The Party Branch of the College of Humanities and Social Sciences went to Lotus Hill to carry out Party History Learning Theme Party Day Activities
In order to deeply study and implement the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech on Party history learning and education, welcome the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Party, and experience the great achievements of Shenzhen's 40 years of reform and opening up. On the morning of April 27, more than 20 party members from the party branch of the School of Humanities and Social Sciences of SUSTech climbed to the top of Lotus Hill to carry out the party history learning theme Party Day activity. Despite the heavy rain, the enthusiasm of comrades to participate in party building activities was very high.

In the process of climbing the mountain, Secretary Zhao Jianhua led everyone to review the main achievements of Comrade Deng Xiaoping's life and the conversation of visiting the south, as well as the tremendous changes that have taken place in Shenzhen in the 40 years of reform and opening up. All Party members are also enthusiastic about explaining their ideas and understanding of Party history learning. Everyone walks and talks, exchanges with each other, and the atmosphere of learning is always there.
The comrades first visited General Secretary Xi Jinping's hand-planting tree, which is an alpine banyan planted by General Secretary Xi in 2012 not far from the bronze statue of Deng Xiaoping in Lotus Mountain Park. It is leafy and full of vitality, and releases surging vitality in the rain.
The branch comrades then visited the Lotus Hill City Exhibition Hall. Reflecting this, General Secretary Xi Jinping proposed in February 2018 that "the expectation of a city is that the whole city is a big park, and the people come out like a garden in their own home." The exhibition hall shows the scientific concept of environmental protection, ecology and sustainable development implemented in the process of reform and opening up and modernization construction in Shenzhen with rich and image pictures, which truly accomplishes the "the whole city is a big park" proposed by General Secretary Xi.

The comrades looked up to the bronze statue of Deng Xiaoping, the chief designer of the reform and opening up, to express their admiration and remembrance of the great man. The bronze statue of Deng Xiaoping stands on the hilltop square of Lotus Hill Park, 6 meters high, the base is 3.68 meters high, and the background is a row of green evergreen dragon cypresses shaped like a tower. To the north of the statue is a granite wall measuring 13 meters long and 4.35 meters high. On the north side of the stone wall is engraved the inscription of Comrade Deng Xiaoping when he visited Shenzhen in 1984, "Shenzhen's development and experience have proved that our policy of establishing special economic zones is correct." On the south side of the stone wall is what Deng Xiaoping said, "I am the son of the Chinese people. I love my country and people dearly.”
This trip to Lotus Hill Park to study the theme of Party History Party Day deeply felt the great revolutionary spirit of the old generation of Communists who fought hard for the cause of reform and opening up and the cause of building socialism with Chinese characteristics, dared to be first and forged ahead. At the same time, the comrades of the Party members of the branch also deeply understood that as a member of the Communist Party of China, we must know the history of the Party, know the party's feelings, feel the party's gratitude, and follow the party. Party members and comrades have said that being in the SAR, we should play a pioneering and exemplary role, work hard, work hard, and make greater contributions to the beautiful future of the motherland.
