The year 2024 marks the 70th anniversary of the opening of the Sichuan-Tibet highway and Qinghai-Tibet highway.

The long non-fiction literary work Tianlu - Mu Shengzhong was published at an opportune time. It offers an emotional recounting of the experiences of General Mu Shengzhong, who directed the construction of the Qinghai-Tibet Highway. Mu led numerous revolutionary comrades a they braved the harsh natural conditions of high-altitude hypoxia and harsh climates to get the highway done.

In the snowy Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, known as the "Roof of the World," the older generation of revolutionaries and builders, with their flesh and blood and simple tools, performed a miracle in the history of world road construction and forged an immortal monument.
