    In 1976, I passed through Jiayin County in Heilongjiang and discovered that my painting had been copied onto a ten-meter-high tower that faced the Soviet Union. The original painting was acquired by the National Art Museum. Whether in terms of its publication or its acquisition by the museum, I never received a cent in recompense for this work.
