on the evening of september 17, at hangzhou xiaoshan international airport, a banner that read "warmly welcome the triumphant return of zhejiang players from the 47th worldskills competition" attracted passers-by to stop and look.
one of the people holding the banner was yang jinlong, who won the gold medal in the automotive painting event at the 43rd worldskills competition, breaking my country's record of "zero" in the gold medal list of the worldskills competition. when the reporter asked him why he came to the airport to pick him up, he smiled and said, "this is a kind of inheritance."
at the just concluded 47th world skills competition, zhejiang athletes won 3 gold medals, 1 bronze medal and 2 excellence medals, achieving the best results in history. among them, bao fangtao from zhejiang construction technician college won the gold medal in the masonry project, zhou feng from cixi technician college won the gold medal in the architectural metal structure project, kang bangcheng from ningbo gulin vocational high school won the gold medal in the cooking (western cuisine) project; guo zhihao from zhejiang construction technician college won the bronze medal in the tile veneer project; chen binbin from hangzhou technician college won the excellence award in the automobile spray painting project, and weng yan from ningbo technician college won the excellence award in the heavy vehicle technology project.
confidence and passion
when asked about his first thought after learning he had won the gold medal, bao fangtao half-jokingly said, "it's great that i don't have to train anymore."
from zero foundation to winning the gold medal in the world championship, bao fangtao has put in more than 2,000 days and nights of hard practice. he practices for 6 hours a day, holding a knife in his right hand and a brick in his left hand. bao fangtao has developed muscle memory for the masonry movements of "one shovel of mortar, one brick, and one kneading and pressing" - he must be fast, with even brick joints and full mortar. "in large international arenas, everyone is very strong, and every brick must be considered a scoring point."
experience and extensive training are the greatest confidence for these young players to stand on the world competition stage.
zhou feng recalled that he had spent a whole year practicing flame cutting and welding and other processing methods. "flame cutting is to use the flame generated by the combustion of a mixture of combustible gas and oxygen to directly cut through the iron plate after it is heated red." when he started learning, zhou feng made several mistakes. sometimes, when he was anxious, his hands were burned by the high-temperature iron plate of several hundred degrees. the most serious burn was on his wrist, and he rested for more than half a month. but after resting, he threw himself into training without hesitation.
these young craftsmen have been on the verge of giving up many times but have persisted. what supports them to keep going is their love for their skills.
"if you like something, you won't find training hard." guo zhihao joined the training team later than others, so he made up for it with hard work. in addition to the 8 hours of practical training every day, he always practiced an extra hour or two. even if he caught up with the progress, he never slacked off in training. "for a while, i felt uneasy if i didn't practice for a day."
what would you like to share with other students who are pursuing the skills track? when faced with this question, the contestants’ answers were surprisingly consistent: “be determined in your goal, and do it well when you decide to do it. even if you fail, you will definitely not regret it when you look back in the future.”
changes outside the stadium
the worldskills competition is known as the "worldskills olympics". it is an important platform for members of the worldskills organization to showcase and exchange professional skills. it is also an excellent classroom for a large number of skilled talents to observe, learn, and improve their practical skills.
before the competition, chen binbin went to france to experience the local car painting process. "i saw different concepts from china, and the concepts that teachers teach students are also different. they will encourage students to design independently and amplify their interests." for chen binbin, who has become a technical school teacher, this off-field gain is equally precious.
the first thing the contestants plan to do when they return is to review the game. they hope to share what they have learned on the world stage with more young skilled talents. "for example, in the heavy vehicle technology project, many vehicles are very common to contestants from europe and the united states, but chinese contestants have little contact with them." weng yan said that he plans to bring the experience and technology learned from this competition back to school and teach it to more students.
the worldskills competition has temporarily come to an end, but more changes are happening outside the competition venue. kang bangcheng’s father was once the one who was most opposed to him learning skills. but after knowing the results, his father immediately gave him a tight hug and said, “i’ll give you another 20 years, show me some results.”
this is also what the worldskills competition wants to convey - to raise people's awareness of skills and emphasize the importance of skills to economic development and personal achievement.
"learning skills is becoming more and more popular!" said xu yongliang, party secretary of zhejiang construction technician college. in recent years, a large number of policies on the treatment of skilled talents have been introduced at the national and local levels. "whether as a career choice or a hobby, more and more people are learning skills, and a social trend of respecting, advocating and learning skills is gradually taking shape."
