Chairman Mao was the main founder of the new China, and the numerous deeds on the revolutionary road prove that the accuracy of his vision is unmatched, and that at many important junctures, his choice was often correct. And those who are favored by him often have great achievements, such as Li Weihan, the early leader of our party.
It is said that Li Weihan and Chairman Mao have a deep relationship, the two of them met in their youth, Li Weihan was still the chairman's disciple, and later Li Weihan took over Chairman Mao's post and became Chairman Mao's superior several times. But after Chairman Mao became the main leader, he has always unswervingly supported the chairman.
From their revolutionary friendship, posterity can see how a group of spirited young people walked out of a road to national salvation in that special era.
In addition, Li Weihan's descendants are also very remarkable, and the eldest son has served as a deputy state-level cadre like him!
Born in 1896 to a family of intellectuals in Changsha, Hunan Province, Li Weihan received a good education since childhood, and his parents had hoped that he would continue to work in education, so in 1916 he was admitted to the Hunan Provincial First Normal School.
However, during his time at the school, Li Weihan came into contact with many new ideas and also got to know mao zedong, Cai Hesen and other people, so he decided to embark on the revolutionary road of saving the country and the people, and gave up a comfortable and stable future.
In 1918, Li Weihan, together with Mao Zedong and others, organized the establishment of the Xinmin Society in Changsha, which absorbed many outstanding talents and laid the foundation for the later party building work in Hunan.
After graduating from the Hunan First Division, Li Weihan went to France to work and study, met many Chinese who were eager to save the country, and from these people, he systematically studied Marxism, and thus began to lay a lifelong faith.
It was also during this period that together with Zhou Enlai, Zhao Shiyan and others, he formed the Young Chinese Communist Party in Europe and was responsible for its organization.
These above-mentioned people have all served as the main leaders of the Communist Party of China, and they can make good friends with them, which shows that Li Weihan is also an extremely capable and ideologically progressive person.
In 1922, after Li Weihan returned to China, he could not wait to throw himself into the revolution, and he officially joined the Communist Party of China through the introduction of Mao Zedong, Cai Hesen, and became one of the first batch of party members.
The following year, Mao Zedong left Changsha to work in Shanghai, and before leaving, he specially recommended Li Weihan to the Central Committee, so Li Weihan succeeded Mao Zedong as the secretary of the Xiang District Executive Committee of the CPC.
Li Weihan did not disappoint the seniors, and during the four years he led Hunan, the revolutionary momentum of Xiang Province grew day by day, becoming one of the provinces with the most frequent workers' and peasants' movements at that time.
However, it was also in those years that the line of the central government was somewhat inconsistent with Mao Zedong's ideas, so Mao Zedong was treated unfairly and returned to Hunan four times to work, that is, Li Weihan became Mao Zedong's superior four times.
When Mao Zedong first returned to Hunan, he deliberately met with Li Weihan, and the title was still the same as in that year, the two first talked about the recent situation of life, and then talked about the revolutionary situation in the whole country, saying that Mao Zedong said: Since we have worked together, we cannot pay for public affairs for private reasons, what should we do, I Mao Zedong made a mistake, you must also deal with me according to discipline.
Li Weihan also said that he would definitely do business in the future, but Mao Zedong's ability was impeccable, so the two did not have any unpleasant troubles at work.
In 1927, the Kuomintang reactionaries launched counter-revolutionary coups in Shanghai, Guangzhou, Wuhan and other places, and many Communists were brutally killed.
Faced with such a bad situation, the CPC Central Committee was reorganized, and Li Weihan, together with Zhang Guotao, Zhou Enlai, Zhang Tailei, and Li Lisan, formed the Provisional Standing Committee of the Politburo of the CPC Central Committee and decided to carry out an armed uprising.
At the famous "Eighty-Seven Conference," Li Weihan served as the chairman of the conference, took the lead in reflecting on the erroneous line of right-leaning, determined the policy of agrarian revolution and armed resistance, and put the Chinese revolution back on track.
Since then, Li Weihan has participated in the important process of the party, but the direction of his work has gradually shifted to propaganda and education.
Through several years of agrarian revolution, Li Weihan truly realized the correctness of Mao Zedong's vision, so at the Zunyi Conference on the Long March Road, he firmly supported the senior.
After arriving in Yan'an, Li Weihan made outstanding contributions to the united front, and he maintained good relations with many democrats, so he was in charge of the first Political Consultative Conference in 1949.
In June 1949, the new CPPCC began to make intensive preparations, and the busiest person was Li Weihan, secretary general of the Standing Committee of the Preparatory Committee.
Due to the particularity of this meeting, everyone on the list of participants must be repeatedly considered, and it is necessary to comprehensively consider factors such as different parties, regions, occupations, etc., and make every effort to be perfect and satisfy all parties.
Li Weihan is the person responsible for formulating the meeting process and the list of participants, in addition, he is also the organizer of the founding ceremony, so many important matters have been entrusted to him, you can imagine how heavy the burden on him is!
Fortunately, Li Weihan's ability is very strong, everything is done in an orderly and unspretentious manner, and after his personal inspection, more than 600 CPPCC deputies were finally identified. When Chairman Mao saw this list, he couldn't help but sigh: This is really an all-encompassing book of heaven!
Later, the successful convocation of the new CPPCC and the perfect display of the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China were all credited to Li Weihan, which is worth remembering for our descendants.
Because of his outstanding work in the united front work, Li Weihan has long served as director of the United Front Work Department of the CPC Central Committee, and has also successively served as secretary general of the CPPCC National Committee, secretary general of the State Council, chairman of the Ethnic Affairs Committee of the Central People's Government, and vice chairman of the CPPCC National Committee.
In 1984, Li Weihan died of illness in Beijing at the age of 88.
Li Weihan's family is also very unusual, he has three wives, and the first wife Cao Wenyu is less and more separated, and later separated because of the inability to communicate between the two places.
His second wife, Jin Weiying, had a son, Li Tieying, who graduated from the Physics Department of Carris University in Czechoslovakia and served as president of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, vice chairman of the National People's Congress, and also a vice-state-level cadre. It is worth mentioning that Jin Weiying had also married Deng Xiaoping before marrying Li Weihan, but was forced to divorce.
Li Tieying's wife is named Qin Xinhua, the daughter of Qin Bangxian, perhaps many people have not heard of Qin Bangxian, but they will certainly know his other name - Bogu, one of the important leaders of the Central Soviet Region.
Li Weihan's third wife, Wu Jingzhi, had a son, Li Tielin, who graduated from Tsinghua University and served as deputy director of the Organization Department, director of the Office of the Central Institutional Establishment Committee, and a senior cadre.
The whole family is a revolutionary elite! Admirable!
