In the poet's pen, "reef" has an incomparable firm will and heroic and tenacious fighting spirit. Despite the "endless" storms, it still holds its head high.
Although the "face and body" have been scarred like a knife, they have no fear, never retreat, and remain motionless. They also "laugh at the ocean", face more intense challenges and bear more intense impacts with confidence and incomparable optimism. Is a fearless hero image. Obviously, this "stone" is symbolic.
Background of reef formation:
1954 In July, the poet Ai Qing visited Chile at the invitation of the Chilean House of Representatives to congratulate the great Chilean poet Nie Luda on his 50th birthday. The rock was written by the poet on July 25th, 1954, that is, during this visit.
And at the beginning of socialist construction in new China, everything was in full swing. However, the difficulties faced by China are hard to disappear, let alone "surrounded by imperialism". As far as economic construction is concerned, difficulties and blows have never stopped.
In such a new historical period, the people of China need spiritual encouragement as much as in wartime. Rock and roll was born at the right time, and it really inspired several generations of China people.
