On June 22, "Looking for People in Tik Tok" announced that it had helped 211 separated families reunite, and at most 8 people could find their relatives a day. The public welfare tracing project relies on the Tik Tok platform to distribute the information of tracing relatives, transforming the traditional searching for you into a video form, and pushing it to Tik Tok users in the relevant areas of the lost people.
due to the large number of users on Tik Tok platform, the video tracing information is more intuitive, and this project has attracted many ordinary users to join the tracing relay. Huang Defeng, a young man from Guizhou, helped three abducted women go home during the process of popularizing Buyi language in Tik Tok. The languages of Tik Tok and Buyi became the key bridge for Huang Defeng to help people find their relatives.
In September 2121, Huang Defeng helped a Buyi woman who had been abducted for 41 years to go home. She was born with weak hearing and slow brain, and could not learn Chinese for decades. The two words that often appear in her mouth are "smoke" and "white smoke" (meaning "home" and "home" in Buyi language). The new husband used to call her "hello", and the neighbors came up and patted her on the shoulder. No one knows her real name.
According to the photo of the woman and the recording of her hometown dialect, Huang Defeng confirmed that she is a Buyi. Huang Defeng made a short video and released it. Through analysis and communication with local Buyi people, he finally helped her find her home and her name, Deliang. In April this year, Huang Defeng helped two abducted Buyi women find their homes with the help of Buyi language and Tik Tok.
It is understood that "Missing People in Tik Tok" is working with many volunteers and organizations to help more lost people go home. At present, "Looking for People in Tik Tok" has established cooperation with non-governmental public welfare tracing organizations such as "Baby Go Home" and "Let Love Go Home". According to the person in charge of "Looking for People in Tik Tok", the project originated from "Looking for People in Headlines". Since it was launched in February, 2116, Headline Searching for People has successively launched public welfare projects such as "Cross-Strait Searching for Relatives", "Searching for Martyrs' Descendants" and "Searching for Old Comrades", and is committed to helping all kinds of separated families reunite by means of science and technology. "Looking for People in Tik Tok" has helped 211 families reunite. When the Tik Tok, a Guizhou boy, became a beacon for finding people, Huang Defeng cried four times.
at 7: 11 pm on October 7, 35 years after being trafficked from Guizhou village to Henan, De Liang, a Buyi woman, finally met her family. In the 35 years since she left her hometown, she didn't learn Chinese because of hearing limitation, and only spoke Buyi language, so it was difficult to communicate with others. Even in the eyes of her family, she has no name, I don't know the date of birth, and she lives without evidence.
It never occurred to Huang Defeng that the Buyi video he made on Tik Tok could help a Buyi woman who was trafficked 35 years ago and didn't speak Chinese find her way home.
Huang Defeng is called "the radio station of (Buyi) Fengxiao" in Tik Tok. He is a creator who reads poetry, sings and teaches language in Buyi language. One seemingly ordinary night, he received a private letter from Xiao Li in Henan. The other party said that her enigmatic mother could speak similar dialects and wanted Huang Defeng to help identify the accent. He heard Deliang's voice from Xiao Li and shed tears for the first time.
"It's a heartbreaking voice, and it's an expression of her daily emotions. How lonely it is to live in a closed world for so many years?" After many years, no one knows exactly how Deliang went from Guizhou to Henan. What Huang Defeng could tell Xiao Li that day was that her mother belonged to the Buyi nationality. The lighthouse where a spark turns into a wanderer goes home. The Buyi people have a population of about 3 million and live in the south of Guizhou Province. Buyi language has a complete phonetic system and grammatical structure. Huang Defeng said that when he was studying in Pingle Township National Primary School in Anlong County, Buyi language was still the most common language in the local area. Huang Defeng was born at the end of 1991 and lived with his parents in Liupanshui before he was 11. In the city, he spoke Mandarin outside and Buyi language at home. After returning to Pingle Township, the language completely returned to his daily life.
"This is the voice passed on to us by our ancestors, and it is a communication tool for us to convey our emotions. It cannot be broken." This is the family education that Huang Defeng received from childhood. He said that the sense of loss is gradually accumulated with time, progression and location migration. The primary school textbook says that Buyi people are ethnic minorities, but he thinks it is wrong. Obviously, all the students in the class are Buyi people, and even Han students can speak Buyi language. Later, when he went to the county to attend high school, the proportion of Buyi students dropped to half, and there were only two or three people who could speak Buyi. Only then did he realize that a few people meant this. After Bangdeliang released the video of finding relatives, some netizens left a message asking: Why have some people not learned Chinese for decades? Huang Defeng was very angry. "Deliang's hearing is impaired, so her ability to learn a language has stagnated."
Huang Defeng and several other enthusiastic people immediately formed an exchange group. In just one day, this group has been expanding, and Buyi people in various places have begun to listen carefully to Deliang. This scene made Huang Defeng shed tears for the second time. He heard from Xiao Li that for decades, his mother had an unchangeable habit of putting a knife under her pillow when she slept. Huang Defeng remembered that when he was in junior high school, he was ill for a while and often had nightmares, so his mother quietly let go of the firewood cutter under his pillow. Mother said that this is the tradition of Buyi people. If you put a knife, you can sleep well.
"So how did Deliang spend the days and nights of fear for so many years?" Huang Defeng said that he felt the same way. Because the language has not been affected, Deliang has still maintained a pure local accent for 35 years. In this way, Huang Defeng and his people have been narrowing their search scope, and they have been experimenting by exclusion. For a while, I felt hopeless, and then I turned around. In those two days, Huang Defeng felt like riding a roller coaster.
Someone confirmed Deliang's accent in Qinglong County, and took out the twenty-four turn of the local sign to test her reaction. She suddenly got excited and said that there was a temple, a thatched cottage and a waterfall ... Huang Defeng looked at the video sent by Xiao Li and shed tears for the third time.
"It's hard to imagine, with a population of 9.6 million square kilometers and 1.4 billion, what is the probability of finding relatives more than 31 years ago in such a range?" It only took them less than three days to help Deliang find his home in Qinglong County, Guizhou Province.
At first, the video of Buyi language teaching was released in Tik Tok, and Huang Defeng only wanted to let more people feel the unique charm of Buyi language and let more people have the enthusiasm to learn Buyi language. He didn't expect that this little spark would quickly relay into a torch and finally become a lighthouse to guide their wanderers home. As long as someone sees it, a miracle will happen
When I see my 84-year-old mother again, time has shed all traces of Deliang, and the only thing that wakes me up is hearing. Huang Defeng found that she miraculously "recovered" in front of her relatives, and it was no problem to communicate with her in Buyi with normal volume. According to Buyi tradition, when you come back from outside, you should have a hot meal at home, and you won't lose it again. Seeing Deliang's elderly parents bring hot rice to her, Huang Defeng cried for the fourth time. "If it were two years later, Deliang might not see her parents."
After Deliang's story of finding relatives was widely reported, many netizens found the Tik Tok account of "(Buyi) Peak Xiaoxiao Radio Station". Huang Defeng popularized 24 groups of commonly used Buyi vocabulary in a video of "Buyi dialect class", such as "Eat well", "Go home" and "Brothers and sisters". Netizens left a message at the bottom: "It turns out that our mother tongue is so great that it is really the core of the Buyi people." Huang Defeng was very pleased. It took Tik Tok so long before he discovered that Tik Tok was actually a link between information and emotion.
"It's really powerful. We have no connection with each other without leaving home." Huang Defeng said with emotion. He later learned that before Xiao Li contacted him, he tried the Post Bar and QQ group first, and then tried Tik Tok again after he found nothing. "Such a big platform should also have creators of ethnic minorities."
The development of science and technology is ultimately for people. Huang Defeng thought, if they were lost in Tik Tok, would they have gone home long ago? After Deliang found his family, Buyi people in Liupanshui followed their example and helped an old man who was trafficked to other provinces find his home.
Deliang didn't stay in his hometown for long. On the day of leaving Guizhou, Huang Defeng was busy with work and didn't go to see her off. He was a little sorry that he didn't take a photo with her. But it doesn't matter anymore. Huang defeng has strengthened his confidence in shaking audio and video. He said: "Whether it is one person or two people, as long as someone can see it, maybe a miracle will happen one day." He wrote on his home page: "You can contact us again in the future if there are similar tracing incidents around you. We will serve for free and don't want fame and fortune."
Huang Defeng has 21,111 fans, which is nothing compared with those creators who are prone to millions of fans. But in Tik Tok, his content can find people who need them most, thus creating more value and possibilities.
"I hope more people know that the Buyi people are a united, kind and beautiful people." In the future, Huang Defeng wants to shoot more about Buyi culture: food, costumes, villages and customs ... There are both personal memories of Huang Defeng and collective memories of Buyi people. He said that in case fewer and fewer people can speak Buyi language and more and more people want to learn it in a few decades, then these videos will become precious historical materials.
