Xiang Nan's experience is similar to Ren Zhongyi's. He comes from a revolutionary family. Father Xiang Yunian was one of the earliest members of the Communist Party of China in western Fujian. His mother was imprisoned and his uncle was killed. Chinese Communist Party elder Xi Zhongxun praised him as a "loyal and righteous man throughout the entire family". He worked at the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League in his early years and was labeled as a "counter revolutionary" in 1958. It was not until May 1979, 21 years later, that the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China approved the revocation of the "Resolution on the Errors of Xiang Nan" and the original disciplinary decision. In 1981, he went south to govern Fujian. It is said that he took a train to his post with only one secretary accompanying him, leaving the Fujian officials who were picking him up at a loss. Xiang Nan went to Fujian and embarked on a major path of reform. First, he comprehensively promoted the "household contract production" policy to liberate rural productivity. Then, he suggested to Deng Xiaoping to expand the scope of Xiamen Special Economic Zone. He also took responsibility and approved the borrowing of low interest loans from Kuwait to build Xiamen International Airport. He was the first senior official to recognize the strategic significance of township enterprises and publicly declared, 'We must regard township enterprises as more dear than our own sons!' In 1984, he actively encouraged state-owned enterprise directors to call for power and personally planned the Fujian factory director's' Relaxation Open Letter '. He is politically friendly and goes to poverty-stricken mountainous areas for investigation. He has been running around for more than ten days, but he is like a beggar. Not long after taking office in 1981, the Fujian Daily published two economic crime cases, and he specially drafted an editorial with only 134 words from beginning to end: "Why can't some cases be dealt with for a long time? Today, the newspaper published two important cases. The bad guys have been exposed and dealt with, which is good. Some problems are clear to the masses, and there are also many discussions among cadres. The nature of the problems is already very clear, but they cannot be dealt with for a long time, and cannot be dealt with for a long time. Why? First, there is poop in one's own butt; second, factionalism; third, weakness and incompetence. If your unit's problems cannot be dealt with for a long time, which one can you think about?" As soon as this article was published, even the Christian Science Monitor paid attention to it. Arriving, it is said that Fujian has produced a 'fresh official'.
