He Yang is a maintenance worker in the second fully mechanized mining group of Shaanxi Coal Chenghe Mining Dong Mining Branch, and his workers affectionately call him Lao He on weekdays. Speaking of Lao He, although he is unknown and not good at talking, he is indeed a good hand at work. He will repair all the mechanical equipment used in the working face, especially the electrical equipment, and he can say the name, model, wearing parts, working principle, etc.
In 1970, the Coal Mine Construction Headquarters of Chenghe Mining Area in Shaanxi Province was established, and thousands of cadres, workers and migrant workers gathered in Chenghe, which opened the prelude to the construction of Chenghe Mining Area. Lao He also plunged into the "black belt" of Weibei with ** at this time and began the task of building the motherland.
When he first arrived at the unit, he was still an ignorant rural guy from Shangluo, with no education or technology, and some just wanted to do something with his own hands.
At that time, the conditions were hard, the production was basically carried by hand, and the caves dug by the mountains were lived, not to mention the food, but at that time, everyone was full of energy, and it seemed that there was endless strength every day. Lao He recalled the scene of struggle back then, and there was still light in his eyes.
In the blink of an eye, 36 years have passed. He has personally experienced the process of coal mining enterprises from prosperity to decline, and from decline to prosperity. It can be said that he is a living dictionary of the history of the rise and fall of coal mines. However, no matter whether the enterprise rises or falls, Lao He always sticks to the front line of coal mining.
All my skills are learned from the enterprise, and I can't do it if the enterprise benefits well, and I won't do it if the benefits are not good. You can't forget your roots! When it comes to "sticking to", Lao He is still full of gratitude.
Lao He is going to retire after this Spring Festival. The young people around him persuaded him that he was about to retire anyway, and that it would be a day to be able to mingle. But why don't you think so, not only has he never mixed a job, but he cherishes this few hours even more, and in recent months, he has been working every month. Sometimes the underground equipment fails, but he is still the same as before, on call, like an old soldier, standing on every shift, ready to charge at any time!
Now that the coal mine conditions are good, there are intelligence and mechanization everywhere, and the labor intensity of workers is not large. Talking about retirement, Lao He's face flashed with a trace of reluctance.
After 40 years of precipitation of ups and downs, a rural guy has been honed into a "veteran" on the coal front, and He Yang interprets his working life with perseverance.
The Spring Festival in 2024 will be his last Spring Festival at work, he put on protective equipment, walked firmly like a well, and guarded the last shift like a border soldier! (Liu Hangyan).
