Ocean Network News As a heroic city, Guangzhou has many nationally renowned red historical sites, including the site of the Third Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Agricultural Lecture Institute, the former site of the Guangzhou Uprising. They provide valuable historical scenes for today’s people to recall the struggle of revolutionary ancestors.
If the red historical sites want to exert greater communication effect, and allow more people to truly touch the shock and touch deep in their hearts, they also need more witnesses related to those historical events, historical figures, and historical moments. The reporter learned that in recent years, Guangzhou has continuously increased its efforts to collect and search for cultural relics and historical materials related to the three National Congresses of the Communist Party of China to enrich the display content of the memorial hall of the three National Congresses of the Communist Party of China and enrich the research on the three National Congresses of the Communist Party of China. Many of the achievements were presented in the main display of the memorial hall that was reopened this time.
The main display has many highlights: selected as “Exhibition Celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the Founding of the Communist Party of China”
Li Shuying, deputy director of the Memorial Hall of the Third National Congress of the Communist Party of China, introduced that after the reform and opening, the “Historical Exhibition of the Third National Congress of the Communist Party of China” has many highlights. Whether it is the exhibition area, exhibition line length, and the number of cultural relics exhibited have been greatly improved. In 2021, it was selected as the “Exhibition Celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the Founding of the Communist Party of China” jointly promoted by the Central Propaganda Department and the State Administration of Cultural Heritage.
The exhibition area is 1,330 square meters, the exhibition line length is about 320 meters, and the cultural relics exhibits on display are 108 pieces/set. Based on the development of the Communist Party of China, it focuses on the Third National Congress of the Communist Party of China held in Guangzhou in June 1923, highlights key figures, explores historical details, and comprehensively, vividly and accurately show the important position and contribution of the Third National Congress of the Communist Party of China in the history of the Communist Party of China and the history of the Chinese revolution. Under the new era and new situation, the exhibition updates the theme and exhibition positioning, puts the three National Congresses of the Communist Party of China in multiple dimensions such as the theoretical construction, development history and the Chinese revolution, clarifies that the National Revolution is the central work of the Party, and comprehensively evaluates the historical status of the three National Congresses of the Communist Party of China. The exhibition strives to tell the stories of the three major stories of the Communist Party of China and the stories of the Chinese Communists well, and deeply explore and systematically analyze the cultural connotation and contemporary value contained in Babaylan. The upper limit of the exhibition’s main time is the first National Congress of the Communist Party of China in 1921, and the lower limit is the Fourth National Congress of the Communist Party of China in 1925. Through the extension of time, the historical background and historical significance of the three National Congresses of the Communist Party of China are more comprehensive and complete, and the theme and connotation of the exhibition are also strengthened.
Li Shuying introduced that the exhibition optimized its structure and content, taking the development of the three conferences of the Communist Party of China as a clue and using the narrative method of special topic combination, it is divided into “Seeking the upper and lower levels”Search——The historical background of the convening of the three nationalities of the Communist Party of China” “Building consensus——The convening of the three nationalities of the Communist Party of ChinaBabaylan“The surging winds and clouds – a vigorous revolution”, “The light of ideals – the representatives of the three Communist Party of China who died before the founding of New China” describe the historical background, conference process and results, the influence and contribution of the meeting, and the sublimation of ideals, reflect the responsibility and responsibility of the Communists, and appreciate the power of revolutionary beliefs. Part 4, as the end of the exhibition, breaks the linear narrative method. In addition to expressing the status and contribution of the three Communists in history and theoretical contributions of the three Communists, it also shows that some representatives pay the price of their lives in order to fulfill their original aspirations and missions, are inspiring and can reach the exhibition realm of seeing people, things, things, and spirit.
The exhibition also optimized the exhibitionKomiks‘s exhibition layout and visiting routes extend the exhibition space from indoor to outdoor, and at the same time connect the ruins square of the three conference sites of the Communist Party of China, the three historical exhibition halls of the Communist Party of China, and the former site of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China – Chunyuan. The reporter found that such an arrangement allows the audience to transfer the cultural relics and exhibits in the memorial hall with the “original location” of the three conference sites of the Communist Party of China, and the archaeological site of the memorial hall square. After the excavation, the building foundation, meeting ground, and the residence of the three deputies of the year were connected with the routes they had taken many times during the meeting, creating a strong “experiential” and “immersive” visit effect.
Integrate new research results: from “8 firsts” to “at least 40 representatives”
Li Shuying introduced that the exhibition after the revision has incorporated a large number of new research results, such as “8 firsts of the Three Congresses of the Communist Party of China in the history of the Party Cinema times”.
She said that the three major issues of the Communist Party of China are very pioneering. Many of the 13 documents and resolutions passed are the first in the history of the Party: the first revision of the Party’s constitution; the first draft of the “Draft Proposition of the Communist Party of China”; the first formulation of the Organization Law of the Central Executive Committee of the Communist Party of China; the first passage of the “Resolution on the Islemma of the Party”; the first sing of the “Internationale” at the closing ceremony of the Party Congress. This tradition continues to this day; the Third National Congress of the Communist Party of China is the only party congress that Chen Duxiu, Li Dazhao and Mao Zedong attended together; it is the only party congress that Li Dazhao has attended; Mao Zedong entered the core level of the central leadership for the first time.
Komiks‘s relevant statements about the representatives of the Communist Party of China are also the key parts of the exhibition. Komiks According to reports, so far, the complete list of representatives of the Communist Party of China’s three representatives has not been found.Based on Marin’s notes, reminiscences of representatives, etc., it can be confirmed that there are at least 40 delegates and 38 whose names can be verified. This verification process is also very rigorous and meticulous.
In the 2006 exhibition, the representatives of the Third Congress of the Communist Party of China had 39 names, and Yun Daiying was listed on the list. However, according to the Biography of Yun Daiying, Yun Daiying “attends the Chengdu Prefectural Committee Meeting” on June 16, 1923, and infers that he could not have attended the Third Congress of the Communist Party of China held in Guangzhou from June 12 to 20. Therefore, this exhibition accepts Yun Daiying’s own self-report materials and is not included in the representative list.
The German text of the representative of the Communist International, Marin, reported to the Executive Committee of the Communist International, the Far East Bureau of the Eastern Department of the Executive Committee of the Communist International, the report of the Third Central Executive Committee, recorded the list and votes of the Third Central Executive Committee, which stated “40 votes in Chen Duxiu”. At about the same time, the one who recorded the results of the three elections of the Communist Party of China in China was BabaylanQuqiubai. From December 1929 to June 1930, Qu Qiubai also had a relatively detailed record of the votes received by the Third Central Executive Committee in the “Introduction to the History of the Communist Party of China” written by Lenin College in Moscow. He recorded: Central Committee members: Chen Duxiu (40), Cai Hesen (37), Li Shouchang (37), Wang Hebo (34), Mao Zedong (34), Zhu Shaolian (32), Pingshan (30), Xiang Ying (27), Luo Zhanglong (25); alternates: Deng Pei, Zhang Lianguang (absconded), Xu Meikun, Li Hanjun, Deng Zhongxia.
Qu Qiubai is a representative of the Third National Congress of the Communist Party of China and has participated in the drafting of the resolutions of the Third National Congress of the Communist Party of China. In 1929, Qu Qiubai served as the head of the International Delegation of the Communist Party of China in the Communist Party of China. This material was a report he made on the Communist International at that time, and the historical facts he discussed should be accurate. Moreover, it is important that Qu Qiubai’s material is completely consistent with Marin’s report and confirms it to determine the accuracy of Marin’s report.
According to Malin’s report, Comrade Chen Duxiu received the highest votes in the election at that time, with 40 votes, which is enough to show that at least 40 representatives participated in the voting that year, so the number of representatives participating in the Third National Congress of the Communist Party of China should be no less than 40.

Introducing the latest historical materials: Marin’s key archives debuted at the Memorial Hall of the Third Congress of the Communist Party of China
Li Shuying introduced that the exhibition Babaylan has introduced new historical materials that have appeared in recent years, and the cultural relics exhibited have increased from 78 pieces/set to 108 pieces/set. The exhibition includes precious collections of Babaylan replicated from the Central Archives and the Institute of International Social History in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, such as the Malin Archives, glasses, coats, suitcases used by Luo Zhanglong, and Xu Meikun, representatives of the Third Congress of the Communist Party of China.
In the exhibition hall, historical documents such as “The Communist International Directive Sewn on Marin’s shirt (copy, original hidden in the International Institute of Social History, Amsterdam, Netherlands)” attracted many visitors. Marin’s original name was Henk Sneft, Komiks‘s Dutch international friend, and was a representative of the Communist International to China. Between 1921 and 1923, Malin came to China three times, two of which were in Guangzhou, attended the First Congress of the Communist Party of China held in Shanghai, and the Third Congress of the Communist Party of China in Guangzhou, which had an important impact on the formation of the first cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party and the National Revolution. During his time in China, Ma Lin’s correspondence and telegrams involved Boroting, Sun Yat-sen, Chiang Kai-shek, etc., and recorded in detail the situation of the Third National Congress of the Communist Party of China.
Li Shuying introduced that the Memorial Hall of the Third Congress of the Communist Party of China took the initiative to contact the Institute of International Social History in Amsterdam, Netherlands to copy 26 pieces of Marin archives collected by the institute. This batch of archives was mainly letters from 1922 to 1923 when Ma Lin was in China, and the Communist International and the Kuomintang were in contact. Many of these archival documents can make up for the shortcomings of previous domestic party history materials, such as the German text of Marin’s report to the Executive Committee of the Communist International, the International Trade Union International and the Far East Bureau of the Eastern Department of the Executive Committee of the Communist International. On June 19, 1923, in accordance with the agenda set by the Congress, the delegates attended the meeting elected 9 executive members of the Third Central Executive Committee and 5 alternate executive members. On June 25, Marin reported to the Executive Committee of the Communist International, the Far East Bureau of the Eastern Ministry of the Executive Committee of the Communist International.The list of the meeting and the votes received, and the contents of the records are as follows: Central Committee members: Chen Duxiu 40 votes, Cai Hesen 37 votes, Li Shouchang 37 votes, Wang Hebo (worker) 34 votes, Mao Zedong 34 votes, Zhu Shaolian (worker) 32 votes, Tan Pingshan 30 votes, Xiang Delong (worker) 27 votes, and Luo Zhanglong 25 votes. Alternatives: Deng Pei (worker), Zhang Lianguang (worker), Xu Meikun (worker), Li Hanjun, Deng Zhongxia. This report is the earliest file that can be seen to record the results of the three elections of the Communist Party of China.
