As for Liu Zhizhong's birth and growth, alas... to put it plainly, it was also filled with tears of hardship.
His father was criticized and discriminated against, only at forty-something did he marry a deaf-mute woman, who became Liu Zhizhong's mother.
His mother died in childbirth, but Liu Zhizhong was tough and survived.
The good times didn't last long. At seven, his father, with a lame leg, helped others with work, walked home at night, drank some alcohol, fell into a pond, and drowned.
Not long after that, Liu Zhizhong was sent to the orphanage. Then, he was adopted by Old Lame, forming a family with a shoemaker and a sanitation worker as a foster mother, living together. The hardships of life need not be mentioned.
By the time he went to university, his foster parents also passed away one after another, and he only graduated with excellent marks by relying on student loans, work-study, and doing part-time jobs.
