It all began in a totally casual in appearance. January 17 to 14 h 20, after receiving a private message, Professor Yu Jianrong has suddenly decided to open a new conversation about him microblogging Weibo. "What a disgrace! Yang Weixin, a 6-year-old native of Quanzhou, Fujian Province, was abducted in 2009 and deliberately mutilated to go beg in the streets.
In early 2010, a user has noticed a street in Xiamen and took pictures. Today, it is not known what became of him. The call for help on the really challenged me, "he wrote and published. Followed the link to a message posted by the mother of Yang Weixin on the forum to serve the citizens of Fuzhou.
So unexpected, this meager microblog was relayed about ten thousand times and has resulted in more than two thousand comments. Even if the number of followers of Yu Jianrong exceeded three hundred thousand [475,000 today], this amplification is still amazing. Among Internet users to act that quickly relayed the message without attaching great importance - too busy preparing for the new year - none of them probably thought that this gesture would trigger ordinary citizen momentum on a scale virtually unprecedented.
The movement, which is not blown it, involves both university professors that stars millions of followers, public safety officers, wealthy businessmen, associations experienced journalists and even ordinary Internet users with just a cell phone. All have chosen voluntarily to engage in this action.
For many, it was probably the first time they realized they could really do something for themselves and especially their ability to change the fate of many children reduced to beggary. The idea came gradually to Yu Jianrong. In this process, which has really played a role, these are the treasures of intelligence implemented by countless anonymous users.
20 January 2011, having relayed a message from the cell responsible for anti-child abduction within the Department of Public Safety, Yu Jianrong gave a new dimension to his appeal by asking Internet users across China to take pictures of young beggars all met in the street, then publish them online.
Five days later, a microblog specific account has been created to gather the results of this activity and recruited volunteers for its management. Half an hour after the opening of microblogging, the first photo of a little beggar has been posted. She was taken in Sanya, on Hainan Island.
The user with the pseudonym of "monkey Sese" is the account manager dedicated to pictures of children beggars posted to save them. "Do not imagine that we're a well disciplined. For some things, we are moving in the dark, "he said. Volunteers work in a hurry, without a fixed schedule. "Monkey Sese wrote a fairly comprehensive documentation to standardize some tasks, hoping to quickly hire a full-time volunteer.
Itself works as a webmaster of a site. It is impossible to concentrate on the job full time. 200 000 pairs of eyes According to Hu Wei, head of the Foundation for orphans in China, the account are already more than 200,000 followers. It is as if 200,000 pairs of eyes were watching. Such figures are encouraging and motivate Wei Hu to continue on this path, but it also worries him.
The subject has provoked a very important engagement, but it also raises many questions. Many people are beginning to wonder if they fight against abduction or cons begging - and if this citizens' movement has not deviated from its original intentions. "If ever one day you make a mistake, we may drown as many people will spit on us", said Hu Wei with emotion.
Still, he said, resolved. "If all it saves even one person, it would be worth the trouble anyway," says he. That may ultimately the population? Although this movement has designated as the "fight against kidnappings with the microblog" Yu Jianrong argues that he wishes above all to save the child beggars and that this is not the same thing to fight against kidnapping.
"The kidnappings are the responsibility of the police. We, ordinary citizens, what could we do in this area? "
