Features: "The National Twin Heroes: Black Treasure" is finally completed. On this joyous occasion of Hong Kong's return, I present my heartfelt sincerity as a descendant of the Yan and Huang tribes. Yue Fei of the Song Dynasty, who was loyal and patriotic, and Lin Zexu of the Qing Dynasty, who burned opium at Humen Pass, are two great national heroes in the history of the Chinese nation. Their love for the country and their noble righteousness have been revered by the Chinese people for thousands of years. The poem "Heroic Spirit" embodies the heroic of the poem, and the book combines the posture of the dragon and the tiger. Yue Fei and Lin Zexu are not only great national heroes with indomitable spirits, but also talented poets and calligraphers. Yue Fei's poem "Man Jiang Hong" is already widely acclaimed, with its intense emotions and passionate enthusiasm, embodying Yue Fei's heroic spirit of loyalty and patriotism and his fighting posture. Even when imprisoned, he never forgot [When will I be called to lead the army, with one whip flowing directly to the clear He and Luo]. Lin Zexu's lines [The smog of the barbarians is swept away, and the sea is like a mirror; the clear spirit will remain in the land of Yan for a long time] are even a song of noble righteousness for the Chinese nation. The lines he wrote when dismissed from office and exiled: [My strength is weak but the burden is heavy, and I am exhausted; if it benefits the country, life and death are given; why avoid happiness and pursue misfortune!] show his focus on the greater good of the nation, his willingness to face danger, and his noble quality of being willing to sacrifice his life without hesitation.
