Chapter Thirty-Four: The Holidays, a Rare Time to Rest

This year is the Year of the Ox, and today is the last day of the Year of the Ox. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

In the afternoon, the first team organized all the trainees to watch the TV series "Lieutenant in His Twenties," which is another film that reflects the life of grassroots units after "Soldiers Are Eighteen or Nineteen This Year."

Yang Wenbin was enthusiastic when he saw it, and the life in the military camp on TV was so desirable.

Colorful flags fluttered and red lights hung high in the barracks, full of festive atmosphere.

This is another major festival ushered in by the barracks after the "Eleventh Day", and it is also the first New Year spent after entering the barracks.

The new year is approaching, and the squeak of rats is still ringing in my ears.

People from all walks of life across the country are busy preparing for the New Year.

As I grow older, many precious and interesting things in my memories are recalled.

I remember the earliest year to celebrate the New Year collectively, or the New Year's Day of the third year of junior high school, the students of the third (second) class of junior high school, under the organization of the head teacher Mr. Wang, held the first party in their lives, and had dinner in the class at night, and twisted their butts to follow the music for a night, and returned home the next day with a deep sleep.

The New Year's Day of the first year I left home was spent in a coal city. That day was Yang Wenbin's birthday.

Together with his best friend in the dormitory, Bi Ligetu, he spent a few dollars, walked around the commercial streets in the county, watched the video for a long time, and came back in the evening, so he participated in the New Year's party in the class, as if he sang a song with the fellow villagers, the very popular song of the year, "Asian Heroes", of course, has been changed by them, how to change it, now I can't remember.

The following year, the school moved to the city, and the New Year was really lively. He seemed to have prepared a humor called Chili, that is, "I prepared a gun, a wooden ......", which really made the classmates laugh out of their stomachs.

On the New Year's Day of the third year, of course, it was still a party, at which he seemed to sing "Three Hundred and Sixty-Five Blessings" and had a good time.

At the New Year's party in the fourth year, the boys in their dormitory prepared a group dance, only to see the dust flying, everyone was confused to accompany the music on the stage, and similarly, he took the stage and offered sincere blessings to the teachers and classmates.

I remembered that on the New Year's Day of the first year, 10 people from the villagers sang "We Lizhou" together, the local sound, which connected their hearts together, and played such a significant role in the future, he may be the biggest beneficiary.

On New Year's Day in the first year of college, it was in Ben Cheng, in the men's dormitory, and the ten brothers in the dormitory were happily cheering in the dormitory. I couldn't support it anymore, so I staggered up the back mountain, so that when Mr. Li came to visit everyone, he fell asleep on the bed, and after waking up, he recorded a special for the boys' gala in the dormitory.

On the New Year's Day of the second year, the male eldest brother in the same dormitory was in charge, and the eldest brother's girlfriend "female eldest brother" chopped vegetables, had fun, and was reunited, and brought three little "elves and ghosts", and men and women spent New Year's Day together. The wine is not drunk, the people have dispersed, busy coming and going, confused, and turning.

On the New Year's Day of the third year, it was so difficult, there was no party, no singing, no class dinner, falling in love, and those who had objects left in pairs. Only single people are bored, depressed, lonely, cups come and go, begging for joy in suffering, and living meaninglessly, because innocence has been too far away, and the only thing left is venting and perfunctory.

The New Year's Day of the fourth year was spent in review.

Looking back on the year of graduation, it was a major turning point in Yang Wenbin's life.

At the beginning of the new year, he was busy with the mountains and literature, and struggled to get a graduate student. Finally fought through the three days of the sprint, no matter what, completed the old wish.

followed by days and nights of rushing for work: anxious waiting after going to the provincial middle school for an interview, the provincial party committee organization department selected the cadres to pass the test, and then failed in the retest, and the name fell to Sun Shan; Fate pushed him to the barracks, which came from a place that he didn't think was for him. Nervously came to the barracks, changed from a soldier to a cadet, and passed by in a flick of a finger.

What should Yang Wenbin, who joined the army after graduating from university, do?

Whether he is suitable for cadre work or not, and what is his inferiority?

He recalled the bitter past when he was a cadre, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of feelings.

I think I was the class president when I was in elementary school, so dogmatic, so conservative, so serious, and so responsible.

The homeroom teacher trained himself not to go back at noon, so he obediently waited for the teacher to go to work in the afternoon.

The teacher said that if he didn't ring the bell at noon, he was not allowed to leave class, and he was not allowed to go home.

In junior high school, he still told the truth to the teacher when he had something, so he offended the son of the director of the cement factory and the young master of the secretary of the ceramic factory.

What was the result, others said that I would cry you again a day, but he had to endure it, knock out his front teeth and swallow it in his stomach, humiliation and nesting!

When he became a middle teacher, he had ideological resistance, unwilling to be a cadre, unwilling to offend people, and good for all.

However, because of his good academic performance, he served as an organization committee member and a life committee. After half a year, the teacher said, I am very dissatisfied with your work for half a year. said that he "occupies the pit and does not". He was angry, distressed, and helpless. What's the difference?

He learned from the pain, worked in the school committee for two years, was selfless, and finally won everyone's recognition and approval, and found his own value.

When he arrived at university, he actively expressed himself, studied hard, and had good relationships with teachers and classmates.

Finally, in the first year, he was elected as a member of the study committee of the class and directed the historical drama "Jing Ke Assassinates the King of Qin".

In the second year, he entered the Propaganda Department of the Student Union of the department and became a deputy minister and minister.

During this period, he did his best for his work.

Out of the big propaganda board, writing blackboard newspapers, which time he was not busy running before and after, tired to death, for work, he always wanted to do better.

However, objectively speaking, the publicity work of the department has accumulated deep drawbacks, and it has been done in the past, and it is not easy to be ingenious and renovate.

However, the propaganda work is the hero behind the scenes, and the results are well organized by the organizers; smashed, because the level of the specific responsible person is too low and the quality is too inferior.

Of course, first of all, we have to admit that as a candidate for propaganda minister, he may not be suitable, except for having a beautiful hand and good words that everyone praises.

There is no endless talking, up and down, exquisite eloquence on all sides, and there is no pen through China and foreign countries, meaning the ancient and modern, sprinkled, and a wave of the pen.

Second, he will not use talent appropriately and harness talent. Unable to communicate extensively, well-informed and ambitious, and narrow in communication; Narrow-faced, always thinking for others when encountering problems, wrong ideas, indecisiveness, and weak thinking ability.

Thirdly, it is true that it is conservative and does not want to innovate and forge ahead; Moreover, it is true that he lacks that kind of political acumen, has weak judgment, and is easily deceived by appearances.

At that time, he felt that he was really not suitable for being a cadre, and he could only be managed by others, but he could not manage others.

So, go and become a scholar and do research work!

However, his foreign language remained at such a low level and stagnated. If you lose it, the struggle will be in vain, and the result will be nothing.

took the foreign language test, passed the third level, passed the fourth level, and applied for graduate school, but the reality made him hit the south wall, and he couldn't be a scholar.

Become a teacher and spend the rest of your life honestly, ordinarily, and silently! is also unwilling.

In the face of harsh reality, he seemed so weak and powerless.

But, in the end, he chose to follow Rong.

"It's only suitable for being friends, not for lovers" The evaluation of his best friend made him sad.

Is this really what it looks like?

Maybe the soil and environment of the big city are really not suitable for themselves; He is the same as Yin Chen Naxi in the 19th century, he can only be sad and compassionate, and cry in vain, but Yin Chen Naxi has written a masterpiece of "saying green history in the red pavilion, and red clouds and tears are sprinkled on a floor", and what about himself?

He belongs to the land in the northeast, where there are his roots!

That barren land! That alluring land! The birthplace of an ancient civilization!

Time has entered the 90s of the 20th century, and the dawn of the 21st century is beckoning to itself. What to do?

Get up, admit the reality, admit the differences, choose the right goal, be down-to-earth, go high and go far!

All men are created equal, at least spiritually. His tomorrow belongs to him, and he can only rely on himself.

Ambitious but not sure what to do and what to do?

He lacks self-confidence, pays attention to reality, is clumsy in speech, and has a weak will, is rigid and lazy. If you want to make a difference, you must improve your own quality, self-confidence, independent opinions and perseverance to carry it out.

It takes a certain amount of time to change oneself, if you can't succeed, if you conform to your own character, you have to bend your will, push the boat along the water, duplicity, praise others, improve yourself, and find a stable backer for personal gain.

He didn't want that from the bottom of his heart. Otherwise, or go with the flow, go with the flow, and spend the rest of your life in the ordinary, unremarkable.

From brigade commanders to military instructors, they have all tried to make them better understand the grassroots units and understand the difficulties and twists and turns on the road ahead.

The grassroots level is neither as good as he imagined, nor as bad as he imagined, and he is full of confidence and expectation for continuing to work.

Sun Ziyun: "Treat the pawn as a baby, so you can go to the deep friendship with it; Treat the pawn as a beloved son, so he can die with him; If the pawn is not attached to the punishment in person, he will not accept it, and if he does not accept it, it will be difficult to use; If the pawn has been attached to the family and the punishment is not good, it is not available. Therefore, it is necessary to order it to be written and to use force. This is the way to lead the troops. ”

The barracks are a melting pot, and how to get started depends on practice. No matter how bad the environment is, we should position ourselves as "carrying a pen from Rong", rather than "throwing a pen from Rong". This is crucial.

He made up his mind:

First, grasp the pulse of the times, keep up with the trend of the times, strive to be the trendsetter of the times, and bring realistic and long-term benefits to the people without violating the historical trend;

The second is to be honest and bright, full of self-confidence, not humble and upright, dare to hate, dare to love, dare to be angry and dare to scold, do not like things, do not grieve with things, and be open-minded.

At present, all we can do is to use our brains to think more about problems, to understand more about society, to express our hearts directly, to dare to hate and love, to express our intentions, and to let action compose further things!

In 110 minutes, it's New Year. There should have been many summaries and reviews of the old and the new, but time did not allow him to carefully organize his thoughts and write down every trace of his thoughts......
