[Scene] Hello, Ms. Wu, right? (Well, thank you.) I wish you a pleasant meal. (Okay.) Okay, goodbye.

Because during the epidemic, many riders felt that the hospital's order was a little daunting. If not, who will send it?
[Commentary] The person in the picture is Li Yan, a takeaway rider in Beijing. This is his fifth year as a rider. He lives and works in Tongzhou, and he knows every street here.

Go to Luhe Hospital and wait for a lady Wu from Luhe Hospital to come out for a meal.
[Explanation] Under the epidemic, there were few people walking on the street, but there was a lot of people in front of the hospital. In the area under Li Yan's responsibility, there are two designated hot clinics for patients with new coronary pneumonia and a designated hospital for admission. Unlike most people, Li Yan often grabs the orders from the hospital when he sees the orders from the hospital. He was also called the "hospital delivery king" of the district because he once took orders from all the hospitals in the district.

In 2003, I had a serious illness, and the medical staff helped me out of the pain. So I have a special gratitude to the medical staff. During the period of the epidemic, everyone was reluctant to send hospital orders. The hospital's order was hanging in the background, and I took it directly. Under the premise of self-protection, I think there is nothing terrible, at least let the medical staff eat a bite of hot rice, in order to work at ease. After I sent the first order, I felt that there was nothing to be afraid of, so when I saw the hospital order later, it was just the sort of thing I took and sent it.
[Explanation] After eating pancakes in a hurry, I poured a few sips of water. After less than ten minutes of lunch, Li Yan put on his helmet, disinfected and set off again. During the epidemic, many people's life rhythm slowed down, but Li Yan's "Takeaway Brother" entered the "accelerated mode." Li Yan said that his work experience over the past six months has made him more determined to insist on delivering meals to medical staff.

Once there was a lot of drinks and water at the nurse's site, there was a whole box of water, there were a lot of drinks, and some food, and then when I got it, I called the nurse in advance and I said you You have to send two gay men over, but one can't get it. She said it's okay. You don't have to. Then when I got to the door of the hospital, a very thin nurse pushed a wheelchair and put everything on the wheelchair People come. Everyone will do their part, and they can be regarded as their backing, support.
[Commentary] After five years of entering the business, Li Yan has witnessed the growth and development of the take-out industry, and has experienced that the profession of take-out is increasingly respected and recognized by the society.

There is my colleague "Lao Ji" (Wu Hui), who made his debut in Taiwan for the first time. What he proposed is that our riders are ferries from the city. At the time of the worst epidemic in Wuhan, they were "urban ferrymen" in Wuhan, and now we are "urban ferrymen" in Beijing. Last year (2019) during the National Day parade, our takeaway riders also appeared in the parade team. When I usually deliver food, basically all customers will say that, thank you for your hard work, I also feel particularly warm in my heart. Therefore, I think that our rider industry is first recognized by the society. During the epidemic, we are more respected by the society.
[Explanation] Li Yan said that in order to allow more frontline medical staff to eat a hot meal, he is willing to send it down.
