In 2015, the death of an old man over 100 years old, an old man named Zhang Jinfu, whose body was later buried in BabaoShan for the world's admiration and remembrance. Turning over the revolutionary history of the republic, the name of the old man is prominently listed, he served as the minister of finance before his death, he was outstanding, and he left a heavy footstep in the education and scientific circles.
The old man was born in 1914, and many things happened when he was 1 year old, Yuan Shikai restored the emperor, Mr. Sun launched a vigorous patriotic movement, this year is also the year of people's ideological change, because Chen Duxiu's "Youth Magazine" broke new ground, and people's spiritual realm was raised to a new level. Zhang Jinfu, born in this era, is also an enlightened person with progressive thoughts, although he was born in a small rural area, but the birth environment did not restrict his thinking, Zhang Jinfu showed advanced thinking when he was a teenager, he liked to read, but his family situation did not allow it, so relatives and friends raised money to let him go to school.
In 1930, at the age of 16, Zhang Jinfu went to Nanjing to study at Xiaozhuang College, where his thinking was more open and his concepts were more advanced. Such an advanced-minded person, well aware that the small mountain village is not his permanent residence, he was eager to go to a bigger stage to find the ideal in his heart, so the following year, Zhang Jinfu joined the editorial office of "Life Magazine" and became an editor, he picked up the pen, attacked the old society in the press, and wrote the voice of the new youth, which allowed him to quickly accumulate a wave of popularity in the literary world, and also allowed him to be valued by his superiors, so in 1932, Zhang Jinfu, who was only 18 years old, was promoted to a engineering group as a teacher.
The so-called hero out of the teenager, Zhang Jinfu's ability is obvious to all, colleagues after seeing his small age but ambitions, but also understand that Zhang Jinfu is bound to have an unlimited future in the future. It turned out that the colleagues' premonitions were indeed sharp, and by 1935, Zhang Jinfu, who had just turned 21, had already become an advanced party member.
During the war, Zhang Jinfu gave full play to the unique advantages of the literati and went deep into the rear area to propagate the patriotic idea of saving the dead, and under his efforts, more and more people began to awaken and joined the large contingent of the War of Resistance, vowing to coexist and die with the country. Later, he entered the barracks and participated in countless battles. However, zhang Jinfu still has a literati style in his bones, in other words, he is a literati in the army, he likes to study poetry, and he also likes to write some articles in his spare time, and the famous local chronicle "Feidong County Chronicle" is from Zhang Jinfu's hand.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Zhang Jinfu entered the Academy of Sciences and became Guo Moruo's right and left arm. There, Zhang Jinfu did a big thing, he called on the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Ministry of National Defense to work together to solve national defense and science and technology problems, and under his appeal, the mainland's national defense science and technology development entered a new journey.
Not only that, his series of work to support the cause of national defense science and technology have also won the unanimous respect and praise of scientists such as Zhu Kezhen and Li Siguang. Zhang Jinfu loves science and also advocates science, and he also co-founded the University of Science and Technology of China with other scientists, which has sent many elite backbones to the scientific cause of the mainland.
In 1975, Zhang Jinfu was appointed Minister of Finance, and soon after, he became the secretary of the Anhui Provincial Party Committee. After taking office, Zhang Jinfu boldly tried his best to change the closed situation in Anhui, and took the lead in promoting the implementation of the package production to households in Anhui, and the subsequent result was that as everyone knows, the pilot project of contracting production to households did achieve a historic victory, not only breaking through the previous family contract system, but also broadening the peasants' horizons and driving the agricultural economic level of the entire Anhui region.
During Zhang Jinfu's reign in Anhui, Anhui's economic level has improved significantly with the naked eye. Such a good governor with a world-minded mind and a Confucian demeanor gradually withdrew from politics as he grew older, and died of illness in Beijing in 2015, which also made countless Anhui people remember.
