In the middle of summer, everything is verdant. Zhoujiazhuang Village, Datianzhuang Township, Feixian County ushered in the peak of summer tourism. Tourists live here in homestays, pick grapes, eat fried chicken, listen to insects and birds, watch the sunrise and sunset, and feel the slow life of the countryside.
"Every holiday, it is the most lively time in the village, where tourists live in homestays, experience farming, watch exhibitions and enjoy flowers, and feel rural life." Li Wei, the "head goose" talent of Fei County, secretary of the party branch of Zhoujiazhuang Village and director of the village committee, said.
Zhoujiazhuang Village is located in the hinterland of Mengshan Mountain, which is the core area of the national 3A-level scenic spot "Fruity Slow Valley". Standing on a high place overlooking, the overlord bow, the overlord pants, the Dawang Guanyin Peak, the Jade Emperor Peak, and the Jade Emperor Temple are all in sight, just like a three-dimensional picture, beautiful. Guarding the beautiful ecological environment and abundant tourism resources, the villagers here have been farming for generations, and have received limited benefits from traditional planting methods.
Bathed in the spring breeze of rural revitalization, Zhoujiazhuang Village has built roads and opened to traffic, and batches of "four geese" talents have also come, brewing greater changes. In 2007, Li Wei returned to his hometown to start a business after retiring from the army, took the lead in developing farmhouses, and upgraded his old house into a boutique homestay, with an annual income of more than 100,000 yuan. Under the influence of Li Wei, Zhoujiazhuang Village has developed more than 30 farmhouses, more than 40 picking gardens, and more than 60 farmhouse hotels and homestays.
In 2021, Li Wei, the leader of getting rich who has won the support of the masses, will serve as the secretary of the party branch and director of the village committee of Zhoujiazhuang Village. Driven by Li Wei, Zhoujiazhuang Village set up a "cultural tourism meal" and established a village-run enterprise, Shandong Zhoujiazhuang Tourism Service Co., Ltd., to provide standardized operation and drainage services for farmhouses and homestays in the village; Relying on the advantages of "raising osmanthus at home and planting wisteria at every household", more than 100 households have developed a courtyard economy such as high-pile steamed buns, bonsai planting, and processing of characteristic agricultural and sideline products; Continue to deepen the construction of beautiful villages, on the basis of maintaining the original appearance as much as possible, do not carry out large-scale demolition and construction, only do decoration and series, the village has built a landscape wall, cherry square, hometown square, etc., creating a pattern of close interdependence between the village and the landscape, and the close integration of man and nature, protecting the rural landscape, inheriting the rural context, and retaining the rural memory. In 2023, Zhoujiazhuang Village will attract more than 300,000 tourists to come for leisure tourism, with an annual tourism income of more than 40 million yuan.
Talent revitalization is the foundation of rural revitalization. As a "secretary of the military branch", Li Wei focuses on building a full-chain talent team of "secretary of the military branch, member of the military committee, and party members of the army" and cultivating the power of "four geese". He included qualified college students, retired soldiers, and enterprise personnel into the "reserve talent pool", dynamically updated and maintained them in real time, made full use of special periods such as winter and summer vacations, Spring Festival, and Mid-Autumn Festival, and strengthened contact and communication with foreign talents, so that college students, retired soldiers, and migrant workers and business personnel could understand the development of their hometowns, see the prospects for village-level development, enhance their enthusiasm and initiative to participate in development, and continue to inject "living water from the source" into rural revitalization. The integration of "red and green" and the revitalization of the countryside sing "poetry and distance". Li Wei deeply excavated the red resources of the place where the victory of Daqingshan broke through the battle, vigorously developed the new format of "beautiful countryside + party spirit education", and polished the red party spirit education brand. A total of 493,900 trainees have been trained in the "Three Sames" education base in Zhoujiazhuang Village, and 2,475,000 people have received education. "We will continue to improve the coordinated development system of 'spreading the red culture', 'making the living environment 'beautiful', the villagers' lives 'getting richer', and the eco-tourism 'getting stronger', so that the villagers' sense of gain, happiness and security will be more fulfilling and sustainable." Li Wei said.
