In 1953, a woman appeared at the gate of Shanghai and begged the guard at the gate to see the mayor of **.
Seeing that the woman's face was full of tears and she was anxious, the guard immediately reported to her superiors.
Soon, the mayor of ** met with the woman, and after the meeting, the woman did not wait for the mayor of ** to speak, so she anxiously opened her mouth and asked the mayor of **: "Please Mayor Chen hurry up and save my husband's life!" ”
After learning that the Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee was going to shoot the woman's husband, the mayor realized that the situation was very serious, and immediately picked up the ** on the desk and said: "Pick me up from Jiangxi and find Comrade Chen Zhengren, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee." ”
When the mayor was not connected, the mayor comforted the woman a few words, and after connecting, the mayor hurriedly said"Comrade Masato. Hurry up and release it immediately and apologize to others. Comrade Zhengren, this is the case, please! ”
Who is this man to be executed? **Why did the mayor make a special call to Chen Zhengren, secretary of the Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee, for him? What is the relationship between this person and the mayor? The end result?
Shortly before the woman came to seek the help of the mayor, Shanghai held a meeting attended by representatives of the democratic parties, celebrities, and senior intellectuals in Shanghai to conspire to build a new Shanghai.
Before the meeting was about to start, the mayor carefully checked the meeting signature book, and after looking at it, the mayor frowned slightly and asked the staff next to him"What about Mr. Xiao Chunjin? Didn't come? ”
Mr. Xiao Chunjin, who was asked by the mayor of **, is the husband of the woman.
Seeing that the other party shook his head slightly, the mayor raised his voice and said:"He's supposed to come! Hurry up and find out about the situation. ”
After the meeting, Xiao Chunjin's friends hurriedly came to Xiao Chunjin's home to ask his wife Cheng Xiaofu about Xiao Chunjin's whereabouts.
Xiao Chunjin's friend suddenly felt that the situation was not good, and immediately said to Cheng Xiaofu:"If you treat Brother Chunjin as a counter-revolutionary, it would be terrible, Mrs. Sister-in-law, this matter can not be delayed, you might as well hurry up to find the mayor of **, he asked Brother Chunjin about the whereabouts of Brother Chunjin at the meeting, since he values Brother Chunjin so much, he asked him to come forward to save people, right now, only the mayor of ** can save Brother Chunjin! ”
Cheng Xiaofu felt that it was reasonable, and this had the beginning of the scene, after Cheng Xiaofu finished talking about what happened to Xiao Chunjin, the mayor's thoughts couldn't help but drift back to the past.
Xiao Chunjin and the mayor of ** met in Shanghai in the 20s of the 20th century.
At that time, Xiao Chunjin was teaching at Shanghai University, and a group of intellectual youths were deported to China in France.
Xiao Chunjin, who was a teacher at that time, saw it in the newspaper, and was very sympathetic to the plight, so he went to visit him and gave him 100 silver dollars to help him return to Sichuan.
For the ** at that time, Xiao Chunjin was his benefactor.
Half a year later, ** went to Beijing Sino-French University for further study, Xiao Chunjin happened to be in Beijing at that time, and was hired by Cai Yuanpei as a professor and dean of Peking University, and a teacher at Sino-French University, which made them meet again.
Reunited with his benefactor, ** was very excited, during that time, Xiao Chunjin often talked with **, and invited him to bring like-minded revolutionary young people to his home on weekends to make a tooth sacrifice, and gradually their relationship became closer and closer.
Later, Xiao Chunjin also helped ** transfer to Peking University, but at that time** insisted on going back to Sichuan to make a revolution, Xiao Chunjin knew that ** was an ambitious young man, so he did not keep too much, but invited Li Dazhao and others to work together for **.
Since then, although Xiao Chunjin and ** have not seen each other for many years, they have never forgotten each other.
On August 22, 1937, after the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, ** negotiated with Xiong Shihui, chairman of Jiangxi Province on behalf of the CCP guerrillas, at that time, Xiao Chunjin was the director of the Jiangxi Department of Agriculture and was the chief representative of the negotiations.
* After returning to the Wugong Mountain guerrillas, the Kuomintang spies conspired to encircle and annihilate Wugong Mountain, Xiao Chunjin heard the news, and immediately asked his wife Cheng Xiaofu to disguise herself as a peasant woman and rushed to report the news overnight.
In March 1941, after the Southern Anhui Incident, the New Fourth Army was reorganized, and he was in urgent need of military rations at that time.
After Xiao Chunjin learned of the difficulties of the New Fourth Army, he immediately said that he was willing to risk the risk to provide military rations to the New Fourth Army, and after sending ** away, Xiao Chunjin pondered for a long time, and finally he took great risks to personally go to Fuliang, Wuyuan, Dexing and other places to allocate food, and transported Jiujiang and Anqing by water, and smoothly handed over to the New Fourth Army, solving the urgent need.
For this reason, someone once told the truth, but because there was no evidence in the end, the Kuomintang could only remove Xiao Chunjin from his position at that time, which also made Xiao Chunjin excluded from the Kuomintang personnel.
Although Xiao Chunjin served in the Kuomintang for a short time, as time went by, he became more and more dissatisfied with the corruption of the Kuomintang, so he took the initiative to resign as a member of the provincial government, director of the Department of Agriculture, and president of the Academy of Agriculture, and went to Shanghai Chengming College of Literature and Literature and Datong University to teach.
Thinking of his teacher's kindness to himself and his help to the Communist Party and the New Fourth Army, he immediately picked it up and called Chen Zhengren, secretary of the Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee
"Comrade Zhengren, Comrade Xiao Chunjin of your province, is a high-ranking intellectual, always upright and arrogant, who has done a lot of useful work for our party during the period of the democratic revolution, especially for the New Fourth Army, and is now being captured by his hometown as a Kuomintang bureaucrat, and it is said that he will be killed. I suggest that Xiao Chunjin cannot be killed, because he has made great contributions to the revolution, and we cannot forget about the help of others when we win, so please ask the provincial party committee to hurry up and release him immediately, apologize, and escort him to Shanghai. ”During the long years of war, Chen Zhengren formed a style of doing what he said and doing it vigorously, and he did what he needed to do immediately, without hesitation or delay, and it was precisely because of Chen Zhengren's speed in handling affairs and making quick decisions that he saved the life of this high-ranking intellectual, who was kind to the marshal and the party.
After hanging up, Chen Zhengren relied on his understanding and trust in the mayor of **, without saying a word, immediately ** Ji'an Prefectural Committee Zhu Jixian, ordered him to release him immediately, apologize, and appointed a special person from the province to Yongxin to supervise it.
Zhu Jixian after receiving Chen Zhengren's **, did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly called the Yongxing County Party Committee, at that time Xiao Chunjin had been sent to the execution ground, if there was no such pass, the consequences would be unimaginable, so the comrades of the Yongxing County Party Committee said: "It's so dangerous, it's so dangerous, fortunately, the superiors notified it in time, and it's too late." ”
After the notice, Zhu Jixian hurried to Yongxin, personally greeted the released Xiao Chunjin, and set up a banquet to suppress the shock, apologize, and after the comrades of the provincial party committee sent by Chen Zhengren arrived, he apologized to Xiao Chunjin again, and made a special trip to escort Xiao Chunjin back to Shanghai.
After Xiao Chunjin returned to Shanghai, ** personally went to the station to greet him and appease him, and that night, ** mayor hosted a banquet in the hotel to entertain Xiao Chunjin and his wife.
Subsequently, the mayor of Shanghai discussed the issue of Xiao Chunjin's arrangement with the comrades of the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee and the Organization Department, and the final result of the discussion was to let Xiao Chunjin teach at Fudan University as a professor of political economy, and to elect Xiao Chunjin as a member of the Shanghai Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.
Regarding the arrangements made by the mayor and the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee, Xiao Chunjin said that he was very willing to accept it.
Soon after dealing with the matter, ** went to Beijing to report to ***, and after meeting ***, ** released and placed Xiao Chunjin, as well as Xiao Chunjin's help to the Communist Party over the years, and reported to *** one by one.
After listening, he nodded with a smile and said
"You're doing the right thing, you're doing things, and you're kind of discerning. Your 'Jiangxi teacher', it seems that we have a good relationship, and the help to us is not small, he saved you in the past, and aided the New Fourth Army, and now you are benevolent and righteous to save him, it is also right, the Communist Party can not help but talk about human feelings! ”After receiving the commendation, the mayor was completely relieved.
In the years that followed, Xiao Chunjin worked and retired in Shanghai, and in 1968, Xiao Chunjin died at the age of 76.
