Begging at the age of 6, herding cattle for the landlord at the age of 10, and being arrested at the age of 14 as a coolie in Yumen oil mine until the liberation of Yumen oil mine. /kloc-0 became a long-term drilling worker in new China in the spring of 1950, and successively served as driller and team leader./kloc-0 joined China, China in April of 1956. 1September, 958, the drilling team led by him set a monthly record in China at that time and won the title of steel drilling team. 1September, 959, Wang Jinxi was rated as a national model worker and attended the national model convention. 1March, 960, Wang Jinxi led a team from Yumen to Daqing to attend the petroleum conference. He once organized personnel to carry and install drilling rigs by "pulling shoulders by people", to lift water by "lifting buckets at the bottom of the basin" and to keep drilling. Despite his leg injury, he jumped into the mud pool and used his body to stir the mud to suppress the blowout. He was known as the "Iron Man". On April 1 1 day of the same year, the Combat Command called on all the combatants to learn from the Iron King Man Jinxi. Wang Jinxi has served as the captain of 1205 drilling team, the installation and construction team of drilling headquarters, the second drilling team, the deputy commander of drilling headquarters, the deputy director of Daqing Revolutionary Committee and the deputy head of Daqing Core Group of the Communist Party of China. 1964 12 attended the Third National People's Congress. 1April, 1969, attended the Ninth National Congress of the Communist Party of China, was elected as a member of the Central Committee, and was cordially received by President Mao Zedong and Premier Zhou Enlai. 1970165438+1October 15 died of stomach cancer at the age of 47. Man Jinxi, the iron king, is an outstanding model of Daqing people, a glorious image of the working class in China, an outstanding representative of the people, and a hero in the period of socialist construction. He has been working hard all his life to accelerate the development of China's oil industry. He not only created great material wealth, but also left us a precious spiritual wealth-the iron man spirit. Together with other great men and heroes, he was named "Top Ten People in China in a Hundred Years" in the 20th century.

Wang Jinxi, the "Iron Man", is a national famous model worker, one of the "Five Red Flags", an outstanding representative of Daqing people, and a pioneer fighter of the working class in China.

Wang Jinxi, 1923 was born in Jinchi Village, Yumen County, Gansu Province in September. At the age of 6, he began to herd cattle for the landlord, and once took his blind father to beg for food. 1938, 15 years old, working as a child laborer in Yumen oil mine. 1949 After Yumen was liberated, he worked as a driller and driller in the drilling team. /kloc-0 joined China * * * as the drilling team leader in April, 1956.

Wang Jinxi always works hard and has a spirit of striving for the best. 1July, 958, in order to speed up the construction of Yumen Oilfield, Wang Jinxi first put forward the goal of "setting a benchmark in Yumen Pass for several kilometers a month (drilling footage) and tens of thousands of years". In September of the same year, he led 1205 drilling team (then called 1262 drilling team) to fight hard and set a new record of 5009 meters per month. A set of high-quality fast drilling experience has also been explored, which has created a new way to improve drilling speed and quality. 1959 annual drilling footage 7 1 10,000 meters, the latest national record. One year's footage is equivalent to the sum of 42 years' drilling footage in old China. That year, Wang Jinxi was rated as a national model worker, attended the National Heroes' Congress with honor, and attended the National Day ceremony of the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC) 10.

Being oppressed in the old society and suffering from "poverty and backwardness" in the old China, Wang Jinxi has a high sense of ownership and a strong desire to quickly change its backward appearance. During his participation in the hero's meeting, he was very sad when he saw a car carrying an air bag on the street in Beijing because of the lack of oil. I feel guilty from the bottom of my heart when I think that no oil country has caused so much trouble. During the meeting, I couldn't sleep at night. I lay on the carpet of the hostel and thought about it all night. He said: "I don't believe that oil is buried in foreign countries." He is determined to work hard to change the backward face. It is said that Daqing Oilfield was discovered in the northeast of China. He was very happy, rubbing his hands, "I can't wait to punch a well" and applied to participate in the Daqing oil battle.

1in March, 1960, Wang Jinxi led 1205 drilling team to rush from Yumen to Daqing day and night. After arriving in Sarthou, Wang Jinxi got off the train, without food or shelter. When he found the dispatching room, he first asked, "Has our rig arrived yet? Where is our well? What is the highest drilling record here? " Knowing that the well site was near Majiayao, he immediately led a team to the well site on foot for two hours. He was very excited when he saw the endless prairie and the black land. He said: "Our country is a treasure. This time we fell into the ocean of oil. Let's open our arms and throw our hats into the Pacific Ocean. " That night, the team of 33 people lived in the stables and cowsheds of fellow villagers, and some slept in the wild. The next day, when I arrived at the train station, my team's drilling rig didn't arrive, so I helped other teams unload trucks for seven days in a row and was named the famous "first-time driving" voluntary loading and unloading team.

On April 2nd, 1960, Yumen drilling rig arrived in Sarthou. But at that time, there were very few cranes, cars and tractors, and half of them were not needed for a while. More than 60 tons of drilling equipment cannot be unloaded, transported and installed. Faced with many difficulties, Wang Jinxi said to everyone, "What should I do if I encounter difficulties? It's like a war. You can't back down. Conditional to go, no conditions to create conditions! " "Just, can't wait; Just do it without procrastination! " He led the whole team to disassemble the drilling rig into parts, unloaded the drilling rig and equipment from the train by "pulling shoulders" and transported them to Sa 55 well near Majiayao for installation. After working hard for three days and nights, Wang Jinxi did not leave the station and the well site. I left my luggage in my hometown and didn't sleep once. Seeing Wang Jinxi working so hard, Aunt Zhao, the landlord, said to the workers, "Your captain Wang is really an iron man!" The working group reported this situation to the leaders, and Comrade Yu, Minister of Petroleum Industry, strongly praised it. At the first technical forum in the oilfield, the battle leading group made a decision, calling on all oilfield workers to "learn from TieWang Man Jinxi, and everyone should be an iron man". Immediately after the meeting, the climax of learning from Iron Man was set off.

Wang Jinxi's culture is not high, but he loves reading Chairman Mao's books. When I came to Daqing from Yumen, I checked everything except Selected Works of Mao Zedong, which I got at a hero's party. He insisted on studying culture and Chairman Mao's works. He said, "If I learn a word, I will move a mountain. I'm going over the mountains to see Chairman Mao. " After the battle began, faced with many difficulties, the battle committee decided to learn from Chairman Mao's theory of practice and contradiction. Wang Jinxi responded to the call and studied the "Two Theories" seriously. Through the study, I realized: "this is difficult, that is difficult, and the country's lack of oil is the biggest difficulty;" This contradiction, that contradiction, and the lack of oil in the country are the most important contradictions. " Therefore, we are more confident in overcoming difficulties and act more consciously. Drilling was about to begin, but because the water pipeline was not connected at that time, there were few tankers and insufficient water supply. Wang Jinxi led the workers to break the ice to get water from the nearby blisters, and transported more than 50 tons of water with the washbasin, which ensured the official drilling of Well Sa 55 on April 14. During the whole drilling process, Wang Jinxi never left the well site. Hungry, bite a few frozen buns; Sleepy, wrapped in an old sheepskin coat, I hit a ton on the drill pipe. Thanks to the efforts of the whole team of workers, the first production well in the oilfield was drilled in only 5 days and 4 hours.

"I would rather live less than 20 years, and I will desperately win the big oil field!" This is what Wang Jinxi said more than once. He has been practicing his oath. After the first well was drilled, when Wang Jinxi took the command off the shelf, he was injured by a rolling drill pipe and fainted at that time. After waking up, I saw several workers around him to rescue him. Before the derrick was put down, I said, "I'm not made of mud. If I can't touch it, it will fall apart!" " "Say that finish, I stood up and continued to command shelve and move. After the leader knew it, he was sent to the hospital. He ran out of the hospital again and returned to Erjingchang (Well 2589) with crutches to direct drilling. When drilling to about 700 meters, a blowout suddenly occurred, and there was no barite powder for well killing at the well site. Through research, the method of adding cement is adopted to increase the proportion of mud and realize pressure blowout. When cement is added to the mud pit, it sinks to the bottom. Without a blender, Wang Jinxi threw away his crutches, jumped into the mud pit in desperation, and stirred the mud with his body. After the whole team of workers fought, the blowout was finally suppressed and the drilling rig and oil well were saved.

On April 29th, 1960, the campaign headquarters held a mobilization meeting to celebrate the May 1st International Labor Day and a swearing-in meeting for the oil battle in Sarthou Square. Wang Jinxi and other red flag bearers rode around the field wearing flowers and were cheered by the audience. After the meeting, the general assembly war officially started, and the activity of "learning from the iron man and being an iron man" was even more vigorous.

In the process of learning, competing, catching up, helping and surpassing, Wang Jinxi is modest and eager to learn, and supports and helps his brother drilling teams to catch up with themselves with noble communist style. At that time, rig parts were in short supply, so he selflessly supported other drilling teams with the drill bit he brought from Yumen and the urgently needed Kelly, square bushing and diesel flywheel, but he continued to repair the old ones himself. In the most tense days of oilfield development, we often take people to the brothers to learn advanced experience and use off-duty time to teach fast drilling technology. 1960 in early July, the combat leading group decided to promote Wang Jinxi as a drilling engineer. 1On July 28th, 960, the Combat Committee made a decision on learning the movement of "Wang, Ma, Duan, Xue and Zhu", and Wang Jinxi was named as one of the "Five Red Flags" in Daqing Campaign.

1961February, Wang Jinxi served as the captain of the second drilling team of the drilling consolidation headquarters, responsible for managing more than a dozen drilling teams. He often carries a dry food bag and rides a motorcycle he bought in Yumen, and goes deep into the well sites of various drilling teams to investigate and study, inspect and guide the work, and solve various practical problems such as production, life, technology and workers' thoughts for the grassroots. In order to drill a vertical well with a deviation of less than 3 degrees, he lived in the drilling team, studied and tested with drilling technicians and drilling workers, and finally found a set of methods for drilling a vertical well, and drilled a vertical well with a maximum deviation of only 0.5 degrees. The second drilling team is far away from the center of the oilfield, so it is inconvenient for workers to live. So he led the workers to reclaim land, burn bricks to build houses, set up shops, grain stores, post offices and health clinics, build staff dormitories, family houses and establish bases. In order to solve the problem of children attending school nearby, he personally became the principal and founded a "Peng Wei Primary School". This school later developed into "Iron Man Primary School" and "Iron Man Middle School".

1in the winter of 964, Wang Jinxi was elected as the representative of the Third National People's Congress. In February of the same year, he attended the Third National People's Congress. At the conference, his speech on "striving to achieve oil self-sufficiency" was warmly welcomed by all delegates. Premier Zhou Enlai cordially received him during the NPC meeting.

1965 Wang Jinxi served as deputy commander of drilling headquarters. He said, "I became a cadre and a roughneck." . Insist on going deep into the grassroots, participating in productive labor, and not being divorced from reality or the masses. He still maintains the old habit of "running wells" and goes to the scene to solve problems such as production, technology and logistics services. He maintained a hard and simple lifestyle and paid special attention to the life of workers' families. All staff members have personally checked in the housing, water supply, transportation, children's schooling and medical treatment for injuries, helping to solve difficulties and doing their best for the people. He said, "I have been herding cattle since I was a child. Cattle eat grass and horses eat feed. Cows enjoy the least and contribute the most. I am willing to be an old ox who will serve the people all my life. " In the face of honor, Wang Jinxi has always been modest and prudent. He said: "the achievements belong entirely to the party, and the gap can only be recorded in our little book."

During the "Cultural Revolution", Wang Jinxi was imprisoned in the "bullpen" and was brutally persecuted. In order to protect the production and construction of oil fields from losses and safeguard the interests of the Party and the people, he fought resolutely with Lin Biao and the Gang of Four, regardless of his personal safety. A handful of bad guys set up private courts, extorted confessions by torture, wrote notes and played tape recorders, forcing him to admit that "Daqing is red and black." Wang Jinxi said, "I don't know many words, but I still know so many. It is wishful thinking for me to admit that Daqing red flag is black. I don't admit it on the neck of the knife rest. " When the oil field accidents kept happening and there was a serious situation of "two drops and one liter", Wang Jinxi discussed with several old workers and wrote a letter to Premier Zhou, which reflected the situation of the oil field and provided a basis for Premier Zhou to instruct Daqing to "discuss the two issues simultaneously".

1in the spring of 969, Wang Jinxi was elected as the representative of the Party's Ninth National Congress. In April, he attended the ninth Party Congress and was elected as a member of the Central Committee. During the meeting, President Mao Zedong, accompanied by Premier Zhou, greeted him on the rostrum and shook hands with him cordially.

Wang Jinxi often said, "I will do one thing well in my life: develop China's oil industry rapidly." In order to realize this lifelong ideal and change the backward appearance of China's oil industry, Wang Jinxi suffered from severe stomach diseases and arthritis in the arduous struggle for more than 30 years. However, regardless of illness and personal life and death for a long time, he stubbornly worked for the party. /kloc-in the spring of 0/970, he went to Jianghan Oilfield to study condolences and traveled all over the well site. In April, I went west to Wan Li and went to Yumen to attend the on-site meeting of the national petroleum industry. On my way home, I had a stomach attack and was diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer by a hospital in Beijing. During his stay in hospital, Wang Jinxi actively cooperated with the medical staff and fought the disease with an iron will. When he was seriously ill, he was not thinking about individuals, small families, but more about Daqing, oil field production and construction, and employees and their families. He told the visiting cadres to go back to be employees. Family members and first-line drilling teams solve life difficulties. He also used his own money to entrust people to buy medicines for employees to kill bedbugs. In order to solve Wang Jinxi's difficulties, the organization gave him some subsidies. He recorded the accounts one by one, put them under his pillow and gave them to the organization before he died. I really do my best for the people and don't take a penny for myself.

1970165438+1October 15, finally, due to ineffective treatment, Comrade Wang Jinxi died at the age of 47.

Comrade Wang Jinxi occupies an important position in the history of Daqing's development and construction, and even in the history of China's petroleum industry. The "Iron Man Spirit" he left behind will always be the ideological driving force to inspire Daqing workers to move forward. Daqing people have been learning from Comrade Wang Jinxi, the "Iron Man"; Party organizations at all levels in Daqing always insist on "learning from the Iron Man and making new contributions" as a powerful ideological and political work. The CPC Central Committee highly affirmed Wang Jinxi. 1971On June 20th, the editorial of People's Daily said: "Comrade Wang Jinxi is an honest man commended by Chairman Mao and an example to carry forward the revolutionary style of Daqing Oilfield, such as" three old people "and" four strictness ".
