July 1st marks the 95th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China. CCTV runs a special coverage to mark the event.

In this part, the reporter revisited a village in east China's Anhui Province which pioneered a system that combined unified and decentralized management.

In 1978, some farmers in Xiaogang secretly signed an agreement to divide their People's Commune farmland into family plots -- an ingenious idea, albeit illegal at that time. Each plot was to be worked by a family. Their crops were then divided between the government, the collective and the families themselves.

This process resulted in bumper grain production and the initiative was soon rolled out across the country.
