In the two idle hall suddenly saw the signature “Fang Li zhi” of the article, these three words let me recall the university time.
Twenty years ago, I studied electronic engineering at Dandong Normal College. This year half semester, near a few days before the mid-term exam, because my qualification is poor, poor memory, all lack of electrotechnics and English courses, the most annoying is a philosophy class, need to back the concept of a lot, I’d like to open, the midnight song bo also intends to classmate, but schools all 10-point night after lights out, then our partnership to the school rented a house near the village.
Late at night on our second day in our new house, we were reading under the covers when we heard a roar and a clash of clanging clanging sounds coming from the direction of the school. Because they are a couple of lazy people, so although curious, but no one is willing to get up to see what it is. When I went back in the morning, I saw countless pieces of broken glass in front of the dormitory building. When I looked up, the Windows were broken and many students were standing there talking in groups. I had lived on the normal college campus for more than a year, and this was the first time I had ever seen such a scene. At first I thought it was a fight, but later I heard that it was some old living in the eighth and sixth term who took the lead to go out at night to make “solidarity”. Everyone stood here and prepared to take to the streets. I asked a female classmate, no class today? She said she wouldn’t be able to go to any school in the country.
Song Bo and I went to the canteen. We passed the steps. On both sides of the steps were places where people usually put up various posters.
Ever since I entered the teachers’ college, I have been under the pressure of each course, every day back and failed to pass the record, usually simply two ears do not hear things out of the window, single-mindedly read textbooks, really do not know how “cry” Tian ‘anmen.
The normal school reading room is not big, so I don’t even read newspapers when it is full during opening hours. I can go to the counselors’ office to watch TV on Saturday and Sunday, but they are all controlled by fans. Besides, I have to climb stairs.
A few days ago, before the foreign language class, one of my classmates said that college students were “making trouble”. The teacher happened to come in and said, “Now it is not called ‘making trouble’, it is a patriotic action.”
I told Song Bo that college students in Beijing might have marched on Tiananmen square.
It turned out later that he had been on a hunger strike for days.
Song Bo yawned: Oh, or sleepy ah, that is not Tiananmen cry, may be they cry… Who cry?
out of the canteen, first back to the dormitory, the house only Li Erpangzi, he said last night make very fierce, the dean of student office sun stop 86 old students, I heard that was besieged, someone also shouted “down sun Mou”, then many people rushed out. Li Erfatty is as lazy as us. As long as we get into bed, the sky will never climb out again.
At this time outside a roar of joy, we heard the sound of the downstairs, the original is the no. 10 bus came, we all crowded up, also do not have to buy a ticket, I asked Song Bo to go, he said to go, do not have to spend money? So we piled into the car, the six crossings everyone down, there are many students standing there, don’t know where do they get a flag, and signs, then the class of 86 a, in the white suit with a electric horn, command of all teams, I saw the palace of teaching philosophy teacher and counselor jiang teacher in our class, they are all in the team. Thus begins the parade to CaiJiao first, and students to meet there, and then on the street, at this time has been to the police car, in the front for the parade, now that I think about it, seems to have been followed the police car, around the city for more than two hours, then around the back six crossings, then all the way to the city gate “sit”, nor “static”, of course, we chatted, and the city government propaganda, to soda bread, I think gone so long, only ask this, is really a shame, but if what should I say, at a loss. Then came the No. 10 bus, I asked Song Bo to go back no, he said stay a little longer, maybe some bread and soda really. I said I’d go back.
Back to school to sleep until dusk, Song Bo came back, I asked the last hair food, he said no, he and two classmates went to the restaurant, eat a chicken, because hungry ruthless, one end came up on the hand tear, the fingers are hot out of bubbles. I heard that there would be no class this week, and the midterm exam was not an exam, so I danced for joy. The next day, some of the teachers and students to shout slogans in the street, we discussed, decided to go home. At this time also do not need to ask for leave, buy a ticket on the train, most of the train is a student, did not buy a ticket, make us regret, also dare not say that he is a ticket on the car, it may be they laugh teeth.
When I came back from my hometown on Monday, the school was already open. Someone put up a poster saying that they were going to set up a student government. They invited everyone to attend the meeting. Squad leader has not appeared, someone said he went to the field tandem.
Soon I heard that Beijing was under martial law. Then came the news that the crackdown had been cracked down, that people were bleeding and dying of old nose. However, none of the students went out for a parade. The teachers’ college is a provincial school, which is probably the highest institution of higher learning in Dandong. The teachers’ college students did not travel, nor did they hear of any other schools.
This does not rule out the fact that some students have high political awareness, and some school leaders and teachers are timely guiding them in the right direction. However, There are also two main reasons for my analysis. Second, there was no exam, there was no need to toss about. Soon a documentary film of the truth of “riot” began to be shown. Since then, there have been only two reactionary “cases” :
One is someone with a brush in the men’s room to write “do not record 64”, the department received a class notes, in order to check handwriting, I heard really found out, is a little girl as small and exquisite boy, on the spot scared to cry, admitted that he is writing with. Found out to pull down, it seems that he did not punish.
In another dramatic incident, a reactionary slogan spelled out in newspapers twice appeared in front of the school hall, and the case was finally solved, allegedly by the captain of the school security team, in an attempt to make him a priority. He was said to have been seen being put into a police car.
After passing all the final exams in philosophy, Gong said you “gave the best answers with your practical actions” and introduced Shanghai as “handled very well” and its leaders as “brainy”.
During the summer vacation, I went back to my own home and looked for my mother. I met some old classmates who went to school in some cities. They all told me how big the parade was after June 4th.
After opening the school began to “reflection” activities, monitor or not, teachers divide into classes, responsible for leading everyone to reflect on and review, everyone should write a reflection material, and then read it again in public, there is a book about the truth, everyone read a paragraph, discuss a, physics teacher in charge of our class, there is a zhang male classmate talk back to her, said “corruption now is very busy, we took to the streets Shouting down with corruption, what is wrong to rooting out corruption”, her red face, said let’s not be bearded man used, by use of what else to say, is not a political quality low, realize is finished, how still stubborn? After class, the students also help him to change his mind, that you are stubborn with the physics teacher fart use, brain sick?
The physics teacher never asks the classmate for trouble on the exam, I and Li Erfatty still went to her home to have dumpling. Everyone thinks she is the best teacher. With our help, the student surnamed Zhang changed and said no more.
When the squad leader came back, I heard that he had copied some lists of princelings and posted them in other schools. In short, the problems were so serious that they might be punished. At least the squad leader’s position and the probationary party members must be abolished. Later, many of his classmates, including Li Erfatty, joined the Party. He was an ordinary person and did not talk much until he graduated.
Our student director Teacher Sun transferred to the city when the Communist Youth League Secretary, it is said that the normal college students did not march again on June 4, of course, just someone said so, is it because of this, who can not say. He is particularly kind, in the school once he arranged us to participate in the city’s cultural activities, the extra transportation cost was I bought ice cream, distributed to students to eat, he also said “how not all spend”; He lent me his office to rehearse plays, and I smoked in it, and when he came back, he smelled it, and just laughed and said, “You’re so bold, boy.” He went on to become the governor of the province, the biggest official I had known in my early years.
When name is fang, Wang Rewang agitation and manipulate the student unrest behind the scenes, the Ministry of Public Security also sent a warrant, fang of the characteristics of the there is a “walk like tall”, group discussion, we main critique of fang, leader of the leading spokesman, said fang are protected by foreign embassy of escape from the frontier, that means he is the creature of the foreign anti-china forces, then you them to speak, more say more be out of tune, Li Er fat do not know from which sounds, or deliberately, the sum of the fang Wang Rewang said to the couple, said “this had not a good cake”, it was his turn, he fell asleep, after being pushed to wake, Still sleepy eyes dim, vague to say: “I have not seen the square litchi, I eat is round, ‘eat three hundred litchi every day, not for lingnan people’.” Then a stream of sparkling spit came out of his mouth, and everyone was silent, then broke into a long laugh.
Before this had been serious for several days, everyone did not laugh, some did not dare, some may be really sad and angry, but from the “party”, the atmosphere of joy returned to the middle of the students.
Song Bo was a little older than Me. A few years after graduation, he had a motorcycle accident. I heard that his chin was blown off on the spot. He was my best friend in college. If he were alive, he would be 42 years old. As for Fang Li zhi, to now in addition to “walk like erect chest to raise head”, I still know nothing about him, 20 years ago “grow beard” person, estimate now should be old and feeble, return ability to write an article unexpectedly, quite solid.
“Square litchi I have not seen, I eat is round” : now encountered classmates mention this joke, or someone laugh gut pain, but tell my children to listen to a little no effect, they these “nine O after”, even the name have not heard, more do not understand the joke 20 years ago.
