html In that year, we responded to Chairman Mao’s call that “it is necessary for educated youth to go to the countryside to receive re-education from poor and lower-middle peasants.” Led by school teachers, we bid farewell to the golden student days and went to the countryside to join the team. From then on, we lived a good life. A life with the earth in front of you and the sky in your back.
The special term "educated youth" may be just a vague history for today's young people, but for those who have experienced it personally, it represents an unforgettable memory. No matter how you evaluate the massive and far-reaching Great Migration Movement of educated youth in the future, it is an indisputable fact that tens of millions of educated youth across the country devoted themselves to this movement with their ideals and passion.
Educated youth are a generation that grew up with the Republic and a milestone in an era that tens of millions of people cast with their youth and blood. Although educated youth has become a historical concept, the story of educated youth will always be evocative and exciting. Educated youth will always be the symbol of the times for that generation!
Educated youth writer Jiang Wei said: "Only our youth, the youth of the Chinese educated youth generation, is unique, unique and unprecedented in the entire history of human evolution and civilization.
Yu Qiuyu said: "In the absence of war and famine, , the third generation can be said to be one of the groups that have suffered the most hardships and hardships among the educated young people in the 20th century. "
Educated youth are romantic. Many times, fate gives us dark encounters, but it does not deprive us of the right to pursue light; fate gives us rough experiences, but it does not deprive us of a happy state of mind. Educated youths all experience After the Phoenix Nirvana, the experience of rebirth is an indelible scar, but when the Phoenix truly reaches Nirvana, the falling feathers are also beautiful. Although many things that feel happy now were not happy at the time, they have been washed away by the years. What was left behind was happiness and good aftertaste, but now when we talk about it calmly, it turns into reverence in the hearts of young people, and what is revealed in the eyes is yearning. With a look on his face, he even said with envy: You are so romantic...
Educated youth are passionate. From the moment the train started, we changed from students to "educated youth" and from classmates to "wild friends". ", became brothers and sisters who share weal and woe in the big family of "educated youth". In the youthful years, we formed a bond, formed a friendship, developed feelings, and formed a knot. The friendship warmed our boring life. Life. The experience of sharing joys and sorrows has become a strong emotional bond. The friendship in the world is not as pure, as deep, and as selfless as that of educated youth. Nowadays, no matter where you are, as long as you say that you were an educated youth, you don’t need to say anything. Naturally, there is a kind of understanding, a tacit understanding, and a sense of affinity. This kind of friendship among educated youth is so valuable in today's society where interpersonal relationships are indifferent and materialistic.
Educated youth are strong. The educated youth who came through the wasted years have experienced hardships and accumulated strength. Our generation is unfortunate, most people are unknown, and only a few people can become elites: our generation. People - when it's time to grow up, we encounter natural disasters; when it's time to get an education, we should go to the mountains and countryside; when it's time to fall in love, we ask for late marriage and late childbearing; when it's time to start a family, the national policy is to only have one child; when it's time to be at work When I was in Chicheng, I was required to have academic diplomas, but I was faced with various challenges such as downsizing and layoffs in the same year... We were born at the wrong time! But the hard and tortuous experiences taught us tolerance, cherishment, gratitude, strength, confidence, and dreams. Give your strength, forge ahead in hardships, and move forward in setbacks. We have the spirit of dedication and perseverance from the 19th CPC National Congress to share the country's worries, and they have supported us to this day.With educated youth at the bottom of the bowl of bitter wine, the attitude towards life will always be optimistic and the pursuit of life will always be proactive. Our songs are always so high-pitched and long-lasting, rich and affectionate; after going through wind and rain, we will see a rainbow. The poems written by educated youth are always so soul-stirring and tragic.
Educated youth are hardworking and enterprising. Educated youth are a special group created in a special era. They are witnesses, supporters and builders of reform and opening up. Our destiny is glued to the destiny of the Republic. Our experiences, our pain, and our reflections are the nourishment for the next generation and the unique life value of this generation. The performance of the educated youth back then in all walks of life shows that we who have experienced the hardships of life have the courage and strength to conquer difficulties and challenge pressure that other urbanites cannot match. Although the educated youth made great sacrifices for that era, the experience of the educated youth also created the unique Beidahuang character of our generation, which is the characteristics of the times - courage to move forward, not afraid of difficulties, optimism and open-mindedness, and the courage to fight. An old educated youth who went to the United States said: "It has been imperceptible in my body, with the irresistible passion of Beidahuang." "I cannot agree to describe the naive and innocent attitude of the educated youth who went to Beidahuang back then for the Communist Party." The spirit of dedication to the communist ideal has been completely wiped out... I am able to study abroad because of my father. More people do not have this condition, but as long as these people are given the opportunity, they will definitely do what they did in Beidahuang. As shiny as a sack! "
Having the experience of being an educated youth is a huge spiritual wealth for both the country and the individual. Because only the educated youth are the most qualified to say: Suffering is our wealth in life! Xiao Fuxing said: "History can bear witness that the spirit of Beidahuang has become more profound due to the integration of educated youth culture. In this land, the blood of educated youth, the love of educated youth and the people living here are integrated and inseparable. . Thirty years of vicissitudes gradually fade away in laughter. They are Beidahuang people, and they have made contributions to the construction and prosperity of Beidahuang. They have enriched the unforgettable spiritual connotation of the special title of Beidahuang people. Beidahuang, Beidahuang is even more proud of having educated youth. "Although most of us have left this land, and although our current life situations are different, those passionate years are still buried deep in our hearts. But it has a deeper connotation because of the common time, space and content. It was fate that allowed us to weave together a period of epic and touching youth. Beidahuang has been cast in our hearts forever. Because it is our second home.
has lasted for decades, in the blink of an eye. The wind and rain, sorrow and strength, tears and blood, thoughts and emotions of that year will all be cross-century topics that a generation of educated youth will talk about endlessly. Let others see that what Beidahuang has given us is not just disappointment and sadness. After all, it has given us the most unforgettable and precious thing in life, that is, after our youth and ideals have suffered a devastating blow, a kind of Quenched and tempered! That is Phoenix Nirvana!
