"Growing Up with the Communist Party": Xiao Lai is the son of a poor farmer. In the old society, the whole family worked day and night but still could not afford enough to eat or wear, and they were filled with resentment toward the landlords. In 1929, the Communist Party established the Western Fujian Workers' and Peasants' Soviet Government in Fujian. Under the Party's education, Xiao Lai realizes that the Red Army is fighting for revolution to liberate the people. The village organized a children's group, and he became its leader. Later, he joined the Communist Youth League and gained the opportunity to study further, deepening his understanding of revolutionary principles. Due to his strong fighting spirit, he joined the Communist Party and received another opportunity to study at the Party school. He followed the Communist Party wholeheartedly from childhood to adulthood, forging him into a willful and vibrant young revolutionary. "The Heirs of Nameless Heroes": Xiao Ming's father, Li Xia, is an old Red Army veteran. Before liberation, the Party sent him to work in Shanghai. He often told Xiao Ming stories about the revolutionary struggle. On the New Year's Eve of 1948, Li Xia and his wife were unfortunately arrested. The reactionaries of the Kuomintang used severe torture but could not extract any confessions, forcing Xiao Ming to find his father's close friend. However, Xiao Ming firmly remembered the stories his father told him and refused to seek help from his father's friend, enduring cold and hunger instead. Later, Comrade Li Xia heroically sacrificed his life, and the enemy failed to obtain what they wanted from Xiao Ming. Soon after, Shanghai was liberated. "Growing Up with the Communist Party" tells the story of Xiao Lai, who, under the care and guidance of the Party, joined the children's group, the Communist Youth League, and the Communist Party, gradually becoming a steadfast revolutionary fighter. Under the Party's nurturing, Xiao Ming grew up.
