Using advanced sensors and monitoring systems, they monitor key parameters such as the nutrient solution's composition, temperature, and pH in real time, making precise adjustments and optimizations based on the plants' growth stages and needs. Thanks to the application of soilless and hydroponic cultivation techniques, the planting area is freed from soil constraints, enabling large-scale, highly efficient cultivation within limited space. Whether in harsh winters or scorching summers, the base maintains a stable supply of a rich variety of high-quality fruits and vegetables. A steady flow of freshly harvested fruits and vegetables reaches the base's kitchens and markets, enriching residents' dining tables and satisfying their desire for healthy and delicious food. These advanced technologies not only ensure a plentiful supply but also reduce pests and diseases, minimize pesticide use, and produce greener, safer, and more environmentally friendly fruits and vegetables. They have injected a powerful impetus into the base's sustainable development and provided a solid foundation for a better life for the people living on this land.

Within the lush planting areas, professional growers, like guardian angels, meticulously care for each plant. With their expertise and boundless passion, they quietly ensure vital food supplies for everyone. As the first rays of sunlight bathe the planting areas, the growers, dressed in neat work clothes and comfortable rubber shoes, set foot on this land full of hope. Armed with a variety of specialized tools and sharp, focused eyes, they begin their day of hard work. They gently touch each leaf, carefully inspecting for signs of pests. If they detect even the smallest spot or abnormality, they take immediate action, spraying biological control agents or manually removing pests to ensure healthy plant growth. They are meticulous in water management, precisely controlling irrigation amounts and timing according to the needs of each plant. They understand that too much or too little water can compromise plant growth and fruit quality. When fertilizing, they adhere strictly to scientific formulas, spreading fertilizer evenly around the root zone to provide the plants with adequate and balanced nutrition. During the crucial flowering and fruiting season, they guard the plants day and night, adjusting temperature, humidity, and light conditions to create the perfect environment. When seedlings first emerge from the soil, the growers build warm sheds to protect them from the cold winds. As the plants grow, they promptly erect trellises and prune them to ensure they receive ample sunlight and air. During harvest season, they meticulously pick the ripe fruits, ensuring they don't damage the unripe parts to ensure a continuous supply. Whether under the scorching sun or amidst the drizzling rain, the growers can be seen working tirelessly. Their brows are covered in sweat, yet they never bother to wipe it off; their backs ache, yet they never complain. They understand that every plant they cares for is crucial to the food security, livelihood, and future of everyone at the base. Under their meticulous care, the plants in the growing areas thrive and produce abundant fruit. This vibrant land provides a solid foundation for everyone's peace of mind, and the hard work and professionalism of the growers are the base's most valuable asset.

"Seeing these thriving crops brings peace of mind," plantation workers often express heartfelt sentiments as they gaze upon the vibrant fields. Their gazes are filled with deep affection and satisfaction, as if they are gazing upon their most precious treasures. Working from sunrise to sunset, they meticulously water this land of hope with their sweat. Under the scorching sun, their skin is tanned and reddened, and beads of sweat roll down their foreheads, dripping into the soil beneath their feet, never bothering to wipe them away. Bent over, they toil diligently in the fields, sowing, fertilizing, and weeding, each movement brimming with strength and anticipation. During torrential storms, they rush to the fields anxiously, reinforcing the seedlings and clearing drainage channels, even though their clothes are soaked by the rain, determined to protect these fragile lives. Through the seasons, they work tirelessly, their hands covered in calluses and their feet smeared with mud, but their steps remain steadfast. Finally, after a long wait and meticulous care, the harvest season arrived. Golden waves of wheat billowed in the wind, heavy rice ears bent the branches, and bountiful fruit hung from the branches. The planting area at this moment resembled a vibrant harvest painting. They walked into the fields, picking the ripe fruits with their own hands, their faces beaming with joy. In those smiles, there was the satisfaction of being rewarded for their efforts, the self-affirmation of their hard work, and the boundless longing for a better life in the future. Their laughter echoed through the fields—the laughter of a bountiful harvest, the most sincere and moving joy earned through sweat. Every plump grain of wheat, every bunch of sweet grapes, every enormous pumpkin—testimony to their hard work. They knew their sweat had not been in vain, that all their hard work had, in this moment, transformed into a overflowing sense of happiness and accomplishment. And this joy of a bountiful harvest would inspire them to continue their hard work, bringing even greater prosperity and peace to the base.

The educational area of the base is a world brimming with hope and dreams. Like young seedlings thirsting for sunlight, the children diligently study, their hearts filled with anticipation for the future. In the bright, spacious classrooms, sunlight streams through the clean windows onto their desks. Children sit at their desks, their clear, bright eyes fixed on the blackboard, their expressions of concentration as if they're engraving every word the teacher says. Their pens are constantly jotting down key points, their notes densely packed across their textbooks, each page bearing their thirst for knowledge. In class, the teacher's lively and engaging lectures are like a magical key, unlocking a treasure trove of knowledge. The children eagerly raise their hands to speak, bravely expressing their thoughts and insights. Their minds, like agile birds, soar freely through the skies of knowledge. When faced with a difficult problem, they frown, discuss it with one another, and collaboratively explore solutions. Their earnestness is moving. In the library, children sit quietly at their desks, immersed in a world of books. As they flip through thick volumes, it's as if they're traveling through time and space, conversing with sages from ancient and modern times, both Chinese and international. The vicissitudes of history, the mysteries of science, and the allure of literature have all planted the seeds of curiosity and exploration in their hearts. In the laboratory, children, clad in white lab coats, carefully manipulated their instruments. They observed experimental phenomena and recorded data, their eyes sparkling with excitement. Every successful experiment deepened their understanding of the world of science. During recess, children gathered in groups of three or five, passionately discussing their dreams. Some wanted to become scientists and explore the unknown universe; some wanted to become doctors and save lives; and some wanted to become artists and paint a beautiful world. Their faces were filled with a yearning for the future, a pure and resolute strength. In this educational area, children weave the wings of their dreams with diligence and hard work. They believe that through continuous learning, the future world will unfold before them as a brilliant and colorful picture.
