This industry originated in the late 1970s and early 1980s. With the pace of market economy, some economic talents with strong commodity awareness in Hegu Temple and Mafeng Town began to set foot in the bicycle industry. From buying and selling parts to producing and processing simple parts, the bicycle industry began to sprout in Pingxiang. By the mid-1980s, the number of employees had expanded rapidly, and the varieties of processed parts were also increasing. Some people began to produce "Hei Hu", and a few lawless elements illegally manufactured and sold counterfeit "permanent" and "Phoenix" bicycles, which harmed consumers and attracted great attention from the central authorities and provinces and cities.
