Biography

Early life

Lin Zu Lie was the third younger brother of Lin Boqu, an early leader of the Communist Party of China and a veteran of the Long March. He was also the oldest son-in-law of General Cheng Qian, a veteran of the Kuomintang. He was born in Xiumei town, Anfu (now Linli) county, Hunan province during the Qing dynasty.

Studies in France

In 1919, he was one of a group of students who traveled from China to France as part of the Diligent Work–Frugal Study Movement, a work-study program which brought Chinese students to France and Belgium to work in factories as a way to pay for their study of French culture and Western science. The group he was with sailed on the S.S. Paul Lecat.[1] leaving Shanghai on October 31, 1919 and arriving at Marseilles on November 25, 1919. He studied at the University of Nancy. While in France he joined the Chinese Communist Youth League in Europe.[2]

Communist Party Liason before the Nanchang Uprising

After returning from his studies abroad, he joined the Communist Party of China in Jiangxi in 1925.

He served as a professor at the National Guangdong University (the predecessor of Sun Yat-sen University), and was a political instructor at the Whampoa Military Academy. In October 1927, he served as the Jiangxi negotiator for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Nanjing Nationalist Government. He also served as the translator for Mikhail Borodin, the representative of the Comintern, at the Lushan Preparatory Conference for the Nanchang Uprising held by the Communist Party of China on July 9, 1927. Borodin spoke fluent English with a Midwestern accent, so Lin was able to translate.

He arranged a meeting held on July 20, 1927 at the Jiujiang British Concession Customs House and attended by Li Lisan, Deng Zhongxia, Ye Ting, Nie Rongzhen, and Tan Pingshan who chaired the meeting in his role as a member of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. The attendees carefully analyzed the political and military situation at the time and, for the first time, explicitly proposed the Nanchang Uprising.[3]

He was also the contact person for the underground Communist Party in Jiujiang, while working for the Nationalist Government in Jiujiang during the period of Nationalist-Communist cooperation. Lin Boqu, Mao Zedong, Zhou Enlai and many other early Communist leaders joined the Kuomingtang in their individual capacities during this time.

Before the Nanchang Uprising, Central Committee member Liu Shaoqi was hiding and recuperating at Mount Lu near Jiujiang, and Lin Zu Lie was responsible for arranging his stay and for maintaining communications. After the Northern Expeditionary Army arrived in Wuhan, he frequently traveled between Xunyang and Wuhan, and worked to plan and prepare for the Nanchang Uprising and the later CCP "August 7th Conference". Later, he served as a negotiator in Yantai, Shandong [4] [5] [6]

In June 1928, he was transferred to the position of supervisor of the Jiujiang Customs of the Ministry of Finance [7]. He resigned in 1930.

Death

He died of tuberculosis in Shanghai in January 1931.

Personal Life and Family

In 1925 he married Cheng Bo Lian, the oldest daughter of Cheng Qian, a high-ranking Kuomintang official who served as the Chairman of the Hunan Provincial Government [8]. She spoke fluent English, and helped her husband's proficiency with that language. They had a daughter and two sons, their father dying three months before the younger son was born.
