(Minghui.org) Before the 2021 Chinese New Year, many overseas Falun Gong practitioners made phone calls to people in China. They are taking this opportunity to extend their New Year’s greetings to their fellow Chinese and also clarify the facts about Falun Gong to them. Many who received the calls were very receptive and thanked the practitioners.

Below is a phone conversation between a practitioner and a police officer in northeastern China. The police officer said happily, “I know the truth about Falun Gong very well, and I believe you will be able to return to our country soon. Remember my phone number, and I will welcome you warmly then!”

When policeman Wang received the call, he said, “You don't need to tell me too much. I know the truth about Falun Gong very well. Let me ask you first: What does ‘picking quarrels and provoking trouble’ mean?”

Before the practitioner could reply, he answered, “Let me tell you that two types of people would be charged with the crime of ‘picking quarrels and provoking trouble’ in China. One is those is people who’ve been bullied, whose home was demolished without compensation, or who was wronged and wants to appeal; the other is those who would have been labeled ‘counter-revolutionary’ in the past but are now called ‘picking quarrels and provoking trouble.’”

Practitioner: “Aren't both concerning good people charged with a crime and not able to seek justice?”

Wang: “Think about it, what kind of people will be attacked by the devil?”

Practitioner: “Yes, all good people are suppressed. Since the establishment of the CCP government in 1949, 80 million people have been persecuted to death.”

Wang: “Do you know what the crime of being a counter-revolutionary is?”

Practitioner: “Of course, my father was born in 1947, and he went through every campaign there was! He even lived through the Great Famine. Did you ever read the book Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party?”

Wang: “I have the book and I gave many copies to others.”

Practitioner: “You are such a righteous and thoughtful person.”

Wang: “There are many police officers like me who help Falun Gong practitioners in our local area. Let me tell you, even though I don’t practice Falun Gong, I’ve helped you a lot. You’re a stabilizing force in society, so I don't understand why the government decided to suppress you.”

Practitioner: “There is only one reason–there are so many people practicing Falun Gong. When Jiang Zemin (former head of the Chinese Communist Party) found there were more practitioners than Party members, out of selfishness and jealousy, he fabricated those rumors and demonized Falun Gong.”

Wang: “This is the mindset of [Jiang’s group]. They’re not afraid of heaven and earth, but they are afraid of people holding together. I have several friends who practice Falun Gong, and I helped them when they were arrested.”

Practitioner: “You will be blessed. When Falun Gong suffers, those who extend a helping hand will definitely be blessed.”

Wang: “I am not the only one who helps Falun Gong. There are twenty thousand police officers here in my city. I know very well that many of them think the way I do.”

Practitioner: “I think you’re amazing.”

Wang: “I quit the Communist Party a long time ago. I’ve also helped many do the same. I have a few friends who are Falun Gong practitioners in Taiwan. I also have a Falun Gong practitioner friend on WeChat and QQ.” “I cannot access overseas websites because my supervisors have been constantly checking my phone, and they’ve come to my house to check my computer. I've been invited over for ‘tea’ and reprimanded a dozen times, so I can say that I know this thing better than you do.”

Practitioner: “You truly are outstanding for sticking up for justice.”

Wang: “I believe you'll have the opportunity to return to China soon, and I hope you'll come to our area for a visit. I never change my phone number, and I've been using it for over a dozen years. Contact me when you come home.”

Practitioner: “Great, but I won't take up more of your time. Remember to sincerely say, ‘Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.’ Even if you don’t practice, the power of Dafa will protect you. It’s absolutely true.”

Wang: “I’ll take your words for it. Thank you. Let’s meet in the future. Goodbye! Take care!”
