He lost all his family in the shipwreck in Phuket.

On the evening of July 5, two cruise ships suffered a severe storm in the waters near Phuket, causing serious capsizing accidents. As of 9: 00 am on the 8th, the Embassy of China in Thailand confirmed that 4 1 China citizens were killed in the accident.

Zheng Lancheng's family of five came to Thailand to travel. He was the only survivor of the shipwreck, and his wife, daughter, son-in-law and little granddaughter were all killed.

"If only one person can survive, I hope it's not me." After the accident, Zheng Lancheng's grief was hard for outsiders to feel.

The ship jolted badly at sea when the accident happened. Zheng Lancheng pulled his wife out of the cabin, but because it was too bumpy, his wife hurt her knee. When he came out to jump into the sea, his wife said "Don't pull me", and Zheng Lancheng promised "OK". As a result, the ship tilted and fell into the sea.

When I looked up, the boat was gone, and so were my wife and other family members. Fortunately, he grabbed a rope and climbed onto the rubber boat along it, but when he called his family's name, there was no response.

"I collapsed there and didn't know what to do," Zheng Lan said.

Zheng Lancheng's daughter and son-in-law are both employees of Ali. They are usually busy at work. This trip is very rare. Everyone was very happy, but the accident came and it was too late to say goodbye.

"The little granddaughter left even before her mother learned to speak." Zheng Lan Cheng said that the last thing he had to do was to dress his family and send them away. He prepared clothes, pants, socks and shoes for all four people, and also brought his little granddaughter's favorite table tennis.

After the accident, Zheng Lan Cheng said that if there are perfect emergency measures, everyone with safety awareness can survive. According to him, when the ship began to bump, someone began to throw life jackets. "Whoever grabs it will grab it, and whoever grabs it will grab it. If you can't grab it, don't wear it. "

Tan drifted at sea all night and was not rescued until around 10 the next morning. "I feel that I have finished swimming in my life and don't want to participate in extreme sports, such as snorkeling and deep diving. I used to think these were funny. I didn't know that life was so small until I saw death. "

When the accident happened, Tan was trapped in the cabin, and the sea didn't reach her head. Fortunately, the glass in the cabin was broken and she was swept out by the sea.

When I was floating on the sea, I found a girl beside me, but she was not breathing. "There was a bottle of water in her bag, so I drank a little," Tan Xinyan said.

Because there are waves, I can only drift aimlessly, I can't sleep, and I have a sip of seawater when I really have no strength. "Every time I feel that I really can't live, I will think of my parents, and they will be particularly sad." Relying on this, Tan persisted in the end.

Life is small, but the will to survive is great.

"This trip was originally to celebrate my niece's graduation from college. My nephew is going to high school, and such a beautiful home is gone, like a dream. " Chen Wei said that my sister came to Thailand to play with her son and daughter, but she encountered such an accident.

Judging from the video sent back by my sister, the weather was bad, the ship was very bumpy, and no one on board was wearing a life jacket.

Chen Wei believes that this is not a natural disaster, but a human error that could have been avoided.

At present, the cause of the shipwreck is still unclear and the official is investigating. However, according to the reaction of survivors, the safety measures on board were not perfect. The tourists on board were not equipped with life jackets and did not take timely measures when bad weather came. Passengers also generally lack awareness of protection and don't know how to save themselves.

After reading the online report about this shipwreck, I felt very uncomfortable. The accident was a bolt from the blue when we were unprepared, even at the happiest time, and then everything came to an abrupt end.

"Love is like blue sky, white clouds, clear Wan Li and a sudden storm in Wan Li", which sounds ironic. This is a true portrayal of the weather in Thailand and the time when the victims fell.

Now everyone doesn't like to travel with a group, and they like to travel freely more and more, but they should pay special attention to safety and consciously pay attention.

We may all encounter dangerous moments, cherish life and attach importance to safety issues.
