Features: Yu Ruomu, the wife of Chen Yun, wrote a preface titled "The Revolutionary Family Tradition Passes Down Generation After Generation" for this book. Zhu Jiamu, Chen Yun's former secretary and Vice President of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, wrote a lengthy preface of nearly 40,000 words titled "A Lifetime Striving for the Cause of Communism." Chen Yun's children, Chen Weili, Chen Yuan, Chen Weihua, Chen Weilan, Chen Fang, and their niece Meng Yun, contributed articles such as "Always Work, Study, and Live Like Father" and "Deeply Remembering My Uncle Chen Yun." Dozens of experts and scholars in Party history and Party construction from organizations such as the National Defense University of the People's Liberation Army, the General Political Department of the People's Liberation Army, and the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences also participated in writing this book. The Great Leader Chen Yun collects memories and records of Chen Yun's work and life from his family, colleagues, and researchers, vividly reflecting his theoretical contributions, revolutionary achievements, economic construction ideas, leadership skills, and personal charm from different perspectives. The Great Leader Chen Yun authentically documents the outstanding achievements Chen Yun created in the cause of the Chinese people's liberation and the socialist construction of New China, showcasing the high moral character and noble spirit of this great proletarian revolutionary who dedicated his life to the rise of the Chinese nation.
Hou Shudong's The Great Leader Chen Yun evaluates Chen Yun's revolutionary journey from multiple aspects. The book is divided into seven parts: The Journey, Philosophy, Economics, Party Building, Military, Style, and Chen Yun as Told by His Family, summarizing Chen Yun's lifelong struggle for communism. As the pioneer and founder of China's socialist economic construction, Chen Yun's philosophical thoughts on economic work, the creation of a socialist market tailored to China's conditions and the needs of its people, the theory of national strength constraints to the Scientific Outlook on Development, the need to balance economic construction and people's livelihoods, the importance of maintaining and improving the Party's style, and his strategic vision in leading wartime financial and economic work all contain valuable content for readers. Articles in the book, such as "Chen Yun and Pingtan Art," "Interview with Yu Ruomu, the Wife of Chen Yun," and "Interview with the Five Children of Chen Yun," record Chen Yun's personal charm from different angles.
