今天就是七月一日建党节了，我想起许多伟人的动人的事例，如：刘胡兰宁死不屈、王二小引敌人上钩……伟大事例。不过我觉得最让人过目难忘的是彭德怀和他的大黑骡子，听我来讲讲吧。
有一年，彭德怀带领着红三军军团负责殿后，他因为看到战士们一个个因饥饿而到倒就把目光聚集在这匹从江西出发就跟随彭德怀的大黑骡子上。彭德怀把饲养员叫来问总共还有几头牲口，饲养员说：“连你的大黑骡子总共有六头。”“好，全部杀掉吃肉!”彭德怀说。战士们纷纷为大黑骡子求情，彭德怀说：“现在只有杀牲口解决吃的问题。”战士们说不过彭德怀，只好听从命令。彭德怀命令方副官长负责杀骡子。只见方副官长手提机枪，枪口对准了牲口，大家都不忍的闭上了眼睛。读着读着，我的视线模糊了……
这件事例告诉了我们，要时时刻刻为人民着想，这样才能做好一个中国人该做的事。
伟大的国家伟大的党，红日东升照四方，
伟大的人民顶天立地，
伟大的军队握紧枪，
伟大的领袖毛泽东，领导我们向前，大海不能拦，高山不能挡，高山不能挡！
伟大的国家伟大的党，革命的旗帜高高飘扬，
伟大的人民不怕风浪，伟大的军队步伐坚强，
伟大的领袖毛泽东，领导我们向前，祖国要富强，人类要解放，人类要解放！
亲爱的党啊！我们把您比作火红的太阳，可您心中的太阳却是我们新的一代。
我们的伟大领袖毛主席曾经说过：“世界是你们的，也是我们的，但是归根结底是你们的。
你们好像早晨八九点钟的太阳，希望寄托在你们身上。”
我坚信，我们就是沃土里的一颗种子，阳光下的一朵葵花，在党的关怀下，在和煦的阳光下，我们将会茁壮成长，把祖国的明天建设得更加富强。
朋友，我为我们所生活的这个时代而骄傲，无论是迎着朝阳走进教室，还是披着晚霞离开校园，每当仰望那鲜红的太阳，我心潮激荡，我们沐浴着太阳的光辉，让我们放声幸福的歌唱；我们憧憬美好的未来，让我们放飞火红的希望！
CPC's Governing Concept And Its Evolution
How the Party's governing concept has been evolving in the different historic periods
July 1 will be the 86th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and the upcoming 17th National Congress of the Party makes it a special one. The CPC National Congress and the policies adopted by it are usually milestones in the Party's development and exert profound influence on China's development. On the eve of the Party's 86th birthday, Beijing Review interviewed Zhang Rongchen, a professor with the Party School of the CPC Central Committee, about how the Party's governing concept has evolved through different historic periods.
Beijing Review: What was the major task for the CPC immediately after its founding?
Zhang Rongchen: The founding of the CPC in July 1921 was directly influenced by the October Revolution in Russia in 1917. However, the CPC was founded for the specific needs of the Chinese revolutionary situation.
After the First Opium War in 1840, China was gradually reduced to a semi-colonial and semi-feudal country. Then Chinese people faced two historic tasks of pursuing national independence and liberation and building a strong country with well-off people. The fulfillment of these two historical tasks had to start with a thorough anti-imperialism and anti-feudalism revolution.
The people demanded the founding of a Party led by the working class to guide a Chinese anti-imperialism and anti-feudalism revolution. The democratic revolution after the founding of the CPC fulfilled these anti-imperialism and anti-feudalism tasks and achieved national independence and liberation. This meant that the governing status of the CPC was historically inevitable and in line with the interests and demands of the public.
What was the principle and governing concept of the CPC after the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949?
Since the first day of its founding the CPC has taken "serving the people wholeheartedly" as its principle, which has been written into the Party Constitution. In 1944, Mao Zedong made a speech entitled "Serving the People Wholeheartedly," in which he said, "Our Communist Party and the Eighth Route and New Fourth Armies led by our Party are battalions of the revolution. These battalions of ours are wholly dedicated to the liberation of the people and work entirely in the people's interests." This is not only the guiding principle for the army but also the CPC's guiding principle.
With the founding of the People's Republic of China on October 1, 1949, the Party's principle of serving the people has become its governing principle.
The Second Plenary Session of the Seventh CPC Central Committee convened in March 1949 passed new regulations, forbidding birthday celebrations for CPC leaders, discouraging proposing toasts and giving applause to Party leaders, forbidding naming places, streets or enterprises after Party leaders and forbidding ranking any Party leader with Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels, Vladimir Lenin and Joseph Stalin.
When the conference decided to move the headquarters of the CPC Central Committee from Xibaipo in Hebei Province to Beijing, Mao made the famous remarks, "We are going to the capital city for an examination. I hope we can all pass it, and not make the same mistake as Li Zicheng." (Li led a peasant uprising during the late Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). In 1644 his army captured Beijing, and the last Ming Emperor was compelled to hang himself in shame. However, due to Li's corrupt ways, his victory was short lived.) Mao's remark was calling on the whole Party to remain modest, prudent and free from arrogance and rashness in its style of work and to preserve the style of plain living and hard work.
What were the characteristics of the Party, in terms of the tasks it undertook and its theoretical development, directly after it initiated the reform and opening-up policy?
