A 40-year historical review of the foundation stone of the new Chinese chemical fiber industry

At this point, the annual output of new China's chemical fiber industry has exceeded the scale of one million tons. In 1983, the state abolished the issuance of tickets, and the millennium problem of people's "very few clothes" was completely solved.

Second, the 40-year historical experience of forming the cornerstone of new China's chemical fiber industry

Looking back over the past 40 years, here are some things to remember:

(1) The needs of people's clothing and national construction are the source of power for the development of chemical fiber industry

In the 1970s, Dacron muslin, commonly known as Dacron, was a beloved and scarce commodity. The article "My first" Dacron "shirt" written by Liu Xinge, a rural doctor, truly describes how people cherished chemical fiber clothing at that time. And that's something that people don't understand today.

The strong demand of people eager to wear "Dacron" clothing opened the prelude to the large-scale construction of new China's chemical fiber industry. The construction of six state-owned petroleum chemical fiber production bases has completely solved the basic contradiction of insufficient textile raw materials in China, and fully met the needs of people's clothing and special applications for chemical fiber.

People's clothing and national development of the function and performance of chemical fiber more diversified demand, giving China's chemical fiber industry more powerful development momentum.

(2) Chinese Communists uphold the will of "governing for the people" and make unremitting efforts to build the chemical fiber industry

Comrade Zeng Shan, the first minister of the textile industry of New China, pointed out in 1949 that the textile industry of New China is "very great and bright" because "politics is everything." Old China was a colonial and semi-colonial society whose politics "helped imperialism", and the textile industry and even all industries in old China could not really develop. New China is no longer under the control of imperialism, "the textile industry is completely in accordance with their own needs to build." 

"Very few clothing quilt" has been a thousand years of China's unsolved problem. The root cause is the shortage of textile raw materials. The solution is to develop the chemical fiber industry.

Qian Zhiguang old minister for the development of new China's chemical fiber industry struggled all his life. Qian Zhengying comrade is Qian minister's old comrade-in-arms, old friends, she praised Qian minister is "a real Communist." Qian Zhengying said: "There is a difference between Communists and communists. Anyone who joins the Party can be called a Communist. But only those who truly embody the ideal of Communism in their ideological realm can be called Communists."

It is this that Minister Qian regards the construction of a million tons of chemical fiber industry to completely solve the problem of dressing the Chinese people as his lifelong pursuit. To that end, he did everything he could. One morning in February 1981, the 81-year-old Qian rushed to the National Construction Commission before going to work, and fought for the restoration of Yizheng chemical fiber factory as soon as possible to Comrade Han Guang, who presided over the work. Comrade Han Guang was deeply moved to say: "In order to develop chemical fibers and solve the problem of people's clothing, money always works hard day and night, painstaking."

(3) Brave in innovation, Yizheng chemical fiber builders have set up a monument for the reform of state-owned enterprises

In the 40 years of reform and opening up, the builders of chemical fiber industry have emancipated their minds and dared to break through. They took the lead in getting rid of the shackles of the old mechanism of relying solely on state investment in construction, and pioneered the "Yizheng model" of combining the advantages of planning and market in construction, which became a milestone in the development history of state-owned enterprises.

(4) All the builders dedicated themselves to struggle, pioneering and innovative, selfless dedication

During the construction of the six state-owned chemical fiber production bases, hundreds of thousands of builders from textile, petroleum, chemical and infrastructure engineering and other industries carried forward the spirit of "revolution and hard work, hard to do the revolution", gave up small families, care for everyone, touching stories are countless:

Baoding Chemical fiber Factory is the "hen factory" of chemical fiber industry, which has transported a large number of talents for each new factory. Today, in Chenjiahu Village, Taipingdian Town, Xiangyang, Hubei Province, there are some elderly people over 80 years old living in the original site of the Hubei chemical fiber Factory. They were originally employees of the Baoding Chemical fiber Factory. In 1970, they came here from Baoding with their families to support the construction. The old people are also proud of living in the tent of reed mat, walking the muddy road of gluing rubber shoes down, carrying the equipment into the workshop, and building the factory in four years.
