Clean, tidy - when Chinese and foreign athletes, journalists and other relevant parties evaluate the environment of the "ice ribbon" of the National Speed Skating Hall, the appearance of these two words is extremely high. Behind this praise is the hard work of the "Ice Ribbon" waste removal team.
"There is glue residue on the athlete verification point sign, please clean the waste team." "Okay, let's go right over." At noon on February 6, although there were still several hours to go before the upcoming speed skating men's 5,000-meter final in the afternoon, and the personnel in the stadium were slightly deserted, Gong Dawei, deputy manager of the waste removal field of the "Ice Ribbon" stadium operation team, still kept dealing with the needs of other business areas, "The most important thing in our waste removal work is service, to ensure that other fields can operate in a clean and tidy environment." Gong Dawei said.

There are 60 people in the closed-loop waste removal team of "Ice Ribbon", which looks like a lot, but if it is divided into the closed-loop area of the entire venue, it is a bit "stretched". Gong Dawei said that the venue waste removal work mainly includes cleaning, waste collection and snow and ice removal, "These work is more conventional, but we are a competition venue, so everything should adhere to the athlete-centered." For example, Gong Dawei said that when cleaning the bathroom in the athletes' locker room, the team members will fold the tissues into a small part according to the habits of foreign athletes when replenishing supplies; in order to let the athletes slide on the ice surface near perfection, Gong Dawei and the team members will focus on checking the athletes on the ice area every day, "If this place is not clean, dirty things are likely to be brought to the ice surface, affecting the quality of the ice surface, so every morning, before the athletes start training, we will focus on checking this point." ”
On February 5, the "ice ribbon" officially entered the state of the game, and the time for the venue to open to athletes for training was also advanced, often around 8 o'clock in the morning, there were players who came to the venue to prepare for training. In this case, the working hours of the waste team are also advanced, "We will complete the cleaning work before the athletes arrive, so the whole team will arrive at 6:50 to start work; in the evening we will wait for most of the venue staff to leave the field for another cleaning, usually around 11:30 pm after the end." "Counting down, Gong Dawei and his colleagues have only a few rest time."
Before being responsible for the "ice ribbon" waste removal work, Gong Dawei has been engaged in discipline inspection work, and in the beijing Winter Olympics testing activities last April, he began to accept this new task, "At the beginning, I was really afraid that I would not be able to do it well, because I really did not understand the waste removal. However, after the testing activities and the accumulation of test matches in October last year, Gong Dawei found commonalities between the "old bank" and the "new work", and told reporters: "Both work needs to be meticulous, serious and responsible, and in the discipline inspection work, for a comrade's evaluation, 'more than one word, one word less is not enough', the logic of the waste removal work in this regard is the same, if a small detail is not serious and not responsible, there will be problems." ”
Gong Dawei did bring the rigor and meticulousness of the discipline inspection work to the "ice ribbon", during the test match, he found that some athletes would rely on or sit on the infield protective mat to rest after training and competition, so the waste removal team took these protective mats as the key cleaning points; when chatting with reporters, he could "handy" and turn his back like a stream for the cleaning personnel in the "Epidemic Prevention Manual" and the specifications of the waste disposal process in the closed loop.
"My child is 3 years old, and when he was videotaped, I used to say that dad and co-workers were 'polishing ice ribbons' people. Each of our team will do their best to show the cleanest and neatest side of the 'Ice Ribbon' to the world." Gong Dawei said.
