Time passed imperceptibly in the ordinary trivial daily life, and when another new semester was about to begin, the school's principal Han found Wang Hongju.

Principal Han said to Wang Hongju with a smile on his face: "Teacher Wang, recently there is a new leader in our county education bureau, tomorrow is the opening ceremony of the new semester of our school, and he will come to our school to inspect when he takes office, which shows that the new leader attaches great importance to our school!" It is said that when he visited the school, he also attended a teacher training class. I know that the teaching level of your Chinese class is the best in the whole school and even the whole town, I want you to give him a demonstration class, so that the bureau leaders know that the teaching level of our school is very high, what do you think? ”

Wang Hongju asked, "Oh, where is Director Hao of the County Education Bureau?" ”

"The person trained by the old education system was completely unsuitable for our educational work, and he was transferred from above."

Wang Hongju didn't understand this, "I don't understand, Director Hao was a top student majoring in teaching when he was young, and he has been trained by the organization for many years, why is he not suitable for education work?" ”

Principal Han said contemptuously: "His old-fashioned educational philosophy can't keep up with the development of the times at all!" ”

"Who is that new leader?" Wang Hongju was very interested in this.

"He is a northerner like you, a cadre transferred to a local area in the army, surnamed Li." Principal Han picked up a document from the table and said, "This is a document issued by the County Education Bureau, there is nothing to keep secret, you can take a look!" ”

Wang Hongju took the document and looked at it curiously, but as soon as he read two lines, he couldn't read it anymore. It turned out that the document clearly stated in black and white that the name of the new leader was Li Qiming. See his name. Wang Hongju's head became bigger all of a sudden! He blurted out, "It was him!" ”

"What, you know him?" Principal Han asked.

"Not only recognizable, but very familiar. This world is so small, I still haven't avoided him! Wang Hongju didn't want to look at the document anymore, so he slapped the paper on the table.

Principal Han looked at Wang Hongju puzzled, "Why do you have such an attitude towards the new leader?" ”

Wang Hongju said to Principal Han in a firm tone: "This Li Qiming, don't listen to my class, I'm not in the mood to let him enter my classroom, you better change someone!" ”

"You seem to have a prejudice against him, tell me, what the hell is going on?"

Wang Hongju shrugged his shoulders and said, "One is proud of being a big old man. People who looked down on intellectuals turned out to be leading cadres in charge of education. Can such a person manage education well? It's incredible! ”

When President Han saw Wang Hongju describe the new leader like this, he was very angry: "Wang Hongju, is there anyone like you who insults the leader like this? You don't know the depths, who can you put in your eyes? ”

"I didn't insult him! That's just the way it is. You'll get to know him as you work with him. ”

"Wang Hongju. You have been removed from your position as headmaster. But you're still an organizational person. The new leader was appointed by the organization, and we should resolutely support it, and it is inappropriate for you to sneer at Comrade Li Qiming. Say this to me. I can dismiss you, but don't talk nonsense! ”

"I'm just telling the truth about what I think, I'm not afraid of being heard! Please tell me, what is wrong with my words? ”

"If our party has the ability to overthrow the old society, it will be able to build and manage a new China! Comrade Wang Hongju, you are highly educated and a talented young talent, but this is not the capital that you look down on the workers and peasants, and your arrogant and conceited character is a fatal flaw in you, and it is also the common characteristic of the petty bourgeoisie. ”

Wang Hongju saw that Principal Han was angry, and suddenly realized that he was too straightforward and lacked a sense of proportion today, and he regretted it.

Principal Han instructed Wang Hongju again: "I'm very worried about your heart!" You've already been disciplined once, don't make mistakes again and again! ”

Although Principal Han said some of the words more ruthlessly, Wang Hongju knew that Principal Han loved him very much, and he nodded gratefully and agreed: "Principal Han, thank you for your concern and reminder to me!" I will try to keep my mouth in my breath in the future. ”

On the day of the beginning of the new school year, Li Qiming and several subordinates came to the school to inspect the work and participate in the opening ceremony of the day.

At the beginning of the opening ceremony, President Han first introduced Li Qiming, the new director of education, to all teachers and students, and all the teachers and students of the school applauded and expressed a warm welcome to the new leader.

Li Qiming stood on the high platform in front of the playground and looked down at the hundreds of teachers and students in the audience, he looked around the playground with blazing eyes for a week, and then greeted all the teachers and students with a loud voice: "Teachers, students, hello! ”

President Han, who was standing beside Li Qiming, applauded vigorously, followed by warm applause from the audience. Under the attention of all the teachers and students of the school, Li Qiming waved his arms and gave an impassioned speech, and his speech was very encouraging and infectious.

"Hello students! I am sincerely happy to see you children growing up happily under the sun, and at the same time I envy you! When you were so old, like other poor children, I was oppressed by the landlords and capitalists, and I lived a life that was inferior to the cattle and horses with insufficient food and clothing. At that time, I also dreamed of reading and writing, but in order to be able to eat a bite of food, I went to the coal mine with my father when I was thirteen or fourteen years old. Today you have books to read, this is the happiness brought to you by the new society, you must cherish this hard-won opportunity to study, you must work hard to learn revolutionary skills, and lay a good foundation for being qualified successors to the cause of the proletarian revolution in the future! After Li Qiming finished saying these words, he paused for a moment and glanced at the audience with blazing eyes, and he saw that all the teachers and students in the audience were looking at him with reverence, so he pointed to the students who were very close to him with a smile on his face and asked: "Little classmate, please tell me what you want to do when you grow up?" ”

The little boy replied shyly and whispered, "I don't know what to do." ”

After listening to this student's answer, Li Qiming smiled, and he asked loudly, "Students, can any of you answer my question?" ”

Some students said they wanted to be the People's Liberation Army, some said they wanted to be policemen, some said they wanted to drive airplanes, ships, trains and automobiles, some said they wanted to be scientists, writers, and some said they wanted to be doctors, movie stars, etc., and the students' answers were all kinds of what they wanted to do.

After listening to the students' answers, Li Qiming frowned, and he waved his other hand vigorously with one hand on his waist, "Students, you have a lot of ideals, but I don't think your answer is very satisfactory to me. If I were to rate your answers, only a few would pass! ”

Li Qiming's words made the teachers and students in the audience feel inexplicable, and some of them began to talk about it one after another.

Li Qiming saw that the teachers and students in the audience were puzzled by his words, so he inspired: "Students, please think about it, why can't I give full marks to your answers?" ”

Seeing that no one could answer this question, he gave his own answer: "You have everything you want to do when you grow up, and the answers are varied, except for a few classmates whose ideals of driving trains and cars are related to the working class, most of the classmates did not say that they want to be workers and farmers when they grow up!" ”

The teachers and students in the audience looked at Li Qiming with straight eyes, and there was no sound at all.

At this time, Li Qiming waved his hand and raised his voice and said: "I want to ask the students, where do you live if there are no workers to build houses and weave cloth for you, and no farmers to grow grain for you?" What do you wear? What do you eat? So I'm not satisfied with your answers! Let me tell you, the workers and peasants are the masters of our new China, the most glorious and greatest proletariat, and the first thing you have to do when you grow up is a glorious laborer! Those who look down on the workers and peasants, those who always want to become famous, get married, and get ahead, those who are not diligent in their limbs are the most unproductive! Without workers and peasants to feed them, they can't live a day! You're right? ”

"Yes!" The teachers and students in the audience replied loudly as if they were waking up from a dream.

Wang Hongju didn't quite understand Li Qiming's words, and he whispered to a colleague standing beside him: "Aren't we teachers considered glorious laborers?" Our teaching work is not labor? Besides, what's wrong with becoming famous and starting a family! ”

The colleague glanced at Wang Hongju in surprise and quickly made a gesture to shut up.

Li Qiming said to all the teachers in the school: "Teachers, you should know that all our educational work is to serve proletarian politics, and although we have overthrown the three mountains that pressed on the heads of the working people and driven out the Kuomintang reactionaries, the imperialists and reactionaries are not willing to accept their defeat, and they pin their hopes for restoration on our second and third generations. From the answers of the students just now, we can clearly see that most of our students are unwilling to work and farm when they grow up, which shows that they are afraid of hardship and tiredness and despise the idea of working people, and some students even want to become famous and start a family in the future. Comrades, we must be soberly aware that such ideological signs among the students are very dangerous! ”

The more Li Qiming spoke, the more excited he became: "Teachers and comrades, as the saying goes, we need to be strong in striking iron, and we must not only teach and educate people, but also strengthen our own political study and ideological transformation, and we must open up the bourgeois ideology in our minds. Only by studying politics well can we teach students well, and the burden on the shoulders of our educators is very heavy! ……”

Li Qiming's remarks resonated with the vast number of teachers and students, and the audience applauded continuously when Li Qiming spoke.

This time Li Qiming came to inspect the school, Wang Hongju did not show up to contact him, and even refused to give Li Qiming a demonstration Chinese class on the grounds of illness. Principal Han was very dissatisfied with Wang Hongju's approach, so he had no choice but to find a mathematics teacher to demonstrate a demonstration lesson for the bureau leaders.
