1. The sorrow of the people of the whole country
His death caused shock to all walks of life in China and abroad, especially at home. The news of Chairman Mao’s death became a huge shock that was difficult for the people of the whole country to digest.
Because in that era, Chairman Mao slowly rose in the east of the world like a new sunrise. He led and guided the Chinese people to complete the anti-imperialist and anti-feudal movement, overthrew the three mountains that were pressing on the Chinese people, and established his own country and regime.
1939, Chairman Mao delivered a speech in Yan'an's "Anti-Great University"
He allowed the people to live a life of dignity and food and clothing, so the Chinese people are naturally the most sad about his departure.
Chairman Mao was most disgusted with others' personality cults for him. As early as 1975, Chairman Mao asked his secretary around him: "How long do you think I can live?" The staff around were afraid that he would be sad, so he comforted Chairman Mao and said: "You old man will live long."
But Chairman Mao shook his head seriously and said : "You shouldn't say things against your will in order to coax me. I know that you are all firm materialist , and so am I. A pure Marxist must have a materialistic view. How can a person not die in this world? I am the same."
Chairman Mao
Maybe it was to give people around him a vaccination in advance, or maybe it was because he really felt that he had reached the age of declining weather. Chairman Mao said this.
According to the staff around him, when Chairman Mao said these words, there was no sad look on his face, but instead he kept saying with a smile that this coincided with his optimism.
As we all know, Chairman Mao’s heroism and optimism are very admired by everyone.
When Red Army was the most difficult time, Chairman Mao said, "A spark can start a prairie fire."

His earnest teachings and successful exploration of the revolutionary path have become the compass in the hearts of many people, and he himself has naturally become a monument to the people of the whole country.
Chairman Mao
For the Chinese people, Chairman Mao is the first person to create the world, but the person who has always guarded them fell.

At 4 pm, the broadcaster recorded a three and a half hour press release. Because the speed of this manuscript cannot be too fast or too slow, we must find a suitable emotional buffer point to relieve the sorrow in everyone's heart.
Chairman Mao passed away. The people missed the farmers working in the fields, workers working in factories, teachers writing hard in the office, and students listening to classes in the classroom.

The heavy voice of the broadcaster was deeply impressed in their hearts. When everyone heard this news, everyone's psychological defense collapsed instantly. Some people covered their faces and cried bitterly, some people kept their faces silently, some people covered their faces and cried, and some people shouted "Long live Chairman Mao!"

3, People's Leader Chairman Mao
"I am not a blind superstitious person because I am a materialist, but sometimes I just blindly admire Chairman Mao. When there is something different about everyone, I naturally lean towards Chairman Mao’s side. Because in the important historical moments of the Party and at the critical moment of life and death, in most cases, Chairman Mao’s opinions have been confirmed by history, and only he is right. So in this way, my admiration for him was formed. " This is what Peng Zhen said.
At the same time, Premier Zhou also said: "You can object to what Chairman Mao said he wanted to do, but it is best not to easily object, because there have been times when I thought Chairman Mao was wrong, but after practice, his decision was correct. When I was convinced that Chairman Mao was wrong, practice proved that he was right."
Chairman Mao and Premier Zhou
The attitudes of these central leaders and cadres may be the attitude of the people of the whole country. When the people of the whole country are under the oppression of three mountains, Chairman Mao raised his arms and shouted, put forward advanced revolutionary theory, and led the vast number of working people step by step towards the journey of striving for themselves.
After Chairman Mao’s death, the great grief of the people across the country was the most normal reaction, because he knew that the person who led him forward was gone. At the same time, some people took the opportunity to accuse him.
But this statement was immediately rejected by Wang Zhen. He said this: "The reason why Chairman Mao’s decisions cannot be understood is because he stands high and sees far, and other people often cannot see through it. Chairman Mao read 50 years earlier than us. "
Wang Zhen
This is true. Whether it is dealing with domestic conflicts or engaging in foreign diplomacy, Chairman Mao has incisive discussions, and others often misunderstand him because they cannot understand or see clearly.
The Soviet Union was dominant back then, and China and Japan and China and the United States began to ease. Many people do not understand why Chairman Mao suddenly showed goodwill to the US imperialist empire. It was Chairman Mao who told them: "The Chinese people must stand up and live, and they cannot always rely on others. " Chairman Mao's words were about the Soviet Union.
Therefore, the relationship between China and the Soviet Union once dropped to freezing point, especially the Zhenbao Island incident . Sino-Soviet relations deteriorated to the extreme. After Chairman Mao's death, the Soviet newspapers only reported in a small part of the text, and even the words were very meaningful to put a deception.

this was because the Soviet government was in power at that time was completely The land denied Stalin , and Chairman Mao expressed his shock at this matter. He believed that Stalin had made contributions and had made achievements.
So when countries around the world sent condolences to the Chinese embassy one after another, the United Nations and various countries lowered the flag for Chairman Mao at the same time, the Soviet Union, the former big brother of China, turned a deaf ear and even treated each other coldly, which has to be said to be very heartbreaking.
"Our era has come to an end and will all become the past. " This is what Zhang Guotao said in Canada.

Back then, he disagreed with the Party Central Committee and led the troops to flee and defect. After the war ended, he moved to Canada for a while. But in the end, Chairman Mao still walked in front of him. When he mentioned this matter, he was already in a calm tone, as if he was telling that Chairman Mao's thoughts would disappear with his body, as if they would come to an end in this era.
But what disappointed him was that to this day, Chairman Mao's thoughts still exuded a shining glory, forever The sky above the east of the world guides the Chinese people's way forward.
At a symposium commemorating the 120th anniversary of Chairman Mao's birth, General Secretary Xi once commented on Chairman Mao and said: "He is a great Marxist, a great proletarian revolutionary, and a great man who leads the people to completely change their destiny and the face of the country."
Chairman Mao
Indeed, Chairman Mao's thoughts are still the guiding ideology for China's progress now. His glory always shelters the Chinese people from unity and strive forward bravely.
