Combo photo shows Shi Jihui making a hand heart gesture on the Kantan No. 3 offshore oil platform in the northern waters of the South China Sea, Feb. 10, 2021 (L), and his son making the same gesture at their home in Shanghai, east China, Feb. 11, 2021. At present, the platform is drilling offshore oil and gas resources in the northern South China Sea. During the Spring Festival this year, Shi Jihui, the manager of the platform, stuck to his post on the platform and was unable to reunite with his wife and child in Shanghai. This is also the eighth time he spent Chinese Lunar New Year on the drilling platform. As a part of the preventative measures against COVID-19, China has encouraged people to stay locally for the Chinese New Year. Many Chinese chose not to go back to their hometowns for family gatherings, opting instead to stay where they were for the most important holiday of the year. Xinhua reporters helped those who didn't go back to their hometowns "reunite" with their families in pictures. (Xinhua)
