Original poem:
Blocks of wasteland, water and mud, plowed deeply and carefully to move things around.
Lao Niu also understands that time is valuable, and he does not wait for the whip to be raised.
Meaning: There is water and mud in the wasteland, and you have to plow deeply and carefully over and over again. The old cow also knows that time is precious, and he will not wait for others to whip him, so he can move forward and work hard.
From: "Old Scalper", a poem about cattle by the great contemporary poet Zang Kejia.
Extended information:
The spirit of "Old Scalper" is a concentrated expression of the party's purpose of serving the people wholeheartedly.
"Old scalpers" have the lofty goals of communism in mind, the firmest beliefs, and the most loyal to the cause; they have the heroic ambition of "not being afraid of hardship and not being afraid of death" and the revolutionary spirit of hard work. Have the courage to overcome all difficulties to win victory; have a strong sense of revolutionary ambition and a high sense of political responsibility, be consistent in work and never slack off; endure humiliation, be selfless, give more but ask for less, never care about personal fame and fortune, and work for the benefit of the people Work hard and die.
However, in many places and units, "old scalpers" fall into the situation of being ridiculed and even "slaughtered", and some become "old scalpers" because they are trapped in bad social atmosphere and cannot extricate themselves.
Of course, most of the "old scalpers" still make contributions to society tenaciously and down-to-earth with the "cow temper" that they would rather die than return. Kong Fansen, Li Guoan, Wu Dengyun, etc. are their representatives. The hearts of the people call for "old scalpers", the heart of the party calls for "old scalpers", and society calls for "old scalpers".
