The overseas Chinese flag is the 60th anniversary of the victory of the world people's anti-fascist war, the 60th anniversary of the victory of China people's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, and the 60th anniversary of President Mao Zedong's inscription praising Mr. Chen Jiageng's "overseas Chinese flag, national glory". As an overseas Chinese leader, Mr. Chen Jiageng won the highest evaluation in history. He deserves to be the first flag flying high in the history of overseas Chinese, showing the unique national spirit of self-esteem, self-improvement and self-reliance in the ancient East, and shining the immortal glory of the Chinese nation's unity, hard work, selfless dedication and patriotism. Chen Jiageng's childhood was spent in turbulent times when the country was weak and the people were poor, and he was repeatedly invaded by foreign countries. A hero is known in the time of misfortune. In this magical land of hometown, the patriotic achievements and lofty spirit of national heroes Chen Huacheng and Zheng Chenggong emerge in endlessly, infecting and cultivating Chen Jiageng's noble sentiment of sharing worries for the people and serving the country. From 65438 to 0890, his father Chen did business in Nanyang, which provided a platform to show his life opportunities-doing business. Chen Jiageng has accumulated experience in managing industry, and thinks that shopping malls are like battlefields. Only by knowing ourselves and ourselves can we be invincible. Therefore, in his numerous business activities involving all walks of life, he constantly absorbed the advanced management experience and technical level of capitalism to enrich and expand his enterprise kingdom, and constantly adjusted and implemented the control of market operation with extremely keen insight. What's more, when his father's business went bankrupt, Chen Jiageng rallied with great integrity and perseverance, paid off his father's debts, opened up the market, and established Chen Jiageng's corporate reputation and prestige. Chen Jiageng knows that a country's backwardness is bound to be defeated. Only when it is rich and strong can the people be healthy and the nation stand tall in the world. Chen Jiageng has won the initiative and gained rich material wealth in decades of commercial wars. Take the society and use the society. Wealth provides a reliable foundation and guarantee for Chen Jiageng to contribute to society and serve the motherland. This precious spirit is the mercenary nature of the capitalist that Chen Jiageng surpassed as a capitalist. When Chen Jiageng had a certain material wealth, he made two major contributions to the society. 1. Support the anti-Japanese struggle of the motherland and the people of Southeast Asia with huge and limited manpower, financial resources and material resources; Second, do everything possible to set up education to save the motherland and promote the progress of human civilization in the world. Chen Jiageng practiced. He inherited the traditional "sincerity" spirit of Confucianism in China, and influenced and inspired millions of overseas Chinese by surpassing ordinary people's ideological sentiment and personality strength. He went to the national disaster wholeheartedly, which played a role in defeating Japanese aggression and saving the Chinese nation in danger. Chen Jiageng regards "education is the foundation of the country, and promoting learning is the bounden duty of the people" as an unshakable belief to change poverty, enrich the country and strengthen the people. In this way, we can inspire thousands of overseas Chinese in Qian Qian to join the great ranks of rejuvenating the country. In the historical process of promoting peace and civilization of the motherland and the world, Chen Jiageng's lofty thoughts and outstanding organizational leadership emerged, and the position of overseas Chinese leaders gradually formed and consolidated. Similar to Thailand, Singapore is a tolerant country. It is not only the gathering place of immigrants from various countries, but also the center of Chinese economic, political and cultural development, which has exerted an inestimable influence on Southeast Asian countries, especially Chinese society. This also provided an activity stage for Chen Jiageng to carry out the overseas Chinese movement, help organize the Anti-Japanese War, promote education, and even become an overseas Chinese leader who was wholeheartedly supported by overseas Chinese. The important task of leading Chinese communities and organizing anti-Japanese war organizations can only fall on Chen Jiageng in history, such as Fujian Guild Hall, Boxer Rebellion, Singapore Relief Society and Nanqiao General Association. This has created favorable conditions for the implementation of Chen Jiageng's grand strategy and the display of lofty ideas of overseas Chinese leaders. The following are fragments of memories of several historical stages and later generations, which shows that Chairman Mao's lofty evaluation of Chen Jiageng's "flag of overseas Chinese, the glory of the nation" is well deserved. From 65438 to 0909, Chen Jiageng met Sun Yat-sen in Singapore and was deeply influenced by Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary thought. 19 10 joined the Chinese Revolutionary League with his younger brother Chen Jingxian and generously funded Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary activities. 19 13 years, Chen Jiageng returned to his hometown to establish Jimei school. Since then, Chen Jiageng has closely linked individual enterprises and interests with revolutionary activities, education and the future of the motherland. Since the Chinese nation launched the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Movement, Chen Jiageng bears the brunt. As early as 1928, in the Jinan tragedy made in Japan, he organized the Shandong Disaster Relief Association to boycott Japanese goods, which caused the rubber factory to be burned by profiteers and suffered heavy losses. 1937 After the July 7th Incident, Chen Jiageng initiated the organization of the Singapore Relief Society, and was promoted to the chairmanship, donating S $10 million to support the motherland War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. 1938, Chen Jiageng was elected as the chairman of Nanyang Overseas Chinese Association for Relief of Motherland Refugees. As a member of the Kuomintang, he criticized Wang Jingwei's ugly face of surrendering to Japan for peace talks and betraying the country. Zou Taofen commented that Chen Jiageng's telegram to Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, "The enemy is the country's order, the traitor" is the greatest proposal at all times, at home and abroad. "It shows Chen Jiageng's fearless spirit, distinguishing between love and hate, hating each other like hatred, and being loyal to his country. 1939, at the call of Chen Jiageng, more than 3,200 South Bridge mechanics entered the hard motherland and wrote the touching story of "a child's meritorious service" with their lives and blood. The history written by Nanqiao mechanics with life and death reflects the national spirit of Chen Jiageng's patriotism. During the period of 1940, Chen Jiageng's life track changed fundamentally. He led a delegation of returned overseas Chinese to visit Chongqing successively. What Chen Jiageng saw was Chiang Kai-shek's profligacy. Then he went to Yan 'an-the leader of the Producers' Party was honest and upright, and the Eighth Route Army in Yan 'an was strict in military and political affairs, which let Chen Jiageng know the truth. He seemed to see the dawn in the vast darkness, and decided that the hope of the Chinese nation was in Yan 'an, on Chairman Mao and the producer party. From then on, Chen Jiageng became the most enthusiastic and sincere friend of the China * * production party, and strongly supported the China * * production party's anti-Japanese and national salvation movement from the aspects of manpower, material resources and financial resources with great patriotic enthusiasm. Supplement: 1994 16 On May 6th, the former secretary of Sichuan Provincial Party Committee, Tian Bao, led a delegation of the National People's Congress to visit Jimei. He recalled to the author that when 1940 was in Yan 'an, he had listened to Mr. Chen Jiageng's speech and wore rubber shoes presented to the Eighth Route Army by Mr. Chen Jiageng on behalf of overseas Chinese. It is reported that Tianbao once carried Mao Zedong, who was injured in the Long March, and also listened to Chairman Mao's lecture at Yan 'an Central Party School. Interestingly, his name was also named by Chairman Mao, which means Tianbao. He said that the most unforgettable thing in his life was the crisis of the Chinese nation during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, and he was deeply proud of the teachings of two great leaders. July 2005 1: The author received Zou Yu, former Minister of Justice of China and now Director of the Legal Advisory Committee of the China Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese. When introducing Chen Jiageng's visit to Yan 'an in 1940, he excitedly recalled: "I heard Mr. Chen Jiageng's speech in Yan 'an 66 years ago, when I was only 19 years old. I remember the lecture was held on the outdoor playground, in Chen Jiageng and Zhu De's place. The report greatly boosted the morale of the soldiers and excited people. "Chen Jiageng's anti-Japanese war determination, patriotic enthusiasm and the great demeanor of overseas Chinese leaders are deeply imprinted in the hearts of the Eighth Route Army. The trip to Yan 'an is a milestone in Chen Jiageng's political life and a historic leap. 1977 On August 2 1 day, Wang, vice president of Nanqiao Machinist Yunnan Friendship Association, and his relatives visited Jimei. During the Anti-Japanese War, 80-year-old Wang actively responded to Mr. Wang's patriotic call, bid farewell to his relatives, and risked his life to join the mechanic team and support the motherland. As a survivor, meritorious service and patriot of Nanqiao mechanic, he was invited to attend the 80th anniversary celebration of Jimei School. This time he returned to Jimei, mainly to let his relatives and future generations feel Chen Jiageng's patriotic education. During the conversation, Wang Lao told us emotionally that his ancestral home was Putian and he left his hometown when he was young. It has been more than 70 years now. Wang Lao also recalled that at that time, he had to meet several conditions to participate in mechanical engineering: skilled in technology, able to speak Mandarin, politically innocent, with more than two guarantors, aged between 20 and 40. When asked why he joined the machinist team, he said emotionally: "Every man is responsible for the national disaster." From June 5438 to 10, 2004, Wang, as the president of Nanqiao Machinist Yunnan Friendship Association, came to Jimei for the third time to attend the commemoration of Mr. Wang's birthday 130, and made a very touching speech at the report meeting based on his personal experience. Supplement: On August 24th, 1995, 80-year-old famous film performance artist Xiang Kun visited Jimei with his family. As we all know, Xiang Kun once played a major role in the movies "The Northern War", "Eternal Life in Fire", "After the Armistice" and "General with Sword". It is reported that he had close contact with Mr. Chen Jiageng in his early years and admired Mr. Chen Jiageng's great spirit. So this episode is mainly to implement the TV series that he spent more than ten years painstakingly building. The play reflects the epic grand scene of overseas Chinese leader Chen Jiageng leading overseas Chinese to support the motherland's anti-Japanese war during the Second World War. From June 5 to 10, 2004, the TV feature film Unforgettable Memory directed and performed by Xiang Kun was broadcast in Jimei, Mr. Chen Jiageng's hometown, which caused a sensation. Chen Jiageng's overseas Chinese flag and national glory have nurtured a generation of great overseas Chinese mechanics. The TV feature film Unforgettable Memory shows us that in order to transport the anti-Japanese military supplies to the anti-Japanese front, Nanqiao mechanics experienced many difficulties and obstacles, and they used their lives and blood to ensure the smooth flow of this anti-Japanese lifeline. During the three years from 1939 to 1942, Nanqiao machinists rushed to transport 452,000 tons of military supplies, with an average daily transportation volume of 300 tons. The departure date of the first batch of Nanqiao mechanics is1February, 939 18, which happens to be the Lunar New Year's Eve. At the time of national disaster, in order to kill the enemy and serve the country, those respectable and lovely Nanqiao mechanics reluctantly left their relatives and volunteered to join the team that returned to China to fight against Japan. This childlike sense of loyalty to the country is the spirit of our nation. One day in June, 1940, 1 1, 66-year-old Chen Jiageng, with the great trust of 8 million overseas Chinese in Nanyang, came to the front line of the mechanic's battle. This encounter is not a flash of lightning, but a clear spring that permeates every day of life. More than 3,200 overseas Chinese mechanics, * * * 1000, gave their precious lives for the motherland. On the sacred land of Yunnan-Myanmar Highway, an average mechanic died for it every kilometer.
