Who's going to help this peasant writer?
Hunan Daily New Hunan client reporter Xu Yaping
On January 28, Li Zhenhua, a 61-year-old farmer writer in Xiangyang Village, Xitang Town, Yueyang Economic Development District, called reporters continuously. The reporter was unable to communicate with him in time due to illness, but he knew in his heart that he had ardent expectations in his heart.
How did Li Zhenhua contact the reporter? It all started in late December 2021.
On December 24, 2021, Mr. Zhang Buzhen, a famous writer and former vice chairman of the Hunan Provincial Federation of Literature and Literature, called a reporter, saying that Li Zhenhua wrote a long reportage on poverty alleviation in Yueyang Economic Development Zone, which was published in Hunan Reportage.
Mr. Zhang Buzhen believes that it is not easy for a farmer to write reportage for the work of the center of the economic development zone, and the economic development zone can moderately support or reward it.
Journalists agreed. Under the introduction of Elder Zhang, the next day, Li Zhenhua came to the Yueyang Branch of Hunan Daily newspaper in the snow holding the "Hunan Reportage" with his own works.
Li Zhenhua told reporters that he had sought out Director Wan of the Economic Development Zone Poverty Alleviation Office, and Director Wan arranged for him to interview you Guoguang, the poverty alleviation task force and its captain in Fenghuangshan Village, Nanjiang Town, Pingjiang County. He spent a lot of time and effort on writing, but he didn't ask for anything.
On January 29, the reporter contacted Li Zhenhua to inquire about his situation. "I used to farm and work part-time to support my family, but now that I'm older, I don't have a place to ask for me." Li Zhenhua said that his wife has a leg disability and walks with a limp, but because she does not have a disability certificate, she cannot enjoy the relevant policy subsidies.
"Bought a little meat and got ready for the New Year." However, the only son is working outside the home, and the year is approaching, and he has not returned home. In Li Zhenhua's words, there was some helplessness and bitterness.
At present, party committees and governments at all levels are "sending warmth" and solving problems. Can Xitang Town moderately comfort and encourage this peasant writer?
Suddenly, I remembered that Comrade Fang Zhimin, a revolutionary martyr, wrote precious manuscripts such as "Lovely China" in prison, and who did he give the manuscripts to? He thought of Mr. Lu Xun in Shanghai. Mr. Lu Xun and Comrade Fang Zhimin were not acquainted, but he accepted this sacred entrustment and fulfilled the last wish of the revolutionary martyrs.
At this moment, the reporter is a bit like Comrade Fang Zhimin. So, who will be the "Mr. Lu Xun" of the new era?
