Why is the Communist Party of China (CPC)'s Party Building Day scheduled for July 1? What's the special meaning?
Mao Zedong was the first person to propose that July 6th be the birthday of the Party. 1938 in may, Mao Zedong published the famous "on protracted war" in Yan' an. In the article, Mao Zedong said: "July 1 Sunday this year is the17th anniversary of the founding of China * * * Production Party. In order to make every party member in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression do its best and make greater efforts, it is also necessary to study a protracted war. "

In the form of the central document of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, July of 1 year was officially designated as the birthday commemoration of the party, which was on June 30th of 194 1 year. At that time, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China was in Yan 'an. In order to solemnly commemorate the 20th anniversary of the founding of China * * * Production Party, the comrades in Yan 'an Archives Department specially went to consult the original archives of our Party. However, in the process of consulting, it was found that most of the original files of CUHK were lost in many transfers due to the war years.

Therefore, the comrades in the archives department specially visited He Dong, who had attended the first Party Congress in Yan 'an at that time, and asked them to help recall the specific date of the first Party Congress. Because 20 years have passed and their personal memory is limited, they only remember that it was July 192 1, and the weather was very hot, but they can't remember the specific day.

Under such circumstances, on June 30th 194 1, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China issued the Central Committee's Instructions on the 20th Anniversary of the Communist Party of China (CPC)'s Birth and the 4th Anniversary of the Anti-Japanese War. In this instruction, it is clearly pointed out: "July 1st this year is the 20th anniversary of the birth of China * * * Production Party, and July 7th is the 4th anniversary of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. All anti-Japanese base areas should hold separate meetings, adopt various methods to hold commemorative meetings, and publish special issues or editions in various publications. "

Since then, every July 1 day, the whole party should warmly celebrate the anniversary of the party's birth. 1957 65438+ 10, the Central Committee of the Soviet Union handed over to the Central Committee of China * * * all three documents kept by China * * * international organizations that year. China * * * these documents recorded in detail the specific situation of the party's first congress and the program and resolutions adopted by the party.

In addition, 1960, the library of Columbia University in the United States published the graduation thesis submitted by China * * * on behalf of Chen Gongbo when he was a graduate student at Columbia University in the United States in June 1924+0, and attached six early documents of China * * * production party. The attached English version of "The First Program of the China * * * Production Party" is exactly the same as the Russian version of "The First Program of the China * * * Production Party" handed over to China by the Soviet Central Committee.

At this point, the first national congress of China * * * production party was held on July 23rd, 192 1, and the study was clear, but the glorious day of July 1st has been deeply engraved in the hearts of the whole party and people of all nationalities for decades. Therefore, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China thinks that there is no need to change the anniversary of the Party's birth, and still regards July 1 day as the anniversary of the Communist Party of China (CPC)'s birth every year.
