Extended information:
The origin of National Day
October 1, 1949, is the anniversary of the founding of New China. It should be pointed out that in many people’s memories, the founding ceremony of the People’s Republic of China was held in Tiananmen Square in Beijing on October 1, 1949, with hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians participating. In fact, this impression is not accurate in people's minds.
The ceremony held in Tiananmen Square on October 1, 1949 was to celebrate the establishment of the Central People's Government of the People's Republic of China, not the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China. In fact, the "founding" of the People's Republic of China, that is to say, the establishment of the People's Republic of China, had been announced as early as a week before October 1 of that year.
At that time, it was not called the "Founding Ceremony of the People's Republic of China", but the "Founding Ceremony of the People's Republic of China". The time is September 21, 1949. On this day, Mao Zedong, director of the preparatory meeting for the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, announced the birth of New China when he delivered his opening speech at the first session of the CPPCC.
