In 1992, Chairman Mao’s daughter, Li Na, received the task assigned by the above and went to the Three Gorges to inspect work. At that time, Liu Yuan, political commissar of the hydropower command of the armed police, received this notice and was ecstatic to wait for Li Na’s arrival at the Xiling Yangtze River bridge.

Their relationship is like a brother and sister. Liu Yuan’s identity is not ordinary. His father, Liu Shaoqi, the founding father, and they only met because of their parents’ relationship. After a long time, they have established a deep friendship.

When he saw Li Na, Liu Yuan greeted her cordially: “I was so happy that I couldn’t sleep when I got the news that you were coming, so I was looking forward to your early arrival”

Li Na also responded happily: “I choose to come here to study, and a large part of the reason is because of you. You work here so that I can take time to see you and chat with you when I am after studying. I didn’t expect you to become a general so soon. You are really an outstanding talent.”

After Li Na finished, she introduced Liu Yuan to her colleagues who went with her, which made Liu Yuan a little shy. Liu Yuan responded to Li Na’s praise “Sister, you are the same as before, still so dignified and elegant.”

The two chatted for a while, and Liu Yuan led Li Na to the Yangtze bridge. He sighed and said: “Sister, this is the dam built by my comrades here. When it’s completely completed, we will write Uncle Mao’s poem on the dam: “The high gorge comes out of plain lake, which is amazing the world" (高峡出平湖,当惊世界殊)how significant!”

Li Na agreed. First, she agreed with Liu Yuan’s proposal. Second, she expressed satisfaction with the Three Gorges Dam Project.

Liu Yuan’s identitybackground is not ordinary.

His father, Liu Shaoqi, was the founding father, and they only met because of of the plant, which allowed Liu Yuan and Li Na to meet through their parents’ relationship.

I don't know how to correct this, because I'm not sure if you are talking about 3 people or 2. Is his father the same person as the founding father? or are you still talking about Liu Yuan and Li Na.

After a long time, they have established a deep friendship.

When the saw Li Nay first met, Liu Yuan greeted herLi Na cordially: and said “I was so happy that you were coming that I couldn't sleep when I got the news that you were coming, soeven sleep, and furthermore, I was looking forward to your early arrival”

Li Na also responded happily: “I choose to come here to study, andbut a large part of the reason is because of you.

I deleted "also", because you used "cordially" in your last sentence, which does not mean the same as "happily", therefore, using also does not work.

YSince you work here so that I can take tim, I will be able to see you and chat with you when I am after my studyingies.

I didn’t expect you to become a general so soon.

You are really an outstanding talent.”

After Li Na finishedwards, she introduced Liu Yuan to her colleagues who wentre there with her, which. This made Liu Yuan a little shy.

Do you mean after Li Na finished saying those nice things, or do you mean after she finished her studies?

He sighed and saidexplained to Li Na: “Sister, this is the damdam is being built by my comrades here.

why would he sigh? People sigh out of anger, frustration, or sadness. Does Liu Yuan have these feelings?

When it’s completely completed, we will writcarve Uncle Mao’s poem on the dam:, “The high gorge comarises out of plainthe lake, which isits beauty and significance amazinge the world" (高峡出平湖,当惊世界殊)how significant!

It is difficult to translate poetry. your translation was not grammatically wrong, but we don't say plain lake. That doesn't really make sense in English. Also, if you want to use the word amazing as a verb, it is "to amaze".

Li Na agreed. with the idea and expressed great satisfaction with the progress on the dam.

I was talking about Liu Yuan and Li Na, but this topic related to their fathers and the fathers were both founding fathers of our country.

I originally wanted to say 他感叹道:but I don’t know how to say 感叹in English, then I looked at 感叹in a translation app, and the app told me that it was “sign”

No, they are just colleagues. Li Na’s father is Mao Zedong, and Liu Yuan’s father is Liu Shaoqi. Mao Zedong and Liu Shaoqi are both the founders of the people’s republic of China. There is a story that is difficult to tell between them. You can look at the story on the internet.

Okay. My mom is not a fan of Mao Zedong, since my father was shot down by a Communist Chinese pilot, but she is proud of China and does not blame the current government. Those were tough times. I thought Chiang Kai Shek was an opportunist, and loved power more than his country, but when we were growing up in Taiwan, we were brain-washed that he was our hero. If you want, we can chat about this Li Na's story privately. It sounds interesting.

Standing on the top of history to see the fight between the communist party and the nationalist party, which is a civil war. War brings pain and splits our country and our people. It caused huge pains to many Chinese families, and you are one of them. The two were saying that they worked for their country and people, but I think they are for themselves, because what they really like is power and position. Not only the two, politicians all over the world both in this way. I don't know who is the right one. Maybe there is no correct or incorrect, they are just dust in history. I know a little about Li Na, divorced two or three times, who is stubborn in character, the daughter of Mao Zedong and Jiang Qing. Besides, I don't know the rest.

Li Na agreed.
