This is the story of the 241th real person we told.
My name is Yang Caile @ Kangai Laoyang, and I was born in a remote mountain village in Zhumadian, Henan Province in 1983.
Before I was 36 years old, my life was very smooth. I got the first place in the annual exam at school, went out of the mountain village to go to college, became a man of the hour by part-time income, and even became a celebrity from the media after graduation. It can be said that I am triumphant and brave, and I have broken through my own life path.
However, just when I thought I would be more and more successful, my sudden failure in starting a business led me to be heavily in debt, and even more desperate, I was later diagnosed with cancer. Under the double blow, I fell to the bottom of my life, but after this, I found a new value in my life.
when I was a child, the problem of food and clothing was not solved in many places, especially after the end of the New Year, when I was young, I often ate sweet potatoes for a long time. There are also some people who can't even eat sweet potatoes at all, so they just cut off food and beg for food everywhere.
In that era when people came to beg, my mother would rather eat less herself and give steamed bread to some beggars. This great love behavior had a far-reaching impact on my future life.
I studied very well since I was a child, and I got the first place in the exam every year. I am the only student in the history of our primary school who completed six years of primary school in five years. In 2111, I was admitted to Xi 'an University of Science and Technology, and became the 1 th college student in our village, the pride and legend of the whole village.
when I went to college, my family gave me 8,611 yuan for tuition and living expenses, of which more than 7,111 yuan was borrowed, leaving less than 611 yuan after paying tuition and miscellaneous fees.
Although I live in poverty, I always maintain a positive and optimistic attitude because of my personality. When others were still immersed in the joy of being admitted to the university, I began to work part-time and try to make money. I have worked as a tutor, a school health worker, a canteen attendant, a teaching information officer … all kinds of part-time jobs, sometimes even a dozen part-time jobs a week.
With various efforts, the first semester of college ended. When I came home, I had more than 611 yuan left, and I also bought a variety of Lintong specialties for my family.
I take advantage of various opportunities to do part-time jobs, and at the same time, I am also very active in school. I was elected as a student union cadre by my classmates and participated in various activities. In order to facilitate contact, I bought a pager during my freshman summer vacation. At that time, pagers were also very expensive, and there were very few mobile phones. Some of them were mobile phones like bricks in Hong Kong and Taiwan films.
Being a cadre in a university is very helpful for my exercise and growth. At that time, I was also young. I often stayed up late for various activities and work. At the busiest time, I didn't sleep for five days a week.
Because I am helpful, all kinds of information channels are flexible, and I had a very good relationship with my classmates as a student cadre at that time. When I was a sophomore, I contacted the telecom company and installed a telephone for the freshman dormitory in Lintong campus. I earned more than 2111 yuan in 14 hours. The capital is provided by my roommates in the dormitory. I am equivalent to empty gloves, which is the 1 th whole money I earned.
Now it seems that 2111 yuan is not much, but at that time, a student's living expenses were about 211 yuan a month, and the salary of a public institution was about 511 to 611 yuan, and the salary of a university teacher was more than 911 yuan, so the money earned by installing a telephone made me a little rich among students.
with the principal, I started my business and opened a tutor center outside the school. It was the 1 th tutor center in Lintong. When there were the most people, there were more than 311 registered students. But unfortunately, because posting advertisements on the street was discovered by the urban management, everything was confiscated and the office was closed, and the tutor center plan was forced to stop.
Later, I found a tutor, and cooperated with my classmates to start a business as a tutor. I earned 6,111 yuan in a summer vacation. Starting a business with my classmates, I only show my intelligence and don't pay. I believe my classmates will pay, and I will find someone to work.
In the summer vacation of my sophomore year, I bought a mobile phone, which was the only one in our school who bought it by herself. I remember that I bought a very thick mobile phone that looked like a big brick. In my junior year, I began to cooperate with others to do computer training, art training, various competitions, help operators sell telephone cards and mobile phones, engage in activities for brand manufacturers, and engage in part-time jobs with students.
At the same time, at school, I was also responsible for editing the collection of social practice for college students in summer. At that time, there were more than 411 pages in one book, and four books were edited. I am responsible for compiling, that is, selecting about 111 practical reports from thousands, and then turning them into electronic versions, proofreading, publishing and printing. At that time, there were few computers, and a lot of our work was carried out in the Internet cafe outside. Several college students stay up all night playing games, chasing plays and chatting. I stay up all night editing books.
I live a busy and full life and try to earn money every day. When I graduated from my senior year, I transferred all the training courses to my younger brothers and sisters. I did earn some money when I was at school. I was really busy at that time, and all kinds of business were involved. At most, I spent 3211 yuan on the telephone bill a month.
In 2116, before graduating from my senior year, I was awarded the title of "Excellent Youth League Member in Shaanxi Province" and "Advanced Individual in Social Practice in Shaanxi Province", which was also regarded as the man of the hour in the university, and drew a satisfactory end to my college life.
after graduation, I worked in a listed company, engaged in sales work. Because of the rich work experience accumulated in college, he was later arranged to be a chain project manager. After working there for a year and a half, I drank like hell for the sake of performance and payment. Unexpectedly, the project in charge was later laid off by the group company.
I had a hard time, so I left my job. But at that time, the consequences of drinking badly began to appear, and a big red rash grew on my body, which was not cured by many doctors. Later, a local dealer in Tangyin, Henan Province helped me find a folk prescription, and I drank it, smeared it and wiped the rash before I went down.
in the second half of 2117, I left the listed company and returned to Xi' an to be the agent of a domestic brand refrigerator and washing machine. During this period, I got married, and with the birth of a child in 2118, I had a better life.
in order to give my wife and children a better life, I start businesses in many ways, whatever is hot. I have done postgraduate entrance examination training, Taekwondo training, summer camp, various investment associations, auto parts, catering, decoration, online stores, new media, etc., involving a wide range.
At that time, I was young and fond of tossing about. In addition, I was an innovative person. I didn't like to follow the old rules, but I liked to try all kinds of new things. It was considered that I seized the opportunity of the times and made some money by standing in the wind.
Around 2112, when the self-media was just emerging, I stood in the wind and seized the opportunity, accumulating more than 311,111 fans, which was considered as a well-known self-media talent in Shaanxi at that time. After a certain accumulation, I want to do public welfare and help others as much as I can.
in 2114, in order to have more money to do public welfare, I invested in five companies, among which I invested the most in the catering section. However, because I was eager for quick success and didn't know much about catering, I was heavily in debt, which had a great impact on my later life.
during that time, I was worried about all kinds of debts, thinking about it day and night, and I was miserable. The failure of starting a business makes me feel very sorry for my wife and children. I originally thought of creating a better life for them through hard work, but as a result, they were scared for me.
In order to pay off my debts as soon as possible and turn over quickly, I left Xi 'an, where I devoted my youth in 2115, to seek new development opportunities in Dongguan. In Dongguan, I worked with my friends as an e-commerce company for almost a year. During that time, I was very tortured. I often stayed up until dawn, slept in the morning, and started working in the afternoon. I just wanted to turn over quickly.
As a result, I was busy for nearly a year. At the end of the year, I didn't get the result I wanted. I decided that I couldn't work with him any longer, and I had to earn money to pay my debts quickly. Looking back now, I blame myself for being too honest. When the partner said that he would split the accounts, he first said Monday, then half a month, then the end of the year. I always trusted him and worked hard, but the end of the year was not the result I wanted. The partner knew that I owed a lot of foreign debts and wanted to make money quickly, so he kept holding me, and I followed suit.
after I came out of e-commerce, I looked for business opportunities everywhere. Later, I saw that the business of the rice noodle shop was good. After a period of investigation, I decided to open a rice noodle shop and quickly turned over by becoming a franchise store. After raising some funds, the rice noodle shop opened, and the business started really well. I also used many marketing methods for marketing, and various lottery activities were held at the same time. However, I still don't know much about the operation of the rice noodle shop, and my business is slowly dying. In June 2118, I completely closed the shop and transferred the rice noodle shop.
After the rice noodle shop closed, my friends and I did some consulting projects in Guangzhou, helped to take charge of the business school, and gave lectures frequently.
around October 2118, my body suddenly began to show some symptoms. At first, I was sleepy. I could fall asleep immediately when I came down from the podium and leaned against the wall or post. I feel abnormal, thinking that the sleeping time of a day is not short, why can't I always sleep? Then psoriasis began to grow on my legs, which was particularly itchy, and blisters began to grow on my chin, which would grow every other week or so. Later, I coughed up blood many times, vomited blood, had blood in my stool, and found onychomycosis ... < P > I knew there was something wrong with my body, but I didn't have the money at that time and I didn't want to spend money to see a doctor. A healthy friend wants to help me look at my tongue coating and let me stick out my tongue. At that time, the tip of my tongue can only stick out my teeth a little. The friend said that you will either have a heart attack or a brain attack in this situation. At that time, I didn't know what this terrier meant, but it was scary to hear the name, so I asked my friend what to do. She said to solve the problem that might kill you first.
My friend helped me find a local acupuncture method in Xiangxi, to remove thrombus all over the body. At that time, my situation was not very bad. I pulled it once every half month to once a month, and it took a long time. Thrombosis was pulled out for the 1 th time for a whole day, and the thrombus was covered with 12 pieces of handkerchief paper, which was too thick to be rubbed by hand.
I remember to pull out the thrombus by acupuncture, and I pulled it out 7 times in total. At most, I used 12 boxes of bamboo tubes at a time, and there were 61 in one box. At that time, I was covered with needles. Later, my health became worse and worse, so I couldn't care so much. I pulled out wherever I saw congestion.
I have never been to a regular hospital to see a doctor, but after looking up a lot of information, I found that the symptoms were completely consistent with those of the cancer patients I came into contact with. Plus the knowledge of Chinese medicine I learned later, I judged that I had cancer.
It's dark, and I really feel that God is cruel. As an optimistic and strong person, I have worked so hard to pursue a better life, but life has given me a deep blow. Hesitation, discomfort, injustice, mixed feelings .................................................................................................................................................................. I am a man. I fell down and I have to get up, pat the dirt on my body and move on.
I'm afraid to tell my parents, for fear that they will worry that the failure of starting a business has not recovered, and I can't tell them if I'm sick. I dare not tell my ex-wife that I have divorced, so I will leave all the good things in her heart. I dare not tell my brother, for fear that he might accidentally reveal it to his elderly parents. All the sadness is borne by myself, and all the pain is borne by myself, so I have always been strong by myself.
God caught me off guard, but I can't give up. Later, I began to engage in health-related industries. Many treatments were first tested on myself, and then recommended to those who suffered from cancer like me.
In 2121, I went from Guangzhou to Bama, Guangxi, which is a sanatorium, and I started a new health care activity.
In Bama, I actively participated in various health trainings and gradually relaxed my mind. I was very anxious before I got sick, and I was bent on turning over and making more money. After my illness, my life slowed down. I just thought, as long as I am alive, everything still has a chance. People are in everything, especially after seeing others around them absent due to illness, they feel more peaceful and grateful that they are still alive.
Because I usually like to record my feelings, thoughts and learning, in 2121, I was fortunate to establish links with more than 2,111 cancer patients through the media platform. What I wrote influenced many people's views on cancer, and also helped nearly 41 patients to choose a more suitable rehabilitation method.
Later, when I found a better self-media platform, I made videos of what I saw, heard and thought, and spread the health knowledge I had learned, helping more people in need so that they could take less detours.
If I never forget it, there will be repercussions. In October, 2121, I got in touch with a self-media teacher who has tens of millions of fans all over the network and learned from him how to spread what I have learned in the form of self-media. After more than two months of study, on February 4, 2121, the content produced was released on several self-media platforms. In three months, the whole platform accumulated more than 38,111 fans, and the playback volume of one content reached 1 million+.
in retrospect, I started my business in 2117 and worked until I left Xi' an in 2116. Many ways of starting a business have blossomed in an all-round way, but none of them can persist until now. Although it's a pity, I think it's a process of my life. No matter what the result is, at least I have tried.
I don't regret it, because when I do anything, I go all out and work hard. I had a struggling youth. I will only do one thing for the rest of my life, dying of cancer, and I hope to realize cancer-free, disease-free and healthy for all at an early date.
