Writing and Premiere
On the 5th of March, 1963, a call to "Learn from Comrade Lei Feng" was made by then-Chairman of the Chinese Communist Party Mao Zedong and published in the People's Daily and the People's Liberation Army Daily. That morning, the Beijing Military Region Comrades-in-arms Literary Troupe held a meeting at which a song to be sung during the day's activities on Tiananmen Square was proposed. This proposal was unanimously agreed upon, and the troupe entrusted troupe members Sheng Mao and Hong Yuan to write it. Sheng Mao told Hong Yuan to have the song done by lunch.{{cite web |title=《学习雷锋好榜样》的诞生 |url=https://www.rmzxw.com.cn/c/2016-03-06/723460.shtml |website=www.rmzxw.com.cn |access-date=18 June 2025}}
The song was rehearsed on the journey to Tiananmen Square, where it was performed with accordion accompaniment. The song attracted a large crowd, which the troupe taught the song to.{{cite web |title="雷锋之歌"的来历 |url=http://ent.163.com/13/0306/00/8P8C54PE00032DGD.html |access-date=18 June 2025 |archive-date=11 August 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180811163106/http://ent.163.com/13/0306/00/8P8C54PE00032DGD.html |url-status=bot: unknown }}
