A letter to parents advocating Wenpeng travel

Since entering the second half of 2014, with the publication of the book "Collection of Poems, Books and Prose" planned and edited by me, and with the continuous expansion of social circles, I have met literary friends, poets, calligraphers and painters. There are more and more teachers in the world. In their free time, everyone communicated through phone calls, QQ, blogs, and the Internet. With trust and understanding, they came to my residence at the foot of Black Iron Mountain from different places, communicated with me, and brought me calligraphy, painting, and calligraphy treasures. , books, newspapers and periodicals and other valuable spiritual wealth. During this period, under my leadership, everyone took a tour of Black Iron Mountain to view the scenery of Zibo; paid homage to the statue of Chairman Mao and received patriotic education; walked into Jinling Temple and felt the aura of Buddhism; stepped onto the top of Huashan Mountain to enjoy the beautiful autumn scenery... …In the short period of contact, exchange, communication and travel, everyone sought common ground while reserving differences, spoke freely, understood each other, and reached mutual understanding, further deepened feelings, enhanced friendship, and laid the foundation for future work. Below I will compile the fragments of literary friends, poets and teachers from the calligraphy and painting circles when they came to the mine for review and commemoration.

On the afternoon of August 13, 2014, Mr. Zou Dazhen, a 77-year-old Zibo art legend, communicated by phone in advance. Regardless of his age, he came from Zhangdian District with trust and understanding. I took a special taxi from Changcheng Village, Fengshui Town, to Jinling Iron Mine. I was greeted warmly.

In a warm and harmonious atmosphere, I published the book "Collection of Poems and Prose" which I planned and acted as editor. It was given to Mr. Zou (it contains Mr. Zou’s inscription). Accompanied by teacher Han Fuzhong, everyone had a cup of tea and communicated until about 4:20 in the afternoon. During this period, Mr. Zou left me four pieces of his recent calligraphy works, and talked about his personal experiences over the years, which was full of true feelings and touching... He started with brushwork, inkwork, and composition, and talked about his appreciation of the art of Chinese calligraphy. He specially introduced his own original Jin Sui Seal and Phoenix Seal. Many of his insights were novel and unique, and he was worthy of being called a "genius in the art world".

In the evening, Mr. Zou was accompanied by two calligraphers and painters, Han Fuzhong and Bian Chongsen, and had dinner at Pinxiang Garden in Zhongbu Town. After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Mr. Zou’s boldness remained unchanged.

When it came to calligraphy creation, he was sincere. , cursive, official script, seal script, and the Phoenix seal script, plum blossom seal script, and golden spike seal script that I created myself. They crisscrossed each other and inspired the characters, which left a deep impression on everyone.

When returning, Teacher Han Fuzhong, Gao Qian and others escorted Mr. Zou, who was over eighty years old, to Changcheng Village, Fengshui Town in a special car. Everyone shook hands and said goodbye. When I got home, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.

August 18. In the afternoon, Zibo calligrapher Mr. Ning Zhiyao and Mr. Wang Kezhong had contacted by phone in advance and drove to Jinling Iron Mine. I welcomed them warmly.

As a peasant calligrapher in Zibo City, Mr. Ning Zhiyao went through ups and downs and finally became a great artist. In May 2009, with only a high school education, he actually stepped onto the podium to give a special lecture on the theme of "Inheriting the Cultural Heritage of Calligraphy and Showing the Charm of Calligraphy Art" to the students of the Art Department of Zibo Vocational College.

During this period, after I learned about Ning Zhiyao’s self-taught and hard-working deeds, I conducted a special interview with him. I gave a comprehensive introduction to Mr. Ning Zhiyao’s calligraphy and painting art under the title of "Writing Life in Calligraphy and Painting Despite the Ups and Downs", and in "Shandong Province" News Network", "Space Tabloid" and other media published. Since then we have kept in touch frequently and developed a deep friendship. In June 2013, after learning that I was planning to publish the "Collection of Poems, Books and Prose", Mr. Ning Zhiyao not only wrote the preface, but also provided calligraphy works to express his congratulations, which moved me very much. In July 2014, after the "Collection of Poems, Books and Prose" was published, I made a special trip to Xincheng Town, Huantai County to send two books and periodicals to each of him and teacher Liu Qiyi as a souvenir. In August 2014, Teacher Ning called again and asked me to prepare a few more books for him for the purpose of collecting and giving them to relatives and friends. I happily agreed.

After we met each other, we had a cup of tea, accompanied by Teacher Wang Kezhong, and we all discussed our work this year, as well as our respective gains and experiences. When I learned that Mr. Ning has his own calligraphy and painting studio in Zibo Ceramic Science and Technology City, and often holds classes to teach calligraphy culture, I congratulated him on his achievements. Due to time and venue constraints, Teacher Ning was preparing to demonstrate his calligraphy art on-site with his brushes and seals, so he had to postpone the event.

In just two hours, we had a great time together and reached mutual understanding through communication. It was already around 5 pm when Teacher Ning returned to Zhangdian.

On the morning of August 30, 2014, People's Daily Online Zibo. Editor Zhang Yueguang and Teacher Liu (female) made a special trip to Jinling Iron Mine on Saturday's rest day.

Since it was the first time for Teacher Zhang to come to my house, he was not familiar with the lines. While driving, he called me repeatedly to confirm the route and the building number where I lived. It was a long journey with many twists and turns. After meeting, I held Teacher Zhang's big hand tightly and exchanged greetings with each other, and I felt even more the sincerity and honesty of Zibo people. At my home, Teacher Zhang visited my living room, study room and courtyard settings. Looking at the lush and blooming vegetables and flowers such as loofahs, spider plants, peppers, etc. in the courtyard, Teacher Zhang and Teacher Liu were filled with envy and praised the feeling of a paradise. After sitting down in the living room, everyone sipped the fragrant tea. Teacher Zhang unfolded three calligraphy works including "She De" and "Jing Qi Shen" written by him personally. The calligraphy was powerful, majestic, and quite the style of a calligrapher. . At this time, mine calligrapher Han Fuzhong also knocked on the door, and I quickly opened the door to welcome him. Everyone introduced and communicated with each other, and learned that Teacher Zhang Yueguang is 62 years old. After retirement, he was re-employed by his employer and was responsible for the editing work of the Internet and newspapers. It can be said that the remaining brilliance is admirable. After a short chat, I accompanied Teacher Zhang and Teacher Liu to Dazhai Village, Zhongbu Town, Zhangdian District. We first paid homage to the statue of Chairman Mao and admired Chairman Mao’s badges, newspapers, magazines and other related items collected by the Shandong Red Base. Looking at the old photos from the Cultural Revolution period, Teacher Zhang Yueguang was filled with emotions. He told us about his participation in the Red Soldiers during those passionate years. The scenes were as vivid as yesterday. Head...

Under my guidance, Teacher Zhang and Teacher Liu walked up the steps with solid steps. First, they came to the Black Iron Mountain Anti-Japanese Armed Uprising Monument to pay homage to the uprising inscription. Looking at the monument made of purple-red granite, in the shape of two Type 38 rifles standing side by side, with the top connection being a bayonet-shaped monument with a white blade, I have a lot of thoughts and feelings... I pay tribute to the martyrs who fought for the founding of New China. I admire the spirit of heroic struggle, hard work and sacrifice.

After taking a short break, we walked all the way south from the monument section. While enjoying the scenery of Iron Mountain in midsummer, I introduced to you the history of the anti-Japanese armed uprising in Black Iron Mountain: The towering Black Iron Mountain is located in The governor of Shandong Province (Shan) Huantai) Yi (Du) Lin (Zi) is in the border area of ??the four counties. During the Great Revolution, under the leadership of the Communist Party, a vigorous peasant movement broke out in this area. The masses had a good foundation and the Kuomintang's rule was relatively weak, making it easy to organize and mobilize the masses. The Heitieshan Uprising was organized based on Changshan Middle School. Beginning in September 1937, the Communist Party of China Yao Zhongming, Liao Rongbiao, Zhao Mingxin and the famous patriot Ma Yaonan, the principal of Changshan Middle School, carried out preparations and preparatory work for the uprising based on Changshan Middle School. In December 1937, the situation took a turn for the worse. The Japanese army crossed the Yellow River south in two routes from the east of Qihe and Jiyang. Han Fuju, Chairman of the Kuomintang Shandong Provincial Government and Commander-in-Chief of the Third Army, led an army of 100,000 to flee without a fight. On the morning of the 24th, Japanese aircraft bombed Changshan County. The Kuomintang officials and troops in Changshan County abandoned the city and fled. The party group of Changshan Middle School held an emergency meeting and immediately decided to launch an armed uprising in Heitaishan and launch the anti-Japanese struggle. That night, Yao Zhongming and Liao Rongbiao led more than 60 teachers and students from Changshan Middle School and local youths to Taipingzhuang at the foot of Black Iron Mountain. They met with the "Democracy First" members and anti-Japanese masses led by Zhao Mingxin and Zhou Cwen who had arrived earlier to prepare for the uprising. Changshan District 3 and District 8 of Mayaonan District organized personnel to prepare food, guns and ammunition. On the 26th, more than 100 teachers and students of Changshan Middle School, training class students, some "Democracy" members, and young farmers gathered in Taipingzhuang to hold an anti-Japanese armed uprising and announced the establishment of the "Fifth Army of the Shandong People's Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army". Liao Rongbiao was appointed as The commander, Yao Zhongming was appointed political commissar, and Zhao Mingxin was appointed director of the political department. A few days later, Ma Yaonan dared to go to Black Iron Mountain to join the uprising troops. In order to broadly unite the anti-Japanese forces, it was decided to establish a temporary action committee, with Ma Yaonan as the director, Yao Zhongming as the deputy director, Liao Rongbiao and Zhao Mingxin as members, and all actions would be decided by the committee. The Heitieshan Uprising planned and organized by Yao Zhongming, Liao Rongbiao, Zhao Mingxin and Ma Yaonan fired the first shot of armed resistance to Japanese imperialist aggression on the Qinghe Plain and had a great impact on the local area. Various anti-Japanese organizations rushed to Heitieshan to join the uprising troops, and the Changshan County Brigade of the Kuomintang also joined the uprising troops. The uprising troops grew rapidly. They raided Changshan City at night, ambushed Japanese motorboats, and were active in the north and south of Jiaoji Road, undermining the arrogance of the Japanese invaders. In June 1938, the uprising troops were organized into the Third Detachment of the Shandong People's Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Detachment of the Eighth Route Army (later renamed the Third Detachment of the Shandong Column of the Eighth Route Army)... Listening to my story, Teacher Liu nodded frequently and expressed his admiration for the heroic and majestic Black Iron Mountain. We have a more comprehensive understanding of the mountains and the magnificent mountains.

While talking and laughing, in a short while, we climbed to the top of the 254.6-meter-high Heitie Mountain. Looking far into the distance, the scenery of Zibo was right before our eyes. We were all excited beyond words. I took photos of Zhang Yueguang and Teacher Liu, and everyone commented: The trip to Tieshan was well worth it. Lunch was eaten in Pinxiang Garden, accompanied by Teacher Han personally. The atmosphere was harmonious and the date of the next gathering was discussed. When I left, I presented each teacher with the books "Collection of Poetry and Prose" and "The Road to Healthy Mountaineering at Sixty Years Old", which I served as the editor and planned and published, as well as the calligraphy works of Teacher Han Fuzhong. Everyone shook hands and said goodbye. See you next time.

On the morning of September 2, 2014, Teacher Zhai Shunxu from Zhangdian, Zibo (born on October 5, 1940 in Boshan, Zibo, Shandong, teaching for 41 years) made a special trip to Jinling Iron Mine, Shandong, to bring me He published his new book "Coming from the Fire of War - No Complaints and No Regrets" and signed it personally: Comrade Gao Qian please give me the correct answer and Zhai Shunxu's phone number is 130116289262861810 on September 2, 2014. I gave back the book "Collection of Poems, Books and Prose" and a piece of calligraphy work that I was responsible for editing and planning to publish. It was drizzling that day, and in a harmonious atmosphere, Teacher Zhai introduced his experience, hobbies, family situation and children's employment status. His words revealed his contentment and gratitude for life. In my room, everyone had a cup of tea and communicated with each other. The atmosphere was harmonious and harmonious. Unconsciously, two hours passed quickly. I originally wanted to keep Teacher Zhai Shunxu for lunch, but Teacher Zhai had to say goodbye in a hurry because of something at home. When leaving, I made a special trip to take Teacher Zhai to the car and watched Teacher Zhai go away...

On the morning of September 7, 2014, Shi Yuangong, executive deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Huantai County Party Committee, Zibo City, and Zhang Lianzhong, a poet from Zibo City , came to my home. In addition to excitement and emotion, I recalled the scene when Minister Shi Yuangong served as our teacher in junior high school and taught us chemistry. He had a heart of philanthropy, was approachable and good at teaching us, and allowed us to find the joy of learning and learn from it. Teach us many principles of life. Since then, through his own hard work, Teacher Shi Yuangong has worked hard from being a teacher to being the chairman of the Huantai County Federation of Literary and Art Circles and the executive deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Huantai County Party Committee. I sigh.

I was flattered by the arrival of the teacher, and naturally received him warmly. In addition to the exchange, I drove my private car to Huashan, Zibo High-tech Zone, accompanied by teachers Shi Yuangong and Zhang Linzhong, to experience the broadness of Taoism.

Standing at the top of Huashan Mountain, we looked down into the distance, feeling refreshed and full of emotions... We drove to the foot of Heitieshan Mountain. I accompanied teacher Shi Yuangong to visit the "Heitieshan Anti-Japanese Armed Uprising Memorial Hall" and observed on the spot the uprising at that time. Regarding relevant historical materials, in the memorial hall, Teacher Shi nodded frequently while walking and looking. We bowed in front of the statue of Chairman Mao in Dazhai Village to express our admiration and admiration for the leader and great man.

We had dinner at Xinshengyuan at noon (accompanied by teachers Gao Qian, Han Fuzhong, and Yu Youcun). The indoor environment was clean, the atmosphere was harmonious, and everyone drank very casually. Everyone had exchanges around topics such as "culture, calligraphy, painting, and poetry." Minister Shi recalled his youthful years with excitement and emotion. Teachers Han Fuzhong and Yu Youcun also talked about their feelings and experiences in calligraphy, painting and literary creation. Zibo poet Zhang Lianzhong also gave a speech at the scene. Everyone believes that culture and art can not only promote the development and progress of society, but also be beneficial to one's own physical and mental health. Therefore, literary and artistic creation must adhere to the three closenesses, promote the main melody, convey positive energy, eulogize the truth, goodness and beauty, and strive to create more excellent works worthy of the trust of the times.

In the afternoon, everyone shook hands and said goodbye one by one. I gave Minister Shi the loofahs planted in the courtyard and put them in the car. Minister Shi readily accepted the offer when he saw it was green food and set a date for the next gathering. As the vehicle drove slowly away, I waved and watched Minister Shi's vehicle until it was out of sight.

On the morning of September 16, 2014, calligraphers Liu Qiyi, Zhang Gang, Mou Lianjun, and Zhang Guodong came to my home from Huantai New Town.

As old friends for many years, I have close contacts with all the teachers and have formed deep friendships with each other. It is with the trust and understanding of our friends that the teachers have spared their time in their busy schedules. Time comes to my home. Of course I dare not neglect you and give you a warm welcome. After a short exchange, I served as the tour guide and together with everyone, we came to Gaoyang, South Linzi, Zibo City. We visited Jinling Temple, felt the aura of Buddhism, and bought some books from the temple. It was the autumn harvest season in rural areas, and the road was occupied by grain fields and the vehicles were moving slowly. The trip that was originally planned to take one morning had to be changed to one day.

We had lunch at Zhongbu Xinshengyuan (accompanied by teachers Gao Qian and Han Fuzhong). Although it was a simple meal, everyone ate very deliciously. During this period, the teachers talked freely about the past and their understanding of calligraphy and painting, and reached a mutual understanding: in the future, we should communicate with each other, exchange information, and improve together in terms of culture, so as to prosper local culture and art and realize Transcendence of personal values.

In the afternoon, we drove to Dazhai Village at the foot of Heitie Mountain and paid homage to the statue of Chairman Mao with reverence; when we came to Taiping Village, we climbed Heitie Mountain and paid homage to Heitie Mountain’s anti-Japanese statue. The Armed Uprising Monument and the Heitieshan Martyrs Cemetery were visited. In a harmonious atmosphere, everyone walked and visited the artificial lake built in Taiping Village. *** all felt the tremendous changes in Zibo High-tech Zone and said that this trip was very useful. Meaning...

Yes, it is a joy to have friends come from far away.

By opening my heart and welcoming literary friends and poets from all over the world to come to my home for exchanges, I feel that my life is enriched; by traveling, I not only broaden my horizons, exercise my body, and improve my own quality, it is indeed a lot of happiness. , I have benefited a lot, which I will never forget...
