Context: The 80th Anniversary of the Victory in the War of Resistance and Its Lasting Impact
Sep. 3,2025, marks the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People’s War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War. 80 years ago today, the Chinese people, along with the people of the world, through their unyielding will and heroic struggle, completely defeated fascism.
After 14 years of unyielding and bloody struggle, the Chinese people ultimately defeated the vicious Japanese militarist invaders and achieved the great victory of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.
This great victory completely shattered the Japanese militarist plot to colonize and enslave China.
To commemorate this important historical moment, a grand commemorative meeting and military parade were held in Tiananmen Square, Beijing. This was the first military parade to comprehensively advance China's modernization into a new journey, and it holds great historical significance.
Companies Arrange for Employees To Watch the Event Together
Although September 3rd fell on a workday, Wednesday, SH LINK's management decided to organize a collective viewing of the military parade for all employees. This move demonstrates the company's commitment to employee patriotism education and its support for historical commemorations.
A dedicated viewing area was set up to ensure smooth operation of the live broadcast equipment. Employees could watch this historic event at any time, ensuring they wouldn't miss precious moments due to work.
SH LINK's approach is not unique. Many companies across the country have facilitated the viewing of military parades for their employees. Some have opted for a "group viewing" program, notifying employees to gather in conference rooms upon arrival to watch the live broadcast on large screens.
Other companies have directly provided paid leave, allowing employees to spend time at home with their families and fully appreciate the grand ceremony while watching the television.
Watching the scene, the employees responded enthusiastically and moved people
When the parade began, the entire viewing area fell silent, employees glued to the large screen. When the salutes rang out and the national flag was hoisted, everyone stood up and sang the national anthem, their eyes filled with pride.
The awe-inspiring images of the troops marching in unison, the officers and soldiers displaying heroic spirit, and the advanced equipment arrayed majestically filled the employees' hearts. As sons and daughters of China, witnessing the glory and strength of our motherland, a sense of pride welled up in everyone.
A young employee lamented, "Although we weren't able to be there in person, the company's organized collective viewing still allowed us to clearly experience China's elegance, charm, and strength."
Another department head remarked, "The grand parade showcased China's awe-inspiring spirit. That unique aura of a great nation fills every Chinese citizen with pride. As employees of our company, we should be guided by our unwavering ideals and convictions, integrating the hardworking spirit of our military members into every aspect of our work."
Historical Review: The Great Victory 80 Years Ago
On September 2, 1945, Japan signed the instrument of surrender aboard the USS Missouri, anchored in Tokyo Bay, under the watchful eyes of representatives from nine surrendering nations, including China. The following day, September 3, China declared a national celebration, with a one-day holiday and the hoisting of the national flag for three days.
On February 27, 2014, the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress passed legislation officially designating September 3 as the Victory Day of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. The choice of this date for the military parade carries profound historical legitimacy and symbolic significance.
The Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression is an important component of the world's anti-fascist war, beginning the earliest, lasting the longest, and exacting the heaviest price.
At the enormous cost of over 35 million military and civilian casualties, China won a great victory in the 14-year war of resistance against Japanese aggression.
Take from history the power to move forward.
Watching the military parade is not only about reviewing history but also about drawing strength from it to move forward. As an article in the People's Daily stated: "Remember history, cherish the memory of the martyrs, cherish peace, and create the future."
September 3rd this year marks the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, a grand festival for the Chinese people and all peace-loving countries and peoples around the world.
Promoting the great spirit of patriotism and the spirit of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression is of great significance to corporate development and team building. SH LINK's management stated that organizing the military parade is intended to help employees cultivate a deep sense of patriotism and strengthen their ideals and convictions.
One employee said with deep emotion, "Although we can't stand guard for our country like soldiers do, ensuring product quality and promoting 'Made in China' to the world is also a form of patriotism." These simple words capture the new meaning of patriotism among modern Chinese people.
Looking Ahead: The Company and Employees Grow Together
After the viewing, SH LINK held a brief discussion session. Colleagues expressed their commitment to incorporating the discipline, teamwork, and patriotic spirit displayed during the military parade into their daily work.
Company leadership announced a commitment to further transforming the spirit of the War of Resistance into practical actions for technological innovation and service upgrades. With cutting-edge technology and stronger protection capabilities, SH LINK will resolutely fulfill its corporate mission on the "new battlefield" of the digital age.
Going forward, SH LINK plans to organize more patriotic education activities, including visits to the War of Resistance Memorial Museum and screenings of films about the war, allowing employees to revisit history and remember the past through various means.
Companies are not only economic organizations but also vital components of society. By organizing viewings of the military parade, SH LINK has strengthened team cohesion and employee sense of belonging, injecting spiritual motivation into the company's long-term development.
