For the Dazhai, those who lived through the seventies of last century people, we can say Wurenbuxiao. In 1964, the great leader issued a "Emulating Da-Zhai in agriculture," the call, from the whole world knows the name of the Dazhai. First time in 30 years, came to Dazhai, board Hutoushan overlooking the wolf's den palm, villa-style homes in those eyes, appearing in many subtle inner feelings.
Dazhai in Xiyang County, Shanxi Province, is the Taihang Mountains west of the Loess Plateau edge of a village, because the Song army Dazhai named in this bar.
In fact, Dazhai is not large, nor particularly, when the 60's is nothing but barren hills and the 58 other people's village. Mountain village in a palm of the valley called the wolf's den where no rain is dry, with rain disaster, the villagers living bitter. The mid-fifties, a man named Chen Yonggui person to lead the village self-reliance, hard work, the whole mountain water resources, dedicated to agricultural production. In 1963 a flood, the village, among the more than 220 houses inundated more than 190 rooms, more than 70 families lost their homes, but also washed away by Yamada. The face of Zhefan scene, Chen Yonggui nothing and lead the villagers to build a house, terracing. Surprisingly, again the following year a flood washed away again terraces. Dazhai people do not seem convinced improved terraced structure, enhanced anti-flood capacity of the third year of the flood damage to Dazhai people no longer terraces. They continue to water irrigation, remediation Yamada, grain production reached a higher level. Dazhai is one such person, with self-reliant, hard work, spirit of solidarity, create a national spirit of the times.
Not only that, Dazhai, or Mao Zedong Thought agriculture practitioners. In the struggle with nature, Mao Zedong saw the development of agriculture and power on, and from the leadership of Chen Yonggui in labor production, saw the corruption of hope. Dazhai became a banner later, Chen Yonggui and his people continue to faithfully practice the Mao Zedong Thought, and actively organize cooperatives, the development of collective economy, and irrigation and water conservancy construction, agricultural mechanization. The people of that era, there is a broad world of hearts, want to contribute to human development. Chen Yonggui, who later became the Deputy Prime Minister to take credits at once said, "standing Hutoushan, look up the Tiananmen Square, open to the world."
Dazhai set foot on the land, there is a feeling hard to explain. Dazhai Napian premises remain green, while others live, but that is more like a relic of the premises. Through the large Zhai, along the village paths up the mountain, head of the flash of the scene, seems to piece together memories. Natiao Dazhai the spirit of the shaman who rocks the road has been paved with flat asphalt surface, you can open the bus halfway to the mountain. Eyes of the Dazhai, is no longer a neat terraces Hutoushan old bare hillside, has been covered by dense trees, 150 kinds of dense trees, come the "Forest Park" in the world.
No matter how they change, Dazhai, after all, a mountain village, but also places a very strong local flavor. Here, in no change because the Dazhai was renowned on the traditional simplicity, not the slightest idea of the foreign flavor. Although the Dazhai people live on the villa, but the houses, the pastoral, the discourse is still the most common style of the Township.
6 km-long Wan Shan hidden in among the thick trees. Wayfinding-on, recalling four, everywhere can feel there was glory. Mid-level side of the road a hexagonal tablets pavilions, set with a stone inscription, that is, Premier Zhou monument, recording the three boarded the Zhou Hutoushan scenarios. Is said to now lush mountains, that is, according to Chou En-lai's instructions green. Here was also left off Ye Jianying, Deng Xiaoping, Li Xiannian and so many people's footprints. Mr. Guo Moruo's ashes are scattered in Hutoushan, the Peak has his monument. There had been working at the central office for eight years and the Deputy Prime Minister Chen Yonggui, it buried in the Hutoushan on to his unique life experiences, and demonstrates the former style. From 1964 to 1978, where total of 134 countries and regions of the 9.6 million people to visit, and now, still receives 200,000 visitors a year.
Also clearly remember that 30 years ago, his father Zengjinglaiguo here, home, introduced the Dazhai people Zhantiandoude deeds, let me Dazhai also longing. After the reform and opening up, there seems to be forgotten, and very few people mention, and Dazhai, that is also indifferent to the idea of searching. Now come to Dazhai, suddenly awakened early vision, everything is back to the past, I feel warm.
Through the efforts of Dazhai, the original "seven groove 8 Liang yimianpo" reform of the terraces have been absent, while the legendary's "Dazhai fields" have become the majority of forest, to appearance name of "Hutoushan" and the result of wolves haunt has been called "wolf's den palm" of the place, has become apparent spirit of the carrier. Dazhai person who is no longer the hard work of loess, commercial and industrial development beginning to take shape, and only Dazhai spirit remains rooted in the here, and this spirit had a full fifteen years, encouraging Chinese people's unremitting efforts.
Thanks for the Memories Dazhai change, Remembrance Dazhai spirit, memorable time in China, can not but for that time infected feat. We do not have to judge from the present point of view Dazhai, like how many years can not be divorced from the present situation of a note as today. But one thing, no matter what age, and under what conditions, community needs a distinct spirit of the times. Dazhai is a representative.
Perhaps 30 years later, maybe not take so long, when our descendants Dazhai then when they do not understand why there was that kind of passion here, right Zhantiandoude also hard to understand in the eyes, but is an extremely common cottage. This is the age difference. How could they understand that this view is that once hidden under the impact of the enthusiasm of the whole of China, today in retrospect, was still able to feel that fiery passion.
