What is the final outcome of those who betray the Motherland?
Since ancient times, there have been many traitors and traitors. People not only disdain to be with them, but also always believe that "self-inflicted iniquity cannot be lived", and these people will definitely be punished.
Indeed it is. Leng Hongsheng, former president of a design institute in Wuhan, is a living example.
Many people may not believe that Leng Hongsheng's life in China is not bad, even far beyond most people.
However, he was born at an untimely time. He was born in 1937, when Yingkou was occupied by the Japanese army and the people's lives were extremely turbulent. After living in the beleaguered Yingkou for a few years, Leng Hongsheng's family moved to relatively stable Wuhan.
Leng Hongsheng has not suffered since he was a child, and he does not worry about eating or wearing. Therefore, compared with most of his peers, he has more conditions and energy to concentrate on studying.
And he did not disappoint his parents. With his ingenuity, he was successfully admitted to university. At that time, only a handful of people could go to college.
After graduating from university, Leng Hongsheng was assigned to work in a water conservancy department in Wuhan. Soon, he was transferred to the "Yangtze River Basin Office" and became a water engineer.
In 1978, the mainland infrastructure construction industry began to develop rapidly. At this time, Leng Hongsheng, who is highly educated, is naturally valued by the leaders. Subsequently, he was transferred to Wuhan Architectural Design Institute and became an architectural engineer.
Because of his excellent work, Leng Hongsheng was promoted by the leaders again and again, and finally, he steadily climbed to become the president of Wuhan Design Institute. Perhaps because of his busy career, Leng Hongsheng did not enter the palace of marriage with Shen Aihua, who was 19 years younger than him, until he was about 50 years old.
In 1990, the two had a daughter, named Leng Ling. With a successful career and a wife and daughter in his arms, Leng Hongsheng can be regarded as a real winner in life. But deep down, there was always a longing: he longed to see the "free" country in the West.
Leng Hongsheng, who has been immersed in the sea of art for a long time, has been influenced by a lot of Western art and brainwashed by the so-called "progressive ideas" of the West.
He has always felt that it is China that restricts his development, and if he develops abroad, he will definitely be able to soar to the sky and become famous in history! So although he lived a life that was richer than most people in the country, he still had a lot of dissatisfaction with his life.
He always felt that he was not free enough, felt that China had many problems, and wanted to control him so that he could not escape.
Leng Hongsheng feels that the United States is his real destination. So in 2000, Leng Hongsheng packed his bags and signed up for a tour group to the United States.
As soon as he arrived in the United States, Leng Hongsheng was surrounded by a bustling atmosphere. He quietly left the tour. He has never returned to China since.
In the city of New York, Leng Hongsheng was excited at first. He has experienced the turmoil and rise of China, but he has not experienced the feeling of prosperity.
However, after arriving in the United States, he did not have any income, what should he do if he had no money to live? Soon, he sought the opinions of his compatriots and began to publish articles critical of China, in an attempt to embark on the road of political persecution and make a fortune. Because many people at that time got their green cards through this route.
In order to make people believe that he had been persecuted, his once proud literary style played a role. He criticized China on social media for not being good here, not enough there, far inferior to the United States. He said in the media that he came to the United States to seek freedom.
Leng Hongsheng once became a guest of anti-China politicians in the United States by relying on his remarks that trampled on the motherland. He also made a fortune by those words and lived a well-off life for a while.
But after a long time, Leng Hongsheng still used the same old rhetoric, which made everyone tired of hearing it, and even many people no longer believed his nonsense. This means that Leng Hongsheng's value is slowly being erased, and he will soon be abandoned by anti-China politicians in the United States.
Leng Hongsheng gets less and less income from anti-China groups in the United States. Coupled with the fact that he lives in a high-consumption country, the quality of life has plummeted. Not only can I not live in a beautiful and comfortable apartment, but I can't even afford the basic life.
In desperation, Leng Hongsheng could only try to sell his paintings, but he lost the support of anti-China groups in the United States, and no one was interested in his paintings. In addition, the style of his works did not conform to the current mainstream and aesthetics in the United States, so the last painting could not even sell for $100,000.
In the end, Leng Hongsheng could only find a way to find a job. Although he used to be an architect, no firm in the United States recognized this qualification. In addition, Leng Hongsheng was old at this time, and his body and energy could not keep up, so many companies were unwilling to hire him.
Prosperity is a neon sign for the rich, while the poor see nothing more than a blur. What brought Leng back to reality was his increasingly cramped economic problems. In China, he has a career, a job title, and a unit that bears most of the insurance and pension.
In the United States, he has nothing. Being a black family forced him to work in his first years, but the young man worked harder and put in more energy than he did. And which bosses will not use an old man who is not good at doing things.
After living in embarrassment in the United States for ten years, Leng Hongsheng could not hold on, and he wrote a letter to his wife, hoping that her could come to the United States to reunite.
Leng Hongsheng asked his wife to come to the United States for two reasons. One is that Leng Hongsheng's family was originally a merchant family, with a solid family and a house and a car. Second, Leng Hongsheng has been alone for many years, and his heart is inevitably a little lonely.
Sure enough, as he expected, Shen Aihua was very happy to receive the news, and he sold his house in Wuhan without hesitation and came to the United States with his children.
But after arriving in New York, Shen Aihua found that he had been deceived. Leng Hongsheng is not famous in the United States at all. He has no money or power, so he lives in an underground parking lot without sunlight.
Shen Aihua regretted coming, she couldn't go back to China. Coupled with Leng Hongsheng's nearly seventy years old, his health is very bad. She was forced to stay here.
The money brought by Shen Aihua was quickly spent. She had to provide for her family while taking care of her husband's health. Shen Aihua was physically and mentally exhausted. She had to work several jobs a day to barely feed her family. She is only in her fifties, but she is already old.
In order to survive, Shen Aihua went out every day before dawn to pick up garbage, and only dragged his tired body home at night.
On August 29, 2021, Ida, "one of the strongest storms in 170 years," made landfall off the coast of Louisiana, United States. As the rain on the ground accumulated, it merged into a river, and the basement where Shen Aihua and Leng Hongsheng lived was the first to suffer. The house was quickly filled with stagnant water, and people were quickly dispersed by the flood.
Torrential rain fell for 2 consecutive days. Everywhere the floods went, there was a mess, roads were interrupted, water and electricity were cut off, houses were damaged... According to statistics, at least 63 people were killed in the disaster, including Leng Hongsheng's family of three.
Their bodies were transferred to the morgue to be claimed by loved ones and compatriots. But when Leng Hongsheng insulted China, he offended almost all Chinese, and now no one cares about their remains. It was not until a few days later that the Hubei compatriots in the United States could not stand it, and they took Leng Hongsheng's family back to China. A funeral was held for him and he was buried.
Leng Hongsheng deserved this end, but it was a pity for his wife and daughter.
To the end
There must be more than one person like Leng Hongsheng. Until now, there are still many Chinese stubbornly believe that everything is better abroad than at home. Blindly admiring the outside world, such a person will not end well. At all times and places, we should remember the kindness and cultivation of the motherland. The state is our strongest backing.
