Chapter 27 26. Special article: Zhidan's daughter really looks like Zhidan

"A beautiful 6-year-old girl, the Red Army made a special military uniform for her; she wears an officer's belt and a red star on her hat, everyone there likes her, she looks like a little marshal." In 1936, the American reporter Ai Liu Lizhen, the "Little Marshal" described by Degas Snow in the famous book "A Journey to the West" that shocked the world at the time, grew up and failed to gallop on the battlefield like his father Liu Zhidan. In 1979, she was elected by the people's representatives as the deputy director of the Standing Committee of the Shaanxi Provincial People's Congress in the northwest base area established by her father and comrades-in-arms - the "foothold" of the Red Army's Long March. The chairman of the Construction Promotion Association for 16 years has become an outstanding public servant in governing the people's country that his father had laid down.

On the eve of the 60th birthday of the People's Republic of China, Liu Zhidan was jointly recommended by 11 central ministries and commissions including the Propaganda Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, and the General Political Department of the People's Liberation Army. On August 19, the reporter once again entered the cadre rest center on Zhuque Road in Xi'an to visit the only daughter of the people's hero who was praised by Zhou Enlai as "five thousand years, thousands of heroes, and the people's hero is Liu Zhidan". Listen to her blessings and reports on the 60th birthday of the motherland.

The eighty-year-old sister Lizhen is hale and hearty, quick thinking, wise, humorous, peaceful and sharp in conversation.His deep eyes and straight nose resemble Liu Zhidan's face on the wall portrait.I blurted out: You are really like your father.The eldest sister smiled, her face was full of happiness and pride, and she was intoxicated by the memories of the past: "When I was in school in Yan'an, my father's old comrades always said that Zhenwa really looked like Lao Liu. The face was similar, and the body was slightly on the right side when walking. , flicking his right hand, looking like an 'Old Liu'."

The image, God is more like her father's elder sister Lizhen, who inherited her father's loyalty to the faith, love for the people, character and strength of character.She said: "The children of martyrs shoulder the responsibilities and obligations of two generations to the people, serve the people, and dare not slack off at all." She went to the Shaanxi-Gansu base area with her mother at the age of 4 and joined the party at the age of 16. For 64 years, she has taken "Liu Zhidan's daughter to be like Zhidan" as the highest goal in her life, and has been diligently pursuing it.In the eyes of the people of Shaanxi, Liu Lizhen is a good doctor who cares about patients and has superb medical skills; a good public servant who cares about the safety and security of ordinary people and diligently serves the people;The reputation of the common people was won by her unpretentious words and deeds.Professor Liang Xingliang, the president of the Shaanxi Provincial Communist Party History Research Association and doctoral supervisor of Northwest University, said with deep emotion from his many years of contact with Liu Lizhen: "Liu Lizhen not only has the aura of her parents, but also her personality charm and dedication to the people of Shaanxi. Equally radiant and legendary.”

Serving the people requires real talents and real learning. After graduating from Yan'an University, Lizhen's eldest sister stayed at the school to work. In 1949, she was admitted to Harbin Medical University and then transferred to China Medical University. In 1956, he was admitted to the Shanghai Medical College as an associate doctoral candidate, and then taught in Xi'an Medical College.During his teaching period, he also learned traditional ethnic medicine from famous Chinese medicine practitioners, integrated Chinese and Western medicine skills, and accumulated strong capital to serve the people.

To be an angel in white who saves the dying and heals the wounded is the career ideal in the heart of Sister Lizhen Jiuzang. At the end of 1929, Sister Lizhen was born in a poor village in Baoan County (now Zhidan County).My father was on the move all year round during the revolution, so he couldn't take care of his family.She has been sickly since she was a child.Sister Lizhen still remembers that when she was sick, her mother picked a lot of mugwort leaves and burned them on her head and body. The pain made her cry, leaving numerous burn marks on her body.What she will never forget the most is the tragic death of her brother. In the autumn of 1935, when the Red 25th, Red 26th, and Red 27th Armies joined forces in Yongping Town, Yanchuan, she and her younger brother Manwa suddenly had a high fever.A military doctor who was captured by the Kuomintang army gave them a kind of pill. After taking it, she vomited continuously. The younger brother, who was less than 1 year old, died on the same day.Afterwards, the military doctor who poisoned him escaped.Sister Lizhen's mother was distraught, and hugged her tightly, weeping: "When will we have our own doctor and our own medicine!" The death of her brother and her mother's words left a deep impression on her young heart. It has become the driving force for her persistent pursuit of the medical and health cause and the source of her sincere love for the people after she became a doctor and a politician.

In March 1947, the Kuomintang army Hu Zongnan aggressively attacked Yan'an.At this time, Liu Lizhen, who had been in the party for a year, signed up to join the army and came to work as a clerk in the "Yiye" field hospital led by Boss Peng.Since then, 17-year-old Lizhen, like ordinary nurses, changed the dressings, massaged, washed the face and feet of the wounded day and night.At that time, she really envied those doctors who did everything possible to relieve the pain of the wounded and let the wounded recover and return to the front line when the medicine was in short supply.In her mind, the people's military doctor is the most capable person in the world.

In 10 years, Liu Lizhen finally grew from an ordinary soldier of the First Field Army to a people's doctor.The joy, the pride, Sister Lizhen has talked about so far, and it is still palpable. In the more than 20 years of Lizhen's medical career, it is difficult to count how many patients' lives and health she has exchanged with her love. In 1964, Sister Lizhen led a medical team back to the old area of ​​northern Shaanxi where she was born and raised for medical treatment.After hearing the news, the old folks rushed to tell each other: "Liu Zhidan's daughter is back!" With an ordinary smiling face, the elder sister is like a spring breeze, like drinking nectar, like a fish in water.She feels the weight of responsibility on her shoulders.In the fire-like enthusiasm of the villagers, there is not only deep memory for her father, but also full expectations for her medical ethics and skills.Day and night, hills and ravines, her slender figure is running around.She knows no fatigue, no hunger, no danger.Understand the current situation of common diseases and frequently-occurring diseases in local rural areas, and use rural fairs to publicize common sense of disease prevention.In response to the problem of "uterine prolapse" among local women after childbirth, she used "Simplified Buzhong Yiqi Decoction", which costs only about 2 cents per dose, and combined with acupuncture, many women relieved their pain and restored their ability to work.At that time, whenever the masses fell ill, the comrades of the medical team would be there on call.Once, a woman in Dujiagou, Mizhi County had a massive hemorrhage. After hearing the news, the elder sister hurried on the road with a medical kit on her back.When they arrived, the mother was in shock, and the cave was pitch-black. Under the illumination of a flashlight, the elder sister immediately carried out first aid.Day and night, she guarded the patient carefully until the patient escaped from danger.Once again, facing the peasants on the death line, without hesitation, she bent down and performed artificial respiration with her mouth to save another life that maintained the family's relationship.Decades have passed, and the folks are still telling the moving story of the medical team led by Liu Zhidan's daughter who did not accept red envelopes, had no medical accidents, was full of true love and deep affection for the people, and made everyone recover physically. In 1967, the eldest sister led the medical team to walk through the winding and rugged mountain roads on both sides of the Hanjiang River in southern Shaanxi, composing another movement of loving and benefiting the people.

During the "Cultural Revolution", Sister Lizhen, who was in trouble, was sent to the Sanyuan County Hospital.She has never been depressed or pessimistic due to personal and family misfortunes, and she still earnestly fulfills her vocation as a doctor.At that time, Japanese encephalitis was prevalent, and in the county hospital with 60 beds, more than 40 beds were occupied by Japanese encephalitis patients.She divided the patients into three types: mild, moderate, and severe, and respectively used integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine to increase the cure rate of JE by 50%.

Liu Lizhen, a good doctor, has won the respect and trust of the masses with his noble medical ethics.How can the people forget such a people's doctor!The common people look forward to providing her with a bigger platform to display her talents in serving the people. In 1979, when the Fifth Shaanxi Provincial People's Congress elected the leadership team of the Standing Committee of the Provincial People's Congress, Liu Lizhen was not included in the list of candidates recommended by the Provincial Party Committee.Recommended by hundreds of representatives from Xi'an, Yan'an and other places, Liu Lizhen was added as a candidate, and was elected as the deputy director of the Standing Committee of the Provincial People's Congress with a high number of votes.During her tenure, she was in charge of medicine, health, education, and science and technology.The eldest sister said affectionately: "Back then, the people tightened their belts to support the revolution, and only then did the people's country come into being. Today, the people's representatives have elected me with great trust. As a public servant of the people, how can I not care about the people, serve the people, and respect the people?" , take seeking the interests of the people as her duty, and fulfill her duties!" During her 14-year tenure, she traveled to 107 counties, cities, and districts in the province, and went deep into rural areas, schools, factories, scientific research institutes, street communities, and medical and health units. Seriously perform the duties of public servants of the people.Liu Lizhen, a good public servant, has gained the trust and love of the people.When ordinary people encounter disasters, they "talk to Director Liu of the Provincial People's Congress", which makes her overwhelmed with letters and visits.

One day in the autumn of 1991, a woman pushed open the door of the eldest sister's office, choked up and said, "Director Liu, I have come to trouble you because I have nowhere to go."The elder sister immediately interrupted the conversation with me, and hurriedly greeted me: "Sit down quickly, and talk slowly." The woman told herself that she was a doctor at the Xi'an People's Garment Factory. When her husband went to resist the U.S. and aid Korea, she responded to the call of the state and gave birth to a child. After retirement, he can enjoy the treatment of 3% capital adjustment, but the unit has never realized it.She searched all over the relevant district, city, and provincial departments, and tried to shirk her responsibility.Someone pointed her to the Provincial People's Congress to find Director Liu.After carefully reading all the supporting materials she brought, including the award certificate and the certificate of her husband's meritorious service, the elder sister immediately called the director of the Provincial Family Planning Commission and said clearly: After the investigation is implemented, it will be resolved as soon as possible according to the policy. A comrade who listens to the Party.Only by ensuring the continuity of the family planning policy and winning the trust of the people can this basic national policy be fully implemented. The masses came to visit and write letters, and the elder sister demanded that everything should be dealt with.The staff of the relevant government departments clearly know that director Liu's instructions and inquiries must have a result, and football cannot be played.If she is perfunctory, she will ask.When encountering a request that does not meet the policy, the eldest sister will flatly refuse. In 2003, a relative in Zhidan County asked the eldest sister to arrange an "iron rice bowl" for her son who was in the second year of high school in the government.The eldest sister patiently explained to her the conditions and procedures of civil servant recruitment, and made it clear that this matter violated the policy and could not be done.The relative didn't understand, and murmured in a low voice: With so much power in your hand, people say you can do it, why don't you say you can't do it?If he knew that one of the elder sister's two children was in a labor service company and the other was a contract worker who was self-reliant, would he still make this request? "Power is for the people." As a public servant of the people, Sister Liu is well aware of the ardent expectations placed on her by 37 million people when they elected her.The eldest sister hates incidents that endanger the interests of the general public, and she will never show mercy, and she will do her best to urge the government to investigate and deal with it. In 1985, Jinjiang was flooded with counterfeit medicines, and some people spread the theory of "harmless counterfeit medicines" in an attempt to influence the investigation.The eldest sister said loudly: "Some people say that fake medicines in Jinjiang are harmless, and I don't agree with them. Fake medicines can delay the disease, and they are also killing money and killing people. We can't ignore it!" She led relevant department officials to investigate Baoji and urged the government to increase The intensity of the investigation made the case quickly investigated and closed.She also draws inferences from one instance, and members of the Provincial People's Congress went deep into 10 prefectures and cities in the province for investigation and research, supervised the investigation of people and events related to the production and sale of counterfeit drugs, and supervised the destruction of counterfeit drugs.Afterwards, the Science, Education, Culture and Health Committee of the Provincial People's Congress under her supervision suggested that the Standing Committee of the Provincial People's Congress listen to the government's report and made a provincial resolution of "Five Requirements for Strengthening Drug Management", and urged the provincial government to formulate a series of relevant policies, from a macro perspective On the one hand, the management of the province's pharmaceutical market has been strengthened. In 1990, Sister Lizhen and some members of the Provincial People's Congress conducted a special investigation on the medical ethics and ethics of more than ten hospitals in Xi'an and other cities, and urged the government's functional departments to formulate regulations on strengthening management, correcting regulations including when hospitals purchase medicines. Asking for "kickbacks", not buying from local state-owned pharmaceutical companies for personal gain, and other unhealthy practices in the industry have investigated and dealt with a small number of illegal behaviors of hospital preparation rooms selling preparations in the market. In 1991, Sister Lizhen, who was over 62 years old, and members of the Education, Science, Culture and Health Committee of the Provincial People's Congress conducted a special investigation on the lack of medical care and medicine in rural areas, and found that it was still very difficult for a small number of people in remote mountainous areas to buy medicine for treatment.In this regard, she felt deeply guilty and said: "I have failed the people's great trust!" She and the committee members suggested to the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress to listen to the government's report on rural health work.At the meeting, members of the Standing Committee were very concerned about the lack of investment in rural health care, lack of personnel, and the disintegration of some local grassroots health networks, and asked the government to take practical measures to resolve it as soon as possible.After taking up the leadership position, although Sister Lizhen lost the opportunity to directly treat the masses, she gained a "scepter" to protect the interests of the people.She always reminded herself: Take Premier Zhou as an example and devote myself to the people.During her 14 years in office, she and members of the National People's Congress carefully supervised the provincial government's medical and health work in accordance with the rights endowed by the Constitution. In accordance with relevant national laws and regulations and combined with the actual situation of Shaanxi Province, she improved local legislation and promoted the province's medical and health work. development of.Having said that, the topic turns to today's social ills that counterfeit drugs are repeatedly banned.The eldest sister said meaningfully: "Those who hold the power of drug administrative law enforcement, as long as they never forget who granted the power and for whom the power is for, there is no need to worry about counterfeit drugs!" After the eldest sister retired from the front line, she served as the president of the Association for the Promotion of the Construction of Old Areas in Northern Shaanxi. She has a stronger sense of public servant and always pays attention to the suffering and safety of the people.Last year, there was an earthquake in Wenchuan, Sichuan. On May 19, I came to ask my elder sister to write a letter for the food and drug supervision system on the frontline of Hanzhong's disaster relief.Seeing that the elder sister was wearing plain clothes, black cloth shoes, and white socks, I was stunned for a moment. The elder sister looked at me with unconfused eyes and said to me softly: "I will wear mourning for the victims of the Wenchuan earthquake." My heart trembled.Dai Xiao, this is a great gift for mourning among blood relatives of the Chinese nation. You give it to ordinary people who have no blood relationship. How can your profound love for the people not move people!On weekdays, the elder sister who seldom writes inscriptions, at this special moment, wrote on the rice paper several vigorous characters "Promote the spirit of the Red Army and fight on the front line for disaster relief".The next day, I sent the characters to Hanzhong amidst the constant aftershocks. In September, Wang Jianwen, a descendant of the old Red Army and director of the Hanzhong Food and Drug Administration, was awarded the title of "Advanced Individual in Earthquake Relief in the National Drug Administration System".The eldest sister's inscription has a satisfactory return. The setting sun shines through the window lattice on the bonsai of the old pine in the living room.The octogenarian eldest sister is not tired, and narrates the past events with a strong sense of public servant.From time to time, I would interject and describe the details of the past events that I had experienced together with my eldest sister, so that the past events could clearly and vividly reappear in front of my eyes.I am moved and admired by the memories of my sister’s collection, and I am infinitely impressed. If the public servants in office can put the people in their hearts like my sister, they will have a clear conscience and people’s lives will be better.The eldest sister said sincerely: "The people have nurtured me, the motherland has nurtured me, and the party trusts me. I wish the motherland a strong, the people happy, and the society harmonious. As long as I am alive, I will do my best to serve the people." On December 3, 1997, Xi Zhongxun, a proletarian revolutionist of the older generation, commented on Liu Lizhen in the preface of the book "Shaanxi Revolutionary Old Area": ​​"After she stepped down from the position of deputy director of the Provincial People's Congress, she is still working hard for the construction of the old area. People admire." I was invited to participate in the funeral of Mrs. Liu Zhidan and Gui Ronggui’s return to Zhidan in June 1999, the centennial celebration of Liu Zhidan in September 2003, the 70th anniversary celebration of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the Chinese Soviet Republic’s stationing in security and the victory of the Red Army’s Long March in October 2006, and November 2006. In November 2008, the statue of Liu Zhidan was completed and unveiled in Xi'an, and the concert caroling Liu Zhidan was held. In November 2008, the symposium on the 105th anniversary of Liu Zhidan's birth was held.During these activities, I met many of Liu Zhidan’s comrades-in-arms, relatives, old Red Army, veteran cadres, ordinary people, and experts and scholars engaged in party history research. The most common sentence they said was: "Zhidan's daughter is really like Zhidan." "Zhidan's daughter is really like Zhidan. The most similar thing is: the father and daughter have a deep love for the people and the motherland." I said so.
