This year, the southern Book Festival continued to make efforts in going deep into the grass-roots level. The number of branch venues was expanded from 321 last year to 373. Based on local characteristics, various cities launched a number of offline activities to promote the formation of a joint force for the whole people to read, so that the fragrance of books in southern Guangdong could be wafted. Among them, many prefectures and cities in the province have invited local writers and scholars to introduce new books with local characteristics in combination with local characteristics, and have close communication and sharing with readers, so that readers can deepen their understanding and feelings of the region in the process of reading. Huizhou: revisiting the historical story of the "provincial port rescue" was held in the Huizhou Branch. The first reading sharing meeting of the National Reading Series "crossing the blockade - provincial port rescue" was held online. Gong Zhentao, deputy director of the Publicity Department of Huizhou Municipal Party committee and director of the press and publication Bureau, as a reading promoter, introduced it to the public through live video and shared the red cultural memory of Huizhou with the readers. It is reported that "crossing the blockade line" is one of the "Guangdong red documentary series" planned by the Propaganda Department of the Guangdong provincial Party committee. It was written by Chen Xue, chairman of the Huizhou Writers Association, and took six years to write. The book truly records the whole process of Guangdong local Party organizations and Dongjiang guerrillas risking their lives to rescue cultural figures, discloses many little-known rescue details, and vividly describes the whole process of secret rescue. Gong Zhentao introduced the three parts of "where cultural celebrities come from", "why to save cultural celebrities" and "how to rescue and fight", reviewed the historical event of "the greatest rescue work since the Anti Japanese War", and let the audience explore the historical details through the eventful years. "I chose this book because it is a Huizhou story written by Huizhou people, and it is also a red culture that is worth digging deeply." He said. "In this rescue operation, Huizhou, as one of the main transit stations in the secret rescue, has made important contributions to the continuation of contemporary Chinese culture." According to Gong Zhentao, Qiaodong East Lake Hotel, a transit station in Huizhou City, has been built into a "exhibition hall for rescuing Chinese cultural celebrities" and has become an important revolutionary historical site and red education base in Huizhou. Shantou: the overseas Chinese lecture attracted the public to stop and listen to the southern Book Festival. During the festival, the Shantou sub venue was full of books. Zeng Xubo, a special researcher of the culture and history of Shantou CPPCC, came to Hongxin book city to have face-to-face exchanges with citizens and readers. He held a Chaoshan cultural lecture entitled "basic knowledge of overseas Chinese criticism", which attracted many citizens and readers to attend the lecture. Zeng Xubo's research on overseas Chinese criticism over the years is concentrated in his book research on overseas Chinese criticism in Chaoshan. "Chaoshan is a famous hometown of overseas Chinese in China. Chaozhou people have a long history of going abroad, and their footprints are all over the world. During the Tang and Song Dynasties, Chaozhou had trade contacts with foreign countries, and there were records of Chaozhou people going abroad after the middle of the Ming Dynasty." Zeng Xubo said that especially after Shantou opened its port in 1860, a large number of workers were able to go abroad, creating necessary conditions for the formation of overseas Chinese batch industry. Overseas Chinese criticism is a unique culture produced by overseas Chinese under special historical conditions. At the lecture, he showed the citizens the Meixian water guest card, overseas Chinese approver card, Thailand chenxiaoli bill of exchange, Malaysia overseas Chinese wholesale contract, Singapore, Vietnam, Cambodia and other countries overseas Chinese wholesale and historical materials in the 1950s
