On March 7, 1995, in Ruijin Electronics Company in Zhuhai, Guangdong Province, a young man named Sun Tianshuai was a busy worker in the factory.

I saw that he was so tired that he was sweating profusely, his eyes were staring at the machine, and his hands were constantly operating. There are other workers working like him, and everyone is working hard in this Korean-owned enterprise.

"Ding~" Suddenly, there was a loud ringing in the venue. It turned out that the ten-minute break time in the factory had arrived. Just when everyone was happy for this precious rest time, suddenly, a man in clean clothes and high heels appeared. young woman walked into the workshop.

Worker

This woman is the boss of the company. After she came in, she spoke in Korean . What she then translated shocked all the workers present! The translator said: "Because you don't work hard, you must continue to work overtime during this break!" After hearing this, the people around

complained one after another and started talking among themselves. I don't know what the boss was getting up to. As a result, the boss saw this situation. , but became even more angry and shouted: "All of you, kneel down, or I will fire you!"

As soon as these words came out, several obedient workers knelt down, and then one after another Workers began to kneel. When young Sun Tianshuai saw this scene, his blood boiled. He shouted to the workers: "Why are you kneeling? Why do we Chinese kneel to Koreans ? The worst thing is that we will quit!"

Sun Tianshuai

Then he Throwing away his work hat, he walked straight out of the workshop. So what impact will this incident have on Sun Tianshuai? What kind of punishment will this company face? How did Sun Tianshuai fare later?

A young man’s working path in Henan

Sun Tianshuai comes from Shilin Town, Nanyang, Henan, and was born in 1971. His family is very ordinary. Both his parents are true farmers. They rely on the few acres of farmland at home to support their children.

Reading is the best shortcut to change your destiny, so the parents put all their energy into their youngest son Sun Tianshuai. In order to provide for their children to go to school, Sun Tianshuai's parents took a lot of trouble. They gave their children the best things in the family, but their parents did not consider their own lives and how they were living.

Sun Tianshuai

Sun Tianshuai went all the way to high school, but unfortunately failed in the college entrance examination in 1989!

Failure in the college entrance examination is undoubtedly a huge blow to Sun Tianshuai! Although he really wanted to study for another year and did not want to live up to his parents' expectations, because his family was relatively poor, the sensible Sun Tianshuai considered that continuing to repeat studies would continue to drag down his parents.

Therefore, he decided to join the craze of going south to work and go to the south to make a living. This year, 18-year-old Sun Tianshuai followed several fellow villagers and came to Zhuhai, Guangdong for development and worked in a company.

Zhuhai

Although Guangdong has developed very well compared with Henan, where there are many high-rise buildings and busy traffic, which obscures people's eyes, but for Sun Tianshuai, who comes here to make a living, the bustling world outside is not too big for him. Although the whole city is prosperous, there is no sense of integration at all.

What made him even more distressed was that the fellow villagers who came to work with him were either young and came out after less than a few years of school and spoke very ignorantly; or they were too old and there was a generation gap when talking and they couldn't talk Come together.

Sun Tianshuai, who was wandering alone, felt a little troubled when he left his parents for the first time. No one could talk to him or understand his thoughts.

Sun Tianshuai

However, he did not change because of this. The biggest truth that years of studying taught him is that a person must have backbone. "Poor and humble cannot be moved, and power cannot be bent." This sentence has a profound influence and will also serve as a basis for him in the future. The choice laid the foundation.

When Sun Tianshuai first started, he followed his fellow villagers to the local construction site. The work at the construction site was very heavy, but for the strong Sun Tianshuai, it was a good job and the salary was not low.

Sun Tianshuai was quite satisfied with the work at the construction site, but soon several fellow villagers discovered new business opportunities.

Sun Tianshuai

In the early days of reform and opening up, foreigners invested heavily in building factories in China, and local governments also established a large number of industrial zones, welcoming foreign investment.

An electronics factory from South Korea named Ruijin chose Zhuhai, invested in building a factory in Zhuhai, and recruited local workers. The slogan given by the company

can be said to be quite attractive: regular breaks every week, regular commute to and from get off work, and the key salary is not low, which is the same as on the construction site. What's more important is that the factory provides food, accommodation and dormitories, which is much better than the construction site. As soon as a slogan like

was put out, the workers had to be tempted, so everyone went to the company to sign up and apply to join it.

Although Sun Tianshuai is quite satisfied with the work at the construction site, he is a little tired after working for a long time. More importantly, the electronics factory said that he can rest on time, which is what Sun Tianshuai desires most.

So under the leadership of fellow villagers, Sun Tianshuai came to this company and worked in the factory. After entering, he discovered that the system here was far from as beautiful as he imagined!

Unfair treatment in the factory

When Sun Tianshuai entered the company to work, he felt that he had been cheated on the first day! The management of this company is extremely strict, with numerous rules and regulations and complicated procedures.

Sun Tianshuai

Their boss is called Jin Zhenxian, a Korean woman. On the first day that Sun Tianshuai and others entered the company, this woman bluffed and frightened the workers under her, and even showed off to her employees when they had nothing to do, as if in front of her. Here, the employees are not human beings.

In this company, all Koreans work in the office and serve as senior executives. Only a small number of Chinese people participate in the management of the company. These Koreans have an extremely unfriendly attitude towards the workers. The arrogance is almost written on their faces, especially It was the boss, Kim Jin-sun, who was even rumored to have beaten employees behind their backs.

Sun Tianshuai felt that this woman was not easy to get along with, and he once had the idea of ​​quitting. He told some of his doubts to his coworkers, but the coworkers said: "Oh, you don't know, the big bosses of foreign companies are like this, but the wages in foreign companies are high. , let’s do it first!”

Workshop

Sun Tianshuai dispelled his doubts and started working with a few fellow villagers. At first, he felt that it was normal for him to not be used to it when he just entered the factory, and the boss also had to establish his authority. After a while, he would Okay; secondly, Sun Tianshuai felt that he was not very educated, but he was already pretty good if he could do the job in this factory.

So after thinking about it, Sun Tianshuai decided to be patient and work in this factory for a long time. There are more than 120 Chinese employees in the

factory. Like Sun Tianshuai, they all come from mainland my country or poor provinces, and their educational level is not high. Everyone works in this factory to make money and does not talk much every day. Facing the assembly line is a bit boring.

Sun Tianshuai

Sun Tianshuai, who was in the factory, felt that his life was like an assembly line in front of him, passing by little by little, and was exhausted in the factory.

Moreover, before going to this factory, the slogan was: Commute to get off work on time and have rest every week.

But after they entered the factory, overtime work became the norm. They often had to stay up late, and even had night shifts.

Sun Tianshuai wanted to find a job during this period, but he never had enough time. Even if he had a break, he was so busy at work. On his days off, he just wanted to have a good sleep. How could he still have the energy to find a new job?

Worker

Sun Tianshuai can only continue to endure, but a person's patience has its limit after all. No matter how good-tempered a person is, he will explode when he reaches a certain extreme. Finally, something the female boss Jin Zhenxian did made Sun Tianshuai angry.

On this day, a female employee in the company couldn't get a break for a long time, so she closed her eyes while working and took the opportunity to be confused for a while.

It was a coincidence that the female boss Son Ye-jin came to the workshop to inspect the work. She walked around and walked to the sleeping female employee.

The female employee in the workshop

was completely unaware of the danger and was still sleeping with her eyes squinted. Jin Zhenxian was furious after reading this and slapped the employee on the face, telling her to wake up and continue working.

The female employee was shocked, but she had an honest personality and continued to work. Then the Korean woman intensified her efforts and forced the female employee to kneel down. The girl could only kneel down in aggrieved manner, and the boss scolded the female employee beside her. Get up, keep pointing and pointing.

This scene was seen by Sun Tianshuai. After work, Sun Tianshuai found out that the Korean female boss had been saying that Chinese people were lazy. There is no such thing in Korea. No wonder China is so poor!

Female boss

After hearing this, Sun Tianshuai became very angry. The workers around him said: "There is no way, our development is slower than other Koreans, and we have to earn other people's money. We have to bow our heads when we are under the roof." ! "

This submissive attitude for the sake of making money made Sun Tianshuai extremely disgusted. It was this factor that paved the way for him to refuse to kneel down.

angrily resigned and went home

Early in the morning on March 7, 1995, in the Ruijin Electronics Factory, the workers were busy doing the work at hand. Although they had just gotten up, the factory was in full swing. .

Newspaper reports

Jin Zhenxian deliberately entered the factory early that morning in order to prevent employees from being lazy and sleeping. She was patrolled by this hand, and the translator on hand had to laugh with the leader constantly, making her look extra "respectful".

What happened yesterday made Jin Zhenxian very angry. The female worker was sleeping secretly in the factory. She actually wanted to make a fuss about this matter and take the opportunity to punish all Chinese employees.

She asked everyone to stop what they were doing, and called everyone over and said: "All workers should stop working and kneel down to me today! Kneel down all day long!"

Sun Tianshuai

After hearing this, everyone looked at each other in shock. I knew whether I should kneel or not, but a few obedient employees had already started to kneel down. Since they knelt down, others had to follow suit. After a while, out of more than 120 employees, only Sun Tianshuai was still standing. .

Jin Zhenxian looked at Sun Tianshuai who refused to kneel down, and felt extremely angry, and said: "Why don't you kneel down? If you don't kneel down, get out of here!"

Sun Tianshuai's anger reached the extreme at this time, and he said forcefully: "There is gold under the man's knees. , I can’t kneel down to you, a foreigner!”

News report

Then he said to all the workers: “Why do we kneel down to the Koreans!”

Then he said As soon as he took off his hat, he fell to the ground, and then walked away. Under his shout, several workers were inspired, and they also dropped their hats and quit working.

Sun Tianshuai's backbone behavior made Jin Zhenxian extremely angry. She yelled and said that Sun Tianshuai would be severely punished. Upon seeing this, the company's HR director quickly went to find Sun Tianshuai and told him not to be so impulsive and to apologize to Jin Zhenxian.

Sun Tianshuai

Sun Tianshuai thinks he has done nothing wrong, why should he apologize? It is this Korean woman who should apologize. So he rejected the minister's proposal, packed his bags and returned to his hometown in Henan that day.

Before returning to his hometown in Henan, he also called the labor departments of Guangdong Province and Zhuhai City to complain about the case, which attracted the attention of government departments. In addition, he also called the media to report the incident, hoping that the media would expose this matter. The incident of

was quickly investigated by the media. After hearing about it, reporters from Guangzhou, Zhuhai and other places rushed to find this company and inquire about the situation.

Employees all said that this incident did happen, but the boss Jin Zhenxian disappeared after this incident. Reporters reported the matter one after another, and as soon as the news came out, it aroused widespread concern in society.

Everyone praised Sun Tianshuai's actions and expressed that they wanted to praise this hero and not let this Chinese man with backbone get hurt. On the other hand, they boycotted Ruijin Enterprises and asked their boss Jin Zhenxian to come out and apologize. Something also happened inside Ruijin. There was a massive wave of resignations.

Faced with this situation, Jin Zhenxian not only refused to repent, but was photographed by the media and raised her middle finger to the camera with an extremely rude attitude! Such an enterprise is destined not to last long in China! Under everyone's resistance, the company soon came to an end!

Jin Zhenxian

On the other hand, due to reports in newspapers such as "Beijing Youth Daily", "Youth Expo", "Democracy and Legal System", Sun Tianshuai has also become a focus figure.

He returned to his hometown after the incident and lost contact with society, so reporters also came to Henan to ask about Sun Tianshuai's current situation.

After Sun Tianshuai returned to his hometown, he was often questioned by his family members. In the eyes of the older generation, making money is the most important thing now, and they can tolerate it outside. But Sun Tianshuai believes that being patient will only make the other party worse, not to mention that it involves national dignity, and he will never give in!

Even in front of reporters, he made this statement, which made many people stand in awe! Writer Wang Huairang was deeply moved after hearing this, and wrote the poem "Chinese, People Who Don't Kneel" to commend Sun Tianshuai's exemplary role.

It’s just that after Sun Tianshuai resigned, his life was not pleasant: his parents did not understand his actions; his brother-in-law also died young, which plunged the whole family into grief; now he has no job and can only live at home.

Some reporters asked Sun Tianshuai what he planned to do now that he has no job. Sun Tianshuai said that he would still go to work to support his family.

Sun Tianshuai

What he didn't expect was that there was already a university that was interested in Sun Tianshuai. This university was the School of Modern Management (School of Public Administration) of Zhengzhou University. They believed that Sun Tianshuai deserved commendation for upholding national dignity and should be granted exceptional admission.

Unexpectedly, this operation of Zhengzhou University had a certain negative impact on Sun Tianshuai. Why is this?

Today's Sun Tianshuai

Because Sun Tianshuai's behavior is very brilliant, Zhengzhou University has turned away the olive branch. Some people therefore question why Sun Tianshuai can go to university because of this? How do you feel about those poor students who study hard?

Zhengzhou University

But this kind of consideration is undoubtedly too much. After foreign companies entered China, many Chinese people saw the advanced development of foreign countries and felt greatly stimulated. However, what we should do is not to feel inferior, but to be humble. Learning advanced foreign technologies does not mean that we have to abandon our integrity and integrity. Chinese people have a backbone and cannot bow to them.

Sun Tianshuai's behavior was undoubtedly a good example at the time. He told many companies that they must respect their employees when hiring, and foreign companies must respect Chinese people even more. If you come to China to do business, you can't do such simple things, then It’s better not to do it!

Sun Tianshuai knew that although his behavior was right, he also heard doubts about himself, so he has kept a low profile since then and avoided media interviews.

Zhengzhou University

In fact, the graduation certificate given to him by the university was different from that of ordinary students, and it was not very valuable. However, Sun Tianshuai did not explain this to everyone, which caused some misunderstandings.

Until 2003, some people thought of Sun Tianshuai, who did not kneel to the Koreans. Where is he now? Why did it suddenly disappear without a trace?

With curiosity, the reporters came to Nanyang again, looking for traces of Sun Tianshuai in his hometown. Only then did I realize that his current situation was so depressing!

Zhengzhou University

After Sun Tianshuai graduated from university, he went to a company to become a senior executive. That was around 2000.

But for a person who had just graduated from college, it was undoubtedly too difficult for him to directly become a senior executive. Therefore, in 2003, Sun Tianshuai, who had a clear positioning for himself, resolutely resigned and opened a bakery in his hometown.

He could have used "refusing to kneel down to Koreans" as a gimmick to attract customers, but he still chose to keep a low profile.

As a result, the bakery's business was extremely bleak. When the reporter went there, the store was about to close down.

Sun Tianshuai

The reporter once wanted to help Sun Tianshuai and help him find a job, but he once chose to refuse, as he always refused to take advantage of others. He wanted to make a living by himself. He told the reporter: "It's just a little bit harder, I just want to have peace of mind." !”

In the next five years, Sun Tianshuai kept his true intention and looked for a suitable job. He submitted his resume to many companies, and finally became the branch manager of Henan Dahe Company in 2008. This company is about media and culture, and has close ties with newspapers.

Since then, his life has gradually gotten on the right track. He married his wife and gave birth to a lovely child. He was almost 40 years old at this time.

Sun Tianshuai

Now in the new company, he has learned the lessons of the past and used the Korean female boss as a negative example.

Sun Tianshuai promotes a democratic style in the company and allows his subordinates to actively provide suggestions and suggestions. He also works hard for the development of the company. A very responsible person will naturally be valued by his superiors.

Sun Tianshuai

Sun Tianshuai's position in this company has been continuously promoted, and he also created a novel based on his own experience.

Later in 2010, Sun Tianshuai was transferred to the director of the Dahe Newspaper Administrative District Reader Service Center, in charge of more than 200 publishers and responsible for the delivery of nearly 70,000 newspapers every day. In the past ten years, Sun Tianshuai no longer wants to mention the past and just wants to live a good life with his family.

Sun Tianshuai

It can be said that Sun Tianshuai's success today is inseparable from his own firmness and belief. Throughout his journey, it is not difficult to find that he has always maintained his original intention and always remembered that a person must have backbone. Chinese people are more Have some backbone!

Now Sun Tianshuai has a happy family and a stable career. This is a gift from God for his firmness and his spirit is always worth learning from. The reason why the Chinese nation endures for a long time is because there are a group of people with backbone who use their backbone to hold up the sky of the Chinese nation!
