Comrade Zhou Enlai is an outstanding model of self revolution and eternal struggle.Comrade Zhou Enlai has long served as an important leading post of the Party and the country, but he has always been modest, modest and prudent, not arrogant and impetuous. His motto for himself is "It is never too old to live, learn, and transform".Comrade Zhou Enlai regarded ideological reform as air, and it was necessary.He often said: "Every member of the Communist Party should have such a recognition from the time he joined the Party: be ready to reform his mind and continue to reform until he is old." "If a Communist thinks that his reform is complete and that he does not need to reform again, he is not a good Communist."

He has been working hard for decades, even in the last period of his life, and worried about the people.He said, I am not afraid of death.The ancients said that people have lived for seventy years, and I am over seventy-seven years old, which can be regarded as a long life.However, in the past 20 years or more, we should always build our country better and improve the people's lives more. Only when we report to Marx can we feel relieved.I always feel guilty and ashamed when I report for duty in this situation.Comrade Zhou Enlai really did his utmost to die.
Comrade Zhou Enlai is an outstanding model of self-discipline, honesty and integrity."The sea embraces all rivers, and if there is capacity, it will be great; if there is no desire, it will be just."

He was the first to do what the Party members and the masses were required to do.At the end of June 1935, when the Red Army arrived at Lianghekou, the Party organization was re elected. Wei Guolu, the guard, was elected as the leader of the Party group where Zhou Enlai belonged.On one occasion, Comrade Zhou Enlai asked Wei Guolu why he had not held a party group meeting for a long time. Wei Guolu replied that the party group meeting had been held, and when he saw that the head was busy, he did not notify him.Comrade Zhou Enlai criticized with a rare serious attitude, saying, How can that work?I am a party member and should lead an organized life.In our Party, everyone is an ordinary member and everyone has to lead an organizational life. This is a question of Party spirit.In January 1958, Comrade Zhou Enlai came to Hangzhou for inspection and took his pillow towel, cotton mattress, bedspread and quilt with him.The quilt was the bed used in Meiyuan New Village during the Liberation War, and it was washed white.The pillow towel was used again and again, but the middle was broken. Comrade Zhou Enlai cut off the broken part and sewed on the two ends again to continue using it.The comrades of the Zhejiang Provincial Security Department couldn't bear it, so they took the opportunity of his going to a meeting to get a new pillow towel from the logistics department and put it on.When Comrade Zhou Enlai came back from the meeting and found a new pillow towel, he said earnestly to the comrades at the Zhejiang Provincial Security Office that our country is not rich, and we should maintain the tradition of hard struggle. Even if we become rich in the future, we should not lose this glorious tradition.Comrade Zhou Enlai said frankly that China, with a population of 6.7 billion, is only a premier. No matter how poor it is, there is no shortage of new clothes. But the problem is not whether there is a shortage of clothes. I do this not only for one person, but also to advocate frugality, not the pursuit of enjoyment, and to encourage everyone to maintain the nature of a hard working Communist.In the 1950s, in response to the call of the Party, Comrade Zhou Enlai took the lead in clearing the graves of several generations of relatives in his hometown of Huai'an and handing over the land sorted out for public use.Comrade Zhou Enlai was strict with his relatives and made "ten family rules" for them. He never used his power to seek personal gains for himself or his relatives and friends.Comrade Zhou Enlai earnestly taught the younger generation that they should deny the feudal kinship relationship, have self-confidence and self-confidence, or rely on relationships to rise up and be pioneers on the road of life.He especially told younger generation not to tell their relationship with him on any occasion, not to carry the signs of the Premier's relatives, not to show off themselves for personal gain.Comrade Zhou Enlai did not leave any personal property behind him, and even his ashes were not allowed to be retained and scattered into the motherland."Great sages should learn from others and be selfless." Comrade Zhou Enlai's noble personality of selflessness in the bottom of his heart and public service throughout his life is a concentrated portrayal of the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation and the outstanding moral character of the Chinese Communists, and will always be admired by future generations.[5]
