Strict inspection of the embankment is Chen's top priority, and the day shift and the evening shift rotate by 12 hours. Every time Chen goes to the embankment, he does not forget to pin on his left chest the Party emblem that he has kept wearing for many years, and he always reminds himself that he is a Communist Party member. "I think this is where my duty lies. Although my personal strength alone is little, if everyone has such a strong belief, then we can definitely keep the dike and the city," he says.
Even in hot and humid weather, Chen is unwilling to be left behind. Chen's hands are covered with itchy red bumps by mosquitoes, but Chen is very pleased to see that his son looks so much like him back then.
