"This sudden disaster has claimed many precious lives. How powerless we are before a disaster, how fragile life is! Salute to the firefighters battling on the front lines! Thank you for your concern, friends. May all be well. May the departed rest in peace, and may the living find strength!"
"Salute to the firefighters who are always on the front lines, protecting the safety of the country and its people with their lives! We pray for you! May you be safe! May there be no more disasters! We never know which will come first, tomorrow or an accident, so cherish the present!"
"I'm really crying my eyes out. Today is Lunar New Year's Eve, and this has happened. How are the families of so many heroes going to spend every Spring Festival from now on? Damn God, damn chemical company boss."
Page after page of comments, they brought tears to my eyes as I read them. No one could have imagined that such a tragic thing would happen on New Year's Eve.
Ahead, as Li Qingning and Chen's mother were talking, she seemed to sense something and turned around to find that Chen Feng was actually quite far away from her, standing there motionless.
"Auntie, Chen Feng didn't catch up. Let's wait a while."
Only then did Chen's mother realize that Chen Feng had been left far behind by them.
"Son, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and leave."
She shouted loudly, and Chen Feng looked away from his phone and ran to their side, but his expression was not quite right.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Li Qingning asked.
"It's nothing, I just saw a news report."
As Chen Feng spoke, he handed the phone to Li Qingning and then told his mother what he had said.
Upon hearing this, Chen's mother burst into tears, muttering, "What fine young men they were! How could so many of them die? How will their parents live?"
Li Qingning's face was also sad. She patted Chen's mother on the back and looked at Chen Feng, "Those who are capable, lend a helping hand."
Chen Feng nodded. "How about you provide the money and I'll provide the labor?"
Li Qingning nodded.
Time flies, and it's almost 8 p.m. Meanwhile, unseen by anyone, countless supplies and equipment are being continuously transported to Yungang, along with condolences for the families of the fallen martyrs. All of this is arranged by Li Qingning and Chen Feng.
On that day, major news outlets reported on many celebrities donating money, but Chen Feng was notably absent. This angered netizens across the country, as Chen Feng is currently the biggest star in the Chinese entertainment industry. Although he has never participated in variety shows or acted in television dramas or movies, it does not affect his fame in the entertainment circle.
Almost a day has passed since the accident, and Chen Feng has not reacted at all, which has led many netizens to criticize him. Chinese netizens have a very strong sense of justice. No matter how much they like you, they are righteous in the face of national righteousness, regardless of who you are.
In short, they believed that Chen Feng had to donate money, otherwise he would be committing an unforgivable crime.
"Damn it, what a waste of all my support for him. Almost all the other celebrities donated money, but Chen Feng didn't say a word. What a piece of trash."
"Fengshen, you must have made a lot of money today. Why are you reluctant to donate some of it? Some third-rate celebrities have donated millions."
"Could everyone please stop criticizing Fengshen? Maybe he's too busy to see it?"
"Is that Chen Feng's son upstairs? Why is he so protective of him? This is such a big deal, the whole world is reporting on it, and you're saying he doesn't know? I think he's just worried about the money. I didn't realize he was such a despicable person."
"I was initially happy to see him on tonight's Spring Festival Gala, but now it seems I won't watch it because of him; it's disgusting."
Online comments have almost reached a consensus; of course, it's not just Chen Feng, anyone with a reputation who hasn't donated money has been criticized.
"Brothers, I'm on the outskirts of the fire and urgently need chemical firefighting equipment. Our colleagues inside are working too hard and it's too dangerous. We need help."
At this moment, a young firefighter on the periphery of the chemical warehouse explosion in Yungang saw that the professional fire-fighting equipment around him was rapidly decreasing and supplies were completely out of reach. He made countless phone calls and even posted online for help.
"My God, no way! So many people are donating, and surrounding cities are sending help, how come we still don't have enough equipment? What is the government doing?"
"Hey bro, wait a minute, I have a carbon dioxide fire extinguisher, I'll bring it to you right now."
"Don't make trouble upstairs. Carbon dioxide can't extinguish fires containing aluminum, potassium, magnesium, or benzene. Benzene can't even be extinguished by water. You need a professional large dry powder fire extinguisher."
"Damn it, Chen Feng has made so much money, but doesn't he know how to spend tens of millions to support our lovely firefighters with equipment? What a trashy celebrity."
Online, many people have started to complain.
At that moment, Liu Wei delivered the last piece of equipment to the fire scene, but as soon as he came out, several loud explosions occurred inside, and he burst into tears on the spot.
Equipment was scarce, the open flames inside were still burning, and his comrades were risking their lives to fill the gap.
At the fire scene, Captain Chen Xiao, leading twenty firefighters, directed the operation while extinguishing the fire.
"Comrades, do you see tank number nine behind us? It contains extremely dangerous chemicals, and there are more than a dozen tanks behind it. If something goes wrong with it, the entire Yungang will be in danger, and millions of people in Yungang will be in danger."
"Comrades, stop the fire dragon's rampage! Hold it firmly against tank number eight! Even if it costs us our blood and lives, we must stop the fire from spreading at all costs, and hold our ground at all costs!"
Chen Xiao's voice was hoarse, and he was soaked in sweat, whether from blood or tears. In the sweltering heat of thousands of degrees, not a single firefighter retreated even half a step.
Despite the fact that they had already sacrificed more than a hundred comrades.
No country in the world can compare with the heroes of China who went against the tide; they deserve the respect of the whole world.
Such scenes of fearlessly facing danger and risking one's life are common throughout the area surrounding the explosion zone, with tens of thousands more, and countless others on the road, bravely going against the tide of life and death.
"Captain, the fire extinguisher is out of powder."
As Chen Xiao sprayed the dry powder, he shouted loudly into the walkie-talkie:
"Liu Wei!"
"Captain, it's all gone! We've used up all our equipment! The next reinforcement is supposedly half an hour away. Half an hour, Captain! Waaah!"
On the other end of the walkie-talkie, Liu Wei burst into tears, knowing that this concerned the lives of his comrades.
"What? Half an hour? Do you know that half an hour could be the end of the entire Yungang? It doesn't matter if we die, but we can't become sinners for all time."
"The fire in tank number eight is burning right now. If it ignites tank number nine, the consequences will be unimaginable. I don't care what method you use, you must deliver the equipment to me immediately."
Chen Xiao roared, and in front of him, as if knowing that the firefighters had run out of fire equipment, the fire dragon let out a howling sound like a dragon, and the flames that had been painstakingly suppressed instantly burned even more fiercely.
The firefighters could only retreat continuously because the high temperature was almost melting their heat suits. It was unbearable, and some firefighters had already collapsed and were being dragged back by their comrades behind them.
