身囿方寸轮椅，心有锋锐长戟。近日，中央各大媒体集中报道了“时代楷模”、国防科技大学计算机学院研究员王戟的先进事迹，让我们看到一位生命不息、冲锋不止的科研工作者的风采。王戟经常说，“要做‘卡脖子’技术的攻坚者，而不是追热点的逐利者”“做科研，就要把问题做爆”，给记者留下了很深的印象。这些坦诚直白的话语，道出了一名科研工作者纯粹的治学信条。身患重病、常年依靠透析维持生命，他却将轮椅当作“战车”，以代码为利剑，不断向着前瞻性、战略性科研领域奋勇冲锋。爱因斯坦说过，“我不能容忍这样的科学家，他拿出一块木板来，寻找最薄的地方，然后在容易钻透的地方钻许多孔”“有人喜欢钻薄的，而我喜欢钻厚的”。做科研如果避难就易、逐利而行，不敢或不愿“找厚的地方钻孔”，也许见效很快，但只会是一堆“鱼虾”，而不是一条“蛟龙”。投身科研数十年，王戟始终瞄准国家战略需求，深耕高可信软件这片前沿硬核领域。 “一些问题不太费力就解决得很完美，那说明这个问题已经被解决得差不多了，我们得换个问题去研究了”……王戟不断鼓励学生“做学问要往深里钻，趁着有大块时间钻深一点”。相对于从事热门专业，搞短平快，发表论文相对容易，可以快出成果、多拿奖，王戟这个专业对数学能力要求很高，从事相关研究的人并不多。冲着“卡脖子”技术、沿着认定方向，王戟和他所带团队一直坚定往前走，逐条攻坚、逐项突破，率先搭建起我国高可信软件理论体系。身体病痛不断侵蚀他的健康，许多关键思路的梳理，完成于透析治疗的间隙；许多复杂公式的推导，诞生于轮椅前的书案。但他从未放缓攻坚脚步，因为他深知“软件也有硬核”，关键核心技术要不来、买不来、讨不来，唯有自主创新方可突围。科研大道，唯恒致远。科技自立自强是国家强盛之基、安全之要，不仅是发展问题，更是生存问题。浅尝辄止的治学态度、避重就轻的工作作风，无法适应新时代科研发展需求。敢于向“卡脖子”技术攻坚，主动破解难题，以自我加压换取技术突围，王戟的这份闯劲与韧劲，使他成为高可信领域里站在山顶的人，也矗立起广大科研工作者的精神标杆。 “登高而招，臂非加长也，而见者远；探索不止，路非拓宽也，而境界新。”“十五五”时期是科技强国建设的关键攻坚期。全面实施创新驱动发展战略，攻关军事斗争准备急需的关键核心技术，在一些战略必争领域形成独特优势，掌握军事竞争主动权，需要一大批像王戟这样的军事科研工作者沉下心来、聚力攻关，把“冷板凳”坐热，让先进科学技术尽快转化为现实战斗力。王戟的微信头像是很多个π缠绕在一起组成的图案。在数学领域，π代表着无限延伸的边界，也是永不止步的探索。就像他的人生，身体虽囿于一方天地，精神却循着求知的方向无限延伸。生命以痛相加，他却报之以歌。一架轮椅困不住向着真理跋涉的灵魂，而无数这样向深处扎根、向难处攻坚的灵魂汇聚在一起，便是我们走好科技自立自强之路最坚实也最持久的力量源泉。

Summary

Machine summary

A PLA Daily August 1st commentary profiles Wang Ji, a National University of Defense Technology computer science researcher designated a 时代楷模 (Model of the Era), framing his decades of work on 高可信软件 (high-assurance software) and resistance to chasing popular, low-risk research as the institutional ideal for defense scientists. The piece explicitly links his example to 卡脖子 (chokehold) technology priorities and calls for military researchers to convert advanced science into 战斗力 (real combat power) during the 14th Five-Year Plan period. This is standard political-work content keyed to Army Day; its value is as a record of how PLA institutional media frames the tension between publishable, incentive-friendly research and strategically directed hard-problem work — a documented friction point in China's defense science establishment.
