  Lei Feng - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lei Feng (雷锋Léi Fēng) (December 18, 1940 - August 15, 1962) was a soldier of the People's Liberation Army of the PRC.
Lei died in 1962 at the age of 22, when a pole, struck by an army truck, killed him, when he was directing the truck in backing up.
After Lei's death, Mao Zedong began what was to be known as the "Learn from Comrade Lei Feng" (学习雷锋同志) Campaign, designed to use Lei as a good example to the Chinese people to be cheerfully selfless.

Interestingly, Lei Feng unexpectedly was elevated to an icon of commercial advertising.
Aside from the potentially unpleasant feelings Lei's billboard reappearance may have evoked among those who still remember the original emulation campaigns, it testifies to the lasting influence Lei has had, and obviously continues to have, in the attempts to make people's behavior conform to some norm.

However, the melodies are completely different: the one in Taiyin Buyi seems to be loosely based on the old melody Tianfeng Huangpei; the one in Taiyin Chuanxi may be taken from another source or may be a new composition.
