Chapter 4 after returning

I returned to my motherland, to the capital I know and love the most, and I was dazzled! I haven't seen her for several years, and she is no longer "haggard in color and haggard in appearance", but full of energy and radiant.How many scenic spots have appeared in my dreams over the years, especially Tiananmen Square, the commemoration of the "May 4th Movement", the old gate tower, the desolate square, where thousands of innocent and pure patriotic youths were once slaughtered by the reactionary ruling class The place of persecution is now shining with gold and green, and it has become a symbol of the unity of the people of China and the world for peace, and it has become a place for the great people's leaders to review the powerful people's troops on the auspicious day of the Spring and Autumn Festival.In addition, such as the Forbidden City built with carved railings and jade, the majestic Temple of Heaven, and the exquisite White Pagoda... These hundreds of years, the creation of the wisdom of thousands of working people with blood and sweat has finally returned to the hands of the working people. Under the care and love of the government, everything is completely new!These extraordinarily harmonious colors and extraordinarily vivid sentiments are extraordinarily glorious and serene in the clear and crisp autumn weather in Beijing.Flocks of milky-white pigeons are flying around in the sky above the rippling water and exquisite pavilions, with loud and melodious whistles, constantly spreading the news of peace!

This new vitality not only envelopes the majestic and beautiful buildings in Beijing, but also envelops the bustling working people who suddenly increased in Beijing.In this new and beautiful city, they are working hard, visiting happily, and studying enthusiastically. Among these bustling working people, there are more and more children of New China.On the tram, in the park, in the streets and alleys, there are clusters of flowers, those wearing red scarves, those carrying schoolbags, and those in the arms of their parents... bursts of clear and lively laughter called out the hope of the new China.

This will lead to my future creative problems. This is another unprecedented event!Under the correct leadership and encouragement of our own government, literary and artistic workers across the country mobilized, united and organized four years ago.We no longer follow the old path of "writing books behind closed doors" and "appreciating oneself alone". Thousands of hearts and eyes gather in the same direction.The creative principle of socialist realism is like a big magnet, calling to attract thousands of literary and artistic steel needles, pointing directly at it, and turning with it.

I deeply feel that the scope of my past creations was narrow, my vision was short-sighted, and I did not face the masses of the people.The reason is that my position is wrong, my point of view is wrong, and the choice of the object is also wrong.But as long as I keep working hard, my writing tools are still available.I was able to participate in this National Literary Generation Conference and got the opportunity to learn. I feel very happy and very excited.Although I am small, I am still a steel needle close to this big magnet.In the general route, I have chosen my job, which is: I am willing to work hard for the creation of children's literature.I have always liked children, I like to describe happy and bright things, and I like to use clear and fresh words and sentences.In the former environment of "autumn air everywhere, spring is difficult to warm in one room", my desire to create is shrinking day by day, and gradually disappears.Today, in the environment of the new China, where every phenomenon is renewed, looking around, some are healthy and lively children, some are happy and bright new things, and some are bright and bright prospects. My materials and writing ideas should be inexhaustible. Inexhaustible.I must study the literary theory of socialist realism, study advanced literary works, and connect with the masses.In my works, I will try my best to create positive artistic images and express new types of characters, so that children in New China can see the new, forward, and vigorous power of the motherland, and encourage them to be educated, optimistic, and Heroic and resolute builders of socialist society.

I will always be with our neat literature and art team, and strive for the growth and growth of the socialist realism literature of the motherland!September 1953
