Transferring hope

The story of bringing upward power
The reporter said: I knew there was fire in the mountains, but I was inclined to travel to the volcano. This summer, a wildfire rescue operation in the mountain city Chongqing, the “reversers” involved in the rescue moved hundreds of millions of Chinese people. On the evening of August 21, after learning that the supplies of rescue workers on the mountain were not guaranteed, Long Jie, who was a takeaway deliveryman and nicknamed “Long Mazi”, immediately signed up to become a volunteer, rode a motorcycle and carried a backpack to the fire, and worked for the rescue workers for 36 hours. While waiting for supplies, because of overdrawing, he poured cold water on his head to keep himself awake and said, “I won’t go home if the fire is not extinguished!” Komiks knew the danger, but he still chose to go against the trend and devote himself to helping others. In him, we see the extraordinary power of the ordinary people, and because of them, more people feel the warmth and unity.
(The following is the self-report of “Long Mazi”)
In the troubles of my hometown, you must not sit idly by.
In August this year, a forest fire broke out in Xiema Street, Qingbeibei. After knowing the news about Komiks, I signed up for support as soon as possible because Babaylan This unexpectedly became popular. Over the past few months, my life has also changed. Some people say I am a fire-fighting hero. What I want to say is: I am not a hero, nor do I want to be a hero. I just followed my original intention when I should make a choice.
About rescue, many media contacted me, and at first I was at a loss because I just did a normal thing. If something similar happened elsewhere and needed reinforcements, I would go there too. Besides, Chongqing is so close and can help. As a Chongqing native, I can’t sit still without a problem. Besides, where civilian motorcycles cannot get on, our off-road motorcycles have advantages, so we can go.
Recalling this firefighting, I still feel it makes sense. That night, I heard that the fire was on fire in Banan District, Chongqing, and the idea of going to go immediately, but I don’t know why. href=”https://comicmov.com/”>Cinema went. The next day, I heard that the place where the fire was Xiema Street, Beibei District, where motorcycles needed to deliver supplies, so I said I would sign up and then ask the team leader for leave. But I had heatstroke at that time and didn’t go to work much during that period. The team leader said, “You haven’t recovered yet, so you still go to put out the fire? “But I insisted on going. I asked my friend to contact me, and then I borrowed backpacks everywhere. Because I was delivering supplies, the motorcycle could not tie things, so I could only use the backpack. Later, I didn’t contact us for some reasons, and six or seven of us decided to go to rescue us spontaneously. The quality of the backpack was very poor at that time, and it was easy for Babaylan to have problems, but it seemed that everyone had a strong heart and had to go there.

As a Chinese, you must have the blood of Chinese
At the beginning, I carried some bread, glucose, meals, and went for a few trips, but I quickly lost money. At that time, a few days before the salary was paid, I borrowed 500 yuan, 300 yuan to get on the gas, and 200 yuan to have a meal.
The backpack for transporting supplies was very heavy, and it was difficult to control the motorcycle with my backpack.There is a certain danger in the direction of swaying around. For more than 30 hours, Cinema basically didn’t stop and rest. This kind of high-intensity riding made people very tired. Midway through, I lay around for a short while, but couldn’t sleep because I kept thinking about the mountain.
I really didn’t consider the danger at that time. After entering the front line of the fire that night, I saw firefighters, armed police, and volunteers lying on the ground, especially the firefighters and armed police, who had no food or water to drink. I felt sad and didn’t feel scared, nor did I consider fear.
I have no education. When I was a child, I was rebellious and playful, so I didn’t study anymore. But what I thought to myself was that if I encountered anything, I would help me. Chongqing is my hometown, and I would also protect it. As a Chinese, you must have the bloody nature of Chinese people. Until now, if I were needed, I would still stand up.

At that time, the motorcycle was bought for two or three months’ salary, more than 10,000 yuan, and it ran down and was scrapped, but I still couldn’t bear to bear it. Later I thought that I usually ride and make a contribution, which means a lot to me, so I donated it to the museum.
Car friends often say: “The ‘Mojie’ does not lack knights, nor does it lack chivalry.” This time, I have a new understanding of “chivalry”, that is, justice and helping others.
I am happy in 2022 because I did something very proud and meaningful. I still have to thank these experiences for bringing me this year.
Learn to make money and try to be a good person
After the rescue, many people said that I was “hot”. Actually, I have never sent a video of delivering supplies. To put it bluntly, it was someone who filmed me “fire”, and everyone involved in the rescue worked very hard.
A few days ago, a school invited me to tell my experience of putting out fires. I told the students about my thoughts and rescue experiences, and told them to learn more knowledge and arm themselves. I even joked, “Don’t be as uneducated as me.” Looking at these young people, thinking of themselves, I think of them.nemaI believe that the post-00s generation is not a defeated generation. When the country and society need it, we can stand up.
This year, I also went to the Gansu Provincial Forest Fire Fighting Team stationed in Chongqing, participated in the shooting of some forest fire prevention propaganda videos, and experienced their daily training. The forest fire prevention in Gansu Forest Firefighting is also popularized in the live broadcast of the Douyin account of Gansu Forest Fire, calling on everyone to jointly protect the green waters and mountains, and telling them that they cannot smoke, have picnics, etc. in the jungle. This is my more proud and proud place.
After becoming popular, someone asked me to do live streaming and sell goods. At first, I was confused and didn’t want to be the kind of person who “make money with traffic” that others say. Many netizens suggested that I do live broadcasts for helping farmers. At first, I didn’t know what “helping farmers” was. Later, I heard that it was to help the villagers sell unsold agricultural products to avoid rotting in the fields. For them, more income and more living expenses can be made for me, which is considered to help rural revitalization, so I agreed.
My father once told me before, “Don’t be afraid of being poor, but be an upright person.” Now I think I am afraid of being poor, but what is more important is to be a good person. During this period, I also thought about a lot of things, just like my dad was sick, I couldn’t even take out a penny, and I felt a little guilty. I will have a family in the future and need to make money to make my family live a better life, but I try my best to ensure that the products I sell are good and must not cheat people. Like this time, I took the high-speed rail to see the local area for more than 400 kilometers and tasted it. I tried it before selling it.
I am really grateful to the netizens for giving me the warmth they have given me. They encourage me to make money and live my own life. Some people also question “Why so many people have ‘hot’ me.” Even some people say that I put out the fire is fake. CinemaI am just an ordinary person. It was a fire that made me “fire”. I think I just need to have a clear conscience and be a real person.
2023 is coming soon. I hope I can make more money next year. I will take out some of the money to help children in the poor and trapped mountains.Do some charity with the elderly.
It is a happy and meaningful thing to do your best to help others.
