Mr. Chen Wen, about 75 years old, was a retiree of the Huangmei Opera Troupe. He was persecuted during the Cultural Revolution. One day during that time he jumped out of a third floor window. He was imprisoned for a total of 10 years. When he got out of jail and returned to his original job, he received very unfair treatment. For this reason, he always wanted to get revenge; he even thought of making bombs in order to make those who hurt him die together with him. But he never actually followed through on his plans, mainly because he didn't want to hurt innocent people. He was also getting older. He frequently contemplated jumping from a skyscraper, but he really did not want to die without resolving his hatred. He had once said that his life was just so hard.

Chen Wen started to learn Falun Gong at the end of 1995. After learning, his chronic illness of many years was cured; the tumor on his body, which had been diagnosed by doctors as impossible to cure, was also gone. The hatred in his heart and the sadness on his face were also gone. Since he learned Falun Gong he always followed the standard of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance in his conduct and thoughts. He constantly cleaned up the staircase of his apartment, and many times he cleaned and fixed the public washrooms. At one time he went to a bank to withdraw some money. By mistake the teller gave him too much money. He returned all of it right away. This kind of behavior shocked the bank workers who said, "It is hard to believe that in this world there still exist such noble and virtuous people."

During the six years of persecuting Falun Gong, the evil CCP and the head of the evil Jiang Zemin have been using each other to torture Dafa disciples. Mr. Chen Wen was also persecuted. In order to clarify the truth about Dafa and about the benefits he gained from Dafa, Mr. Chen wrote many letters to different levels of government and to the appeals offices. He also went to Tiananmen Square to validate the Fa and was illegally arrested by the police. Afterwards, because he practiced the Falun Dafa exercises in a park, he was arrested by some Huangzhou City Public Security officers, who placed him in detention. There he suffered brutal persecution. He was forced to do heavy labor, which exceeded his physical capabilities. After some 20 days of illegal detention, he was sent to a brainwashing class, where he suffered all kinds of inhumane tortures. His heart and body suffered tremendously.

About three months ago, Chen Wen went to another city to visit his relatives and tell them the facts about Falun Gong. Soon after his trip he was suddenly found dead. Sources say that the Huang Zhou Public Security Bureau was informed by a county officer that Chen Wen was found dead on the side of a field in the country area and that he still carried truth clarification materials with him. Other sources say that Chen Wen was beaten to death. The real situation is unknown.
