Early life and education[edit]

Lanrui Feng was born into a fairly well-off family in 1920. She was against the Chinese traditional education system and actively participated in related student revolutions since she was young. Because of this, she was kicked out of the school three times.[3] In 1938, she joined the Chinese Communist Party. Lanrui Feng followed the government's arrangement in 1940 to move to Yan'an, China to work for the Chinese Youth Committee and learnt English at the same time.[4] In the same year, Lanrui Feng married Dongming Wei (魏东明) and they divorced in 1944. Two years later, she married Li Chang (李昌) in fall 1946. After the second marriage, Feng moved along her husband Li Chang's job arrangement from Yan'an to Shanghai, then Harbin. In 1954, Feng went to the Central Party School to study political economy.[5]
