The origin of sports

During the May 4th movement, the movement of studying in France gradually developed on the basis of studying in France advocated and organized by Chinese people in France before and after the revolution of 1911, the study after work of Chinese tofu company in Paris, and the education of Chinese workers in France during the European war.

Rong Hong was the first person in China to study abroad. Under his proposal, the Qing government selected the first group of children aged 12 to 16 to study in the United States.

At the beginning of 1912, Li Shizeng, Wu Zhihui and Cai Yuanpei initiated the establishment of "frugal society of studying in France" in Beijing. Its purpose is to encourage young students to study in France with low cost and thrifty spirit, so as to import Western civilization into China and improve Chinese society. Later, it was destroyed by Yuan Shikai's government, and the frugal society in France stopped its activities because Li Shizeng and Cai Yuanpei were forced to exile in France.

The rise of the movement

Before they go to France, they need to make necessary preparations in China, learn some French, western customs and general craft skills, so as to communicate, work and learn after they go to France.

After the fall of Yuan Shikai in 1916, Cai Yuanpei, Li Shizeng and Wu Yuzhang, who were forced to go into exile abroad, returned home one after another and began to publicize and organize work study programs in France. After hard work, more than 20 preparatory schools and classes have been set up in France. Among them, in 1917, the first technical school in France was established in Buli village, Gaoyang County, Baoding. Cai Hesen, one of the early founders of the Communist Party of China, graduated from the school.

In the autumn of 1917, Yude middle school in Baoding set up a preparatory class for advanced technology in France. The high quality of teaching, good teaching equipment and the large number of people going to France in this class can not be compared with other schools. Revolutionary predecessors Liu Shaoqi, Li Weihan, Li Fuchun and other Hunan students graduated from this class. In 1918, it also set up the higher French special training hall in Beijing and Changxindian, from which Zhao Shiyan and he Changgong graduated.

Sports craze

When the work study program in France was booming, new ideas and new culture were widely spread in China. Aspiring young people urgently demanded to go to France to seek ways to save the country. Work study program in France met this need. With the strong support of local governments and social sages, work study program in France formed a nationwide upsurge in just over a year after the May 4th movement.

Mao Zedong went out of Hunan and went to Beijing just to contact with the work study program in France, thus embarking on the revolutionary road. Although he did not go to France, he always held great enthusiasm and support for the work study movement in France. At that time, he Guo (also known as he Peizhen), a Hunan student of Yude preparatory class in Baoding, studied in France. In his diary, he recorded in detail that Mao Zedong and others made a special trip from Beijing to Baoding to visit Hunan students studying in the preparatory class of Yude middle school in France. Sichuan has the largest number of students studying in France. Zhao Shiyan, Deng Xiaoping, Chen Yi and Nie Rongzhen are all Sichuan students.

After the preparatory study in China, the students studying in France began to go to France in batches in 1919. Mao Zedong also made a special trip to Shanghai to see off the first batch of students in France. According to incomplete statistics, in less than two years from March 17, 1919 to December 15, 1920, 20 groups of students came to France, about 2000 people.

Hard working and thrifty students live a very hard life on the voyage to France, because in order to save money, most of these poor children take the class without class, and some even share the same class with cattle and horses. They usually set out from Shanghai, passing Hong Kong, Saigon, Singapore, Colombo and Aden to enter the Red Sea, crossing the Suez Canal, passing port said to enter the Mediterranean Sea, arriving at Marseilles, the French port, or by way of London, and then to Paris, the capital of France. They are tired and bumpy all the way, and if they are seriously ill after landing. But they soon picked themselves up and put themselves into the intense work and study.
