At 11:42 a.m. on May 4, on the platform of Wenzhou South Station in Zhejiang Province, the train was about to pull in. Yang Tingshun and Shangguan Xuejuan found some confusion nearby, and they immediately went to check.

Suddenly, a rapid cry exploded in the crowd: "Someone fainted!"

Yang Tingshun quickly adjusted the old man's position and resolutely implemented cardiopulmonary resuscitation, while Shangguan Xuejuan closely monitored his signs. At the same time, the emergency equipment and defibrillators at the bullet train station were put in place quickly, and the staff contacted the 120 emergency center to ensure the seamless connection of rescue.

Yang Tingshun sighed, "In the face of an emergency, we instinctively used our professional knowledge and tried our best to save every life."
