"To help the construction of 'China Sky Eye', in addition to the hard work of scientists, it is inseparable from the strong support of ordinary cadres, so we will focus on ordinary people from all walks of life and praise the dedication of ordinary people. On April 23, on the occasion of the 29th World Book Day, the new book launch of "The Stars Shine - The People Behind China's Sky Eye" was held in the "Tianyan Book House" in Kedu Town, Pingtang County.
"During the construction period of 'Tianyan', I came to Pingtang many times, and I was deeply touched to see that the local people, cadres, and public security police were silently paying to serve the great country. Wei Changguo said that the purpose of the creation is to convey the spirit of selfless dedication of the people of Pingtang and show everyone's hard work.
Wei Changguo said: First, the focus is on writing about the stories of the people who moved away from Dawotai; second, it focuses on the stories of the meteorological bureau and the radio monitoring department in the process of data collection and demonstration; third, it focuses on the local people who directly participated in the construction of the "Tianyan"; and fourth, it focuses on the public security and firefighting groups who provide security for the "Tianyan."
Why is it called "The Stars Shine"?"The title of the book has been repeatedly scrutinized by everyone, and the dedication of ordinary people is like a small star, and the lone star does not shine, but it can shine in the starry sky when it is connected into a piece. Wei Changguo said, "Only unity can achieve great things, and everyone's contribution cannot be ignored." ”
"I would also like to thank the cadres who are unwilling to accept us as the protagonist of the article, who think that it is too modest to have done a 'feat'. As a cadre who went out from Pingtang County, Meng Xuexiang, former vice chairman of the Qiannan Prefecture Federation of Literary and Art Circles, fondly recalled the past service of the construction of "Tianyan", "In the early years, I accompanied scientists to investigate everywhere in Pingtang, and I knew that without the efforts of ordinary people, the construction of "Tianyan" would not be so smooth. ”
"The settlement of 'China Sky Eye' in Pingtang is a major event and a happy event, and how to convey scientific knowledge and build consensus to the masses in Pingtang through the news media is something our team needs to work hard at that time. Fu Man, deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Pingtang County Party Committee, who worked as a journalist in the early years, is not only one of the protagonists in the book, but also one of the authors.
It is reported that "The Stars Shine - The People Behind China's Sky Eye" was established in the first half of 2022, bringing together more than 20 authors and taking nearly two years to complete. The book contains 23 articles with more than 160,000 words, and is published and distributed by Guizhou Science and Technology Publishing House, a subsidiary of Guizhou Publishing Group.
"Starting today, it can be purchased offline in Xinhua bookstores across the country, and online ones will be distributed in an orderly manner after April 26, and interested friends can enter the title of the book on Tmall to search and buy. The person in charge of the publicity and promotion department of Guizhou Science and Technology Publishing House said.
