Twenty-three years ago, Hong Zhanhui, a Henan boy aged 15, was admitted to Xihua No.1 Middle School, a key high school in Henan Province, with excellent results. After receiving the letter of acceptance, he said, "I want to earn money to study and support my family." After that, he helped others to do odd jobs on the construction site, earned 700 yuan to pay tuition fees, and began a hard life of taking his sister to school.
In the face of multiple difficulties over the years, Hong Zhanhui has not been defeated, but has moved forward firmly. In 2005, she was named as one of the top ten people who moved China because she went to college behind her back.
What has Hong Zhanhui experienced? It's been 23 years. How is he now?
First, Hong Zhanhui, who is "poor, thinking about change, not falling behind the ambition of Qingyun"
1June 1982, Hong Zhanhui was born in a poor family in Xihua County, Henan Province. He has a brother and a sister, but his sister is not his own sister. His own sister died at the age of one. Now my sister was picked up from a big tree by her mentally ill father one day on 1995, and just turned one year old.
Although "my sister recovered", my father was often ill and could not work at all. It is really difficult for a family of five to support themselves by their parents. So, mom asked Hong Zhanhui to send her sister away.
However, Hong Zhanhui held her sister in her arms and didn't want her to suffer in the cold wind. She cried and said to her mother, "You don't want it, I'll keep it." Later, he named the baby girl Hong.
However, fate did not care for him because of his kindness, but brought him tests again and again.
Because my father's mental illness often recurs, once it breaks out, he will throw pots and pans, and he has broken his mother many times. Mother couldn't stand such a day. Suddenly one morning, she steamed steamed bread for a week and left home.
From then on, 13-year-old Hong Zhanhui not only took on the responsibility of the whole family, but also told herself that no matter how difficult it was, she would keep on studying. When he was in junior high school, he left his sister at his aunt's house and picked her up after school at night to sleep with him. He has been wary of his father's madness and harm to his sister.
Hong Zhanhui worked hard, but fortunately he didn't fall behind in his studies. 1July, 1997, he was admitted to Xihua No.1 Middle School, a key high school in Henan Province with excellent results.
When he received the admission notice, he was packing and preparing to go out to work. He told reporters, "I want to earn money to study, and I want to support my family."
However, this job is not easy to find. After two or three days of hard work, Hong Zhanhui got a job transporting nail guns on construction sites.
He worked hard for a summer vacation and earned more than 700 yuan. He borrowed it before he went to high school 1000.
However, after entering high school, his father's illness recurred, which caused him to interrupt his studies. He begged for help everywhere, knelt down to the doctor in a mental hospital and even got kicked out.
Later, a hospital offered to treat his father for free, but Hong Zhanhui just paused for a moment. But he still faces difficulties and needs to take care of his sister and let her go to primary school near high school.
In order to earn money to support his family, Hong Zhanhui, like an adult, does small businesses and odd jobs. At school, he used his spare time to sell yi'x study materials, pens, books, tapes and shoes and socks, and also worked as a handyman in a restaurant near the school. He sacrificed almost all his rest time while taking care of his studies and livelihood. In order to take care of his sister, he works hard.
To this end, he studied in high school for five years before graduating. In July 2003, the results of the college entrance examination were announced. He was admitted to Huaihua University, a famous school in western Hunan, and later went to college with his sister.
In college, Hong Zhanhui not only studied, but also continued to sell materials and do odd jobs. After learning about his situation, the school leaders allowed him to take his sister to college and launched a donation activity for him.
In this way, with the help of the school and his part-time job, Hong Zhanhui not only completed the junior college course, but also entered Central South University in 2006, and successfully obtained the MBA degree of Central South University on 201/kloc-0.
Second, we should have a kind heart.
Hong Zhanhui's filial piety and sense of responsibility are earth-shattering. In 2005, he was named one of the top ten people who moved China, one of the top ten outstanding young people in China in 2006, and one of the Olympic torchbearers in Changsha, Hunan Province in 2008.
Be grateful! In 2006, my father's condition improved obviously, my mother and my working brother also went home one after another, and the family finally got together.
While getting help from others, Hong Zhanhui also tried his best to help others.
Since 2006, with the help of the school and the government, he has established a responsibility fund for the educational assistance of poor students. In order to promote the ideological education of teenagers, he was invited to give 150 inspirational speeches all over the country. He also visited poor mountainous areas in Hunan and Henan many times to communicate with students with difficulties and donate school supplies. He said, "I will try my best to help people in need."
In less than two years, the publishing house has published six books for him, including more than 2.5 million copies of China Boy Hong Zhanhui. However, he kept the royalties for himself, but donated them to those middle school students who had difficulties. He said: "Although the royalties are not much, I hope to give them a chance to get out of their misery."
Third, what now?
After Hong Zhanhui graduated with a master's degree, he served as deputy secretary of the Communist Youth League Committee in huaihua university for five years, and 20 16 served as assistant to the president and secretary of the Communist Youth League Committee of Hunan Information College. 20 18 He gave up the bright future of the school. In order to break through the bottleneck of education, with the support of caring enterprises, he founded vocational schools such as Xianghuazhong in Changsha, and he served as the principal himself.
Looking back on Hong Zhanhui's growing process is touching. After the disaster, I tasted the taste of life. When he was a child of 12 years old, he took responsibility for a child who was not his own sister and shouldered the burden of supporting his family. He told himself: "I can't fall down, I want to go to college and change my destiny." He did it. Now he still looks weak, but mentally, he has always been strong.
