If I could live my life over again, I don't know if Mr. Zhang Jiluan would still choose the news and let his destiny be closely connected with a piece of tissue paper, and they will not be separated until death. The scenery of April 29, 1942 has long become a memory on paper and a past event in the heart of the old man, and all the rock-solid praise has weathered into soil. The glory of being a "literary giant and a master of newspapers" has turned into a pile of bones. All the bones cannot restore a person's voice, smile, appearance, body and flesh. Future generations can only look for Zhang Jiluan's spirit in the distant piles of old papers from the Republic of China. Nowadays, transportation is convenient, and the time to reach the Republic of China is only overnight. I saw Zhang Jiluan in 1913 at the Minli Daily office in Beijing. This thin and short man from northern Shaanxi, dressed in a dark long gown, walked calmly and had a calm demeanor, looked like a scholar from the south of the Yangtze River.
