Dear children: My heart is filled with joy.The sunset outside the window is in the sky, the new moon has risen, and the sound of children laughing and running in the courtyard is rippling in the cool evening breeze... Children, how happy we are, living in New China, how many great and brilliant deeds, let us see Arrived!Of course, you are happier than me, because what you will see in the future is beyond my imagination in the new society where you dare to think and do! I just came back from a walk in front of Tiananmen Square—these days, the whole of Beijing is like a big family, preparing for an unprecedented happy event, big and small, loving and busy.On the two sides in front of Tiananmen Square, since last winter, I have watched it demolish houses, see it break ground, see it lay foundations, and see it erect scaffolding... Every time I pass by there, there are floods of people and vehicles. , the sound of various machines, shaking mountains and shaking mountains.With the arrival of spring, the ground gradually became flat, and the spring breeze from Inner Mongolia still raised dust.People walking through the dust on their faces are still full of enthusiasm and joy of hope, because we know that in the near future, there will never be any more dust on the 40-hectare square in front of Tiananmen Square!

This square is changing with each passing day. If you don't pass by there for a few days, it will change.A large snow-white lamp like a blossoming cotton boll was erected on both sides of the broad road; the scaffolding of the buildings on both sides of Tiananmen Square was removed, and two solemn and majestic buildings emerged.Big pine trees, big willow trees, and big maple trees were moved from outside the city and planted on both sides of the Monument to the People's Heroes.These big trees will make this square have the most exciting colors all year round.The green of the pine trees, the green of the willow leaves and the crimson of the maple leaves will set off the surrounding tall buildings, making them more solemn and beautiful.

When I was walking on the square this afternoon, I looked east and saw the tall buildings and giant pillars of the newly built Chinese Revolution Museum and History Museum.This museum is far away from the National People's Congress Auditorium to the west.Both of these two large buildings are 45 meters high, a section higher than the Tiananmen Tower on the front, but because the square is wide, the color of the new buildings is lighter than that of the Tiananmen Tower with yellow tiles and red walls, so it looks very Reconcile fit. I visited the National People's Congress Auditorium a few days ago.It gave me a feeling of dreaming in a fairyland, and it seemed that a child suddenly walked into the world of fairy tales.I have seen the parliament buildings of many countries in my life, and in my memory, there is no one greater than it.This auditorium, which can accommodate thousands of people, is really solemn and magnificent!The 10,000 seats are divided into three floors. The first floor is the National People's Congress seat, which can accommodate 3,600 people. There is a writing desk in front of each seat, and there are special loudspeakers and listening wind on the desk. , the second and third floors are large terraces, with a total of more than 6,000 seats.However, the two-story wide platform that bears these 6,000 seats does not have a pillar to support the roof.Therefore, sitting in any of the more than 10,000 seats, you can clearly see everything on the rostrum.The entrance of the rostrum is 32 meters wide and can accommodate a presidium of 300 people.Large-scale song and dance dramas and large-scale symphonies can also be performed here. The large orchestra in front of the stage can accommodate hundreds of people to perform.

The lighting of the auditorium is the most gorgeous lighting on the roof.Among them is a big sunflower facing the sun. In the heart of the sunflower is a radiant red star, which symbolizes the hearts of hundreds of millions of people, facing our dear party.Outside the sunflower is a three-ring wavy lamp ring, and the inner and outer rings are covered with 500 brilliant lights like stars.The sky-blue walls connect to the roof, which is a dome of water and sky. Sitting in the auditorium is like sitting under the starry sky on a quiet summer night! Children, in the capital of our motherland, dozens of new buildings, large and small, have appeared in this year alone; if you talk about it in detail, you can't describe it in a few days and nights.Just one place in the auditorium of the National People's Congress is enough to talk about it for a day and a half.I will only give a brief description of the auditorium, and the rest will be left to you to see for yourself.

Children have a long life in Japan, and the future is bright. In the future, you will not only be able to visit inside, but also hold meetings inside. It all depends on your own efforts. What I want to tell the children now is the flood of feelings that surged up in Tiananmen Square.When I first arrived in Beijing at your age more than 40 years ago, what I saw was the Forbidden City with yellow tiles covered with grass; faded red walls; muddy and dirty when it snowed and rained , the dusty streets when the wind blows; those who ride cars and carriages are the mighty foreigners and the rulers riding on the heads of the people; those who walk and drive are the hungry and haggard working people.Who would have thought that decades later, our people, who have suffered oppression and exploitation for thousands of years, would be able to be so elated and joyful today!

Children, "Without the Communist Party, there would be no new China." Without the blood shed by the revolutionary martyrs, the five-star red flag we fly high today would not be stained.Without the correct and wise leadership of the Communist Party of China, the industrious and brave hundreds of millions of people in the motherland would not be able to break out of this splendid and bright world.We must keep this fact firmly in mind, and our hearts will always be like the sunflower on the roof of the Great Hall of the People, leaning toward the radiant red star that symbolizes the Communist Party of China full of love!

When I was wandering around the square, the children who were going to parade on the National Day were practicing walking.They held bouquets and marched neatly and solemnly.There are also many children waiting to practice, all scattered around the square.On this wide ground, the human figure looks so small, the sky looks so vast and blue, and the big cars coming from the opposite road look like small toys. At this time, I suddenly felt how vast our motherland is, how deep the party cares for us, and how small we ourselves seem in the middle!But "smallness" is viewed from a personal point of view, "gathering sand into a tower, gathering armpits into fur", the party always values ​​the power of the masses, children, let us always unite and work hard for the prosperity of the motherland!

Happy Holidays to you all! Your friend Bing Xin September 9, 1959, Beijing. A collection of prose and poetry. )
