Inorder to find out what
the life it was in the past
in China, I
intervewed a grangpa in our
shool
’
s little
park, who is at about his
60s.
Q(Question):
Hello,
nice
to
meet
you.
Thank
you
for
accepting
my interview.
A(Answer):
Nice to meet you
too.
Q:
Em, you
look like about at 60s, right? Would you like
to tell me when people mostly used
bikes?
A:
Yeah,
I
was
born
in
1953
and
I
’
m
61years
old
now.
Actually, you know China was been named
of
“
The Kingdom
of Bicycle
”
in
the past. I remember my grandpa told me
that
bicycle
was
introduced
in
China
in
the
late
19
century.
Then
in
1960s,
1970s,
when
I
was
a
young
man,
bicycle
along
with
sewing
machine
and
watch
became
the
necessary
three-major-items
of
marriage.
Bicycle
became
really
popular in the 1980s,
it was the most important and most
universal
vehicle
at
that
moment,
the
famous
brands
included
“
Yong
jiu
”
,
“
Fenghuang
”
,
“
Feige
”
.
The
flow
of
thousands
of
bicycles
during
the
rush
hour
was
extremly
awesome
which
made
China
became
“
The
Kingdom
of
Bicycle
”
.
th
You might cannot realize
that kind of feeling, but you
have
to
know
who
had
a
bicycle
at
that
time
woule
be
jealous
by others, especially our young
guys.
Q:
But
a
bicycle
must
be
very
expensive
at
that
time,
right?
A:
Certainly! One bicycle costed about 200
yuanat that
time while
people
’
s salary just a few
dozen yuan. It
’
s
very precious.
Q:
Em, what about bus? When buses
appeared? And how the
buses
of
today
compare
with
the
buses
when
you
were
young?
A:
Haerbin
’
s buses
were developed in the 1950s. When I
was
young , buses in Haerbin were still not
widespread,
just several bus-lines were
operated. What
’
s more, the
buses
’
environment and situation were not very well when
compared with the buses of
today.
Q:
Well, I
got it. How life was in your
20s
’
,
30s
’
, and
40s
’
? And every
day life how it changed when you grew
older?
A:
In my 20s
’
, what
I remember most was that you had
to
take the tickets or certificates to buy all the
things
you wanted and needed , and the
number of those stuff was
fixed by
government, so you couldn
’
t
buy a lot even you
had money.
Like the
liquor,
you
had to
buy
it in
state-run
