Original text

Mao Zedong's "Bu Suanzi·Yong Mei"

Read Lu You's poem "Yong Mei" and use it contrary to its meaning.

Wind and rain send spring home, and flying snow welcomes spring. There are already hundreds of feet of ice on the cliff, but there are still beautiful flowers and branches.

Qiao doesn’t fight for spring, she only repays it. When the mountain flowers were in full bloom, she smiled among the bushes.

Translation

After reading Lu You's "Bu Suanzi·Yong Mei", I wrote this poem using its original meaning.

Wind and rain send spring away, and flying snow welcomes spring again. It is the season when hundreds of feet of icicles form on the cliff, but there are still beautiful flowers blooming.

Pretty but not taking away the beauty of spring, just reporting the news of spring. When the mountains and fields are filled with flowers, the plum blossoms are smiling among the flowers.

Notes

Ice: describes extreme cold.

Laughing in the bush: When the flowers bloom, I feel relieved and happy.

Yu: Still, still.

Qiao: handsome, beautiful appearance; (This can express not only the beauty of plum blossoms, but also the beautiful sentiments of revolutionaries who are strong and unyielding in the face of difficulties.)

Brilliant: color Sharp and beautiful. (The article refers to the way the flowers are in full bloom)

Creative background

In June 1960, a meeting of representatives of the Communist Party and the Workers’ Party was held in Bucharest, the capital of Romania, and Soviet Union There was a heated argument between the delegation and the Chinese delegation. After the meeting, the Soviet Union withdrew all experts in China, tore up hundreds of agreements and contracts, and stopped supplying important equipment. At that time, Western countries, led by the United States, had been imposing an economic blockade on China. The Soviet Union's severe measures actually cut off China's normal channels for obtaining advanced technology and equipment from abroad. At the same time, China is in a three-year difficult period and is experiencing unprecedented severe tests. In the face of severe difficulties, Mao Zedong always maintained the fearless spirit of the Chinese nation and withstood the pressure of great power chauvinism. The Chinese people's spirit of independence and self-reliance has won widespread praise.

Appreciation

This poem about things is a model of writing using reverse thinking. The "contrary to its meaning" mentioned in the preface of the poem is an excellent way for readers to enter the artistic realm of this plum poem. Lu You advocated the Northern Expedition at that time, but the emperor did not trust him, and the surrender faction in the court crowded out and attacked him. It was difficult for him to fulfill his ambition, and he was sad and desolate, so he wrote "Bu Suanzi·Yong Mei". Lu You used Mei's words to describe himself, saying that he would persist in his patriotic sentiments and would not give in to evil forces until death. However, the "plum" in Lu You's poem is too lonely, and it is left to the jealousy of the flowers. There is no sunshine, but the wind and rain pour it. Although it finally "falls into mud and grinds into dust", it always maintains its inherent fragrance, and The "plum" in Mao Zedong's poem is completely opposite. The "Plum Blossom" written by Lu You is the image of a lonely patriot, while the "Plum Blossom" written by Mao Zedong is a great communist. She is a person and represents the advanced proletarian group. The "plum blossoms" written by Lu You grow "beside the broken bridge outside the post office" and support themselves in the wind and rain, while the "plum blossoms" written by Mao Zedong are accompanied by flying snow, growing proud of the frost and snow when "the cliff is hundreds of feet of ice". The "plum blossoms" written by Lu You bloom lonely and ownerless, feeling sad alone in the dusk, dejected and sad, while the "plum blossoms" written by Mao Zedong bloom when spring is coming, proud and optimistic. The "plum blossoms" written by Lu You "have no intention of striving for spring", they are indifferent to the world and wisely protect themselves, while the "plum blossoms" written by Mao Zedong "only repay the coming of spring", want to welcome spring to the world and make selfless contributions. The "plum blossoms" written by Lu You are solitary and self-admiring, helpless, while the "plum blossoms" written by Mao Zedong laugh among the blooming mountain flowers and will always be with the flowers. The final ending of the "plum blossoms" written by Lu You is to "fall into mud and grind into dust" and be forgotten by people, while the "plum blossoms" written by Mao Zedong usher in the spring when hundreds of flowers bloom, and gain eternal life in the spring.
