With the development of urban traffic, a new bridge was built in 1923. After it was formally completed in 1927, the old bridge was demolished in 1928. Jiefang bridge, formerly known as the International Bridge, is connected to the Laolongtou Railway Station in the north and the Zizhulin Concession in Nantong. At that time, Tianjin was named because of the concessions of Britain, France, Russia, the United States, Germany, Japan, Italy, Austria and Belgium. This bridge is located at the entrance of the French Concession and was built under the auspices of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce of the French Concession, so people in Tianjin called it the French Bridge at that time. After War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's victory, the then National Government named this bridge after Chiang Kai-shek, which was called Zhongzheng Bridge. In 1949, after the liberation of Tianjin, the bridge was officially renamed as "jiefang bridge", which has been used ever since. There have been many stories and legends in jiefang bridge. Not only did the People's Liberation Army capture the bridge in just over 2 minutes, but it also staged a human tragedy in which some people committed suicide by jumping under the bridge. They also filmed Ma Yongzhen, Thunderstorm, Battle of the Armageddon, and Summer Blown by the Wind.
