Return to 1976: from Educated Youth to Peking University

He remembered that the radical Educated Youth Association would be arrested tomorrow for organizing a memorial event. While suffering from high fever, he prevented the tragedy, but offended the radical leader. In order to change his destiny, he took out his high school textbooks and studied hard all night. Lin Wan, the daughter of the village party secretary, secretly leaves an oil lamp for him every night. When the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination came, he was being criticized for protecting an old professor. He opened the textbook under the oil lamp: "This time, I want to take the exam for Peking University." When the admission letter arrived, Lin Wan stood in silhouette on the mountain ridge in the rain. Many years later, when he took office as Secretary of the Youth League Committee of Peking University, he looked at the desk lamp in his office. I always think of the bean-like light in the cave dwellings in northern Shaanxi.
