Chapter 168 The Yellow River has reached the age of the people

I watched the huge color documentary "The Great Change of the Yellow River" twice. Looking at it, I am very excited!The film itself is a long poem praising the heroes and people of the motherland with exquisite materials and rigorous structure. What else can I write? As soon as the film enters the title, it is the torrential and turbid waves of the Yellow River, whirling and roaring from the high sky, rushing through the "Twenty-Four Histories" of the motherland. The huge disaster it brought to our people is also like a "twenty-four histories". Twenty-Four Histories", so many that I don't know where to start.

However, both sides of the Yellow River gave birth to our country's long and excellent culture. Our ancestors were "born here, rested here, and gathered races here". The people fear it and love it. Holding the cowhide raft, he thought painfully: "When, oh, when can we control it, tame it, and turn it into green flowing water, irrigating tens of millions of acres for us? What about the fields that carry tens of thousands of ships?" This is the urgent desire of the people for thousands of years. "The sage comes out and the Yellow River is clear", they pin this wish on the vague "sage"

In the body, before the leadership of the Communist Party of China, the people did not recognize themselves, and when the people united and acted, they had a power thousands of times greater than the violent Yellow River! The Yellow River has finally flowed to the age of the people——as soon as the heroic people stood up, they cleaned up their old mountains and rivers from scratch.After Chairman Mao, the leader of the people, personally inspected the banks of the Yellow River, a series of intense and meticulous measures were presented in this documentary. In the spring of 1959, I visited the construction site of the Sanmenxia Water Conservancy Project. When I saw every picture in the film, I couldn't help recalling many things I had seen and heard. Those who have contributed their wisdom and strength to this great project.

When I saw the three heroic teams of concrete, wooden formwork and steel bars fighting intensely in the rain and snow against the ruthless weather, I thought of the "Miraculous Sanmenxia City" I wrote before, where there were tens of thousands of Farmers, business personnel, medical personnel, nursery workers, teachers, actors... like a clump of green leaves supporting a peony, they are working hard to ensure their work efficiency and their living welfare. When I saw the tall cable cranes across the two banks, the long pebble conveyor belt, the huge hanging tanks, gates... and the hydraulic steel pipes like big caves, I thought of the steel factories in my motherland. The scene where the worker brothers were nervously operating.In a steel factory far away in Leningrad, Soviet workers proudly patted a large turbine and said to us with a smile, "This was made for China's Yellow River water conservancy construction." At that time, I felt from the bottom of my heart that not only There are more than 50 cities in China, as well as the Soviet Union and other countries, all playing the music of the great socialist cooperation for our Sanmenxia Project.

When I saw the open construction site, except for the muddy water of the high cliffs and rapids on both sides, only the long belt of the transport plane was rotating rapidly, the crane with its long arm was slowly rising and falling, and a series of trains and cars were passing by. When I was running chug, I couldn’t see many workers, I only saw machines stacked on top of each other, I knew how many auxiliary bases there were on the ground, up and down, far and near, around the construction site, under the command of the phone, like The veins in the giant's body seemed to be supplying the blood needed by the heart.

When I see the peasants supporting the old and the young, happily holding the portrait of Chairman Mao, carrying furniture, boarding the cart end to end, walking towards their new residence amidst two rows of colored flags and the sound of music. At that time, I thought that they moved out of the valley and went to the trees. Not only did they have a new house, but even the historical sites they were familiar with and loved, such as "Tongguan" and "Yongle Palace", were restored and placed next to their huts.I also know that even the tree of "Lingbao jujube" that they love to eat has been moved to a higher place long ago. What they left behind were years of disasters, and what they took away was their beloved "Jiazhen".Here, I smiled and recalled the peonies and lilacs I had watched in the yard of the Construction Site Engineering Bureau. In our excited mood, those flowers were particularly colorful that day.Needless to say, they are now "up to a higher level". Maybe they are reflecting the vast expanse of clear waves on the shore of the artificial lake, whirling and playing shadows!

This artificial lake, which is larger than our natural Taihu Lake, which claims to be 36,000 hectares, has emerald green ripples, and the water and sky are the same color. The majestic Sanmenxia Water Conservancy Project dam is reflected in the water, which looks strangely tall and vivid.The Yellow River has reached the age of the people, and the dream of thousands of years is gradually being realized!What is accumulated in the reservoirs of more than 2,300 square kilometers is not water, but the strength and wisdom gathered from all directions of the country by hundreds of millions of people who have suffered so much and turned over under the leadership of the party.

After writing for half a day, amidst the ups and downs of my thoughts, I can only write some words of praise above! Flower Praise". )
