Examples
“In 1964 a new policy emerged, which continued until about 1978 within the context of greater state support to agriculture. The origins of the policy go back to February 1960 in Hsi-yang county and the small village of Ta-chai. In that year Ch’en Yung-kuei, the production team leader of Ta-chai, reported to the Shansi Communist Party Congress how his village had raised crop yields to unprecedentedly high and stable levels through a new kind of team spirit and organization.”
“The term “shanzhai” also riffs off a popular Cultural Revolution era slogan about a model village, Dazhai, which has been changed to read: “In agriculture learn from Dazhai, in industry learn from Shanzhai.””
