Tian Yu
Tian Yu
She is an ordinary girl in Laohekou City, Xiangyang City, Hubei Province. The reason why she attracted the attention of the society is that she experienced a series of jumping events from Foxconn in Shenzhen and survived after jumping. But unfortunately, after the jump, she left the sequelae of lower body paralysis. She returned to her hometown after jumping off a building, tenaciously taught herself to weave shoes, and successfully stood at a new starting point of her life in half a year. Her deeds attracted the attention of county and city media and people's daily. She has become a symbol of contemporary strong women, and has been selected as the candidate of "China Internet Affairs · moving 2011" (the fourth quarter). Today, "Tian Yu slippers" has become a symbol of love.
Life of the characters
In the home of Tian Yu, one of the two survivors of Foxconn's "Thirteen jumps" which has caused a sensation all over the country, 18-year-old Tian Yu and his family are taking advantage of this short agricultural leisure to make slippers. If you don't see it with your own eyes, it's hard for you to connect this sunny girl in a wheelchair, who smiles shyly as soon as she speaks with the working woman who was desperate for her life and didn't hesitate to choose extreme ways to end her life a year ago.
Tenacious independence
On March 17, 2010, Tian Yu, who had just been employed for 37 days, jumped from the Baihe garden dormitory building of Foxconn in Shenzhen with anger and sadness, causing widespread concern. In October of the same year, Tian Yu, who was half paralyzed, was quietly returned to his hometown by Foxconn. To this day, the incident still left serious damage to Tian Yu's body - she was unconscious below the waist, and several supporting steel plates were still buried in her back. When the reporter came to Tian Yu's house, her father Tian Jiandang was sitting on a stone in the yard, answering the phone call from enthusiastic netizens to buy shoes, while Tian Yu and other family members were weaving cloth slippers in the yard. Because of her health, she can only do the cutting and pasting of cloth, which takes little effort. More often, she guides her family to do the craft according to the book. The production line composed of tables, chairs and stools is producing "Tianyu slippers" which are popular among netizens. It's hard to imagine that weaving such a pair of pure hand-made cloth slippers requires 66 processes from fabric cutting to completion. What's more, these processes are completed under the guidance of Tian Yu, who is paralyzed in his lower limbs. it goes back to the end of 2010. At that time, after finishing her rehabilitation training in Wuhan, Tian Yu had been following her closely. Chen Yuanzhong, a reporter from Shenzhen evening news, sent a manual slipper weaving book published in Hong Kong to encourage her to learn how to weave slippers for a living. After returning home, Tian Yu, who was lying on the hospital bed, began to study little by little according to the books, and then knitted with the cooperation of her father. In this way, before the Spring Festival in 2011, the first pair of "Tian Yu slippers" was finally successfully woven. "I was happy then." Recalling that scene, Tian Yu couldn't restrain her joy. If it is the love of people from all walks of life that makes Tian Yu regain her confidence in life, then the strong desire for self-reliance in her heart makes her reestablish her goal in life. After seeking advice from others and making some improvements, Tian Yu and her family decided to weave slippers for the market. a microblog on sina.com that helped Tian Yu promote her slippers was wildly forwarded. Yao Chen, the microblog queen, and Ning Caishen, the Internet celebrity, also joined the forwarding team. Soon, the microblog was forwarded to more than 20000 people, and more than 40000 people participated in the comments. At noon on April 7, with the efforts of caring people from all sides, the online store "Tianyu hand woven colored slippers" selling "Tianyu slippers" was officially opened, with the price of each pair of colored slippers of 50 yuan. In just 5 hours after the opening of the online store, all 99 pairs of slippers were ordered out.
Active rehabilitation
while weaving slippers, Tian Yu must constantly fight against her body. Unable to pay the high cost of treatment, Tian Yu had to take rehabilitation exercise at home. without professional facilities, the door frame of the main hall became her leg hanger. With the help of her mother, Tian Yu lifted her left leg and began to twist her upper body so as to drive her left leg to swing left and right, once, twice, three times After breakfast every day, at least a sweat of rehabilitation exercise, Tian Yu to do nearly an hour. put down her legs, and then start waist rehabilitation exercise. The wheelchair is Tian Yu's rehabilitation tool. She uses both hands to support on the left and right armrests of the wheelchair, relying on the strength of her arms to support her body, up and down, up and down Due to the lack of activity for a long time, Tian Yu's body became fat. Every time she did it, she had some difficulty. It's usually a few minutes' work and a break. This exercise, she has to do nearly half an hour every day. to his father Tian Jiandang's relief, after nearly half a year's exercise and medication, Tian Yu's arm is obviously strong and her body can move. In the past, Tian Yu had to be held by him when she was transferred from the bed to the wheelchair. Now, Tian Yu can pull out the armrest of the wheelchair and turn it over from the bed to the wheelchair. "The doctor said that it's not possible for her to stand up again, but it's not entirely impossible, just to see if there will be a miracle." Tian Jiandang said that a father certainly hopes his daughter to stand up again, "but this matter requires patience and confidence.". Despite the harsh living conditions, Tian Jiandang has repeatedly declined donations from the outside world. His idea is very simple: "we have the ability to do things, do not want to trouble you. The donation of money can only be managed for a while, but what Tian Yu needs is to master a craft and support herself in the future. If you want to pay attention, you should pay more attention to Tian Yu's slippers. "
Overcome difficulties
Although Tian Yu's slippers have made a good start, there are still many difficulties for Tian Yu and his family. after all, it's not easy to get out of the shadow of the jump in a short time. When a reporter asked Tian Yu whether she had seen a lot of news reports about her on the Internet? Tian Yu blurted out: "I've never seen it. I don't want to see it. I don't want to think about the past." With these words, Tian Yu began to be silent and her eyes darkened. Tian Jiandang, his father, said that the only report Tian Yu had read about herself after returning home came from a newspaper sent by a reporter from Shenzhen. For those who care about Tian Yu, the reason why Tian Yu jumped down from the fourth floor of Foxconn dormitory building in Shenzhen is no longer important. How to help her return to normal life as soon as possible is a top priority. After many efforts, the country's largest online authentic shoe city Le Tao net has agreed with Tian Yu to sell her hand woven cloth slippers in one year, while Alipay, the Taobao brothers, pioneered the "independent secured transaction" mode to help Tian Yu sell slippers. At the same time, enthusiastic netizens from many provinces in China also called to order "Tianyu slippers". Up to now, "Tianyu slippers" has sold nearly 200 pairs. "The sales of shoes are no longer worrying. My family is very happy." Tian Jiandang said. However, "Tianyu slippers" produced by families are also facing many practical difficulties. "After a while, it's too hot to make shoes under the eaves. When it's windy and rainy, it can't be done. " Tian Yu said that in addition to the poor venues, the shortage of manpower is also a problem. At present, Tian Yu's two aunts and a cousin come to volunteer to help early every morning. Nevertheless, nearly ten people can only produce eight to ten pairs of slippers a day, far from meeting the needs of netizens. "The wheat will be harvested in another month. At that time, the family and relatives will be busy with farm work, and the work of making slippers may stop." the difficulties they encountered are far more than those mentioned above. Two months ago, Tian Jiandang went out to buy cloth. When he came back in the evening, he was in a car accident at the head of the village. He broke his left shoulder blade. At present, his left arm can only be lifted with bandage or his right hand. He can't do physical work in a short time. On April 26, Tian Jiandang called reporters and said that Liu Yu, the person in charge of letao.com, called him and hoped that he would provide the local tax invoice so that the online sales of slippers could be paid to Tian Yu's bank card in time. Can Tian Jiandang to Menglou town related departments a consultation, only found that only for the industrial and commercial business license to invoice. How to solve this problem, he felt a little at a loss. What is gratifying is that there are many caring people in Xiangyang, including Laohekou, who are paying attention to or ready to lend a helping hand to them. Leaders of Menglou town government told reporters that they would solve Tian Yu's problem of subsistence allowances as soon as possible, and deal with serious illness assistance for her within the scope of policy permission.
social influence
At the end of 2011, Xiangyang occupational disease prevention and control hospital held a grand farewell ceremony for Tian Yu. Tian Yu, with a sunny face, walked out of the ward in a wheelchair, put on a paraplegic walker, and happily took a picture with the medical staff. After 240 days of systematic rehabilitation treatment, Tian Yu, who suffered from lower limb paralysis, felt that she had changed a lot: "the strength of her waist and hands has increased significantly. She can wear clothes and shoes, easily cross the steps and small slopes, and can walk more than 100 meters at a time with paraplegic walker." according to Tian Yu's attending physician, after systematic rehabilitation treatment, Tian Yu's lower limb edema, pressure sores and other diseases were all cured when she was admitted to the hospital. She was basically able to take care of herself, and her dressing, eating, going to the toilet, and transferring all recovered to a better level. At the same time, her attitude became optimistic and positive. the municipal occupational disease prevention and control hospital also specially sent a car to take Tian Yu home. Back at home, Tian Yu was excited to see her old grandmother and other family members who had been away for many days. Tian Yu told reporters: "next, we will concentrate on improving the craft of hand woven slippers with our family and increase the sales of products
