During the special period of ten years, big-character posters became a way of criticism and controversy, leaving deep traces in that special era. Speaking of this, do you know who posted the first big-character poster in the country? This person's name is Nie Yuanzi. He once served as deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Revolutionary Committee and other positions. During that special period, he persecuted many founding fathers. Today we will tell her story.

Nie Yuanzi was born in 1921 and from Hua County, Henan Province. In 1959, he was transferred to Peking University , serving as deputy director of the Department of Economics. In 1964, he was promoted to the Secretary of the Party Branch of the Department of Philosophy. If there was no subsequent ten-year special period, Nie Yuanzi would probably be an educator for the rest of her life, and she might be able to write a few quality papers during the reform and opening up period. However, the beginning of the ten-year special period completely changed Nie Yuanzi's fate and allowed her to appear on the political stage.

1966 On May 25, 1966, Nie Yuanzi and six other teachers from the Department of Philosophy of Peking University: Song Yixiu, Xia Jianxiu, Yang Keming, Zhao Zhengyi, Gao Yunpeng and Li Xingchen , posted a big-character poster in the canteen of Peking University . On June 2, the content of this big-character poster was published in the " People's Daily " with the title "The First Marxist-Leninist Big-character Poster". After that, rebellion emerged across the country. It can be said that Nie Yuanzi's big-character poster pushed the special period of ten years to a climax and had a very serious impact in history.

After posting the first big-character poster in the country, Nie Yuanzi became active. On November 19, 1966, she went to Shanghai to connect with Zhang Chunqiao in Shanghai, planned a series of strategies to seize the leadership of the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee with Zhang Chunqiao, and proposed the strategy of "defeating" Chang Xiping , saying that "defeating" Chang Xiping was a breakthrough in seizing Shanghai command.

At that time, Chang Xiping served as the Minister of Education and Health of the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee. After formulating the strategy of "destroying" Chang Xiping, Nie Yuanzi convened the leaders of various rebels in Shanghai to attend the meeting. For example, Wang Hongwen attended the meeting she held. After that, a series of criminal activities formulated by Nie Yuanzi caused persecution of a large number of cadres of the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee and gradually paralyzed the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee, creating conditions for Wang Hongwen and others to launch the "January Storm".

In addition, Nie Yuanzi also persecuted a large number of founding fathers. For example, she once falsely accused Peng Zhen, vice chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, as a spy. On April 14, 1967, Nie Yuanzi received a handwritten letter from Jiang Qing, asking her to investigate Peng Zhen. After that, Nie Yuanzi joined forces with Xie Fuzhi and others, and Peng Zhen was also framed as a traitor. Nie Yuanzi also framed Peng Zhen for keeping in touch with Chiang Kai-shek , Yan Xishan and others, which caused Peng Zhen to be greatly persecuted.

In addition, Nie Yuanzi also incited the persecution of the founding father Zhu De. In January 1967, under the instructions of Jiang Qing and Qi Benyu, she organized a team to specifically criticize the "Biography of General Zhu De" and falsely accused Zhu De of being a "ambitious man", the "bandit general" on Jinggangshan and the "escapist in Long March ", which greatly persecuted Zhu De's body and mind.

Nie Yuanzi was extremely active during that period, and she also attracted the attention of Jiang Qing and others. After the establishment of the Beijing Municipal Revolutionary Committee, Nie Yuanzi also joined the Municipal Revolutionary Committee and served as the deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Revolutionary Committee, becoming a local senior cadre . However, if you don’t know, unless you don’t do it yourself, the crimes Nie Yuanzi committed will be exposed sooner or later. In early 1971, Nie Yuanzi was quarantined and investigated, and in 1978, Nie Yuanzi was detained and imprisoned.
