When the overwhelming news media attention dissipated, the limelight of the Olympic year once again occupied the high ground of heat, and the Southwest began the reconstruction work after being devastated.
In order to be open to all rivers and for this international prosperity, two months in advance, the word "Olympic Games" has been flooded in everyone's news receiving channels. Everything you hear and see are related news reports.
Countless foreign tourists and sports fans are pouring into China, and this number is increasing with the arrival of that day.
Southwest has gradually calmed down. Reconstruction is a new life, but the pain of the past cannot be forgotten.
Donate money and materials, volunteer in rescue operations, everything will eventually come to an end.
At the end of June, the heat on Wei Tao's body was also washed away, and he returned to this devastated place. Post-disaster reconstruction of civil engineering projects was in full swing, but the reconstruction of people's hearts took longer to feel and overcome the sadness. Even if the physical and mental injuries are healed, it will still take a long time to forget the grief and try to just remember without feeling hurt.
On the lawn of the hospital, Linlin, a little girl wearing a hospital gown, was sitting in a wheelchair. She could no longer run and play on the grass like other children. Her right leg was knocked down by the steel bars in the wall during the rescue process. It was revealed that the rescue conditions at the time did not allow more time to consider other rescue plans. Aftershocks would occur at any time in the location, and the ruins could collapse again at any time.
In order to save lives as quickly as possible, in order to save the last member of this family. At that time, the only option was on-site amputation, and the right leg of a ten-year-old girl was taken away. After more than a month of treatment and cultivation, the physical illness was cured, but the abyss in my heart was still there. Whenever my hand touched the trouser leg, It's empty, and the good health is just superficial wounds. Here, there are forever "scars" that can't be erased.
In the distance, several children who were playing football kicked the ball along the grass to Linlin's wheelchair.
In this hospital, there are quite a few people who were seriously injured in the earthquake. Although they are only a group of children about ten years old, they have grown up early in the experience of blood and fire. When they hit the wheelchair, they ran over and saw the gloom in Linlin's eyes.
"Come on, let's play a passing game, shall we..."
One of the older children picked up the football and instead of kicking it with his feet, he led everyone to form a circle and play throwing and catching the ball with each other.
Wei Tao pushed Linlin and joined in. Soon, the children's laughter spread. Although it is not good to be trampled on the grass like this, here, it can let the children get a moment of innocent and pure laughter. Its The value will be doubled.
Wei Tao, who was standing aside, also had a bright smile on his face.
"The vast majority of volunteers have already left here." The clear voice contained a bit of surprise at meeting someone familiar, and the words were full of sighs.
The middle-aged woman with a broken arm that she had seen before was standing next to Wei Tao, her face covered with vicissitudes of life and exhaustion.
Yes, the long reconstruction work is no longer the reason for everyone to stay for a long time.
"Wei Tao." Wei Tao turned sideways and stretched out his hand. This time they met, it was necessary for the two of them to get to know each other formally.
"Sui Hui. I really didn't expect to see Mr. Wei here again at this time."
The two hands were held together. Wei Tao believed that since the first meeting, the other party must be more focused than himself. The obvious decadence and vicissitudes derived from fatigue are enough to prove that she has not left here for more than a month.
Wei Tao didn't know how to answer such words, and he couldn't boast of himself. His refusal to answer made Sui Hui think that what he just said was too serious.
After all, every volunteer who has come before has contributed his or her efforts for free, and you cannot expect each of them to give up everything to continue.
"I watched the fund-raising party later, and on behalf of these children and everyone else, I would like to thank Mr. Wei for his generous donation." Sui Hui used to run a clothing store in her hometown. Over the years, she has traveled all over the country to purchase and select products, which can be considered a good experience. Well-informed, after a short silence, hurried to
I went back and made up for it.
"There's not much I can do." Wei Tao sighed, and when he came back again, he realized how insignificant he was. There was a moment when he hated his own weakness. If he had been before, he wouldn't have been afraid of all "predictions" In the future, let’s not talk about whether it is accepted or whether it will become a guinea pig, but only talk about how many lives it will save if it succeeds.
"You have done enough." This was Sui Hui's true inner thought. However, a few days later, she discovered that her evaluation of this young man was far from enough. He was the same age as her nephew, and her nephew every day do what?
After graduating from college, I was waiting for my family to spend money and ask connections to find a job. I always found a temporary job, but I always stopped doing it after a few days. Play games at home, go out with friends, get a girlfriend and take her home to eat with your parents...
It is impossible for the hospital to keep people who have recovered from their injuries indefinitely. All hospitals are the same. Those young and middle-aged people with minor injuries are fine. After treatment, they go out to participate in the reconstruction work. The official will provide everyone with basic protection. Multiple jobs available.
What about the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled?
In more than a month, the reconstruction work has just begun. Where can we arrange everyone in detail? This leads to conflicts. If the hospital allows patients to show up, where can they go?
[In view of the general environment,
Wei Tao can't solve more conflicts and more things that require coordination and detailed resolution by multiple departments, and he really can't help everyone.
The city where the hospital where Linlin and others were treated is located, which is also a county town near the incident site. There was also a certain degree of damage, but it was not that serious. The city has also returned to normal operations, but for a group like Linlin who left their homes For people who don't know what the future will bring, the hospital is like the last fortress. Without it, they don't know where the future is.
The officials will not ignore it, but they cannot do everything in detail and satisfy everyone, especially in terms of psychological construction. All they can do is find some psychotherapists to help provide some psychological counseling on a regular basis. .
People like Sui Hui who feel the same way are impeccable with the official follow-up actions. They cover too much, involve too many people, and are really limited in what they can do.
A large township hotel located on the edge of the county.
A country-style hotel with a spacious courtyard and three floors for weddings and weddings.
Now the place has changed its appearance. A large freight elevator has been installed on the side of the building. Its stability, safety and loading capacity exceed that of ordinary elevators.
It is no longer a hotel, there is only one word left above the building - home.
The yard has also been decorated accordingly, and equipment for rest, entertainment, and sunbathing are all newly added.
Within the building, all areas have been rearranged. It is difficult to have a separate room, but for people who are confused and waiting to find their way without a home, having such a place is better than having no place at all.
Sui Hui had heard about this place for a long time. This was a place where a charity organization was put into trial operation. She immediately signed up to work here. It provided food, accommodation and salary. Even if it was not available, with the savings in her bank card, As a survivor more than thirty years ago, she is willing to volunteer here for a long time, no problem for a year or two, until the place is really rebuilt, especially for those children. She does not want to experience the pain and confusion she experienced as a child again. What appears in these children is that there is a ruin in their hearts that cannot be erased even by time.
In cooperating with the authorities, there are not so many requirements here. Mainly for the elderly, weak, sick and disabled, and mainly for children. Until the official reconstruction work is in order, time, manpower and material resources are freed up, and before resettlement is officially carried out, this "home" , can temporarily give everyone a temporary home.
This is just the first one. Officials have given special treatment to special projects and allocated land nearby. Those who wanted to help others after the disaster heard about the pattern here, including bricklayers, carpenters, etc., all took the initiative to help.
Build, give money.
Workers, pay wages.
The service staff here are remunerated according to their local income in the same industry.
Remuneration.
This organization does not accept any form of monetary donations. If you are willing to donate materials and supplies for the people here, we will accept them.
Sui Hui asked the person in charge of the beauty here, how big do you want to build and how long will it last? The cost of a small place is not high, there is official support, and there are donations from all walks of life. The answer Sui Hui got at that time was: "If it is the current If this scale is expanded five times, we can keep it there until it has no value. Then it will be returned to the local officials. Whether it will be used as a welfare home or something else will be the responsibility of the local officials."
Sui Hui told herself, be a volunteer here. If you receive a cent of remuneration here, you will be sorry for your original intention. However, you will not explicitly refuse the remuneration. After receiving it, you will buy the corresponding items and donate them. Give it here. After all, I am not the only employee here. It is best not to engage in moral kidnapping. It will not cause trouble for people, but it will ruin many good things.
When she saw Wei Tao appear here, with the beautiful person in charge following him and introducing him to everything here, and a group of people following them, Sui Hui understood that with Mr. Wei's donation of more than 30 million The momentum was created by him to truly face the gap period of post-disaster reconstruction. She believed that it seemed that no one except him would do this.
When everyone and everything is in full swing, until the reconstruction is completed, this gap period will leave ruins in the hearts of some people that cannot be easily erased. Sui Hui is a person involved and has experienced it, so when everyone else left, she made herself even busier and wanted to help more people.
When Wei Tao appeared at this time, in her heart, he was more worthy of being called a philanthropist than many, many super good people.
Looking at each other from a distance, Wei Tao nodded slightly, while Sui Hui raised her arm towards him without hesitation, raised her flat arm, made a fist, and raised her thumb...
