The picture-story book The Long March: 1936 is the companion volume of The Red Ribbonon the Earth. The Red Ribbon on the Earth narrates the Long March stories of the Red Army prior to October, 1935 Before completion of The Red Ribbon on the Earth in 1993, I had hoped that the original author Wei Wei could write a sequel to finish the Long March stor.ies after October 1935, so that I could continue my painting. But Wei Wei indicated that he was already advanced in years, and his ability didn't equal to the ambition. In that circumstance, I did not stick to my request. However, it became an unfulfilled wish in my heart. Since then, I devoted myself to oil painting on historical theme especially that of the Long March. But single pieces of historical oil painting differ after all from a picture-story book, whose advantages of all-dimensional, multiple-layered and multi-viewed narrative expression continued to attract me unceasingly. Finally, 20 years after my creation of The Red Ribbon on the Earth, I was determined to write and paint the sequel all by myself about the Long March after October 1935. Hence The Long March:1936 came into being. This book falls into three parts, namely, "The foundation stone laying ceremony: the Central Red Army amves in north Shaanxi", "The great manoeuvre: the 2nd and the 6th Army Corps' military expeditions in Hunan-Yunnan-Guizhou", "The great force-joining: the 1st, the 2nd and the 4th Front Red Army of the Chinese Workers and Peasants join forces . It has a total of 614 pieces of painting. In 2006, at the commemoration of the 7oth anniversary of the Long March victory, the Xinhua News Agency sent several delicate pages of The Red Ribbon on the Earth as news pictures to a variety of social media. At that time, they also felt regretful for the missing one year in the history of the Long March. However, tlus year at the commemoration of the 8oth anniversary of the Long March victory, they will no longer have such regrets.
