Chapter 120 Sow the seeds of communism—like watching the children's feature film "Zhaoxia"

I watched the children's movie "Zhaoxia", and I was very excited and moved. I think not only children should watch and like to watch this movie, but adults—especially teachers and parents should also like to watch and should watch this movie. of. Today, when the red flag is fluttering in the wind, socialist construction is flourishing in all parts of the motherland.Children in New China are the successors of building socialism and communism. The 650 million people and the Communist Party of China leading the people have great expectations for children.The education policy put forward by our party: education serves proletarian politics, and the combination of education and productive labor is timely, wise and great.This film shows how a small school united and struggled to implement the policy of combining education with production and labor in the process of responding to the party's great call and carrying out work-study programs, and achieved a joyous and satisfying victory in the educational revolution. .

The process of the development of the story is very fascinating. It reflects the different attitudes of children, teachers, and parents towards productive labor, and everyone's class consciousness is reflected in the different attitudes of teachers and parents. Lin Zheng, the principal of the primary school, is a young party member who grew up in a revolutionary environment. He is full of vigor, but also calm and patient.On the one hand, he listened intently to what Secretary Liu of the Municipal Party Committee said: "We implement work-study programs, not simply to reform educational methods, but a revolution in educational thinking... You are sowing seeds! Sowing seeds for the cause of communism!" From the bottom of his heart, he felt that he had gained infinite strength; on the one hand, he closely relied on the masses, the teachers of the whole school, and the parents of the students to mobilize them and win them over. Constantly sincere and patient persuasion.The image of this passionate and courageous revolutionary youth is touching.

Teacher Jiang is a middle-aged female teacher with bourgeois teaching experience; however, just as Principal Lin Zheng said, "You love education and love children. She is bound by her own experience.” Teacher Jiang is bound by her so-called “education and upbringing should be through classroom teaching” experience, so she is only satisfied with the children’s dull and clear recitation along with the voice, and opposes the children’s labor. Practice, and use the labor of cleaning the classroom as a punishment; in the depths of her heart, she also carried a personal "honor" burden of "I can't live up to the trust and expectations of my parents and comrades!"However, even though Teacher Jiang is backward and stubborn, in a healthy and positive environment, when she feels that she is "far away from the party and comrades, and even from the children!" Seeing that after the work-study program, the children's knowledge has improved, She became healthy, her discipline and unity deepened, and she finally came to her senses. She said to Lin Zheng, "I... I once again realized the greatness and correctness of the party. Now I feel that although I have taught for many years, But to train good communist successors, we must first learn from you.”

Mr. Jiang's change of accepting the leadership of the party is welcome.I think old teachers with complicated psychology like Mr. Jiang are representative, and it also shows us that the educational revolution and the ideological revolution of teachers are inseparable. As for the images of the children, all of them are cute, and they all love to work.Hua Xiaochuan, a child of a worker's family, took a shower after the big tire roll, and ate dinner like a dragon and tiger. He had a clear conscience about the misunderstandings of his brother and sister-in-law, and simply ignored them.His elder brother, Master Hua, after knowing that his younger brother was not "going outside to the wild" but doing transportation work, also gladly gave him a bowl full of vegetables as an apology. Liu Haiyan, who has "weak wings", is so tired that she has a fever, but she still stubbornly "does homework", and said that she still needs to work, saying "I want to fly!" With the encouragement and persuasion of her parent, Secretary Liu, she finally Ken lay still.Although the pampered Fang Mingzhu and the spoiled Jin Dabao were temporarily intimidated and lured by their grandma and mother into taking sick leave, they immediately returned to the group of children happily after the visit of the principal and director, and worked together with everyone. Here comes productive labor.Our vigorous successors, under the leadership of the correct and great party, have so much strength and so great a future!

This colorful film is full of enthusiasm, optimism, bright, and smooth atmosphere from beginning to end, especially in the scenes where children appear in groups: such as the section where children are engaged in transportation labor and rolling tires; Drumming, waving flags, and a whole team entering the venue to recite; in the workshop of a small factory, children are doing various productive labor with sweat and smiles on their faces; and finally, on a cart full of nail boxes, When the children piled up the fruits of their own labor—wooden toys, radios, rakes, etc.—on the car as gifts to the little brothers and sisters in the agricultural cooperatives and the old grandparents in the nursing home, the audience was like Like the father of Jin Dabao, who worked in the countryside, he shed tears of excitement and thanked the party for "bringing up the children so well!"

On the first International Children's Day in the 1960s, it is very timely to release this educational children's film. It not only inspires children to aspire to be a laborer with socialist awareness and culture; For those parents who have a bourgeois ideology that despises labor and spoils their children, and teachers who teach labor in textbooks but in practice resist the party's policy of "combining education with productive labor", it is a shocking a living education.
