CCTV News:She is the first designer of ethylene compressor in China, breaking the long-term foreign technical monopoly; She created the first million-ton ethylene compressor in China and climbed to the peak of design technology in the same industry in the world. She is just an ordinary design director, but she leads the team to undertake 60% of the design tasks of the largest compressor manufacturer in China.
She is Jiang Yan, a professor-level senior engineer of Turbine Design Institute of Shenyang Blower Group Co., Ltd. During the historical journey of localization of major equipment, she worked hard and made great achievements, and became a veritable "dream catcher" for the industry to serve the country.
The birth of a miracle
After graduating from university in 1997, Jiang Yan stepped into the door of Shengu Group with great enthusiasm and became an ordinary designer. At first, she only made static equipment such as auxiliary machines, and was a "layman" of dynamic equipment such as compressors. After the research on the steering gear, she grew up from an ordinary technician to a senior engineer with her enthusiasm and amazing perseverance, and witnessed and participated in the technical progress of Shengu in the first line of design.
Ethylene, a compound composed of two carbon atoms and four hydrogen atoms, is one of the largest chemicals in the world, which constitutes more than 70% of petrochemical products. Its output is regarded as one of the important indicators to measure the development level of a country’s petrochemical industry.
Ethylene compressor can be called the "heart" of ethylene industry, and the million-ton ethylene compressor represents the highest level of petrochemical equipment. For a long time, the design and manufacturing technology of large ethylene compressors has been monopolized by a few countries.
In 2006, the state decided to build three million-ton ethylene projects in Tianjin, Zhenhai and Fushun. Shengu Group undertook the task of developing a million-ton ethylene compressor for these three projects. It is a historical opportunity that must be grasped to end the history of passive dependence on imports and get rid of the embarrassing situation of being controlled by others.
Jiang Yan was only 33 years old when he received the R&D task. Young, not good at talking, and not graduated from a famous university, can this seemingly soft and weak woman break through the "hard ice" that Chinese people have been trying hard for decades? If it can, it must be a miracle.
But miracles are always created by people.
After taking over the task and provoking the "burden", Jiang Yan and her colleagues shuttled between major refining and chemical plants in China day and night, climbing the workbench of imported ethylene plants with a height of tens of meters over and over again to observe the appearance structure and operation; Visit major scientific research institutes in China again and again, visit, consult and discuss; Study hard one after another thick original foreign language materials … … Design failure, modify the design, fail again and modify again. After unremitting efforts, Jiang Yan and her team redesigned the structure of the compressor and successfully put it into use.
At 18: 00 on February 22, 2011, the first domestic million-ton ethylene compressor was successfully tested in the assembly workshop of Shengu Group, which made China the fourth country in the world to independently design and develop million-ton ethylene compressors.
From 450,000 tons, 800,000 tons, 1 million tons to 120 tons, Shengu Group has accumulated more than 1,000 compressors so far, completely ending the passive situation of China’s long-term dependence on imports of ethylene compressors and directly saving the country 5 billion yuan in imported equipment funds. With the hard work of "Jiang Yan", developed countries have gone through 100 years in the field of ethylene compressor development, while China only took 10 years.
The goddess is a model worker and a mother.
Jiang Yan is famous for her diligence in the factory. On the day before her daughter was born, she still kept the habit of being the first to work in the office every day. It is this hard work that has won her the title of Shenyang Special Model Worker, Liaoning May 1st Women’s Advanced Individual, National May 1st Labor Medal and National Model Worker. On April 28th, 2013, as a representative of industrial workers in Shenyang, she spoke in the Great Hall of the People and was personally received by the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader.
The goddess model worker is an excellent female craftsman in the country, but she is also the wife and mother of a family.
In 2012, there was a problem with the compressor of a domestic enterprise. Jiang Yan, who just got off the plane from the scene and saw her husband, cried in a big mess. "At that time, I really thought, I hope something will happen on the plane, and I won’t have to worry about it the next day." Her lover has been patiently asking what happened. As a colleague, the husband can always detect his wife’s thoughts at the first time and slowly enlighten him. In Jiang Yan’s heart, her husband will always be his most solid backing.
Because of work, Jiang Yan owed too much to her daughter since she was a child. In 2013, my daughter was hospitalized with a bad cold. As a mother, she was unable to accompany her little daughter to take care of her because of the Huizhou project. There is still a short message from her daughter in her mobile phone: "Mom, I have been waiting for the bus in the snow for 40 minutes, but I have not come yet. I am freezing and crying. I miss you to pick me up."
Sometimes, after a long business trip, Jiang Yan took out her daughter’s photos on her mobile phone and looked at them. She said that her 14-year-old daughter is 1.7 meters tall, with good academic performance and independence. Having her is the greatest achievement and happiness in this life.
The craftsman heart of the goddess
In Jiang Yan’s mind, the so-called "great country craftsman" must "sit on the bench and keep an eye on the computer."
Jiang Yan’s design team is mostly young people born in 1980s and 1990s, with an average age of less than 30 years old. They are full of energy but not ostentatious, and they are practical and diligent. "Doing things one step at a time, walking too fast, you will feel empty one day." Jiang Yan said.
"Sister Jiang is the absolute guarantee of the project!" For apprentice Han Shuai, the customer named Jiang Yan to lead the design, which made him feel proud as an apprentice.
After 1985, Han Shuai officially worshipped Jiang Yan as a teacher in 2015. "Sister Jiang is a strong woman." He secretly rejoiced when he learned that he would become Jiang Yan’s apprentice. But it is this "female man" who is resolute in her work, but she treats her colleagues delicately and gently in her life. Han Shuai said, "In winter, if anyone’s home heater is broken, Sister Jiang will lend them her own electric heater."
Jiang Yan said frankly, in fact, I’m not just "Jiang Yan", but I’m representing 7,300 employees of Shen Gu who have made silent contributions in their posts. She believes that the craftsman spirit is more about loyalty to the enterprise and persistence in the profession. She said, I remember our leader said: "Ten years ago, when I visited a Japanese enterprise, I saw a craftsman grinding the weld. Ten years later, the old craftsman still stuck to his post and did the same job."
"Be sure to be practical!" This is the most important trait that Jiang Yan thinks as a craftsman, and this is also the evaluation of the model worker director by the young people in the design room of the Turbine Design Institute where Jiang Yan is located: "simple, practical and honest".
Jiang Yan said, "In the future, we will never be followers and imitators, but leaders and leaders. As ‘ Old advanced ’ Technical personnel of state-owned enterprises, I will aim at the forefront of world science and technology, shift our products from high-speed growth stage to high-quality development stage, and promote more ‘ Made in China ’ Trend ‘ China created ’ Make your own contribution to building an innovative country.
