The corporate leaders at the Daqing Petro-Chemical Corporation persecute Dafa practitioners who work at the company for their own political gains. For several years, based on an incomplete survey, the company's security director Li Yanting has authorized at least 100 Dafa practitioners to be arrested on criminal charges, and 30 of them have been sent to labor camps. There is also a direct order, given orally and secretly that whoever catches a Dafa practitioner posting truth clarification materials will be rewarded 1,000Yuan. [500 Yuan is the average monthly income for an urban worker in China.] The corporate leaders have also collaborated with the police in many persecution activities that include illegal abduction, forced brainwashing, mental torture, physical torture, labor camp and prison sentencing.

The police from her district also phoned her home asking her to turn in the Dafa books, and said that if she didn't comply they would search her home. Ms. Feng went to Beijing to appeal on November 19, 2000, and was sent to the company's Beijing office. After coming back home, the district police detained her in the Longfeng Detention Center.

She went to Beijing the second time on November 19, 2000 and was arrested at the Qianmen Police Station and sent to a detention center in Pinggu County. She was not provided food for one day and was under interrogation until mid-night. Because she refused to give her name and address, she was locked up in an abandoned storage room with no heating system or toilet. The windows were broken and wind blew in freely. There were a total of six Dafa practitioners in the room, and all were chained at the feet and handcuffed in the back. They had to sleep on bare wood plank beds. They were forced to run bare-footed back and forth in pairs in the courtyard. The skin on their ankles was torn by the chain and had blood all over them. Ms. Li went on a hunger strike to protest. On the 8th night she was taken in a prison van and dropped off at the Zihe bus station in Hebei province. She was picked up at the bus station and rescued by local practitioners. On the 10th day she was arrested from her home and taken to the Songzhuang Police Station. She was kicked and beaten for one day and one night, then was transferred to the Tongzhou Detention Center.

On so called "sensitive days," leaders from her workplace came to talk to her, asking her to write the "promise letter," severely disturbing her while she worked. Police also made many harassing calls to her workplace and confiscated her national ID card making it impossible for her to travel (loss of travel freedom). Later she was forced to leave her employment under some special arrangement. Liu Qin and Zhang Benqi from the Plastic Factory withheld her 20,000 Yuan compensation from the employment termination agreement without any justification.
