General Secretary Xi Jinping recently replied to encourage representatives of workers in China's primary industry, emphasizing the need to "adhere to the original intention of serving the country with skills". This requires us to have a foundation and support for patriotism and serving the country, possess certain skills, and be able to contribute our own strength to the construction of the motherland. In ancient times, it was said that "scholars, farmers, merchants, and merchants" referred to craftsmen and workers who often had a particular skill, but their social status was not high. Of course, modern society cannot have such prejudice against 'work' anymore. Manufacturing is the foundation of a country and a strong nation, and skilled talents are an important force supporting China's manufacturing and creation. Modern industries are becoming increasingly sophisticated, and craftsmen and highly skilled talents from major countries are treasures of the country and urgently needed for the development of new quality productive forces. Skills can lead to success, and using skills to serve the country is an unparalleled honor that deserves the respect of the whole society. Many people have a strong sense of patriotism and patriotism, which inherently emphasizes "what can I do for the country" and requires us to have the basic ability to fight for the country, manifested in certain skills, knowledge or experience. This can be said to be the specific content and requirements of patriotism. Skills for serving the country do not care about how advanced the skills are or how special the threshold is, but about having a skill that can be used by the country. Skills serving the country, knowledge serving the country, technology serving the country, etc. are all ways to serve the country, and there is no superiority or inferiority. Skills come from a deep understanding and proficient mastery of the work at hand, as well as a love for labor, creativity, and career. As long as there is a skill, one can practice hard and improve their abilities, and contribute to the country without reservation, even the most simple and unadorned worker is a practitioner of serving the country with skills. More workers should be encouraged to take the path of serving the country with skills. Skills for serving the country are not limited to industrial skills, and do not specifically refer to physical labor skills. Some skills may not require heavy physical exertion, some skills may appear more "virtual" than industrial skills, and some skills may not even be transformed into products and services. However, as long as they have technological content and are beneficial to the country and society, they are all objects that we encourage development and can use skills to serve the country.
