Title: "The Adventure of a Fledgling College Graduate Changing His Fate and Chairman Mao's Instructions"
Yan Changgui, a child from a poor peasant family, was admitted to the Chinese People's University by virtue of hard work and talent. After graduating, he unexpectedly wrote an article that was appreciated by Chairman Mao, "Never Walk, Never Wrestle", which not only changed Yan Changgui's fate, but also triggered a series of changes.
In July 1966, Yan Changgui entered the briefing group of the Central Cultural Revolution Group of the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse. This opportunity was unimaginable for young cadres, and what surprised Yan Changgui even more was that he was selected as Jiang Qing's full-time secretary and took on the heavy responsibility of being the head of the letter handling team.
Yan Changgui won Jiang Qing's recognition with his talent and good behavior, and he completed various tasks with all his heart. However, when he was ready to work hard with enthusiasm and determination, a mistake at work was misunderstood by Jiang Qing as "sitting on the detective", which led to his imprisonment in Qincheng Prison for seven years.
In 1975, Yan Changgui was finally released and sent to a farm in Dongting Lake, Hunan Province, for labor reform. It was not until 1979 that Yan Changgui was rehabilitated and returned to Beijing to work for Red Flag Magazine. In his later years, he devoted himself to theoretical and research work, and wrote his memoirs.
In June 2021, Yan Changgui died of illness at the age of 84. He has experienced ups and downs in his life, but he has always adhered to his beliefs and interpreted the courage and determination to change his fate with his actions.
Yan Changgui's story tells us that the ups and downs of life are not terrible, and the important thing is to always stick to your beliefs and goals. As Chairman Mao said in his article: "If you make a mistake, as long as you seriously correct it, it will be fine." "No matter what kind of difficulties and setbacks we encounter, as long as we have the courage to face and correct, we can reverse our fate and realize the value of our life.
Yan Changgui's experience also makes us deeply realize that the times are constantly changing, and everyone's fate will also change with it. We must not rely too much on past achievements, but must continue to adapt to the needs of the times and continue to strive for progress and innovation. Only in this way can we continue to move forward in the torrent of the times and continue to write our own stories.
Yan Changgui, an ordinary person thrown by fate, met through hard work and opportunities, experienced ups and downs, and finally completed his own fantasy life. His story makes us believe that everyone has the opportunity to create their own wonder.
Whether it is a fledgling college graduate or a child from a poor family, as long as we work hard, persevere, and believe in our own potential and possibility, we can change our destiny and realize the value and meaning of life. Let us take Yan Changgui as an example, bravely face the challenges of life, chase our own dreams, and write our own wonderful chapters.
