Its main functions are:
(1) promoted domestic unity and all-round resistance.
First, propaganda promotes the unity of the two parties. After the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War in Shanghai, China and North Korea indicated that they would start the second cooperation. On September 22nd, 1937, the "Declaration of China Producer Party * * * * Towards National Disaster" was issued. On September 26th, the third issue of Anti-Japanese War,No. 12, Tao Fen published "Critical Expression of National Unity" in time, warmly welcomed the statements of the two countries, and pointed out: "Such national unity is the most important condition to ensure the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, and it is a major blow to Japanese imperialism!" At the time of national disaster, Zou Taofen abandoned the festival that was put into prison by the reactionary government, and published an editorial entitled "How to support Chiang Kai-shek until the end of the Anti-Japanese War" (No.30) in Wuhan, calling on the people of the whole country to "work together under the leadership of the government and leaders who are determined to fight against Japan, * * * to save from peril." The second is to mobilize the people of the whole country to fully resist Japan. The third issue of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression published many articles, emphasizing the importance of mobilizing people and the universality of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. For example, Military Politics and People (No.3), National People's Mobilization Book (No.0/8, No.0/9), Comprehensive Interpretation of the Anti-Japanese War (No.0/8) and Wartime Education Plan (No.7). These articles emphasize the need to mobilize the people widely and "integrate the military, government and the people". In this regard, the three journals of the Anti-Japanese War not only discussed and designed in theory, but also achieved remarkable results in practice. Just to give an example: A letter from a young student named "Stone Axe" in Guangwu, Henan Province was published in No.75 "Mailbox": "I am an enthusiastic reader of the third issue of" Anti-Japanese War "... every time I receive it, I am nervous and happy ... At the same time, I gradually realize that I should do my best in this great era of national liberation." The letter said that he graduated. It can be seen that the publication scope of the three anti-Japanese war periodicals is wide, which has a deep influence among the masses and has achieved great results. Therefore, Zhou Enlai said in his condolence letter to his family after Zou Taofen's death: "In his works, China people's awakening and unity were cultivated".
(two) the propaganda of Marxism Leninism and China * * * production party.
One is to publicize Marxism-Leninism theory. In addition to the aforementioned "Soviet Special Issue" in the 24th issue of the third issue of the Anti-Japanese War, the magazine also published Marx's sympathy for China's national liberation war (No.68) and Sun Yat-sen and Lenin (No.39) to publicize Marxism-Leninism to the people. The second is to publicize the anti-Japanese deeds of China's * * * production party and its army. 19371937 February 29th "China * * * Producers' Party Declaration on the Current Situation" and1937 September 13 No.8 Electrified Zhu De's inaugural speech in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, etc. , let the people of the whole country hear the voice of the producer of China * * * from another channel, and expand. The article "On the Eve of the Main Battle in North China" (No.12) reported that our army ambushed a Japanese division in Pingxingguan and won its first great victory since the Anti-Japanese War. The third is to publicize the practice of political power construction of China's * * * production party. Yan Shu's Records of the Border Region is divided into Outline of Political System, Civil Affairs and Financial Difficulties, National Defense Education, Northern Shaanxi Public College, China Anti-Japanese Military and Political University, Current Situation of Economic Construction, Economic Construction Plan, Judicial System, Characteristics and Tasks of Mass Movements, Organization of Mass Organizations, etc.
(3) Training and preserving talents for the publishing industry in New China.
According to Zhang's memory,1September, 938, Zou Taofen met it for the first time under his contact and introduction. Shortly after the meeting, Zou Taofen asked to join the party. Although he finally stayed outside the Party for the needs of the Party, at least at this time, Zou Taofen had accepted the leadership of the Party in thought and action, and Zou Taofen had found his own faith. At this time, it was only six years before Zou Taofen's life ended. However, "if you listen to Taoism, you will die at dusk." Since then, inspired by his strong spiritual strength, Zou Taofen has made every effort to edit and publish the third issue of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the National War of Resistance, not only "speak out what the people want to say, what the Kuomintang reactionaries refuse to say, and what Xinhua Daily is inconvenient to say", but also trained and preserved a group of talents for the publishing industry in new China. Colleagues who rallied around Zou Taofen when editing and publishing the Third Newspaper of the Anti-Japanese War, behind Zou Taofen, mostly became the backbone of the new China construction cause, especially the publishing cause. After liberation, he served as deputy mayor of Shanghai, director of the General Administration of Publishing and vice minister of culture, Qian Junrui served as vice minister of culture, Hu Sheng was the first president of People's Publishing House after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Zhang was the editor-in-chief of Sino-Soviet Friendship magazine, and cartoonist Cai Ruohong presided over the establishment of the first public photo publishing house specializing in comics in New China. In the face of Japan's brutal aggression, the outstanding elements of the Chinese nation are more closely United.
Although the Three Reports of the Anti-Japanese War has been edited and published for less than a whole year, its historical role in the country and the people is enormous. It is such a small publication that comes out every three days. It used to soothe the hearts of ordinary people, inspire the fighting spirit of anti-Japanese heroes, arouse the awakening of the whole nation and call for an all-round war of resistance in the twilight of war-torn Shanghai and Wuhan.
"A scholar loves his country and has nothing but a pen like a knife in his hand." Mr. Tao Fen is immortal, and the spirit of Tao Fen is immortal-the spirit of Tao Fen has illuminated the publishers in the 20th century and will also illuminate the road ahead for publishers in the new century.
Original poem:
I'm worried about the nightmare of Lu Chen people. I can't bear to look at those slanderous histories.
Thinking about opening up a new world by storm and thunder, I don't forget to punish the puppet dynasty with iron and blood.
But the evil fox barked for a long time, and the atmosphere disappeared with the remnant snow.
A scholar has nothing to serve his country except a pen like a knife.
