"1971. On the island of Weichangshan, in front of Dalian, in 1958, a group of women, breaking the Chinese traditions, decided to go fishing, with excellent results. In 1962, the ""March 8"" was the first vessel to sail driven by a woman captain, Wen Shuzen. In 1971, the March 8 captured a record amount of shrimps. The export of shrimps at that time represented an important economic resource for China."
