The Yellow River is the mother river and life river of the Chinese nation, and it is also an unruly river of worries. Since ancient times, the management of the Yellow River has been a big problem that puzzles the Chinese nation. The Yellow River An Lan and Haiyan Heqing are the Millennium dreams of the Chinese nation.

　"Kaifeng City, City Stack City"

　　Kaifeng, the ancient capital of the Eight Dynasties in Henan Province, has been flooded several times for thousands of years because of the Yellow River burst. Today, the riverbed of the Yellow River is more than ten meters above the ground in Kaifeng, which is a veritable "hanging river". Kaifeng Tower, which was built in the Northern Song Dynasty, is 55.88 meters high. For more than 900 years, the tower has witnessed the gradual rise of the Yellow River and the heightening of dams on both sides.

　　We can also find some traces of the Yellow River flood from the ruins of Kaifeng’s "City Stacking City".

　　Three to twelve meters underground in the ancient city of Kaifeng, there are six cities stacked on top of each other, including three national capitals, two provincial capitals and one central plains town, namely, Daliang City in Wei State during the Warring States Period, Bianzhou City in Tang Dynasty, Tokyo City in the Five Dynasties and Northern Song Dynasty, Bianjing City in Jin Dynasty, Kaifeng City in Ming Dynasty and Kaifeng City in Qing Dynasty. The six ancient cities stacked on top of each other have witnessed the profound disasters brought by the Yellow River floods to the people in the Yellow River basin for thousands of years.

The Yellow River is peaceful, and the world is peaceful.

　　The Yellow River is the most difficult river to harness in the world. It has always been "good at silting, determination and migration". In history, it has "burst twice every three years and changed its course once every hundred years".

　　During the more than 2,500 years from pre-Qin to liberation, the lower Yellow River overflowed more than 1,500 times and diverted 26 times, including 5 major diversions, which affected Tianjin in the north, invaded the Haihe River system, and reached Jianghuai and Huaihe River system in the south, with a total area of 250,000 square kilometers.

　　In the fifth year of Xianfeng in Qing Dynasty (1855), the Yellow River burst through the Tongwa Chamber in Lanyang, Henan Province (now near Dongbatou in Lankao), causing a breach, and the Daqing River moved northward from Lijin to Bohai Sea, which generally formed the channel of the Yellow River today.

　　1938年，国民党政府在郑州花园口扒开黄河大堤，致使黄河再次南泛长达8年多，造成上百万人死亡，千余万人受灾，直到1947年才在花园口堵口，黄河复归故道。

　　黄河治理，历来是安民兴邦的大事。历史上，为了把黄河治好，多少有为君主宵衣旰食，河工百姓舍生忘死，进行了不懈探索。

　　但长期以来，受生产力水平、社会制度、人为破坏等主客观条件的制约，黄河屡治屡决的局面始终没有得到根本改观，黄河安澜的美好愿望一直难以实现。

　　一部艰辛的治黄史，浓缩出中华民族的苦难史、奋斗史、治国史。

03

从被动到主动的历史性转变

　　黄河治理的千古难题历史性地交到了中国共产党手中。

　　1946年，中国共产党就领导成立了冀鲁豫解放区黄河水利委员会，翻开了人民治黄的新篇章。

　　经过70多年的艰辛探索和不懈斗争，中国共产党交出了一份亘古未有的优异的治黄答卷，从根本上改变了黄河暴虐为害的历史。

　　历史上，当洪水流量超过每秒１万立方米时，黄河下游就要决口泛滥，古时决口相距最久的一次也大约只有30年。

　　新中国成立以来，尽管先后出现了12次洪峰流量大于每秒1万立方米的洪水，黄河却再也没有决过口，创造了岁岁安澜的新纪录。

　　龙羊峡、刘家峡、小浪底……70多年来，我们党带领人民开展了多次大规模堤防建设，兴建了一批重要水利枢纽工程，实现了从被动治理到主动调控并很好利用的重大突破。

　　从1999年8月至今，黄河已连续20年不断流，正以全新的生命形态展现在世人面前，为世界江河治理与保护、人与自然和谐共生提供“中国范例”。

　　白洋淀，曾经以大面积芦苇荡和千亩连片的荷花淀而闻名，近几十年却连续出现干淀现象。2017年，随着雄安新区在此设立，引黄入冀补淀工程试通水，汩汩黄河水跋涉近500公里奔向白洋淀。

　　正是黄河水的引入，使得白洋淀的水流动起来，水质明显好转，重现了天水相连、苇绿荷红、水草丰美、鱼鸟成群的生态胜景。

　　黄河岁岁安澜，这一中华民族的千年梦想，终于在中国共产党的领导下变成了生动现实！

　　正如最高领袖总书记深刻指出的：“实践证明，只有在中国共产党领导下，发挥社会主义制度优势，才能真正实现黄河治理从被动到主动的历史性转变，从根本上改变黄河三年两决口的惨痛状况。”

"Today, China BAT companies can 996, and I think it is a blessing that we have repaired." On April 11th, Ma Yun, Chairman of Alibaba’s Board of Directors, told employees in internal communication. "In this world, every one of us wants success, a better life and respect. I ask you, how can you achieve the success you want if you don’t make efforts and time to surpass others?"

In internal communication, Ma Yun talked about a series of topics such as how young people in Ali grow up, how to realize their ideals, and how to make more contributions to society through public welfare. "Today, we have so many resources, and we have a great mission. I hope that in the future, there will be no difficult business in the world. Can you not pay? No. "

Recently, a news triggered by an Internet programmer made a hot search list-a programmer set up a "996.icu" project in GitHub community, which revealed the phenomenon of "996" working system in some Internet companies, and a large number of "996 workers" poured in and complained.

The following is the original text of Ma Yun’s internal communication:

About 996, it is now a very hot topic in China, and many enterprises have this problem. Personally, I think it is a great blessing to be able to do 996. Many companies and people don’t have a chance to do 996. If you didn’t 996 when you were young, when can you 996? You don’t have 996 in your life, so you think you are very proud? In this world, every one of us wants success, a better life and respect. I would like to ask you, how can you achieve the success you want without making efforts and time to surpass others?

I don’t want to say 996. As of today, I’m sure it’s more than 12×12. There are many 996 people in the world, many people work 12 hours and 13 hours a day, and many people are harder, harder and smarter than us. Not all 996 people have the opportunity to really do something valuable, meaningful and fulfilling.

So today, China BAT and other companies can 996, and I think it’s a blessing that we have repaired. Think about people who don’t have jobs, people whose company may close tomorrow, people who don’t know where the company’s Revenue is next quarter, and people who have made a lot of efforts and whose programs are not used at all … Compared with them, I still feel this way until today. I am lucky. I don’t regret 12×12. I have never changed myself.

Nowadays, many photos show that Ma Yun was standing on the sidelines, but now he is in C position. I have been the president of the student union and the president of the Hangzhou Federation of Students in college. Look at those photos. When I was in that corner, I took everyone out. I was their leader. Why am I the big boss? Because I spend more time than them. Besides taking exams, I spend more time doing student union work than anyone else, to learn how to serve others and how to build relationships among my classmates, so that they can do better in school. Only if you pay a huge price can you get a return one day. If you don’t pay the price, you can’t get a return.

Another, what kind of company is Alibaba? Alibaba’s mission is to "make the world have no hard business". Our company is very hard. We have never lied to you. We have never told you that the company is very comfortable. Do you think that "letting the world have no difficult business" is a fool? We really did it.

Today, we have so many resources, and we have a great mission, hoping that in the future, there will be no difficult business in the world. Can you not pay? You can’t. So we said, to join Ali, you should be prepared for 12 hours a day, otherwise what are you doing in Ali? We don’t lack people who are comfortable to work for 8 hours. Today, we will recruit some people to work for 8 hours, sit in a good office every day, with good conditions, a good canteen and a good sense of honor when going out. Such people can be found all over the street.

But what do we need? We ask you what you really want to do in this company. It is to change yourself, help others and realize your mission.

Ali also worked overtime in his early years, but what classes shall we add? In the extra study class, after 8 hours of work, the main night is to resume and study. What we did wrong today, what should be fixed, and how we should learn from each other. We spend two or three hours outside of eight hours studying and improving, not working overtime.

I hope Ali people love your work. If you don’t love it, even 8 hours is too long. If you love it, 12 hours is not too long.

If you are unhappy at work for eight hours, what you are doing is meaningless and you are uncomfortable. What are you doing? You don’t know what you’re doing for eight hours. It’s meaningless, so even if you don’t call 996, you don’t know what you’re doing.

This is life. You choose a company that ranks first in China today. First, you have to pay a price. There are at least 50 million enterprises in China. You chose this company instead of others. Of course, this is different. I got home at 1 o’clock yesterday. Why? The road I chose, I have no complaints, no complaints, this is my choice. Everyone has come to Ali. Since you have chosen, instead of making yourself miserable, you might as well make your 996 more comfortable. You can work for others for ten years, and that’s all.

After joining Alibaba, what do we bring to others and what is the reward? This is what I’ve been thinking most about for a while.

I don’t think I came to Ali for a high salary, because I have stocks, because we have a good working environment, because of the year-end bonus, and because of these things. These are very important. We are all old and young, and we all have wives and children. We must take care of them. If you can’t take care of your family, give them a good life, a good education and take care of their parents’ health, it’s a wrong life. But what I want to consider most is how we can turn you into a different person when you stay in Ali for ten years.

Changes have taken place within one year, changes have taken place within three years. When you go back, your parents find that this child has changed. Your wife finds out how my husband has become rational, thoughtful and focused on his work. Your child thinks that mom and dad are just different from others. This is the personal growth of Ali people we hope. This growth is not how big the position is, but your view on the problem, your attitude towards difficulties and your attitude towards life.

Everyone who joins Ali will be different after three years, and will be different after five years. Ten years later, Ali people, wherever they go, we are at ease. We are sure to develop this skill, but if you want to develop it in this decade, it will cost you more than ordinary people. Why else would you come here? I also said these things very thoroughly, which is a bit ugly, but that’s the only reason. We don’t fool everyone, oh come on, the conditions are very good, we don’t need to fool now, we didn’t fool before, and we don’t need to fool today at all.

I think so today. Alibaba has done great things. What we do can have real value to the society, so that ordinary people can buy better things and enjoy a better life.

Business is the biggest public good, creating jobs and taxes. Without commercial taxes and economic development, where can we get high-speed rail and highways? We have contributed to the progress of society. We have made everyone in Ali grow up and created countless jobs.

Ali has a blessing. We people have solved our own food and clothing, and we have a good income. Our company doesn’t have to worry too much about profit. We can also do something for others. This is a great blessing.

In fact, public welfare is to help yourself, and charity may be mainly to help others. I am really proud of myself. Many of our Alibaba people today, but many of them are not open to the public. They all do a lot of public welfare. I especially hope that all Ali people will either join countless public welfare organizations within Alibaba Group or join Alibaba’s public welfare foundation.

Many people just want to buy a car and a house for their parents, which is very important, but I think you should have this ideal. After working in Ali for 10 or 15 years, one day you can set up your own public welfare fund and do something you are willing to do, which can help your children to have more blessings and help yourself to have blessings. Isn’t it a good thing? This requires 996.
