Editor's note: This year marks the 70th anniversary of the founding of New China.
On Sept 25, 1982, the Chinese women's volleyball team won the World Championship in Lima, Peru, as seen in this item from China Daily.
The team won five world titles in a row in the 1980s, inspiring the nation so much that the "spirit of the women's volleyball team" has since become a phrase in Chinese.
