Mayitas in Xinjiang was once a rare blizzard disaster area in China, with an average of more than 150 days of strong winds above level 8 each year. It was known as the "devil wind area". More than 400,000 people of all ethnic groups in Tacheng fought desperately against the wind demon all year round. In order to rescue people from wind and snow disasters, the Maitas Rescue Base came into being. An ethnic integration team composed of 20 people from 7 ethnic groups are stationed in the ice and snow all year round, giving hope of life to desperate people.
Xiao Shan, the deputy captain of the rescue base, resigned because his fiancée died in the wind and snow disaster. He stayed dormant in Laofengkou for ten years and finally conquered the wind and snow disaster that was rare in a century and completed his self-salvation.
Over the years, Xinjiang has attached great importance to the management of the old wind outlet of Mayitas and vigorously promoted the "wind and snow prevention" project and the "wind power generation" project. The old wind outlet has changed from a famous "wind and snow disaster area" to a famous "wind and snow treasure land". Today, the people of all ethnic groups in Mayitas have long lived a happy life of peace and contentment.
