  [While learning is in progress] On August 23, General Secretary Xi Jinping came to Moon Mountain of Saihanba Mechanical Forest Farm in Hebei Province to observe the natural landscape of the forest farm, and listen to the introduction of Hebei's overall promotion of landscape, forest, field, lake, grass and sand system management and forest farm management and protection, and visit the forest protection Member.

For the group of forest rangers, Xi Jinping always cares about it.

Xinhua News Agency's "Learning in Progress" sorts out the story of Xi Jinping's concern for forest rangers.

  On August 23, General Secretary Xi Jinping came to Moon Mountain of Saihanba Mechanical Forest Farm in Hebei Province to observe the natural landscape of the forest farm, listen to the introduction of Hebei's overall promotion of the management of landscape, forest, field, lake and sand system and forest farm management and protection, and visit the forest rangers.

Later, Xi Jinping came to Shanghai Memorial Forest to observe the growth of the trees on the spot, and to understand the forest farm's promotion of the Saihanba spirit and the promotion of high-quality development.

  Xi Jinping once lamented: "Forest rangers are very important, and planting many trees is not easy!" He has always been concerned about this group.

  At this year's National Two Meetings, Xi Jinping's dialogue with a forest ranger was impressive.

  At the scene of the deliberations of the Inner Mongolia delegation, representative Zhou Yizhe told the General Secretary the new "Forest Symphony":

  "Roe deer and brown bears often'visit' forest farms and management and protection stations. According to estimates, the total value of the forest and wetland ecosystem services here in 2018 is 615.974 billion yuan. The green water and green mountains are the Jinshan Yinshan. "

  Zhou Yizhe is a forest farm worker from the Greater Xing'an Mountains forest area in Inner Mongolia.

He introduced his experience of changing from a "tree cutter" to a "tree watcher".

  Xi Jinping nodded his approval. He smiled and said: "The total ecological value you mentioned is the concept of green GDP, which shows that the ecology itself is value. There is not only the value of the forest itself, but also the green lung effect, which can bring more Tourism, forest economy, etc. "Green water and green mountains are golden mountains and silver mountains", which is actually value-added."

  The change of a group of people and a career reflects the changes of the times.

General Secretary Xi Jinping sighed: "From a tree-cutting person to a tree-watching person, this change of your identity is just a microcosm of the transformation of our country's industrial structure."

  Xi Jinping has always been very concerned about the transformation of forest areas.

  In Xi Jinping's view, the goal of forestry reform is not only to be ecologically beautiful, but also to enrich the people-to protect the ecology and protect the people's livelihood.

  On January 26, 2014, General Secretary Xi Jinping braved the severe cold of minus 30 degrees Celsius and came to Yiershi Town, Aershan City, Xing'an League, Inner Mongolia, to visit and condole the family of Guo Yongcai, a 74-year-old forestry worker in difficulty.

  In January 2014, when Xi Jinping visited the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, he made a special trip to Yiershi Town, Aershan City, which is located in the border, to visit the people living in the forestry shanty town.

Xi Jinping emphasized that forestry workers have made contributions to the country, and the party and the country will not forget everyone.

  In May 2016, when Xi Jinping visited Heilongjiang, he walked into the depths of the red pine forest and communicated with the rangers who were patrolling the mountains to learn about their work and life.

Xi Jinping emphasized that after the complete suspension of logging, I am very concerned about the working and living conditions of forestry workers.

There are many difficulties in the transitional stage, and the state will continue to provide support and open up a brighter future through the development of continued industries.

  On January 16, 2019, General Secretary Xi Jinping inspected and investigated in Xiong'an New District, Hebei.

In the afforestation area of ​​Daqinghe Forest Zone 1 of the "Millennium Xiulin" in Xiong'an New District, Xi Jinping boarded the second floor of Xiulin Station and overlooked the entire forest area.

  In January 2019, Xi Jinping came to the afforestation area of ​​Daqinghe Forest Zone 1, the "Millennium Xiulin" in Xiong'an New District, Hebei. The representatives of the local forest rangers had a cordial exchange.

Xi Jinping emphasized that with blue sky, clear water, green trees, and blue and green intertwined, the highest standard of future life is a good ecology.

Xiong'an New District relies on such an ecological environment to reflect its value and increase its attractiveness.

  On July 15, 2019, General Secretary Xi Jinping went to the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region for investigation and research.

This is Xi Jinping's understanding of the construction of ecological civilization at the Ma'anshan Forest Farm in Harqin Banner, Chifeng City.

  In July 2019, Xi Jinping visited the Ma'anshan Forest Farm in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.

Under the scorching sun and along the rugged forest trail, Xi Jinping walked into the forest area to observe the growth of the trees and learn more about the work, life, and family conditions of the forest rangers.

Xi Jinping said: "Building an ecological security barrier in the north of the motherland and the capital is a strategic task, and it is something we will do for generations."

  In February 2021, Xi Jinping specifically mentioned forest rangers at the National Poverty Alleviation Summary and Commendation Conference.

He said: "More than 1.1 million poor people became forest rangers, guarding the green waters and green mountains, in exchange for the golden mountains and silver mountains."

  ...

  The forest ranger is the guardian of the green waters and green mountains.

  As Xi Jinping said: "As long as you work hard and guard the green waters and green mountains, you will definitely be able to reap gold and silver mountains."
