More than 70 years ago, Chairman Mao stood on the top of the Tiananmen Gate Tower and solemnly announced the founding of New China. [Rose]
I remember that at that time, a photographer in the Soviet Union took a color video specifically for the founding ceremony of New China, but with the deterioration of Sino-Soviet relations, this video did not reach us in the last century, until the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China in 2019, Russia gave this well-preserved video tape to the mainland as a gift for the 70th anniversary.
From it we can see many classic pictures, those characters that exist in textbooks appear vividly in front of us, and when we see these colorful pictures, we seem to have traveled through time and space to this period of burning passion.
This picture is the celebration and art performance of people at the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China at that time, it can be seen that the field is full of bright five-star red flags, and people are orderly in the square, a harmonious scene.
At the bottom were crowded with enthusiastic people, who were full of enthusiasm and eagerly looking forward to the beginning of the literary and artistic program.
At that time, the square was full of Chinese red, everyone's face was filled with a smile from the heart, and everyone celebrated the arrival of New China with the best spirit.
I don't know which art group in the photo is performing, has it just finished the performance, or is it full of anticipation and ready to play? Anyway, they must be in a good mood.
This is the image of the Tiananmen Tower at that time, the portrait of Chairman Mao was hung on it, in January 1949, the peaceful liberation of Beiping, the portrait of Chairman Mao was hung in the Tiananmen Tower for the first time, and the painter was Dong Xiwen.
Then on July 7, 1949, in order to commemorate the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the Tiananmen Gate Tower was renovated, and there were huge portraits of Chairman Mao and Commander-in-Chief Zhu De hanging on it, and the portrait of Chairman Mao on October 1, 1949 was the third edition of the founding ceremony.
A little bit of a hundred flowers in the bush, in a piece of red, the most conspicuous white flagpole from Beijing's water company, it is welded by a tap water pipe, a total of 4 to reach such a height, a total of 22.5 meters, this flagpole used for more than 40 years until it is the age to replace, the quality is really good.
At that time, Tiananmen had not been expanded, the red city wall could be seen everywhere around, it seemed full of a sense of age, the most conspicuous city tower was Zhengyangmen, when the ten major buildings were built, someone proposed to demolish Zhengyangmen, but was vetoed by Premier Zhou, he said, with Zhengyangmen Tiananmen there is a south, so Zhengyangmen was preserved.
At that time, the leaders of the country shook hands with everyone who participated in the founding ceremony, and Chairman Mao was next to Commander-in-Chief Zhu De, with a decent smile on his face.
Chairman Mao announced that "the Central People's Government of the People's Republic of China was established today!" It is understood that Chairman Mao's speech lasted about 10 minutes at that time, and loudspeakers were installed everywhere in the square, the purpose was to let everyone who participated in the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China hear Chairman Mao's speech.
The chairman on this photo does not have a little shelf, talking and laughing with the people around him, and the commander-in-chief Zhu De next to him is also smiling, who can imagine that this is General Zhu De who is dominating on the battlefield, Chairman Mao is still standing behind the revolutionary veteran Dong Biwu, and the surrounding atmosphere is also peaceful, as if everyone has forgotten their troubles in an instant.
At this time, when the military parade began, Premier Zhou retreated to the city tower of the founding ceremony, Liu Bocheng's right, standing behind Lin Boqu, the old man on the far left with glasses poking his head is Lin Boqu, he is the host of the founding ceremony.
I have to say that in this photo, Premier Zhou looks so handsome, he looked at the parade with a smile, gentle and elegant, and there was no shelf.
In addition to domestic leaders, there are also foreign representatives, Ivan Nikitovich Kozhdub is the one who stands out in military uniform, he has won the Hero of the Soviet Union three times, and the others are representatives of foreign circles.
This is the cavalry unit in the military parade, it can be seen that their clothes are not as good as they are now, but these clothes are already their most brand-new and most reflective of the spiritual clothes, they walked through the viewing platform in an orderly and high-spirited manner, and were inspected by the leaders of the country and the people.
The chariot troops inspected and passed through the Tiananmen viewing platform in turn according to the previously rehearsed formation, led by the tank of the "Meritorious Hero", and the soldiers on the tank waved the five-star red flag majestically.
At the front of the procession was a portrait of Stalin, who gave us a lot of help during the new democratic period.
Moreover, from the beginning of the establishment of our Communist Party, to the promotion of cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the ten-year civil war, the War of Resistance against Japan, etc., the Soviet Union has given us a lot of help, and it can be said that the Soviet Union began to help China as soon as it was established, which is not an exaggeration, so it is understandable that the portrait of the Soviet leader Stalin is ranked first.
This woman with exquisite makeup is Ms. Song Qingling, who you and I are familiar with, is the vice chairman of the first Central People's Government.

This is the band at the founding ceremony - the United Military Band, the conductor is Luo Lang, at this time the national flag and the national anthem have just been determined, and the orchestra at that time is playing the "March of the Volunteers", that is, the national anthem.
FIGURE 16
At that time, China was in ruins, and cameras like this were very rare, and the people who participated in the celebration and the little girls who participated in the art show were very interested in this advanced instrument, and rushed to circle around this big guy.
In the picture, a girl is standing in front of the camera and watching, and there is a girl in the back who is also looking at the probe, so it should be her turn next.
FIGURE 17
These are the young students who participated in the founding ceremony, and they are shouting slogans at this moment.
I have to say that fashion is a circle, and the hairstyles they kept at that time were exactly the same as the hairstyles of many boys now, full of youthful vitality.
At that time, the grand occasion of the founding ceremony, the far left is Zuo'anmen, it is different from the fate of Zhengyangmen, it was later demolished, it is said that it was because of disrepair, Liang Sicheng strongly opposed the demolition, but in the end the enemy could not meet the general trend it still collapsed, I can't say whether it should be regretted, if it is left until now, I don't know if there is a past style.
There are so many Chinese, and it can be seen from the crowd in Tiananmen Square at that time that in addition to the red flag, it is a head, even if there are many people, many people are reluctant to leave, after all, this is a big day, and they are not allowed to come to "join in the fun"? #文章首发挑战赛#
