Editor's note: The centenary journey is magnificent, and the heart at the beginning of the centenary is enduring. This year marks the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China. People's Daily Online launched a special plan to invite a number of writers and artists to recite red classics, relive the eventful years, feel the glory of a century, and inherit the red gene.

The guest invited in this issue is Zhang Tong, the actor of Li Dazhao in the TV series The Age of Awakening. The content he reads aloud is Youth written by Li Dazhao when he was 27 years old (excerpts).

——The universe is endless, that is, the youth is endless, that is, the self is endless. This spirit is the spirit of life and death, and the spirit of rebirth. This spirit is generous, solemn and stirring, and unparalleled. Only those who truly love youth can know that the universe has endless youth. Only those who really know that the universe has endless youth can possess such spirit and boldness. Only those who have such spirit and boldness can enjoy the endless youth of the universe forever.

——Go ahead without looking behind, turn from darkness to light, advance civilization for the world, create happiness for mankind, and create a youth family, a youth country, a youth nation, a youth human, a youth earth, and a youth universe with the help of youth.

Comrade Li Dazhao is a pioneer of the Chinese Communist movement, a great Marxist, an outstanding proletarian revolutionary, and one of the main founders of the Communist Party of China. In 1913, he traveled to Japan, studied at Waseda University in Tokyo, and began to contact with socialist thought and Marxism. After returning to China in 1916, he took an active part in the New Culture Movement, publicized the spirit of democracy and science, attacked the old ethics and morality, and launched a fierce struggle against the feudal diehards. The determination and passion of him and his comrades in arms to transform the old China strongly stimulated the vigorous vitality and enterprising spirit of the Chinese youth at that time.
