1June, 905 13, Chen Yun was born in a poor peasant family in Qingpu (p incarnation) County, Jiangsu Province (now Shanghai). His parents died when he was very young, and he lived with his uncle. He goes to school late because his family is poor. After graduating from primary school, he didn't go to middle school, but went to Shanghai Commercial Press as an apprentice, and later became a publisher of this famous publishing institution. This exposed him to many books and newspapers. He loved reading, just like he was hungry: he wanted to eat when he was hungry and drink when he was thirsty. Metaphor demand is extremely urgent. Study hard, gain rich knowledge through self-study, become a clerk with high cultural accomplishment, and have great prestige in the publishing house.

1925, Shanghai workers launched a massive May 30th Movement against imperialist aggression and oppression. Chen Yun, 20, devoted himself to this movement with patriotic enthusiasm and was elected as the president of the Trade Union of the Commercial Press. He joined China and led the workers to participate in the struggle, becoming an outstanding leader of the early workers' movement in China.

Chen Yun is good at summing up experience, using his head and analyzing the struggle situation. After the May 30th Movement, he seriously thought about it and published the article "The Past and Future of the National Movement in China" in his own publication "Workers", which showed his high sense of responsibility and foresight for the revolutionary movement in China.

Since the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the Boxer Rebellion, especially from the struggle between the May 4th Movement and the May 30th Movement, he has analyzed the gains and losses of the national movement in China and reached an important conclusion: without the participation of workers and peasants, the revolution would be difficult to succeed. He pointed out: "How to organize thousands of farmers, and how to train the organized farmers and put them on the right track (ɡ u ǐ) ... This is an urgent problem to be solved in China ... I realized: from confusion to understanding; Recognize by touching the paste, wake up. Young people should shoulder this arduous responsibility. "Go among the people" is an important slogan in the future national movement in China. "

1933 At the beginning of this year, Chen Yun arrived in Jiangxi Central Revolutionary Base from Shanghai to take charge of trade union work. Because the factories and enterprises in the base areas are small factories or workshops in small rural towns, which are different from those in big cities such as Shanghai, in order to consolidate and develop the base areas, workers must be encouraged to work actively, create wealth and support the revolution. He opposes copying mechanically: he describes the experience and methods of others without proceeding from the actual situation. We have successfully applied the methods of workers' movement in Shanghai's big cities here.

In order to find a suitable method, Chen Yun also went to Tingzhou and other places for in-depth investigation, grasped the specific situation and understood the workers' requirements. Then, according to the different situations of various industries, trade union work is carried out to help workers sign labor contracts with factory owners and shopkeepers.

Chen Yun also put forward many correct opinions on the economic work in the base areas, and opposed the economic struggle that ignored workers' interests and the mistake of not caring about improving workers' lives. Since then, he has attached great importance to economic issues and accumulated valuable experience.

During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, Chen Yun served as the head of the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee in Yan 'an. He proposed that the organization should know more about revolutionary cadres, be generous, make good use of them, care about people, and be careful not to raise everything to the height of principle.

Chen Yun also advocates caring for people and being responsible for a person's future. A young man who had participated in the revolution for seven years was expelled from the party because he was exposed to historical problems. Later, although the party membership was restored, the revolutionary history of the first seven years was obliterated. He said sadly, "I'd better go to the front and sacrifice myself." Chen Yun know, find the organization department to verify. Two months later, he found that his history was innocent and made a correct conclusion. The young cadre was in high spirits. Chen Yun's conscientious and responsible work was praised by all Party comrades.

1945 In May, at the Seventh National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC), Chen Yun's speech left a deep impression on everyone. In his speech, he criticized some cadres, especially senior cadres, for being proud, preferring people to say that he is good rather than making suggestions, and even felt that "brothers can be proud if they make some contributions." Chen Yun said:

"Personal role is there, but don't overestimate yourself. Anyone who leaves the people and the party can't do anything, so it is necessary to estimate. "

Chen Yun's speech is both simple and vivid, which greatly touched the cadres of the whole party and sounded the alarm: the bell for reporting accidents or dangerous situations is often used as a metaphor …

After War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's victory, in order to strengthen the revolutionary forces in Northeast China, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China sent many senior cadres to work in Northeast China. Chen Yun also went to the northeast, as deputy secretary of DongBeiJu. At that time, in order to capture the whole Northeast, Chiang Kai-shek, with the support of the United States, launched an attack on the Northeast base area. The struggle situation is very severe (jùn).

/kloc-in the winter of 0/946, Chiang Kai-shek's army first aimed at Nanman area, attacked Nanman with a large number of troops and excellent equipment, and captured some places. At this time, some cadres lacked confidence in sticking to the Nanman base area and advocated retreating to Beiman to preserve their strength. Chen Yun, who is also the secretary of the branch of Nanman and the political commissar of the military region, came to the place where the cadres met in the heavy snow and said to everyone:

"The current situation of the enemy, we can't just consider the problem from the temporary and local interests. If we leave, there will be fewer casualties, but the enemy will successfully occupy Nanman. Nanman is the gate of the northeast. As soon as the gate was opened, the wolf entered the house, and the difficulties in northern Manchuria increased, and the situation in the whole northeast was critical. We should light the lamp in Nanman and don't let it go out. "

Chen Yun's words made sense, and the cadres were convinced and agreed. After the meeting, under the leadership of Chen Yun and Xiao (xiāo), Nanman troops fought fiercely with Kuomintang troops in Linjiang area, protected Linjiang within four months, finally repelled the enemy's attack, saved Nanman base area, and created favorable conditions for the later liberation of the whole Northeast. Chen Yun's foresight made everyone admire him very much.
