The third prison, located in the west of the city, was shocked after a preliminary understanding: the prison has two subordinate enterprises, among which the factory of Zhonglian Hongxing Electric Porcelain is in the prison area, allowing prisoners to undergo labor reform. Hongxing is also a second-class state-owned enterprise, and the 1 10KV porcelain sleeve produced by the prison fills two national technical gaps. At the same time, there is a provincial cultural protection unit-Nie Zhengtai in the prison, and the platform nearly three stories high is very antique and magnificent.
On the day we went to prison, our mobile phones stopped. At the entrance, they queued through three gates guarded by armed police and prison guards, then searched and entered the prison through the fourth gate. On both sides of the straight road, the production area is on the right, and the living area and the felon detention area are on the left. In addition to red star electric porcelain, there is also a clothing enterprise in the producing area. All prisoners are under paramilitary management and work in uniform blue and white prison uniforms. If you don't remind yourself where you are, you will be in a trance.
There are armed police and prison guards on duty in turn in the workplace, and every important position in each assembly line has a supervisor (an excellent prisoner) that day. Or because of our visit, there was almost no communication between people in the whole producing area, and the silence was shocking.
Walking through the production area, we came to the living area. In the corner of these two areas, there is Nie Zhengtai with red walls and green tiles, which is very well preserved. Arriving at the prisoner's living area, there are teaching buildings, libraries, hospitals, bathing buildings, living buildings (canteens) and dormitory buildings around, and many paintings and calligraphy works created by prisoners themselves are also displayed next to the flower beds in the square. This is very different from the prison environment I imagined.
At the subsequent meeting, excellent prisoners spoke, and several of them impressed me deeply. A person who participated in the robbery caused death and was sentenced to death with a suspended execution. Before he went to prison, he had only a junior high school education, and now he has been admitted to the national senior technician. He is the technical backbone of Red Star Electric Porcelain. Another loved music while serving his sentence, and wrote more than 100 songs, two of which were selected by Henan Prison Administration. The "prison musician" said that the biggest lesson he learned in prison was "to be a pure person and do things wholeheartedly". Another person, born in 1990, graduated from technical secondary school and was sentenced to four years in prison for theft. After he went to prison, he studied clothing technology, and now he is proficient.
A report will further update our concept that prison is also a school to save people and stand on their own feet. The third prison cooperates with Zhengzhou University and Zhongyuan Institute of Technology to provide skills training for prisoners and set up college entrance examination sites to help young prisoners enter the university campus; Establish a national vocational skill appraisal examination center to certify various technical jobs. In the third prison, there are more than 60 senior technicians alone, and many people have changed from social vagrants before going to prison to people with skills and self-reliance.
The three prisons also have a harsh side. In the detention area and the confinement area, there are also some prisoners with bad attitudes and emotional conflicts. At this time, the prison showed the side of the state machine and violent organs: violence was controlled by violence, and prisoners were used instead of punishment.
In the whole living area, what we feel is not going to jail, but going to college. The land of three swords, if you want to be arrogant, this is Wuxing Mountain; If you want to make progress, this is the Du E Bridge.
Leaving four doors and looking back, there are two real worlds inside and outside the door. ...
