In 1925 Peng Pai left Guangzhou to resume his work to organize peasants to form Peasant Associations in Guangdong province. Mao Ze-dong took over from Peng Pai and became the second director of the Institute. Mao's brother Mao Zemin (Mao Tse-min) was one his students, who included a large percentage of Hunanese probably recruited by Mao's provincial Party committee. In September 1925 Mao Zedong took the whole student body of the Peasant Movement Training Institute on a two-week visit to Haifeng, where they were given lectures by Peng Pai and shown an agrarian revolution in action.
