There is a special category in the historical and cultural heritage of the Chinese nation - revolutionary cultural relics. It includes both the ruins related to the revolutionary struggle, the former site of the revolutionary conference, and the revolutionary memorial facilities, such as the Zunyi Conference site , the tomb of the 72 Martyrs of Huanghuagang, the Monument to the People's Heroes, etc., as well as the small carts of the Huaihai Battle and the "half quilt". Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has made many special trips to revolutionary holy places, red sites, and revolutionary historical memorial sites to pay holy tribute to revolutionary relics and commemorate revolutionary martyrs, and made a series of important instructions on the protection, utilization and inheritance of revolutionary relics. Cultural relics are speechless, but the revolutionary history and great spirit they carry are revitalized in the new era.
In the History Exhibition Hall of the Communist Party of China, there is a special cultural relic - the gallows. This was the first revolutionary cultural relic taken over by the cultural relics department after the founding of New China, number 0001. In the spring of 1927, Li Dazhao, who was arrested and tortured, refused to surrender. In the end, he was executed generously on this gallows.
The cold gallows witness the awakening era when revolutionary pioneers shed their blood.
Time flies, on the land of China, there are old sites, physical objects, memorial halls... All kinds of revolutionary cultural relics have always told the glorious history of the heroic struggle of the Party and the people in their own way.
Peng Yuehui, deputy director of the Revolutionary Cultural Relics Department of the State Administration of Cultural Relics: Revolutionary cultural relics come from history. As witnesses to China's revolution, construction and reform, revolutionary cultural relics can help us review the difficult journey of the road to rejuvenation. These old sites, venues, and real objects are silently recreating the real history that has happened. The sense of reality, experience and shock brought by immersiveness cannot be replaced by text description and artistic expression.
From the First Congress of the Party, Nanhu Red Boat , to Jinggangshan , Yan'an , Xibaipo , Xibaipo , Peking University Red Building , Jiangxi Yudu Central Red Army Long March , to the Martyrs Cemetery, Hubei, Henan and Anhui Soviet Area Capital Martyrs Cemetery, Huaihai Battle Memorial Hall ... Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping’s red footprints have spread all over the country. The General Secretary demanded that revolutionary cultural relics be protected, managed and used well. It is also emphasized that red resources are precious and non-renewable and irreplaceable resources, and protection is the top priority.
At the former site of the Red Army headquarters in Yudu, Jiangxi, staff were taking students to print slogans. Yudu is the starting point for the gathering of the Central Red Army Long March. More than 80 years ago, more than 80,000 Red Army soldiers set out from the ferry here and embarked on the 25,000-mile Long March. In 1931, after the third anti-"encirclement and suppression" of ended, the Second Division of the Third Army of the Red Army was ordered to carry out revolutionary activities in the area of Hefeng and establish the red regime of . At that time, the Red Army left a large number of slogans and comics in the house.
Yudu Central Red Army gathered and set off for the Long March 1 Historical Museum Cultural Relics Storage Section Chief Xie Chengying: These Red Army slogans were the most direct and effective publicity methods in the Central Soviet Area at that time. It left valuable first-hand information for our later research on the history of the Third Legion and the history of the Central Soviet Area.
However, a few years ago, this house, which had long been converted into a residential house, was almost demolished during the renovation of the local adobe room.
Liu Nanjing, a villager in Mayan Village, Yudu County, Ganzhou City, Jiangxi Province: I was born here and have seen many slogans since I became sensible. I didn't know much about it at that time and didn't understand the value. When the adobe house renovation was carried out in 2016, I would report it to the village committee. When it was found that it was valuable, the village committee reported it to the museum and then it was protected.
In order to protect these non-renewable red resources, the local government allocated special funds to repair the former site of the regiment headquarters and the other two revolutionary sites found around it.
In May 2019, General Secretary Xi Jinping came to Yudu during his inspection tour in Jiangxi, and deeply remembered the glorious years of the Party Central Committee and the Central Red Army fighting bloody battles in the Soviet area, and emphasized that we must remember where the red regime came from and how the new China was established.
Yudu Central Red Army gathered and set off for the Long March of the History Museum Xie Yunhua: We keep in mind General Secretary Xi Jinping’s earnest instructions, further strengthen the census of revolutionary relics and sites in the county, and increase the efforts to repair them. In the past three years, we have repaired more than 60 revolutionary cultural relics, and at the same time we have rectified the surrounding environment, improved the infrastructure, and built it into a vivid classroom for red training and education.
Starting from January 1 this year, the " Jiangxi Province Revolutionary Cultural Relics Protection Regulations " was officially implemented, and the protection of revolutionary cultural relics has more complete legal guarantees. From a national perspective, we have implemented General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important instructions on revolutionary cultural relics work, and the top-level design of revolutionary cultural relics work in my country has been continuously improved, and the family of revolutionary cultural relics resources has been basically understood. There are more than 36,000 unmovable revolutionary cultural relics in the country, and more than 1 million pieces/set of state-owned collections of movable revolutionary cultural relics are maintained. The protection situation continues to improve.
Deputy Director of the Second Research Department of the Party History and Literature Research Institute of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and First-level Inspector Fei Honghuan : These cultural relics protection projects will make the history of text memory vividly present in front of people, forming an image understanding among people, and affecting our bloodlines, and therefore play a great role in the play of educational functions. The protection of revolutionary cultural relics helps to promote revolutionary culture, and also forms the basis for the inheritance and development of red culture.
Revolutionary cultural relics witness the revolutionary history. Protecting well is the foundation, and at the same time, it is also a vivid teaching material for ideals and beliefs. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that strengthening the protection and utilization of revolutionary cultural relics, promoting revolutionary culture, and inheriting the red gene is the common responsibility of the whole Party and society.
In , Zunyi No. 1 Middle School, teacher Liu Nana is giving students a special red story English class. The video played in class was taken by her specially went to to Zunyi Conference Memorial Hall a few days ago.
Zunyi Conference is an important meeting with great turning point in the history of our party. In order to tell the red story well, Zunyi No. 1 Middle School organized a special teaching and research activity, compiled a reading book called "Inheriting the Red Gene and Telling the Zunyi Story well", and promoted the red cultural education into textbooks and classrooms.
How to better tell red stories and promote revolutionary culture? In recent years, Sidu Chishui Memorial Hall , located in Xishui County, Guizhou Province, has also been constantly innovating. Recently, they are recording the fifth Red Story Club.
Deputy Director of the Sidu Chishui Memorial Hall: We have held four episodes of the Red Story Meeting before. At that time, we mainly conducted it through offline and online live broadcasts, but there is a problem, that is, there is no way for everyone to play it back, so in the fifth episode of the Red Story Meeting, we hope to innovate some forms through short videos and VR to spread the red story more widely.
In addition to shooting cultural relics in the museum, the staff have also dig deep into the stories behind some cultural relics and added outdoor shooting.
Peng Yuehui, deputy director of the Revolutionary Cultural Relics Department of the State Administration of Cultural Heritage: The former revolutionary site and venue are places where the people pay homage to martyrs and respect heroes, and are places where party members and cadres understand their original aspirations and missions. Innovative practices in various places are conducive to the display, remembering and inheriting of cultural relics, stories, heroes and spirits that are easily forgotten, which also fully demonstrates the contemporary value and vigorous vitality of revolutionary cultural relics.
While protecting revolutionary cultural relics and promoting revolutionary culture, General Secretary Xi Jinping has always been concerned about the development of old revolutionary areas and the lives of people in old revolutionary areas. He pointed out that the people in the old district have made significant sacrifices and contributions to the cause of the Party and the people. We must build the old district well and take good care of the descendants of the heroes so that they can live a happier life.
On this day, 6 teams made an appointment to visit Gouba Village in Bozhou District, Zunyi City, Guizhou.Early in the morning, the tour guide Luo Yue became busy. In March 1935, a very important meeting of the Red Army during the Long March - Gouba Conference was held here. There was a big controversy at the meeting at that time, should we attack the new stage of Dagu? Mao Zedong was the only one who opposed it.
Yang Shengguo, former director of the Party History Research Office of the Bozhou District Committee of Zunyi City, Guizhou: At night, Mao Zedong couldn't sleep and felt that it was important, so he carried a lantern along the path to the place where Zhou Enlai lived to find Zhou Enlai. Finally, he convinced Zhou En and canceled the military decision to attack the new stage of the Gu.
This decision allowed the Red Army to avoid the "pocket array" set up by the enemy in time and save the Red Army at a critical moment. This period of history also left a deep red mark on Gouba Village.
In June 2015, when General Secretary Xi Jinping visited Guizhou, he had visited Huamao Village, which was close to Gouba Village. The General Secretary’s words touched the local cadres.
Yang Guihua, deputy director of the Management Committee of Gouba Red Cultural Tourism Innovation Zone, Zunyi, Guizhou: General Secretary Xi Jinping said that whether the Party Central Committee’s policies are good depends on whether the villagers cry or laugh. In order to make the people richer and smile brighter, at the end of 2015, we established the Zunyi Gouba Red Cultural Tourism Innovation Zone Management Committee to carry out special work.
Today’s Gouba Village combines functions such as in-depth red tourism experience, education and training for party members and cadres. In the past five years, the number of tourists received has exceeded 1.5 million each year, and the comprehensive tourism revenue has exceeded 20 million yuan. Seeing the earth-shaking changes in his hometown, Wang Shuquan, who was working outside, went home to open a farmhouse, and his annual net profit was more than 100,000 yuan.
Keeping in mind the instructions of the General Secretary, in recent years, various places have actively promoted the deep integration of the protection and utilization of revolutionary cultural relics with red tourism and rural revitalization. In 2019 alone, the number of red tourists nationwide exceeded 1.4 billion, and the revenue of red tourism exceeded 400 billion yuan. In the past two years, the popularity of red tourism has continued to rise, becoming an important driving force for promoting the social and economic development of old revolutionary areas.
One revolutionary cultural relics are soaked in the history of blood and fire, and outline the glorious years of that year. Through these cultural relics, we can still feel the revolutionary spirit of thousands of Communists who sacrifice their lives and shed their blood for their ideals and beliefs in the course of a century of struggle. On the new journey, facing new risks and challenges, we must still draw strength from the Party’s century-old struggle and let the red gene be passed down from generation to generation.
