钟英是新疆维吾尔自治区首轮修志工作的创始人之一,首任新疆维吾尔自治区地方志编纂委员会专职副主任。他在任期间,新疆维吾尔自治区新方志编修事业从无到有,不断壮大,结出硕果,其中不乏创业者的艰辛与智慧,从中反映出边疆民族地区修志的独特风采。创业者的漫漫求索之路也为内地省份修志工作提供了可资借鉴的宝贵经验。前不久,本刊记者对钟英进行了采访。——编者 Zhong Ying is one of the founders of the first round of revision work in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region and the first full-time deputy director of the local history compilation committee of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. During his tenure, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, the new local Chi editing business from scratch, continue to grow and bear fruit, many of whom are the hardships and wisdom of entrepreneurs, reflecting the unique style of the Chi-Min Chi ethnic minority areas. The long way to find the entrepreneurial path also provides a valuable experience for the provinces in the province Chi Chi can learn from. Not long ago, correspondents interviewed Zhong Ying. --editor
