Xinhuanet Tianjin, February 9 (Reporter Guo Fangda) The Lunar New Year is approaching, and Zhonghetou Village, Shuangkou Town, Beichen District, Tianjin is full of joy: the dance team stepped up rehearsals for the New Year in the square; The villagers took the purchased New Year's goods and stuffed the refrigerator to the brim; Several cultural and tourism projects in the village are about to be completed, and red and gorgeous Spring Festival couplets are also pasted at the door.
As the birthplace of the Northwest Township Farmers' Branch of the Communist Party of China, the first rural party branch in Tianjin, Zhonghetou Village has focused on rural revitalization in recent years, fully integrating local cultural and tourism resources and green industries to create a number of cultural tourism projects with local characteristics. As a result, the village has made great strides on the road of rural revitalization.
Cultural and tourism resources are used
Walking into the village, you can see the painted cultural alleys, and next to the road is the newly completed cultural square, although the winter temperature is not high, but the villagers' enthusiasm for the New Year is very high. The villagers spontaneously posted couplets and hung lanterns, and the red decoration made the atmosphere in the village also hot.
The hometown of martyr An Xingsheng, the birthplace of Tianjin's first rural party branch, the pilot village of the Red Beautiful Village of the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee, and the ...... of the first batch of red tourist attractions in TianjinZhonghetou Village has always been famous.
The Zhonghetou Village Party and Mass Service Center is a small gray brick and gray tile courtyard, and the office of the first secretary Cheng Xiangbo is in a small bungalow in the corner.
The cottage is simply furnished, with a kettle, a small stove, an office computer, and stacks of documents piled high next to the small bed. "The project needs to be stepped up, everything is piled up here. This grassroots cadre, who was born in 1986, has been stationed in the village for two years.

When I first joined the work, I didn't expect the village's characteristic cultural and tourism resources to be so rich. "But in the past, the extent of resource exploration was insufficient, and the driving effect on the villagers was limited." ”
How to make good use of the special advantages, make the villagers' money bags bulge, and play the Zhonghetou brand has become a common issue for village cadres and everyone. Nearly 30 million yuan of related support funds, such as the lottery public welfare fund and the pilot construction fund of the red beautiful village of the Organization Department, have made everyone have an eyebrow.
The Cultural Industry Park is our most important project. Cheng Xiangbo led the reporter into the industrial park, and the newly renovated lecture hall looked bright.
Relying on the profound and unique characteristic cultural and tourism resources of Zhonghetou, the project is committed to building an industrial center integrating education and training, research and tourism, cultural and creative leisure, catering and reception, etc., with the construction of the Beichen Revolutionary Struggle History Museum as the main line. "This is another new educational coordinate in the village, in addition to the former residence of martyr An Xingsheng and the former site of Tianjin's first rural party branch, the 'Northwest Township Peasant Branch of the Communist Party of China'. Cheng Xiangbo introduced.
In recent years, through the integration of cultural tourism resources and focusing on influential tourism brands, Zhonghetou Village has created a number of characteristic cultural tourism projects. "Judging from the effect of the trial, the prospects for characteristic cultural tourism are broad. Cheng Xiangbo said.
Up to now, 8 projects, including the training base for primary and secondary schools planned and built in Zhonghetou Village, the restoration of the old site of Tianjin's first rural party branch, and the demonstration base for agricultural fun and leisure experience, have been basically completed or put into use.
Green industries are emerging
How easy is it to work at the grassroots level? Cheng Xiangbo's emotion shows that it is not easy to get rich.
In the past, walking after the rain, a foot of cow dung and a foot of mud, several trunk roads in the village were not hardened, and there was a lack of lighting, coupled with the free grazing of the surrounding villagers, which made it extremely inconvenient for pedestrians in the village to open to traffic.
If you want the industry to prosper, you have to solve the problem of the road first. Some villagers are worried about the damage to their personal interests after the renovation, and some villagers are worried that the project will involve their own houses, and the work is not going smoothly.
Cheng Xiangbo said that at that time, he had just arrived at the grassroots level, and "when he saw the villagers, he couldn't open his mouth." Thinking of himself at that time, Cheng Xiangbo grinned.
Things can't be delayed, and rural revitalization work can't be ambiguous. With the help of other village cadres, Cheng Xiangbo went door-to-door to do work, arriving earlier in the morning than anyone else and sleeping in the office when it was late. He also gradually changed from "Xiao Cheng" in the mouth of the villagers to "Secretary Cheng" recognized by everyone. With trust, many problems are solved.

There are no professional planning talents in the project promotion village, and most of the team members do not understand the knowledge of bidding and engineering construction. Cheng Xiangbo and the team members are determined to gnaw the "hard bones" together.
Repeatedly discuss the plan with the higher departments, stay up late to make up for relevant knowledge, and ask for advice and ...... from other advanced villagesWith the "stunned" of "how can we not do it", the village planned to build a 10-million-level industrial park project for the first time.
Take a look at the specialties of our village. Cheng Xiangbo proudly picked up a small pot of succulents on the table and introduced it. In recent years, the village has integrated land resources, successfully transferred a number of idle land, and opened up succulent planting bases, special vegetable planting bases and other planting and breeding projects, with a large number of farmers in the village participating.
How are they selling this year? Cheng Xiangbo led the reporter into the greenhouse of succulent grower Fan Kexin.
Make a little 200,000. Leaning out of the dense succulents in the greenhouse, Fan Kexin told reporters with a smile that the village cadres helped build a live broadcast room to open up sales, and their succulents were sold all over the country.
Development synergy comes together
Shuangkou Town is a large agricultural town in Beichen District, with a good foundation for the construction of rural revitalization demonstration area and advantageous resource endowment. In order to achieve the practical effect of rural revitalization, Zhonghetou Village and the other five villages in Shuangkou Town have formed a fist.
In May 2022, with the support of the ** Special Lottery Community Chest, the "Red Hetou, Green Shuangkou" construction project was officially launched. The total planned investment is about 1200 million yuan, a total of 19 sub-projects, involving the Hetou area with Zhonghetou Village as the core, and the Xiaowubao area composed of 6 villages, including Xubao Village, Haobao Village, Qianbao Village, Houbao Village and Zhaoquan Village, covering an area of about 7181 hectare. The construction content of the project involves rural tourism, characteristic planting and breeding, agricultural infrastructure construction and human settlements improvement.
The industry does not have one point, it has to be connected. Cheng Xiangbo said. The Hetou area has scarce characteristic cultural and tourism resources for the development of education and training and other related industries, and the "Xiaowubao" area has beautiful rural resources such as economic forests, dragon fruit planting, ostrich breeding, and understory resources, and has the basic conditions for the development of rural tourism and labor practice.

In the dual-carbon science education base in Houbao Village, various forms such as crystal sand table, smart interactive large screen, laser projection, and ARVR show visitors China's experience and practices in practicing green development. In the leisure homestay base of Xiaowubao Village, the folk characteristic homestay invested in the construction has already launched a brand in the surrounding area. The pear orchard demonstration base in Haobao Village has not only driven the surrounding pear farmers to participate in increasing income, but also become a check-in place for tourists who come to visit during holidays.
Through resource complementarity, industrial interconnection and group development, the two areas can provide important cultural, industrial and resource support for the future industrial integration and development, and effectively give full play to the regional agglomeration effect. Different villages find their own positioning, forming a good situation of staggered development and mutual promotion.
In the context of rural revitalization, moving forward step by step, our village's life will be more prosperous. Cheng Xiangbo said. (ENDS).
