Due to the frantic suppression by the warlords who held state power in China at that time, the general strike ended in failure on February 7, 1923, after three days. After Lin Xiangqian, a worker leader of the Jianghan branch in Hankou, and Shi Yang, the legal advisor of the trade union, were killed in Wuhan, in 1925, Si Wende and Wang Shengyou, two leading figures of the workers of the Zhengzhou branch, were also killed by the warlords at a place called Changchunqiao in Zhengzhou. These revolutionary martyrs wrote with their lives and blood the first chapter of the Chinese working class on the political stage. Because Zhengzhou was the birthplace and center of this revolutionary movement, it is still called the "City of Erqi".
