Шаблон:Infobox Chinese Daqing (Шаблон:Zh) is a prefecture-level city in the west of Heilongjiang province, People's Republic of China. The name literally means "Great Celebration" and refers to the tenth anniversary of the PRC.[1]Шаблон:Rp Daqing is known as the "Oil Capital of China" and has experienced a phenomenal boom since oil was discovered at the Daqing Oil Field in 1959.[2]
Its population was 2,781,562 as of the 2020 census, of whom 1,574,389 lived in the built-up (or metro) area in four out of the total of five urban districts: Sartu, Longfeng, Ranghulu and Honggang.
History
The region now known as Daqing Prefecture was a reasonably insignificant place until the Qing dynasty, known only as an unsettled hunting ground of Dörbet Oirat tribes due to its wetland and prairies. The region began to grow slightly after the Russian Empire constructed the Chinese Eastern Railway (KVZhD) through the area in 1898.[3] The railway has a station at Sartu in today's Sartu District. It was not until 1959 that oil was discovered in the region as part of the large scale oil exploration put into motion across the Northeast China Plain.[2]
The Daqing oilfield was discovered in the late 1950s, and drilling began in 1958. A town with the same name was founded in 1959 to house workers extracting oil and gas from the oilfield and to host industries which could take advantage of the energy and petrochemicals, shortly before the 10th anniversary of the founding of the PRC. The successful construction of the Daqing oil field despite harsh weather conditions and supply limitations became a model held up by the Party as an example during subsequent industrialization campaigns.[4]Шаблон:Rp The project also delivered critical economic benefits because without the production of the Daqing oil field, crude oil would have been severely limited after the Soviet Union cut off supplies as a result of the Sino-Soviet split.[4]Шаблон:Rp
Original plans for Daqing included the development of a "new socialist mining district" (rather than a city) with families in which the husband would work in industry and the wife would work in agriculture.[5]Шаблон:Rp
The name Daqing literally means "Great Celebration". On 26 May 1960, Anda City was established at former Anda town (today's Anda City in Suihua prefecture), administering Daqing oilfield area. Five months later, the administrative organs of the oilfield relocated in Sartu. On 23 June 1964, the city was established Anda special administrative region, with Anda county administering its surrounding area.
The first two years of the Cultural Revolution resulted in major disruptions to China's petroleum industry and an oil shortage by 1967.[1]Шаблон:Rp In March of that year, the People's Liberation Army was called to Daqing to maintain order so that oil production could proceed.[1]Шаблон:Rp This made Daqing one of the first places brought under military control during the Cultural Revolution.[1]Шаблон:Rp In May 1968, the Daqing Revolutionary Committee was established.[1]Шаблон:Rp Iron Man Wang Jinxi became its vice director.[1]Шаблон:Rp The oil field continued to be a major driver of economic growth during the chaotic Cultural Revolution period.[1]Шаблон:Rp
The Daqing Oil District became a city in 1980.[1]Шаблон:Rp Its first master plan set a goal of growing Daqing into "a new industrial city" through a development strategy of "relative dispersion with several modest concentrations.[1]Шаблон:Rp Academic Hou Li summarizes that as a result "new settlements became much more concerntrated. The three existing towns, thirty-four central villages, and 260 settlement points were restructured into six workers' towns, twenty-four central villages, and twenty-seven resident villages."[1]Шаблон:Rp
The city revised its master plan in 1989, setting a new goal of building an oil city centered in Saertu, Dongfeng, and Longfeng.[1]Шаблон:Rp This plan shifted Daqing's urban planning focus away from decentralization to centralization.[1]Шаблон:Rp
In 1990, the city received the top recognition in the Heilongjiang Province Science and Technology Awards.[1]Шаблон:Rp In 1994, its population reached one million.[1]Шаблон:Rp After the mid-1990s, urban expansion in Saertu was halted in order to provide more space for oil production.[1]Шаблон:Rp Urban construction was instead transferred to East Town and West Town areas.[1]Шаблон:Rp
Since its foundation, Daqing has been advocated as a model of good practice in industry and healthcare by the Chinese government.
Learn from Daqing in industry
The fact that Mao Zedong promulgated his Supreme Directive, Learn from Daqing in Industry, in the 1960s reflects how important a role Daqing has historically played in industry in China.[6] Learn from Daqing in industry (Шаблон:Zh) was a slogan during the Cultural Revolution telling the people to use the city as an example for industrial production.[6][7]
The film Entrepreneurial Pioneers (Шаблон:Lang), made in the early 1970s, is a literary rendition of the history of Daqing. During the Mao era, Daqing's agricultural counterpart was Dazhai, a village in the hilly Xiyang county, Shanxi Province, for which Chairman Mao issued the directive In agriculture, learn from Dazhai, also in the 1960s.[8]
Administrative divisions
Daqing is divided into 9 county-level divisions: 5 districts, 3 counties and 1 autonomous county.

"Daqing Spirit, Daqing People" was the title of an April 20, 1964 article in People's Daily which extolled the success of Daqing oil field workers.[1]Шаблон:Rp The most influential of many articles praising Daqing that appeared in state media around that time, "Daqing Spirit, Daqing People" was the first text to compare Daqing to Yan'an, the revolutionary base area where the Communist Party re-grouped following the Long March before going on to win the Chinese Civil War.[1]Шаблон:Rp
