In the early morning of July 28, 1976, a strong earthquake of magnitude 7.8 occurred in Tangshan, Hebei Province, and a century-old industrial city was instantly razed to the ground.
On July 28th, 2016, when General Secretary of the Supreme Leader visited Tangshan, he emphasized that although the earthquake 40 years ago destroyed a city, it did not destroy the strong will of Tangshan people and the national army and civilians.
With the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee and the support and help of the broad masses of soldiers and civilians throughout the country, the people of Tangshan devoted themselves to earthquake relief and post-disaster recovery and reconstruction with tenacious fighting spirit, and wrote an epic poem in the history of Chinese national struggle, which cast an earthquake-resistant spirit of forgetting public interests, sharing weal and woe, perseverance and courage.
Green hills, the Minjiang River Pentium. In the southwest corner of Yingxiu Town, Wenchuan, Sichuan, the earthquake site of Xuankou Middle School is quiet and solemn. The hour hand and minute hand on the commemorative dial are always fixed at 14: 28 on May 12, 2008.
The Wenchuan earthquake in Sichuan Province is an extremely tragic earthquake disaster in the earthquake history of China and even the world, which has caused great losses to people’s lives and property. The earthquake shifted mountains and rivers, but failed to shake the spiritual coordinates of the Chinese nation.
△ On May 15th, 2008, rescuers rescued the trapped people in Wenchuan County.
At the moment of life and death, teachers protect students with flesh and blood; The aftershock struck again, and the fire fighters who were forced to evacuate knelt down and cried, "Please let me save another one" … … In the face of sudden disasters, countless PLA soldiers, firefighters, medical personnel and volunteers from all over the country went to the disaster area not far from Wan Li, and some even gave their precious lives. In the face of disaster, the unyielding people broke out the cry of "Come on Wenchuan, Come on China" … …
"I believe that there is no hurdle that cannot be crossed!" After the earthquake, Yang Yungang and his wife run a "Bo ‘ai" restaurant, and when there are many tourists, they "earn more than 20,000 yuan every day".
Before the Spring Festival in 2018, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader came to Wenchuan County to visit and express condolences to the local people. In front of Yang Yungang’s restaurant, the supreme leader fried crispy meat and ground tofu pudding with everyone, and said with a smile, "It’s very hard to practice your arm strength. It’s really more and more exciting."
Inspired and inspired by the spirit of earthquake relief, the people of Wenchuan are indomitable and brave, and everyone’s life is like this mill bean flower. The more energetic it is, the happier it will be.

"Fighting against natural disasters is an eternal topic for human survival and development." The supreme leader pointed out that it is necessary to adhere to the principle of "prevention first, combining prevention with rescue", establish and improve various prevention and control management systems, and comprehensively enhance comprehensive disaster prevention capabilities.
In April 2018, the Emergency Management Department was established, and by 2019, an emergency management organization system with China characteristics in the new era has been initially formed.
By May 2020, the meteorological forecast and early warning of geological disasters in China has covered 30 provinces and 1660 counties, and gradually formed a distinctive system model of geological disaster prevention and mitigation.
The people of China, who have come from the disaster, are more aware of self-improvement, mutual help and respect for nature and science.
How difficult it is to prosper the country and make it strong. Looking back, we experienced many natural disasters, but the people of China never flinched. As General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized: "The Chinese nation has experienced many hardships in history, but it has never been crushed. Instead, it has become more and more frustrated, constantly growing in hardships and rising from hardships."
Vigorously carry forward the spirit of earthquake relief and overcome the difficulties and obstacles on the road ahead, we will certainly be able to create a Chinese dream worthy of the times, history and people’s achievements and realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
