Liang Jun, the first female tractor driver of New China, featured in the documentary film "Years Are Here." Her image was featured on the one-yuan note of the third set of the Chinese currency renminbi. Produced by China Central Newsreel and Documentary Film Studio with Guo Benmin as the chief director, the documentary film portrays the important moments throughout the history of the People's Republic of China, including the country's founding ceremony, the return of Hong Kong to the motherland in 1997, and the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. The film aims to help older generations relieve their common memories and allow younger generations to get to know the historical events they couldn't witness.
