Chapter 125: Taking chestnuts from the fire

As the Spring Festival approaches, both in cities and rural areas, ordinary people are busy preparing for the New Year. Walking on the streets, they have already felt the lively atmosphere of the festival.

Compared with ordinary people, many people are trapped in a whirlpool. The atmosphere of the New Year has not diluted the fierce ideological confrontation between the upper politicians. Newspapers, magazines, radios and other media, and various speeches are coming and going, verbal and verbal, filled with the smell of gunpowder, and the debate is almost fierce.

The collapse of the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe changed drastically. A huge socialist family collapsed without fighting in an instant, and they all fell down one after another. The grim facts are thought-provoking: Where will the world go in the future? What will be the fate of the country in the future? What to do in the future?

Faced with these global historical problems, all kinds of people appeared one after another and gave their own answers. Western hostile forces promoted the "great defeat of communism", and some people in China who insisted on bourgeois liberalization also advocated abandoning the four basic principles and following the path of "Westernization".

As a result, there has been a vague understanding of reform and opening up policies among the Party and among some cadres and the masses, and even a debate about "capitalization" and "society". These actually involve whether to adhere to the basic line of the Party's "one center, two basic points" with economic development as the center, and what path to take in the future.

In the blink of an eye, it entered January 1992. The ideological confrontation between all parties continued to heat up and became increasingly fierce.

Since talking to Wan Chunlai, Du Yuanzhou has changed his original idea of ​​being a bystander. Only efforts can reward you. This truth is very simple. He doesn't want to give up any opportunity in vain. So he finally made a decision.

"Hello, Secretary Zhao? I'm Du Yuanzhou."

"Does County Magistrate Wan have time? I have an article about how to view the Soviet Russia issue. I would like to ask him to review it and check it out."

After thinking about it, Du Yuanzhou did not call Wan Chunlai directly, but called his secretary.

"Director Du, wait a moment, I'll ask the leader?" After receiving a call from Du Yuanzhou, Zhao Mingqi was very polite, knowing that the boss appreciated this person very much. As a secretary, the leader's consciousness is his own consciousness.

After a while, Zhao Mingqi took the initiative to call and said that County Magistrate Wan was still in Yanjing and could rush back to Changbai tonight. Du Yuanzhou could hand over the article to him and he would hand it over.

That night, Du Yuanzhou turned down the social engagement. He knew that if Wan Chunlai agreed with the article, he would definitely reply on his own initiative.

Sure enough, at around 9 o'clock in the evening, Wan Chunlai's phone number came over. On the phone, Wan Chunlai expressed his agreement with Du Yuanzhou's point of view and agreed to publish it in the name of the two of them.

Seeing that the leader agreed so smoothly, Du Yuanzhou was very happy. What he didn't know was that there were other reasons behind Wan Chunlai's agreement. After the last conversation between the two, Wan Chunlai flew back to Yanjing and talked about Du Yuanzhou's analysis and judgment about his grandfather, the real Dinghai Shenjian of the Wan family, and Comrade Wan Jiangshan, who is currently a member of the Standing Committee of the Central Advisory Committee.

As an older generation of revolutionaries who have been through the war years, the country has experienced countless guns, bullets, and various storms. Even the ten-year catastrophe that caused countless comrades to fall unjustly, he still survived strongly and still stands tall. It can be seen that in addition to the concentration that ordinary people cannot reach, he naturally has a set of political wisdom that ordinary people do not possess.

Faced with the disintegration of the Soviet Union and the drastic changes in Eastern Europe, he had already made a clear judgment in his mind at the beginning of the debate. However, he had not made any statement for a long time. This was definitely a kind of political wisdom.

Wan Jiangshan didn't want the Wan family to stand at the forefront of the storm from the beginning and became the target of attacks by everyone. The timing of the attack should be paid attention to. As for the arguments between the younger generations, he did not participate or interfere too much, and by the way, he tested the younger generation's vision and political ability.

As a result, he was disappointed. In addition to Wan Chunlai, he had some insights. His second son Wangu and his eldest grandson Wan Guolai chose the conservatives who temporarily gained the upper hand. When Wan Chunlai received the support of the old man, his confidence increased greatly.

Du Yuanzhou gave him two articles, one titled "My Views on the Failure of Soviet Reforms" and the other titled "Reform and Opening Up is the Strongest Power of Development". The former mainly talks about "improving vigilance", and makes a reasonable and well-founded comparison of the basic situation between the Soviet Union and Russia and the country, and finds the right direction for reform and opening up; the latter mainly talks about extensive analysis of the international situation and domestic actual situation, affirming that reform and opening up is the inevitable way out and the main line of national rejuvenation. We must not only adhere to reform and opening up, but also expand our pace.

"Xiao Du, these two articles are very well analyzed and insightful. Are you so confident that the country will follow the reform and opening up in the future? If you submit your articles to the Liberation Communiqué, aren't you afraid of bringing risks to yourself?"

On the other side of the phone, Wan Chunlai made a phone call and carefully looked through the two articles and asked in a tentative tone.

"There will be risks, but I believe they will pass soon. Haha, isn't I still have a banner like your leader to protect me? As for whether to continue to adhere to reform and opening up, I think the one above will take action soon and everything will be announced soon."

Du Yuanzhou's answer was quite clever, and some of them were ambiguous. But Wan Chunlai was very satisfied, because many of Du Yuanzhou's views coincided with the ideas of Mr. Wan Jiangshan, but some aspects were slightly superficial or general.

************************************

Time flies, and things have passed two or three days. Every day, I read the "Liberation Bulletin" and did not see two articles signed by the two. Du Yuanzhou couldn't help but feel anxious, and even wanted to call Wan Chunlai for a while to ask if the manuscript had been handed over.

Just as he picked up the phone and put it down gently, Du Yuanzhou couldn't help but shake his head, mocking him for not having enough concentration. He had no intention of participating in the whirlpool of ideological confrontation. Later, Wan Chunlai, the big Buddha, stood in front, and he decided to take the chestnut from the fire and gain some political capital. The matter did not come to an end for a while, and he became impatient.

Du Yuanzhou calmed down his mind, spread a piece of rice paper on the table, patiently polished the ink, then picked up the brush, pondered for a moment, and gently used his wrist strength. The seven big words "Every time you encounter major events, you will be calm" came to your eyes. The whole text is vigorous and powerful, simple and generous, with a unique flavor.

At this time, the pager placed beside the table rang. He picked it up and saw that it was a message sent by Lin Jiayi. Du Yuanzhou did not dare to delay and immediately called the phone.

"Not good, Yuanzhou! My dad..." As soon as the phone was connected, Lin Jiayi shouted anxiously there.
