【Analysis】On September 26, 1959, Songji Well No. 3 in Heilongjiang Province joyfully spouted industrial oil flows, awakening the "black gold" that had slumbered for thousands of years beneath the vast wilderness of Northeast China, ushering in the curtain of China's energy construction. At the time, it was the grand celebration year of the 10th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the oilfield was given a resounding name—“Daqing.” From the discovery of the oilfield to the start of the large-scale campaign in 1960, under extremely difficult conditions, petroleum workers represented by the "Iron Man" Wang Jinxi shouted, "Facing the sandstorms, the ground is covered with ice and snow; heading north for the campaign, hardship is nothing!" With the spirit of self-reliance and hard struggle, they explored and confirmed a super-large oilfield covering more than 860 square kilometers in just 3 years, built an annual crude oil production capacity of 5 million tons, and produced a cumulative total of 11.662 million tons of crude oil, accounting for 51.3% of the national crude oil production during the same period. By the end of 1963, Daqing had developed an oilfield covering 146 square kilometers, built an annual crude oil production capacity of more than 6 million tons, and produced 4.5 million tons of crude oil that year, playing a decisive role in achieving basic self-sufficiency in oil for the country. In December 1963, the fourth session of the Second National People's Congress was convened, and Premier Zhou Enlai solemnly announced to the world: "Due to the discovery and construction of the Daqing oilfield, the oil needed for economic construction, national defense, and the people's needs in our country, which was mostly imported in the past, is now basically self-sufficient in terms of both quantity and variety."
