Why was the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China in 1949 chosen to be held at 3 pm on October 1? Who proposed and designed the automatic device that Chairman Mao Zedong used to push the button to raise the five-star red flag? How about the preparations for a large and complex organization? Although 60 years have passed since the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China in 1949, it still maintains great historical charm. In the golden autumn of October, when the whole country solemnly celebrates the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the reportage "Founding Ceremony" written by Lin Yuhua recreates for us the exciting historical scenes of that year. The central government established the Preparatory Committee for the Founding Ceremony of the People's Republic of China in 1949. The situation developed rapidly and unexpectedly. The People's Liberation Army swept away the millions of Kuomintang troops with overwhelming force. After the People's Liberation Army occupied Chiang Kai-shek's Presidential Palace, the Blue Sky and White Sun Flag was chopped down from the flagpole of the Presidential Palace.

This is a story that reflects how young intellectuals in small towns face and solve the problems of having children and caring for the elderly, how they maintain their original aspirations under the impact of the economic tide, and work hard for love and ideals. An ordinary teacher couple who had no intention of having a second child had to give birth to a boy during the most stringent period of family planning enforcement; a law-abiding Communist Party member had to illegally bury his father in accordance with his last wishes at the most stringent point of funeral reform. Life and death are major events in life that everyone must face and cannot avoid or escape. And every time we encounter life and death, tradition, secularity, human nature, and human hearts can all be fully demonstrated. Chen Qi's confusion is also our confusion. How do people in small towns face and solve the life problems of birth, old age, illness and death? The work makes useful explorations and attempts.
