01. Being "poor" means being alone. When he was young, Zhang Chengliang was a "travel expert". He traveled to more than 20 countries. Not only that, he also went on an expedition to Antarctica and swam in the Arctic for ice swimming.

In the eyes of his friends, he is a lunatic who will do anything for travel and adventure.

In fact, he did this to satisfy his father's regrets during his lifetime.

His father passed away when he was very young, and he didn't even have time to see the outside world.

After his father left, his family fell into a very poor situation. In order to survive, he could only work hard.

It is precisely because of this that Zhang Chengliang owned his own company in his 30s, entered the ranks of successful people, and achieved financial freedom early.

At that time, he was still a willful "big brother" who would go wherever he wanted. He immediately bought a plane ticket to wherever he wanted to go, determined to see unknown scenery all over the world.

After playing for a while, he felt that it was not interesting to go out alone, so he immediately bought an RV and took his elderly mother to travel around the world.

It took me nearly 10 years to travel all over China. It was not enough. I even took my mother to play abroad. In this trip, I visited more than 20 countries.

At that time, he had not thought about helping others, he just wanted to take care of his family.

People who can travel thousands of miles are mostly open-minded, with an ocean in their hearts and a river in their eyes.

02. "Da" helps the world. From traveling around the world alone to helping others, what sudden change in mentality did Zhang Chengliang encounter?

Once, he traveled to Cambodia and saw a group of little girls under 10 years old selling postcards and local specialties on the roadside.

Almost everyone is pitifully thin, poorly clothed, and underfed.

But we still have to insist on selling specialties. Maybe these specialties and postcards support the family's life.

Zhang Chengliang looked distressed and bought all their things.

When I was sorting out the things I bought after going back, I saw a postcard that said: It doesn't matter if you lose this postcard in the future, but please don't forget those who need your help.

After reading this passage, I felt a sore nose when I thought of the group of people I faced, and was deeply touched in my heart. From that moment on, Zhang Chengliang made up his mind to do something.

After returning, he began to pay attention to this information.

One day, Zhang Chengliang couldn't sit still after seeing a newspaper report about children in impoverished mountainous areas in Guizhou.

He immediately called the newspaper office. After learning about the situation, he spent his own money to buy a large amount of stationery and daily necessities, which filled an entire RV.

Zhang Chengliang came, one person and one car, and finally arrived after a long journey.

After actually arriving at the mountainous primary school, the scene in front of me was even more sad than what was in the newspaper.

Seeing the low and dilapidated classroom, the small blackboard, and even several children sharing the same textbook, he was very heartbroken and felt a little guilty at the same time.

After communicating with the local person in charge, he provided the children with badly needed textbooks and stationery, as well as gifts to share the outside world with them.

He also told them to just study hard and his uncle would try his best to help them solve other problems.

Since then, he has come every year.

In 2013, he learned on the Internet that Somali refugees were suffering from dire straits, and he came up with the idea of ??volunteering there.

When he went home to communicate, his family disagreed, but he went anyway.

He went to the Somali Embassy in Beijing to request visa release, and the embassy staff was in disbelief.

He said that his behavior was tantamount to death, and advised him not to do it. At the same time, he also played a video to him. The picture showed a dilapidated scene in Somalia, and the level of blood was no different from hell on earth.

However, what they didn't expect was that this strengthened his determination to go to support.

In order to be responsible for his family, he went to an insurance company to buy insurance, but domestic insurance companies refused to insure him.

In this way, he resolutely signed a life and death certificate, indicating that everything was of his own free will and that life and death had nothing to do with others.

With a medical oxygen machine and 2,000 boxes of antibiotics and other medicines purchased at his own expense, he resolutely went to Somalia.

As soon as he arrived in Mogadishu, the capital of Somalia, his heart clenched.

Looking at this dilapidated scene, he said: "I feel that this can no longer be considered life, it can only be said to be alive." He donated medical equipment and medicines to local hospitals, visited the injured in the ward, and gave them cross-border care.

The solace of borders.

Although he walked through ruins and bullets every day, he persisted in completing the aid mission and became one of the few love warriors in the world who went to Somalia in his own name to do good.

The presence of Chinese people in Somali refugee camps caused a sensation around the world. Many foreign media interviewed him: "Why do you, a Chinese, go to such a remote and dangerous place?" He always replied: "Because love is this

The most common language in the world.
