Cctv news(News Network): The pace of the Spring Festival is getting closer and closer, and the flavor of the year is getting stronger and stronger. The general station continues to send dozens of reporters to go deep into various places, focusing on the development of the country and the changes in people’s lives, and feeling the pulse of the country’s continuous progress. Starting from today (January 25th), the news broadcast launched a series of reports "Going to the Grassroots in the New Year". First of all, we walked into Daxinganling to see the persistence and struggle of the forest workers.
Before dawn, Gao Deli, a forest worker in his fifties, and his wife have already got up, warmed up the car, boiled water and cooked, and they started their preparations for the day separately.
The working point is nearly 20 kilometers away, and it takes more than 40 minutes to drive and then climb the mountain road for more than 40 minutes. All the way down, the sweat on the clothes transpiration.
Because the temperature is extremely low, the working machine has been frozen and needs to be baked with fire first.
There are very strict requirements for the use of fire in forest areas. To clear an empty area, it is necessary to cover it with snow after use to ensure that it is completely extinguished.
Forest workers walk through the Woods with more than 20 kilograms of mowers hanging from their waists, cleaning up vines and shrubs, diseased wood and rotten wood that hinder the growth of trees.
Working in the forest, it is common to be stabbed and scratched by branches.
Working outside, people often eat instant noodles and baked steamed bread, which is not only convenient for heating, but also can drink hot soup.
There are nearly 370,000 hectares of young and middle-aged forests to be tended by Tuqiang Forestry Bureau in Daxing ‘anling. After commercial logging was stopped in 2014, nearly 900 "loggers" turned into "foresters", silently guarding this important green ecological barrier in northern China. Gao Deli, 56 years old, used to be responsible for cutting trees, but in 2013 he began to work as a forester.
