"May Day" is a holiday for workers and a glorious moment to pay tribute to workers. Workers are ordinary but shining dream chasers. In 2020, at the National Commendation Conference for Model Workers and Advanced Workers, General Secretary Xi Jinping proposed that we should vigorously promote the spirit of model workers, the spirit of labor, and the spirit of craftsmanship. The most important weapon of the country begins with ingenuity, but ingenuity goes a long way. "Perseverance, focus, excellence, meticulousness, and pursuit of excellence" summarize the profound connotation of the craftsman spirit.
China Ordnance Inner Mongolia First Machinery Group is responsible for the production of my country's main battle tanks. In the workshop, senior welder Lu Renfeng is leading his apprentice to study the welding technology of a new material. He would polish every technical detail repeatedly, being meticulous and rigorous to the point of being demanding. This kind of excellence and meticulous craftsmanship is the work attitude he has adhered to for many years.
Lu Renfeng has a record that is difficult for others to break. For more than 40 years of work, all the products he has delivered are 100% qualified. And he has another unique feature that distinguishes him from other welders. Because his left hand is injured and disabled, these products are completed with one right hand. Everyone called him the "one-armed welder."
On October 1, 2019, during the military parade in Tiananmen Square, 32 equipment phalanxes passed by like a torrent of steel. The 99a main battle tank welded by Lu Renfeng and his colleagues appeared in the first phalanx. This is the proudest moment of his life.
Another unforgettable moment in Lu Renfeng’s life is in November 2021. He was nominated as a national moral model and received by General Secretary Xi Jinping at the Great Hall of the People.
"Persistent focus, excellence, meticulousness, and pursuit of excellence" is General Secretary Xi Jinping's summary of the profound connotation of the craftsman spirit. It is also the belief that Lu Renfeng has been working hard to practice in his more than 40 years of welding work.
tank is known as the "King of Land Warfare". The entire body is welded by hundreds of steel plates, making it impregnable. And Lu Renfeng is the "king maker" behind it. He is the one who welded these hard steel plates together tightly to ensure that more than 800 welds, large and small, can withstand the violent impact of artillery shells.
More than thirty years ago, Lu Renfeng had an accident while working overtime. His left hand was cut off by a shear. Although three fingers were reattached after rescue, the left hand basically lost its normal functions. To do welding, you need to complete a lot of extremely delicate and powerful work, which is very difficult to do with only one right hand. The employer told Lu Renfeng that they could change his position, but his love for welding technology made him persist.
It takes extraordinary perseverance to pick up the welding gun again. At first, it was difficult to maintain accuracy with the parts Luzhin soldered. What others can do in one go, he can do it several times or even dozens of times.
It was difficult for his disabled left hand to hold the welding helmet, so Lu Renfeng added a piece of iron wire to the welding helmet and bit it with his teeth to protect his face. He also made special thickened heat-insulating gloves to make it easier for his left hand to hold the parts longer.
worked many times harder than others. Lu Renfeng continued to overcome technical difficulties and became the leader in welding technology in the entire factory. He was responsible for the welding of the cockpit and turret on the tank, which is the most critical and complex part of the tank.
After that, Lu Renfeng ushered in a new challenge and participated in the development of 99a main battle tanks and armored vehicles. These powerful weapons use hard special steel for armor, which is extremely difficult to weld.
We have a heavy responsibility on our shoulders and we must move forward firmly. Lu Renfeng led his colleagues into the "welding restricted area". In order to find the best welding process, they tested thousands of materials and tried all welding methods.
After six years of dedicated research, Lu Renfeng and his colleagues finally overcame the welding problem of this new material and delivered a brilliant answer with the 99a main battle tank.
has been working for more than 40 years now. Lu Renfeng still maintains great enthusiasm for researching new welding techniques, and constantly challenges more advanced technologies with the craftsmanship of persistence, concentration and excellence.
With the support of the group, Lu Renfeng led a group of young welders to undertake the welding tasks of new materials and new equipment, constantly seeking breakthroughs and improving old processes. Today, 61-year-old Lu Renfeng still shuttles around the workshop every day, working tirelessly and setting an example to inherit the spirit of craftsmanship and influencing the young people around him.
Lu Renfeng used a strong welder's hand to forge powerful weapons of great power with persistence and concentration. Others used their deft hands to weave beautiful embroidery on brocade with excellence, inheriting the ancient culture.
Lu Jianying is a well-known local representative inheritor of Su embroidery in Suzhou. When the reporter saw her, she was instructing her daughter in embroidery.
Lu Jianying was born in a Suzhou embroidery family, and it has been passed down to her for the fourth generation. Many years ago, Lu Jianying sat in front of the embroidered bed and listened to her mother's teachings. Her mother’s meticulous attitude towards embroidery craftsmanship and pursuit of excellence have left a deep impression on her to this day.
Lu Jianying: "My cat has been embroidered. I was excited and a little nervous. I showed it to my mother. My mother was very serious. She said how the eyes could be different in height. When she pointed hard at my eyelids, that Tears streamed down her eyes. "
Her mother's words and deeds made her understand that Su embroidery is a finely crafted art, and she must focus on polishing her skills to become a qualified inheritor.
On July 6, 2023, Lu Jianying’s studio welcomed a special guest.
Lu Jianying: "I was embroidering a picture of "Peacebirds with Peach Blossoms", and General Secretary Xi Jinping came to my stretcher. He said hello, he was very kind and kind, and he looked at it very carefully. He said that the inheritance of Chinese culture How strong the power is can be seen through this Su embroidery. Kung fu like this fully reflects the resilience, patience and determination of the Chinese people. This is part of the Chinese national spirit. It is really an honor to be recognized by the General Secretary. ”
The exchange with the General Secretary made Lu Jianying feel warm and powerful in her heart, and she became more confident in continuing to focus on improving embroidery skills and inheriting culture. For Lu Jianying, Su embroidery is a career she is willing to devote her whole life to pursuing.
Lu Jianying left home at the age of 15 and studied with many famous teachers. By chance, Lu Jianying saw her predecessors embroidering antique paintings. The delicate charm of ink and wash in the paintings perfectly blended with the embroidery. Lu Jianying was deeply attracted by the connotation of traditional Chinese culture. She realized that Su embroidery is a cultural inheritance. Vivid carrier.
The light and shadow of antique painting and embroidery are bright and dark, smart and vivid. To achieve this effect, you must prepare dozens of silk threads from dark to light for each color, and then carefully split the threads to achieve the ideal effect.
Now, with the support of national policies, the local government has invested tens of millions of yuan in intangible cultural heritage protection funds, focusing on supporting the cultivation of successor talents for Su embroidery. Lu Jianying also opened the "Guanxiu Garden" training center, allowing people from all over the country to have the opportunity to come into contact with Su embroidery.
It’s like discussing and discussing, like polishing. The craftsman spirit of persistence, concentration and excellence surges in the blood of the Chinese nation's workers. Countless ordinary and great craftsmen shine in their respective positions with the belief of continuous pursuit of excellence.
