At the beginning of 1924, introduced by fellow countryman Li Yimang, he was admitted to Shanghai Datong University to study mathematics and physics. He and his friends in Pengxian, Shanghai, established the Pengxian Homecoming Association, with the aim of "connecting feelings, cherishing hometown friendship and encouraging learning". In his letter to his parents, he said: "The biggest purpose of organizing a reunion in Shanghai is to contribute to the county, and the brains of people in the era of Three Emperors and Five Emperors will also change accordingly; In education, we should correct mistakes and pass on some new cultures. Students and schools should be guided in management. Those who are interested in foreigners should be guided and supported. " He encouraged relatives and friends in Pengxian to study in Shanghai. Under his persuasion, Yang, Li Shaowen and other friends went to Shanghai to study and take part in revolutionary activities. He doesn't like "those who study for nothing" and "those who are not deeply involved in the world, don't go to school, wander around all day and spend money indiscriminately". These people are all caused by "not knowing the truth and forgetting who they are". He saw that many students lost their jobs after graduation, and his idea of "saving the country through industry" has been shaken. At that time, with the cooperation of the state, a new type of Shanghai University appeared in Shanghai, aiming at cultivating talents for the New Culture Movement and revolutionary cadres. Yu Youren, a veteran of the Kuomintang, is the president, Deng Zhongxia is the provost, and Qu Qiubai is the head of the Department of Sociology. Some educators, theorists and famous progressives of the * * * production party teach. 1In August, 923, Qu Qiubai's "Shanghai University" was published continuously in the supplement of the Republic of China Daily in Shanghai, and this new type of institution of higher learning was introduced in detail. Many young people are scrambling to read and tell each other. The reputation of Shanghai University spreads far and wide, and many young people envy it. Many young people from Sichuan entered Shanghai University.
At this time, he often goes to Shanghai University to attend lectures, which are taught by producers. He changed the concept of saving the country by industry. He believes that the first task at present is to overthrow the rule of imperialism and feudal warlords, and only then can we embark on the future of revitalizing industry. In his letter to his parents, he said: "At present, our country is invaded by imperialism abroad and ravaged by evil warlords at home. We are in this terrible situation. If we want to save the country and the people, we should abandon the national revolution. " Committed to natural science, although valuable, is not needed at this time. "He is determined to change his life ambition and apply for Shanghai University. Prepare to join the practice of revolutionary struggle. During this period, his father, relatives and friends blamed his letters for flying around like snowflakes. Undaunted, He Bing Yi wrote back to his father and said, "Why do men study sociology? Because men are young people in the 20th century, not old pedants who focus on articles and aim at scientific research in the 9th century. Born in this bizarre 20 th century society, he wants to seek transformation for the 20 th century society and happiness for the people in the 20 th century, that is, to study the truth of life in human society ... This is the main reason why men want to study sociology, and it is also a good and interesting decision for men's character. "
His father had hoped that he could study in a famous national university in Beijing. He Bing Yi had to say to his father earnestly, "Why can't I go to other places and must go to Shanghai?" Because the environment in Beijing and Tianjin is too dirty. Shanghai is a region where world cultures converge. It is the vision of China to spread new trends and transmit light. If you want to find that filthy Beijing and Tianjin, go to a national or ministerial university that has nothing to do with my will, learn some bureaucratic qualifications, dye some politicians, graduate, run around begging for mercy, be crazy about fame and fortune, get married for other girls, grab some money for sin, and earn some false reputation, that is absolutely impossible. He introduced the situation of Shanghai University to his father and said, "I believe that Shanghai University is a top university and its sociology is perfect. I admire and admire its system, organization and spirit. Studying in Shanghai University is more enjoyable than what you get elsewhere 100 times. "
He said proudly, "If a person goes, he feels that the future God is predicting him. It seems to say: you will embark on the bright road and you will get proper comfort; Your future is bright; Your arrow of life will be shot first from now on; Your flower of life will be open from now on. He is determined to realize his lofty ideal and devote himself to the happiness of mankind.
Sociology is the most active department in Shanghai University. Qu Qiubai, Cai Hesen, Yun, Zhang, Shi Cuntong and other theorists have taught here. Most party member and members of Shanghai University are also concentrated in this department. He Bing Yi actively studied Marxist theory here, and also enthusiastically participated in patriotic movements and various social activities. He grew up in the melting pot of this revolution. He and his classmate Liu Hua organized the "Great Alliance against Sichuan Civil War" to oppose the years of melee between Sichuan warlords and poisoned the place. He also actively participated in the work of civilian schools organized by Shanghai University.
Shanghai University students escorted Sun Yat-sen back to his apartment, shouting: "Down with imperialism! Long live the liberation of the Chinese nation! " And other slogans, welcoming the activities as a struggle against imperialist demonstrations. The patrol room actually took the school flag of Shanghai University. He He and others were desperate and argued. Finally, Sun Yat-sen met them in Moliere Road apartment. Under Sun Yat-sen's solemn protest, the inspection room had to return the school flag to the students of Shanghai University. This incident greatly educated the revolutionary youth. In his letter to his father, He said excitedly, "This is the first time for China people to demonstrate to outsiders in the Shanghai Concession. You know, it's not easy for people to March and shout in the concession. But those who are not allowed to March will also March; If you don't shout, you will also shout. Outsiders dare not interfere, which shows that the people are rich and the country is strong. "
During Sun Yat-sen's northward journey, China's * * * production party launched a national conference promotion movement nationwide, and He also actively participated in this movement. He wrote to relatives and friends in Sichuan to explain the purpose of this movement, that is, to use the favorable conditions of Sun Yat-sen's negotiations with Duan government to strive for the convening of a national assembly in line with the people's wishes, so as to strive for the peaceful reunification of the country and abolish the unequal treaties. He wrote in the newspaper: "The correct road and ideal purpose that we should take is to completely revolutionize the national revolution; Overthrow imperialism and warlords, organize a pure national government, and enable the oppressed people to live a real life and happiness. " He often wrote letters to relatives and friends, hoping that they would recognize the face of imperialism and warlords and engage in activities against the civil war of Sichuan warlords. He introduced his compatriots and friends to Guangdong, joined the Whampoa Military Academy and participated in the national revolutionary cause. His younger brother He Bingjun entered Wujiang Guild Hall run by Sichuan warlord Yang Sen, but He Bing Yi strongly opposed it and advised his younger brother to improve his consciousness and leave Wujiang Guild Hall immediately. Under his influence, He Bingjun later embarked on the road of revolution.
The imperialist concession authorities regard Shanghai University, the fortress of patriotic movement, as a thorn in their side, and they will go there soon. 1924 65438+on February 9, the patrol house in the public concession illegally searched the library, lecture room and circulation office of books and newspapers of Shanghai University (selling revolutionary and progressive books and periodicals such as the Guide), and plundered countless books and periodicals. He, one of the leaders of Shanghai University Student Union, and his classmates argued with each other. Foreign police threatened them and said:
"Why do you want to read these dangerous books? You are all dangerous people. You must know that the prison of the Ministry of Industry is very large, and you will all go to jail in the future! "
How many people loudly replied, "Reading books and newspapers is the freedom and right of China people. How can you be allowed to rob our books like a robber! " "Although your prison is big, can it accommodate our 40 million China people?" During the demonstration, the police had to evacuate in a hurry.
Afterwards, He angrily published "The Story of Imperialism Raped Shanghai University" in The Herald, severely condemning the barbaric acts of imperialism in searching Shanghai University. He said firmly that The Herald is the only valuable newspaper in China. This revolutionary publication awakened the people of the whole country to oppose imperialism. The brutal search of imperialism not only did not hinder the publication of the guide, but reminded many people that imperialism is the mortal enemy of the people of China! "
1925 March 12, the great revolutionary forerunner Dr. Sun Yat-sen passed away, and the students of Shanghai University and the people of the whole city held grand memorial services respectively. He read a eulogy at the memorial service of Shanghai University: "We mourn for Dr. Sun Yat-sen, not only with tears, but also with blood; Not only now, but forever! We must cheer up, redouble our efforts, crack down on all reactionary forces and make the revolution succeed at an early date! "
After Sun Yat-sen's death, the Kuomintang Rightists became more rampant. Party member of Shanghai University organized the "Zhongshan Doctrine Research Association" to study revolutionary theory in depth and oppose the right-wing Daiism of the Kuomintang. He mobilized many students to participate in the "Zhongshan Doctrine Research Association" and exposed the fallacies and actions of the Kuomintang Rightists who distorted the revolutionary Three People's Principles and the three major policies against the revolution. He often reminds young people: "We should be alert to the enemy's conspiracy, persist in struggle, and inherit and carry forward Sun Yat-sen's indomitable revolutionary spirit with practical actions."
At the beginning of 1925, he served as secretary of the Shanghai Students' Federation and organization minister of the Shanghai Youth League, and joined the China * * * Production Party. He worked day and night for the revolutionary cause. His parents and wife miss him day and night, and write again and again, hoping that he can go back to his home in Sichuan and see his lively and lovely three-year-old son. However, he thought twice and wrote back: "The climax of the revolution has arrived. You must never leave work and study to go home and visit relatives. Can't go home during the summer vacation. Of course, family members are happy to get together, but it is meaningful not to stay in Shanghai. You can read more books and do more work in Shanghai. Three years later, it's not too late to go home after graduation. If you need to work in the future, it doesn't matter if you go home in a few years. Everything must be based on work. " It shows the lofty thought of focusing on revolution. Only two months after this letter was sent, He Bing Yi died on Nanjing Road in Shanghai. Later, the family took out this letter and wept bitterly. He Bing Yi actively participated in the work of civilian schools (i.e. workers' cram schools), gave classes to workers, mingled with them, cultivated the backbone of workers, and explored the workers' movement based on civilian schools, which embodied the road of combining intellectuals with the workers' movement.
1925 In February, under the leadership of Deng Zhongxia, Li and Li, a general strike of tens of thousands of Japanese cotton mill workers broke out in Shanghai. Shanghai University established the "Shanghai Japan Cotton Mill Strike Support Association". He forgot to eat and sleep, and was busy from early morning until late at night. He mobilized and organized many students from Shanghai University, helped organize and publicize the cotton mill trade unions in the workers' concentrated areas in western Shanghai, and raised funds in schools and shops to help the striking workers. With the unremitting struggle of the workers and the support of the students, the general strike finally won.
After the victory of the general strike, imperialism waited for an opportunity to fight back. 1May, 92515th, Gu Zhenghong, a worker of Japanese cotton mill, was killed. He also actively participated in the activities of "Japanese revenge for killing compatriots" and mobilized students and citizens to participate in a series of protests to raise funds for the relief of striking workers. Imperialism has repeatedly adopted a high-handed policy, constantly arresting students who participated in protests against the Gu Zhenghong massacre. The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China sized up the situation and decided to organize students to give speeches and demonstrations in the concession on May 30th to launch a massive anti-imperialist movement. On May 30th, students demonstrated on Nanjing Road, and slogans resounded through the sky. In his speech, He Bing Yi described with tears, "The plot of the Japanese army to shoot laborers and imperialist aggression. In order to awaken compatriots, * * * resisted the enemy and was impassioned, and the audience was all moved." When foreign countries beat up students and tried to arrest them, He immediately led many students to bravely rush up and take back the injured students, and shouted slogans together from time to time to persist in the struggle. Suddenly, the foreign policeman in the old gate arrest room shot at the students with his bare hands. Party member, the director of the Shanghai Committee of the Communist Youth League and the Communist Party of China, who walked in front of the students of Shanghai University, was shot several times and fell in a pool of blood. He also tried to support himself and shouted "Down with imperialism!" "Long live the liberation of the Chinese nation!" He was taken to the hospital for emergency treatment and died the next afternoon.
Imperialism created the May 30th tragedy that shocked China and foreign countries, and why did it sacrifice heroically at the forefront of the struggle?
The Shanghai Federation of Industry and Commerce, the headquarters of the May 30th Movement, inspired the whole country: "All the martyrs who died tragically shed blood for the country, and all citizens in our country should mourn to show their gratitude for their contributions. We will hold various ceremonies, such as mourning, public sacrifice, demonstrations and so on, on June 30th, the national memorial day for the dead martyrs. This is not only to mourn the dead martyrs, but also to show the courage of the whole country to unanimously resist imperialism. " Funeral committee, a martyr composed of students from Shanghai University. Shanghai University students published "Why Bing Yi was shot by the British and cried to compatriots all over the country" to protest against the May 30th massacre. All walks of life in Shanghai held a grand memorial meeting for the May 30 th martyrs, and at the same time exhibited the deeds, photos and relics of the martyrs, which greatly educated the masses. His parents and wife were shocked by the bad news, sobbing and heartbroken. 1926 In May, the coffin of martyr He arrived in Chengdu, and all walks of life in Chengdu held a grand mourning event.
He was an excellent Communist party member, a model of revolutionary youth, and gave his precious life for the liberation movement of the Chinese nation. His life is short, but he created a splendid flower of life, which will last forever.
