Features: This is a heroic epic of humanity conquering nature. In the 1960s, the people of Lin County in the Taihang Mountains of Central China, under the wise leadership of the Communist Party of China, relied on collective strength to overcome harsh conditions, build dams, divert the Zhang River's water into Lin County, and construct the "Red Flag Canal" through self-reliance and hard work. This transformed the county's once drought-stricken and impoverished landscape. The author, with passion and poetic prose, vividly portrays a group of leaders led by the county party secretary Mu Yi and the deputy county magistrate Ma Dapeng, who, for the Party's principles and the people's fundamental interests, braved difficulties, dared to think and act, pursued science and realism, and remained unshaken by storms and undaunted by towering mountains. The work reflects the spirit and intelligence of the masses and technicians, such as Shi Gong, Dong Yumei, Li Fengyun, and Wu Jintai, who, through their hard work and sacrifice, overcame countless challenges to create one miracle after another, becoming the backbone of rural socialist spiritual and material civilization construction. The text is exquisite, the plot ingenious and unique, featuring grand scenes of damming rivers and mountains, as well as profound psychological portrayals of characters. It is a historical recreation of the Red Flag Canal project and a masterpiece that condenses the traditional character of the Chinese nation. This book is in stock and has been primarily distributed to chain stores and a few select retailers. We urge all stores to capitalize on the current societal trend of learning from the Red Flag Canal spirit, promote the book effectively, place targeted orders, and display it prominently in store.
