1. Introduction

I'm Zuofen. I come from China. I was born in a rural village in 1976. When I was a child, I had many friends to play with. We played on the field growing with grass and little wild flowers. There was no kindergarten in the village. Before we went to school, nature was the playground. Until now, I can recall the smell of field air mixed with green grass.

My parents were farmers. The farm's beautiful scenes of yellow canola, golden wheat and rice were much impressed on me, as well as my parents' hard work. I more and more understand the feelings between a farmer and the earth. Farmers sowed the seeds, and enjoyed the harvest. No pain, no gain. My parents always told me.

2. Family

I have one brother and one sister. I'm the youngest child. I'm always loved by all of them. I spent a happy childhood. Nowadays I also try to bring a happy childhood of freedom and creativity to my child. The love from the family in childhood will warm up the whole life.

I went to a boarding middle school and then a boarding high school. The schools were more and more far away. In middle school, I came back home once a week by a 6 km trek. In high school, I came back home once a month by a 30 km bus ride. In the boarding schools, I learned how to take care of myself and become independent. 

At that time, China had a planned economy, no market economy yet. Most families were not rich. But my parents did their best to support me. They were proud of my excellent performance in school.

3. Education

In 1994, I passed the university's entry examination and entered into an university. I majored in electronic communication system. My classmates were from different places of China. We lived in a dormitory. There were eight girls in one big bedroom. We studied, we played, we talked and we sang. It was a happy period of my life. And I also spent much time reading the library books.

I 1998, I completed the bachelor degree and entered into another university to proceed to the degree of Master in telecommunication system. I did some research under my tutorial teacher. It was interesting that I met a kind and diligent young man in a research project. Then I became his wife after four years. Fate seemed bound together.

4. Jobs

In 2001, I started my career life after completed my master degree. The first company was Huawei Technology. It has been a big and famous company in China since 1990's. I focused on the 3G wireless communication research and development. There were several Doctors in the team. I learned a lot from them. Each team member worked hard and always worked overtime in order to advance the 3G demo and the commercial net. 

In 2004, I changed to another company named Shanghai Bell because I got married in 2003 and our new house was far from the previous company. I worked in Shanghai Bell till 2013. During nine years' cooperative work, some of my colleagues became my friends. We keep contact till now.

5. Hobbies

I like walking, especially on a sunny morning.

I like travelling to some original places to see the nature and touch different culture.
