这绝对是一份超级事业

这个八月的第三天，我6:20起床，洗澡化妆早餐。今天上午我与卡妮陪同柏林夏洛特大学综合医院消化内科主任Tacke教授去当年法租界望志路106号中共一大会址参观。下周Tacke教授将在盐城市第三人民医院作为国际客座教授工作一周。每一位国际著名专家来到中国上海，我都会带着他们来到这个无比寻常的非凡之地。我就想让他们知道我们的新中国是如何建立起来的。每一个中国人只有真正了解了这28年的奋斗史。你才会知道我们现在的幸福生活是多么地来之不易。你才可以真正明白我们现在遇到的任何困难都不算是困难。19世纪中叶由于清政府的腐败无能和八国联军的入侵，中国彻底沦为了半殖民地半封建社会。1912年1月1日中华民国建立。辛亥革命孙中山推翻了帝制，却造成了军阀混战，官僚资本鱼肉百姓。1918年一战结束，我们赢得了欧战，却赢不了国土。1919年五四运动爆发，中国知识分子由于接受了马列主义新思想，他们开始觉醒。在这种重重困局之下，1921年7月23日来自北京、上海、长沙、武汉、广州、济南的13位学者教师和学生们来到上海召开了中共一大。共产国际也派了两位外国友人前来参会。这13位创始人，他们大多数人会讲流利的英文，他们三分之一有海外留学背景，当时全中国仅仅只有57位党员，中国共产党用了28年的漫长时间经历了重重艰难困苦2370万人民的牺牲，1949年10月1日在北京最终建立了民主自由和平的新中国。我们的新中国是无数先辈的鲜血和生命给我们现在14亿人民换来的盛世中华。我们的楼上楼下电灯电话，我们平静幸福的日月年华，我们现在是全球的第二大经济体，当晚我们可以来到上海的老饭店，我们可以把酒言欢，是前辈们呕心沥血，披荆斩棘，为民族争取到了最后一线生机。所以我们每一个人，是的是我们每一个人都应该为我们的国家出力。只有我们的祖国伟大富强，我们的家人才可以平平安安长大变老。今晚深夜我从我上海飞回了广州。我坐在梨花书桌前读书学习，就像我小时候一般。我也是从一个粉雕玉琢的小婴儿变成了一个成熟美丽的女人。我们都超级喜欢这份工作。好多世界著名专家都告诉我们：这绝对是一份超级事业。为了中国三甲医院，为了中国优秀医生，我们从来不说累，包括我自己。

On the third day of August, I got up at 6:20, took a shower, put on makeup and had breakfast. This morning, together with my colleague Kani, I accompanied Prof. Tacke, Director of the Clinic for Hepatology and Gastroenterology at Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin, to visit the site of the First National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) at No. 106 Wangzhi Road in the former French Concession. Next week, Prof. Tacke will have a week-long visit at Yancheng Third People’s Hospital as an international visiting professor. Every time an internationally renowned expert comes to Shanghai, China, I will take them to this extraordinary place that seems so ordinary. I just want them to know how the People's Republic of China was founded. Every Chinese person, only when they truly understand this 28-year history of struggle, can they realize how hard-won our happy life is today. Only then can they truly understand that any difficulties we encounter now are nothing compared to the past. In the mid-19th century, due to the corruption and incompetence of the Qing government and the invasion of the Eight-Nation Alliance, China was completely reduced to a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. On January 1, 1912, the Republic of China was founded. The Revolution of 1911, led by Sun Yat-sen, overthrew the imperial system but led to warlord conflicts and bureaucratic capitalism exploiting the people. After the end of World War I in 1918, China, despite being a victor, failed to reclaim its territorial sovereignty. In 1919, the May Fourth Movement broke out. Chinese intellectuals, inspired by the new ideas of Marxism-Leninism, began to awaken. Amid these immense challenges, on July 23, 1921, 13 scholars, teachers, and students from Beijing, Shanghai, Changsha, Wuhan, Guangzhou, and Jinan came to Shanghai to hold the First National Congress of the CPC. The Communist International also sent two international delegates to attend the conference. Most of these 13 delegates could speak fluent English, and one-third of them had studied abroad. At that time, there were only 57 Party members in the whole country. It took the CPC 28 long years, going through countless hardships and sacrifices of 23.7 million people, to finally establish a democratic, free, and peaceful People's Republic of China in Beijing on October 1, 1949. The thriving China we enjoy today was built upon the sacrifices and bloodshed of countless pioneers, securing a prosperous era for our 1.4 billion people. From multi-story homes to electric lights and phones at our fingertips, the peace and happiness we enjoy day by day, year after year, our rise to become the world’s second-largest economy, the fact that tonight, we can gather at the Shanghai Classic Restaurant, raising our glasses in joy, all of this was made possible because our predecessors, with wholehearted dedication, cut through thorns and barriers, fought for the last glimmer of hope for the nation. That’s why each and every one of us — yes, every single one — has a responsibility to contribute to our country. Only when our motherland is great and strong can our families live in peace, grow up safely, and grow old with dignity. Late tonight, I flew back to Guangzhou from Shanghai. I sat at my pearwood desk, reading and studying, just like when I was a child. I have also grown from a delicate, jade-like baby into a mature and beautiful woman. All of us truly love this job. Many world-renowned experts have told us: This is absolutely an extraordinary calling. For China's Grade III Class A hospitals and China's outstanding doctors, we never say we are tired, including myself.
