On September 12, a seminar was held at the National University of Management to mark the release of the fifth volume of Xi Jinping's book on public administration in Chinese and English and Xi Jinping's new initiative on global governance, which he put forward on September 1 at the expanded meeting of the SCO Plus in Tianjin.

From the Russian side, the main guests of honor at the meeting were the First Deputy Chairperson of the Russian-Chinese Friendship Society Galina Kulikova and the Executive Secretary of the Russian-Chinese Friendship Society Zukhra Sultanova.

The Chinese side was represented at the seminar by Minister Counsellor of the Embassy of the People's Republic of China in the Russian Federation Zhao Wei, Attaché of the Embassy of the People's Republic of China in the Russian Federation Li Xuanye, Executive Director of China International Investment Corporation Huaming Li Zheng, correspondent of the Economic Newspaper of the People's Republic of China Li Chunhui and Deputy Head of the Moscow Branch of Renmin Huabao Publishing House Hu Zhentao.

On behalf of the State University of Management, the attendees were greeted by Vice-Rector Dmitry Bryukhanov, who noted that the State University of Management is pleased to once again host the participants of the round table within its walls.

"Our university has a long tradition of cooperation with China: back in 1986, GUU signed the first cooperation agreement with the Harbin Polytechnic Institute. As for Xi Jinping's initiatives, they require comprehensive consideration, which is what experts, including the participants of today's meeting, will do. And our university is ready to continue to be innovative, open to accepting new ideas, especially if it benefits the development of our great countries," concluded Dmitry Bryukhanov.

Next, Galina Kulikova took the floor and shared her personal impressions of the grand parade on Tiananmen Square in honor of the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese people's war of resistance against Japanese invaders and in World War II with the participation of 26 heads of foreign states and governments. Galina Veniaminovna, who has visited GUU for the first time, also noted the authority of the university in discussing the most pressing issues of Russian-Chinese relations.

In turn, the director of the Center for Socio-Economic and Political Research of China at the State University of Management (Center) Fanis Sharipov drew attention to the fact that the book "Xi Jinping on Public Administration" clearly demonstrates the consistent movement of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CC CPC) headed by Chairman Xi Jinping towards building a modernized socialist state in the context of a complex, constantly changing international situation. The expert paid special attention to the section devoted to issues of education, scientific and technological development and support for talents.

The new initiative of Xi Jinping on global governance was commented on by the leading research fellow of the Center Oleg Timofeev, who listed the main proposals of the Chairman of the CPC Central Committee on the sovereign equality of all countries, on the need to comply with international law, on compliance with the role and status of the UN based on the principle of multilateralism, etc.

Let us recall that earlier, the State University of Management hosted presentations of the fourth and third volumes of the book, and in 2024, a Chinese delegation visited the State University of Management to discuss cooperation opportunities.

Teachers and students of the Higher School of Design and Architecture of the Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University's Civil Engineering Institute took part in a charity project to improve the territory of the educational and historical reserve "Prince A. G. Gagarin's Estate "Kholomki"" in the Pskov Region. The ICI team carried out landscaping work on the territory of the Ascension Church in the village of Belskoye Ustye, making their contribution to preserving the cultural heritage of the region.

The following took part in the project from the Civil Engineering Institute: Director of the Higher School of Design and Architecture Margarita Perkova, teachers and staff of the Higher School of Design and Architecture ISI – Olga Vul, Elena Ladik, Mekhti Mezentsev, Andrey Zaitsev, as well as undergraduate students Angelina Sladkevich, Valeria Shirkhanova and Fyodor Vasiliev.

During the trip, the students began the first stage of landscaping – they carefully prepared the flowerbeds at the main entrance to the church, planted the first flowers and plants, creating the basis for the future beautiful design of the territory. Decorative compositions of stones were installed, various varieties of hydrangeas, junipers, roses, hostas, decorative wormwood, thyme and even remontant strawberries with bright red flowers were planted. The project for the improvement of the church territory was developed by graduate students Vera Rogaleva and Valeria Solodovnikova under the supervision of Margarita Perkova as part of the summer practice.

The Kholomki estate, located 15 kilometers from the city of Porkhov in the Pskov region, was founded in the early 20th century by Prince Andrei Grigorievich Gagarin, an outstanding scientist and the first rector of the St. Petersburg Polytechnic University. The main house of the estate was built according to the design of the famous architect Ivan Aleksandrovich Fomin in the neoclassical style. This mansion became a symbol of the "golden age" of Russian estates.

In 1914, during the First World War, a hospital for soldiers of the Siberian regiment was set up here. In 1918, the estate was transformed into the People's House named after V. I. Lenin, where theme nights and performances were held, gathering residents of the entire Porkhov district. Later, a House of Creativity was created in the estate, which became a place of attraction for Petrograd writers and artists. In the period from 1921 to 1922, famous writers and artists lived and worked here: M. V. Dobuzhinsky, M. M. Zoshchenko, E. I. Zamyatin, S. F. Khodasevich, K. I. Chukovsky, O. E. Mandelstam. After that, a sanatorium for pulmonary patients was opened in the estate. During the Great Patriotic War, the estate in Kholomki was located on captured territory and housed the headquarters of German pilots. By the middle of the 20th century, the estate had fallen into disrepair.

In 2000, the estate was transferred to the Polytechnic University for permanent ownership and received the status of a structural subdivision. Today, it is a unique educational and historical reserve that maintains a connection between the past and the present. Not far from the estate is the Church of the Ascension of the Lord, built in 1796 by Colonel Artemon Kozhin on his estate. Decades later, in the early 1860s, his son Pyotr Kozhin decided to build a new church in the style of early classicism with baroque elements according to the design of the St. Petersburg architect Shestakov.

Over its long history, the church has witnessed many significant events. In 1920, Prince A. G. Gagarin was buried here. Unfortunately, in the 1960s, the church was closed due to its emergency condition. Only in 2014 did large-scale restoration work begin.

On September 13, the creativity festival "Otkrytie" was held in the student campus on Lesnaya. The event, organized by the administration of the Student Club of the Directorate of Cultural Programs and Youth Creativity, became a pass to the future for the most active first-year students.

The festival featured a full range of cultural and leisure activities: two theaters, two choirs, two vocal studios, a pop-symphony orchestra, a dance studio, KVN and other groups. The studios and associations of the Student Club surprised everyone with so many things! Guests learned to draw music, got acquainted with rare photographic equipment, participated in a show, launched a drum from the musical show "Don't Sleep!" and received predictions for the academic year. The Polytechnic Student Theater held express trainings, and the People's University Theater "Glagol" invited behind the scenes. At all stations, students earned game currency, which could be exchanged for memorable gifts in the Student Club souvenir shop or saved for the big auction.

At the Otkrytie festival, we, together with the Ingenium orchestra, played games with guests and looked for talented polytechnic students — future members of our orchestra. The student club is a place to meet new friends and realize your talents, — shared 2nd-year student of the Institute of Biological Sciences and Biology Savva Ivanov.

The creative space of the festival was an interactive map of the annual events of the Student Club: for a couple of minutes, the Polytechnicians found themselves in the atmosphere of "ArtCamp" – a traditional trip for first-year students, the intellectual and entertaining game "FastBrain", Maslenitsa and the legendary project "Dances. Polytechnic". The Ecological Community "Regrin" and the United Student Council of Dormitories also joined the festival.

The atmosphere of the festival made a huge impression! A big gala concert prepared by the studios, many interactive activities and absolutely different decorations. It was especially nice to see how many kids are interested in creativity and immediately sign up for the groups they liked! – shared first-year student of the IPMET Maria Akimenko.

The center of attraction was the stage, where for two hours the participants of the Youth Choir "Polyhymnia", vocal studio "Polivoks", Chamber Choir, dance studio PolyDance, as well as finalists and participants of the project "Star of Polytech", artists of the musical show "Don't Sleep!" and beatbox master Ekaterina Pautova performed. The finale of the evening was the viewing of a cartoon in the open air.

On September 16, 1943, the city of Novorossiysk was completely liberated from the fascist invaders. This victory stopped the Wehrmacht's advance in the southern direction, forced them to leave the Caucasus and abandon attempts to reach the Baku oil wells, and also returned the waters of the Black, Azov and Caspian Seas under the full control of the Soviet fleet.

The German army captured Novorossiysk in early September 1942. The enemy had built over 300 defensive structures in the city, dug five lines of trenches, installed barbed wire and about 30 thousand mines. Naval mines were also installed at the entrance to the port, and guns and machine guns were placed on all the piers and moles. The city was considered impregnable from the sea.

The Battle of Novorossiysk, which lasted 225 days, began on February 4, 1943, with a landing in the area of the village of Stanichki under the command of Major Caesar Kunikov. Initially, the operation was planned as a diversionary strike, but it turned out to be a key stage of the battle. 400 paratroopers managed to capture a coastal bridgehead of no more than 30 square kilometers. The sea was behind them, the enemy was ahead, and there was nowhere to retreat. At first, the Red Army soldiers repelled 15-20 attacks per day. On the third day, Major Kunikov died. At the cost of incredible efforts, the bridgehead was held, reinforcements began to arrive, and provisions and ammunition were delivered from the air. This patch of land, which had constantly threatened the Nazis' right flank for more than seven months, went down in history under the name Malaya Zemlya.

It is interesting that the future General Secretary of the CPSU Leonid Brezhnev, a colonel in those years and head of the political department of the 18th Army, fought on Malaya Zemlya. He was wounded there and later received the Order of the Patriotic War, 1st degree, for his participation in the battles for the liberation of Novorossiysk.

The main assault began on September 10, 1943, with three groups of troops, one of which attacked from Malaya Zemlya, the second from the Tuapse Highway, and the third from the sea. The operation was supported from the air by 148 aircraft. Particularly heavy fighting took place for the area of the Krasny Oktyabr cement plant, the village of Turkish Garden, the power plant, the Proletary cement plant, and Sakharnaya Golova Mountain. Thanks to the courage and coordinated actions of the army and navy, Novorossiysk was completely cleared of the enemy by 10 a.m. on September 16.

The contribution of the sapper units to the victory is worth mentioning separately. It was they, under the leadership of engineer captain Kirill Turbaevsky, who made Malaya Zemlya impregnable, digging a trench in the rocky ground with titanic efforts and setting up hundreds of firing points and hidden observation posts. In September 1943, sappers, under heavy fire from the Germans from Sakharnaya Golova, established a crossing over Kamyshovskaya Gully, manually pouring a stone bridge along which Soviet tanks entered the city. And after the end of the fighting, they also freed the city from the enemy legacy in the form of tens of thousands of mines.

For their bravery in the battles for Novorossiysk, 19 units and formations of the Red Army received the honorary title of "Novorossiysk", 21 defenders of the city and Malaya Zemlya were awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union, hundreds of fighters received orders and medals. And on September 14, 1973, in honor of the 30th anniversary of liberation, Novorossiysk received the title of Hero City.

Eternal glory to the defenders of the Motherland!

The exhibition "Road of Life – Road of Labor" is located in the salon of the bus "Volzhanin-6270.06 Cityritm-15". It is dedicated to the heroic feat of civilian transport specialists on the Road of Life during the years of the Leningrad blockade. In the mobile museum complex you can see rare exhibits and even feel like a driver of the legendary "one and a half ton truck".

What is interesting about this bus? It was created on a voluntary basis, with their own hands. There is a proverb: if the mountain does not come to Mohammed, Mohammed goes to the mountain. In this case: if there is no opportunity to visit the museum yourself, then it will come to you. I think that this is very cool, – notes the director of the SPbPU History Museum Valery Klimov.

Military highways 101 and 102, also known as the "Road of Life", were serviced by various vehicles, including heavy trucks YaG-6. But the main symbol of the Ladoga ice road remained the legendary "one and a half" GAZ-AA.

The production of these vehicles began in 1932 at the Gorky Automobile Plant. Despite its relatively small weight (1,750 kg), the GAZ-AA could move on ice 20 cm thick. However, drivers often took risks and drove onto thinner ice, which often led to tragic consequences – many trucks fell through, taking their drivers and passengers with them. These vehicles were raised from the bottom of Lake Ladoga both during the war and in our time.

The "one-and-a-half" trucks transported evacuated residents of besieged Leningrad to the eastern shore of Lake Ladoga, and delivered back food, industrial goods, coal and raw materials for the enterprises operating in the besieged city.

In addition to trucks, about 100 buses, including the ZIS-8 model, worked on the Road of Life. Their production began in 1934 on the basis of the ZIS-5 truck ("Zakhar Ivanovich") – the flagship of Stalin's automobile industry. The design of the ZIS-8 was typical for buses of that time: a wooden frame with metal sheathing and a canvas roof impregnated with waterproof paint.

It is interesting that these cars were produced not only in Moscow, but also in Leningrad, and the Leningrad models were distinguished by their particular elegance: chrome parts and three-color paint.

Such a ZIS-8 bus is depicted on the body of the "Museobus", which symbolizes the connection of times. More information about the exploits of drivers and their cars can be found at the exhibition "Road of Life – Road of Labor".

This year, most of our first-year students are not from St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region, but from other regions. For them, the concepts of “September 8” and “the Leningrad Blockade” are something very distant. But for us, Leningraders, it is close. Of course, people should know about those difficult days of the blockade, they should remember, because there was no such battle in the history of all mankind. We call it the blockade of the city, but there were battles. The Battle of Leningrad lasted more than 800 days. It is hard to imagine that in the middle of the 20th century, people were dying of hunger. This is a terrible thing. History, unfortunately, does not teach, but it is worth learning from. History must be known, – shares Valery Klimov.

The participants of the exhibition emphasize that the excursion allowed them to take a new look at the Road of Life and significantly deepen their knowledge of this significant stage in the history of our city. Many people previously believed that the Road of Life was only a path across Lake Ladoga, but they had no idea that, in fact, the road was much longer and more dangerous.

The exhibition on the territory of the Polytechnic University can be visited by all employees and students of the university. The exhibition also interested residents of the Kalininsky district, who could not pass by and dropped in on a tour in the "Museobus".

The project "Museobus – Like a museum, only a bus!" is being implemented using a grant from the President of the Russian Federation for the development of civil society, provided by the Presidential Grants Fund. The museum bus will be on the territory of the Polytechnic (guest parking near the Church of the Intercession of the Holy Mother of God) on September 15 and 16. The exhibition will be open from 10:00 to 16:00.
