when hu zehong, zhou shuchun and others entered the meeting room of the sichuan provincial department of human resources and social security, the audience burst into warm applause and flowers were given to every team member. behind the applause and flowers is hu zehong's six years of persistence and hard work, zhou shuchun's six years of daily companionship and guidance, and the selfless protection and dedication of the core coaching team members.
in 2018, 14-year-old hu zehong entered panzhihua technician college to learn welding technology. after that, he passed many selections and became a disciple of zhou shuchun, a national gold medal coach in the field of welding. he also received zhou shuchun's teaching and guidance as a candidate for the 47th world skills competition.
over the past six years, zhou shuchun has taught him all his skills and taken good care of him in life. hu zehong, with his unremitting efforts and hard-working spirit, has grown from an ignorant boy to an outstanding young man in the welding field in china. he has won the gold medal in the second vocational skills competition of the people's republic of china, the champion of the welding project of the 2024 global skills challenge, and the gold medal in the welding project (international group) of the china international invitational competition. recently, he won the silver medal in the welding project of the 47th world skills competition.
behind the individual achievements is the hard work of the coaching team. it is understood that after hu zehong was selected by the country as a regular player to participate in the 47th world skills competition, the core coaching team are all experts in the national skills field. among them are liu jingfeng, the leader of the chinese technical expert group of the world skills competition welding project, zhou shuchun, the head coach of the national team of the world skills competition welding project, zhao wei, the gold medalist of the professional group of the welder project in the first "three regions and three prefectures" vocational skills competition in my country, zhao pubo, the champion of the welding project of the 45th world skills competition, and wang fuxing, the silver medalist of the welding project of the second national skills competition and a national technical expert.
with the support of this luxurious skill coaching team, the 20-year-old hu zehong won the silver medal in the welding event of the 47th world skills competition in lyon, france.
"although it is only a silver medal, hu zehong's total score has exceeded the scores of our country's previous gold medalists in welding projects at the worldskills competition. this is not easy. we will continue to work hard and strive to return to the gold medal podium in the welding project at the next worldskills competition," said zhou shuchun.
