1976, Jiangxi Province once again put the construction of Nanchang Uprising Memorial Tower on the agenda, and collected design schemes in Jiangxi Province. The "tower and flag gun" scheme designed by Wo Zuquan and several other staff working in Jiangxi Architectural Design Institute has been widely recognized. Wo Zuquan, together with five other people, was transferred to the "August 1st Nanchang Uprising Memorial Tower Construction Headquarters" and stationed in the former site of Zhu De Military Officers Education Corps, and began the final design and integration of the memorial tower. At that time, the address of the tower was still in Laofushan. Later, many experts and citizens suggested that the site selection was inappropriate, because at traffic intersections, the memorial tower would attract the attention of drivers and pedestrians and affect traffic. Therefore, the address was changed to Bayi Square, that is, the central axis of Jiangxi Provincial Museum in the south and the podium building in the north. In August, kloc-0/977 officially broke ground.
