Chapter 28 postscript

In September 2011, it was finally published.This is the book that I have had the longest writing cycle so far. It took three years and I changed the draft nine times. It was the worst one. I had already completed 150,000 to 160,000 words. I am an ordinary firefighting female police officer working at the grassroots level. During my career of more than ten years, I have done firefighting supervision and inspection, construction review and acceptance, participated in the investigation of fire causes, worked as a back-office financial officer, and planned large-scale firefighting publicity He has also been to the front line of fire and rescue and relief countless times.It can be said that I have a relatively in-depth understanding of the responsibilities, honors and dangers of the firefighting profession.

Firefighters can be called "a thousand days to raise a soldier, and a thousand days to use a soldier". It is one of the most arduous, arduous and dangerous professions in peacetime.I have witnessed with my own eyes the comrades-in-arms around me, they devoted themselves to their careers with loyalty and enthusiasm, and rushed into the dangerous and unpredictable fire and disaster scenes without fear or fear.Faced with the difficulties in the development of the firefighting industry, they will also be confused. They will also suffer when they face the situation where their families and responsibilities cannot be balanced... Many people are scarred physically and mentally, and more people still have no complaints. regret.I have also witnessed countless times that my comrades wailed in grief when they were discharged from the army, changed jobs, or retired. The tears of the man did not shed when he was bleeding from the wound, but when he said goodbye to the firefighting profession.I dare to say that Chinese firefighters, we firefighters, are the soldiers of the new era who have the most sense of professional responsibility, the most daring to fight, and the most willing to sacrifice and contribute.

Therefore, very early on, I conceived to write a novel about firefighting.The gist of the novel is not only to vigorously promote the spirit of daring to fight and win, sacrifice and dedication of firefighters, but also to highlight the difficulties existing in firefighting work in different historical periods after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the firefighters' thinking about their career, and how to solve problems step by step. Continue to forge ahead, and then serve the arduous journey of social development. I hope that more people pay attention to and understand fire protection.

I hope that every citizen will pay more attention to the ability of self-protection and mutual assistance, and ultimately improve the ability of the whole society to resist disasters, so that there will be fewer fire disasters and fewer casualties and losses. The prototypes of the fire police officers in this book are all from my comrades-in-arms, and after artistic processing, blending and upgrading, they become He Zisheng, Yu Manjiang, Ren Kaishan, Yu Lisa, Gao Xin and other characters.They are real and perceptible, with happiness and anger, shortcomings and faults, loyalty to career, ups and downs in life, and love that can't be met... When I write, I often have an illusion, feeling They are real people who talk to me in a parallel time and space.

In fact, every character in this book, including the first protagonist, has gains and losses, and they are constantly faced with choices and even choices. This is not only real life, but also like our ongoing firefighting career. In the period of historical development, we will encounter different difficulties and predicaments, and we have to face them, we may encounter setbacks, we may be confused... However, we firefighters will never shrink back because of this. Our career has only a starting point and never an end. Our career is full of challenges, but also shoulders sustenance. I believe that my comrades-in-arms will, as always, continue to move forward and move forward forever in the face of trials!

Thanks to my comrades-in-arms, with your care, help and support, I can successfully complete the creation of this book; thanks to my family and friends, with your tolerance, understanding and support, I can overcome the hardships of writing. I am grateful to my father who has passed away for 14 years. It is you who taught me honesty, steadfastness and kindness, which are the most precious treasures in my life.
