Hu Zhongming, born in June 1964, is from Qingdao, Shandong province. He has won second class merit 1 time and third class merit three times. Hu Zhongming joined the navy at the age of 15, and he was a very powerful "learning officer" in his army. Successfully completed the captain training of conventional submarines and nuclear submarines and the qualification training of destroyer captains. These three exams are very difficult, and officers who can pass them all are very rare in the whole army and even in the navies of various countries.

He used to be the captain of the No.1 boat of the Type 094 strategic nuclear submarine, and was called "the captain of the senior colonel". We should know that the captains of guided missile destroyers, the main force of the PLA navy, are basically colonel ranks, while the trainee captains are lieutenant colonel ranks.

Hong's experience

In 2008, when a new nuclear submarine was carrying out the "autopilot deepening test", the autopilot suddenly lost power and got stuck in the position of the underwater rudder, causing the submarine to sink rapidly. At this time, Hu Zhongming kept calm and decisively launched the disposal plan, which successfully avoided a serious accident.

Hu Zhongming was promoted to deputy chief of staff of the navy in 20 16, to vice admiral in 20 19, to commander of submarine base 1 in 2020, and transferred to Ren Haijun as chief of staff in February 20021. As an experienced commander in actual combat, foreign media generally believe that this is because China pays attention to putting those who can win the battle in an important position to ensure that they can fight and win the battle.
