Zhou Hui
Zhou Hui (Chinese: 周惠) (1918 – November 18, 2004) was a People's Republic of China politician. He was born in Guannan County, Jiangsu Province. His birth name was Hui Jue (Chinese: 惠珏). He was the younger brother of Hui Yuyu, two-time governor and CPPCC Committee Chairman of Jiangsu Province. He changed his name in 1938, when he joined the Communist Party of China and went to Yan'an, using his mother's surname as his own. He was Communist Party of China Committee Secretary of Hunan Province and Inner Mongolia. At the Lushan Conference in Jiangxi Province in 1959, Zhou Hui and his predecessor in Hunan, Zhou Xiaozhou, along with Huang Kecheng and Zhang Wentian, gave their support to Peng Dehuai. Unlike Zhou Xiaozhou, Huang and Zhang, Mao did not punish Zhou Hui for his support of Peng.
