Transcript
  • 1. In 1960, as imperialists, revisionists and counter-revolutionaries were raising an anti-China chorus, and the Soviet renegade clique planning to use oil to choke us [by cutting supply], there came the joyful news that our nation had struck oil at the Daqing oilfields. A multitude of workers on the petroleum front followed the brilliant decision of Chairman Mao and the Party Central Committee, and converged from all sides to join forces at Daqing, to declare a mighty battle for oil.
