Zhao Xuewen's hometown is located in a mountain cricket in Neijiang City, Sichuan Province. Children growing up in the mountains are always curious about the world on the side of the mountain.

"At that time, we seemed to have an endless mountain road, but every step in school was extremely firm." Zhao Xuewen recalled.

After graduating from high school, Zhao Xuewen became a "rare" intellectual in his hometown. He was introduced to go to the food station to make an accountant. The salary was not high, but he was enough to support his family. In the past few years, the countryside began to replace kerosene lamps with electric lights, and "electrician" became a fragrant. In 1982, under the leadership of the master, Zhao Xuewen, who was smart and learned, became an electrician with a wading mountain and installation of power facilities.
