Historical evolution

In the early 1950s, Guifeng mountain was a barren mountain and a remote place.

In 1952, in order to develop and transform Guifeng mountain, Xinhui county Party committee and government set up a small farm at the foot of southeast mountain, called Huicheng farm.

In 1953, it was renamed Mars farm, and in 1957, it was renamed Guifeng farm again, belonging to Xinhui County demonstration farm. In order to speed up the realization of the slogan of "four changes" put forward by the county Party committee and the county government: "barren mountains turn into orchards, rivers into fish ponds, rice fields into granaries, and rural areas into gardens", we organized cadres of various grass-roots organs in Xinhui county to go down to Guifeng farm to participate in the construction of Guifeng mountain while learning cultural theoretical knowledge. On July 2, 1958, Premier Zhou Enlai visited Guifeng farm, fully affirmed the practice of the farm, and personally named Guifeng farm as "Xinhui Labor University", and wrote the inscription of "the combination of industry and agriculture, urban and rural areas, physical labor and mental labor". According to Premier Zhou's inscription, the Xinhui county Party committee and the county government are equipped with cadres to form the party and government leading group of Xinhui Labor University, which is under the leadership of the county Party committee and the county government. In the early 1960s, Xinhui Labor University made great achievements in both mountain management and education. From 1958 to 1960, he received 570 cadres from three groups of government organs organized by the county Party committee to study and work. From 1961 to 68, he successively held five training courses for young cadres, including 526 young cadres, 85 young cadres from the first forestry class, 182 young cadres from the first provincial agricultural middle school, and 60 young cadres from the first regional agricultural middle school principals. The school has also won the recognition of higher education departments for many times, and was also rated as the national advanced education unit in 1964. In the aspect of transforming nature, the students persisted in working and studying for half a day. They opened 920 hectares of barren mountains, built 5 kilometers of roads, planted 587 hectares of trees, built 12 reservoirs, and set up hydropower stations, machinery factories, distilleries, brick factories, bamboo and wood factories, and tea factories In addition, teaching buildings, classrooms, student dormitories, etc. have been built, and Yuhu small garden, long bridge, swimming pool, pavilions, platforms, buildings, pavilions, etc. have been built on the Bank of Yuhu lake.

In 1989, Guifeng mountain was designated as a scenic spot in Guangdong Province.

In 2002, it was rated as a national AAAA tourist area by the National Tourism Administration, and is the first AAAA tourist area in Wuyi.

In 2004, it was awarded the national greening model unit.

In 2005, it was named the national science education base and Guangdong science education base.

In the 1960s, Xinhui Labor University became a "new school" with the advantages of self-sufficiency, simultaneous development of agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, sideline fishery, and the development of industry, agriculture, commerce and education. After visiting and inspecting Guifeng mountain, Marshal Ye Jianying once wrote a poem praising "rivers and mountains add new territory every year, so Guifeng can't finish it". Many international friends and overseas Chinese came to visit and study. Xinhui Labor University was also a demonstration window for Guangdong Province's external publicity and reception at that time.

During the cultural revolution, Xinhui Labor University was stigmatized as "the black hole of capitalism" and "the paradise of sealing, funding and repairing". The school was in a state of stagnation for 10 years.

In the early 1980s, guifengshan developed from a farm type collective business unit to a comprehensive management of agriculture, industry and commerce. In the late 1980s, through expanding the scale of enterprise development, Xinhui labor university rapidly developed from the original construction industry and real estate industry into six pillar industries: industry, trade, tourism, agriculture and forestry, horticulture and construction. In the aspect of tourism industry, the infrastructure construction was initially formed. Guifeng cement road was built and opened, Yuhu hotel was built, Yuhu tourism facilities were increased, and Yuhu area was expanded Product.

In 1989, approved by the provincial people's government, Guifeng mountain was one of the first batch of provincial scenic spots in Guangdong Province.

In the 1990s, the economy of the labor University developed rapidly, and the scale of industrial development continued to expand. There were 29 enterprises affiliated to the University, with more than 1000 cadres and workers. Business, construction, real estate, agriculture, forestry, horticulture and other pillar industries continued to develop, investment in fixed assets gradually expanded, and forestry greening work achieved remarkable results.

In 1996, Guifeng mountain was rated as one of the top 400 afforestation units in China by the Ministry of forestry of the people's Republic of China. In 1997, it was approved as a national forest park by the Ministry of forestry of the people's Republic of China.

In 1999, guifengshan experienced an economic transformation from a cadre farm to an all-round development of agriculture, industry and commerce, and then to the development of tourism and the tertiary industry. The Management Committee of Guifeng Mountain Scenic Area in Xinhui City was established. The brand of Labor University in Xinhui City was kept, and the brand of Guifeng Mountain National Forest Park Management Committee in Xinhui City was put up at the same time.

In 2001, in order to adapt to the economic and social transformation of Guifeng mountain, the Management Committee of Guifeng mountain scenic area and the Management Committee of Guifeng Mountain National Forest Park were established as the agency of the municipal (District) people's government to manage the scenic area and National Forest Park on behalf of the government.

In 2002, Guifeng mountain was rated as a national AAAA tourist area by the National Tourism Administration.

In 2004, with the concern and support of the leaders at the municipal and district levels, the Management Committee of guifengshan National Forest Park was further designated as the deputy department level unit.

In 2006, with the approval of the Xinhui District Committee and the district government, Guifeng District officially implemented the town level financial management system. The mission of Xinhui Labor University as a cadre training base has come to an end, and all its administrative functions have been transferred. As a scenic spot and National Forest Park, the administrative function of Guifeng mountain has been highlighted and strengthened. The economic and social development of Guifeng mountain returns to the normal track of government management function.
