This makes the place even more famous.During that time, there were endless people from all walks of life who came to the commune to visit, inspect, study and interview.
Zhou Enlai and others visited. The people were very excited. Just as the Hongqi People's Commune was booming, on November 26, 1958, a foreign guest came here. He is no one else, but a close friend of the Chinese people and Prime Minister of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea Kim Il-sung. The people who accompanied Prime Minister Jin were Premier Zhou Enlai and Vice Premier He Long.
Zhou Enlai was in Yingcheng
When the news reached the local area, it immediately made the commune's more than 20,000 members very excited. These distinguished guests, especially the beloved Premier Zhou, have never been so close to them. Such an opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
So, in order to welcome these VIPs, not only were there various slogans and colorful flags arranged on both sides of the road and on the square, but early in the morning that day, the people put on their clothes and waited at the scene early, looking forward to their arrival.
Finally, at around 9 am, under the expectation of the public, Prime Minister Kim Il-sung and Premier Zhou Enlai and his party arrived at the Hongqi People's Commune. At this time, there were crowds of people at the scene and the red flags were waving, and cheers were heard.
I saw Kim Il-sung and other North Korean guests smiling and constantly waved to the welcome crowd to thank them; while Zhou Enlai and other Chinese leaders waved to everyone cordially.
After meeting the local leaders of Xiaogan, the leaders of China and North Korea first visited the model of the new residents' village under construction here. Afterwards, they came to Qunyue Tower and listened to the work report of Hu Yinlin, Party Secretary of Hongqi Commune.
After meeting Premier Zhou and Prime Minister Jin, the young Hu Yinlin was both excited and a little nervous. Not only did he speak a little restrainedly when reporting, but even his hand holding the notebook couldn't stop trembling...
This scene was discovered by the careful Zhou Enlai. considerate, he quickly pulled Secretary Hu to his side and sat down, holding his hand and asked, "How old is Xiao Hu this year?"
Hu Yinlin answered truthfully, "33 years old."
"I'm afraid there isn't. It looks like you are full of red face." Premier Zhou said humorously, "Secretary in his 30s is young and promising. Today we will just talk casually and introduce the basic situation of the commune and industrial and agricultural production."
Seeing Premier Zhou so kind and approachable, Hu Yinlin's previous nervousness was quickly wiped out. He gradually entered the state and gave a detailed introduction to the commune's industrial and agricultural production, distribution system, water conservancy construction, social welfare and other aspects.
When it comes to the commune setting up a large iron plant with 1,200 people nearby, which caused a deficit due to lack of resources and other reasons, but could only hold on due to the sentence, Zhou Enlai immediately was very concerned.
Zhou Enlai
The Prime Minister said that this spirit is good, but we must start from reality. If the iron cannot be refined, take the labor back and do other production.
. Regarding the various undertakings organized by the commune, Zhou Enlai emphasized that one must pay attention to diligence and thrift. He said seriously: "Our country is still very poor, the collective economy of the commune is still very weak, and it is impossible to do big things. This time we come, you should try to spend as little as possible to prevent waste."
Therefore, when he learned that the tea tanks and rattan chairs used by the commune to entertain guests were borrowed from the county party committee, Premier Zhou expressed his appreciation for this practice. After the report was concluded, the leaders of China and North Korea attended a grand welcoming ceremony together, hosted by Premier Zhou himself. In his speech, Kim Il-sung highly praised China's achievements in socialist construction and wished the Chinese people greater achievements. After the welcoming ceremony, the leaders of the two countries visited the Seven Star Brigade's scientific experimental fields and also went to the commune's nursing homes, kindergartens, obstetrics and gynecology homes and other places to express condolences.
During the conversation, Zhou Enlai not only affirmed the enthusiasm and enthusiasm of the broad masses of cadres and the masses to build socialism, but also asked them to start from reality in everything and not engage in " one level two adjustments ".
When He Long was the commander of the Red Third Army, he commanded the army to fight against the enemy many times in Yingcheng area and won victory in battles such as Dragon King Ji.Therefore, this time he revisited the old place, and he felt particularly friendly to the mountains and rivers of the city and had extensive conversations with local cadres and masses.
Zhou Enlai and He Long
It is worth mentioning that when everyone came to the obstetrics and gynecology hospital in the commune, Kim Il-sung heard that the obstetrician and gynecologist Li Junming here had participated in the medical team to North Korea that year. So, he shook hands with the female doctor enthusiastically and took a group photo. Not only that, the North Korean government representative also personally put a "Korean-China Friendship Medal" on her chest.
A common meal, showing deep affection,
After several hours of visiting, it was finally time to have lunch. So, the group came to the Shuangxi Canteen of the Seven-Star Brigade.
In fact, the Yingcheng County Party Committee originally prepared a sumptuous meal to entertain these VIPs. However, when Zhou Enlai reviewed the menu, he completely denied it, emphasizing that only four dishes and one soup can be used.
Not only that, according to Premier Zhou’s request, there is no meat in these four dishes and one soup. After everyone's repeated requests, he finally agreed to add a meat dish.
, and finally these five dishes and one soup were released. They include a bowl of bean sprouts, a bowl of spinach, a bowl of fried pork liver with black fungus, a bowl of celery stir-fried meat , a bowl of fish and a bowl of tofu soup , and the main food is noodles and rice. Zhou Enlai also specifically reminded him to give all the other dishes he had prepared to nursing homes, obstetrics and gynecology homes and kindergartens.
After everyone sat in the canteen, Zhou Enlai, who was in good spirits, invited the members to eat first, while the members invited the Prime Minister to eat first. When Premier Zhou saw this attitude, he stood up, brought everyone's bowls, and picked up food for them personally.
What Zhou Enlai picked up for them was all meat dishes. While clamping it, he said to everyone kindly: "You are tired and hard, eat some fish to nourish your body."
Seeing the Prime Minister's actions and listening to the Prime Minister's kind words, everyone at the scene was very moved, and some people couldn't help but shed tears. After Zhou Enlai saw it, he said to everyone earnestly: "I know everyone is excited, and I am even more excited! The people are our parents of food and clothing, and we are the people's servants. As a servant, I can have dinner with my parents of food and clothing today. How can I not be excited!" After
, after picking up the dishes for everyone, Zhou Enlai smiled and said, "Come on, I will eat too, I will eat too." After saying that, he began to pick up the dishes in his bowl. It is clear that the Prime Minister picked up vegetarian dishes such as bean sprouts and spinach...
Zhou Enlai and the members
As the people ate, the atmosphere gradually became warmer. Premier Zhou held his bowl and ate and talked to everyone, and laughter came from time to time on the dining table. When he heard others calling him "Prime Minister", Zhou Enlai said half-jokingly: "I have eaten at a table for a long time, and I'm talking about what the Prime Minister is not the Prime Minister, this is not good."
After Zhou Enlai finished his meal, he smiled at Prime Minister Kim Il-sung at another table and asked, "Does the meal be delicious?" Kim Il-sung also replied happily: " eats delicious, eats delicious, and eats delicious today's meal The most delicious. has comrades who resisted U.S. aggression and aid Korea accompany me, and members of the commune accompany me. I am happy! "
Premier Zhou also responded happily: "Yes, with them to accompany us to eat, my appetite is so great! I ate a bowl of rice and a bowl of noodles, and my belly is so big!"
Zhou Enlai's words immediately caused laughter and joy at the scene.
After lunch, Hongqi Commune arranged fruits and cigarettes for Premier Zhou and others. After seeing this, the Prime Minister asked to send the fruit to the kindergarten and cigarettes to the nursing home. Kim Il-sung instructed the North Korean delegation to give some toys, headscarves and other things produced by North Korea to the commune as gifts.
At 3:30 pm that day, the Chinese and North Korean leaders were preparing to leave Yingcheng and go to their next destination, Wuhan. Before leaving, Premier Zhou once again kindly grabbed Hu Yinlin's hand and said to the young cadre: "Xiao Hu, thank you for your hospitality. You are a cadre, and in the future, you must always keep the members’ warmth and warmth in mind, and you must never forget the masses at any time! "
Seeing that Premier Zhou and others were leaving, the commune members lined up in long queues on both sides of the road to see them off. After Zhou Enlai saw it, he said to Hu Yinlin: "Call them back, it's too strong. "
Even so, everyone still refused to leave. Until the car that Premier Zhou and others took gradually faded away, the local cadres and masses were still standing in the wind, looking very reluctant.
After this visit by the leaders of the Chinese and North Korea, the reputation of Yingcheng Hongqi People's Commune became even more popular and even spread abroad. After that, more than 40 people were sent to visit here, including Italy, Poland , Sri Lanka and other countries, successively sent more than 40 people to visit here.

Not only that, after Kim Il-sung returned to North Korea, he instructed the Hongqi People's Commune to follow suit, thus building the first new countryside in North Korea.
Later, with the changes of the times, the Hongqi People's Commune gradually entered history. Under the spring breeze of reform and opening up, Yingcheng underwent earth-shaking changes. However, the water conservancy project built back then still plays a great role. seems to remind people that that time did not go completely away from .
