In 2003, Teacher Gong, who had just retired, thought that he could still make a force for his hometown of cultural undertakings, and resolutely devoted himself to the work of compiling "Taiping Town".

This is a job that has never been before in the history of Taiping. The content of the book is widely content, the time span is large, the data is incomplete, and the strong sense of responsibility drives him, and the hard work to find out and go to the village.

In the process of writing, he meticulously visited the old man who was involved in many times. He asked the experts of the city Fangzhi Museum to analyze and verify that he did not let go of any doubts until all questions were resolved.

He stepped forward his firm feet and traveled through the streets of Taiping, writing continuously, and poured into the heart of boxing. With the joint efforts of Teacher Gong and other comrades, the 500,000 -character "Taiping Town" finally came out.

Written the story, continuing the historical context

For a long time, Teacher Gong excavated and rescued a large number of local literary and historical materials that were about to be forgotten. He carefully screened and verified among many information, and then sorted into a book. "The Story of Lixi" and other local cultural works.

In order to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the victory of the Anti -Japanese War, he also visited the Seal of the Suzhou Anti -Japanese War and combined with the red history of Taiping in the early days of the Anti -Japanese War, and wrote a text for the comic book "The Taiping Anti -Japanese Winds". This book also participated in the Fifth Book Fair of Jiangsu Province.

Later, he also participated in the compilation of books such as "Xiangcheng District", "Xiangcheng British Lie" and "Yangcheng Lake". These historical materials and works have laid a solid foundation for the inheritance and development of Taiping historical and cultural.

Founded the exhibition hall, inscriptions on peace memory

A few years ago, Teacher Gong took the initiative to participate in the exhibition work of the exhibition halls such as the Sixi Cultural and History Museum, the former residence of Wang Yan, the former residence of Wang Yan, the Document Exhibition Room, and the former site of the Suzhou County Working Committee of the Communist Party of China.

As a "first leader" written by display data, in order to allow the exhibition hall to display as scheduled, he returned early and even gave up the rest day and diligently wrote and revised the display manuscript. Today, the Lixi Cultural History Museum has become the patriotic education base in Suzhou.

The relocation of the old house caused some cultural heritage to be accidentally lost. Teacher Gong and colleagues immediately launched targeted rescue. These gradually disappeared old objects were brought back to the public's vision and quietly told the money of the working people. years.

To this day, Mr. Gong has not stopped. He still adheres to the bones of people's teachers, adheres to the daily desk work, carefully read various cultural and historical materials, and carefully write the next note.

The history of Taiping is a slow long river. Teacher Gong is like a treasure hunt. He carefully explored the gem in the river carefully and carefully collected them and protect them well.

He travels around the old street every day, leading tourists to the streets with full enthusiasm. His telling seems to give life to the bricks and tiles of the old street, and brings a wonderful air from the past to tourists in the streets.

In the first half of this year, Teacher Gong, in his 80s, accidentally fell and sprained his feet.

Who knew that a few days after the past, he should have been resting at home and appeared on the old street.

The colleagues were very concerned. Please ask him to cultivate at home, but he said something that made people remember. Although I am already a loess buried in the neck, as long as I can still move, I will always be at the Museum of Literature and History. "

The sound was not loud, but it was firm and powerful. I saw on the water surface of the Jimintang River, reflected his figure on the Taiping Bridge, and disappeared far from the shade of the millennium ancient ginkgo.
