June 7, Qiongzhou, Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Center.
At noon, the busiest No. 1 work position witnessed a New Yuan No. 3 rocket ascending into the sky with a long flame trailing behind it.
Standing several kilometers away from the launch site, Ding Biyun looked up and watched the rocket until it disappeared into the horizon.
"Mr. Ding, Mr. Ding!"
Xiong Cheng ran over, shouting loudly. His white shirt was soaked with sweat, which made him, along with his dark skin and safety helmet, look like a construction worker on the job.
"Mr. Ding, it's time for the group photo, hurry over."
"Alright, alright."
Ding Biyun still held his gaze towards the sky, as if worried that the rocket might suddenly fall back down.
By the time Xiong Cheng pulled him over to the podium, Ding was immediately surrounded and adorned with a big red flower, squeezed into the center for the group photo.
