Li cropped and retouched this photograph of a rally in Harbin at the request of his editors at the Heilongjiang Daily. In the original, marchers' fists seem to strike Mao's portrait; Mao's picture is in a black frame - which implies that his is dead; and the sign bearing Mao's quotation is partially obstructed by a waving flag. Li removed the fists and black frame, and redesigned the hidden characters of the quotation.
