我与汪冰石老相识已有8年了。第一次见到汪老,是1994年在南京召开的第三次全国老促会会长座谈会开幕式上。汪老以东道主身份主持会议,他风度儒雅,言语简洁平实,亲和力迅速感染了到会的每一个人。从汪老平缓的语调中,我欣喜地听到了熟悉而亲切的乡音。后来有幸与汪老交谈,获悉汪老不仅是我的同乡,还与我毕业于同一中学,当然,我是晚了几十年的后生晚辈了。我向汪老请教办报之道,他没有正面回答,而是娓娓地谈起自己青少年时期寻觅左翼文人办的报刊,渴望获得对自己有益知识的旧事。 I have been acquainted with Wang Bingshi for eight years. The first time I met Wang Lao, I was at the opening ceremony of the 3rd National Association for Promoting Socialist Forum held in Nanjing in 1994. Wang Lao hosted the meeting as host, and he was graceful, concise and plain, and his affinity quickly infected everyone. From the calm tone of Wang Lao, I am pleased to hear the familiar and cordial accent. Later, I was fortunate enough to talk to Wang Lao and learned that Wang Lao was not only my fellow countryman, but also graduated from the same middle school with me. Of course, I was a latecomer who was late for decades. I asked Wang for his newspaper report. Instead of giving a positive answer, he spoke out of his youth looking for newspapers and periodicals run by left-wing writers and longing for the good news of his own.
