South Lake in August

Wen Zhongji Post (3949) August Nanhu Lake

Hangzhou has West Lake, Wuhan has East Lake, and Jiaxing has South Lake. Because of the blessings of Bai Letian and Su Zizhan , West Lake is famous all over the world. In East Lake, there are punch-in recommendations from Li Taibai, Meng Xiangyang , Wang Longbiao , and Wang Mojie. Compared to the East and West Lakes, the South Lake in Jiaxing seems to be rarely heard of. In the novel ": The Legend of the Condor Heroes " by Mr. Jin Yong , one of the seven true seven sons of Qiu Chuji and the Jiangnan Seven Monsters fought against the Yanyu Tower, which can also be regarded as winning a place for Nanhu.

But in modern times, on August 3, 1921 to be exact 100 years ago, a great event happened at Jiaxing South Lake . This is because the first National Congress of the Communist Party of China, which was disturbed by secret agents in the concession, was urgently transferred to Nanhu on the last day of the meeting, completed the set agenda on a cruise ship, and declared a political party different from other parties—— The Communist Party of China was formally established. The red boat in South Lake and South Lake, like the small buildings in Shikumen, Wangzhi Road, Shanghai, has also become the anchorage for the Chinese Communist Party to sail.

100 years later, on August 3, 2021, the two envelopes stamped with the Jiaxing Nanhu postmark have become a testimony of a century of hard work. An envelope was sent to me from Nanhu by my teacher in Shanghai, with the 19th "Tackling the Tough" in the centenary stamp of the founding of the party. An envelope is an ordinary postage envelope "Do not forget the original heart and remember the mission" sent to me from Nanhu by Mr. Wang Haiqing from Hangzhou. It is this century of time that has witnessed the development of a spirit, which is the " red boat spirit ".

In the large-scale dance epic " the song of the Chinese revolution " there is a song "The Ship of the South Lake,The song "The Cradle of the Party" extols the founding of the Nanhu Party. With people’s attention to the study of red culture, the spirit of the Red Boat was proposed after the spirit of Jinggangshan, the Spirit of Long March, the Spirit of Yan'an, and the spirit of Xibaipo. "Walking in the Forefront of the Times", for the first time publicly proposed the concept of the "red boat spirit", and summarized and discussed the connotation of the red boat spirit. It believed that "the spirit of pioneering the world, daring to be the first, firm ideals, and persevering spirit of struggle," The dedication spirit of establishing the party for the public and loyal to the people is the source of the Chinese revolution and the deep connotation of the spirit of the Red Boat.

Today's Red Boat has also become the name of Nanhu, and it is also an important revolutionary memorial site in modern China. It is famous for its charming scenery of "smoke blowing, light rain coming". The most representative ones are Yanyulou and Red Boat. The red boat we see today is an imitation in 1959 and is anchored on the water in front of Yanyulou Last, the cruise ship that year was extinct during the War of Resistance. In order to better protect this revolutionary memorial site, the Nanhu Revolution Memorial Hall was specially established. For a hundred years, Nanhu remains the same. The spirit of the red boat has witnessed the great Communist Party of China. Lead the Chinese people from glory to glory.

In August, the South Lake is full of water, and the red boat is swayed in the depths of the lotus. The revolutionary voyage has a direction, and the Chinese giant ship always moves forward.
