Thanksgiving composition for the Wenchuan Earthquake

In reports about the Wenchuan earthquake, a photo titled "Salute to Life" was widely circulated. In the photo, a 3-year-old boy who had just been rescued saluted and thanked the rescue team members. Yesterday, the photographer of this news photo, Yang Weihua, director of the photography department of Sichuan's Mianyang Evening News, and the newspaper's assistant editor-in-chief Liu Wending were guests on Dragon TV's "Extraordinary Memory" to tell the touching story behind the photo.

Yang Weihua introduced that Lang Zheng was successfully rescued 17 hours after being buried. He and three soldiers gently put Lang Zheng on a stretcher. After examination, it was found that the child's left arm had been fractured, and the hygienist made him a simple splint to fix the injury. While the health workers were treating the child's injuries, Xiao Langzheng whispered "Thank you, uncle" several times to the people who rescued him. Due to the continuous aftershocks in the surrounding area, in order to ensure the safety of the injured, the rescuers decided to immediately transfer Xiao Langzheng to a regular hospital for better treatment: "While transferring, with the intuition of a news photographer, I suddenly observed that the child was slowly moving He slowly raised his right hand, and I immediately captured the moment when he saluted and thanked the soldiers."

Yang Weihua later learned that Xiao Langzheng's father was a policeman and had taught his son how to behave since he was a child. With all kinds of etiquette, Lang Zheng has had special feelings for the People's Liberation Army soldiers since he was a child. Lang Zheng's father has also been fighting on the front line of earthquake relief and only visited Lang Zheng once after his surgery.

As for some netizens who doubted whether someone guided the 3-year-old Lang Zheng to salute during the filming, Yang Weihua said that Lang Zheng’s salute was absolutely undirected and was entirely based on his true feelings and the influence of his family education: "Those who have never been to the scene will never understand. Any pictures and text explanations are feeble. I believe that what Xiao Langzheng did at that time was completely revealing his true nature. In that situation where human life was at stake, , any guiding behavior is ridiculous, especially in the face of a 3-year-old child who has just been rescued.
