Chinese business network - New Culture newspaper
two
Mariko Sato
before the new year, Zhang Zhihong came to the newspaper door and saw the new culture reporter, and the first word she said was thanks.
she had just returned from Japan to Changchun soon, and this time she came back to find a pen friend of her own students more than 50 years ago.
Zhang Zhihong has been living in Japan for many years, teaching Chinese in Japan, and the students in the class call her Mr. Zhang. Ms. Mariko Sato is one of her students. "She is very easy-going, and she is very serious in learning Chinese. She had a pen pal in Changchun more than 50 years ago, but for some reason she lost contact. I want to help her find this pen pal, her dream. Zhang Zhihong said.
the old man's speech touched the class's person
Mariko Sato, who was 75 years old, retired at home this year. She was a local civil servant in Yokohama. Zhang Zhihong did not know the origin of Lady of truth and China and her hometown. "Mrs. Mariko Sato, who was named Okura Mariko before his marriage, also met a pen pal from Changchun at that time. Last year, she took part in my advanced Chinese class. At a student composition presentation, her topic was "my pen friend". Zhang Zhihong said.
Mrs. truth tells her experience in correspondence with a pen pal in China. "She was 17 years old, and the pen friend of Changchun, Li Bingchun, 22 years old, was known through the Japan China Friendship Association, the young people of the 50s of the last century, encouraging each other's life, talking to each other's ideals, no love, and some sincere friendship. Our whole class was moved by her, and I was determined to help her fulfill her wish. Zhang Zhihong said.
the description of the pen friend let her want to come to Changchun
recently, the lady of truth sent emails to the new cultural journalist and introduced the process of her communication with the old Li Bingchun. Their communications began in 1957 and lasted until the 60s of last century. Although they were far away, they still kept in touch with difficulties. "At that time, we were all young people and talked about a lot of topics, including the two countries, our work, life and so on. We talked freely, so every time he wrote 5 to 8 pages of paper in a very small word, he was very talkative and talented, and his Japanese could speak very well, without any obstacles, and very beautiful. So I think he must be very good. " Mari Ko said.
can be seen from the change in the address. In 1957, Li Bingchun lived in 96 of the first car factory in Changchun, and to March 1958, he moved to 95 and 102 in 1960. "In the more than 30 letters that have been cherished in the hands of Lady truth, Li Bingchun knew that he had worked in Japanese translation, and he also studied Russian and Translated Russian." Zhang Zhihong said.
in each other's letters, they also introduce the cities where they live. Li Bingchun told Ms. truth about the streets of Changchun, the buildings on the streets, the changes in the four seasons of Changchun, when the most beautiful and best to see. It is also because of Li Bingchun's letter that the lady of truth loves Changchun and wants to visit Changchun. "They also agreed that they would meet one day." Zhang Zhihong said.
has also looked for this Changchun pen pal
in the 60s of last century, because of some changes, their communications ended, but the truth has not forgotten Li Bingchun for years. "With the increase in the Chinese in Japan, I gradually learned some Chinese and met some Chinese friends and made some pen friends, but Li Bingchun has always been one of my most chatting friends. I commissioned many Chinese friends to look for Mr. Li, but none of them came to the conclusion. Said the truth, lady.
know Zhang Zhihong, and know that Mr. Zhang's hometown is also Changchun, and Ms. Zhen is very excited. "I want to try again and try to finish my wish that I can't put down. This is probably the last time I can find it. If I can't find it, I will have no other way. " Said the truth, lady.
in order to help the truth lady find pen pal, Zhang Zhihong has been busy after returning to Changchun. "Contacted Li Bingchun where he worked, but unfortunately there was no clue." Zhang Zhihong said.
day by day, the lady of truth seems to miss her simple friendship more and more. She really wants to find Li Ping Chun and talk about life with him again. "If he is still alive, I hope to see him in Changchun or anywhere else. If he is not there, I can hand over the letters I have treasured for so many years to his family and leave them a memento. Said the truth, lady.
