However, at that time, China had been devastated by years of war, and China's leaders were faced with a mess of depressed people's livelihood, backward economy and devastation. However, the government and people have not given up. After three years of economic recovery, the national economy has been fundamentally improved. During this period, good news such as the victory of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea and the peaceful settlement of Tibet continued. The success of land reform has improved the enthusiasm of agricultural production and completely eliminated the landlord class. This is also an important and wise decision in our history. Although the economy has greatly improved, China is still an extremely backward agricultural country, so the Party and the Central Committee have formulated the first five-year plan for the national economy. During the implementation of the "First Five-Year Plan", three major projects, namely, the commissioning of large-scale rolling mills in Angang, the production of the first car and jet plane, the completion of Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge, Sichuan-Tibet, Qinghai-Tibet and Xinjiang-Tibet highways, the promulgation of the first constitution and the northeast industry, were successively completed.
At that time, after three major transformations in China, the government and people were ambitious and thought that economic construction could be faster, so they made huge mistakes, such as "surpassing Britain to catch up with the United States", "planting corn is higher than people" and "the yield per mu is tens of thousands of kilograms" ... The Great Leap Forward and the people's commune movement were launched under these vigorous slogans, which also brought great difficulties and disastrous consequences to the people of China. Then, because of Mao Zedong's left-leaning thoughts in his later years, he launched the "Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution", which was very wrong. Jiang Qing, Lin Biao and others took advantage of the crisis to seize power, and China's socialist cause was at stake for a whole decade. Coupled with the hatred and hostility between the United States and Japan, our country was once in chaos.
"1979, it was a spring, and an old man drew a circle by the South Sea in China, miraculously rising to build a city and miraculously gathering Jinshan ..." All this chaos finally came up at the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the China Producers' Party from February 22 1978 to 18. The implementation of the household contract responsibility system in rural areas, the establishment of special economic zones such as Shenzhen and the reform of state-owned enterprises have accelerated the pace of construction in China, and the reform, opening up and socialist construction have entered a new stage of development. With the continuous improvement of the country's economic level, "the lion of the East began to awaken", and China gradually showed its image as a great country. Hongkong returned on July 1, Macau returned on February 20th, and China joined the World Trade Organization in 2006 ... The 29th Olympic Games was successfully held, which made the whole world appreciate the elegance of an ancient civilization. In 2008, a comprehensive financial crisis broke out, and China fully fulfilled its responsibilities as a powerful country.
This year marks the 60th anniversary of the founding of China, and I am proud that I am from China! Motherland, you are always full of hope, you are always full of vitality!
3. Brilliant footprint
60 years, the day when we live, the bomb command room, 60 years, the land in China has undergone tremendous changes. In 2009, our great motherland celebrated its 60th birthday.
1949, People's Republic of China (PRC) was founded! The people of China, suffering from war and backwardness, have finally stood up again! China, like a dragon, once again stands in the east of the world as a big country!
At that time, the people's livelihood in China was depressed, the economy was seriously backward, and the national cause was in ruins. In the face of devastated China, the government and people did not flinch and went forward bravely. It took only three years to restore the national economy and a number of touching stories emerged.
After three years of economic recovery, the national economy has been fundamentally improved, and industrial production has exceeded the highest level in history. However, at that time, China was still a backward agricultural country, and the per capita possession of many industrial products was much lower than that of developed countries.
In order to carry out socialist construction in a planned way, our government began to formulate a five-year plan to develop the national economy. The first five-year plan was implemented from 65438 to 0953, which became the starting point of China's industrialization.
At the beginning of the first five-year plan, the level of industrialization in China was extremely low. Bicycles for travel are called "foreign horses", matches for lighting, matches for nailing things, and nails for nailing things. Because people in China at that time had never seen these novel things, and they couldn't make them. They are all from the west. I didn't experience that hard time, but from the information films I have seen, I can fully understand that the people of China were still living in extreme poverty.
Time is like water, time flies. Time came in 2009, and I was watching the news that the third Antarctic scientific research station in China was built in front of the TV. This is another great achievement, and I began to think about it. I think of the 29th Summer Olympic Games successfully held by our motherland, the Bird's Nest, the heroism of Olympic athletes, the successful launch of manned spacecraft Shenzhou 5, No.6 and No.7, the space and the fact that China has become a pivotal member in the world space field. I think of the average annual growth rate of China's per capita GDP in the whole 30 years of reform and opening up 10%, the national strength of China, the fact that China has become the sixth country in the world in terms of comprehensive national strength, the rapid and sustained improvement of China's international status since the founding of New China, the history of New China and the glorious footprint of New China in the past 60 years!
4. The price of happiness
The national day is coming, and the birthday of the motherland is coming. On the occasion of the National Day, we will receive many beautiful blessings, such as He Guoqing, family celebration and universal celebration; There are official sources, financial sources, both; There is a desire for good popularity, prosperous wealth and unchangeable fate. However, we receive the most blessings, and the most desirable blessing is that well-being and happiness will always accompany us. But have we ever wondered who is serving us without complaint when we go to parks, shoot famous scenery, go shopping in shopping malls and go to the seaside for holidays? What does that mean? What is the price of happiness? ……
In a blink of an eye, five days have passed since the long vacation, and it takes too much energy to go hiking, so I am not interested in visiting nearby shops. I just lie in bed, watch the sunset glow outside the window, turn on the TV, and when I see the words "17: 59: 47" on the screen, I will be transferred to two news programs that my family must watch every day. The news broadcast by the two of them shocked my heart: road builders work overtime and are expected to finish ahead of schedule; The passenger flow of railway traffic has risen sharply, and the service personnel serve customers wholeheartedly; The staff in various scenic spots are exhausted, but they have no complaints ... "Why didn't I think of them?" Yes, how great they are! "Isn't this the price of happiness? Working overtime day and night, continuing to work without regrets, and focusing on service in obscurity have created our happy life. They are working hard for us while enjoying the joy! Although they don't make great contributions or even sacrifices like those famous heroes, I can confidently tell you that they are worth learning and praising. In fact, we shouldn't dream in our heads or just say nice things, but we should do something and find something to sacrifice. But as a student, I can only write down my thoughts, praise them silently and sincerely, and bless them.
On September 25th, 2008, three Chinese astronauts successfully boarded the Shenzhou VII spacecraft, and the eyes of the whole world turned to China again. Previously, the Beijing Olympic Games and Paralympic Games had formed a powerful "China fever" shock wave. The "Shenzhou VII" flying on the eve of National Day once again tells the world that this hot land with a population of 65.438+0.3 billion is not only unobstructed, but also full of passion, dreams and vitality.
Since 1992, when China started the manned spaceflight project, shenzhou spaceship has been out of the cabin for the seventh time. After Shenzhou 5 and Shenzhou VI, China's manned space program has taken a solid step forward. An astronaut will take a spacewalk and complete a scheduled space science experiment. The vast space will show the vigorous posture of China people for the first time. From no one to three people, from the inside out, this is a new height for China's space industry and the Chinese nation.
This year, 10, 1 is People's Republic of China (PRC)'s 60th birthday. This is a beautiful birthday and a happy birthday.
Happiness comes from success. The success of the Beijing Olympic Games has narrowed the distance between China and the world, and let the world know about China. The Chinese nation, once humiliated and suffering, stood in the center of the world stage and attracted the attention of the whole world. As Mr. Rogge, President of the International Olympic Committee, said, "I believe that historians will regard the 2008 Olympic Games as an important milestone in China's major changes."
Happiness comes from a bumper harvest. Thirty years of reform and opening up have brought us too many changes and impacts. Many things that I didn't even dare to think about before suddenly became a reality. Moreover, our greatest gain lies not only in the sustained and high-speed economic development, but also in the obvious improvement of the living standards of urban and rural residents, and more importantly, the valuable experience gained in the past 30 years of reform and opening up. We used to cross the river by feeling the stones, but now we can cross the river by moving the stones. Reform and opening up will go to a "deep level."
Happiness comes from Qi Xin. Since the beginning of this year, China has suffered two rare natural disasters in history. One is the snow and ice in the south, and the other is the Wenchuan earthquake. However, people soon found that from the disaster area to the whole country, from the front to the rear, from donation to payment, there were vivid scenes in which one party was in trouble and all parties supported it. This is a picture of one heart and one mind, and it is also a picture that shakes the world and touches China.
Happiness comes from progress. From "People's Olympics, Green Olympics, High-tech Olympics" to "Shenzhou 7" flying, it marks that China's scientific and technological level has reached a new height. As President Hu Jintao said: "Carrying out the Shenzhou VII manned space mission is the most representative and influential national-level major scientific research practice in China this year, and it is another great feat for our people to climb the world's scientific and technological peak." We are proud and happy to witness this historical moment.
Happiness comes from discovery. At present, an important and urgent political task for the whole Party is to study and practice Scientific Outlook on Development thoroughly. Scientific Outlook on Development is the law and concept of development. Many people used to think that from scratch, from small to large, from less to more, from low to high is development. Today, when we look at development, we should not only look at "results", but also look at "costs"; You can't just look at the "harvest", but also look at the "cost". We should not only let the broad masses of the people enjoy the fruits of reform and development, but also adhere to people-oriented and comprehensive, coordinated and sustainable scientific development.
Because the people are happy and the motherland is happy; Because the motherland is happy, we are happy. Although we still face many contradictions and problems, although the road ahead is still long, historical experience and immediate facts tell us that tomorrow will be better.
