The five-star red flag flutters in the wind, how loud the song of victory is, singing our dear motherland, and moving towards prosperity and strength from now on...——"Five-star red flag flutters in the wind"
As we all know, the five-star red flag is the national flag of our country. It is composed of five yellow stars. Although this structure looks very simple, it represents the dignity and soul of the motherland.
On October 1, 1949, when Tiananmen Square was rising slowly, the five-star red flag added infinite vitality to our country, and is the pride and pride of the people of the whole country.
However, many people know the five-star red flag, but they don’t know the origin of the five-star red flag and the meaning of the five stars on it. So, how did the five-star red flag come about? What do the five stars above represent? Today we will talk about the story.
When talking about the five-star red flag, we have to mention a person. His name is Zeng Liansong. When he was a child, he learned painting, but when he grew up, he threw his pen and joined the army and went to the battlefield.
Zeng Liansong
After experiencing the War of Resistance Against Japan and the War of Liberation, the New China finally ushered in independence and independence. At the same time, the founding ceremony of is also coming. At that time, Zeng Liansong participated in how to set up the national flag when our country solicited the whole people.
For a painting, inspiration does not mean that there is something, it requires certain opportunities and inspiration. At first, Zeng Liansong thought hard day and night, but there was no result that satisfies him, and the date of collecting the national flag was approaching day by day.
It was not until one night that Zeng Liansong got inspiration. At that time, he was playing one night and suddenly saw stars flashing in the night sky, as if the people, the leader of our party, were moving forward in the darkness and finally ushered in light.
Zeng Liansong Looking Star Conceived
Based on this inspiration, Zeng Liansong decided to design the national flag of our country based on the five-pointed star. Among them, the four small stars represent the working class, the peasant class, the urban petty bourgeoisie and the national bourgeoisie respectively.
One of the big stars represents our party. The flag of the national flag is chosen as red, which represents the passion and determination of the people's revolution. It can be said that the meaning is very good and it is also very representative.
Of course, the largest star in the five-star red flag was initially placed in the center, and the other four were distributed around. However, Zeng Liansong felt that this visual effect was not very good, so he finally placed the five-pointed star in the upper left corner of the national flag to finally determine the design.
Not long after, Zeng Liansong happily mailed his design to the Beijing preparation team and participated in the screening at that time. After many selections, Zeng Liansong's design has been through the difficulties and has arrived at the "finals" moment.
In fact, at this time, the five-star red flag designed by Zeng Liansong was not the best solution, or the votes were not the most. There is a No. 3 work that received 185 votes, while Zeng Liansong only had 15 votes, so it is obvious that he will be defeated.
However, at this time, someone expressed significance to this result. In the work No. 3, there is a "horizontal line" in the middle, which seems to separate the north and south. This meaning is not very good.
In contrast, Zeng Liansong's design, the four stars represent the people, and the stars surround the big stars, representing the great unity of the people, and following the leadership of our party, this meaning is even better. After these factors were raised, Peng Guanghan, , Chen Jiageng, and others believed that the meaning of "five-star red flag" was better.
Finally, the great man held a meeting and determined the consensus that the five-star red flag was the national flag. In this way, on October 1, 1949, the five-star red flag slowly rose on Tiananmen Square, entrusting the vision and expectations of countless people.
In general, Zeng Liansong's five-star red flag stands out among many works with beautiful meanings, and it can be regarded as having experienced hardships. Afterwards, he also wrote a poem, which was written as follows:
stands on the high tower and the high palace, and dances on the Tiananmen . The flowers are blooming in the peach season, and the sleeves are waving through the clouds and clouds.The clear sky is shaking, and the cold rain is even more visible. The frost remains bright red, and the road turns to the peak and sees a new sky.
