Site of the Ruijin Communications Agency

　　The Red China News Agency, abbreviated as "Hongzhong She" (Red China Agency), was the predecessor of Xinhua News Agency. It was established in November 1931 during the First National Congress of the Chinese Soviet Republic held in Yeping, Ruijin. During the congress, it began broadcasting news about the "First Soviet Congress" to both domestic and international audiences via radio. "This was the first time our Party broke through the enemy's iron wall and shared the news of victory with the people across the nation." Subsequently, the Red China News Broadcasting Station was also set up.

　　The Red China News Agency was the first communications institution created by our Party in the revolutionary base area and was directly under the jurisdiction of the Provisional Central Government. In 1994 and 2000, Xinhua News Agency allocated special funds on two separate occasions. Staff from the Xinhua News Agency Youth League Committee were dispatched to Ruijin to carry out comprehensive restoration of the site following the principle of "restoring the old as it was." Original and supplementary exhibits were displayed inside the site. Since its opening, the site has welcomed a total of 1.5 million visitors from home and abroad. The Xinhua News Agency Youth League Committee organizes its members and young staff to visit and study in Ruijin every year to receive revolutionary tradition education.
