Zheng Fengxi Former Residence Introduction
Zheng Fengxi was born with two distinct feet; his right foot was curved in various directions below the knee, while his left foot was atrophied. His mother fainted at the sight, fearing that their impoverished family would not be able to care for him. However, Zheng Fengxi persisted and eventually graduated from university, achieving great success. He documented his challenging journey of growth and education in the poignant book "A Ship in the Ocean," which became a bestseller with over a million copies sold and was adapted into a movie, resonating with the hearts of many. He was also elected as one of the Ten Outstanding Young Persons for exemplifying the spirit of resilience and determination in overcoming physical disabilities. Although his former residence is a simple Sanhe courtyard, it has preserved many relics of Mr. Zheng's life, including utensils, books, and musical instruments he used. The preservation of this site emphasizes its historical and cultural significance, embodying the spirit of Zheng Fengxi's relentless pursuit of progress.
