Li Dongdong "talk about the traditional press": red pen blue pen two calm

1946 co-founded the Shanxi "People's Daily", was founded in 1948 in the official newspaper of the CPC Central Committee, "People's Daily", my father worked for forty years in the People's Daily. After he was drafted in the second line "I'm four years in the People's Daily" and "People's Daily rain for forty years" is the most important period of his life's experience record. Close reading of that year and worked with gay friends of my father's memory of his father's paper to write and record the time when bits of stories and the work of some of the details, so I seem to see that the busy years of sound and color, that remarkable newspaper career.

Liren Chen People's Daily, the former deputy editor of Comrade "You hate to go," he wrote -

March 1986, I was mentally prepared for the case without a newspaper leadership took positions directly from the comments by commission deputy director of the Department of deputy chief editor of the newspaper. I ask to Li Zhuang, Qian word he repeatedly, but in seemingly inadvertently gave me the important coaching, of which one is "not only to red pen, but also with a blue pen." Red pen who change other people's presentations, review a larger sample, so that planning, organization of major reports, lead the team; with blue paper, write articles yourself, do not sign off because I'm busy. Over the years, I have not forgotten the teachings of Li Zhuang, a slack will have to use his words inspiring, always forget that he is an editor, is a journalist, red pen, but also with a blue pen. I was able to stick with it, and it is a reminder Li Zhuang had a direct relationship.

I comment on when the work of the Department, he wrote a prose strokes Arbor Day in the commentator's article entitled "to describe all the green picture," Arbor Day with the previous comments are not the same recognition by Li Zhuang. Arbor Day's comments, the Department should be written in the rural areas, but rural areas often to comment on Li Kelin, director of the Department Director Fan Rongkang find, and brought some important news, newsletters, so that helped with the Department reviews comments. At that time, we said Li Kelin as "Li Laotai", as long as Li Laotai a result, a quasi-main event. I had to have received a mandate to bring in a communication with Li Laotai comment. This communication is written, the "Cultural Revolution" period, Xiyang County of Shanxi Province, staged a "North Water Transfer" project is stopped from Xiyang County west of Xiao river flow of the Yellow River, excavated the tunnel passing through the through the Taihang Mountains, from the ground toward the east, and Irrigation Xiyang five communes of land reform into the Haihe River. This "change the world," the so-called big project, which lasted four to five years, nearly five million workers to vote a cost of tens of millions. Smashing of the "Gang of Four", order out of chaos after the project was finally dismount. This is a very painful lesson. In the "Agriculture, Learn", and the knowledge that such projects costly, but no one dare not touch. Li Laotai to get this post, treasure. Fan Rongkang will be assigned with the task of comments to me. I repeated study of this communication, I really felt that this is a very painful lesson over the years, we are engaged in agriculture, one by the movement, and on the "big." Now clearly seen by the endless political movements can not, by the blind of the "big" is not OK. Such a stupid thing, we can not do it again the. After written comments sent by Fanrong Kang Li Zhuang modified. I wish the title was "painful lessons" of the title, and he is not satisfied, are generalized, but urge a tight grip, they handed in a rush. Comment sample to Li Zhuang there, soon rejected. I saw, to our eyes, the title changed to "Do not do anymore," North Water Transfer "type of folly of the." Although the title without punctuation, exclamation point was able to read people. It was in this title published in the paper, very mention gas, is very clear, very loud. Later, this comment was named "China is good news," the first prize, the title is good, this review is one of the reasons compelling.

Midas touch of the manuscript by Li Zhuang Zhubi countless. Some of the manuscript published in the paper before the retreat to the Ministry in, we know that this is Li Zhuang read handwriting reform. Some of the manuscript version in the future on the night, Li Zhuang reform on a large sample, the next day hit the papers, the authors see a change, but do not know who is reform. However, experienced editors, journalists know that Li Zhuang in the night shift, all the color of the title, in all likelihood come from the "Old Li" hands.

... ...

Ministry of People's Daily, the main Renwu Hao original domestic political comrades in the "Road, not a lot of love," he wrote -

Li Zhuang article is my teacher.

Li Zhuang is a teacher in my article.

I said, I should say, Comrade Li Zhuang, a "teacher", mainly refers to the writing said. In those years, I am "People's Daily" published what many of Comrade Li Zhuang himself to turn over.

Someone once said: "People's Daily advantage in the comments, reviews the advantages of Li Zhuang." These words do make sense. Comrade Li Zhuang is a news commentary indeed an expert, or a modification to comments, the initiative, and checking of the experts. In those years, he presided over the night shift, daily newspaper comments, from the "editorial", "commentator's article" to "Today on", "editor's note" almost passed through his hands. Li Zhuang comrades to turn over looked the way, people gasp in admiration of his excellence, serious, wonderful flower pen, meticulous style and style. Comrade Li Zhuang not miss a word to any scrutiny, but also let off a punctuation of any revisions. In my memory, I do not know how many times, are already on the version of the article, Li Zhuang comrades called and told to a word or a punctuation change overnight. Well when I say that he changed, he always modestly said: "fluff! Fluff!"

A newspaper, a journal, some people may like it, some do not like it. Young people like the elderly may not like it, like the elderly, young people may not like it. Market economy, specific to the newspaper, journal, we must grab the reader, who grabbed the reader will come to success. Newspaper content, layout, style, are likely to become their own advantages, but from the text specification, beautifully written, all newspapers are the same. Blunt words, typos piles, indiscriminate use of punctuation, which kind of readers do not like it. Comrade Li Zhuang so-called "fluff" for any newspaper, the editorial staff of any terms, are "carving insects big technology" are an integral hard effort! Comrade Li Zhuang just like this one, these words will always be our model workers.

People's Daily senior reporter Comrade High Qing "permanent pain," he wrote -

I have four years of the People's Daily, from a Maotouxiaohuo son grow into more mature editors and reporters, editing, mining, basic assessment can Nadeqilai, which is leading a lot of old newspapers, old comrades of the guidance to help inseparable and the education of Comrade Li Zhuang, step by step guide, word by word scrutiny, guidance, more prominent changes. It can be said Li Zhuang comrades in the administration, the impact on all of my news in the country, communication, review, reviews, editorials, almost all of Comrade Li Zhuang Fu Zheng and effort, including many one version and a version of the news headlines work, he personally arranged many pages. The care and love, I will never forget.

March 2, 1977, "Renmin Ribao" a headline news "in Xuzhou Railway Branch to withstand the" four pests "from the chaos to rule" and supporting comments "to promote peace and order, to dare to rule" issued through the Xinhua News Agency issued ... ... Central Taiwan headline broadcasts. This stuff, Li comrades were carefully revised and processing.

October 9, 1977, "People's Daily" headline characters through a vertical column title: "fighting a purge" gang of four "poison the people's war", more than six thousand word commentary news, Xinhua News Agency pass is issued, the National Full-text version of the newspaper headline or a reprint of this important ... ... the first draft, Comrade Li Zhuang after the reform has to call personally to tell me specifically on the "People's Daily," a headline.

... ...

May 13, 1983, "People's Daily" published the same day front-page second edition of my three things, a headline news and commentary "exciting revelation," the second version of a long communication, "the changes in Sanming City," the first time introduce a comprehensive system of Sanming City in the reform and opening up drive, adhere to the material-based, spiritual-oriented, soul, grasping the two civilizations, two wheels turn, promote the building of material civilization and spiritual experience. ... ... 12 at 9 o'clock, Comrade Li Zhuang personally called me and said: "Little high, you come to my office again." I immediately rushed to his third floor office, he said to me: "Your old masterpiece Hu (Hu Jiwei when he was president) has been validated, modified, Hu said political checks, we work together, and then from the text of the comments on the appropriate discretion. "So he took out the modified Hu validation sample, one sentence read, a a change, not when he asked me, such a change to see if more accurate, appropriate? The changes together, I talk of the town had to give, his old knowledge of the profound, the strong classical foundation, the text of the accurate, appropriate, and I can not keep up with this life I am afraid to fly.
