Character experience

Wu Yunduo is a native of Liwan village, Bolin Town, Hanyang County, Wuhan City, Hubei Province.

On January 17, 1917, Wu Yunduo was born into the family of a small employee in Anyuan coal mine, Pingxiang City, Jiangxi Province. Although the family was poor, the father, who wanted his son to be a success, still lived frugally and insisted on sending his children to school.

In 1923, when Wu Yunduo was 6 years old, he entered the primary school for the children of workers in the Eastern District of the coal mine, joined the children's League and served as a propagandist. Because there are many machines and equipment in the coal mine, Wu Yunduo had a strong interest in machinery when he was young. The huge flywheel of the air compressor in the wind house made him realize the power of machinery. His biggest dream was to be a machine worker.

In 1931, Wu Yunduo moved with his family to Huangshi, Hubei Province, where he worked as an apprentice in a coal mine. In order to understand the working principle of the machine, Wu Yunduo cleaned up a small attic in the workshop during the interval of heavy work, and used it as a "study" and "laboratory". He turned over the broken wooden box containing the machine as a desk, and used his frugal money to buy some industrial books to learn mechanical knowledge.

After the outbreak of the Anti Japanese War, the Communist Party of China held Anti Japanese War lectures in coal mines. Wu Yunduo attended the lectures every day, and his family became a meeting place for workers. He also took part in the work of the distribution station of the party's Xinhua daily and posted the newspaper every day after work. The owner of the mine told the police to arrest him, and Wu Yunduo resolutely joined the New Fourth Army.

In May 1939, Wu Yunduo joined the Communist Party of China and began to engage in underground organization activities. Later, he was sent to the repair center of the New Fourth Army headquarters in Yunling, Southern Anhui, and began his military career in the thatched shed of the farmhouse. During the 10 years of revolutionary war, Wu Yunduo followed the Arsenal from southern Anhui to northern Jiangsu, then to Huainan, then to Huaiyin and Yimeng Mountains, and then crossed the sea to Dalian in the northeast. During the hard revolutionary war years, Wu Yunduo, with seven apprentices, produced 600000 bullets for the front line every year. In order to develop bullets, he was seriously injured four times, with more than 200 explosive wounds all over his body, four fingers broken, his left eye blind, and one leg broken. He is known as "Paul Kochakin of China".

In December 1949, the organization sent Wu Yunduo to the Soviet Union for eye treatment. In Moscow, the wife of Ostrowski, the author of how steel is made, heard Wu Yunduo's heroic deeds and went to the hospital to see him. After careful treatment, some of Wu Yunduo's eyesight recovered and he returned to China in 1950.

In 1950, Wu Yunduo attended the May Day ceremony in Moscow, Russia, and met Stalin, the great leader of the Soviet people, in red square. After returning to China, he once served as the director of Zhuzhou ordnance factory in Hunan Province and deputy director of the ordnance Bureau of the Ministry of heavy industry of Central South Bureau.

In October 1951, Wu Yunduo was awarded the title of national model worker by the Government Affairs Council of the Central People's government and the all China Federation of trade unions, and he was praised as "Paul Kochakin" of China. He also attended the National Day ceremony and met chairman Mao Zedong of the people's Republic of China on Tiananmen Square.

In 1952, Wu Yunduo published his autobiographical novel "dedicate everything to the party". After its publication, the book aroused great repercussions in the whole country, with a total of more than 7 million copies published. It has been translated into Russian, Ukrainian, Mongolian, Korean, Japanese and English, and has been distributed in many countries.

From 1953 to 1955, Wu Yunduo went to the Soviet Union to study for two years.

After returning to China, Wu Yunduo served as director of the first Research Institute of the Ministry of heavy industry, and in 1963 served as deputy chief engineer of the Mechanical Research Institute of the Ministry of machinery.

During the "Cultural Revolution", Wu Yunduo was subjected to unfair treatment, such as fighting in the Congress, criticizing in the small meeting, wandering in the street, house hunting, living in a cowshed, and devolving labor. The biggest charge was "writing books against the party", which made him suffer mental torture and physical devastation.

Due to the disability and chronic disease left by the revolutionary war, Comrade Wu Yunduo was hospitalized for a long time after the "Cultural Revolution".

In 1978, Wu Yunduo was elected executive member at the Seventh Congress of the all China Federation of trade unions. Later, he served as vice president of the Academy of Sciences of the Ministry of machinery.

On May 2, 1991, Wu Yunduo died in Beijing at the age of 74.

Main contributions

In September 1938, Wu Yunduo went to Wannan base, joined the New Fourth Army, and worked in the repair Institute of the army headquarters. In the revolutionary team, Wu Yunduo finished the middle school curriculum and studied the theory of mechanical manufacturing. He successively served as a technician, deputy factory director and factory director in the ordnance factory of the second division of the New Fourth Army and the ordnance factory of the New Fourth Army. At that time, the conditions were very difficult, with no information and no materials. In order to supply the military supplies in the front, Wu Yunduo resolutely shouldered the heavy burden. In zhanmiao, the main hall was used as a production workshop, and the auxiliary hall as a gun repair factory. With simple and crude equipment, grenades and launchers with high lethality were developed. It played a role in destroying the enemy in the Anti Japanese battlefield. In order to develop bullets, under the heavy blockade of the enemy, the raw materials of gunpowder could not be found, so Wu Yunduo had to find substitutes. Try to scrape off the head of the red head match and soak it with alcohol to make gunpowder. If you don't have alcohol, use old Shaojiu
