　　This year’s "the first lesson of school" innovation opens the "cloud classroom" mode, allowing primary and secondary school students in many places across the country to have the same class and interact synchronously through real-time connection. Classes were set up in Beijing and Wuhan, with Kang Hui and Nigmat as hosts in Beijing and Sa Beining and Zhu Guangquan as hosts in Wuhan. The location of Wuhan classroom is Hongshan Gymnasium, which used to be Wuchang Fangcang Hospital. There is a student class representative in each classroom in the two places, and they will jointly lead everyone to listen to this special "first lesson".

　　Zhong Nanshan: "Human life is the most important human right!"

　　On August 11th, the Supreme Leader of president signed a presidential decree, awarding 84-year-old Academician Zhong Nanshan the Medal of the Republic in recognition of his outstanding contribution in the fight against the COVID-19 epidemic. In 2020, Zhong Nanshan will tell the story of being born in the war, studying medicine under the influence of his parents, standing up when SARS broke out, and going to Wuhan when the COVID-19 epidemic broke out, combining his personal growth experience and real feelings, so as to inspire the younger generation to love life and dare to take responsibility.

　　"At 10 o’clock on the morning of January 23rd, Wuhan closed the passage from Han. This heroic city experienced a blockade for 76 days and 1814 hours, in exchange for reducing the infection rate in China by at least 700,000 people. This is our country. First of all, grasping human life is the first precious thing. " In the program, Zhong Nanshan hit the floor said quietly: "Human life is the most important human right! We have saved so many lives, which is the performance of our greatest human rights! "

　　Wang Rui, a student from Hubei, paid tribute to Zhong Nanshan through the cloud classroom connection, and determined to become a doctor as responsible as him. Zhong Nanshan also expressed his encouragement and expectation to him in the program. He said that "doctors in China are always good, because the more difficult and difficult it is, the more you can see the true nature of a doctor", hoping that the younger generation represented by Wang Rui can "dare to treat, practice and speak". On August 24th, Wang Rui received the admission notice from peking university health science center, became an alumnus of Zhong Nanshan University, and officially started his own medical career.

　　Among the 42,600 medical workers assisting Hubei in China, "post-80s" and "post-90s" account for about 70%. In the program, party member, the post-90s Peking University National Aid Medical Team, as a young medical representative, shows the inheritance and spiritual continuity of medical ethics between the older generation of medical workers and the younger generation of medical workers. During the anti-epidemic struggle, they reported their growth feelings and work situation to the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader through letters. In his reply, the general secretary affirmed that they "demonstrated the vigorous strength of youth and handed over qualified answers" and praised "the young people in China in the new era are good and worthy of great responsibility!" After listening to their stories, Zhong Nanshan wrote "No one can be left behind" as a message, urging the younger generation to shoulder the heavy burden bravely and stand up when the country needs it.

　　Zhang Dingyu: "We must build a great wall of life for our country!"

　　"Although he is suffering from gradual freezing, his back is quite straight, holding up the hope of thousands of lights!" Chen Qifang, the class representative, introduced him in the program. His name is Zhang Dingyu. He is the winner of the national honorary title of "People’s Hero", the president of Wuhan Jinyintan Hospital, and also a patient with gradual freezing. From the moment the Wuhan epidemic war started, Zhang Dingyu dragged his feet and fought day and night in the front line. Because of this, he is called "Iron Man Dean". His wife, who is also a medical worker, was being treated in isolation in another hospital because she was infected with Covid-19. Zhang Dingyu recalled that on New Year’s Eve, when he was preparing to video with his wife, he suddenly received an urgent notice: "The three medical teams of the People’s Liberation Army and the medical team consisting of 450 people from land, sea and air have been assembled and will take a military plane and arrive in Wuhan in three hours!" At that moment, Zhang Dingyu described his feelings in four words: "The magic soldiers descended from heaven!" He made up his mind in his heart: "I must build a great wall of life for our patients, our city and our country!" "

　　In the first lesson of school, Zhang Dingyu also shared many touching stories that happened during the epidemic, fully demonstrating the United strength of the people of the whole country in the same boat under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee. When talking about the meaning of life, Zhang Dingyu, who is suffering from gradual freezing, said with a strong, optimistic and indomitable attitude: "Life is that we should cherish every moment, every minute and every second." His "one lesson" made Sa Beining, who is also a Wuhan man, choke and hug him tightly.

　　The location of Wuhan classroom used to be Wuchang Fangcang Hospital. It was once the ward where Fu Qiao, a senior three student of Wuhan No.39 Middle School, treated COVID-19, and it was also the classroom where she prepared for the college entrance examination. During the epidemic, primary and secondary school students all over the country stopped studying and stayed at home, showing a good spirit. Fu Qiao, as a representative of them, let people see the positive and optimistic attitude of contemporary young students. In this "classroom where dreams began", Fu Qiao spent an unforgettable fourteen days and nights, received care and help from all directions, met many special teachers, and deeply appreciated the warmth and touch of the people of the whole country helping each other.

　　Chen Wei: "There is no choice but to win!"

　　"Vaccine" is the ultimate weapon to overcome the epidemic and one of the most effective scientific means. At present, the COVID-19 vaccine developed by Academician Chen Wei, director of the Institute of Bioengineering, Academy of Military Medical Sciences, has entered the third phase of international clinical trials, and won the first COVID-19 vaccine patent in China on August 11th. Academician Chen Wei is the winner of the national honorary title of "People’s Hero". In the program, she shared the story and knowledge about the birth of the vaccine, as well as her experience in fighting the virus with the team on the front line. The day when the first batch of vaccines rolled off the production line happened to be Chen Wei’s birthday. After receiving the birthday message from the superior leaders, she replied with eight words: "There is no choice but to win!"

　　Zhang Boli: "Our Chinese nation is a heroic nation, and it grew up in hardships."

　　Academician Zhang Boli, winner of the national honorary title of "People’s Hero" and president of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, told us about the history of the Chinese nation’s struggle against the epidemic for thousands of years. Since Oracle Bone Inscriptions, there have been more than 300 recorded large-scale epidemics in the history of China. Adhering to life and health, the Chinese nation has faced difficulties in repeated hardships and tried to explore ways to deal with the epidemic. As early as Hanshu, it was recorded that "people suffering from diseases and epidemics give up their homes for medicine", and it was put forward that "isolation" was an important measure for epidemic prevention. In this year’s fight against the COVID-19 epidemic, we can use the strategy of Fangcang Hospital constructively to control the epidemic quickly and effectively. It is precisely because of the accumulated experience and continuous scientific exploration of our ancestors in fighting against the epidemic for thousands of years. As Zhang Boli said in the program: "Our Chinese nation is a heroic nation, and it grew up in hardships."

　　Mao Qing: "I don’t think it’s retrograde, I think it’s a charge!" "

　　In the program, the appearance of Mao Qing, director of the infectious diseases department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Military Medical University and an expert in military support for Hubei medical team, made Zhang Dingyu’s face smile. Instead of hugging or shaking hands, the two men smiled and stretched out their arms and elbowed each other — — They used the most commonly used greetings during the fight against the COVID-19 epidemic to express the joy of reunion. When talking about how to look at this anti-epidemic action, Mao Qing said: "This is not retrograde, but a charge!" "Wuhan is where we should go ‘ Battlefield ’ ！” During the whole 84 days in Wuhan, the medical team of China People’s Liberation Army (PLA) aided Hubei Province achieved the predetermined goal of "winning the battle and zero infection".

　　Xie Jun: "Looking up at the starry sky, the big dipper is bright. Down-to-earth, steady and far-reaching. "

　　In the distant space that we can’t see with the naked eye, Beidou, the country’s heavy weapon, is also escorting the "epidemic" action. On July 31st, the Beidou-3 global satellite navigation system was officially opened, which meant that China became the third country in the world to have a global satellite navigation system independently. During the epidemic period, in the construction of Wuhan Huoshen Mountain and Thunder God Mountain hospital, Beidou high-precision positioning equipment rushed to help, ensuring that most of the setting-out survey on the construction site was completed at one time, achieving high-precision positioning and accurate plotting, and showing the world the "Chinese power" that achieved the feat of "building a hospital in ten days". "Looking up at the starry sky, the big dipper is bright. Down-to-earth, steady and far-reaching. " Xie Jun, deputy chief designer of Beidou-3 project and chief designer of Beidou-3 navigation satellite in the Fifth Academy of Aerospace Science and Technology Group, appeared in the class of "The First Lesson of School Opening", telling the important role Beidou played during the epidemic prevention and control in COVID-19 and in daily life, and encouraging students to study for the rise of China.

　　Zhang Wenhong: "Healthy growth is more important than achievement."

　　On August 19th, the 12th "China Physician Award" list was officially announced, and Dr. Zhang Wenhong, Director of Infectious Diseases Department of Huashan Hospital affiliated to Fudan University, was on the list. With frequent golden sentences, he can always popularize epidemic prevention knowledge for the public in easy-to-understand language, which is very popular among netizens. In the class of "The First Lesson of School", Zhang Wenhong presented ten scientific and practical "Children’s Health Treasures" to primary and secondary school students in China with vivid and sensible language and simple and intuitive animation, and emphasized the importance of public health awareness to children from every bit of daily life. Regarding "washing hands", Dr. Zhang Wenhong explicitly stated that "washing hands should last for more than 20 seconds" and humorously explained: "When you sing the song" Happy Birthday to you "twice, it basically reaches the level of 20 seconds." In addition, Zhang Wenhong gave specific suggestions to the children in terms of sleep, diet and exercise. This is also a valuable opening gift given to children by the First Lesson of Opening School. I hope children will realize that health is always the first, just as Zhang Wenhong finally emphasized: "Healthy growth is more important than grades".

　　Wu Zunyou: "Big data provides a very important new technology for us to prevent and control the epidemic in time."

　　Wu Zunyou, the chief epidemiologist of China CDC, will focus on the prevention and control of epidemic situation in Beijing in the class of "The First Class of School". He mentioned that "Uncle Xicheng" played a very important role in the prevention and control of this epidemic. The patient recalled 23 places he had been in 14 days, which provided effective data for the disease control personnel. By collecting environmental samples, they identified the source of the virus as Xinfadi market within 24 hours. At the same time, Wu Zunyou also told the students that the application of health treasure and big data provided us with very important new technologies to prevent and control the epidemic in time, and provided scientific and technological guarantee for safe production and resumption of work.

　　2020 is an unforgettable and special year. Since the outbreak of the epidemic, the Party Central Committee has attached great importance to it. The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader personally deployed and personally commanded, comprehensively strengthened centralized and unified leadership, and emphasized putting people’s life safety and physical health first, which has strengthened confidence, condensed strength and pointed out the direction for the people of China to fight the epidemic. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out that in the national people’s united struggle against the COVID-19 epidemic, the vast number of children also went through a special period. They not only witnessed the great feat of the people of China, but also listened to the call of the party and the government and supported the fight against the epidemic with practical actions, showing the good mental outlook of our children.

　　It is of profound and unique significance that this year’s "The First Lesson of Starting School" sets the theme as "Young people are strong, China is strong". It not only refers to the strength and growth of children in China in the fight against epidemic, but also expresses a bright prospect for joining the future construction of the motherland. The program is closely related to people’s attention, the speaker lineup is powerful, the content is vivid and touching, and every character story and knowledge point has been carefully planned and polished.

　　Let’s look forward to watching the first lesson of school in 2020 and listen to unforgettable anti-epidemic stories together!
