As the train went north, the scenery outside the window kept changing. After leaving Hong Kong, Cheng Yenan and Sun Aijun admired the scenery of the mainland outside the window. Cheng Yenan told Sun Aijun about his experience of traveling across the country to engage in immigration agency business in Hong Kong.

Nan Yangsheng and Wanru sat on the train, and Nan Yangsheng continued to tell his story of Wuhan's wartime control during the epidemic.

Nan Yangsheng said: At that time, the Hubei Provincial Novel Coronavirus Infected Pneumonia Epidemic Prevention and Control Headquarters issued a circular, requiring all kinds of enterprises in the province to resume work no earlier than 24:00 on February 20. On the same day, Huanggang City announced the implementation of fully enclosed wartime control, and all communities will implement fully enclosed management. Dawu County, Xiaogan City announced the implementation of a wartime control order.

On February 14, the Wuhan New Coronary Pneumonia Epidemic Prevention and Control Headquarters issued a notice clarifying the main measures for the closed management of residential quarters. Closed management is implemented for residential quarters, and only one entrance and exit is reserved for each community. Old communities and open residential areas are hard-separated by enclosing them. Arrange personnel at the entrance and exit to be on duty 24 hours a day, register for temperature measurement, and review and release. Except for those who seek medical treatment, epidemic prevention, and operation guarantee, other residents are not allowed to go out. All personnel entering and leaving the community will have their temperature measured and registered. Outsiders are not allowed to enter the community without special reasons. Yunmeng County of Xiaogan City and Honghu City of Jingzhou City announced the implementation of wartime control orders.

The Qingshan District Epidemic Prevention and Control Headquarters of Wuhan issued Order No. 15, which stipulates the detailed management rules for the closure and control of all communities within the jurisdiction, requiring that each household can only assign one person to purchase supplies every three days.

On February 16, the Hubei Provincial New Coronary Pneumonia Epidemic Prevention and Control Headquarters issued a notice. In addition to strengthening the control of vehicle traffic, the notice clarified that all non-essential public places will be closed, and all mass gathering activities will be stopped. At the same time, retail pharmacies will implement drug purchase registration. According to the system, personal information must be registered for those who buy medicines such as cold medicine, fever and cough medicine, and antipyretic medicine. Jingzhou District of Jingzhou City announced the implementation of fully enclosed management.

On February 17, Xiaogan City announced the implementation of fully enclosed management.

On February 20, the Hubei Provincial New Coronary Pneumonia Epidemic Prevention and Control Headquarters issued a circular, requiring all types of enterprises in Hubei Province, except those necessary for epidemic prevention and control, the operation of public utilities, the needs of the people's lives, and other related enterprises related to the national economy and people's livelihood. For enterprises, the resumption of work shall be postponed until no earlier than 24:00 on March 10. Tertiary institutions, primary and secondary schools, vocational schools, technical colleges, and kindergartens in the province continue to postpone the start of school.

At 11:34 on February 24, the Wuhan New Coronary Pneumonia Epidemic Prevention and Control Headquarters issued Announcement No. 17, announcing the latest management measures for personnel and vehicles entering and leaving Wuhan. It is mentioned that people from other places who are stranded in Wuhan and those who have to go out of the city due to epidemic protection reasons can go out of the city, but they must adhere to the principle of going out of the city on a staggered peak, in batches, and in a timely, safe and orderly manner. As soon as the announcement came out, it promoted the resurgence of the "February countercurrent" of "escaping from Wuhan", which caused panic among the people and was also criticized by public opinion. At 15:01, Wuhan announced that "Notice No. 17" was invalid, and said that this matter was issued by the traffic prevention and control team under the city headquarters without the consent of the main leaders of the headquarters. Wuhan will continue to strictly manage the Lihan channel and strictly control personnel. , to prevent the spread of the epidemic.

On the same day, Ying Yong, Secretary of the Hubei Provincial Party Committee of the Communist Party of China, presided over a work meeting of the headquarters, emphasizing the need to continue to strictly control the passage from Han to Hubei. The next day, the National Health and Medical Commission also requested that Hubei continue to take the most stringent prevention and control measures and strictly control the export of personnel.

On February 27, Ying Yong, secretary of the Hubei Provincial Party Committee of the Communist Party of China, presided over a meeting of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, emphasizing that the prison system, detention centers and other units must strictly guard against death, and in principle only enter and exit; suspend outsiders from entering nursing homes; continue to strengthen communities (villages) closed management.

Nan Yangsheng said to Wanru:

In response to the "February countercurrent" of "escaping from Wuhan", other provinces and cities have also adopted closed management measures and strengthened admission and isolation measures. Some roads have been closed in some areas to prevent the spread of pneumonia. Most of the villages, communities, and units in closed management areas have only one entrance and exit, and the number of entries and exits for each household is limited. In some places, entry and exit are prohibited at night, and in extreme cases, entry and exit are prohibited throughout the day. People entering and leaving are required to wear masks and undergo temperature checks. In some areas, access tickets are issued to the public, and they can enter and exit with the tickets and valid certificates. Some areas also allow citizens to self-declare on WeChat mini-programs or official accounts and some apps, and enter and exit with system authentication codes. Couriers and takeaway personnel are usually prohibited from entering. The control of communities with confirmed cases is stricter.

So far on February 12, 2020, there are at least 9 first-level administrative regions in mainland China that have announced the implementation of closed management. These include 4 municipalities directly under the central government, 4 provinces and 1 autonomous region, a total of 156 secondary administrative regions. There are at least 51 secondary administrative regions in other provinces and cities, a total of 207, including 26 provincial capitals and sub-provincial cities; among them, cities that have been upgraded to fully enclosed wartime control have 2 secondary administrative regions.

Nan Yangsheng sighed to Wanru: What is difficult to recall is that the official media at the time reported that because the provinces and cities adopted the "February Countercurrent" to curb "escaping from Wuhan", they strengthened the admission and isolation measures. The number of newly confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia in the country continued to decline in a single day. The shortage of medical resources in Wuhan, the epicenter of the epidemic, has also been alleviated. Is the truth really like this? The fact of fighting the epidemic for three years has proved that the so-called zeroing has no scientific basis.

Nan Yangsheng recalled:

I remember that the citizens were more worried about the lack of masks. Masks are consumables and are used in large quantities. And experts say that only N95 masks can effectively prevent the virus. But in fact, we can't buy such masks at all. If you buy online, you must wait until the end of the year to receive it. I was a volunteer in the shelter hospital at the time, and the masks were distributed by the hospital. But citizens must wear masks, but they cannot buy them. Some colleagues and friends sent them, but they couldn’t receive them; some bought non-branded ones, and they didn’t dare to use them when they saw information about recycling masks on the Internet and processing them for resale. Almost everyone only had one or two left, so they had to encourage each other and say, save some. The joke is true. Masks have indeed replaced pork and become the most in-demand item during the Chinese New Year.

I believe that there must be a lot of ordinary citizens in Wuhan who lack masks. And I also believe that there is no shortage of masks, what is missing is how to get them to the public. A patient living in a shelter hospital told me that the N95 he was wearing cost 35 yuan a mask, which was 5 yuan more expensive than the one in Shanghai. A bag of 25 will cost 875 yuan. The patient blamed the merchant: "How can you be so black-hearted at this time?" The merchant replied that the supplier raised the price, so we had no choice but to raise the price.

Wanru talked about the writer Fang Fang.

She recalled: When this pandemic came, I was still taking classes at the university. The students are all forwarding Fang Fang's WeChat account. She has been speaking out publicly, which has caused a new round of turmoil and reflection in society. Fang Fang's "Wuhan Diary (January 25-February 18)" has become a hot search on the Internet.

What exactly did Fang Fang want to say? What did she say again? Fang Fang said, as a writer, I should use my pen to praise the famous and unsung heroes who are on the front line of epidemic prevention and control day and night. Shameless throwing stones into the well and looking coldly. In the face of severe changes in the epidemic, sharing weal and woe, working together, and saving lives is the top priority. We want to tell the present and the future that we know what great love is, what power is, and what the hearts of the people want. When the Wuhan epidemic broke out, no one in the world could correctly point out what the virus is? Where does the poison come from? The spread of the poisonous bacteria is so wide and fast that it has caused panic among the people and there is a lot of discussion, which is beyond doubt. Experts couldn't find a cure for a while, scholars couldn't tell the origin of the virus, and officials couldn't come up with measures to control the epidemic. The epidemic stunned the Chinese people and the world. The epidemic has re-examined the existing medical system and medical challenges, and past mistakes have been revealed one by one. The people of Wuhan were all locked down. The city was closed and the roads and homes were closed. They could not leave their homes, buy masks, or receive medical assistance. Therefore, complaints and complaints flooded the Internet. Some law enforcement officers not only want to implement the orders of their superiors, but also prevent those who ignore the prohibition from resisting. They have adopted excessive and excessive violence in law enforcement, which has turned public grievances into public anger, which is unacceptable across the world. China has always emphasized that "responsibility does not punish the public", so who should bear the responsibility? I began to think calmly: What is the most urgent thing to do in the face of the sudden outbreak of the epidemic? I am a writer, what is the responsibility of a writer? It is the drum and shout for the times. Writers are concerned with exploring the true meaning of human nature and social justice.

...

Nanyang Sheng sighed:

This epidemic is weird and sinister, and it is undoubtedly a disaster for the nation and the country. The whole world has seen clearly what is China's epidemic prevention policy? The epidemic prevention that China is still adopting so far is "mask sealing". When important leaders appear, everyone except the top leader must wear a mask. If you are the governor, you must wear a mask when attending relevant central meetings, and only the boss can not wear it. When the governor holds a local meeting, the governor may not wear a mask, but his subordinates must wear masks. This is the weird landscape of China's epidemic prevention.
