Wang Is beautiful
Born in 1898, Wang Gemei was one of the founders of the Communist Party of China and an early organizer and leader of the Shandong Party organization. In 1919, he participated in the May Fourth Patriotic Movement and was elected as one of the leaders of the Shandong Student Federation. After the establishment of the Marxist Theory Research Association of Peking University in March 1920, it was developed into a foreign port member. In the winter of the same year, together with Deng Enming and others, he initiated the establishment of the Lixin Society and published the semi-monthly magazine "Lixin".
At the beginning of 1921, Chen Duxiu, Li Dazhao, and others unanimously agreed that the conditions for the founding of the Party in China were met, and negotiated to convene a national congress attended by representatives of the early party organizations of the Communist Party in various places at an appropriate time. The early organization of the Jinan Communist Party elected Wang Gemei and Deng Enming to attend. The First National Congress of the Communist Party of China opened on the evening of July 23, 1921. The venue was located at No. 106 Wangzhi Road (now No. 76 Xingye Road) in the French Concession of Shanghai. The founding congress of the Communist Party of China was held in secret under the white terror of reactionary rule. Except for the fact that the congress hall was once harassed by imperialist spies and patrols, it did not attract much attention in society, as if nothing had happened. But at this moment, a new revolutionary flame was ignited on the land of China in the dark night.
On the night of the end of the conference, Wang Gemei, Deng Enming and the delegates returned to Shanghai by train. The founding of the Communist Party of China further strengthened their conviction to fight for communism, and it was at this time that Wang Gemei changed her name from Wang Ruijun to Wang Gemei, taking the meaning of perfection and perfection, for which he specially composed the poem "Zhao ZaiHua - Gifting Friends". "The rich and the poor see the frontier, and do their best to be liberated." The concrete sand is unified into the sea, and Qiao has a foothill to see the vicissitudes. This poem, full of fighting pride, expresses Wang Gemei's dedication and determination to "be perfect" for the liberation of the people.
But unfortunately, Wang Gemei accumulated fatigue and illness in the all-day running for the party's cause, and died young at the age of 27. Wang Zhimei raced against time all the way, struggling until the last moment of his life. When she was plagued by illness, Wang Gemei supported her weak body, lying on the hospital bed and could no longer hold a pen, he ignored the pain of illness and asked the comrades in the party to record his will: "All comrades must work hard and fight to the end for the liberation of the proletariat and all mankind and the complete realization of communism!" "This great revolutionary martyr used his life to interpret his faith and practice his choice.
History flows endlessly, and the spirit is passed on from generation to generation. Through the long scrolls of history mottled by the years, let us relive the glorious years of the founding of the party across time and space, carry forward the glorious traditions, continue the red blood, and let the revolutionary spirit be passed on!
