　　From the village party secretary on the loess land to the leader of the great country, General Secretary Xi Jinping has always maintained the true character of a laborer and has always maintained a deep affection for the working people.

　　The touching stories between the general secretary and the laborers have written a chapter in the new era of "labor is the most glorious, labor is the most noble, labor is the greatest, and labor is the most beautiful".

"No matter how the conditions of the times change, we must always advocate labor and respect laborers"

　　In the midsummer of 2019, Babu Sand Forest Farm in Gulang County, Gansu welcomed a special "sand control person".

　　Seeing that the forest farm workers were carrying out the "grass grid pressing sand" operation, General Secretary Xi Jinping, who made a special trip here to inspect, picked up a ditch and participated in the sand control work.

After a while, a straight ditch more than two meters long was opened in the sand.

　　The movements of the plow were done in one go, and the staff of the forest farm said that at a glance, they knew that the general secretary was "old-fashioned".

　　Years have passed, but the true character has not changed.

　　In January 1969, Xi Jinping, who was under the age of 16, came to the Liangjiahe Brigade of Wen'anyi Commune in Yanchuan County, which is located on the Loess Plateau, to jump in the queue.

　　Farming, pulling coal, hitting dams, picking manure... In Liangjiahe, Xi Jinping sincerely integrated with the villagers, consciously accepted the tempering of hard life, and grew into a good way of farming.

　　Recalling those years, Xi Jinping said: "My first requirement of myself is 'seeking hardship'."

　　As the stars move, the two photos freeze history.

　　One is in 2019, when General Secretary Xi Jinping participated in the voluntary tree planting in the capital.

In the photo, the general secretary is carrying a shovel and striding to the tree planting site; one is in 1989, when Xi Jinping, then secretary of the Ningde prefectural party committee, led the cadres of the local government to participate in voluntary labor.

In the camera, he carried a hoe on his shoulder and walked on the ridge in high spirits.

　　The interval is 30 years, but the feelings of the workers remain unchanged.

　　Migrant worker Fan Yong keeps a schoolbag in his hometown in Henan.

Daughter Fan Jingjing often took it out and looked at it, and then carefully put it back in the cabinet.

　　"Reluctant to use it, it was given to her by Grandpa Xi." Fan Yong said.

　　On the eve of the Lunar New Year in 2013, General Secretary Xi Jinping came to the construction site of Beijing Subway Line 8 of the China Railway 14th Bureau to visit and express condolences to the front-line workers who are sticking to their posts.

In the temporary small home on the steel construction site of Fan Yong, the general secretary asked with concern: "How long have you been here?" "Is the job stable?" "How is the income?" "How is the living conditions at home?"

　　Knowing that Fan Yong's wife and daughter came to Beijing, the general secretary specially instructed Fan Yong's family: "It's not easy to come here, see the sights in Beijing, and have a good reunion."

　　Seeing Fan Yong's 6-year-old daughter, the general secretary gave her a pink schoolbag, and leaned down to touch her cheek, big friends and children smiled at each other...

　　Although the schoolbag is small, what it carries is the intimate and solid friendship between the general secretary and the workers.

　　On many occasions, General Secretary Xi Jinping made important instructions:

　　"No matter how the conditions of the times change, we must always advocate labor, respect workers, and always attach importance to the role of the working class and the working masses as the main force."

　　"To build a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way, our country's hundreds of millions of working people are the main force."

　　"There is no distinction between high and low labor, and any occupation is honorable."

　　...

　　At the opening ceremony of the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, a five-star red flag was passed in the hands of more than 100 ordinary Chinese.

"The courier boy" Liu Kuo is one of them.

　　Three years ago, on the eve of the Spring Festival, Liu Kuo and his colleagues met General Secretary Xi Jinping who came to visit them at the Qianmen Stone Hutong express delivery station in Beijing.

　　I heard that everyone can only go home in their 30s. The general secretary said that the "courier boy" works very hard. He wakes up early and stays late, rain or shine, and the more the holidays are, the busier he is. Like a hard-working little bee, he is the hardest worker and lives for everyone. brought convenience.

　　These touching details are engraved in the depths of the memory of countless people——

　　On April 30, 2020, at a critical moment in the fight against the epidemic, the general secretary sent a letter to all employees of Zhengzhou Yuanfang Group, praising the front-line medical staff to those involved in prevention and control in all aspects, from sanitation workers, courier brothers to those who produce epidemic prevention materials. Workers and tens of millions of working people have worked hard and dedicated themselves in their respective positions, gathering a powerful force to overcome the epidemic.

　　In the early spring of 2021, at the National Poverty Alleviation Summary and Commendation Conference, when Xia Sen in a wheelchair, an old man who donated all his savings of more than 2 million yuan to poverty-stricken areas, he trembled and wanted to stand up. When receiving the commendation certificate, the general secretary lightly patted her on the shoulder, bent down and awarded the certificate to her with both hands.

　　"Continuously improve the sense of gain, happiness, and security of the working class and the working masses" "The whole society should respect model workers, carry forward the spirit of model workers, and make honest and diligent work commonplace" "Maintain couriers, online appointments, The legitimate rights and interests of employed groups such as truck drivers”…

　　Simple words express the sincere feelings of General Secretary Xi Jinping.

Full of deep affection, so that the majority of workers feel warm and exciting.

"Let all the people further radiate their enthusiasm for labor, release their creative potential, and create a better life through labor"

　　"Artisan in a big country, the country needs people like you."

　　On June 29, 2021, the "July 1 Medal" was awarded at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.

General Secretary Xi Jinping's words made "good welder" Ai Aiguo unforgettable for a lifetime.

　　After working for more than 50 years, relying on a welding gun, he has won numerous "military medals": National Model Worker, National Technical Expert, National Science and Technology Progress Award...

　　This time, on the eve of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the party, Ai Aiguo was awarded the honor of "July 1st Medal".

　　"To be a worker is to be a good worker", this is Ai Aiguo's professional creed.

He said that there are hundreds of welding methods, and there are tens of thousands of welding materials. If you know how to apply welding according to your material, you will be considered a real good welder.

　　What is a good worker?

　　"Contemporary workers must not only have strength, but also have wisdom and technology, be able to invent and innovate, and play the main theme of the times with practical actions." General Secretary Xi Jinping said.

　　What is a new age worker?

　　"In the great process of realizing the Chinese Dream, we will work hard, strive for excellence, and climb the peak bravely." At the 2020 National Model Worker and Advanced Worker Commendation Conference, General Secretary Xi Jinping paid high tribute to the workers.

　　Struggle is the constant theme of the times, and innovation is the source of social progress.

　　"Are these products independently researched and developed?" On October 12, 2020, in the exhibition hall of Chaozhou Sanhuan (Group) Co., Ltd., General Secretary Xi Jinping picked up a ceramic substrate and asked while looking at his concerns about the company's independent innovation beyond words.

　　In the test analysis room, researchers are conducting nanoscale microscopic analysis of materials.

Hearing that there are 5 doctors among them, 2 of them are "returnees", the general secretary is very happy.

　　"How many engineers does the company have now?" "How is the market share?" The general secretary asked one after another.

　　Facing the employees of the company, General Secretary Xi Jinping said earnestly: "Independent innovation is what I attach the most importance to now, and it is also the most important thing for the Party Central Committee. To develop an enterprise, to upgrade the industry, and to develop a high-quality economy, we must rely on independent innovation. "

　　On November 19, 2021, when attending the third "Belt and Road" construction symposium, General Secretary Xi Jinping recalled a past event more than 20 years ago.

　　While working in Fujian, Xi Jinping received the visiting Governor of East Highlands Province of Papua New Guinea.

"I introduced Juncao technology to him, and the governor was very interested. I sent Lin Zhanxi from "Shan Hai Qing"."

　　Lin Zhanxi, a professor at Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University, is the pioneer of Juncao technology and the prototype of Professor Ling Yinong in the TV series "Shan Hai Qing".

During the Minning Poverty Alleviation Collaboration, he led his team to travel all the way to Ningxia to teach poor villagers how to grow mushrooms with grass.

　　Juncao technology not only made Minning Village bid farewell to poverty, but also spread to 106 countries and regions in the world, but Lin Zhanxi's pace has never stopped.

"I cannot live up to the trust of the general secretary. I will use innovative technologies to help consolidate and expand the achievements of poverty alleviation, continue to improve the ecological environment, and contribute to rural revitalization."

　　Endless struggle and innovation.

　　Recalling the "cornfield talk" more than a year ago, Li Baoguo, a professor at China Agricultural University who has been dealing with soil for more than 40 years, said that he must implement the requirements of General Secretary Xi Jinping and "work hard to protect the black soil, one of the 'cultivated land'. The giant panda'".

　　In July 2020, General Secretary Xi Jinping set foot on the black soil of Lishu County, Jilin Province, with the scorching sun above his head, and chatted with agricultural experts in a corn field to gain an in-depth understanding of the "pear tree model" of black soil protection.

　　"The key to agricultural modernization depends on the modernization of science and technology. It is necessary to strengthen the integration of agriculture and science and technology, and strengthen the cooperation between agricultural bases and scientific research institutes. Experts and scholars should really write their papers on the ground, so that farmers can master advanced agricultural technology and use the best technology to grow crops. Produce the best food." General Secretary Xi Jinping repeatedly urged.

　　In April 2021, in Maozhushan Village, Caiwan Town, Quanzhou County, Guilin, Guangxi, General Secretary Xi Jinping inspected the local thriving grape industry.

Knowing that the science and technology commissioners have played a major role, the general secretary sighed, "When I was in Fujian, I was recruiting science and technology commissioners, and now it is being promoted all over the country. Agricultural technicians are going to sink to the grassroots level in rural areas, and they are going to do concrete work. results."

　　"Enhancing innovation awareness, cultivating innovative thinking, showing the courage to innovate, the courage to be the first, and the vigorous vitality." General Secretary Xi Jinping is here to build a high-quality labor force, in order to adapt to the new round of scientific and technological revolution and The industrial revolution, in the process of promoting high-quality development, creates a new world of labor and points out the direction.

"We must always carry forward the spirit of model workers and labor, and gather strong positive energy for China's economic and social development"

　　"Model workers are the elites of the nation, the role models of the people, and the heroes of the republic." General Secretary Xi Jinping praised the model workers.

　　"In the long-term practice, we have cultivated and formed the spirit of model workers who love their jobs, strive to be first-class, work hard, be brave in innovation, be indifferent to fame and fortune, and be willing to contribute," General Secretary Xi Jinping explained the spirit of model workers.

　　"I was the first national model worker. In 1950, I was only 21 years old. Why am I a model worker? My dream is to build Beida Cang, and now this dream has basically come true."

　　The person who said this was Liang Jun, who was 84 years old at the time, the first female tractor driver in New China, and the prototype of the third set of female tractor drivers on RMB.

　　On April 28, 2013, the All-China Federation of Trade Unions, 65 model workers from 31 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities across the country sat together with General Secretary Xi Jinping and talked about their dreams in life.

　　Liang Jun once cultivated wasteland in the Great Northern Wilderness.

Seeing the General Secretary, the old man couldn't hide his excitement and stood up to speak: "Now Heilongjiang is the No. 1 granary in the country. We have contributed to the nine consecutive increases in grain. Welcome the General Secretary to visit Heilongjiang in the future." The old man was sincere and straightforward. The words provoked bursts of laughter and applause.

　　"I have always been planning to see the Sanjiang Plain, and I will go there in the future." General Secretary Xi Jinping looked at the old man and said, "Everyone of our age knows about your deeds. You are the first female tractor driver in China, you are amazing. "

　　"Great", the simple three words, revealing the general secretary's respect for model workers.

　　A great cause breeds a great spirit, and a great spirit leads a great cause.

　　"To achieve our development goals, we must not only become strong materially, but also spiritually. People of all ethnic groups in the country must learn from the model workers, take the model workers as an example, exert the spirit of fighting for the day and night, and join together to realize China The grand cause of the great rejuvenation of the nation." General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out profoundly.

　　Earnestly teach, earnestly entrust.

　　On the eve of the "May 1st" International Labor Day in 2018, General Secretary Xi Jinping replied to the students of the model worker undergraduate class of the China Institute of Labor Relations.

　　"Socialism is achieved, and the new era is also achieved. I hope you will cherish honors, study hard, continue to work hard in your respective positions, and achieve better results. Use your drive, drive, and drill to inspire more people and inspire them. The broad masses of working people are striving to be the strugglers of the new era.”

　　The students of the model worker undergraduate class clearly remember that the letter to General Secretary Xi Jinping was sent on April 17 of that year.

The original intention of writing the letter is to report their learning situation to General Secretary Xi Jinping and the Party Central Committee, and thank the General Secretary and the Party Central Committee for their care and concern for the model workers.

　　They did not expect that the general secretary replied quickly in his busy schedule.

　　Cai Fenghui, the "cleaning guard" of Tiananmen Square, is a member of the model worker undergraduate class.

"I use labor to interpret youth and use labor to irrigate my dreams. I will use greater energy, aggressiveness, and drill to inherit the spirit of model workers, walk the road of the times, and contribute my modest efforts to the cleanliness of Beijing's environment." Cai Fenghui was still very excited when he read the scene of the reply.

　　This is a tribute to all the model workers and workers in the country on the "May 1st" holiday, and it is also a warm proposal for all Chinese sons and daughters.

　　On April 10, 2022, the Yazhou Bay Seed Laboratory in Yazhou Bay Science and Technology City, Sanya City, Hainan Province.

　　General Secretary Xi Jinping came here to inspect the laboratory to build a platform to support the display of innovative achievements in the seed industry.

　　"I have been paying attention to the scientific research and breeding of Nanfan, and it is necessary to speed up scientific planning and build it into a Silicon Valley of Nanfan that serves the whole country." Take out the energy of ten years to sharpen a sword, and bravely climb the peak of agricultural science and technology."

　　Four years ago, the general secretary once listened to Yuan Longping talk about rice on the Nanfan field ridge.

　　Time flies, love is the same.

　　"We want to carry forward the spirit of the older generation of scientific and technological workers. Comrade Yuan Longping is a role model. In fact, there are many people like him who have worked hard, worked silently, and sharpened their swords for ten years. They have worked hard for a long time." General Secretary Xi Jinping Said with emotion.

　　"For a long time", calling for more workers, especially the younger generation, to inherit and carry forward the spirit of model workers, and strive to take the road of becoming skilled and dedicated to serving the country.

　　Shanxi Taigang, the world's largest stainless steel company, once suffered huge losses.

In 2017 and 2020, General Secretary Xi Jinping visited the company twice for investigation and investigation.

　　During the first inspection, Liao Xi, a "post-85" technician, was conducting a difficult exploration of the new project "Tear Steel by Hand", and he failed on average every two days.

The ardent expectations put forward by the general secretary gave him the courage to innovate.

　　Three years later, TISCO was reborn, and the world's thinnest "hand-tear steel" was successfully developed.

Seeing General Secretary Xi Jinping step into the production workshop again, Liao Xi was nervous and excited.

　　Picking up a piece of "hand-torn steel", the general secretary gently twisted it and praised: "Hundred-smelting steel has made it soft around your fingers."

　　"I hope you will make persistent efforts, continue to climb the peak in high-end manufacturing technological innovation, and take new and greater steps in supporting advanced manufacturing." General Secretary Xi Jinping's affectionate message made Liao Xi more responsible.

　　Glory belongs to the laborer, and happiness belongs to the laborer.

　　"They have created extraordinary achievements in ordinary positions, and interpreted the great creative spirit, great struggle spirit, great unity spirit, and great dream spirit of the Chinese people with practical actions";

　　"Promote yourself with the lofty spirit and noble character of model workers and advanced workers, radiate labor enthusiasm, cultivate craftsman culture, abide by professional ethics, and take hard work, honest work, and creative work as conscious behaviors";

　　"Their deeds can be learned and done, and their spirits can be traced";

　　...

　　Build the foundation with labor and open the way with struggle.

General Secretary Xi Jinping's care and concern for laborers, and his respect and praise for the spirit of model workers will surely inspire and guide hundreds of millions of people to forge ahead, and rely on labor to create a better future on the new journey!
