Media Notes
It is necessary to enable high-tech blue-collar groups to obtain fairer and more competitive treatment returns.
Last week, a 22-year-old young man became the focus of heated public discussion with his own skills. This guy is Ma Hongda , a student of the 16th-level architectural decoration technician class of Zhejiang Construction Technician College, who won the championship in the plastering and partition system project of the 2022 World Skills Competition. Since the "A young man born in the 2000s won the world championship" became a hot search, for several days, many media have focused on Ma Hongda, which has attracted a lot of praise and applause, and has also made his skill field popular - shave putty .

Everyone who has experienced home decoration is familiar with this work. However, before Ma Hongda's award received attention, people rarely really paid attention to the technical content and value of this work. In fact, not only scraping putty, but also many of the World Skills Competition’s contents are common jobs in our lives. These tasks seem ordinary, but there are great tricks to do it to the extreme. This year, in addition to Ma Hongda, who has achieved a "gold-medal breakthrough" in plastering and partition wall system projects, there are also many Chinese youths who are fighting in different fields who have won gold and silver in the World Skills Competition. To a certain extent, the public is paying attention to their achievements, which is also promoting what we call " craftsman spirit ".
For Ma Hongda's achievements, China Radio and Television commented on "With skills, you can make the world admire you" and wrote: "I am not afraid of thousands of moves, but I am afraid of one move. Ma Hongda and many contestants carve every move into their muscle memory through hard work. What they carve into their craftsmanship spirit to achieve the ultimate professionalism." For the work of scraping putty, only by practicing each technical movement and doing every detail can we ensure that the wall is smooth and smooth and present the dazzling effect of decoration. This matter "no shortcuts can be taken, and it needs faith support."
As Pengpai News wrote in the comment article "We all need to have the craftsmanship of "the error is no more than one millimeter"": "Our country has never lacked the spirit of craftsmanship, and has always praised the spirit of craftsmanship: In ancient times, the butcher cuts the ox, and has been 'advanced' for 19 years. Now, there are batches of 'big-counter craftsmen' behind large-scale projects such as ' Chang'e ' to the moon, 'zhurong' fire exploration, and 'beidou' networking. On the road to building a modern country with Chinese characteristics, we especially need high-quality workers with craftsmanship spirit."
Regrettably, not everyone can realize the value of "craftsmanship spirit". Some people neither see the irreplaceable role of technical jobs, nor respect those technical workers who are determined to become "craftsmen of great power". In this regard, the commentator of Guangming.com noticed that when mainstream public opinion praises Ma Hongda and others, there are also many sarcastic arguments on the Internet. For example, "Take out the putty on the construction site and win the championship in minutes." "What's the use of winning this award? Tell more young people to get the putty after graduation?" "I'll come and do it with me for 350 days."
In response to this, a commentator from Guangming.com wrote: "These words are a bit difficult to hear, but they are worth savoring them repeatedly. In the process of reform and opening up in our , many factors of the times have prompted the attention to mental labor and despise physical labor in the thinking framework of the public. If the income level and social status of skilled talents cannot be truly improved through continuous institutional innovation, it will be difficult to consolidate the foundation for building a skilled society and achieve the goals of high-quality and efficient economic development in the future."

Looking at the public opinion field, the respect for industrial workers and the pursuit of "craftsman spirit" are not limited to discussions on this news. On October 25, " Farmers Daily " proposed in the front-page editorial: "Let more craftsmen and farmers in great powers be respected."The article reads: "Why are industrial workers worthy of respect? This is because anyone who relies on labor to create a better life and achieve dreams is worthy of respect, and at the same time, they are front-line workers who are truly contributing to the real economy." "Respecting them means respecting labor, respecting knowledge, respecting talents, and respecting creation. And these " four respecting " are the in-depth implementation of the strategy of building a country with talents in the report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China ht The important content of ml5 is the inherent meaning of us to realize Chinese-style modernization. "
For individuals, as Chen Jiang, a commentator of Qianjiang Evening News, wrote: "A person can last a lifetime. If you can do something well, you can be considered excellent; if you can do something to the extreme, you will be great success. From the end, you will be profound and you will be able to achieve legends." The development of a country and a nation cannot be separated from the joint promotion of workers from all walks of life. The society's evaluation of various talents will directly affect the direction of workers' efforts and progress. This requires us to advocate the social trend of respecting the spirit of craftsmanship and create a good social atmosphere for promoting the spirit of craftsmanship.
On the realistic level, only by increasing support for young people who choose the "craftsman's road" and making them feel more fulfilled and gained can we ensure that China's modernization process has endless technological impetus. The commentary of The Paper mentioned above wrote: "Different social division of labor will lead to differences in work intensity and return levels in various industries. This situation affects people's judgment and choice of career to a certain extent." This is an unavoidable reality.
Although we cannot engage in "equality" among all walks of life, we can use reasonable policy guidance and social publicity to enable high-tech blue-collar groups to obtain fairer and more competitive treatment returns. This is not only to reward young people who are willing to fight and have the ability, but also to create a healthier industrial structure and employment environment.
