The mainland's record of oil first appeared in the Song Dynasty, and if you want to find verifiable information, you can open Shen Kuo's "Mengxi Record", which records the word "oil".
The ancients also knew that the mainland is rich in mineral resources, but due to the difficulty of exploitation, most of the oil depends on imports, when the development of China's industry is monopolized by Western countries, the industrialization progress of the mainland is more and more difficult, the country in order to ensure the normal operation of the machine, every year to use foreign currency to buy a large amount of oil from the West, so in that era, oil has become the most precious thing in people's consciousness.

At that time, in the era of self-sufficiency and abundant food and clothing, the leaders of the mainland found that only by producing oil themselves could they not be led by the nose of Western countries, and they could also meet the living needs of Chinese and save a lot of foreign currency.
As a result, a number of oil workers have sprung up all over the country, dedicating their strength to the production of national oil, including our protagonist "Wang Jinxi", who was well known to the people of the whole country because of the title of "Iron Man".
"Iron Man" Wang Jinxi was born in 1923 in Yumen, Gansu Province, to a poor family, so his parents' wish was to let their children live happily and peacefully in the chaos of war.
When Wang Jinxi was 15 years old, he came to the oil mine to work for the family's livelihood, and encountered many difficulties during the period, but under the correct guidance of the master, Wang Jinxi developed a character that was not afraid of hardship and hard work, laying the foundation for him to become an "iron man" in the future.
With the founding of New China, Wang Jinxi used his own efforts to enter the drilling team, pay attention to unity in work and colleagues, always rush to the front in the work, never complain, under the influence of positive energy, Wang Jinxi officially joined the party in 1956.
Since then, Wang Jinxi's life has undergone a new change, he has played an exemplary and leading role in his work, and was soon promoted to captain, and also broke the new record of drilling with his teammates within a month, and Wang Jinxi also won the title of "Drilling General".
In 1960, in order to enhance the enthusiasm of oil workers, the state organized the Northeast Petroleum Conference, Wang Jinxi of course did not want to miss this opportunity, he led the 1205 drilling team to Dasartu, just got off the car Wang Jinxi asked: "Where is the well machine?" Where is the well located? Can you show me the previous drilling records",
As for the food and shelter arranged for the battle, he did not put his mind at ease at all. In the absence of transportation equipment, Wang Jinxi organized the squad of personnel to use the original transportation modes such as rolling and pulling to transport the drilling rig to the drilling ground in 4 days.

When the first well successfully spewed out oil, Wang Jinxi and his teammates laughed happily, but when the second well was hit, Wang Jinxi and his teammates encountered the problem of blowout, and Wang Jinxi used his sick body as a mixer to control the blowout, so his move made the people at the scene praise him and excitedly called him "Iron Man" Wang Jinxi.
In 1963, the production of crude oil in Daqing Oilfield reached 6 million tons, which was enough to meet the basic needs of mainland oil, and just when Wang Jinxi and his teammates wanted to show their ambitions again, he was diagnosed with advanced stomach cancer and died on November 15, 1970 at the age of 47.
Wang Jinxi's dedication did not disappear, but was passed on to his children, his wife Wang Yueying is great, with two sons and three daughters living alone, the eldest son Wang Yueping was born in 1952, at the age of eight, he followed Wang Jinxi to the oil well, has a strong interest in drilling oil.
And completely inherited wang Jinxi's "iron man" spirit of not being afraid of hardship, because he was injured when drilling a well, he had to retreat to the second line and serve as the deputy manager of Daqing Oilfield Co., Ltd.

Wang Jinxi's eldest queen Ying inherited her father's mantle and became a worker at the Daqing Oilfield Drilling Company; the second son, Wang Yuefu, was clever and clever from an early age, surpassing his peers in drilling technology, so he was recommended by his superiors to study petroleum theory in the junior college class of Changchun Institute of Posts and Telecommunications.
After graduation, he did not work in the front line of drilling, but came to work in the propaganda department, using the way of propaganda to continue to inherit the spirit of his father's "iron man". After graduating from high school, Queen Yuezhen joined the army, and after being demobilized, she chose a military school to become a teacher
The youngest daughter Wang Yueqin was a child who was not favored by God, and she was born with paralysis, and the poor living conditions at that time made Wang Yueqin's body develop into a deformity, although she had worked as a waiter at the liquefied gas station, but because of the root of the disease that fell from childhood, she died of illness in her prime.
Although Wang Jinxi left us, his simple words inspired the oil workers to continue to move forward. Although his children have retired, they have carried forward the spirit of "Iron Man" in their posts, and I believe that their descendants will continue to pass on the spirit of "Iron Man".
