　　As a "post-80s", there is a song in Wang Long's memory that accompanied him throughout his childhood.

　　"Learning from Lei Feng's good example, hard work and simplicity will never be forgotten, self-denial is a model, communist morality is so noble..." Recently, in Aksu City, Xinjiang, when a reporter interviewed Wang Long, he sang this song "Learn from Lei Feng's Good Example".

He said: "Every time I sang this song when I was a child, I felt that my whole body had inexhaustible strength. It inspired me to take the road of public welfare."

　　Wang Long is a native of Kuqa City, Xinjiang. His father was a soldier and his mother was a teacher. Influenced by his parents, he liked to help others since he was a child.

In 2012, after graduating from college, Wang Long found a job in Shenzhen and began to contact public welfare.

On December 11, 2013, he found a wholesale market of agricultural and sideline products billowing with smoke during a night inspection.

Wang Long called the police and fire alarm numbers, explaining the situation so that the police can quickly carry out rescue after they are in place.

After hanging up the phone, he covered his mouth and nose with wet clothes, rushed into the fire scene, knocked on doors from door to door, pulled the shutter door, and rescued 16 people.

　　A number of mainstream media reported on Wang Long's heroic deeds of saving lives.

He is called a "grassroots hero" and "Xinjiang pure man" by netizens.

　　In November 2014, Wang Long was selected into the "China Good People List".

In the same year, Wang Long resigned and returned to his hometown to participate in some public welfare activities after work.

"When I first came into contact with the 'One Foundation' warming bag charity project, I thought that the country gave me such a high honor, and I should do something to repay the society. So I launched the 'Good People Charity' volunteer service activity together with my friends , and began to form a public welfare team." Wang Long said.

　　In 2016, in order to do charity, he drove all over the countryside in Aksu, traveling nearly 150,000 kilometers.

The "Good People Charity" volunteer service team donated school uniforms and sports shoes to 400 needy students in Hetian County, with a total value of more than 100,000 yuan.

Six years later, when the teacher from the recipient school came to Aksu for a business trip, he made a special trip to see Wang Long.

"He said that the teachers and students of the school have always remembered us, which moved me very much." Wang Long said.

　　Donated bedtime story books for rural children in nearly 600 schools in Kashgar and Aksu to help children learn the national common language, prevent school bullying, and provide psychological counseling; for children in township primary schools in Aksu and Wensu counties They donated down jackets and sportswear; donated books to more than 200 schools in Hami, Turpan, Kashgar, Aksu and other places; set up a "Lei Feng team" to serve people of all ethnic groups free of charge during the epidemic prevention and control period; organized volunteers to donate blood... In recent years , Wang Long has traveled all over Xinjiang, and wherever he is, he will bring public welfare services.

　　"There are currently more than 500 people in the 'Good People Public Welfare' social service center, and more than 1,800 volunteers in our 'Lei Feng Team'. Everyone drives their own car and pays for public welfare. Some people say that I am stupid. I also encountered some ups and downs and thought about giving up, but the brothers and sisters in the team gave me the motivation to move forward, and I will stick to it." Wang Long said.

　　Recently, Wang Long plans to take out 50,000 pieces of red culture collections to build an off-campus training base for Aksu youth red culture, which is expected to be put into use before May.

　　"In Aksu City, the activity of 'Volunteer Service for Cleaning the Old Community and Warming People's Heart' was carried out to clean up the old community's sanitation environment, create a community book corner, and improve the community's sanitation and cultural environment," said Wang Long.
