Lei Feng Spirit

Years ablaze with passion, a journey of relentless striving and progress.
Lei Feng (December 18, 1940 – August 15, 1962), born Lei Zhengxing, was a soldier in the Chinese People’s Liberation Army and a communist fighter. In 1940, he was born into a poor peasant family in Hunan Province. In the autumn of 1947, his parents and older brother all died tragically, leaving the seven-year-old Lei Feng an orphan. In 1954, Lei Feng joined the Young Pioneers of China; in 1960, he enlisted in the Chinese People’s Liberation Army and, in November of the same year, became a member of the Communist Party of China. On August 15, 1962, Lei Feng died in the line of duty at the age of 22.
 
Lei Feng’s greatest legacy to posterity is the “Lei Feng Spirit,” named after him. This spirit embodies selfless dedication in the struggle for communism; unwavering loyalty to the Party and the people, a spirit of putting the public good above personal interests; the “screw‑in‑the‑machine” ethos of excelling in one’s own duties and achieving extraordinary results through ordinary work; and a tenacious, hardworking spirit that spares no effort, disregards personal gain, and strives to make contributions. Ultimately, it is a spirit of wholehearted service to the people. Since March 5, 1963—when Mao Zedong and other central leaders inscribed messages and issued the momentous call to “Learn from Comrade Lei Feng”—March 5 has been observed as “Lei Feng Memorial Day.”
Carry forward the spirit of Lei Feng.
Serve the people wholeheartedly.
On March 5, 2024, our museum visited Linchuan No. 9 Primary School to host the “I Carry Forward the Spirit of Lei Feng and Strive to Be a Young Pioneer of Our Times” event. During the session, educators recounted in detail many touching stories about Lei Feng, captivating the students, who eagerly participated by answering questions posed in class.


Meanwhile, our museum also crafted Lei Feng–themed bookmarks to give to students, encouraging them to emulate Lei Feng in their daily lives. Afterwards, educators distributed canvas bags adorned with Lei Feng–related designs, inviting students to add their own personal touches.


This event helps foster a positive atmosphere among the younger generation for learning from Lei Feng’s spirit, and it plays an important role in guiding students to deeply appreciate his exemplary character and strive to become model young people of the new era.
Students’ Wonderful Moments
Serve the people wholeheartedly.
