Chapter 44: One-sided Public Opinion (Finish)
On July 2o, 1983, dozens of local newspapers, such as Shanghai Daily and Xi'an Daily, which had been paying attention to the discussion of "whether college students are worth digging for an old man", published their views and opinions on the editorial of the "Yangcheng Evening News" on July 19.
“…… For the college student who unfortunately died because of rescuing the dung digger who fell into the manure pit, his behavior is a concrete expression of social righteousness, celebrating his merits and vigorously publicizing his deeds, and such an act is precisely to inspire the young people and hundreds of millions of people across the country. ……”
-- Letter from a reader on the fourth page of Shanghai Daily
“…… In a long newsletter in the People's Daily, the deeds of Comrade Zhang Hua, a college student who died saving people, were recorded. For example, when Comrade Zhang Hua left the army to enroll in school, he carried a wooden box full of books, including "** Declaration", "Selected Works of Chairman Mao", "Questions and Answers on the Party's Basic Knowledge", "Fundamentals of Politics and Economics" and books on the ideological cultivation of young people. For example, when Comrade Zhang Hua was working on the farm, he once stopped a frightened cow and saved an NV youth. For example, Comrade Zhang Hua once jumped into a flood during the summer vacation to rescue the property of the people...... All reflect that Comrade Zhang Hua has never forgotten to arm himself with Marxism-Leninism and Chairman Mao Thought, and he is a good son of the party and a firm supporter of the party. His heroic sacrifice to save an old man he didn't know profoundly embodies Marxism and Chairman Mao's thoughts, linking the great sentiments of proletarian revolutionaries with the humanitarianism of capitalist society, which is inappropriate and requires some people's self-torture......"

"Yesterday's "Yangcheng Evening News" editorial proposed that China needs to respect individual rights and interests while strengthening the construction of national morality and the construction of the gods, and speculated that society will be morally degraded and the masses will become slaves of money in the process of exhibition...... ”

“…… Even if the old man is rescued, how many years will he live? What else can he contribute to society? …… What is the difference between the life of such an old man and the life of a vegetative person? At what point is the value of its life higher than a grass and a stone? And how precious is the value of a college student's life! He may go from bachelor's degree to master's degree to doctorate, postdoctoral fellow, professor, and expert scholar, and his contribution is not simply predictable......
Our reporter conducted a reader survey at a number of universities, and the views above represent the views of a considerable number of students. Facts show that the discussion of whether college students are worth saving the old man is not only worthy of discussion, but also the answer is clear. ”
-- Interview with a reporter from Zhejiang (I'm going) Youth Daily
Most of these newspapers and publications that have expressed their views on the editorials of the "Yangcheng Evening News" are second-rate news media, and for these newspapers, the views of the editorials of the "Yangcheng Evening News" are absolutely problematic, and they can rely on righteous words to refute the boss in the system without worrying about offending the "Yangcheng Evening News", which can not only enhance the status of their newspapers, but also attract more readers, and such a good thing naturally makes them the advance soldiers of this editorial incident.
Govin exhaled and put away all the newspapers on the table, I have to say that one of the biggest advantages of being in the editorial department of "Harvest" is that you can read most of the newspapers and magazines in the country for free.
Yesterday, I poured out the grievances in my heart to Nicole, which made Govin regain his previous tired appearance, but his mentality has been raised to a new level. He is strong, he is strong, the breeze caresses the hills, he is horizontal by him, the bright moon shines on the river, and Jin Yong's words written in the Heaven and Dragon Slayer can represent Gowen's mood at this moment.
But what made Govin feel strange was that the first-class newspapers, such as Guangming Daily and People's Daily, remained silent and did not express any opinion on the editorials of the Yangcheng Evening News. It stands to reason that this should be a good thing, and no news is not the best news. But the more this happens, the more worrying it becomes, and the newspapers either don't express their opinions, but if they do, it's going to be a final deal. Although he had never worked in a newspaper, Govin still knew that the reason why an important review catered to certain people in the system was that the article "Practice is the only test of truth" was also the result of a contest at the top level.
Glancing at the Guangming Daily and People's Daily on the table again, Govin folded all the newspapers, put them back on the bookshelf where the newspapers were stored, and then turned around and walked towards the large entrance of the editorial office. There is the mailbox of the editorial office of "Harvest", and the newspapers and magazines that the editorial department subscribes to at the post office are usually placed in it.
Sure enough, there was a new newspaper in the mailbox, and Govin didn't bother to go back, so he stood by the mailbox and looked at the "New Weekly Evening News" that had just been delivered. Then he appeared in a few comments on the editorial of the "Yangcheng Evening News". If the local newspapers that Govin had just read were merely denouncing the Yangcheng Evening News as misleading the masses and a serious dereliction of responsibility, then this commentary in the New Zhou Evening News directly put the Yangcheng Evening News in opposition to the opposition party's opposition to the government. Readers' Views, Expert Comments...... The "New Zhou Evening News", which has only 12 pages, devotes four pages to publishing a commentary criticizing the "Yangcheng Evening News".
Did the editor-in-chief of this newspaper get his head in water? As Govine's gaze swept over these comments one by one, he couldn't help but feel a burst of anger in his heart, this local newspaper in Shanghai, which has only been in the business for three months, simply wants to stand out by winning the attention of the group, and see what these comments are about!
Whether it is a letter from readers or a so-called expert in the theoretical and ideological circles, they all have the same views in their comments, and they all shout that the "Yangcheng Evening News" is inciting the masses and is the hypocrisy of promoting capitalism......
Among them, the most scathing point of view is a veteran critic named Duan Qigang, whose commentary in the "New Weekly" is absolutely jaw-dropping in terms of sharp language and bold content.
“…… As one of the largest magazines in the country, the "Yangcheng Evening News" went so far as to advocate the theory of personal life value in its editorials, and its reactionary features were superficial. As early as around 1957, China launched a great critique of bourgeois humanism. In this great debate, the theoretical circles have unified their pace and have always recognized that humanism is the reactionary landlord and bourgeois theory of people. Humanitarianism and class struggle are irreconcilable contradictions, and to say humanitarianism is class capitulationism and a betrayal of **! Now the "Yangcheng Evening News" has openly preached the god of humanitarianism, and such remarks and newspapers are spies lurking within the people, and they are ......"
cao! Gowen, who has always been very good-tempered, couldn't help but curse a dirty word when he saw this, he had never seen such a shameless one. This newspaper is simply shameless! What kind of editor-in-chief can make such an ugly appearance! also said that the "Yangcheng Evening News" misled the masses, Nima's, aren't these articles also misleading the masses!
The discussion on this matter in the editorial department is still continuing, and the news is flying all over the sky, both good and bad, and Govin has never seen these old men and old nv people are also such gossip.
So Govin spent the day in such an irritable mood.

ps1:
Let's play an interactive game:
Think of yourself as the editor-in-chief of a newspaper, who can have the rigid, rigid, dogmatic thinking of the 8o generation, or with a certain purpose (such as currying favor with a certain leader......
In any case, you have to express your opposition to the editorial of the Yangcheng Evening News in your own newspaper, well, as this chapter of traitors wrote.
It would be even better if there was a tube that could be brought into the theoretical and ideological circles and denigrate the editorials of the "Yangcheng Evening News" from a philosophical point of view.
If you are interested, you can leave a message in the book review area, write out the opinion of the newspaper you represent (just one paragraph, imitate the genre of the newspaper as much as possible, such as readers' letters, reviews, columns, etc.), and add the xx newspaper XX edition, as well as the name of the editor-in-chief you brought in.
If the paragraph is well written, the traitor will be included in this chapter, and the selected editor-in-chief will be regarded as a trick.
Reference: Baidu: Zhang Hua: A college student who sacrificed himself to save others (this is the source of the plot of the college student saving the old man who digs dung in Xiao Shuo, born in 1982)
Suddenly, I remembered such an activity, because the traitor now wants to write something deep, which is simply digging a hole for himself.
Why? Because the traitor has written it so far, this chapter is a bit unbearable. The newspaper opinions I wrote in this chapter are too different. Tear......
