Chapter 13 Appendices on the Creation of "Eternal Mangroves"

I don't know if it's a coincidence.On May 1st two years ago, I was writing about a cadre of the Communist Party Disciplinary Committee named Liang Yushun.His deeds made me feel compelled to write, because from him I found the image of a communist who can truly serve the people that I have been looking for.Thus a reportage was born, which aroused the love of readers, and Liang Yurun became a household name in the whole country. Last year, he was selected by CCTV as one of the "Top Ten Persons of the Year Who Moved China in 2003".The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection soon issued a notice to the entire party to learn from him.This year's "May 1st", I met another writing subject named Liang.His name is Liang Yanshun, a young scholar engaged in philosophy and social sciences.He also made me have to put aside the long vacation I had arranged with my family on May Day and immerse myself in interviews and writing.

The "May 1st" long holiday has once again become my real "Labor Day"-I can't rest for a day.As an amateur writer, I almost never have this concept of "long vacation".Isn't it, last year's "May 1st", Beijing was in the critical moment of "SARS", and I was also busy with front-line interviews... But the two writing subjects surnamed Liang made me feel the excitement and excitement of literary creation.I can't stop writing and go to a field that I am not familiar with or completely unfamiliar.The results are often satisfactory.

"Forever Mangrove" is another satisfactory result.Although I feel very tired - I have to interview and create again, and the time is so short.But I am used to it. Reportage writers have no rest, no leisure, let alone the freedom and leisure like novelists.Our emotions follow the emotions of others, jump with the times, and rise and fall with the ups and downs of life... We belong to this reality, this society, and this vivid world that needs us to record.... Liang Yanshun is a quiet scholar, unassuming. His job is to draft documents and speeches for others all day long. Although his theoretical research has been paid attention to and valued by foreign experts of the Nobel Prize in economics a few years ago, but People in China still know almost nothing about him.This is related to his own personality, and more related to our social, economic and political environment in the past few years-we have been striving for a high-speed development of GDP for many years, which is not wrong in itself-development is the last word, The basic tasks of reform and opening up and socialism with Chinese characteristics determined by Deng Xiaoping are to develop the national economy and improve people's living standards.But by what kind of development, at what speed, and at what price, many people don’t particularly study things, or people don’t want to think about it for various reasons—it is said that the initial stage of capital accumulation allows all kinds of capital accumulation. There are various development models, but China is a country with scarce resources and a large population. The development we face must be based on our own national conditions, especially today's economy is a globalized economy. What kind of method and price do you use to develop the economy? , It is not only related to your country's affairs, let alone a region's affairs.Today's development is often related to the overall situation, the whole country, and even the world.China's economic development today so proves this.Therefore, Liang Yanshun, as a sober scholar, after I understand his theory, I think his significance is too important: development should pay attention to the cost, and the cost must be calculated, and not paying attention to the cost means not paying attention to the cost. development?Absolutely not.What's more, mankind has been facing increasingly serious problems of resources, population and environment. How to achieve sustainable development and whether we can live together in the "global village" for a long time is no longer a small matter for one country or one person!It is the most serious problem that mankind has faced in the history of mankind.What is anti-terrorism, what is hegemonism, what is the confrontation between the East and the West, in the final analysis, it is a dream that all human beings are pursuing today to strive for the resources available for their own development and the space that can be used at the lowest cost to achieve their own rich goals.This is true in the Western world, and it is also true in the Eastern world.

Liang Yanshun's research results and his low-cost economic growth theory make me feel very meaningful. It has more realistic and historical significance than the "Goldbach Conjecture" studied by Chen Jingrun back then.There are billions of people in the world and 1.3 billion people in China. We dream of eating better, living a better life, and tomorrow will be better. Isn’t this development the most important thing for each of us!But the reality makes us feel nervous, fearful and uneasy: environmental pollution—the river water is inedible, the sky is not clear, the forest is gone, the birds are flying away, the green land is replaced by concrete land, can our homes still live?Electricity needs to be turned off, the price of water is constantly increasing, and the roads are getting more and more congested...All of this makes us feel that we have more and more money on the one hand, and on the other hand, the quality of life is getting worse and worse.Why is that?We're thinking, but we can't come to a conclusion.Oh——the original problem lies in not paying attention to the cost. The cost is not only the cost in economic operations, but also cultural, ideological, moral, etc., etc., etc.Liang Yanshun's theoretical proposals and theoretical achievements made people feel meaningful and significant, and felt that they coincided with the "Scientific Outlook on Development" proposed by the Party Central Committee as General Secretary Hu Jintao!

The price is a heavy topic, it is an issue related to the future of national development, it is related to the future direction and living space of China, it is related to the overall issue of whether we can be truly accepted by the world, it is related to the quality of life of each of us nowadays and our children and grandchildren.I was so excited and serious.Interviews and writing also became tense and intense, and I asked myself to complete them as soon as possible.Because the real social development has entered a fast track, the issue of cost must be paid great attention by people, especially decision-makers from all walks of life. The sooner everyone can understand its profound meaning, the better.

Liang Yanshun presented his research results, which were a doctoral dissertation with more than 100,000 words and a book published by People's Publishing House.I want to figure it out, I want to ask for advice, I want to talk to him personally, I also want to talk to his mentor, and I have to learn from the beginning and understand what is the cost. What is the difference between high-cost economic growth and low-cost economic growth? Where, what is the difference between China's development and the world's development?Oh, although this kind of learning is urgent, it must be understood, must be understood, and must be full of emotion and image.But the theory is boring, and Liang Yanshun's research process itself is carried out in silence, but when I plunged into it, I saw the image of a young scholar profusely exploring, the brave actions of a fearless man, and the profoundness of a wise man. Thinking and his difficult spirit of seeking.Then I seemed to feel that the theoretical world was still colorful and passionate, and it still made me excited, angry, and thoughtful at times.In this seemingly boring world, I found the joy of a literary creator. Like other reportage creations, Liang Yanshun’s theoretical research made me feel a responsibility, a literary responsibility: why many excellent research results, Why didn't many excellent characters come out and were not recognized by people?No one digs, no one describes with a vivid pen, and no one shows it with the special charm of literature!Reportage has an irreplaceable role, and it can be replaced by non-television, non-fiction, non-drama, and non-news reports. I look forward to another creative practice of mine. It will benefit the people and this rapidly developing country and society. There is a contribution of a literary scholar - to write about the research achievements and other social significance of a theoretical worker in philosophy and social sciences.This is the complete motivation and motivation for me to work hard on the creation of "Forever Mangrove".

Too much life experience and too much frivolous reality have made me more and more unwilling to preach. I only wish to use my pen to do something worthy of the title of a writer and to do something beneficial to this society. thing. In the past few years, I have written several works, such as "National Action - Three Gorges Immigrants", "Battle of Beijing", etc., and won many national awards, but what I feel most gratified is Among my readers, there are both ordinary people and high-level decision-makers, and several works have influenced the country and the government's policy introduction in a certain aspect after publication. This makes me feel that the era of literary scholars is lucky, especially Feel the stylistic significance of reportage as the literary form that is closest to reality, the masses and life.

I would like to thank Guangming Daily. As a party newspaper, being able to publish a reportage work in a large space shows a special meaning in itself: we are all concerned about our common quality of life and the price of development in this era.A society that does not pay attention to price will certainly not achieve the ultimate valuable development; a good work can be published in an important newspaper, which itself will give literature a meaning beyond itself.
