Original title: Cover story|Peng Qinglin, the relay of love and warmth
During this time, there was good news around Peng Qinglin. On November 12, he was selected into the "China Good Person List" in the third quarter of 2023, on November 13, he was selected as the 8th Zhejiang Provincial Moral Model, and on November 20, Peng Qinglin was recorded as a first-class meritorious service by the Zhejiang Provincial People's Government.
On June 13, 2023, Peng Qinglin risked his life and jumped from a bridge more than ten meters high into the Qiantang River to save a drowning woman. After Peng Qinglin's deeds were disseminated by major media, they received widespread attention and praise from the society.
After jumping off the bridge to save people, Peng Qinglin has a lot of "identities": Hangzhou is an activist who is brave and brave, the most beautiful Hangzhou person, the torchbearer of the Hangzhou Asian Games, and a vigilante in Hangzhou...... He also settled in Hangzhou and moved to a new home. However, Peng Qinglin said that he still wants to be a takeaway brother again.
Righteousness and courage are not hesitating
The 12-meter-high bridge deck, equivalent to the height of a four-story building, tested Peng Qinglin's courage. Now recalling the scene of jumping off the bridge to save people that day, he is still a little afraid.
Just after 13 o'clock on June 13, Peng Qinglin rode up the Xixing Bridge to go to Binjiang to run a flash delivery order, but it was blocked in the middle of the three bridges. The non-motorized lane of the three bridges itself is not very wide, and more than a dozen electric vehicles are parked there in front of them, and many people are poking their heads out of the bridge, as if they are looking at something. Peng Qinglin got into the crowd and looked down, and there was a woman on the Qiantang River, fluttering on the water! Among the crowd of onlookers, some people called the police and some looked around. Seeing that the woman seemed to be sinking, Peng Qinglin hurriedly took off his coat, shoes and glasses, grabbed the railing, and turned over. When he stood on the edge of the bridge and grabbed the railing with his backhand and looked down, he suddenly felt that the bridge was so high, "I didn't dare to jump for a while, my feet were weak." He recalls how he felt. Seeing that the woman in the water was about to sink, he was anxious, closed his eyes, and jumped under the bridge.
After entering the water, Peng Qinglin accidentally choked on two mouthfuls of water, and he quickly swam to the person who fell into the water and grabbed the person with his arms. The police from the Binjiang and Shangcheng police stations rushed to the scene, and the speedboat of the water public security had also arrived, approached them, and pulled the woman back to the speedboat. Peng Qinglin swam directly back to the riverside bank, and then turned back to the bridge.
After saving people, Peng Qinglin only thought about delivering the goods as soon as possible, and didn't want to be known by everyone. "I'm just an ordinary little brother, if someone is in danger, I will definitely save it. ”

Spread kindness and harvest warmth
In the subsequent examination, Peng Qinglin fell into the water from a height, causing a compression fracture of the thoracic vertebrae and was hospitalized. During his hospitalization, Peng Qinglin was highly appreciated by the society and received care from all walks of life. The Hangzhou Federation of Trade Unions and the West Lake District Federation of Trade Unions immediately came to Peng Qinglin's hospital bed for condolences with flowers, honorary certificates and 5,000 yuan of trade union condolences.
The trade union workers carefully inquired about Peng Qinglin's physical recovery, learned about his work and life, and the difficulties that the trade union needed to help solve. When he knew that he was a new Hangzhou native and had not yet joined the trade union, he immediately introduced him to the benefits of joining the trade union. "In recent years, Hangzhou has vigorously promoted the unionization of workers in new forms of employment, and many takeaway brothers like you have joined the trade union organization. The trade union workers also introduced him to the "Go to University" project and the "Love Home" built by the trade union, and Peng Qinglin immediately joined the trade union on the spot.
In recognition of Peng Qinglin's good deeds, the Hangzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau awarded him the first-class Public Security Medal of Honor, the Hangzhou Righteousness and Courage Foundation awarded him the honorary title of "Righteous and Courageous Activist", and Peng Qinglin's takeaway platform also awarded Peng Qinglin the title of "Pioneer Rider" and a cash reward of 50,000 yuan......
In the face of overwhelming praise, Peng Qinglin said the most to the visitors: "I'm not a hero, I'm just an ordinary person, I just did a little thing, I'm happy to finally contribute to the city I like, but you are giving me too much now, too heavy, which makes me flattered and deserved." ”
Since the end of October, he has recovered and returned to his normal life, and he has resumed delivering takeaways. He is now also the captain of the rider team, responsible for the daily running and docking of more than a dozen little brothers. "I used to run orders, and I wanted to be a team leader, and I thought that the work of team leader was not difficult. But after really becoming the team leader, I found that it was not easy. "In addition to the daily running orders, the team leader also has to connect with the running orders and work conditions of the little brother in the team every day, and the little brother must also intervene and assist in docking in time when he encounters difficulties and accidents at work.
In addition to running singles, Peng Qinglin still loves to help others. Sometimes colleagues in the group say that their battery car is out of power and needs emergency rescue, Peng Qinglin will take the initiative to jump out and ask: "Brother, where are you, I'll help you." Once, Peng Qinglin was delivering food in the community, and he happened to meet an aunt who bought a box of fruit to move to the house, and the fruit looked very heavy, so he took the initiative to help the aunt move to the 5th floor and delivered it to the house.
In the process of delivering orders, he also felt a little warmth all the time. "In the unfamiliar areas where I ran orders, the security guards of the office buildings and the shop owners in the shopping malls would enthusiastically show me the way. ”
Nowadays, he is usually busy running orders, doing his job as a delivery boy, and going to college in his spare time. On November 18, Peng Qinglin, as the representative of the freshmen majoring in business administration in the spring semester of 2023 of the Experimental College of the Open University of China, participated in the 2023 online school-running orientation ceremony and officially became a college student. Peng Qinglin chose to major in modern logistics management, which is closely related to his current work. In his opinion, to be a good takeaway brother, not only rely on full strength, but also have knowledge. Peng Qinglin said that the form of class is mainly online classes, which can be taught live on the Internet or watched live broadcasts, and the time is relatively free, and the learning Xi is also based on consciousness. "Going to university and taking online classes is a bigger challenge than food delivery. It's not easy to calm down. Still, he has faith in himself. "I will balance my studies and work Xi and strive to graduate. ”

A little bit of warmth is reciprocated by a spring
On November 2, Peng Qinglin took over the household registration book from the police of the Wangjiang Police Station of the Shangcheng District Public Security Bureau of Hangzhou, officially settled in Wangjiang Street, and became a new Hangzhou native. "Hangzhou is so good, you will be allowed to cross the road here, and the people here are very nice. In 2016, Peng Qinglin rode through Hangzhou from south to north, and the warm fireworks of the city impressed him deeply, and made him yearn for it, and it is for this reason that he chose to come to Hangzhou after working in other cities.
A little bit of warmth, a spring reciprocates. In Peng Qinglin's heart, the warm care given by the city has long been a strength in his heart, prompting him to stand up when others encounter difficulties and dangers, and give back this warmth and love to others.
He is also actively involved in various social welfare and trade union activities. Talking about the changes in the past six months, Peng Qinglin said that the biggest change is that he has a lot of opportunities to participate in Xi meetings and do public welfare activities, and as a result, he has gained more learning Xi and growth. "Participating in these events allows me to increase my knowledge and meet more people. I want to set an example for my little buddies through my own experience. ”
Peng Qinglin also returned to his hometown Sangzhi County, Hunan Province, and established the "Peng Qinglin Love Public Welfare Center". With the love money he received before, he sponsored the first batch of 24 students. "Since I was a child, I have had many experiences of being helped, warmed, and changed. For example, when I almost drowned when I was a child, I received a helping hand from the people around me, and when I was going to school in my hometown, I was helped by an unknown company. Peng Qinglin said that the people who have been helped understand the power of love the most, and they are also the most eager to pass on love and warmth.
During this year's Asian Games, Peng Qinglin also became the torchbearer of the Asian Games. The place where he passed the torch was the Xixing Bridge (Qianjiang Third Bridge) in Hangzhou, where he jumped into the river to save people on the afternoon of June 13. The day Peng Qinglin passed the torch happened to be the 99th day after he rescued people. When Peng Qinglin held the torch high and ran forward across the bridge he had saved, he couldn't help but say: "It feels incredible, it's also wonderful, and it feels even more glorious." Peng Qinglin said that he represents the entire group of little brothers. More little brothers are still working in obscurity, and I hope that the two-way rush between the little brother and Hangzhou is like an invisible torch, which has been passed on in everyone's life.
