The father in the photo is named Ran Guanghui. He is a member of the "Bangbang" army in Chongqing. The profession of "Bangbang" is unique to Chongqing and refers to living on a stick. people.

Chongqing is built on the mountains at the intersection of two rivers, so walking through the streets and alleys requires climbing uphill and uphill, and vehicles cannot enter. The unique geographical location gave birth to the special professional group "Bangbang".

Ran Guanghui has been working in Chongqing Chaotianmen Wholesale Market for many years. A package of goods weighs several dozen kilograms and weighs hundreds of kilograms. Ran Guanghui carries it up and down the ladder sill, over and over again.

That day, when he was carrying more than 100 kilograms of goods and leading his three-year-old son Ran Junchao down the ladder, he happened to be photographed by photographer Xu Kangping. Just like that, he became famous.

Later, many media interviewed and filmed his story, and some TV stations invited him to participate in reality shows.

Ran Guanghui was already an acquaintance in the wholesale market before he became popular. Many stall owners knew him and thought he was honest and strong, so they liked him to help deliver goods.

In fact, when Ran Guanghui became famous, he had just entered the Bangbang industry not long ago. He was originally farming in the countryside of his hometown of Dianjiang County. He would only come to the city to help others pick goods to earn some money during slack periods.

Until 2009, Ran Guanghui, who was almost 40 years old, decided to take his wife and children to the city in order to provide better living conditions for his family. The first thing he thought of was to become a "Bangbang". Start looking for work at Chaotianmen Wholesale Market.

The profession of Bangbang is really not something that ordinary people can do. Not only do you have to have a lot of strength, but you also have to have the toughness not to be afraid of hardship.

Ran Guanghui’s daily job is to carry and deliver goods. It is common to carry heavy goods up and down ladders and walk dozens of miles.

A package of goods can range from dozens of kilograms to hundreds of kilograms. It costs 10 yuan to pick up a load, and 50 cents for a 50-jin bag of rice, three bags at a time.

The heaviest cargo Ran Guanghui has ever carried weighed 235 kilograms, and he has to carry and deliver about a ton of cargo every day.

In order to make more money, Ran Guanghui's working hours are also very regular. No matter spring, summer, autumn or winter, he sets out at five or six in the morning and arrives home at five or six in the afternoon.

The posture of carrying goods will never change. First, take off your shirt and use your skin to block the goods to prevent them from sliding down. Carrying a bag of more than two hundred kilograms of goods from the first floor to the tenth floor will cost ten dollars. For a few minutes or half an hour, you can earn around 10 yuan, all paid in cash.

Just working like this day after day, now ten years have passed, how is Ran Guanghui doing now?

Although a photo became popular back then, it did not change much in Ran Guanghui’s life. He is still doing a “bangbang” job.

"It's just that business is better than before. The bosses all trust me and say they have seen me on TV and I am reliable."

After years of hard work, Ran Guanghui I finally moved out of the small house of just over 20 square meters that I rented, and bought a house in the city center near Chongqing’s Jiefangbei in 2016.

The house is more than 60 square meters and costs more than 400,000 yuan. Calculated at 10 yuan per package, he needs to carry 40,000 packages to buy this house.

Although it is a second-hand house, the house is not big and there is no elevator, but compared with the dilemma when renting a house, he is already very satisfied.

"Everyone has their own room, which is much better than before."

Ran Guanghui's family finally has their own small home in this city, and their son does not need to No matter how much I do my homework under the kitchen light, my wife doesn’t have to worry about the rent increase.

Now his wife has opened a small shop selling wedding cakes, and the business is not bad.

But what makes Ran Guanghui most gratified is that his son Ran Junchao, who was still a toddler, has now grown into a junior high school student with an outgoing personality. Class president and history class representative.

Not only does Ran Junchao not have any inferiority complex about his father's profession, he is actually very proud of it.

In his opinion, his father’s job is not inferior. He supports the family with his hard-working hands and contributes to society. He is a very great person. He hopes that he can work hard. Study so that you can support your family as soon as possible so that your father can retire early.

It seems that he is also a very sensible child. Now ten years have passed and Ran Guanghui is in his 50s. Years of physical labor have often made his body suffer from minor ailments, but he does not dare to stop.

When someone asks, "Master Ran, how many more years are you ready to carry?" Ran Guanghui would smile and say, "Ten to fifteen years. When the children grow up, they should be able to take a break." ”

Affected by the epidemic this time, Ran Guanghui lost more than a month of income, and he was eager to resume work. Now that everything is back to normal, he can go out and deliver goods every day again.

His latest wish is to earn enough money to buy a tablet for his son. “Even if I borrow money, I still have to buy it for him. After all, I agreed.”

After all, now, China's ability to become one of the world's powerful countries cannot be separated from millions of hard-working Chinese people. This is an important foundation for our economic development, and Ran Guanghui is undoubtedly the most appropriate representative of hard work.

There is a special power in him. He uses his backbone to hold up the sky for his family uprightly, and also makes countless people who are struggling silently like him feel the kindness and value of life.

And his story also allows us to see that with 360 skills, he is the number one scholar. As long as he works and lives steadily, everything will get better and better.
