Chapter 149 Numerous Letters Lament the Suffering of the "Anti-Rightists"

After the publication of the book "Historical Elegy - The History of the Anti-Rightists", the author received a large number of letters from readers. These letters truly reflected the deep spiritual and physical trauma caused by the "Anti-Rightist Movement" to the "Little Rightists".There are many letters, and the general reflection is that there are too few "little rightists". Mr. Fang Wu sent a letter from Qinghai on July 3, 1997, saying: Mr. has written a good book and done a good deed.What is written in the book are all big rightists and middle rightists (that is, the famous rightists), and there are almost no small rightists.And the small rightists are precisely the ones with the largest number, the most miserable and unknown.I don't know if my husband can pay a little attention to the little rightists who are like ants, and say a few words for them...

Mr. Fang Wu himself was the "little rightist" back then.He said that from 1958 to 1961, a group of small rightists came from the south to reform through labor in Guinan, Qinghai.At first, the reservoir was built, but it was not completed. After it was withdrawn, it was opened up, planted crops, and built a farm. This field is called "Taxiu Farm".Mr. Fang Wu sent a series of poems "Qinghai Pickup", which described the misery of these "little rightists" who built reservoirs and labor reforms in Qinghai: Reader Xu Yuelin wrote from Wenzhou on April 6, 1996, expressing the same opinion as Mr. Fang Wu of Qinghai:

Recently, I want to donate the book "Historical Tragedy--The History of the Anti-Rightists" that I bought to my senior sister who is living in Tiantai, Zhejiang Province.After her husband was classified as a separate book in 1958, the senior sister herself was unswerving to the point of suffering. She was plagued by rheumatoid disease, and she still suffers from frequent attacks to this day. After reading "Historical Elegy: The History of the Anti-Rightists", I feel that it is necessary to update it when it is republished.Respecting the people and things stated is basically limited to thirty or forty prominent figures on the right, which inevitably makes "Historical Elegy-The End and End of the Anti-Rightist Movement" become a biography or a "masterpiece" of prominent figures on the right to a certain extent up.Although there are one or two examples of little people in the book, such as the surly fate of Li Tiande, after all, it is one of hundreds of thousands or even millions of little people, small cadres, small people, "little reptiles" rightists and quasi-rightists. millet.

It should be noted that none of the survivors of the rightists in the past struggled very hard in the face of danger! Of course, it is impossible (and unnecessary) for any writer to include everyone who is classified as a rightist in his works on the history of the anti-rightist movement, but I personally think that "Historical Elegy-The End and End of the Anti-Rightist Movement" should add a special chapter Regarding the general situation of many small rightists, sum up their various grounds for right planning, procedures, handling situations, various encounters and corrections over the past two decades, and so on.

Reader Xu Yuelin also pointed out: Respecting the list of famous rightists in the "Appendix" seems to be biased towards the field of humanities.There are many internationally renowned medical scientists in the field of natural science and medicine and health, such as Shanghai Qiu Zufa, who is also classified as a rightist.In Wenzhou, my teacher, Professor Jin Zhizhuang (the eldest son of the famous educator Jin Rongxuan), studied in the medical department of Imperial University of Japan in the 1930s. Out of patriotic enthusiasm and national integrity, Mr. resolutely gave up his studies and returned to China to participate in the national salvation work.Unexpectedly, in 1957, he was classified as a rightist.Afterwards, he suffered from liver cirrhosis and ascites, and was denied medical treatment, and died of injustice!
