On February 10, 1964, People’s Daily published an article called “The Road of Dazhai” (大寨之路) about the advanced deeds of the people of Dazhai, a village in Shanxi. An editorial titled “A Good Model for Building Mountain Areas With Revolutionary Spirit” called on the whole country to learn the revolutionary spirit of the Dazhai people. The slogan became “In industry, learn from Daqing. In agriculture, learn from Dazhai.”
