我是在粉碎“四人帮”以后才去文汇报的。听报社的一些老同志谈起,文化大革命以前,文汇报在宣传贯彻党的“双百”方针中,既尝到甜头,也吃足苦头。谈谈这方面的甘苦,总结一下经验教训,是有现实意义的。文化大革命以前,文汇报贯彻执行“双百”方针出现过三起三落的现象。一九五六年秋,当“双百”方针一提出,就得到广大理论学术工作者的热烈拥护,学术研究空气相当活跃,报刊上提出和讨论了不少问题。比如三大改造完成后,国内主要矛盾是什么?怎样认识社会主义制度商品生产和价值规律的作用?为什么国产电影片这样少?等等。目前正在讨论的许多重大理论问题和文艺创作中的问题,当时都涉及了。应当说,当时提出讨论这些问题是非常必要的,情况也是健康的。可是,有人却认为“天下大乱,邪正不分”,高喊要“压住阵脚进行斗争”。确实,当时也有极少数人把“双百”方针同资产阶级自由化等同 I did not go to Wen Wei Po after smashing the “gang of four.” Before the Cultural Revolution, some old comrades of the Herald reported that before the Cultural Revolution, the Wen Hui Po both tasted and suffered a great deal in propagandizing and implementing the party’s “double hundred” principle. It is of practical significance to talk about the bitterness in this regard and to sum up the lessons learned. Before the Cultural Revolution, Wen Wei Po implemented the “double hundred” principle and appeared in three ups and downs phenomenon. In the autumn of 1956, as soon as the policy of “double hundreds” was put forward, it was warmly supported by a large number of academic theoreticians. The air for academic research was quite active. Many problems were raised and discussed in the newspapers and periodicals. For example, after the completion of the three major reforms, what are the main domestic contradictions? How to understand the role of the socialist system of commodity production and the law of value? Why are there so few domestic films? Many of the major theoretical issues and literary and artistic creation issues currently under discussion were involved at that time. It should be said that it was very necessary to discuss these issues at that time, and the situation was also healthy. However, some people think that “all over the world chaos, evil is right and wrong,” shouting “to suppress the battle to fight.” Indeed, very few people at the time also equated the “double hundred” principle with the liberalization of the bourgeoisie
