On November 15th, in the second lecture hall of the conference center of the school, the school of energy and power engineering carried out the theme education around the theme of "Four Generations of 'Four Spans' Strong Power and Passion Burning to Help the 'Three Rurals' - Dialogue with Professor Li Detao, the winner of the Outstanding Contribution Award for Combustion", Professor Li Detao was invited to discuss with young teachers and students, Li Hong, Vice President of Jiangsu University, Kang Can, Secretary of the Party Committee of the school, Liu Qing, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee of the school, and some young teachers and student representatives attended the meeting. The meeting was presided over by Kang Can.
Prof. Kang Can pointed out in the opening speech that this year, General Secretary Xi Jinping explained the connotation of China's unique educator spirit in a letter to the representatives of outstanding teachers in China, Professor Li Detao is a model of teaching and educating people, concentrating on scientific research, and consciously practicing the spirit of educators.
At the beginning of the meeting, Prof. Li Detao shared his experience of overcoming difficult conditions, tackling scientific research problems, and devoting himself to improving the unsteady combustion process of diesel engines at low temperatures, helping the development of China's domestic gas turbine industry and the "three rural" undertakings, serving the needs of the country and the people.
Liu Qing, deputy secretary of the Party Committee of the school, learned the spirit of scientists on the spot, and encouraged young teachers and students to take Professor Li Detao as an example to carry forward and inherit the spirit of scientists, demonstrate patriotic dedication in integrating into the overall situation of the country, dare to be the first in scientific research work, and make their own contributions to the realization of China's high-level scientific and technological self-reliance.
"This is a meaningful discussion on ideological and political teaching materials, so that every one of us here has been guided by our thoughts and stirred by our souls," said Shao Xia, a young teacher. The representatives of the young teachers listened to the talk, combined with the study of books such as "My Life, the Self-Report of a Grassroots Professor" and "The Road of Four Generations of "Four Spans" Science and Technology People" edited by Professor Li, and sincerely admired his determination to continuously create conditions and serve the "three rural" without asking for returns.

He will strive for excellence, continuously improve his academic research level, continuously enhance the influence of our university in the discipline of engineering thermophysics, and make dynamic contributions to the establishment of the "double first-class" of the university and the national "double carbon" strategic goals.
Ph.D. student Qian Zhang said, "I was completely moved by Professor Li's down-to-earth and hard-working scientific research spirit, exploring unknown areas and facing difficult pressures, I was also puzzled before, but now I have found the best answer from Professor Li's personal experience, which is to stay curious, persevere, unite and cooperate and have love."
Finally, Vice President Li Hong congratulated Professor Li Detao on winning the Outstanding Contribution Award for Combustion, and pointed out in his concluding speech that Professor Li led the team to achieve fruitful scientific research results and cultivated a large number of outstanding internal combustion engine talents under extremely difficult conditions. She hopes that everyone can bravely climb the peak of scientific research and help China's high-level science and technology to become self-reliant and self-reliant.
