Over half a month before the earthquake struck, Wang Chengmin (汪成民) of the State Seismological Bureau (SSB) Analysis and Prediction Department had already concluded that the Tangshan region would be struck by a significant earthquake between July 22, 1976 and August 5, 1976 due to animal behavior and systemic phenomena like water rising in wells. Wang made an effort to publicise and spread the information to 60 people, despite it being a criminal offence . One of the people listening in Qinglong was the local official Wang Chunqing (王春青).
