Model workers embody the ideals of labor and are the pioneers of their times. Their stories shine like stars, lighting the way forward and inspiring younger generations to strive for excellence and embrace their responsibilities. As the strong backing for workers, trade unions are committed to fostering the spirit of model workers and upholding the value of labor. They create a platform for workers to showcase their talents and achieve their dreams. In China, countless workers continue to demonstrate the spirit of these great models through their actions and achieve remarkable things for a new era.
