On the one yuan RMB issued in 1960, there was a valiant female tractor driver. This character prototype is Liang Jun, the first female tractor driver in New China. She said: 'when I got on the tractor, I was very excited.'
Liang Jun, born in April 1930 in Mingshui, Heilongjiang Province. The first generation of female tractor drivers in New China established the first female tractor team and served as the team leader. After hard study, Liang Jun not only learned to drive a tractor, but also mastered tractor maintenance.
Liang Jun drove a tractor to fight in the northern wilderness, eating three meals a day, competing for solar terms, progress and production. After media reports, Liang Jun's fame spread rapidly. Influenced by her, many female comrades decided to learn to drive tractors and came to support the construction of the northern wilderness. Therefore, 12 girls from all directions of the motherland formed the first women's tractor team in New China, and Liang Jun was the first captain. At that time, the female tractor drivers driving tractors to work on the black land became an example for the people of the whole country to build new China.
In 1958, the domestic tractor was born. Liang Jun excitedly drove the domestic tractor, which appeared on the third set of RMB one yuan notes. Especially in recent years, after it was confirmed that the woman tractor driver on the RMB was her, Liang Jun once again became a household name. In response, Liang Jun said: "the female tractor drivers in the RMB take me as the prototype, which is the representative of women in New China. I hope I can become an example for young people so that they can inherit and carry forward the spirit of the Great Northern Wilderness. "
