Years later, when the nation's most powerful technologies astonished the world, a reporter interviewed Xiao Peng: “Chief Engineer Xiao, I hear all this began when you went into the mountains to become a forest ranger?”

Xiao Peng smiled modestly. “Don't make things up. I really was just a mountain ranger in the Greater Khingan Range...”
