Liu Zhenxiong, 21 years old this year, was born in a mountain village in Nanyang, Henan Province. After his grandfather died of illness, his parents went out to work. In my memory, their parents had no time to accompany him in order to make a living. "I have never been by my parents since I started elementary school," Liu Zhenxiong told reporters that due to financial conditions, he has never experienced the happiness and satisfaction among his peers.

After the college entrance examination at the age of 18, under the introduction of his friends, he went to Xiangtan, Hunan to do his first part-time job. "Do whatever you make money, basically some odd jobs in factories," he told reporters that after he went to college, he basically worked every winter and summer vacation. Xiangtan , Shanghai, Zhengzhou, Linyi... In the four years of college, he has traveled to many places and worked many jobs.

When the epidemic situation is severe, school teachers and students need to watch the night together. Liu Zhenxiong said that at that time, his WeChat steps remained at about 10,000 steps per day. In addition to being a volunteer, he was also responsible for the planning of nucleic acid test sites and the recruitment and coordination of volunteers, and was busy until late at night almost every day.

In order not to disturb the roommate's rest, even if the vigil ended early, Liu Zhenxiong chose not to go back to the dormitory, but chose to lie on the office desk and "sniff for a while". "Once, when I volunteered during the day, I fell asleep while standing," Liu Zhenxiong recalled that there were too many things to be responsible at that time, and I was really tired, and I had the idea of ​​giving up. "But it is difficult to hand over the work, and as a member of the Communist Youth League, you cannot easily exhale your energy," he said.
