He was praised by Chairman Mao as "an all-encompassing heavenly book".
Before the founding of our country, we suffered countless unfair treatments. It is precisely because of the hard work of countless revolutionary comrades that we have today's peaceful and prosperous world. In the nearly 30 years of struggle, countless revolutionary comrades lost their lives. There were not many comrades left with New China, and Li Weihan was one of them.
Li Weihan was an early leader of the Communist Party of China . As early as 1922, he joined the Communist Party of China under the introduction of Mao Zedong and other comrades. Before joining the Communist Party, he organized a long-term New People's Society with Chairman Mao and other comrades. Later, he went to France to study abroad and accepted advanced Marxism. After
joined the Communist Party, he actively developed the party organization and established a leadership core. Not only that, he also helped the Kuomintang reorganize and develop the revolutionary united front.
He was the backbone leader of our party at that time and held important positions within the party. After the failure of the Revolution, he formed the "Provisional Standing Committee" with Zhou Enlai, Zhang Guotao and others. participated in and made decisions on the Nanchang Uprising, Autumn Harvest Uprising, etc., and established an army that truly belonged to our party.
He has been present in many great turning points of our party. The famous 87 conference was chaired by him as the chairman of the conference.
In 1931, he was sent to study in Moscow. After returning, he went to the revolutionary base area in northern Shaanxi. As a member of the Party Affairs Committee, he corrected many problems in a timely manner and firmly supported Chairman Mao's leadership in the Party Central Committee , helping the organization turn the corner from crisis to safety many times.
In December 1936, Li Weihan served as Secretary of the Shaanxi-Gansu Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China, Secretary of the Central Mass Work Committee, and Secretary-General of the Central Northwest Working Committee. Documents such as the "Outline on the Issues Concerning the Hui Nationality" were drafted, which became the guiding document for Mongolian work and the establishment of the anti-Japanese national united front.
Later, Li Weihan was transferred to the rear and served as the principal of the Central Party School. He promoted the party's theory, cadre training and other work, cultivated many cadre talents, and continuously transported them to the party. It can be said that half of the party leaders at that time were his students.
After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the relationship between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party was put on the table. Our party is a peace-loving people, so there must be a negotiation with the Kuomintang. As a member of the CCP delegation, Li Weihan has rich theoretical and practical experience, and he is naturally responsible for this work. In April 1946, he participated in this matter under the leadership of Premier Zhou. He actively contacted people from all walks of life and established departments in major cities to communicate with the Kuomintang.
At the end of the year, negotiations failed and the relationship between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party collapsed. The various departments responsible for contacting the Kuomintang were transformed into the United Front Work Department, with Comrade Li Weihan as the minister and fully responsible for this matter. He also lived up to everyone's expectations and trust, and handled the relationship between all parties just right. Both the democratic parties and non-party democrats got along very harmoniously. National liberation is imminent, and the new CPPCC meeting is particularly important. With everyone's expectations, the first plenary session of the new CPPCC was successfully held in Peking on June 15, 1949.
As the secretary-general of the new CPPCC and leader of the first group, the number of representatives to participate in the new CPPCC fell on him. Everyone knows how people are, so Li Weihan is particularly cautious in selecting people. He often works overtime because of this, because he has to consider a quota again and again. Even after selecting a candidate, he will communicate and explain to the invited groups multiple times. Finally, with his unremitting efforts, the final list was finalized. Our country's multi-party cooperation system thus proceeds smoothly.
After the establishment of in New China, governance became the biggest problem. Li Weihan's thoughts have always been advanced and creative. Regarding ethnic issues, Li Weihan expressed his own opinions. He suggested implementing regional ethnic autonomy on the premise of reunification of the motherland. This proposal was approved by the comrades of the Party Central Committee. To ensure full implementation, this system was included in the conference's common program .
This is an important contribution made by Comrade Li Weihan to the political construction of New China.
After the founding of New China, Comrade Li Weihan has been holding important positions. Starting from China's actual national conditions and combining what he has learned, he put forward many theoretical views and policies suitable for the development of our country, and made outstanding contributions to the unification of the party and the country, as well as ethnic and religious aspects.
From Secretary General of Government to Chairman of Ethnic Affairs, from Vice Chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference to Deputy Director of Consultant of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, he has always insisted on implementing the policies and guidelines designated by the Central Committee. He proposed that the united front is to unite all people who can be united and mobilize all positive factors to serve the party. has devoted his life to my country's united front and promoting the development of ethnic affairs .
's contribution to promoting the development of ethnic affairs does not end there. At that time, ethnic minorities seriously lacked cadres who could manage affairs. In view of this situation, he participated in the formulation of the "Trial Plan for Training Ethnic Minority Cadres" and trained many ethnic cadres.
In 1951, he was the plenipotentiary representative of the Central Committee and went to Tibet to negotiate the issue of peaceful liberation. The two sides reached an agreement and shook hands to make peace, making outstanding contributions to the reunification of the motherland. He is deeply involved in ethnic development, handling ethnic affairs, helping ethnic minorities develop economic and cultural development, and improving people's living standards.
In addition, he attaches great importance to religion and advocates uniting people from all walks of life and doing a good job in religious work. Because he is very appropriate in ethnic affairs, he has won the respect and love of many friends outside the party and ethnic minorities.
Xiao He succeeds and Xiao He fails. Because of religious reasons, he was criticized in 1962 and 1964. In 1964, he was removed from all positions and imprisoned in prison. During the ten years of turmoil, he was tortured in prison. Even though his health was not very good, he still did not give up serving the party and the people.
In 1977, the facts were found out and Li Weihan was rehabilitated. Returning to Beijing again, Li Weihan felt very complicated. The first thing he did after taking office was not to tell his painful experience, but to think about why such a mistake occurred, how to avoid such a mistake again, and whether there are other good comrades who have not been rehabilitated. After
thought carefully, he first went to the leader at the time, Comrade Deng Xiaoping, to explain his views. He believes that the reason why such a thing happened has a lot to do with the fact that my country has been closed for a long time and suffered from long-term feudalism. In response to this problem, he made many useful and adoptable suggestions. This view has also been written into the "Resolution on Several Historical Issues in " .
He is open-minded and upright. He is a staunch supporter of the Communist Party, and his sentiments are incomparable to ours. Comrade Li Weihan has worked hard throughout his life, abided by his duties, and tried his best to do everything well. He puts national justice and the interests of the country first, never engages in malpractice for personal gain, and boldly admits his mistakes and has the courage to analyze himself.
In 1983, he was entrusted by the central government to serve as the leader of a five-person team to solve the "Northwestern Historical Problem". He finally successfully and properly solved the problem. This move not only added another glory to his life, but also provided a reference for future generations to deal with such problems.
As a firm believer in communism, Li Weihan has devoted himself to the revolution for more than 60 years. He has always been obligated to respond to the party's requests, and he has also responded positively to the party's calls. In 1979, he actively responded to the call and wrote a revolutionary memoir. Although he is old and may be a little weak in physical strength, he still insists on writing and revising manuscripts every day. In his memoirs, he always insisted on seeking truth from facts, trying to restore the facts as much as possible, and summing up experiences and lessons after each incident. You can tell something from between the lines of his words.
"I have endless worries about collecting salary, and I cherish my ambition in my remaining years."
Li Weihan is a time-tested revolutionary warrior, a qualified politician and educator. He has dedicated his whole life to the revolutionary cause, the party and the people.
He worked diligently and conscientiously, never caring about his status, fame and fortune, and always attributed his achievements to the party, the people, Chairman Mao and the older generation of revolutionaries.
He has devoted himself wholeheartedly and selflessly to the cause of the party, and is worthy of praise and learning.And he deserves to be remembered forever.
pays tribute to the older generation of revolutionaries!
