Duan Mulihai's A Plum in the South of the Yangtze River

For more than 20 years, Mr. Duanmu has studied the art of painting plum blossoms assiduously and formed a unique style. After seeing Duan Mulihai's plum blossom picture, the famous painter Chen Dayu happily wrote an inscription: "Li Haige painted plum blossoms for domestic victory and won poetic harmony." Xiao Xian, a famous calligrapher, read Duan Mulihai's Plum Blossom Map and praised it as "a plum blossom in the south of the Yangtze River". Mr. Duanmu's works "Red Plum" and "Mo Mei" were exhibited at home and abroad and won prizes. His works, as gifts between the province and foreign governments, are particularly eye-catching. There are also many fine works collected by museums, art research institutions and international friends. The first day cover of Duan Mulihai Plum Blossom Stamps issued by the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications published six works, including "Winter has passed" and "Old Trees and New Flowers". CCTV, china national radio and China Radio International specially introduced his overseas plum blossom painting art and impressive achievements. Hubei TV also filmed a feature film "Plum Blossoms Dye Wan Li Spring" for him.

"Plum blossoms come from bitter cold", and Duan Mulihai has experienced twists and turns to achieve today's achievements. Although he left his hometown for many years, his heart was attached to Mulberry. In order to reward his later studies, he started to set up plum blossom awards in his alma mater and County No.1 Middle School from 1996, and it has been 14 so far. He used his autographed plum blossom map to reward the top students in arts and sciences and the class teacher in charge of the college entrance examination every year to inspire their plum blossom spirit, which is also a spur and encouragement to the teachers and students of his alma mater.
