Guo Jing and Huang Rong, his wife, are heroes from the Song Dynasty (960-1276) who safeguarded the city of Xianyang against Mongolian invaders during the Jin Dynasty (1115-1234) in The Legend of the Condor Heroes, one of the most well-known novels written by Louis Cha Leung Yung (better known for his pen name Jin Yong).

The plan for the statues, which will cost one million yuan ($157,200), has been confirmed by multiple sources including the city's Culture and Tourism Bureau, Press and Publication Bureau, who said the goal is to make the statues "another name card of culture" for the city.

The city changed its name from Xiangfan to Xiangyang on December 9, 2010, in a bid to increase the brand?awareness and further promote its tourism industry.
