Chapter 25: Acts of Righteousness

Inscription: On February 2, the new rain was sunny, and the grass sprouts and grass nails were born for a while

Xiong Jun's appeal for provincial and municipal changes has aroused strong repercussions in society and set off a huge wave in major media and the Internet. At this time, he didn't care about hundreds of thousands of clicks, nor did he have the heart to read tens of thousands of hot comments. After briefly handling his father's funeral, he is ready to apply to go to the front line of the new crown pneumonia epidemic prevention and report in a timely manner the deeds and news of the frontline medical staff and other walks of life actively participating in the fight against the epidemic. The front line needs interviews like this too much, and people need to know the truth on the front line. At this time, the unit informed him that he was suspended from his duties as a reporter and was waiting for an interview with the relevant departments!

Xiong Jun is a bull, and the relevant departments interviewed him, but he did not go. He said to the relevant leaders interviewed: "Aren't you going to suspend me as a journalist? But I'm still a Wuhan person, a Hubei person, and a Chinese, so I always have the right to speak, right? ”

The leader said solemnly: "The right of journalists to speak is not without restrictions!" Externally, we must not affect the prevention and control of the epidemic, and we must not have a negative impact. The Weibo articles you published, especially the Weibo articles that let the main leaders of the city and province take a break and let the superiors change their commanders, have too much impact, and you are too bold and reckless! You are shaking the morale of the army, dissipating the people's will, and disturbing the people's heart! ”

Xiong Jun said to the leader of the unit: "How do you punish me, you can do it!" But I still go to the front line to report as an individual, and I still have to report the real epidemic including every number. ”

The leader found that it was not enough to just talk about the big truth, and he couldn't frighten this Xiong cannon, so he changed his way of thinking and tone, and said in a soothing tone: "Comrade Xiong Jun, we understand you!" Whether you call for it or admonish it, it is all for everyone, for the more than 60 million Hubei people, for the more than 10 million Wuhan people, and it can even be said that you are speaking out and sharing worries for the country, but you should know how much pressure and risk our team members have borne for you! The problems that happen to you are actually our responsibility. ”

Xiong Jun said: "I violated discipline, and I was punished; I'm breaking the law, I'm being sanctioned. However, I cannot go against the impartiality and conscience of journalists! ”

The leader sighed and said no more.

A few hours later, Xiong Jun's unit issued a red-headed document that quickly spread on the Internet. This red-headed document seems to be an explanatory letter, stating that Xiong Jun's remarks are purely his personal remarks and have nothing to do with the unit. The document, in turn, appears to be a letter of apology. According to the document, because the unit did not pay close attention to study and did not have a strong ideological awareness, it failed to control the staff of the unit, which caused a serious social impact. This document is also a statement letter, stating that it will obey the overall situation, actively participate in the epidemic prevention and anti-epidemic work, and ensure that similar incidents do not occur in the unit again. Full of three pages of A4 paper, stamped with the official seal of the unit.

Zhang Dawei saw this paper document. He smiled and stood in front of the window, looking at the Chu River Han Street, where the rivers and lakes are connected. There are no pedestrians, no pleasure boats, no vehicles, and the East Lake, Fruit Lake, and Sand Lake are connected by the Han Street of the Chu River. The prosperity of the past here and now seems to have become a memory. The city, the street garden, the distant mountains and green waters, Zhongbei Road, Xudong Road, Wuchang Yanjiang Avenue, and Heping Avenue have become a light board painting, which makes people feel heartache! He thinks that this document of Xiong Jun's unit is good, but fortunately, this document is ingenious and sleek, it perfectly responds to the concerns of the public, and makes a formal reply to the province and city.

Zhang Dawei asked Liu Xingfa to connect Xiong Jun's phone to understand his current situation. After a while, Liu Xingfa came in and said that Xiong Jun still insisted on going to the front line for interviews, and he said that there are too few reports on the TV news about the grassroots front line of epidemic prevention and anti-epidemic.

Zhang Dawei said to Liu Xingfa: "You call the leader of Xiong Jun's unit, Comrade Xiong Jun is a senior media person, a reporter who dares to tell the truth, and you must not let him stop his interview work at will!" ”

At this time, Xiong Jun was interviewing at Fumin Hospital, but he found that people avoided him, and the dean, Li Ming, directly rejected his interview. Zhu Yi, Sun Aibing, Wu Aichun, and Liu Xinxin also said that it was inconvenient to be interviewed, but they were actually afraid of getting into trouble!

After Gan Zitong's "rumor-mongering" incident occurred in Fumin Hospital, the director Li Ming was also interviewed by phone and was seriously criticized by his superiors, claiming that if a similar "rumor-mongering" incident occurred in Fumin Hospital again, he would be held responsible! To this end, Li Ming presided over a meeting of the backbone members of the hospital's epidemic prevention and anti-epidemic business, with three chapters of law and strict discipline. He said: "From now on, every medical staff will say that they must abide by rules and disciplines, and they are not allowed to casually talk about the new coronavirus pneumonia infection of the medical staff of Fumin Hospital; It is not allowed to casually say to the outside world that Fumin Hospital lacks medical personnel, medical supplies, or beds; It is not allowed to casually talk about the dissatisfaction of people after Ganzi and others were admonished and dealt with; It is forbidden to ask for help from the public privately in any WeChat group or other means; It is not allowed to say how many people died in the emergency observation room and how many people died in the intensive care unit of Fumin Hospital; It is forbidden to accept interviews with reporters from any media without permission; No ......"

Zhu Yi stood up, interrupted Dean Li's words, and asked loudly and a little angrily: "Dean Li, you said so much that you are not allowed, I think, this is simply not allowed us to live!" ”

Li Ming looked at Zhu Yi and smiled bitterly. Zhu Yi in front of him is a business backbone, and after the outbreak of the new crown epidemic, he led his team to directly manage the new crown pneumonia intensive care ward of Fumin Hospital. They've been working hard for weeks! Sometimes I just sleep on the floor or in a chair. They are fighting in the most dangerous places, robbing people with death every minute, regardless of life and death, regardless of fame and fortune, they are completely doing their job as a doctor! They do not slack off in the slightest, and regard the life and death of others as their own. As the dean, what reason do I have to say so many "not allowed"? Who am I to make such harsh and unreasonable demands on them? As the dean, I can't even guarantee the safety of the thousands of doctors and nurses in my hospital who are fighting the epidemic on the front line, so what face do you have to accuse them here? Li Ming's heart was extremely entangled and very ashamed.

However, Li Ming is the dean, and in addition to facing his subordinates, he also has to face his superiors, society, the public, patients, and leaders.

Zhu Yi's tears flowed out. He said: "Every time my colleagues and I go to the intensive care unit to treat and rescue patients, every time it is a parting of life and death, and we are also human beings!" We are facing a crazy virus, we are not afraid of war, we are not afraid of life and death, but we need facilities, equipment, materials, ventilators, ECMO machines, protective clothing, masks, isolation equipment, and even plasma...... If the superiors don't solve these problems, they just let us not be allowed to do this, just let us refuel, we refuel, and work hard, but we have reached the limit, we are on the verge of collapse! ”

Sun Aibing said: "Ordinary people have suspected new crown pneumonia, running around for testing, waiting for beds, and the hospital observation room is full of people, and some patients are not suspected patients in the hospital for observation, and they are also staying in the emergency room outpatient department." They say that it is better to wait at home than to wait in the hospital, and to be honest, we have reached the most critical and dangerous moment! ”

Zhu Yi said: "We have several more medical staff with suspected signs of the new crown, and we can't protect ourselves, how can we save others!" ”

At this time, Li Ming was tormented by a deep self-blame. He knew everything Zhu Yi and Sun Aibing said, but the current Fumin Hospital was like an island besieged by the virus, and panic was setting off earth-shattering waves, as if it was going to swallow up this small island. He and all the medical staff of the hospital are the soldiers who stick to this small island. He withstood the pressure from above, he was under the pressure of society, he was under the pressure of the hospital, he was under the pressure of a large number of patients. He was in the center of the whirlpool, and he was suffering from multiple splints! But no matter how difficult it is, you have to carry it and resist it.

Li Ming looked at everyone, his eyes were wet, he held back his tears, and said: "Colleagues and colleagues, I am the dean, a doctor, and everyone's brother, I am in the same boat with you, guarding a small island, what I just said is not allowed, no notice, no post, even if it is my personal opinion!" But when all of our choices are not allowed, our last choice is to endure or be silent! ”

At this time, Wu Aichun stood up and said, "I can't stand it, I can't be silent." I'm going to tell you about an incident that happened in the emergency room yesterday when I was on the night shift. This is a young man in his thirties, he persisted in the rental house for seven days, running around the hospital, and all hospitals were full of patients, and finally he came to Fumin Hospital and queued for three days, and was diagnosed and suspected of being observed. After waiting in the observation room for another three days, his condition deteriorated. He begged me on his knees, and I found that it was no longer possible. But there are no hospital beds, there are hundreds of people in the intensive care unit, and he can't be transferred to the hospital, how can I save him? I watched him on video with his fiancée. His girlfriend was in a county town in another province, and she also knelt down for me to ask for help. There's nothing I can do! I have no special medicine, no equipment, no hospital bed, in a word, I have no conditions to save him, I only have sympathy, I have no power to return to heaven. At twelve o'clock in the evening, his breathing was getting weaker and weaker, and I tried to comfort him. He knew that he couldn't do it, so he asked me for paper and a pen, and wrote a few lines to his girlfriend: "Honey, I'm afraid I can't do it, our dreams, wedding dreams, house dreams, baby dreams, everything has come to naught." I'm gone, don't be too sad, find another boyfriend, this person must love you and spoil you. The number on the slip of paper was my bank password, and I handed over my ID card and bank card to Dr. Goh. Dr. Wu Aichun, he will contact you! Wu Aichun said, putting the suicide note and the young man's ID card and bank card in front of Li Ming.

Li Ming's expression was solemn, he handed it to the director of the office present, and asked after a moment of silence: "What about the young man's body?" ”

Wu Aichun said: "I am still in the observation room. ”

Li Ming and others came to the observation room of the emergency room and found a thin young man at the door, with a sign hanging on his chest, which read: "I am from Hunan, I am here to be a volunteer!" ”

This young man's name is Cheng Dong, he is not tall, with short hair, a square face, a resolute expression, and a pair of myopic glasses. He took a rescue truck to Wuhan last night and came to Fumin Hospital today. He didn't know where the volunteers signed up or who they could help do, so he wrote a sign and hung it on his chest.

Li Ming stopped, looked at the young man in front of him, and asked, "Do you want to volunteer?" ”

Cheng Dong nodded and said, "Yes, I should come to be a volunteer to fight against the new crown pneumonia." ”

Li Ming asked: "You came so far from Hunan, where does your family live?" ”

Cheng Dong said: "My home is in a county near Changsha, Lei Feng's hometown. ”

Li Ming asked, "Does your family know?" Do they agree? ”

Cheng Dong replied: "My parents have agreed, my father is a village cadre, and my mother is disabled. ”

Li Ming asked, "What do you do?" ”

Cheng Dong said: "I haven't joined the work yet, I am a graduate student and am about to graduate. ”

Li Ming took Cheng Dong into his arms and whispered, "Young man, I thank you on behalf of the hospital." ”

At this time, Xiong Jun also came to the emergency room, and the first thing he saw was this young man with "I am from Hunan, I am here to volunteer" on his chest.

Xiong Jun asked Cheng Dong: "Why did you think of coming so far to Hubei to come to Wuhan to be a volunteer?" ”

Cheng Dong touched his flat head, smiled, and said: "I didn't think too much, I was a school grant when I was in high school, and later I went to college, and it was also a first-class scholarship from the school." When I was a graduate student, I relied on school grants, and at the same time, some caring people often helped me, clothes, living expenses, internship fees, and even my mobile phone and computer were bought by my grandmother who was doing charity. There is no social family, and there is no me, so I came this time to repay the favor. ”

Xiong Jun asked, "What did your father say when you left home?" What did your mom say? ”

Cheng Dong smiled: "On the third day of the Lunar New Year, my father went door-to-door to knock on the doors of the villagers and asked them to go down to the fields to pick vegetables, saying that they were sending some vegetables to Wuhan. By the time I left, dozens of villagers were already working in the fields. My mother has been disabled for decades and has difficulty walking, she just said to me, Dong'er, you can go if you want, there is revenge, there is kindness, come back safely, let your father stew a local chicken for you to eat! ”

Li Ming gently patted Cheng Dong on the shoulder and said, "Cheng Dong, we are short of cleaners and corpse movers here, are you willing?" Are you afraid? ”

Cheng Dong said: "I'm not afraid, you just tell me, if I fall in Wuhan, please sprinkle my ashes into the Yangtze River, I'm not afraid of death!" ”

Li Ming couldn't help but step forward and hug Cheng Dong and said, "Young man, my good boy!" ”
