At the time of the Tangshan earthquake, it was exactly when the "Gang of Four" was rampant. Therefore, there was basically no open reporting on the truth of this extremely rare disaster. However, there were a large number of internal reference reports. Although these did not reach a wide audience, they are a batch of very precious historical materials. In addition, Xinhua News Agency reporters also accumulated a large amount of first-hand material during their on-site interviews. These first-hand materials are very precious and beneficial for young people today and future generations to understand this rare earthquake in history.
