The new crown pneumonia epidemic has spread worldwide. What happened to the overseas Chinese in various countries? China Overseas Chinese Network (ID: qiaowangzhongguo) has specially released a series of manuscripts of "Remaining Overseas", which tells the story of the "war epidemic" of the overseas Chinese. In this issue, Duan Lian of Spain shared his left-behind story.

I still remember the beginning of the outbreak of the domestic epidemic, the lack of medical supplies, overseas Chinese and overseas students, donations and donations.

The international students save the money and living expenses they earn from working, and buy the lack of domestic materials without reservation.

At that time, I was particularly impressed by the words of a classmate. He said with a little pride: "We walked one after another pharmacies and contacted the airline to help deliver the goods to the country. At the airport, ask the tour group ready to return home for help Bring the supplies back to the place most needed by the motherland. "

When discriminated overseas, Chinese students took to the streets and launched a "give me a hug" activity. On an overseas social platform, it launched a propaganda initiative of "I am not a virus", peacefully expressed the correct concept of "viruses without borders", and used its own actual actions to tell the touching stories that are happening in China ...

"Don't be alarmed and easy to deal with, do not mess up and be stable."

All of this is still vivid, and in a blink of an eye, the new coronary pneumonia epidemic broke out in Europe.

As the global epidemic continues to spread, and Europe, especially Italy and Spain, have serious epidemics, Chinese compatriots have once again embarked on an "anti-epidemic" journey of active self-help and mutual assistance.

"Who still has Chinese patent medicines such as Lianhua Qingwen? I seem to be recruiting ..." This is an international student asking for help in WeChat group.

As soon as this message was sent out, the students' concerns and help were passed back.

In the case of overseas anti-epidemic, faced with the extremely tight medical resources in local hospitals, the medical students also set up a voluntary group of medical students to help everyone scientifically protect, investigate and psychologically counsel students with suspected symptoms.

When the embassy in Spain learned of the situation of the international student, he immediately contacted the diagnosed classmate and immediately urged local hospitals and relevant departments to give full and thoughtful treatment.

Not only that, but the embassy has taken action long ago, holding a video conference of overseas students studying in the West to promote the knowledge of epidemic prevention and understanding the current practical needs of students.

On March 24, the first batch of "health packs" containing masks and epidemic prevention guides reached the hands of the students most in need with the care and love of the motherland and the people.

Behind this is the embassy staff who sacrifices their time for rest and even mealtimes, and more volunteers who come forward to serve their students voluntarily.

This silent patriotic lesson made every Chinese child overseas realize that the motherland will always be your strong backing. The Chinese nation will never be defeated.

In 2020, it is difficult for Chinese students to study abroad.

Most international students risk taking the risk of being infected by the virus to continue the class. Wearing masks to go to school and kindly distributing your few masks to classmates in other classes is sometimes regarded as alien.

Thousands of miles apart, on the one side are the parents' ding and worry, on the other side are teamwork and deadline.

They did not start the holiday mode, more people adhere to a regular life, study hard and face optimistically.

Someone once said: "Loneliness is a compulsory course for international students." And this compulsory course, the new era of study abroad students have used their methods to make other wonderful things.

When school cafeterias, restaurants, and takeaways are closed, they inspire their own mysterious power from the East, making dumplings, steamed buns, or even sprouts ...

They learned to be self-reliant and omnipotent. Faced with video and telephone greetings from parents and relatives, they had to adjust their mentality first, acting like an "actor", performing the bright, safe, healthy and healthy life of studying abroad in the eyes of the world.

But I did not know that after the call was hung up, it was tears again and again. "While putting on domestic variety shows, while washing and cooking, I feel less lonely."

This is the normal state of the overseas students' epidemic at home. This is also the brave life of them living alone in a foreign country, and it is also the nirvana of their continuous self-growth.

Finally, I wish every Chinese student overseas a safe and healthy life. (Duan Lian)
