    Reader note

    When we, in this peaceful era, open a book about sacrifice—why is *From Ordinary to Legend* worth reading late at night? I. This is not a book about war, but a book about "why it's worthwhile." In the autumn of 1943, at Qinglong Ridge in the Taihang Mountains, a brigade commander named Fu Bikang wrote his last letter in a trench: "If you see this letter, then I have fulfilled my mission. Do not grieve, I have no regrets in this life." Eighty years later, a young border guard read these words at his outpost late at night, tears streaming down his face. He commented in the book review section: "We are today's 'Ghost Squad'." This dialogue transcending time and space is the most powerful and moving force of *From Ordinary to Legend*—it brings the dusty history into the present, allowing us, in this peaceful era, to truly understand the full weight of the word "sacrifice" for the first time. II. What will you encounter in this book? 1. A fully fleshed-out hero, not just a name on a stone tablet. You will experience a remarkably multifaceted Fu Bikang: he was a Peking University graduate who gave up teaching for a gun, a husband who carved a pocket watch for his wife under the kerosene lamp, and an ordinary man who promised to "build roads and schools" for his village but could never fulfill that promise. His comrades are equally vivid—the meticulous chief of staff Fu Shuiheng, the political commissar Fu Biyue who recorded history with his pen, and Dr. Lin Wanning who wielded a scalpel like a gun. These figures will shatter all your stereotypes about "heroes." They have no halo, only choices. At every crucial moment, they chose the more difficult path—not because they were born great, but because they believed: some things are worth protecting with their lives. 2. A spiritual relay spanning eighty years. The most ingenious structure of the book is that it never stops in 1943. You will follow Fu Bikang's daughter, Fu Nian'an—a bridge engineer—to the construction site of the Yangtze River Bridge in 1980, to understand her father's dream of "building a road to peace." You will follow Lin Xiao, the granddaughter—a journalist—to discover the spontaneous "spiritual roots-seeking" trend among young readers in the online comment sections of 2024. There is a heart-wrenching detail in the book: when Fu Bikang sacrificed his life, his gaze was directed towards the rear hospital—where his wife was about to give birth. Eighty years later, his granddaughter stood atop Qinglong Ridge, looking down at the myriad lights of homes below, and softly said, "Dad, can you see it? This is the night you gave your life for." This is not a one-way remembrance, but a two-way journey. History reflects reality, and reality responds to history. 3. Redefining "Ordinary" and "Legendary" The most subversive viewpoint in the entire book is subtly contained in the title: From Ordinary to Legendary. You will see that Fu Bikang was initially just a scholar, Lin Wanning was initially just a doctor, and Fu Shuiheng was initially just a cautious advisor. Their legends were not the result of extraordinary talent, but rather the extraordinary choices they made at crucial moments. What's even more moving is that this "legendary" quality continues eighty years later: the forest ranger planting trees on Qinglong Ridge, the elderly teacher teaching in the countryside, the young soldier standing guard on the border, the surgeon fighting in the operating room—they all, on their respective "battlefields," have achieved a modern expression of the same spiritual qualities. A poignant line in the book reads: "Every era has its own battlefield. Where the smoke of war dissipates, new acts of protection are taking place." III. Why do you need to read this book today? Because in times of comfort, we need to understand the cost of "protection." When we complain about poor signal, someone risked their life in the trenches to transmit the final intelligence. When we discuss "lying down," someone chose to "die standing" so that future generations could "live standing." When we pursue personal happiness, someone placed the happiness of millions above their own lives. This is not moral coercion, but rather a broad perspective. "From Ordinary to Legend" doesn't demand you become a hero, but it will make you understand that everything you enjoy today—the morning soy milk, the evening sunset, children's laughter, the freedom of choice—was once valued more than your own life by some. Because when we are lost, we need to see a longer-term value compass. This book provides a value reference spanning eighty years. When you are troubled by "Is this job meaningful?", The figures in the book answer with their lives: the meaning lies not in the job itself, but in who you are protecting and why you persevere. Fu Bikang protected the mountains and rivers, Lin Wanning protected life, Fu Nian'an protected the roads, and Lin Xiao protected memories. And today, we can protect kindness, truth, innovation, and fairness in our respective fields. Because when we are lonely, we need to find kindred spirits. Reading this book will join a silent dialogue. A dialogue with the trenches of 1943, with the construction site of 1980, and with the outpost of 2024. You will discover: You are not alone in your struggle. You are not the first generation to face adversity. You are not the last generation to need protection. That resonance of "I'm not alone" is the rarest spiritual comfort in this fragmented era. IV. Opening this book will trigger three awakenings: First: An awakening of historical perspective—history is not a cold list of events, but a story of lives warmed by generations. Second: An awakening of self-awareness—even an ordinary person like myself can become a contemporary embodiment of a great spirit. Third: An awakening of responsibility to our times—"Inheritance" is not about reciting dogma, but about letting the light of the past illuminate the path of today. V. The best times to read: • When you feel life lacks meaning—this book will tell you that meaning lies in protecting others. • When you feel powerless against reality—this book will show that the deepest changes often come from the most enduring perseverance. • When you need to make a major choice—this book will remind you that the standard for choice can be: eighty years from now, will anyone thank you for your choice today? • When you want to understand your parents or communicate with your children—this book builds a spiritual bridge for intergenerational dialogue. Final Invitation: At the end of *From Ordinary to Legend*, an "everlasting lamp" burns quietly on Qinglong Ridge. That wasn't a real flame, but a symbol of spirit. Author Fu Nian'an wrote at the age of eighty-seven: "My father's life ended in 1943, but his spirit is realized in the lights of countless homes today." This book itself is an ever-burning lamp. It illuminates the past, allowing us to see the path we've come from. It illuminates the present, allowing us to examine the present. It illuminates the future even more, prompting us to consider: What kind of light will our generation ignite? And what kind of spirit will we pass on to the world eighty years from now? So, open it. On a quiet night, immerse yourself in this journey spanning eighty years. You will find that by the end, you've not just closed a book. You've opened a possibility—about how ordinary people become torchbearers, about how individual lives can be integrated into eternal heritage, about how we, today, should respond to those who fought for "today" for us with their lives. The flames of war may fade, but the ever-burning lamp of spirit, once ignited in your heart, will never be extinguished. This, perhaps, is the deepest meaning of reading *From Ordinary to Legend*—to allow us to maintain the warmth of guardians in times of peace; to allow us to still hear the call of legends in our ordinary lives. --- "From Ordinary to Legendary" - A spiritual journey spanning eighty years, a dialogue between the souls of ordinary people and heroes, a life experience that redefines "worth it" is waiting to meet you here.
