Coworkers of a Practitioner Successfully Appeal for His Release and Celebrate His Return with Firecrackers

After the article "I Definitely Want to Promote Falun Gong Practitioners" was published on the Minghui Website (Chinese version of Clearwisdom), the police from a city in China started to closely monitor and scrutinize foreign and privately owned companies in order to persecute Falun Gong practitioners who work for them. One night in December 2008, the local police arrested a high level executive, Mr. Gao Sheng, on the charge of "sabotaging social stability."

The next morning when his coworkers heard about Gao Sheng's arrest, they were indignant and flocked to the company CEO's office to appeal for him.

"Chief, I want to ask how Gao Sheng sabotaged social stability? He has worked for our company for over ten years since his graduation. Because he practices Falun Gong, he enjoys good health and takes fame and self-interest lightly. He would not have a conflict with anyone. He has been diligent in his work and has generated benefits for both the company and the country. As we know, those state owned companies are losing business and laying off workers. In contrast, his efforts created jobs for five thousand workers. The police under the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)'s rule would not thank him. Instead, they charged him with 'sabotaging social stability' and arrested him. Who is the one sabotaging social stability?"

"Chief, I want to ask if those CCP owned companies can find executives as good as Gao Sheng. He is not corrupt, does not gamble or visit prostitutes, and does not have any bad habits. After practicing Falun Gong, he has enjoyed great health and has not used a penny in medical care from the company for 14 years. Such a good person can still sabotage social stability? If so, those corrupt CCP officials and policemen are protecting social stability? This is really a reversal of black and white."

"The CCP police do not perform their duties well at all. Instead, they won't allow Gao Sheng to appeal for his wife, who was arrested, beaten and imprisoned for practicing Falun Gong. What kind of society is this? Today we are asking for a leave of absence, because we plan to go to the city CCP committee and city government and argue with the city CCP secretary and mayor on behalf of Gao Sheng. We don't believe they will not release him."

The CCP representative stationed at the foreign company heard about the situation and realized it was grave. He telephoned his superiors and after half an hour received the order from above, "Release Gao Sheng immediately." On that afternoon, the local police notified the company CEO to take Gao Sheng back.

When Gao Sheng came back to the company in the CEO's sedan, all of his coworkers came out and set off firecrackers to welcome him and to celebrate.

"Hats off to Falun Gong Practitioners!"

By a practitioner from Yunnan Province

A few days ago, I came across a former colleague with whom I had lost contact for many years. He knew in the past that I was a Falun Gong practitioner. I was planning to tell him more about Falun Gong. Before I even started, he warmly hugged me and told me that he usually went to the local park for morning exercises and often saw materials about Falun Gong and the persecution that had been prepared and left there by practitioners. As he was telling me this, he took out a Falun Gong flyer that he had saved for a long time, "I am one of the biggest supporters of Falun Gong. I sympathize with Falun Gong practitioners. They are all good people. They tell us about Falun Gong even under this harsh environment. Please send my greetings to them. Hats off to Falun Gong practitioners."

I told him that he would be rewarded with good fortune in return for his positive view of Dafa. Then I continued to tell him about quitting the CCP, the Communist Youth League and the Young Pioneers. After just a few words, he agreed to quit the Young Pioneers that he had joined when he was little. I asked him whether he had read the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party. He said not yet but wanted to very much. I promised him that I would give him a copy next time. He was pleased, "Then I will definitely read it and store it well."

Company Executives Refuse to Take Part in Persecuting a Practitioner

A practitioner from a county in the Zhangjiakou area told the truth about Falun Gong and the persecution to his company executives, who later resisted the order from the CCP to persecute practitioners.

In mid-December 2008, the local county's 610 Office planned to investigate all practitioners in the county and tried to coerce them to give up their practice of Falun Gong. When the 610 Office ordered the company executives to fetch the forms for entering investigative information about practitioners, the executives were indignant and refused, "The CCP not only persecutes Falun Gong practitioners, they also persecute us, the general public."
