How can youth have no regrets? How does youth make ordinary shine? Put your heart and soul into your career and work hard for your ideal!
When we entered the hydrological industry with the dream of youth, we felt lonely because we were far away from the city, lost because it was difficult to adapt to the hard and poor life, and too monotonous because we were far away from reality ... but we gained a lot along the way. Being away from the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoying a pleasant tranquility is actually another kind of enjoyment of life; The hard and poor life has tempered the excellent quality of hydrological youth who are not afraid of difficulties, are not afraid of difficulties, and have fun in hardships. These qualities are precious wealth on the road to success; In the days of dancing with the flood peak, we experienced the passion of youth like water, the affection among comrades, and the incomparable happiness after overcoming the flood, which made people feel that the hydrological cause was so meaningful!
Youth is an era of dreaming, youth is a group of fantasies, and hydrological youth have their own hydrological dreams. Imagine that one day, all hydrologists will work in the urban area, and they can conduct remote consultation and work processing with the superior hydrological department, local government, insurance department, relevant units and hydrological stations under their jurisdiction through computers, networks, special hydrological software and video consultation system. At that time, hydrological stations were scattered all over the country, and unattended, automatic forecasting and remote management were implemented. At that time, due to the high accuracy of hydrological forecasting and long forecasting period, there were no floods and deaths in various places, and property and materials were effectively transferred. People's dependence on hydrology is increasing day by day, not only satisfied with the public information published by TV, radio and hydrological forecasting websites. People near rivers and lakes, flash flood-prone areas, factories and mines along the river, wading projects and tourist attractions have taken the initiative to subscribe to hydrological forecasting short messages that are more convenient and meet the needs of different customers. The annual income of hydrological short messages in China is as high as 1 100 million yuan. Hydrology, as the authoritative department of water resources monitoring and management, is actively committed to wading in the construction of ecological civilization. Hydrological departments are responsible for evaluating the performance of governments at all levels and relevant units and enterprises in controlling the total water consumption, implementing the strictest water resources management system and protecting water sources, and actively carrying out scientific research on water ecological protection and water pollution control. Many achievements have won national patents and been widely promoted, and the practical achievements have been highly recognized by the party and the people. Based on the outstanding contribution of hydrology, the state attaches great importance to and strongly supports the hydrological department. At that time, the hydrological department was not a problem in terms of capital investment, talent introduction and employee welfare. Hydrological staff live in villas, drive famous cars and travel around the world with their families on holidays, leading a happy life. Hydrology major has become one of the most popular and demanding occupations in the college entrance examination volunteer list and civil servant recruitment, and hydrology industry has been selected as the most popular and happiest industry in China every year.
The dream is beautiful, as if I were in heaven, and as if Alice were in fairyland. However, when the dream wakes up and everything comes back to reality, we can't help asking ourselves, how can we realize our dreams? Mencius once said: "If Heaven wants to be a great person, it must first suffer its mind, work its bones and muscles, starve its body and skin, and empty its body." This tells us that the better the dream, the more extraordinary efforts and hardships it will take. Hydrological stations are mostly located in remote villages, far away from the prosperity of cities, with water as partners and mountains as neighbors. Workers face a large number of figures and fluctuating water level parabola all day, and their lives are simple and poor. These are somewhat unsuitable for young hydrologists in their prime of life. However, imagine, which successful person has not experienced difficult years? Which unit's glory has not experienced the process of hard struggle? What we have to think about is how to change the current situation of hydrology through our efforts; How to process boring numbers into hydrological products that meet the needs of society; How to accurately and timely predict the time and water level of the highest point on the water level parabola in each flood to minimize casualties and economic losses; How to do a good job in hydrological services, so that society can rely on hydrology and support hydrology. We also understand that it takes great efforts and hardships to realize these, because our equipment and technology are still difficult to meet the needs of society, and our knowledge and ability are still difficult to meet the requirements of reform and development. Therefore, we can only learn and explore, and only strive to improve our ability. So, how to improve the ability? The experience of Comrade Li XX, the champion of the 5th Provincial Hydrological Survey Skills Competition, inspired us. At the May 4th Youth Symposium held by Huaihua Hydrological Bureau this year, Li XX told everyone about his work experience: "In the remote Yantou Hydrological Station, there is no entertainment life in the city. I study business in my spare time. Usually, I have a wide range of interests. When I see computers and hydrological equipment, I like studying them. When I encounter a problem, I try to solve it myself. If I can't solve it, I can solve it by reading books, checking websites and consulting my colleagues ... "Being willing to learn, being diligent and eager to learn, being brave in exploration and not afraid of difficulties are Li XX's valuable experience for success, which is worth learning by young hydrologists who are advancing in exploration. I believe that nothing is difficult in the world. As long as you do it with your heart, as long as we study hard, study hard and move forward bravely, we will definitely see our dreams come true!
Remember the river we guarded? The river is rushing forward happily, and no matter the mountains and obstacles, the reefs and shoals can stop her from moving forward. Even if she was crushed by rocks, she quickly gathered at the moment when the waves splashed, and continued to rush forward, full of passion and flying all the way. Although a drop of water is ordinary, when ten million drops of water converge into a river and trickle into the sea, we will finally see that the water is so blue, broad and beautiful. Water is like this, and so are we and the hydrological cause we are fighting for? The hard work of every young hydrologist has become a powerful energy for hydrological reform and development. With overwhelming momentum, he overcame all difficulties and obstacles on the road ahead, and finally realized the great innovation of hydrology, presenting a magnificent picture of the modernization of hydrology for the world!
