After two years of hard work, Chinese welders once again surprised the world. When all the judges saw Zeng Zhengchao's work, they couldn't help but sigh: "It's perfect, impeccable, impeccable!"

Zeng Zhengchao said: "No matter how painful it is, you have to hold back, because when welding A shake of the hand may affect the quality of welding." Behind Zeng Zhengchao's relaxed words, there is a difficult journey, every scar has witnessed every improvement and growth of the players.

Yang Jinlong——"Defeat yourself without fear"

Yang Jinlong, a contestant in the auto spray painting project, comes from Hangzhou Technician College. He fulfilled his wish with the brightest gold medal. "To accept the challenge, you must first overcome yourself."

Won the gold in the Manufacturing Team Challenge, Yu Hailong from AVIC Chengdu Aircraft (Group) Co., Ltd. And Lin Chunlong and Zhong Shixiong from Guangdong Machinery Advanced Technical School couldn't help themselves. "Totally unexpected," the three boys didn't expect to win the championship. Yu Hailong encouraged himself with "details determine everything", while Lin Chuntaki emphasized that his stable psychological quality enabled him to perform exceptionally well. Zhong Shixiong's insight is that precision is more important than speed. They said, "The technology of Chinese technicians can completely compete with the world's highest level."

How hard will the technology be replaced by artificial intelligence (AI)? It is certain that artificial intelligence will not completely replace human beings. This scenario will only exist in American blockbusters, but it is undeniable that artificial intelligence will replace some repetitive and mechanical tasks of human beings. The center's "sorting robot" reduces the number of sorting workers by 86%, making the sorting of goods more timely, accurate and safe. Only by keeping pace with the times and innovating continuously, and improving their professional skills, can human beings find their own foothold in the future society.
