While many classes and groups in Beijing are abiding by the law and enjoying their own lives leisurely according to their own ideas, Chongming Island in Shanghai is undergoing a major movement and reclamation.

Many people in the main plane know that in the late 50s and early 60s of the 20th century, due to a series of decision-making mistakes, the economy of the new Yanhuang Republic experienced serious difficulties. To put it simply, there is not enough food to eat, and people start to starve to death. Therefore, at that time, the Yanhuang Central Committee required all localities to "run agriculture and grain on a large scale", but for the industrial city of Shanghai at that time, there was no food on the asphalt road, but solving the problem of feeding millions of people was a top priority and a top priority. Therefore, in that year, after Shanghai had just built the first 10,000-ton giant ship "Dongfeng" in the New Yanhuang Republic, one of its voyage missions was not to visit a long voyage, but to immediately go to Qingdao and Jinhai to rush to transport Chinese cabbage to supply the Shanghai market.

At that time, in order to solve the problem of vegetable baskets and rice bags for the common people in the 60s, and to overcome the objective reality that Shanghai had many people and little land, the Shanghai government decided to ask for land from the sea and from the barren beach. More than 100,000 people were mobilized throughout Shanghai to reclaim tidal flats and wasteland in Chongming Island, Nanhui, Baoshan, Fengxian and other places, thus increasing the supply of agricultural and sideline products throughout Shanghai. At that time, although they were poor and bitter, the Yanhuang people who had new dreams seemed to have inexhaustible strength and eternal passion. In the years when they were burning with the passion of dedicating themselves to a strong country, more than tens of thousands of people volunteered to go to Chongming Island alone, including government officials, teachers, workers, students, shop assistants, and young people in society.

Some of the applicants were under the age of 16, and some of them had not yet been born with their own children, but no one complained, and everyone set off with backpacks and mesh bags for washbasins. At that time, there was nothing left on Chongming Island, so all the reclamation members cut reeds and used them as materials for building houses, making tables for eating, and building shacks for sleeping. When there were no beds, the reeds were spread thicker, and often more than 600 people slept on their sideways in the Chase bunk.

You must know that reclamation is an extremely physically demanding job, and it stands to reason that you should eat a little better. But in the years when Yanhuang's social economy was on the verge of collapse, how could there be any surplus materials available? Even the three eastern provinces, known as the granary of Yanhuang, are starving to death! Therefore, no matter how hard the reclamation work is, the government cannot afford to increase even the slightest food supply. In addition, because many people left their homes with only food stamps, and left food stamps and meat stamps for the rest of the family, the number of people suffering from edema accounted for 50 or 60 percent of the total number of people in the entire reclamation battle after a few months of reclamation.

"I drove a tractor during the day, and sometimes I had to drive it at night, and my mouth was so dry that I went to the ditch to get water to drink, and the next morning I saw that the ditch was full of maggots, and I was disgusted when I saw it, and I regretted that I had drunk all the dirty water. At that time, we were really dedicated to reclamation, and the work was desperate, indeed desperate. ”

"It's all about a flat shoulder, two shoulders, a pair of mud baskets, a load of mud to pick up, and do it desperately. In the winter, we did the same in the snow and ice, and it was not easy to walk in the mud with shoes, so we played barefoot, and we were really hard, indeed hard. ”

"I remember a guy named Li Dongru, the secretary of the district party committee of which district, and a district chief surnamed Zhou, jumped into the river, and at that time, what a god, how cold, blocked the water, and then pushed the straw bales down with mud, to fill the gap, so that the dam could close. At that time, I also jumped into the icy water, and people are so spiritual. Many leading cadres are really charging ahead. I feel that in that place and in that era, there was a kind of strength of the party, the power of exemplary party members, and the strength of leading cadres, which really touched people. ”

At the end of the 20th century, these old people, who had lost their youth, were still full of emotion and generosity when they recalled those years of burning passion. For them, the kind of dedication and dedication of the 50s and 60s is a complex, a symbol, and a spirit, which is what many young generations today cannot understand and the whole society lacks the most. In later generations, when studying the history of the Red Party, many experts and scholars often grasped a certain big figure and a certain fragment to write a special book, but they rarely mentioned the life and work of many ordinary people at that time.

In the 21st century of the main plane, people are busy earning money, their hearts are empty, and their faith is lacking, isn't it the best commentary and reflection on the fifties and sixties?

The first target plane, Yanhuang Continent, Chongming Island, Shanghai.

Due to the large amount of food provided by Wang Fan, there was absolutely no problem with the food supply of the entire Yanhuang Continent. But Wang Fan is not a god, and most of what he brings is non-perishable rice, flour, etc. For vegetables with poor freshness, they can only rely on local provinces and cities to find their own ways.

Since Shanghai has just been liberated, both the vegetable planting area and the types of vegetables are very small, so many people in Shanghai have very little room for choice in dishes. Therefore, different from the main plane in those years and months in order to "survive", but in order to "live" better and more flavorful in the first target plane, the Shanghai District Party Committee and District Government also made slogans and actions to ask for land from the sea, so the reclamation action of Chongming Island began more than ten years in advance.

Chongming Island in 1944 covered an area of more than 600 square kilometers, and the size was only about half of the more than 1,200 square kilometers of Chongming Island in 2014. Like the history of the main plane, it is the same barren and reed-filled land. But the difference is that the number of people participating in the battle this time was only more than 7,000, and they did not hold red flags, carry basins, and walk slowly in a neat long line. Most of them arrived at the scene in trucks. Hundreds of experienced drivers arrived by transport ships with tractors, excavators, ploughers, rollers, truck-mounted generators, concrete mixers, etc. Along with these equipment, more than 200,000 tons of sand, asphalt, and hundreds of prefabricated houses arrived, and in just one week, 23 engineering camps across the island began to take shape. Each construction site is equipped with drinking water purifiers, a unified canteen and bathhouse, and at least one hygienist who knows how to provide medical emergency knowledge.

"Don't fight unprepared battles!" Comrade Chen Yi, secretary of the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee (concurrently), specially emphasized when approving the Chongming Island reclamation project.

"We need to do a good job while ensuring quality and the safety and health of our engineering staff." Tang Wei (Wang Fan disguised) always emphasized every time he held a meeting: "There is no point in completing the project ahead of schedule, since the construction period has been calculated through scientific methods, it is necessary to shift the focus from rushing the construction period and rushing the construction period to improving the quality of the building." Do a 100-year project! A high-quality project that blesses future generations is far greater than several tofu slag projects! ”

"Any waste of resources caused by quality problems, the general person in charge of the project will bear the primary responsibility, even if it is not discovered at the time, it will be found more than ten years later, and it will be held accountable!"

"Quality not quantity, protecting people's livelihood is more important than black yarn!"

"Any quality problem caused by rushing to meet the construction deadline should be arrested and sentenced!"

In the new Yanhuang Democratic Republic, due to the attention and guidance of the highest level, the entire Yanhuang society began to respect the objective laws of nature, attach importance to field test data, and pay attention to ways and means.

"Comrades, come on~~"

"Hey, hey, hey~hey, hey~"

"The Red Party is for the people, the people help everyone, work together to create a new Yanhuang."

After the start of construction, one after another trumpets spread all over the construction site, and the workers at the construction site sweated one after another, the workers here were very hardworking, and the people here were very happy.

At night, in a certain camp on Chongming Island, the reclamation workers were resting after a hard day's work.

"Master Pu, how do you get this machine? I'm not going to do it. Although he got off work, Xiao Zhao, a 19-year-old general worker who cherished every minute of his time, asked in a strong Shanghai local dialect. He is taking the time to familiarize himself with the new machine and learn new knowledge.

"The gears here need to be adjusted outwards a little bit, and the numbers here represent hydraulics, you see, its scale now shows" Master Pu, who has been trained for many years and has a solid workmanship, taught without reservation.

In old Shanghai, apprentices were like mastering a craft, and they had to eat "three years of dried radish rice". It is a Shanghai slang phrase, to the effect that it takes a period of hardship to truly master a craft. In the old society, after mastering the industrial skills of lathes, fitters, and planers, and honing them for a few years, they had the foundation to work hard and live in Shanghai. Therefore, the word master is very precious. It is not called casually, being called a master not only contains respect and recognition of its craftsmanship, but also expresses the gratitude of the master for giving him a survival ability.

Late at night, inside the camp dormitory.

"Liu Fei, I heard that your sister has enrolled in a health training class?" Master Pu, who shared a room with his apprentices, chattered.

"Yes, master, she wants to learn about medicine. Last time, my grandmother suddenly fainted on the street, and was taken to the hospital by passers-by to find out that it was a sudden emergency, and if it was delayed, her life would be gone. And the doctor also said that you also need to eat and pay attention to it reasonably, otherwise there is a high possibility of recidivism. That's why my sister wants to study medicine, so that she can take care of her grandmother in addition to work. ”

"As long as it works. As long as you really master the technology and knowledge, you can get the same level of salary as the mayor of Shanghai (Wang Fan refers to the eight-level labor system established by later generations). The house is also distributed according to the person, there is no burden, you can do whatever you want, which is good. ”

"Well, it's better to be a new government, compared to two years ago, the current days are really a heaven and an earth." Thinking of Liu Fei, who used to live in the shack, he sighed and sighed.

"So you have to study hard, master the real skills, repay the society, people must have a conscience, and know how to repay kindness."

"Yes, master!"

In 1944, the blood of the people was hot in the entire Yanhuang land of the First Target Plane. There will be no messy things in the future: for a while, they are afraid of the nuclear radiation caused by the accident at the Japanese nuclear power plant, and blindly rush to buy salt after listening to the message; After a while, the old lady was bitten back by the old lady because she helped the old lady who fell to the ground, so that there was a saying of "anti-theft, anti-theft, anti-old lady" in the main society; There is also a two-year-old girl in Foshan who was run over by a vehicle and lay in a pool of blood, while more than 10 passers-by walked away indifferently.

1944 was a year of burning passion, and the blood of the Yanhuang nation in 1944 was not cold!
