As the first batch of "Internet celebrities" who are popular all over the country on the Internet, he is known as "Brother Sharp", and together with "Sister Furong" and "Sister Feng", he is known as the "Three Phantom Gods" in the first generation of Internet celebrities.
Brother Sharp quickly became popular on the Internet because of two photos, and then staged a touching drama of family recognition.
thought this was a perfect ending, but after learning about Brother Sharp's life after recognizing his family, as well as his current situation, we found out that things had such a big reversal.
1. Brother Sharp's fame experience
At the end of January 2010, Brother Sharp was wandering in Ningbo as usual, but he didn't notice that a person not far away pointed his camera at him and took two photos.
The photographer was a person who was about to buy a camera, and when he tried out the camera, he saw the strange shape of Brother Sharp, so he took a photo.
Brother Sharp would not have thought that it was because of these two photos that the gears of fate began to turn.
The photographer posted the photo of Brother Sharp to a photography forum, which attracted a lot of discussion.
Later, on February 21, some netizens thought the two photos were interesting, so they uploaded the photos to another national forum, which was also the most popular community at that time - Tianya Forum.
These two photos quickly attracted the attention of netizens and were used by countless netizens for "secondary creation".
Netizens gave the person in the photo a name - Brother Sharp.
Brother Sharp is on fire, not only in China, but also in South Korea, Japan, and even Europe and America, and has made headlines on the front pages of these countries.
Almost seven out of ten people who go online know that in Ningbo, there is a handsome beggar named Brother Sharp.
After that, the relevant information about Brother Sharp was constantly picked up.
According to the summary of netizens, Brother Sharp is not a beggar, because he never begs, he goes to the trash can to find food when he is hungry, and he goes to the trash can to find clothes that others don't want to wear when he is cold.
Some people pity him and give him money, and he doesn't use it to buy food, but to buy cigarettes.
With the popularity of Brother Sharp, many people went to "meet" with Brother Sharp and "check in", and according to these people, Brother Sharp is silent, seems to be more difficult to communicate, and is suspected of having mental problems.
2. Recognize your family
As Brother Sharp became more and more famous, finally, someone recognized him.
There is a person from the same village as Brother Sharp who saw a photo of Brother Sharp when he went online, and the more he looked at it, the more familiar he became, and he felt that he was a person in the same village, whose name was Cheng Guorong.
So, this person contacted Cheng Guorong's younger brother Cheng Guosheng and uncle Cheng Guanghua to ask them to identify.
After Cheng Guosheng was recognized, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that Brother Sharp looked like his brother Cheng Guorong, who had been missing for several years, so he made up his mind to take his mother, bought a train ticket, and went directly to Ningbo from Jiangxi.
With the help of the aid station, the group finally met Brother Sharp and finally confirmed that Brother Sharp was Cheng Guorong.
According to the introduction, Cheng Guorong left home in 2000 to work in Ningbo, and has a wife and children in his hometown, but he suddenly lost contact a few years ago.
Faced with his family's move to let him go home, what is surprising is that Cheng Guorong is very resistant and seems unwilling to go back.
But in the end, Cheng Guorong still couldn't resist everyone's repeated persuasion, and finally stepped on the train home.
At this time, Cheng Guorong's wife and father had died unexpectedly due to a car accident, leaving only two children, and his brother-in-law is currently taking care of them.
Although there are regrets, the scene of the homeless being recognized by his family and finally returning home is also a good ending.
If the matter ends here, maybe it will be a bad thing for Sharp Brother Cheng Guorong, but on the contrary, things are not as simple as we imagined.
After visits by the media and reporters, people gradually discovered that there were two different voices about the family of the sharp brother Cheng Guorong.
3. Recognition follow-up
In the mouth of Brother Sharp's family, this is a family that loves each other, and the reason why Cheng Guorong's spirit is not quite right is because he has lived with his grandmother since he was a child, and Cheng Guorong was still a minor when his grandmother died, and he was mentally damaged because he couldn't stand the blow.
But with the help of his family, Cheng Guorong successfully married a wife and had children in 1997, and then followed his sister to go out to work to make money to supplement the family.
In 2000, my sister returned to her hometown because she wanted to give birth, and Cheng Guorong went out to work alone for the first time, this time to Ningbo.
In the first few thoughts of going to Ningbo, Cheng Guorong behaved very normally, and sent it back to his family when he made money, but in early 2003, Cheng Guorong suddenly cut off contact with his family and disappeared.
Later, the family went to find Cheng Guorong and found it, but Cheng Guorong was reluctant to come back, perhaps because he didn't make any money and didn't want to go back, or because he was worried that he would not be able to bear the burden of the family with his wife and two children, he chose to escape, and finally the family had to give up.
In the mouths of the villagers, Brother Sharp's family relationship is another version.
According to the villagers, many people in the village are working in Ningbo, and many people know the sharp brother Cheng Guorong, and they learned that the sharp brother Cheng Guorong once wanted to go home, but his father never let him come back, so that he could work outside to make money safely, and then send money to the family.
Moreover, the relationship between the brothers and sisters of Sharp Brother Cheng Guorong was not very harmonious.
After Cheng Guorong lost contact with his family, his family tried to find him and quickly found him, but at this time, Cheng Guorong was already like a homeless man, in tattered clothes, picking up things to eat in the garbage can.
After Cheng Guorong's father learned about it, he said that he would not let him come back, and said that whoever took him back would be responsible for taking care of him.
So the family finally let the sharp brother Cheng Guorong wander outside, so they chose to ignore it.
There are two versions, and no one knows the answer to who is telling the truth.
Fourth, ill-fated
No one knows what happened during the years when Brother Sharp was wandering, but the current situation after Brother Sharp returned home has been exposed to the spotlight of the media.
After Brother Sharp returned home, he kept trying to avoid contact and respond to everything with silence, just like before.
But it didn't take long for Brother Sharp to start participating in some business activities under the arrangement of his younger brother Cheng Guosheng and his uncle, but on these occasions, Brother Sharp Cheng Guorong visibly showed resistance and discomfort.
In the face of media doubts, the younger brother and uncle replied that it was the doctor's advice, which would help him regain his self-confidence, and it would be good for him to contact more people.
During this period, donations from all walks of life were also sent to Brother Sharp's home one after another, adding up to tens of thousands of yuan.
Brother Sharp's family said that the money will be used for Brother Sharp's children.
After that, Brother Sharp was silent for two years, and everyone thought that Brother Sharp had returned to normal life, but no one expected that an accident appeared.
In 2013, someone exposed the current situation of Brother Sharp, and this status quo is shocking: Brother Sharp reappeared and wandered again, and this time, the family didn't care about him.
The media heard the news, and when they came to Brother Sharp's house, they found that the place had changed.
Brother Sharp still lives in the old house, while his mother, brother and sister-in-law have moved to a brand new bungalow.
In the face of the newly built bungalow, the family said that this was built before, not after Brother Sharp came back, as for why Brother Sharp continued to wander, the answer given by his brother-in-law was: He should not be called wandering, he should be taking a walk outside. He has long legs, he can't stop him, it's impossible to lock him up.
V. Disappearance
In the face of media attention, in the end, Brother Sharp was arranged to be sent to a local psychiatric hospital and exempted from the cost of treatment.
After spending several years in this hospital, in 2016, it was revealed that he was missing.
And this time, Brother Sharp completely disappeared from the public's sight, no one knew where he went, and no one knew if he was still alive.
And this turned out to be the final ending of Brother Sharp.
