About Pan Fusheng
- Pan Fusheng (Chinese: ???; December 1908 – April 1980) was a Chinese Communist revolutionary and politician.
- He was the first party secretary of the short-lived Pingyuan Province of the People's Republic of China, and also served as the First Secretary (i.e.
- party chief) of Henan and Heilongjiang provinces. During the Great Leap Forward, Pan sympathized with Marshal Peng Dehuai, a critic of Mao Zedong's collectivization policy.
- As a result, in 1958 he was dismissed as party chief of Henan and subjected to persecution, but was later rehabilitated. When the Cultural Revolution began, Pan, then party chief of Heilongjiang province, embraced the rebel Red Guards movement and gained the support of Mao.
- However, he was soon involved in major factional violence, and was dismissed again in 1971 and put under investigation.
- In 1982, the Communist Party of China posthumously criticized him for committing "serious mistakes" during the Cultural Revolution.
