During the celebration of the 60th anniversary of the founding of New China, I reread the book Anecdotes of the Founding General (written by Wu Dongfeng), but I have a special feeling in my heart.

When the People's Liberation Army conferred the title on 1955, Mao Zedong proposed to confer the rank of General Xu Guangda. Hearing this, Xu Guangda couldn't sleep at night and was very nervous. He submitted a "demotion application report" to the leaders of the Central Military Commission, demanding that "I be awarded the rank of general". In addition, those who have made outstanding achievements will be awarded the title of general. "After the central although don't agree to downgrade, but agreed to downgrade, Xu Guangda's mood is a little stable. However, let's look at many uneducated people now. They speculate for profits, flatter others, buy officials with money, become small officials and seek big officials, hoping to be in high positions, hold real power and be corrupt. The academic atmosphere in education has also deteriorated to the extreme. In order to get a doctorate, evaluate professors and plagiarize papers, the author pieced together whatever he had, and even academicians forged it for personal interests. Compared with such an absurd case, Xu Guangda's abdication is really different.

General Wang Jianan has four sons, all of whom work in other places. People advised him to transfer the child to Beijing, but the general insisted. He said: "Children are not private property. As long as I am not dead, none of you will be transferred back! " Wang Jianan is known as "Wang Qingtian" because of the three fires when an upright official took office. Nowadays, some officials not only covet enjoyment by themselves, but also rack their brains to seek official positions for their descendants by virtue of their power and years of official relations, carefully cultivate them and promote them step by step. Father and son officials and family officials are everywhere in some places, and the people hate them.

In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, General Ye Fei suddenly received a letter from his elder sister who was far away in the Philippines, informing her that her biological mother was seriously ill, and her debts at home could not be repaid, and she was about to declare bankruptcy, hoping to lend her some money. Ye Fei, then secretary of Fujian Provincial Party Committee, governor and commander of Fujian Military Region, was a senior official, but he didn't have a generous salary, so he could only look at the ocean and sigh. The corrupt officials exposed now, not to mention provincial and ministerial officials, are just a small county official, with huge property of unknown origin and tens of millions of bribes. There is no doubt that the construction achievements of New China in the past 60 years are brilliant, but behind this glory, corrupt officials, large and small, are also amazing in taking bribes and wasting money. Punishing corruption and promoting honesty can not only prevent moths from eating away at people's labor achievements, but also stimulate people's confidence in creating wealth.

General Chen Zaidao had a discussion with a college student. A student stood up and asked the general, "Is the society you yearned for then what we are now?" The general replied, "When I was young, I thought socialism was a world of good people. As for socialism, there will still be ghosts and tricks, which I have never thought of. " Honestly. At that time, groups of enthusiastic young people walked out of the giants, out of the campus, out of the city, and joined the revolution precisely because they saw the dictatorship of the reactionary rulers, the unfairness of the social system, and the failure to guarantee democracy and freedom. They are full of passion, pursue the truth, persevere, and shed their blood to break the old world and build a new China. Their dream has finally come true. However, in the past 60 years, * * * and China have walked a road full of thorns and rapids, which is no easier than climbing snow-capped mountains and crossing grasslands. During this period, our intellectuals suffered from the purgatory of ideological transformation, our farmers suffered from famine and our country suffered from ten years of catastrophe. Even these marshals and generals who survived because of meritorious service will be arrested and imprisoned if they are not careful, and some will be persecuted to death. Only by ruling the country according to law can we avoid tossing and detours, eliminate corruption and all kinds of ugly phenomena, and live up to the good expectations of the founding generals and Qian Qian's thousands of martyrs who exchanged their blood and lives.
