In August 2017, China Post Taiyuan Group assigned a post car to solve Wang's difficulties of delivery in the rural areas.

"The car helped me save lots of time," he said. "My work could be finished before 2 pm, which was unimaginable before."

Wang's dedication earned him lots of honors, including the May 1 Labor Medal, the National Model Worker and the Shanxi Provincial Model Worker awards.

However, due to some health problems, Wang was assigned to work in the post office instead of delivering mail around his district since February 2020.

"Someone needs to continue my work," he said. "At that time, my son was in his last year in the university. Then we made a decision that my son would take my position after graduation to serve over 10,000 residents in the areas."

"I had followed my father several times when I was a young boy and I experienced the laboriousness of his work," said Wang Yuntian, Wang Shouqiu's son. "Now the condition has changed a lot."

"Since my childhood, my father has been my role model," he said. "I will follow his way and will work just as hard like him."
