Spring Festival is the most traditional festival in Chinese, and it is also a day for the reunion of thousands of families, but there is always a group of people who give up the opportunity to reunite with their families and stick to their posts. On the shores of Bohai Bay, one figure after another works day and night, guarding the front line of the national gate...

During this year's Spring Festival, the northern Coastal city of Yantai, Shandong Province, banned firecrackers, and the Chinese New Year's Eve night was exceptionally quiet, and only the sound of sea breezes and waves could be heard on the shore of Yantai Port.

In the early morning of the 1st, Liu Dawei, an instructor of the fourth team of the Yantai Entry-Exit Border Inspection Station of the Shandong Entry-Exit Border Inspection General Station, inspected the 11 outer ships docked at Yantai Port, and he had not spent the Spring Festival with his wife and children for 4 years. Between inspections, Liu Dawei sent a voice message to his wife: "Did you sleep with your daughter?" Thank you baby for years of understanding and support, so that I can work with peace of mind, it is very hard to be my backing, I love you. ”

At 5:30 a.m. on the morning of the 1st, the city slowly woke up, and a sudden snowfall turned the streets white. Lin Zinan, the deputy captain of the fourth team on duty, after a night of work, his eyes were full of red blood, and at this moment he put on protective clothing and participated in the work of checking entry and exit personnel and luggage.

"A family is not round, a thousand families are round, the heart is at peace, the festival does not go home, what remains is the responsibility." Lin Zinan told the China News Agency reporter that the Spring Festival stuck to the post, guarding the blue coastline, guarding his hometown, it is also a kind of happiness.

Yang Chaochun carefully and quickly carried out the inspection, he said, returning to his hometown from afar and returning home for the New Year is the strongest nostalgia of the ocean crew.

"The closed management area is ready." Vice Captain Wang Yongchang and colleagues confirmed the work process with each other and did not dare to be sloppy. Standing on the dock, the white gas exhaled from Wang Yongchang's nose emanated through the thick mask, forming a thin layer of frost on the face protection screen.

Wang Yongchang has not returned home for the New Year for three consecutive years, and as a member of the double police family, his wife has also stuck to her post this year, and can only send her children back to her hometown for her parents to take care of. From ship inspection and certification to dock inspection, Wang Yongchang has always adhered to the front line of duty and epidemic prevention and control.

In the certification hall, police officer Bao Yong is logging on to the "Port Border Inspection Integrated Management Information System" of the National Immigration Administration, and his job is to review the relevant ship forecast declaration information and personnel certification applications. Bao Yong and his colleagues should release relevant information in advance, prompting entry and exit ship companies and those who need to apply for boarding foreign ships and take foreign ships permits to declare entry and exit ships online and handle relevant documents to reduce the risk of epidemic-related caused by personnel contact.

Chinese New Year's Eve night, Bao Yong paid tribute to his relatives in his hometown through video calls. Since the Spring Festival in 2009, he has only returned home three times in fourteen years. "Someone has to do that, and that's exactly what it's my job." Bao Yong said.

The reporter also followed the on-duty police Chi Yida to the front of the big country heavy weapon "Blue Whale No. 1" docked in the jurisdiction. Chi Yida wore protective clothing and used the electronic instruments in his hand to check the luggage and belongings of the shift crew in an orderly manner.

Chi Yida told reporters that he could not accompany his parents, wife and children during the New Year, and he felt some reluctance and guilt. But seeing that because of his work, more crew members can get home safely feels a great responsibility and a great significance.

The cold wind on the shores of Bohai Bay is fierce, the whistling north wind occasionally masks the sound of the waves, and the sound of whistles is heard in the distance. In this "symphony", the policemen of the Yantai Entry-Exit Border Inspection Station of the Shandong Entry-Exit Border Inspection Station insisted on the front line of the national gate and used their own bodies to guard the lights of thousands of homes behind them.
