Best Wishes For Wenchuan 2008

At 14:28 on May 12, 2008, this is a black time node.

Li Nan, editor of the southern weekend, lifted tears from a picture of the earthquake scene, and the feeling of backlog in the bottom of his heart burst out.

Where are you?

Are you still alive?

Did you hear me calling your name?

Don't be afraid. Look at me.

Even if everything you like doesn't exist, would you please look at me?

Wherever you are, I will find you.

Ten fingers must be saved to save you.

Grief came pouring in.

"How close you can be!"

This is the belief of countless journalists after an earthquake.

Death's mourning, life's tenacity, the shock of love, like shock waves impacting on the eyes and mind of the reporter.

The boy was called Chuan Yi in December 18th, Chongqing.

China Youth Daily Chongqing Railway Station reporter Julia has been pregnant for more than 9 months, quietly waiting for the arrival of children at home.

In the early morning of May 14th, when she arrived in Beichuan, she returned to Chongqing after more than a week's interviews, and was immersed in great depression and sadness.

"Have colleagues and friends worried about me, saying whether the child will be too sensitive in the future?

Too melancholy?

I said no, he would be very strong.

My father and I have already thought that if you have a boy, you can call it Chuan Yi, and give birth to a girl.

What does it mean to be a mother?

For the expectant mother Julia, maybe there are more things.

In the morning of May 14th, the Beichuan high school, located near Ren Ping, near Beichuan, was situated here. At that time, it was squeezed by the mountain, many roads had been broken, and people were moving from inside to outside. A woman about 40 years old was stumbling away from outside.

A man asked where she came from. She fell on the man's shoulders and gasped.

She came out of a hydropower station in the mountains and turned over ten mountains overnight, thirsty and hungry to eat some roadside bean sprouts. She came to find his daughter and his daughter was studying in Beichuan high school.

Beichuan middle school is in ruins. Julia doesn't know if the mother can find her child.

Julia went to Kyushu stadium in Mianyang, where she met Mr. Ye, teacher of Beichuan hope primary school.

"She reminds me of Xiang Linsao," she tossed and said, "why is it not as early as a second, not late?"

Miss Ye's daughter was hit by a falling beam, and the children who ran in front of her daughter picked up their lives. The children who ran behind their daughters were hiding in the collapsed space, and they were saved.

Why is it that the daughter can't hide?

When mom's food and sleep are uneasy, she can't forget it.

The daughter wore a watch on her hand, and she wore a pair. She remembered that the day before was mother's day, and her daughter had been sitting in the living room waiting for her to go home, saying, "Mom, happy mother's Day".

The mother who has lost her daughter has lost her happiness forever.

He Yanguang, a veteran photojournalist in China.

In May, in He Yanguang's footage, there were two fathers, one of whom was carrying his 17 year old son.

The father was thin and weak, but his son was so tall that his tall son could no longer stand up. He fell on his father's back and dragged his feet to the ground.

The father walked 25 kilometre mountain roads, and his son was slowly digging out his father's pick. He wanted to return his son to his home and bury it on the hillside behind the house.

There was also a father who wrapped his 9 year old son in green thin and howled to the sky.

The father lost his son as if he had collapsed a mountain and destroyed a lamp of hope.

So, in the twinkling of the earth shaking, so many parents, so many teachers, they chose to save. They took off their wings and gave their children to fly.

The land will be wrapped up like cotton balls in December 19th, Hangzhou.

City Express reporter Fu Yongjun said that he still has some regrets so far.

In July, he took a vacation and went to Beichuan again.

When I go there, I bring more than 100 films, I want to send them to the parties in the photos, hoping to give them a little comfort, but half of the photos are sent out, many people have lost their whereabouts.

Fu Yongjun arrived in Beichuan middle school in May 15th.

"The ruins are full of books. I saw a diary with blood stained with a big head sticker. It was a beautiful little girl with long hair."

There is a diary in the diary. About a month before the earthquake, the little girl is full of beautiful fantasy to the earth. "Now science is so developed. If one day an earthquake happens, the earth will wrap it up like a cotton ball, and people will not be hurt."

There are several phone numbers in the diary, teachers, parents, sisters, and classmates.

"Is she all right?"

Fu Yongjun was eager to know the answer and began to telephone.

The teacher's phone was out of order, and his parents couldn't get through.

My sister worked in Guangdong and came back to find her sister for two days.

On the second day, Fu Yong Jun joined his sister and accompanied her in Mianyang to find the internet post.

I didn't see you.

When the elder sister did not give up, she continued to look for her sister as a volunteer.

Later, mom and dad got in touch and knew that the house had collapsed.

Parting sister, Fu Yongjun left 1000 yuan, sister not to live and die, Fu Yong army left behind.

"My sister moved me very much. She has been volunteering for a few months before returning to Guangdong."

Little hand tightly holding pen in December 22nd, Meishan, Sichuan.

Liu Zhongjun's earthquake and regret -- a photographer's Wenchuan earthquake image has been officially published.

Liu Zhongjun is a signing photographer of Xinhua news agency. Since May 13th, he has gone to the disaster area 8 times, and has taken more than 8000 pictures, which contains 400 moments.

The most stirring of all is the hand holding the pen in the ruins.

Liu Zhongjun clearly recalled: "in May 16th, I came to Dongqi middle school, and a building collapsed. The life detector in the hands of the rescuers suddenly showed signs of life. The crane lifted the precast slabs together, but no survivors were found.

I saw a lot of hands, all kinds of shapes, because the aftershocks kept coming, so I didn't get near. I stood in the distance and took a panoramic view.

The scene continued to clear up, when I saw a child's hand in the camera which was particularly harsh, and there was a red object on his hand. I shouted subconsciously, "wait a minute!"

He ran up to shoot this hand.

At this time, I found that I was holding a red pen in my hand.

At that time, the mood was very complex, and I wanted to cry, but I felt this hand was so strong. It gave me strength.

After the photo was published, countless people imagined the face of the child, imagining what the child was doing when the death came.

Why is he holding the pen tightly? It's a precious gift.

Hope for survival?

Or comfort in the dark?

So young hands, expressing so strong power!

The sad poet said, "you let all living people hear the cry of life!"

The foreign exchange commentary said: "holding the pen tightly, shining the hope of China!"

On May 19th, on the day of mourning, the national flag was lowered, and a group of clenched fist was uplifting in Tiananmen square.

Deng Xiaodong, a Shanxi boy working in Beijing, first shouted the slogan of "China refueling". More and more people shouted after him, and more and more fist raised to the sky......

Li Jianquan, a photojournalist of China Youth Daily, has remembers the situation for more than six months. "I always told myself to be restrained, calm down and not be too excited.

It is a kind of depression after catharsis, a kind of strong, a kind of encouragement, urge people to go up.

On the edge of hell, there is no tremor to urge people to go up and there is the salute doll, the cola boy...

A poet said, "we are on the edge of hell, but we are not shivering".

At that time, all kinds of short messages from the disaster area were still on the mobile phone of the whole nation.

In July 2nd, the China Youth Daily published the "Sichuan people" written by reporter Lu Yuegang. It contains all kinds of short messages that reflect the special humour of Sichuan people. These messages are best understood in Sichuan dialect.

"A survivor of the Wenchuan earthquake was rescued by the Russian rescue team.

The reporter interviewed him and asked him how he felt. The survivors thought for a long time and said, "dog day's earthquake is so fierce!

Lao Tzu was dug out to see the foreigner, and thought he had shocked Lao Tzu to go abroad.

"A man was buried for more than 50 hours. He was rescued and sober. Reporters went to interview him. He saw a reporter carrying a notebook computer and forgot to ask reporters about pain. Can your notebook get online?

The reporter replied, yes.

He said, "can you help me to see if the market has gone up?"

There are many couplets, one of which is: running early and running late into the night to run in the black capital; running away from the running does not seem to take off the life; horizontal group - sleep at ease.

If you look at such a passage, no one will know whether it is true or not.

Looking at such couplets, tears seem to have found the courage to heal.

Lu Yuegang, a Ya'an native of Sichuan, visited the disaster area many times after the earthquake. He was very sensitive to the fact that in the face of such an irresistible natural disaster such as earthquakes, the attitude of Sichuan people was shocking. "They showed a unique character of being optimistic, tough and humorous, and their grief was not pure grief, comforting in sadness, and having their own philosophy of life. We should not ignore this mentality."

On December 19th, on CCTV's screen, a more than 60 year old woman walked in a row of simple houses in the disaster area. Her name was Li Mingcui and Kitagawa Hito. The earthquake was buried after being buried for 164 hours. At that time, she had multiple fractures and organs failure.

Six months later, Li Mingcui, a living soul, stood up.

In December 20th, the new town planning in Beichuan was settled.

A safe and livable new Beichuan is about to stand.
