China News Service, Shanghai, February 15 (Chen Jing and Li Yuhang) Li Guowei is an immigration management policeman at the Shanghai Immigration Main Station Airport Immigration Station. His father, Li Zhong, was a policeman at the Gaoqiao Immigration Station outside the Shanghai Main Immigration Station and retired honorably at the end of January this year.

  This year, due to his Spring Festival duties, Li Guowei was unable to return to his hometown in Shandong with his family for reunion. He told reporters on the 15th that he remembered when he was a child, he went to visit his father who was on duty during the Spring Festival.

He said: "My parents are celebrating the New Year in Shandong, and I am the only one at home. I will be on duty and let my colleagues spend time with their relatives at home."

I will keep in mind my father's instructions and use inheritance and perseverance to write a song of youth that maintains port safety and smoothness."

  At the Shanghai Airport Border Inspection Station stationed at the Pudong International Airport port, 60-year-old Chen Lianjun will retire honorably in a few months after the Spring Festival. During this holiday, he could have enjoyed the "old comrade treatment" in advance and went home to celebrate the New Year with his family. However, he took the initiative to apply to the team leader and continued to stick to his post. Together with his comrades, he performed the most arduous cargo plane entry and exit inspection tasks to ensure the smooth customs clearance of people's supplies during the festival. It is reported that he and his comrades inspect more than 100 inbound and outbound cargo planes every day.

  On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, planes took off and landed intensively on the tarmac of Pudong International Airport, and the loud roar of engines could not be heard. Chen Lianjun and his colleagues had long been accustomed to this kind of noise. "The shuttle inbound and outbound cargo planes and busy ports represent the infinite vitality and vitality of China's import and export trade." Chen Lianjun said with emotion in an interview. He said: "Cargo flights are busy coming in and out during the Spring Festival, and border inspections must be meticulous and efficient. We cannot let the planes wait for us."

  On that day, the temperature in Shanghai soared to 23 degrees Celsius, and it was very stuffy in the small cabin. Throughout the afternoon, Chen Lianjun and his colleagues inspected 7 cargo planes non-stop, sweating profusely. During the break, Chen Lianjun checked his exercise records and found that he had walked 18,300 steps today. He smiled and said to his colleagues: "There will be a wave of cargo planes arriving and leaving the port during the night. I will definitely be able to break 20,000 steps by the end of the day."
