Sixty years ago today, September 11, 1965 (August 16, 1965, the Lunar Calendar), the Second National Games in China. Held in Beijing City from September 11 to September 28, 1965. At the opening ceremony, more than 16,000 people performed a large-scale group gymnastics "Revolutionary Hymn". A total of 5014 people participated in the competition, with 22 events. 24 people broke 9 world records 10 times, and 330 people broke 130 national records 469 times. The motherland, which withstood the test of severe natural disasters for three years from 1960 to 1962, is in a period of political stability, economic development, and scientific and technological advancement. The movement to learn from Lei Feng has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The atomic bomb and hydrogen bomb tests have been successful, and good news has been reported frequently on all fronts. The National Games are naturally full of an upward atmosphere. The background of group gymnastics is also related to economic construction. After that, the "Cultural Revolution" began, leaving 10 years of space for the next National Games. Large-scale group gymnastics performed at the opening ceremony of the Second National Games. Extended reading: Review of participating in the Second Games of the People's Republic of China Extended reading: Review of the fact that 47 years have passed since participating in the Second Games of the People's Republic of China in 1965. At that time, the Sports Commission of the People's Republic of China was our beloved Marshal He Long as director, General Li Da as deputy director (in charge of national defense sports) and Rong Gaotang as deputy director (in charge of general sports and mass sports). This year, under the leadership of three proletarian revolutionaries headed by Marshal He Long, Chinese sports are developing unprecedentedly, healthily and vigorously. Mass sports across the country follow the call of the great leader Chairman Mao to "develop sports and strengthen the people's physique." Prosperous, at the beginning of this year, provinces across the country were also making intensive preparations to form sports delegations to participate in the Second Games of the People's Republic of China held in Beijing. Taking photos in front of Tiananmen Square for participating in the Second Games (It is rare that the statue of the chairman was not hung on the gate of Tiananmen Square.) I was in my youth of twenty years old. I had the honor to become a radio aviation model athlete of the Guizhou Sports Delegation, representing the 17 million people of Guizhou at that time to participate in the event held in Beijing. At the largest sports event since the founding of the People's Republic of China, our Guizhou Radio Aviation Model Team delivered a satisfactory answer to the Guizhou people with excellent results at the Second Games. The whole team invested unprecedented hard training at Qingzhen Airport in Guiyang. At that time, our sports in China were indeed not for fame or profit, but only wanted to win glory for the country and the people. The conference was held in Beijing immediately. Our model aircraft cannot be directly sent to Beijing like equipment for other sports. Since our model aircraft are all made of non-metallic materials, sudden changes in altitude, temperature, and humidity will cause the aircraft to deform. Therefore, our team first went to Hengyang Jiangdong Airport in Hunan Province for adjustment training in early July, then went to Guozhuang Airport in Jinan, Shandong Province in early August, and finally went to Beijing Liangxiang Airport in early September. They made several transfers along the way and went through hardships. First cover of commemorative stamps for the Second Games of the People's Republic of China September 11, 1965 is an unforgettable day in my life. At 3 p.m. at the Capital Workers 'Stadium, our Guizhou delegation and the sports delegations of other 28 provinces, cities and autonomous regions across the country lined up in neat steps and accepted the review of the party and state leaders with the sound of "Athletes March".

The entrance ceremony of the thirty sports delegations to the Second Games of the People's Republic of China After the entrance ceremony of each delegation was over, I, the representative of Guizhou, sat on the 21st platform on the left side of the rostrum. This was the first time in my life that I saw the great leader Chairman Mao and many other party and state leaders up close. I remember that I was so excited that tears filled my eyes. I could see the chairman's every move clearly. Sitting on the right of the chairman were Vice Chairman Liu Shaoqi, Premier Zhou Enlai, Zhu De, Deng Xiaoping, Dong Biwu, etc. Sitting on the left were Prince Sihanouk and his wife. At the opening ceremony, the chairman did not say a word to the audience. There was no microphone in front of him at all, only a blue and white tea cup, a white porcelain ashtray, a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes and a box of 20 big matches. The chairman just waved frequently amid the cheers of Long Live Chairman Mao. During this period, I saw the Chairman talking from time to time with Vice Chairman Liu Shaoqi sitting on the right and Prince Sihanouk sitting on the left. Prince Sihanouk also frequently folded his hands to thank the Chairman! Prince Sihanouk's two princes had been standing behind him to watch the grand occasion.
