“Happy commune” enriches villagers’ spiritual life; characteristic industries build a road toward common prosperity; environmental improvement makes the village tidy and neat; community governance satisfies all villagers; good manners serve as villagers’ heart-to-heart bridge. With a developed road network, Hejia Village of Haiyan is now beautiful and happy. Based on the standards of “Five Stars”, this village has been constructed into a beautiful picture with prosperous industries, beautiful environment, fine tradition, safe social environment and rich people.

The star of Party building: Party building leads development and Party members serve as good examples.

On the wall of the “Happy Commune” of Hejia Village, there is a map showing the village has four service grids and 77 Party member households. The village has established an integrated service system “village-grid-Party member household-villager group-villager” and a Wechat “E Matrix” that realizes the rapid transfer of information of serving the people.

Party member households take the lead in participating in the volunteer service in the Covid-19 control to ensure all coming from middle and high-risk regions observe the regulations against the covid-19. Party members are responsible for villagers and villagers take Party members as examples. Building a happy Hejia is a target of all villagers.
