How bold are people and how productive is the land?

During the Great Leap Forward, there was a one-sided pursuit of high targets and high speed in industrial and agricultural production.

This sentence reflects the prevalence of exaggeration during the Great Leap Forward.

In 1958, the summer crop yields were good. However, under the trend of criticism of "right-leaning conservative ideas" at all levels, exaggerated bottom-up false reporting of output soon began in various places. On August 27, when the newspaper reported on the investigation report on the annual output of 10,000 kilograms of grain per mu in Shouzhang County, Shandong Province, it used the headline "How bold the people are, how productive the land is", which exaggerated people's subjective initiative to an absurd level.
