Some time ago, "Weifang Evening News" and Weifang Financial Media reported that 62-year-old Chen Xuhua, who lives in Gaomi, finally found the burial place of the martyr's uncle with the help of volunteers with his mother's dying will, and the volunteers also sent him photos of his uncle's tombstone and other information. After the volunteers learned that the martyr Wei Yudai did not leave any video materials during his lifetime, and the family members were eager to see the martyr Wei Yudai again, they contacted the portrait of the martyr. On July 28, volunteers came to Chen Xuhua's home again and sent him a portrait of his uncle.
Wang Shuaikang, a volunteer who has been involved in helping the martyrs find their relatives, contacted the teachers of the Academy of Fine Arts of Anhui Normal University to restore the sketches and portraits of the martyrs according to the photos of the martyr's mother and sister. After the sketch portrait is drawn, the martyr's appearance is restored through AI technology.
Wang Shuaikang and others sent portraits to the families of the martyrs.
Early in the morning of the 28th, volunteers Wang Shuaikang, Shao Zhujun and the staff of the Gaomi Veterans Affairs Bureau came to the home of Chen Xuhua, the nephew of the martyr Wei Yudai, and handed over the portrait of the martyr to the family.

Chen Xuhua was very excited after receiving the portrait of his uncle, whose eyes, nose, ears, and eyebrows were very similar to his mother and grandmother. He also recalled some of his uncle's past according to his mother's account, and his uncle was wounded three times after joining the army, and his grandmother visited him in the army after being injured. As long as there are troops passing by the door, grandma has been watching the PLA. Once, the People's Liberation Army asked, "Auntie, what are you looking at?" Grandma said: "Seeing you is like seeing my son, and my son is also a People's Liberation Army." ”
Chen Xuhua took his uncle's portrait, accompanied by volunteers and staff of the Gaomi Veterans Affairs Bureau, to the revolutionary martyrs' cemetery in the south of Gaomi City to pay respects. "Uncle, we came to see you, the volunteers restored your portrait, I will take the portrait to the grave of my grandmother and mother to show them, so that they can rest assured!" Chen Xuhua choked up and said that he was very grateful to the volunteers, who not only helped find his uncle's burial place, but also helped them fulfill their wishes.
