The "China Youth May 4th Medal" is the highest honor awarded by the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League and the All-China Youth Federation to outstanding young people aged 14 to 40 years old in China (over 14 years old and under 40 years old).

Although my country's comprehensive commendations mainly focus on commending model workers, various other specialized commendations are extremely complex, and the honor system lacks systematic and top-level planning.

But there is no doubt that the May 4th Medal is the 'highest honor' that outstanding young people can receive outside our country's party and government agencies, the military system, and among citizens across the country.

Among non-military honorary commendations, the only honorary titles or awards that are higher than this are awarded by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the State Council, the Central Military Commission, the National Senior Officials Association and other top departments, respectively or jointly.

Such as; Medal of the Republic, National Model Worker, National Advanced Worker, National Outstanding Communist Party Member and Outstanding Party Worker awarded by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China; National Special Honors...

But it is obvious that these honors are unlikely to be obtained by "grassroots front-line workers or scientific and technological personnel" who are not within the system, unless they are engaged in socialist material civilization, political civilization, spiritual civilization construction, science and technology, education, culture, health, sports and other social undertakings and other

It is simply impossible for those who have made significant contributions to this area to obtain it.

All in all, these honors are only qualified for those who have truly dedicated their lives to the cause of communism, from young to old, throwing their heads and blood, even paying their lives for it, and making outstanding contributions to the people of the country.

Selection.

As for the "China Youth May 4th Medal", the relative requirements are not so strict, but they are only relative. It is like flying from the earth to Mars, which has been reduced to flying from the earth to the moon. Ordinary people can't even think about it.

The "May 4th Award" is aimed more at young people who have made special contributions in important national construction fields, key projects, emergencies and major events with widespread social impact.

Or young medical workers, scientific and technological workers, officers and soldiers, police officers and other young representatives from various industries and fields who are on the front line at the grassroots level and have made outstanding contributions, as well as outstanding young commandos and young volunteer representatives. There are also outstanding young people who unfortunately died in the line of duty.

Medical workers, etc.

The purpose of selecting the honorary "China Youth May 4th Medal" is to establish outstanding young models with political progress, noble moral character and outstanding contributions, to reflect the spiritual character and value pursuit of contemporary youth, and to call on the young people to pay tribute to the May 4th Medal winners.

Set an example and learn from it.

Selection conditions;

1.

Chinese citizens aged 14 to 40 years old.

2.

Firmly support the leadership of the Communist Party of China, love the motherland, love the people, and love socialism.

3.

Observe disciplines and laws, have high moral character, and have an upright style.

4.

Received the provincial "Youth May 4th Medal" or other honors above the provincial level.

Since 1997, the selection has been held once a year. As of 2020, 24 sessions have been held, and the 25th session is currently being selected.

And although in principle the award time is to award the medal on Youth Day on May 4th every year, and there are the above five selection conditions, but if you have special contributions, the conditions can be relaxed and awarded at any time.

Like before, a large number of people who made outstanding contributions to the safety of people's lives and the harmony and stability of the country and society in the war against the epidemic were awarded the May Fourth Youth Medal. Many people still sacrificed their lives.

Later awarded posthumously.

When Gao Yun was working in the Youth League Committee, he was responsible for filling in and relaying the candidates for the May 4th Medal for three sessions. A county or city was only allowed to recommend one candidate, so he submitted three candidates for the three sessions.

Even from Gao Yun's critical point of view, these three are all outstanding and outstanding young people. They are either entrepreneurs, creating job opportunities for the local area, and are passionate about charity. Or they work hard at their jobs and serve the people wholeheartedly.

In service, without exception, there are many outstanding deeds, and they even became disabled due to work injuries.

However, none of the three people in these three terms were elected. It was just that after the nominations of the Municipal Youth League Committee were submitted to the Provincial Committee of the Youth League, they were eliminated at the Provincial Committee level and did not continue to be nominated. This is normal, first,

It is common for both provinces to have no winner of the May 4th Medal.

Because our country is so big, we have 34 provincial-level administrative regions, including 23 provinces, 5 autonomous regions, 4 municipalities, and 2 special administrative regions, with a population of more than 1.4 billion.

There are no more than thirty recipients of the "China Youth May Fourth Medal" in each session. The provincial level requires each county and city to apply for one, but the Youth League Central Committee only requires the provincial level to apply for two.

Liao Province has a total of about 60 prefecture-level cities, county-level cities, and counties. Each nomination of one person is more than 60. So many outstanding young people report to the provincial level, and the provincial level selects the two best among them.

Nominated to the League Central Committee...the League Central Committee then selected the thirty best and most representative ones from more than a hundred people. You can imagine their value.

Therefore, Gao Yun was well aware of the difficulty of winning the award and asked in disbelief: "Brother Peng, don't tease me. Is it really the Youth League and Provincial Committee that asked you to nominate and apply?"

Although this does not mean that he can become the recipient of the medal, if the Provincial Committee of the Communist Youth League privately informs and appoints a candidate to apply, it means that the Provincial Committee of the Communist Youth League is very satisfied with this person after careful screening and believes that this person has a higher probability.

He (she) will be selected only after passing the review of the Youth League Central Committee, at least he (she) will not be 'killed' at the provincial level.

Li Dapeng said on the other end of the phone: "I said this carelessly. In fact, I didn't say I would choose you. How can I say this directly? That's what happened..."

It turned out that in early February this year, the red-headed document "Notice of the All-China Youth Federation Secretariat of the General Office of the Communist Youth League Central Committee on Application for Candidates for the 25th "Chinese Youth May 4th Medal"" was issued to the Hu City Youth League Committee. Li Dapeng did not pay much attention to it. According to

The work process was forwarded to various units such as townships, streets, schools, and agencies to submit candidates, and then he selected the best one to report to his superiors.

Li Dapeng didn't think of Gao Yun at all, because in principle, candidates for the May Fourth Medal must work and live locally.

Therefore, this time was no exception. He thought that the matter would just go away like before.

But yesterday, Li Dapeng suddenly received a call from the Provincial Committee of the Communist Youth League.

"It was Director Wang from the Youth League Provincial Committee Office, a division-level leader. He first asked about filling in the 'May 4th Medal'. I was quite puzzled, because you also know that the Youth League Provincial Committee will basically not contact us directly at the county level.

The Youth League Committee asked about the work. The director of the office was at the same level as our mayor. He was asked by the higher-level Youth League and Municipal Committee. What's more, it was for such a trivial matter. I said that the work had been completed after reporting it, and the other person asked immediately.

talk……"

Li Dapeng said carefully: "Secretary Dapeng, I remember Gao Yun is from Hushi?" Then he laughed and said: "I immediately became energetic! Can I not understand what this means? I said immediately, you

Not only are we Hushi people, but also members of our Communist Youth League. We have worked in our Hushi Youth League Committee and won the honor of municipal outstanding league cadres for three consecutive years from 17.18 to 19."

"Director Wang was obviously very surprised, and his tone of voice was quite surprising. He confirmed the authenticity, and then asked how you are normally."

Gao Yun smiled and asked: "Brother Peng, what did you say?"

Li Dapeng said in an official tone: "Then I must have told the truth. You also know who I am. It is impossible for me to tell lies against my conscience."

"Let me just say... Ayun, you are serious and responsible in your daily work, dedicated to your job, enthusiastic and kind, have the courage to take on the responsibilities of the times, have the courage to work hard, develop excellent skills, always practice your moral character, love the party, the country, and the people

. Work hard in the unit without complaint, rush to do the dirty work, and be the first to rush forward when there is danger or hardship. Be full of love in life, be keen on helping others, actively participate in volunteer services, and display the style of a league cadre and party member. Not only in

He is a role model in practical actions, and he also loves learning very much. He has memorized the thoughts and theories of every leader and great man. He ranks among the top in the points of studying to strengthen the country. It is really good, top-notch good..."

Gao Yun laughed while listening: "Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, thank you, Brother Peng!"

"It should be."

Everything went smoothly after that. According to what Li Dapeng said, after receiving such a hint, he immediately asked Director Li if he could change the applicant for the "May 4th Medal". After receiving a very positive answer, he was about to apply for Gao Yun.

Go up.

"But the information form has been submitted, and the advanced deeds have not been finalized. Yesterday, a few of us in the Youth League Committee did nothing. We were just thinking about how to praise you and write you advanced deeds. I am the main writer and will be sent to you later.

Go over there and see where you need to modify it, and report it to the province as soon as possible."

Gao Yun said gratefully: "Don't say anything, Brother Peng, wait until I get back to treat everyone to dinner."

"Then you have to treat me to a meal. If you don't eat, we won't let you go!"

Li Dapeng said: "But, after our report is passed, the province may call you to ask some questions, form a detailed written material for you, and submit it to the Organization Department of the Youth League Central Committee. Then if the League Central Committee feels that you are very important," Li Dapeng said.

Yes, someone will be sent to meet you in person to conduct a strict secondary qualification review on your front or side. If you pass, the members of the "China Youth May 4th Medal" preliminary evaluation committee will select the best candidates from all provinces and cities across the country.

40 preliminary candidates will be selected from the nominations for public announcement, which will last for 5 days."

"Finally, the Secretariat of the Youth League Central Committee selected from these 40 candidates and determined a list of no more than 30 "China Youth May 4th Medal" winners. So, don't have too much hope. This may not be the case now.

."

"Well, let alone winning the award, I would be honored to be nominated."

Gao Yun was elated. He was really happy. Now it was just a nomination. His level of joy was equivalent to the last time he won the DMS fitness championship.

This is the 'China Youth May 4th Medal'. What a great honor. Look at who has won this medal.

Either it is young scientific researchers on the front line who have devoted many years of research and achieved a certain degree of breakthrough in a certain industry or field in the country.

Either he is an athlete who has brought glory to his country many times in the Olympics and won many gold medals. One or two gold medals are not enough. It must be that this athlete has achieved a certain monopoly in the sport. This is undisputed.

Only the king is likely to be selected.

Those who are closer to ordinary people are either young soldiers or grassroots cadres who have devoted their youth to the frontiers of the motherland; or they are medical workers who have risked their own lives and deaths; or they are those who have been rooted in poverty-stricken areas for many years and are not afraid of hardships.

Young volunteer teachers; they are either police officers who have made great contributions, solved countless major cases, and protected the safety of people's lives and property; or they are workers who work hard on the front line of production, solve difficult technical problems, and diligently make outstanding contributions to the industrialization of our country.

We...wait, wait.

Not to mention the Internet celebrity circle, the entire entertainment industry, not even directors, actors or behind-the-scenes staff, regardless of their status, not even one person has won this award.

Gao Yun had never thought that he would have a chance to win this honor in his life. Although he thought the chance was relatively slim, he was pleased that the nomination of the Youth League and Provincial Committee for the "May 4th Medal" already represented the official recognition of him.

recognition.

This is a very rare recognition for what he has done, for the knowledge and things he conveyed in the video, and for the impact he has had on the candidates or contemporary youth.

"Life is full of surprises."

It was mid-April now. Gao Yun hung up the phone and inadvertently looked through the window and saw the unknown trees and plants blooming small pink and white flowers. The delicate petals were bathed in the sunshine and the wind in their graceful shapes.

Swaying but dancing.

"Suddenly, a spring breeze comes overnight, and thousands of pear trees bloom..."
