There is such a person, she is the first woman in China to gradually freeze, because of an accident, she was wiped out in the endless cold. Did she finally realize her dream of being with her family after 50 years? What kind of life is she living now? Walk into the life of Zhan Wenlian, the first frozen person in China, and feel the grandeur of medicine.
Unfathomable/unpredictable/incredible
In people's inherent impression, death has always been a frightening existence. The Chinese nation has experienced 5000 years of development, but for more than 5000 years, people's exploration of immortality has never stopped. In ancient times, when science and technology were underdeveloped, rulers tried their best to find elixir, but with the development of the times, people's hope of immortality no longer seemed dim.
Today, with the development of science and technology and medicine, a new word named cryonics appears in people's field of vision. Cryopreservation technology, as its name implies, is to freeze the human body through some special technical means.
All vital signs of people who receive cryonics will stop, which is similar to death. However, the current medical technology has not reached the point where cryonics can be thawed, so people have always had a very firm belief that we can wait for the moment when we are awakened by cryonics.
At present, cryonics technology has been implemented in developed countries such as the United States, and the institutions that provide this technology are profit-making companies, so the price of cryonics technology is also very expensive, and a person needs to pay 2 million US dollars to accept cryonics technology once. For ordinary people who want to pursue immortality, such a price is far beyond their affordability.

From the essence of cryonics technology, it is actually consistent with the operating principle of household appliances refrigerators. People who receive cryonics are placed in a low temperature environment, and the body organs stop working. The low temperature keeps the body fresh and youthful forever.
There is a famous cryonics user in China, and she is also the first person to cryonics in China. Her name is Zhan Wenlian. Zhan Wenlian's experience of becoming the first frozen girl in China was actually a mistake. Once, Zhan Wenlian suddenly fainted and was taken to the hospital. After careful examination, Zhan Wenlian was told that she was already a patient with advanced lung cancer.
When Zhan Wenlian, who was originally healthy, heard the shocking news, she suddenly lost her mind. It is hard for her to imagine that in just a few days, her life has entered the countdown. The doctor told her that at the current rate of development, she had only one year left.
In the following time, although Zhan Wenlian had been sentenced to death by the doctor, she still didn't give up the hope of living. She looked for doctors and medicines everywhere, trying to prolong her life, but she was hit again and again in reality.
Cancer cells seem to spread faster than expected, and Zhan Wenlian is under great psychological pressure. At the same time, physical pain is constantly tormenting Zhan Wenlian. At that time, she couldn't see hope and couldn't find the future.
In an accident, Zhan Wenlian learned a brand-new medical technology: cryonics. Under the low temperature condition of cryonics, the cancer cells in Zhan Wenlian's body will not spread, which makes Zhan Wenlian see a glimmer of hope. The current medical technology can't cure your disease, but after decades or even hundreds of years, it will definitely overcome the difficulty of cancer. Zhan Wenlian wants to put herself into sleep temporarily by cryonics technology, and then unseal herself for new treatment in the future.
accidental
The description of cryonics technology is beautiful, but for Zhan Wenlian's family, the price of cryonics technology is sky-high. In order to save Zhan Wenlian's life, they rushed to various fields for help, and finally got the answer after difficulties. A scientific charity foundation in China agreed to provide Zhan Wenlian with cryonics technology for free.
The current cryonics technology in China is still immature, and everything is still in the experimental stage. For the smooth development of cryonics technology, this foundation specially set up a freezer to preserve lotus bodies. Before receiving cryotherapy, Zhan Wenlian reached an agreement with her family: she will be resurrected in 50 years, and then she will be reunited with her family.
Zhan Wenlian was pushed onto the operating table and her heart stopped beating. The doctor took most of Zhan Wenlian's blood. At the same time, Zhan Wenlian was injected with a large number of medical drugs. These medical drugs can protect Zhan Wenlian's body and prevent her cells and organs from being destroyed at low temperature.
Cryopreservation technology finally succeeded. She slept in the freezer forever, waiting for the moment when the ice was released. Although medical technology is developing rapidly today, the mystery of cryonics technology is still unsolved. Modern medicine can only freeze people, but not thaw them.
Now, Zhan Wenlian, who is lying in the freezer, remains the same. She quietly waited for the day when she was highlighted, waiting for the coming new life. Now that she has lost all consciousness and is really isolated from the world, that initial dream has been with her and her family.
50 years of waiting is very long. Maybe one day in the future, Zhan Wenlian can really reunite with her family. However, everything in the world is changing rapidly. Maybe when Zhan Wenlian releases the ice, the world will be different. In any case, we are full of confidence in medical progress, in cryonics technology, and in the 50-year resurrection contract signed by Zhan Wenlian and his family. The future of modern medicine must be bright and full of vitality.
Life is only once, and everyone should cherish it doubly. At one time, we didn't have the right to choose our own life, but we did have the right to achieve our own life. Life is a bittersweet process. In this process, we will encounter numerous difficulties and obstacles, and at the moment when we control our own destiny, we also reach the peak of our life. I hope everyone can find their own direction in life, and it is really destiny takes a hand.
