In 2008, a 15-year-old boy risked his life to save seven classmates from the Wenchuan earthquake, and then participated in the earthquake relief, becoming a hero who moved China that year.
The future was bright, but he didn't expect that only six years later, this former heroic boy would be imprisoned and reduced to a prisoner.
Lei Chunian was born in 1992 in a poor family in Pengzhou City, Chengdu, China, the children of poor families are in charge of the family early, Lei Chunian has been very sensible since he was a child, no matter what he does or says, he is very caring for the feelings of others, so he is deeply loved by teachers and classmates.
On May 12, 2008, a major earthquake broke out in the Wenchuan area of the mainland, shaking the mountains and collapsing houses for a while.
Lei Chunian's Cifeng Town Middle School, although it is not in Wenchuan, is very close to the Wenchuan earthquake point, so they were also devastated by the earthquake, when Lei Chunian, who was in the third year of junior high school, was taking chemistry classes with his classmates.
Unbeknownst to them, danger was approaching them step by step, and a loud bang was deafening, and then the whole classroom began to shake violently, and some buildings outside began to collapse with a bang, and the students were all scared and stupid.
The earthquake came too fast, and did not give people time to react at all, the teacher saw this scene, and hurriedly asked everyone to run to the playground, because this is an earthquake-prone area, so the school often organizes students to carry out earthquake escape drills, and under the teacher's arrangement, everyone fled very quickly.
Because of his regular exercise, Lei Chunian ran down the teaching building quickly after hearing the teacher's instructions, but when the teacher counted the number of students, he found that there were seven students missing, and they were all girls.
Don't think about it, they must be trapped in the classroom, the teacher panicked, and hurriedly ran back to the teaching building to rescue, Lei Chunian saw this, and hurriedly followed, he felt that he had one more person and more strength, and the teacher was afraid that it would be a little difficult for the teacher to rescue 7 students alone.
So Lei Chunian ran in after the teacher without thinking about it, at that moment, no one knew, and he didn't have time to think about it at all, he probably wouldn't come back again, when Lei Chunian and the teacher ran back to the classroom, they found several female students in the corner of the classroom.
Under the leadership of the teacher and Lei Chunian, he took a detour to the playground, but at this time Lei Chunian found that there was a female classmate named Ou Jing who did not come out, Lei Chunian returned to the classroom without saying a word, and when he just walked through the stairs, the wall next to him suddenly collapsed.
He finally found Ou Jing shivering under the desk in the classroom, only to see that she was so frightened that she cried and hid there and didn't dare to move, Lei Chunian had no choice but to push the desk, picked up Ou Jing and ran out, but before they could go far, the two of them didn't stand firm and fell to the ground.
At this time, Ou Jing also calmed down, and the two of them stood up and hurriedly found a passage to run out, just a few seconds after the two left the teaching building, the entire teaching building collapsed instantly, and if it was a little later, maybe they would be buried in the rubble.
Finally everyone was saved, and after the earthquake stopped for a short time, Lei Chunian's parents also rushed over, seeing that their son was fine, their hanging hearts finally let go, they wanted to leave this place with their son, but Lei Chunian refused.
Lei Chunian said that he would wait until the parents of his classmates came to pick them up before leaving, saying that he would not leave, and when he was accompanying his classmates, Lei Chunian was still trying to help the rescuers rescue other classmates.
Because he was more familiar with the nearby terrain, Lei Chunian also took the initiative to take the position of the guide, helping the rescuers to transport the wounded out, looking at the devastated homeland, his heart was mixed, the PLA uncle never rested for a moment, and the continuous rescue of the wounded completely moved him.
So he resolutely became the youngest volunteer in it, and later learned that the head teacher was injured in the earthquake and was going to be sent to Chengdu for surgery, the situation was not optimistic, and the head teacher's family was not around, so he decided to stay with the teacher to take care of him.
He was only 15 years old, and he did a lot of things that adults dare not do, and he did a lot of things with his young body, and his deeds were also reported by major media, and the story of a 15-year-old hero spread all over the country, and Lei Chunian became a hero in people's mouths.
In order to carry forward Lei Chunian's style, he was successfully selected as the 2008 moving Chinese character, so that the people of the whole country knew this heroic boy.
At the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, he was selected as the torchbearer of the Beijing Olympic Games, carrying the torch to carry his dreams, and what he did did really brought the flame of hope to everyone.
After he won the title of National Outstanding Young Hero, the local key high school even admitted him exceptionally, and exempted him from tuition and miscellaneous fees, etc., and even in order to help him, the teachers also paid special attention to him, often made up lessons for him in private, and cared about his personal life.
However, in the key high school, the study pressure also increased, and his foundation was not very good, and he could not adapt to the fast-paced learning environment here.
was supposed to climb up step by step, but he directly entered the key high school because of his aura, but when he came here, he found that he couldn't adapt at all, Lei Chunian chose to leave the school and get involved with those gangsters in society in private.
I messed around every day, and finally I got a bad habit, because I was infected with gambling, and I owed a lot of debts, but the already poor family couldn't afford to repay such a large amount of gambling debts, and my parents were ordinary workers, and the money they earned was just enough to sustain their lives.
But the debt collector has been coming to the door, and there is no way Lei Chu began to use his crooked brains, and the title of the former hero boy has become a tool for him to make money.
When he learned that the children of relatives wanted to be admitted to the key high schools in the city, he boasted about Haikou, saying that he knew the leaders of the Education Bureau and could help with the seal, but in fact, where would he know people, even the official seal was forged, and he defrauded the other party of more than 100,000 yuan.
When he learned that the father of his girlfriend's friend was doing construction engineering, he stood up and said that he had a wide relationship, knew many bosses, and knew all the contractors, and made a guarantee, saying that he would help the other party get it, so he got a contract fee of 50,000 yuan.
Even his girlfriend, he still played with his heart, his girlfriend wanted to apply for the flight attendant exam, asked him if he had any channels, he said that he and the owner of the airline are friends, and he only needs 100,000 yuan to make a point, and this thing can be done.
The girlfriend couldn't have imagined that he was lying to himself, Lei Chunian finally put all the 100,000 yuan into his pocket, relied on his title to kill the ripe, and in a very short time, he deceived more than 700,000 yuan, and after these victims found out that they had been fooled, they directly chose to call the police.
In 2014, Lei Chunian was arrested by the police, and this time he was greeted no longer with applause, but with cold handcuffs and imprisonment.
When he escaped, he left all the medals and certificates that he had been rated as a heroic boy in the past, and these honors also appeared on the scene when he was in court, and he couldn't help but shed tears when he looked at the honors he had received.
He regretted what he had done, but it was too late now, and 12 years in prison hoped that he would be heartbroken.
Originally, Lei Chunian had a great future, but he buried it with his own hands, and he who rushed into the teaching building during the earthquake and desperately saved seven classmates may no longer exist.
