On March 1, the 2023 "Great Country Craftsman of the Year" was released, hosted by the All-China Federation of Trade Unions and China Central Radio and Television, hosted by the Sichuan Provincial Federation of Trade Unions, and co-organized by the Chengdu Federation of Trade Unions, Xindu District Committee, and Xindu District People's Government. The event was broadcast on the CCTV Comprehensive Channel and its new media platform, and the 10 "Great Country Craftsmen of the Year" and 40 nominees for 2023 were announced.
Stories of striving for excellence and striving for excellence in ordinary positions slowly unfolded in interviews and conversations.
Another year of shining stars.
This year's launch event was held in a modern industrial factory in Xindu District, Chengdu, Sichuan.
At the event site, the stage was surrounded by neatly arranged domestic high-precision CNC equipment. The 100-meter-long red carpet was filled with light, leading directly to the door of glory. The golden trophy slowly raised the name of the seal carver... This was a highlight moment exclusively for workers. .
Adhere to the original intention with ingenuity
Three Gorges, Xiluodu, Gezhouba... Cui Xingguo, a special technician for turbine assembly at Dongfang Electric Group Dongfang Electric Co., Ltd., is steady and high-spirited.
During the Warring States Period, Li Bing controlled water in Sichuan and left behind the unique Dujiangyan water conservancy project.
Two thousand years later, also on the Jinsha River, the Baihetan Hydropower Station, the world's largest single-machine capacity and most technically difficult hydropower project, stood tall.
The core link of the project, the assembly of giant hydroelectric generator sets, is known as the "Mount Everest" of the world's hydropower industry. Cui Xingguo has successfully stood at the top of "Mount Everest" with his superb skills.
"Continuously pursuing perfection and forcing self-improvement, we have been working hard towards the world's top technology in hydraulic turbine manufacturing!" Cui Xingguo has devoted himself to the field of hydraulic turbine assembly for more than 30 years and has successfully mastered the key technology to reduce the unbalanced torque of hydraulic turbines. , and developed world-leading new processes and methods, leading the team to create a record of 2 million-kilowatt hydropower unit runner on the left bank of Baihetan with zero residue, 3 with zero counterweight, and 8 with all high-quality products, and has also completed 22 innovative research projects and 62 patent authorizations were obtained.
Adhere to the original intention with ingenuity.
Cui Xingguo "always compares difficulties with difficulties." Li Hui, a relay protection worker and special technician at the Substation Repair and Testing Station of Yunnan Kunming Power Supply Bureau of China Southern Power Grid, became a "great country craftsman" because of his "fear of trouble". Troublesome people.
"This operation is too troublesome. Can we improve it?" Li Hui, who officially started working in 1992, has grown from an apprentice to a master master, and is fascinated by various new technologies, new ideas and new methods.
Up to now, he has completed more than 1,000 projects such as new construction, expansion, technical transformation, overhaul, and deficiencies, written more than 20 technical documents, obtained 21 patents, and eliminated 8 major power grid hidden dangers. The equipment debugged by others has never been There have been problems.
"This year is the 30th year of my career. I have witnessed the rapid development of the national grid construction, especially in terms of electromechanical protection device technology, which has gone from 'all imported' in the past to 'our best' now. This makes me The most proud thing!" Li Hui said emotionally while standing in the center of the stage.
To light up China in the light, we cannot do without many unknown people who work hard.
From the perspective of laymen, the coil winding work of the transformer is a very boring process that has to be faced every day.
Zhang Guoyun, a process technician and special technician at the Xinjiang Transformer Factory of TBEA Co., Ltd., discovered the subtleties of the job in the coil winding position.
"The internal structure of the transformer is complex, and coil winding seems simple and boring, but in fact it requires constant innovation and research." Since joining the work in 1999, Zhang Guoyun has participated in winding tens of thousands of coils with a total length of 40,000 kilometers. Even if the total length is Tens of thousands of meters of copper wire are hand-wound into coils weighing 20 to 30 tons. As long as it is handled by him, the tolerance can be controlled within plus or minus 1 mm, which is double the industry standard.
The other half of the "Military Medal"
"The milling cutter is running at high speed, and the sound of straight line and R-angle cutting in the inner cavity is completely different." The event site set up in the factory made Dong Litao, CNC miller and special technician of Harbin Electric Group Turbine Factory Company, feel particularly friendly, even in the background Under the cover of music, the sound of machine operation can still be clearly distinguished.
He is called the "number one miller" in the new era. The milling work research group he took the lead in establishing has now developed into a "national skill master" studio with 52 members in 5 types of work, including CNC vertical lathes.
"Only if you are dedicated, good at reforming, and able to work hard can you truly achieve results." At work, Dong Litao always maintains an unyielding spirit and is a leader in the industry and a reassurance for the company. He is also the mainstay of the team. He devotes almost all his efforts to his job. "I want to thank my lover, she is the other half of the 'Military Medal' in my career."
"Have you ever felt aggrieved in so many years?" "Don't shoulder everything by yourself, but also ask him for something." Dong Litao's lover Wang Xiangyan appeared as a special guest at the launch event. Wang Xiangyan, who was a kindergarten teacher, looked a little a little bit in front of the camera. She was shy. During the host's question, tears welled up in her eyes unconsciously. During the long marriage, she took on all the worries about her husband's career. Behind this was the support of mutual sympathy and mutual support.
"Keep exercising and take good care of your body."
A few simple words moved everyone present.
"We are able to take the lead in starting a business, and it is really inseparable from the support of every family member. Lovers, children, parents, all silently contribute and bear responsibility." In order to protect the city's clean water and tranquility, Shanghai Chengtou Sewage Treatment Co., Ltd. Yang Xulei, a senior technician at Longgang Sewage Treatment Plant, walks day and night in the intricate pipeline forest. The modern sludge workshop is clean and tidy, but if it is time for equipment maintenance, even if he wears protective clothing and is fully armed, the smell on his body will Very pungent and lingering.
As the director of the sludge treatment workshop, Yang Xulei once led a team to upgrade and optimize the equipment, processes, and technologies of the sludge treatment system of Asia's largest sewage treatment plant, effectively solving many problems such as "foreign equipment is not acclimatized to the local environment" and formed 17 National patents, more than 30 innovation achievements and technological transformation measures, and 17 municipal innovation awards.
On the day of the launch event, Yang Xulei brought their green water and green mountain glass products made from treated sludge and ash, which amazed the audience. "I am what my son calls a 'stinky dad,' but the older he gets, the more he understands this." The work means a lot.”
Peng Fei, a senior engineer at Hanwang Technology Co., Ltd., is the only woman among the 2023 "Great Power Craftsmen of the Year".
Committed to the exploration of research and development and improvement of artificial intelligence algorithms, the application scenarios of the products she developed involve public security, education, construction sites, security and other fields, creating economic benefits of nearly one billion yuan and achieving good social benefits.
While making rapid progress in her career, Peng Fei often felt that she owed something to her family.
Right now, her biggest goal is to successfully develop a robot that can provide companionship to her family, "for the parents who work day and night in our small family, and for every parent whose children cannot be with them..."
Dreams come true in the era of strivers
"This is rhodium powder, more precious than gold!" Under the spotlight, Pan Congming, a precious metal smelter and special technician at Jinchuan Group Tonggui Co., Ltd., pointed to a transparent vial containing gray powder to reveal the mystery.
Precious metals are key basic materials for national strategic high-tech industries such as precision electronics, aerospace engines, and fuel cells.
Pan Congming went through tens of thousands of experiments and wrote more than 300,000 words of invention notes. He finally achieved the simultaneous extraction of more than 8 rare precious metals from the "waste residue" of copper and nickel smelting, and made the purity of each precious metal reach 99.99%, changing my country's precious metals. Smelting has been dependent on foreign countries for a long time.
"I'm not afraid of failure. The key is to firmly grasp the 'stuck neck' technology in our own hands." Pan Congming said loudly.
The most fashionable Peking Opera mask is the "Jinghua" with the largest diameter shield machine in China; the mighty Lingnan Lion Dance is a mud-water balance shield machine that uses a number of world-first technologies and is used in the construction of high-speed rail undersea tunnels... China Railway Construction Zhang Shuaikun, a senior engineer of Heavy Industry Group Co., Ltd., brought to the stage images of shield boring machines painted with regional characteristics from the front line of underground excavation construction. Behind these iconic domestic shield machine products are He and his team worked day and night for more than ten years to overcome difficulties, just so that the most important weapon of the country would no longer be controlled by others.
"Today, the Chinese standard of TBMs has achieved leapfrog development from 'following' and 'running alongside' to 'leading'." When saying this, Zhang Shuaikun was extremely proud.
"Forging swords for the country is the core driving force for each of us to persevere in our respective fields and constantly pursue the ultimate." From a high-spirited boy to the age of knowing his destiny, from typhoon forecasting services to technology research and development, to ocean weather navigation, the country Xu Yinglong, chief forecaster of the Meteorological Center (Central Meteorological Observatory), has been a "wind chaser" for decades. He has dealt with typhoons, raced against wind and rain, and raced against time, playing an important role in building the first line of defense for meteorological disaster prevention and reduction. Key role.
"Typhoons are closely related to the safety of many people's lives and property. Since you are engaged in this industry, you must take on this responsibility." After more than 30 years of hearing the news, although he has developed strong weather analysis capabilities and the ability to use collective models, he is known as As a "living dictionary" of typhoons, Xu Yinglong often introspects and warns himself, "Our understanding of nature is far from enough. We must be in awe and continue to work hard."
"This is really the best era, an era for strivers." Wu Shunqing, a research librarian at the Jingzhou Cultural Relics Protection Center, is 75 years old and is the eldest of the 10 "Great Country Craftsmen of the Year" in 2023. He saw Representatives of craftsmen from major countries from other fields talked about the vigorous development of their industries and were filled with emotion.
"My son studies ancient art history and will take over this baton from me. I also hope that more young people will participate and pass on the craftsmanship and technology of cultural relic protection." Wu Shunqing has organized or participated in the Jiangling Masan Warring States Period. The cultural relic protection work at major archaeological excavation sites such as the Han Tomb of Haihunhou in Nanchang and the Sanxingdui site has successfully extracted tens of thousands of fragile and endangered cultural relics.
Although he still sticks to the front line after retirement, he is deeply concerned about the construction of a young talent echelon for cultural relics protection: "China is a country with ancient history and has a lot of cultural heritage that needs to be protected. Time waits for no one."
At the end of the release event, "Extraordinary Light", which was first released this year and was dedicated to all ordinary workers, was sung by 10 2023 "Great Country Craftsmen of the Year" and 40 nominees wearing various work clothes. The melody and sonorous and powerful singing inspired everyone at the scene to follow the rhythm with applause, "Carving the mountains and rivers in the heart, polishing the colors of dreams, thousands of scenes, drawing the sky and the earth in the heart, fighting the waves in the sea of skills, the great country has craftsmen on the road to rejuvenation... …”
