By Zhang Cuiying

(Clearwisdom.net) Early yesterday morning, a reporter had been waiting to interview me for more than half an hour at my painting exhibition, and when I met with her, she was without any complaint. I apologized to her. We then talked for two and a half hours. She felt it was almost inconceivable that there could be kind of persecution I experienced in Chinese prison and that there were such inhuman tortures in the 21st century. She took down a lot of notes.

She showed up at the opening ceremony at night and arranged to take some photos the next day. I was touched by her earnestness, kindness, and sense of responsibility.

Today, she called again during the photo shoot and scheduled to come to the exhibition hall and learn the Falun Gong exercises today at 6 o'clock. She was very clever and learned the five sets of exercises quickly and could sit in lotus cross-legged position right away. She also interviewed a few other practitioners and took Zhuan Falun with her with a sincere attitude.

Everyday, there were reporters who came to the exhibition and scheduled times for the following days. Reporters from a well-known Chinese newspaper also came. I clarified the truth of Dafa to a Chinese reporter and the truth about the persecution against Falun Gong in China. He changed his opinion. Since the opening ceremony of my painting exhibition, two reporters came everyday to learn the exercises.

After listening to my experience of the eight-month persecution in Chinese prison, a reporter from a radio station said she was glad to learn my story. She also said that she would send my story to a friend who worked for a magazine and help let more Israeli people know the truth of Falun Gong.
