An exemplary leader

Today is the 34th teacher's Day, and as in previous years, I have received holiday greetings from students who have been in all parts of the country and have done meritorious deeds on all fronts. This is perhaps the happiest and proudest day for me as a teacher. However, what makes me even more unforgettable is that I read President Zhou Qing's speech "be a man of character" at the opening ceremony of Nanchang 28 Middle School, which is a student of the art group I brought in the past, and now I saw it in Wechat, the vice principal of my alma mater. I read it affectionately over and over again, completely immersed in the beautiful articles that are full of literary talent and inspirational, refreshing and refreshing between the lines. That profound thought, sincere emotion, whipped into the inside, good guidance. I seem to be an audience sitting in the audience, listening attentively to the speech and still ringing in my ears.

It is safe to say that this is a manuscript written by Principal Zhou himself. There is no mandarin, platitudes or jargon in this speech. Like a kind elder who is making a living with the younger generation. The first statue of Nanchang 28 Middle School Education Group, which also represents the spiritual outlook of 28 Chinese people, was officially completed as the main line. Talk about how to be a man. Be a man of character and unfold. According to the classics, the article annotates the profound meaning of character. The aim is to ask the students to follow the example of Xie Dieshan, a poet of the Southern Song Dynasty, and to be led by the style of stacking mountains. He said meaningfully that I hope that you bury your books today and study hard, not only to settle down in the future, to be a person with knowledge and culture, but also to become a person with ideals and morality, a person with family and world feelings, such as Xie Dieshan. Learn the skills well and serve the motherland. In such an increasingly pluralistic society, in this era of lack of faith, we urgently need such a spiritual leader. We erect his statue at the intersection of the teaching building, and we also erect him in everyone's heart. This is not only a statue but also a monument.

It is conceivable that listening to the headmaster's emotional speech, the students seem to be enjoying a spiritual feast. Just as they enjoy the luck and happiness brought to them by the new campus: there are willow Yiyi in spring, Hawthorn fragrance in summer, ginkgo biloba in autumn and winter plum in full bloom. Such happy times often surround us, like the spring breeze in March and the warm sun in winter. So, when we step into the school gate against the rising sun, should we think: what on earth should I do to live up to the luck that God has given me? What on earth should I do to be worthy of this beautiful place?

I am an art teacher who retired before entering the new school in 28. Although I have not personally experienced the comfortable environment of the new campus, I have personally experienced scenes of little-known stories in the construction of the new school. Especially the touching scene that happened to Principal Zhou.

As the head of Nanchang 28 Middle School Education Group, he has a myriad of daily work and worries about both new and old campuses. Due to the demolition and construction of the subway in the old campus, the municipal government transferred the former college of education next door to our school to build a new school. The planned area of the original new school is small. Consider the long-term interests of the school. The school advocates re-planning, expanding the scale of the new school, increasing the area, and improving the construction of supporting facilities. However, the new school planning is already under the overall planning of the municipal government, and it is not easy to change. Principal Zhou worked so hard for this that he forgot to eat and sleep. Many times personally went to the municipal party committee and municipal government to appeal, state the reasons, and earnestly request. With the unremitting efforts of President Zhou, he finally won the second phase of the demolition compensation construction project.

In order to make the project delivered on time and put into operation, he often goes to the construction site alone to check the progress and learn more. No matter the wind or rain, I enjoy it. I was also invited to accompany him to inspect the construction of the new school several times.

President Zhou Qing was transferred to 28 Middle School in early 2014, and a series of education reform measures were an eye-opener. Adhering to the purpose of keeping in mind, fulfilling the mission, adhering to people-oriented, scientific management, and forming a scientific, democratic and orderly school management system. It is everyone's motto to formulate school rules, school motto and learn excellent others, to be the best self-made motto; to uphold the teaching style of virtue, morality, erudite and good teaching, to build a harmonious, honest, truth-seeking and good school spirit, to cultivate a happy, thoughtful, thoughtful and persistent style of study; to re-establish the school emblem, school flag and school song; to balance teachers regardless of key classes; to abolish examination rankings. All cadres are assigned to various teaching and research groups to participate in the assistance work; boldly pilot, set up artistic characteristic classes in junior high school; attach importance to teachers' growth, improve teachers' incentive mechanism, and form a strong academic atmosphere; since the establishment of Nanchang 28 Middle School, I am the first beneficiary to publish a personal monograph "Aesthetic Education Life, colorful chapters" sponsored by the school. Care about the lives of teachers, set up a staff canteen, provide free lunches, and so on. Through several years of successful operation, various undertakings have been carried out vividly and well received.

Although headmaster Zhou and I have not worked together for a long time, we have established good channels of work and communication with each other. One of the reasons is that he is not only a senior educator, but also a calligrapher and writer. We have a common language in many ways. And appreciate each other. His calligraphy is vigorous and magnificent, with a combination of strength and softness, ink interest and distinct style. He recently participated in the Nanchang Fenghe Cup calligraphy competition and won the first prize. His writing style, fresh and beautiful, ancient and modern, shows a profound cultural heritage. He is generous and kind, sets an example and takes the lead. He is hard-working, hands-on, talented, but low-key. Yesterday, because I wanted to write about him, I was looking for his resume on the Internet, except for some reports about his participation in activities. It is difficult to find his special materials. This is for some people who claim to be famous experts and scholars. How commendable his way of life is.

Be a man of character

Zhou Qing

Hello, teachers and students!

Today, we solemnly gather here for the opening ceremony. Today is also a memorable day. The first statue of Nanchang 28 Middle School Education Group, which also represents the spiritual outlook of 28 Chinese people, has been officially completed.

On this special day, I have a lot to say to you. I would like to talk to you about my views, what kind of school we are going to run, what kind of people we are going to be, and why we learn from Xie Dieshan.

It has been a year since the new school moved, and the students must be delighted to feel the great changes in our campus environment. Compared with the old school across the wall, our campus is bigger and more beautiful, and we have a beautiful Chinese garden campus. There are willow Yiyi in spring, Hawthorn fragrance in summer, ginkgo biloba in autumn and winter plum in full bloom. We not only have the most advanced and well-equipped teaching buildings, office buildings, and school canteens, but we also have the East New Art Education of the Urban Children's Palace, our own theatre and recording studios, and we will also start the construction of the second phase of the school project, which we basically have. What a rare thing it is in the old city with an inch of land, how happy and lucky we are to be in such a campus and keep company with beauty every day!

Such happiness often surrounds us, like the spring breeze in March and the warm sun in winter. So, when we step into the school gate against the rising sun, should we think: what on earth should I do to live up to the luck that God has given me? What on earth should I do to be worthy of this beautiful place?

Nanchang 28 Middle School was approved to set up an education group on April 20 last year. We now have Qingyun, Hi-Tech, 14th Middle School and East Henan Campus, and we will have Wanli Campus in the future. We are already the largest junior high school in Nanchang. Now we are involved in a nine-year system, and it is an indisputable fact that our school will become stronger and stronger, but a good school is not only limited to a large number of people. The excellent facilities and the top ranking of the enrollment rate lie in its scientific educational ideas and advanced management ideas, in its strong academic atmosphere, in the spiritual outlook of teachers and students, and in its character.

Yes, it is the character of character. We should do education with culture and heritage, and we should also be people with character.

What is the character? To answer this question is like a thousand readers have a thousand Hamlets, each person's answer is different.

Some people say that the character is that qu Yuan's journey is very long, and I will not stop pursuing it; it is Mencius' wealth, poverty and inferiority, and unyielding power. Lin Zexu can give up my life as long as it is beneficial to the country. How can I avoid it because of the risk? it is Lu Xun's cold face to a thousand fingers, bowing to be willing to be an ox. Some people say that the strength of the wind is that Tao Yuanming does not bend for five dou of rice, Wen Yiduo says and does, and Zhou Enlai studies for the rise of China; others say that the strength of the wind is lofty and aloof out of the mud, and that the world is drunk with my wisdom, that there are a thousand sails passing beside the shipwreck, and that there are 10,000 strong trees in front of the sick tree, which is to eliminate evils for the sake of the holy mind. willing to cherish the loyalty of the remaining years. Although all these theories have different angles and focuses, they tell us the same fact: in the history of the development of the Chinese nation, the wise men and women of all ages took justice and stability of the country as their duty, and they had the responsibility and courage, supported by noble morality, with faith and integrity, wisdom and mind, between right and wrong, black and white, between truth and falsehood, between ideal and reality. Built a lofty spiritual monument style!

Therefore, I hope that you bury your books and study hard today, not only to settle down in the future, to be a knowledgeable and educated person, but also to become a person with ideals and morality, and to become a person with family, country and world. people like Xie Dieshan.

Jiangxi has outstanding people and a large number of talents, of which Xie Diishan is the most representative. Xie Dieshan, who was praised as the poet of Ershan with the national hero Wen Tianxiang, was unswerving, unwavering and unyielding in his life. At the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, he did not hesitate to lose all his property and gathered civil rebels to fight against foreign aggression. After the demise of the Southern Song Dynasty, he kept the Huaibao Festival and refused to be seduced by senior officials of the Yuan Dynasty. Finally, he died on a hunger strike at the Minzhong Temple in the Yuan Dynasty. His life is full of legends. In him, we can see not only the heroism of the Chinese literati, but also the clank and iron bones of Chinese intellectuals who despise dignitaries, hate evil, and love the country and the people.

Today, we chose Xie Dieshan and chose such a leader of the spiritual soul, which is a very meaningful thing. In such an increasingly pluralistic society, in this era of lack of faith, we urgently need such a spiritual leader. We erect his statue at the intersection of the teaching building, and we also erect him in everyone's heart. This is not only a statue but also a monument.

I hope that all of our 28 people can follow in the footsteps of the sages and appreciate their character: fame and fortune is short, and the people of the people will last for a long time! Because, when the dust of history is gone, all we can remember is them. From them, we have tasted rich spiritual food, and from them, we know what kind of people we should be.

And all these are gifts given to us by history.
