Comrade Nguyen Van Cu was born on July 9, 1912, in Phu Khe village, Nghia Lap commune, Dong Ngan district, Tu Son prefecture (now Phu Khe ward, Bac Ninh province) into a family with a tradition of patriotism.

He embraced the revolutionary cause at an early age, joining revolutionary activities in his youth before becoming a member of the Indochinese Communist Party.

In March 1938, at the age of just 26, Nguyen Van Cu was elected General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Indochinese Communist Party. During his tenure, he made significant contributions to strengthening the Party's organizational structure, safeguarding its revolutionary line, and reinforcing unity and solidarity within both the Party and the revolutionary movement.
