Spark That Ignites the Prairie Fire

“As a revolutionary sacred place, Jinggangshan welcomed over 28,000 troops from the Nanchang Uprising 90 years ago, leaving only over 800 people.

“Around 1997, more than eight private enterprises in Zhejiang and Jiangsu provinces alone proposed car manufacturing strategies. Others left themselves a way out, making car manufacturing a “big bait” while not giving up their original industries, hoping to gain government support and bank favor. Only Li Shufu was the most “crazy” and “foolish.” Once he mentioned car manufacturing, he put all his life’s worth on the line without any distractions.”
