Here are some pictures from the Iron Man Museum in the heart of Daqing. This man Wan JianXi was the leading force in the pursuit to drill oil in northern China so that China could be oil-independent. He was both an activist and a worker with the people. Talk about inspiration! Wan JianXi was born to a poor family, he had to beg for food, endured child labour and then lead by example the strongest drilling team in northern China. He also developed some oil drilling techniques and studied the doctrines of Chairman Mao. He was of the people for the people. Wan JianXi is thought to be both the spirit and the hero of Daqing citizens.
