Loving a Thousand People | Yuanzhou Group’s 2025 Qingming Commemoration Event for Martyrs and Heroes

As the Qingming Festival approaches, in order to promote the spirit of patriotism, honor the enduring contributions of revolutionary martyrs, and strengthen the team’s sense of national identity and ethnic pride, Yuanzhou Group has put its “Love One Person” philanthropic philosophy into practice by coordinating with numerous regional subsidiaries across the country to organize Qingming memorial activities for heroic martyrs. Employees have carried forward the red legacy through concrete actions, such as laying floral baskets and participating in red‑education initiatives.

Honoring the Martyrs, Forever Cherishing Our Original Aspiration

Industrial Branch Companies in the Linhai Region

On April 4, the Party Committee of Yuanzhou Group, Linhai Yuanzhou International Hotel, and Linhai Yuanzhou Petrochemical jointly organized a Qingming memorial ceremony at the Donghu Martyrs’ Cemetery. All participants stood in solemn silence for three minutes before the Monument to Revolutionary Martyrs, paying tribute through flower offerings and cleaning the cemetery grounds, thereby expressing their profound respect for the martyrs’ heroic deeds. The event, conducted as an immersive patriotic education experience, strengthened the team’s sense of historical mission and inspired employees to remember that peace is hard-won. Moving forward, the various industry subsidiaries in the Linhai region will continue to carry forward the revolutionary spirit through concrete actions, fulfilling their solemn pledge to “remember history and forge ahead with determination” through practical work.

Revisiting History, Empowering with Red Spirit

Hotels in the Jiaojiang District of Taizhou

On April 3, three hotels in the Taizhou region—the Taizhou Yuanzhou Phoenix Villa, the Taizhou Kaitou Yuanzhou Wyndham & Ramada Hotel, and the Taizhou Yuanzhou Yiting Hotel—jointly organized a visit for employee representatives to the Yijiangshan Island Landing Battle Memorial Hall. There, through historical footage, cultural relics, and reconstructed scenes, they revisited the heroic course of the battle. The group then proceeded to the Yijiangshan Island Martyrs’ Cemetery to lay flowers and observe a moment of silent remembrance, paying their deepest condolences to the martyrs who bravely gave their lives for national independence and the liberation of the nation.

Remembering the Martyrs, Carrying Forward the Red Legacy

Lujing Tiantai Resort Hotel

On April 2, the Lujing Tiantai Resort Hotel organized a group of management personnel and Party member representatives to visit a revolutionary base area for a Qingming memorial ceremony. The team held a collective moment of silence and laid flowers at the Martyrs’ Monument, while also cleaning up the surrounding area, demonstrating their respect for the revolutionary martyrs through concrete actions. Participants remarked that the memorial service deepened their understanding of the spirit of the revolution, and that they would take the revolutionary martyrs as role models, integrating this red heritage into their daily work and lives.

Hiking to Trace the Path, Forging Our Original Aspiration

Jiujiang Far East Sheraton Hotel & Jiujiang Far East Yiting Hotel

On April 3, the teams from the Jiujiang Far East Sheraton Hotel and the Jiujiang Far East Yiting Hotel held a memorial ceremony themed “Traces of Red History.” Twenty-three members of the hotel management walked 2.3 kilometers along the banks of Gantang Lake, listening along the way to tales of the lake’s thousand-year history. The Human Resources Department integrated on-site Party‑history education at key locations, focusing on the spirit of the 1998 flood‑relief efforts and the broader narrative of modern revolutionary history. Finally, the group gathered at the Martyrs’ Memorial Tower for a flower‑laying ceremony and observed a moment of solemn silence. Participants remarked: “As we step from the hotel into the heart of history, the role of service providers becomes inextricably linked with that of builders. The Qingming memorial rites are not an end point; rather, they mark the beginning of transforming the spirit of our heroic martyrs into a driving force for elevating service quality and fulfilling our social responsibilities.”

Remember History, Forge Ahead

De’an Yuanzhou Hotel

On April 4, the management team of De’an Yuanzhou Hotel visited Yifengshan Park to pay tribute on Qingming Festival. The group ascended the steps to the Revolutionary Martyrs’ Monument, laid flowers, and observed a moment of silent mourning, deeply honoring the heroic deeds of those who came before. Led by General Manager Hong Shanben, the entire team revisited the revolutionary history in a solemn and respectful ceremony, drawing inspiration and strength to move forward. This event served as a concrete step to carry forward the red heritage, encouraging the team to integrate the spirit of the martyrs into the hotel’s services and operations, thereby injecting spiritual momentum into its pursuit of high-quality development.

This Qingming commemorative public memorial and cleanup campaign has, to date, encompassed three industries and 11 branch offices under the Yuanzhou Group, with nearly one hundred employees participating. Guided by the principle of “caring for a community,” Yuanzhou Group has extended its philanthropic efforts to spiritual legacy and social responsibility, continuously fostering the deep integration of patriotic spirit with corporate development. Looking ahead, Yuanzhou Group will build on its “Five‑Pronged Philanthropy” framework, further leveraging red‑heritage resources to uphold the spirit of heroic martyrs and fulfill its mission of “creating a better life.”
