Calligraphy of "Reading for the Rise of China"

"Study for the Rise of China", an inspirational quote that inspires Chinese children, was said by Zhou Enlai, aged 19 1 14, when answering a teacher's question. 1On March 5, 898, Zhou Enlai was born in Huai 'an, Jiangsu. 19 10 came to the northeast, first went to primary school in Tieling, and then transferred to Shenyang Dongguan Model Primary School.

19 1 1 One day, President Wei was in class and asked his classmates: Why do you want to study? Students have replied: revenge for parents, be a great scholar, be knowledgeable and polite, let mom and sister live a good life, honor their ancestors, and earn money and make a fortune. ...

Zhou Enlai said in his speech: "For the rise of China!" President Wei was surprised and asked again. Zhou Enlai emphasized: "Learn for the rise of China!" President Wei greatly appreciated his answer.

Extended data:

After the outbreak of the Revolution of 1911, Zhou Enlai took the lead in cutting off his pigtails and contacting progressive books. He read books by Zhang Taiyan, the leader of the Guangfu Association, magazines of the League, and articles by Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao. Zhou Enlai carefully read Zhang Taiyan's obscure ancient prose and Liang Qichao's modern prose.

Although the ideological emphasis of progressive publications is different, the truth of simplicity and patriotism comes down in one continuous line. Zhou Enlai's vision widened with reading, his thoughts were sublimated, and he had his own unique understanding of things. Therefore, when other students haven't figured out why they want to study, Zhou Enlai has clearly put forward "studying for the rise of China"
