It is 50 years since Mao Zedong introduced the slogan "Learn from Lei Feng", and it has been natural for people to depoliticize what Lei Feng's spirit was supposed to convey as the country has undergone the change from a planned economy to a socialist market economy.

Do we still need to learn from Lei Feng's example? Is there any change in people's understanding of this model good Samaritan?

What we need to realize is that there is a convergence between what Lei Feng's spirit conveys and the code of conduct a citizen is supposed to observe. Just as there is a relationship between the essence of the Lei Feng spirit and what ancient Chinese thinkers said is necessary for a man of moral integrity.
