Although Chen Duxiu is the earliest teacher, his later years are not perfect, he is a very controversial historical figure, and he is very complicated in his own right. In the TV series of the Awakening Era, you will find that Chen Duxiu is the leader of the new culture, and even *** said that he was the commander of the May Fourth Movement.
Li Dazhao, Lu Xun, Hu Shi and Qian Xuantong were all influenced by him to join the revolutionary ranks, but in the armed struggle, especially when facing the problem of survival, Chen Duxiu fell into a misunderstanding, because he was unwilling to insist on fighting the enemy, and later his leadership was taken away by others, so the subsequent leadership was unsuccessful. Chen Duxiu has contributed a lot to the revolution, and he is basically the same as ***, because on the road of revolution, there are also many relatives who have died because of this, which can be regarded as a loyal martyr.
Chen Duxiu was born in October 1879, a native of Anhui Province, and experienced the most chaotic moment of the country when Chen Duxiu was young, all kinds of humiliating things happened, including the invasion of Beijing by the Eight-Nation Alliance, and the Boxer Rebellion.
At the time of the Xinhai Revolution, Chen Duxiu was already 30 years old, and he became the secretary general of the governor of Anhui at that time, and since then he has started his own revolutionary road. Although Chen Duxiu did not join the League at that time, he created a new youth, which was also vigorously promoting new ideas.
And Chen Duxiu's newspaper and magazine have guided the direction of many young people, ** At that time, Chen Duxiu and Hu Yi were used as examples for themselves to learn from Xi, and he also had a lot of comments on Chen Duxiu. In 1917, Cai Yuanpei hired Chen Duxiu as the dean of liberal arts at Peking University, and then they jointly founded the "Weekly Review" newspaper, which mainly criticized the politics of the time.
In August 1920, the Communist Party organization was established in Shanghai, and this was also done by Chen Duxiu and others. After the end of the First National Congress, Chen Duxiu was no longer engaged in education, he was directly responsible for the work of the party, and he also promoted the first cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party.
During the Great Revolution, with the help of the Soviet Union, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party jointly established the Whampoa Military Academy, which was also a place to train military talents, and the subsequent revolutionary cause was also carried out very smoothly. However, with the revolutionary rebellion in Wuhan, Nanjing and other places, this also made the Great Revolution fail.
However, in the early days of the revolution, Chen Duxiu also made some mistakes, mainly because of the influence of the international environment, the Comintern also wanted to listen to the government, and in addition, in the process of organizational growth, some relatively naïve problems appeared, which made Chen Duxiu make many mistakes in the process of cooperating and fighting with the enemy.
In this gun out of power, ** and *** are more sober than Chen Duxiu, and the Great Revolution is after the defeat. The Comintern was also disappointed in Chen Duxiu, so it transferred him from the leadership post and sent many people to organize and lead our party. In this way, Chen Duxiu has changed from a previous leader to an ordinary person, and has also become a person without party affiliation, which has brought a huge gap in his heart.
It can be said that his old age was not very good, but his patriotic feelings did not change, even if Chiang Kai-shek wanted to fund him, Chen Duxiu refused. Chen Duxiu died in Tianjin in May 1942 with three wives, four children and two daughters, some of whom died as a result of participating in the revolution.
It can be said that Chen Duxiu's children are all running for the revolution, Chen Yannian was killed by the enemy without falling in love and getting married, and he was only 29 years old when he took up justice for the revolution. Although Chen Qiaonian knew that his brother was killed by the enemy, he still insisted on the revolution, and it can be seen from here that he was greatly influenced by his father.
It's just that the work he is engaged in is very dangerous, and the enemy will not let him go, so Chen Qiaonian was killed by the enemy in 1928, when he was only 26 years old, but Chen Qiaonian was already married at that time, and his wife was Shi Jingyi. They had a son who died of illness, and their daughter was placed in foster care and never found. It wasn't until 1994 that Chen Hong learned about his life experience and went to visit Chen Qiaonian. Later, Chen Songnian accepted the care of the organization and repaid the relief money.
