On December 24, 2012 (November 12, 2012 in the lunar calendar), the crime of Chen Pingfu. Chen Pingfu, a college degree, is a native of Gaolan County, Gansu Province. From July 2007 to March 2012, articles published or forwarded on multiple websites were monitored by the Gaolan County Public Security Bureau. On September 4, 2012, the Lanzhou City Intermediate Court of Gansu Province heard the case of Chen Pingfu suspected of inciting the crime of subversion of power. The first person to subvert state power since the founding of New China shocked the Internet. The reason for the incident: From July 2007 to March 2012, Chen Pingfu published and reprinted 34 articles on NetEase, Sohu, Sina and other websites, using blogs or Weibo, "Learning from the Egyptian People, We Don't Want to Endure the Fool of Rhetoric", "Accomplices of Improper Slavery Education", "Chinese Characteristics - Leadership Creation Ideas", "Resisting Democracy and the Legal System, the Whole Nation is a Loser", "I Was Bullied by My Own Servants in My Own Motherland", and on June 27, 2012, he was placed under residential surveillance by the Gaolan County Public Security Bureau on suspicion of inciting subversion of state power. On September 4, 2012, the Lanzhou City Intermediate Court in Gansu Province heard a case of inciting subversion of state power on September 4. Lawyer He Huixin pleaded not guilty for Chen Pingfu. The indictment held that Chen Pingfu attacked the party and the government through the Internet, slandered and slandered the state power and the socialist system, and his actions violated the relevant provisions of the Criminal Law. He should be held criminally responsible for the crime of inciting subversion of state power. During the trial, "due to legal reasons, the trial could not be concluded within the trial time limit," and the Lanzhou City Intermediate Court reported to extend the trial time limit. On September 27, the Gansu Provincial High Court approved a one-month extension. After that, the Lanzhou Municipal Procuratorate proposed two extensions of the trial on October 24 and November 22. On December 13, the Lanzhou Municipal Procuratorate submitted a decision to withdraw the prosecution against Chen Pingfu. On December 14, 2012, the Lanzhou Intermediate People's Court granted the prosecutor's office permission to withdraw the prosecution against Chen Pingfu. The withdrawal of the prosecution against Chen Pingfu is to repay the 50,000 multi-yuan debt owed for medical treatment, so that his son in Qinhuangdao can complete college. Chen Pingfu, a 49-year-old math teacher at the technical school, took to the streets of Lanzhou to perform and beg with his beloved violin, and his behavior caused a lot of discussion in the public. Many people, including the principal, believe that as a teacher, Chen Pingfu should not perform on the road to beg. (Western Business Daily, August 31) Confucius said, "Fifty and know the destiny of heaven." Generally speaking, people at this age should be able to learn to face the arrangement of fate calmly. However, on the occasion of knowing his destiny, Mr. Chen Pingfu's normal life was disrupted by a sudden serious illness and his son's high university tuition fees, and he had to embark on the road of begging. How indescribable is this bleakness? Healthcare and education are listed as one of the "new three mountains", "half of the country can't afford to look after a doctor", "Former Vice Minister of Ministry of Education Zhang Baoqing can only afford one child to go to college", such voices have poked our nerves again and again. It can be imagined that when Chen Pingfu was struggling to support himself, his inability was reasonable. In the face of the pressure of life, Chen Pingfu did not back down and escape. He resolutely took to the streets with his violin. This is not only a rare courage, but also a suffocating sacrifice. Begging in the street means that he will exchange his dignity for the pity of others. Between the pressure of survival and personal dignity, Chen Pingfu has no choice. If there is a better way to save himself, who would be willing to stand alone in the busy city and be pointed out by others? Chen Pingfu shows only his personal dilemma. If he must bring his teacher status, it is worth considering that as a teacher with a fixed income source, he cannot resist the huge pressure from medical care and education. The plight of ordinary people in facing similar problems is even more imaginable. As for whether teachers should beg, it should not be the focus of public opinion in the first place. Faced with the unbearable pressure of life, everyone will do everything possible to find countermeasures. Begging is just a personal tragedy, obviously not enough to become a professional shame. The direct cause of Chen Pingfu's begging tragedy is his unfortunate illness experience and unbearable university fees. However, a deeper look at this tragedy reveals that hidden in it is the collective lack of social welfare systems such as medical security and student loans. If the pressure from medical care and education has increasingly overwhelmed Chen Pingfu, the lack of social welfare system is precisely the last straw that overwhelms him. In this context, the accusation of "undermining the dignity of teachers" is not only unfair, but also inhumane. After all, no one has the right to deprive Chen Pingfu of his self-redemption efforts on the grounds of professional dignity, let alone force Chen Pingfu to act as a so-called "spiritual aristocrat" on an empty stomach. The photo of Chen Pingfu standing on the street begging with a serious expression is very sighing. Through this picture, we see a tenacious patient who saves himself, a kind and loving father, and an isolated disadvantaged group. Such a scene is a true portrayal of the daily life of countless people. Social assistance, as the most basic and lowest level of social security, if it cannot be cared for in a timely manner, in the face of sudden difficulties, almost all disadvantaged groups will find it difficult to escape the fate of begging on the street, no matter what profession they have been or are engaged in. And this is probably the source of Chen Pingfu's tragedy. Not long ago, Chen Pingfu, a 49-year-old teacher at a technical school in Lanzhou, took up the violin and begged on the street in desperation in order to pay off the heavy debt he owed due to illness and raise living expenses for his son who was studying in college. In this regard, the school also felt "a little inappropriate". Passers-by thought that he had lost his dignity as a teacher. Teacher Chen didn't get much money, but he suffered a lot of "boards". If someone cared for him, he wouldn't "lose face". Today, "poverty due to illness" is no longer the "patent" of peasant brothers, and children's tuition fees may also be unbearable for all ordinary people. Teacher Chen just relies on his craft to find a way out for himself. Is he wronged by boards? His grievances are probably deeper than the sea.
