Novel. While Zhou Libo created a large number of classic works reflecting rural reform and agricultural cooperative movement, he also expanded his vision to the industrial construction of New China. Between 1951 and 1954, he went to Shougang three times to experience life and created the pioneering work of China's contemporary industrial-themed novel "Molten Iron Flowing". The book is nearly 180,000 words, describing the story of how the workers, under the leadership of the party organization and the military control committee, defeated the traitorous spy foreman and repaired the blast furnace to resume production after the liberation of Shigang in November 1948. It truly reflects how we took over the factory in the early days of liberation and how the party led the workers to fight against various enemies in the process of resuming enterprise production.
