Zhan Hong Tu

In the early autumn of 1963, Jijiazhuang on the border of Hebei and Tianjin suffered a major flood that had never happened in a century. The autumn crops that were about to mature were struggling in water more than one meter deep. The villages under the embankment were also likely to be submerged. The safety of people's lives and property was seriously threatened. Brigade Secretary Ding Zhenhong (played by Lu Su) led party members and cadres to fight day and night on the embankment. At this time, the county party committee decided to blow up the embankment in the Jijiazhuang embankment section to divert floods to ensure the safety of the Jinpu Railway and millions of people in Tianjin City. After hearing this, the situation exploded. Captain Dayong (played by Cunli) and others firmly opposed it, and the bad guy Wang Mao (played by Sun Shulin) also added fuel to the fire. However, Lao Gen (played by Cai Songling), Ding Shenghe (played by Liu Shilong) and others stood firmly on Ding Zhenhong's side, supporting the county committee's decision and determined to sacrifice their small family to protect everyone. Ding Zhenhong led the entire village to finally defeat the flood and achieve a bumper agricultural harvest that year. After the fall, Chairman Mao issued the great instruction that "the Haihe River must be radically cured"...
