A "Our Genius Son" swept across the screen, and people knew the story of Jin Xiaoyu, a bipolar patient, who fought against fate by translating foreign works, and their family's experience of not abandoning and supporting each other.
The story is "cruel and gentle", tear-jerking and inspirational. In the face of netizens' concerns, Jin Xiaoyu's father, Jin Sexyong, responded, "Xiaoyu has returned home and is working hard to translate new books. Jin Xiaoyu was discharged from the hospital, returned to his desk, and continued his beloved translation work. This result adds a gentle power to the story.
But with Jin Xiaoyu's overnight fame, there are also high-frequency concerns from the outside world. In this regard, Jin Shengyong's reaction has played a role in a "silent wall" - he thanked netizens for their concern, but refused all kinds of material help, and also hoped that door-to-door visitors could come back after the Spring Festival. For the father and son, being able to restore a quiet and orderly life as soon as possible is what they need most at the moment.
In related reports, there is a sentence that evaluates Jin Sexyong that particularly touches people's hearts: "An old-school intellectual still maintains elegant self-esteem." From Jin Shengyong's body, we can indeed feel the calmness of the old-school intellectuals, self-denial, and the sobriety in their bones. Of course, this can also be explained by the fact that no one knows how to protect his son better than he does – allowing Jin Xiaoyu to simply immerse himself in the world of his translation is a "task" that the father is doing his best to complete at the moment.
