Beijing is stacked
Hao Jingfang once said, "There are some people who can be hidden, hidden in invisible spaces. Then a few hours later it was back into another world. I would feel that Beijing is a superposition of several different spaces, which is a more exaggerated extension", and created "Beijing Folding" based on this.
Beijing is stacked, and a paper flow tones two unrelated lives on top of each other.
On January 19, Beijing held the 269th press conference on the prevention and control of the new crown epidemic, releasing the results of the investigation of the confirmed case in Chaoyang on the 18th, the asymptomatic infected person lived in Shigezhuang Village, Pingfang Township, Chaoyang District, mainly engaged in decoration materials handling, in just 14 days, he traveled to as many as 32 places to do odd jobs, working until the early morning.
Many people put the flow and the confirmed case of Haidian on the 15th together, one is a middle-aged worker with internal and external difficulties, and the other is a young girl with a good life, lamenting that this is a realistic version of "Beijing Folding"
5 days ago, an employee of a bank in Haidian District was diagnosed, and only 4 days were transferred to work, and the information was transferred to create a happy and pampered exquisite white-collar worker. A 26-year-old girl, escorted to work in the morning by her father, is at the Financial Street Mall, Ole, Aeon International Mall, Vientiane, ski slopes, talk shows, and then looks for a limited edition Dior at SKP.
In the comment area, most of them are envious, some people say that she lives a rich life, some people say "Look at the tone is a very happy little girl", "this friend is so rich wow", some people sigh "Is this the daily life of young people in Beijing".
"A girl who is rich, not married, has no children, and is loved by the whole family, lives a really happy life."
It is understood that the average price of the house in the community where this young girl lives is 100,000 / square meter.
On the other hand, the middle-aged workers diagnosed in Chaoyang only live in a bungalow for 700 yuan a month in an urban village in Beijing.
In his 14 days of circulation, he worked part-time and part-time every day, day and night, almost every day until the early hours of the morning. The only time I went out was not because I worked, I had a meal alone in the food city.
His trajectory spans Chaoyang, Haidian, Shunyi, Xicheng, Dongcheng, Tongzhou, and Daxing, marking 32 of his 14-day work locations on a map, covering almost the entire city of Beijing.
Sometimes he needs to go to several places in a day to do odd jobs. On January 10, he even traveled 5 places, from Chaoyang to Tongzhou and then to Shunyi. On January 18, during the K1085 train to Weihai, he was notified of a nucleic acid abnormality.
His itinerary became the most debilitating map of Beijing.
"Under the epidemic, the life of ordinary little people, fiercely emo", "I see crying, too sad", "Thinking of my father, the sorrow and joy of mankind, sometimes may be connected"...
Beijing is stacked, urban villages and high-end shopping malls are Beijing, skp Sanlitun workers are Beijing, wind and snow moon pastimes are Beijing, and Phi Xing Dai Moon rush is also Beijing.
The flow is like a strong light hitting life
"Dad is paralyzed, mom's arm is broken, one person raises six people, and life is very stressful."
After the "Beijing Flow Map" attracted attention, China News Weekly conducted a follow-up interview with Yue Mou, a confirmed case in Chaoyang.
Yue Mou, born in 1978, was previously a seafarer of a fishing boat in Weihai, Shandong Province, and could earn 50,000 yuan a year. But in 2020, his eldest son suddenly disappeared, and he began a long road to find a son. Over the years, he has been to Tianjin, Henan Anyang, Hebei Hengshui, Shandong Tai'an, Weihai, Jinan, Rushan and other more than ten cities, because his son used to work as a cook in Beijing, and then came to Beijing, everywhere he went, he was looking for his son while doing odd jobs.
Yue's family conditions are average, and his wife earns 100 yuan a day by drying kelp. There is also a young son who is in elementary school, and there are parents who cannot take care of themselves. In the winter of 2021, the father is paralyzed, the mother's arm is broken, the parents also have heart disease, high blood pressure, coronary heart disease, all need to take medicine to control, the life of a family of six, almost rely on him alone to support.
The reason why they often work in the early hours of the morning is because "to pull building materials and construction waste, large trucks are not allowed to enter the city during the day, if you enter the city to deduct points and fines, you can only enter the city after eleven o'clock at night." ”
Go at eleven o'clock in the evening, and come back at 4:30 the next morning, not only the place of entry and exit, But also the time zone where Yue Mou and the young girl lived were separated.
The puppet theater where he worked, one day the young girl might walk in to see a show, and that was their only overlapping life.
In order to make more money, Yue will sleep for four or five hours in the morning, "and then go out at noon to find work, so that you can earn more." During the day, Yue Mou works in various recruitment groups, generally a bag of cement or sand, not going upstairs is 1 piece, if you go upstairs, you will add money, such as the 3rd floor, a bag is 3 pieces, 4 floors, a bag of 4 pieces. A bag of sand 60 pounds, a bag of cement 100 pounds.
"Now, the ticket I bought for 414 yuan has not been refunded," Said Yue, a staff member of the Beijing Chaoyang District Center for Disease Control and Prevention who wanted to give money to Yue.
"Can't ask for your money," he refused.
"I don't feel sorry for myself either. I just work hard, I don't steal or rob, rely on my own strength, rely on my own hands, earn some money, earn money to find children. It's for life, for taking care of this home. ”
In the whole interview, his state of being in suffering but full of hope lit up countless people, overnight, the circle of friends are Yue's story, "yesterday when I watched it, I already felt that it was not easy, I did not expect that the story behind it was more poignant" a netizen said.
During the epidemic, every list of tones seems to be a microcosm of a small person's life.
Last year, the 34-year-old father of Kaoyan, whose parents were over 60 years old, commuted 50 kilometers to and from work every day, and accompanied his children to cram school on weekends. People in middle age want to improve themselves again and prepare for the graduate examination at Tsinghua University. Confirmed positive on a nucleic acid test 3 days before the test.
Among these people, there are online car drivers who drive 17 hours a day, there are girls who work part-time during the day and work part-time at night, and when the flow is adjusted to life, everyone's efforts to live are particularly moving.
