The 425th Disabled Veterans ＂Teach People to Fish＂ to Help Villagers Start a Business and Get Rich.

Cctv news Once, he dedicated himself to the country, and his iron will showed the true colors of soldiers; Today, he is physically disabled and determined, and he has retired as a "poverty fighter." He is Chen Zhikun. He was drafted into the army in 1981. Unfortunately, he was injured in the battle and won the second class merit. He could have enjoyed the preferential treatment of the state for a lifetime, but he was glowing on the road to entrepreneurship. He believes that "the body can’t move, the brain can move, and it can make a little contribution to society."

After Chen Zhikun retired from the army, Zhenning County, Anshun City, Guizhou Province, provided him with a house of more than 90 square meters in accordance with the regulations of the state on special care for civil affairs, and he can also be supported by the state for life. However, he resolutely rejected the kindness of the organization to arrange work for him and decided to start his own business.

Chen Zhikun had motorcycle maintenance technology when he was in the army. After returning home, he re-learned this craft with reference to a large number of materials, and he quickly became a master in the industry while learning and practicing. In 1994, Chen Zhikun opened a motorcycle repair department. Apart from excellent repair technology and low cost, he also recruited unemployed and disabled young people in society to learn repair technology for free. It didn’t take long for many apprentices in Chen Zhikun to become one of the few million households at that time with the good skills they learned.

With years of hard work, Chen Zhikun has created a miracle of entrepreneurship for the disabled. At that time, Chen Zhikun’s hometown was still poor, and he was deeply disturbed. He decided to drive his neighbors to get rich together. So, Chen Zhikun said goodbye to his family with a start-up capital of 500,000 yuan and returned to Qishan Village, Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province, where he was born and raised.

After discussing with the village cadres, he founded the 2,000-square-meter "Rongjun Breeding Demonstration Farm in Qishan Village, Machang Township, Zhenning Autonomous County" to attract many poor households in the village to work in the farm. In 2007, Chen Zhikun founded Guizhou Qianningxiang Green Food Development Co., Ltd., focusing on breeding sows and fattening pigs, and in 2008, he founded Rongjun Breeding Cooperative. Under the leadership of Chen Zhikun, a through-train system of breeding, storage, transportation and sales has been formed, and more than 40 technical backbones have been trained. In training, purchasing breeding pigs, breeding, epidemic prevention, technical guidance, purchase and sales, he gave 40% of his annual profits to veterans and disabled people engaged in farming.

Feng Zufang is one of the villagers that Chen Zhikun helped. Feng Zufang was engaged in raising pigs before he joined Chen Zhikun’s company, but because he didn’t know scientific breeding technology, he could only make ends meet and sometimes even lost money. After joining the breeding association, her family’s economic income has increased significantly. At most, she can slaughter about 100 pigs a year, with an annual income of not less than 20,000 yuan.

Chen Zhikun "taught people to fish" through his own technical ability, so that those poor people can completely end the poverty situation. He has trained more than 8,000 breeding technicians for free, and inspired more than 9,000 farmers to practice scientific pig raising.

He is a fearless soldier on the battlefield; In starting a business, he is an entrepreneur who cares about his fellow villagers and elders, veterans and disabled people. He showed us the inner qualities of a soldier with his actions. Let’s say thank you to him!
