want to save the country and try their best to society. " "People in the world have real skills, and they must be able to cultivate one's morality and raise one's mind. When you decide what to do, do it desperately, regardless of interests; If you shouldn't do it, hide or strongly oppose it. In this way, people always have certain opinions in their hearts and refuse to change them easily. Success or failure is not a matter of course. However, when he was alive, he always wanted to succeed in what he did. He should not be discouraged by torture, nor should he be satisfied with a small success. Liang Rengong has a poem:' There is no end to heaven and earth', and I quite agree. "

Seven, determine the belief
From Paris to London, Zhou Enlai saw the serious turmoil and uneasiness of life in various countries after the European War, and he felt that the trend of social revolution was eastward. He seriously considered the labor movement in Britain and the strike trend of coal miners, and finally decided that the road of the October Revolution in Russia was correct, that is, Fabian socialism in Britain was still a fantasy.
Zhou Enlai eagerly read the English version of the Manifesto, the Development of Socialism from Utopia to Science, the State and Revolution and other classic Marxist works. After repeated research and thinking, Zhou Enlai finally made the most important choice in his life and established his belief in communism.
In a letter to a friend, Zhou Enlai wrote: "We should believe in the principles of communism, the two principles of class revolution and proletarian dictatorship, and the means to achieve them should adapt to the times!"
192 1 year, 23-year-old Zhou Enlai joined the Parisian communist group, which is one of the eight initiating groups in China. From then on, he devoted all his energy and talent to the cause of communism.

Eight, revolutionary theory
Zhou Enlai, 23, was inspired by a series of investigations and analyses on the post-war situation in Europe. In the European Crisis after World War II, he clearly realized that the imperialist predatory war had brought shocking disasters to society, and there were disturbing scenes everywhere. Productivity is destroyed, economy is in panic, and people live in poverty. All this fell on the workers who were hungry and cold. They are trapped in internal and external affairs, and there is no way out. When they can't stand it, it must be an explosive revolution! What is particularly valuable is that he combined these theories with China's reality. After analyzing various social crises in postwar Europe, this paper points out: "How can our country avoid the influence of the eastward trend of social revolution?"
In order to promote the arrival of China Revolution, he actively explored revolutionary theory and exercised himself tenaciously: not for the situation, not for the inducement. Soon, introduced by Zhang Shenfu and Liu Qingyang, he joined the Parisian Communist Group, determined to fight for the liberation of all mankind for life.

Nine, don't die.
1922 In March, shortly after Zhou Enlai arrived in Germany, he realized that Huang Ai, a member of Huishe, was killed by Zhao Hengti, a warlord in Hunan, when he led a workers' strike in Changsha. He was so indignant that he wrote a poem "The Field of Life and Death" and sent it to the members of Chueh-hui Society in China. The poem wrote:
Heroic death,
You died a terrible death.
Fear of death,
What a heavy death!
"If you don't work hard,
Where is the harvest?
Without sowing the seeds of revolution,
But I hope communist party will blossom.
Dreaming of red flags flying,
Don't let him get blood,
Is there such a cheap thing in the world?
Sit down and talk.
How to get up!
"Raise that black iron hoe,
Reclaim uncultivated land;
Seeds scattered around the world,
Blood dripped on the ground. "
In his letter, he expressed his firm revolutionary belief as an adult. He wrote: "My only memory of him is the poem that expresses my heart and my firm tendency towards communist party recently." And said: "I think the doctrine must remain unchanged, and I am determined to promote it for him."

X. Recommend songs and change words
In the 1950s, when Zhou Enlai met the leading cadres of the Railway Corps, he asked them, "Can you sing the song" Four Directions "?"
"……
Put that suit on your back,
Pick up that gun,
The majestic team is huge,
Comrades, where am I going?
We want to go where the motherland needs it most.
Crossing mountains and mountains to fill the sea,
Magnificent rivers and mountains weave the railway network,
Today, sweat is spilled on the earth,
In the Ming Dynasty, flowers were everywhere.
Comrades, stride forward,
Railway soldiers aim in all directions. "
Later, at the National Youth Congress, Zhou Enlai also called on everyone to learn to "aim in all directions". He also changed a word for the lyrics, changing the original "laying a railway network" to "weaving a railway network".

Thirteen, worried about the national conditions
Zhang Youru, a Chinese teacher in Nankai School, is a patriotic and democratic person. At the invitation of Ye Jing Music Club, he joined the choir of the club. In the fifth issue of Dedication published in 19 16 10, he published his poem "Current Affairs of Injury". Zhou Enlai used the original rhyme and a sentence in the same issue:
This vast continent is in turmoil,
The whole country is in a daze;
The saddest thing is that autumn is coming again.
Insects chirp badly.
Teachers and students exchange their concerns and feelings about state affairs and political situation through poetry.

Fourteen Advocate new drama
19 16, Zhou Enlai wrote an editorial for School Spirit, the school magazine of Nankai University, and proposed that in order to solve the "fatuous and stupid" situation in China and save China, we must first make "people's wisdom open and people's morality advance". To do this, he thought that "there is no reason to abandon people's education". Therefore, he spent almost all his spare time and every year. In addition to leading the work of "respecting labor", he edited and published the magazines of "respecting labor" and "school spirit", organized various lectures and seminars on current affairs in the school, and often held literary evenings and various sports activities. He is an important member of the new troupe jointly established by teachers and students of Nankai School. He actively participated in the director and performed many plays such as Missing, New Teenager and Awakening. Its contents either attack feudal morality, or expose social darkness, advocate scientific democracy, and call on people to move towards progress and light. At that time, the social atmosphere was not yet open, and men and women could not perform on the same stage. In the new troupe, Zhou Enlai is not only responsible for the scenery, but also plays the leading role in new plays such as One Qian Yuan. After the successful performance in Nankai, the play was once a sensation at the invitation of Beijing literary and art circles. In his subsequent composition "One Dollar for the Eleventh Anniversary of Our School's New Drama", he discussed the educational function of the new drama to the society. He said: "School education is for young people, and if they want to integrate with the society, the new drama will focus on this. The progress of society depends on the function of persuasion. The new drama is the most touching and different from the old drama. "

15. Return to China for other benefits.
19 18 In May, the Japanese government secretly signed the Sino-Japanese Joint Military Defense Agreement with the traitorous government, which aroused strong opposition from Japanese students studying in Japan. In addition, the police chief of the Dengaku Bureau of the Sun God insulted China in his speech, which made Japanese students indignant and launched a tit-for-tat struggle with the Japanese government. During this period, Zhou Enlai often wrote leaflets, translated documents and printed promotional materials in the basement of Kanda China Youth Association. He made patriotic speeches at various gatherings and demonstrated with patriotic students studying in Britain to denounce and expose the crimes of Japanese imperialism and China warlord government. Japanese students' protests in China were suppressed again and again by Japanese police. Zhou Enlai, like many students studying in Japan, regards Japan as an example for China to learn from and tries to find a way out to save the country. Now he is more and more disappointed in Japan, so he resolutely decided to give up his studies and return to China to "pursue other interests."

Sixteen, boycott Japanese goods
19 191month 16, just as the patriotic mass movement continued to advance, Japanese militarist thugs injured several China students who boycotted Japanese goods in Fuzhou and killed a policeman, which led to the "Fuzhou Massacre" that shocked the whole country. Students in Fujian went on strike to protest, and students from various provinces and cities rose up to respond, forming a climax of boycotting Japanese goods. 1February 10, the Tianjin Federation of Students above Middle School (New Federation of Students) composed of Tianjin boys and girls was established, calling for a boycott of Japanese goods. /kloc-on 0/5, Zhou Enlai, as the executive section chief of the New Federation of Students, went to Tianjin General Chamber of Commerce to discuss specific measures to boycott Japanese goods.

17. Petition for arrest
1920 1 month, the investigators of Tianjin Federation of Students were beaten by Japanese ronin when they inspected Japanese goods in Kuifazhuang foreign goods village. When representatives from all walks of life petitioned the Zhili Provincial Office, the military police beat the students and arrested more than 20 representatives from all walks of life, including Ma Jun and Ma. Subsequently, Tianjin Federation of Students and all walks of life were seized. That night, Zhou Enlai hosted a secret meeting of the Enlightenment in the basement of Westley Hall in the French Concession to study countermeasures and decided to hold a larger demonstration, led by Zhou Enlai and Guo Longzhen. On January 29th, five or six thousand students from different schools, with Zhou Enlai as the commander in chief, gathered at the Zhili Provincial Office to petition. The people elected Zhou Enlai, Yu Fangzhou, Guo Longzhen and Zhang Ruoming as representatives and went in to see the governor. Four people were arrested. Students petitioning outside the office were also suppressed by the armed police, causing more than 50 people to be seriously injured, resulting in the "1.29" bloody tragedy in Tianjin. That night, four representatives, including Zhou Enlai, were taken to the camp office. They shouted along the way: "Long live our compatriots!" "Down with traitors!" "Never surrender to death!" Waiting for the slogan, people on both sides of the street were moved.
This is the first time that Zhou Enlai was arrested by the reactionary authorities.
