China abductions: Parents find son snatched in hotel 32 years ago

中国一对父母寻回32年前在酒店被拐的儿子

A Chinese couple whose son was abducted in a hotel in 1988 have been reunited with him after 32 years.

1988年，一对中国夫妇的儿子在一家酒店被拐走，32年后，这对夫妇终于与儿子团聚。

Mao Yin was snatched aged two, while his father stopped to get him some water on the way home from nursery.

毛寅在两岁时被拐走，当时在从托儿所回家的路上，他的父亲停下来给他接点水喝。

His parents searched the country for him and his mother distributed more than 100,000 flyers.

父母在全国各地寻找，母亲发了超过10万份传单。

The family were reunited at a police news conference on Monday, and the son - now aged 34 - said he planned to spend time with his parents.

周一，这家人在警方的新闻发布会上重聚，现年34岁的儿子表示，他计划陪伴父母。

"I would like to thank the tens of thousands of people who helped us," said Li Jingzhi, the boy's mother.

男孩的母亲李静芝说：“我要感谢成千上万个帮助过我们的人。”

What happened to Mao Yin?

毛寅经历了什么？

He was born on 23 February, 1986. In an interview with the South China Morning Post in January - before he was found - his mother called him a "very clever, cute, and healthy" baby.

他出生于1986年2月23日。在被寻回之前，他的母亲在一月份接受《南华早报》的采访时表示，他是一个“非常聪明、可爱、健康”的宝宝。

On 17 October 1988, his father, Mao Zhenjing, was bringing him home from nursery in the city of Xian in Shaanxi province.

1988年10月17日，他的父亲毛振华正把他从托儿所接回家。

The boy asked for a drink of water, so they stopped in the entrance of a hotel. As the father cooled down some hot water, he looked away briefly, and the boy was taken.

在路上，毛寅想喝水，他们在一家酒店的门口停了下来。他的父亲把热水吹凉后，向别处看了看，就在这时男孩被带走了。

The family searched in and around Xian, putting up posters. At one point, they thought they had found him, but it was a false dawn.

家人在西安市内及周边搜寻，张贴海报。曾经他们一度以为要找到了，却是空喜一场。

Mrs Li quit her job to search for her son - handing out some 100,000 flyers in more than 10 provinces and municipalities - without success.

为了寻回儿子，李静芝辞去了工作。她在10多个省市发放了大约10万份传单，都没结果。

Over the years she appeared on numerous Chinese television shows to appeal for help, including The X Factor. She followed 300 leads, the SCMP said, but no match was found.

多年来，她在许多电视节目中求助，包括《X音素》。《南华早报》称，她追踪了300条线索，但没有找到儿子。

In 2007, Mrs Li started volunteering with a group called "Baby Come Back Home", to help other parents look for their missing children.

2007年，李静芝开始在一个名为“宝贝回家”的组织做志愿者，帮助其他父母寻找失踪的孩子。

According to state media, she helped reunite 29 children with their families, while her own son was still missing. She intends to keep working with the group.

据官方媒体报道，她帮助29名儿童与家人团聚，而她自己的儿子仍下落不明。她打算继续在该组织工作。

How was Mao Yin found?

毛寅是如何被寻回的？

In April, state media said, police received a tip about a man from Sichuan Province in south-west China - about 1,000km (620 miles) from Xian - who had adopted a baby years earlier.

据媒体报道，今年4月，警方获得线索，得知四川省（距离西安约1000公里）一名男子在早年收养了一名婴儿。

Police found the adoptee, now a 34-year-old man, and a DNA test was carried out to see if he was related to Mao Zhenjing and Li Jingzhi. It came back positive.

警方找到了被收养的孩子，现在是一名34岁的男子，并进行了DNA检测，以确定他是否与毛振华和李静芝有血缘关系。结果是肯定的。

Mao Yin - who had been renamed Gu Ningning - now runs a home decoration business. He said he was "not sure" about the future, but would spend time with his parents.

毛寅(原名顾宁宁)目前经营一家家装公司。他说对未来的安排还“不确定”，但会花时间陪伴父母。

Police said he had been sold as a boy to a childless couple for 6,000 yuan (£690, $840 in today's money).

警方表示，他被卖给一对没有孩子的夫妇，价格是6000元人民币(相当于现在的690英镑，840美元)。

Mrs Li was told the good news on 10 May - Mother's Day in China. "This is the best gift I have ever got," she said.

李静芝在5月10日——母亲节——得知了这个好消息。“这是我收到的最好的礼物，”她说。

The investigation into the 1988 disappearance is still ongoing. The authorities have not released information about the couple who raised Mao Yin.

对1988年这起失踪事件的调查仍在进行中。有关部门还没有公布毛寅养父母的信息。

Paul Houston

With so many females in China being given up for adoption why can't those childless couples adopt those children? It's odd that a society doesn't value girls.

中国有这么多的女婴被遗弃，为什么那些没有孩子的夫妇就不能领养呢?

重男轻女的社会，太奇怪了。

Arthur

That’s like finding a needle in a haystack. Over 1.4 billion people.

在14亿人中寻找，这就像大海捞针一样。

They should punish the couple who raised the baby even though they didn't do harm to him. This is to deter people from buying traffic babies.

应该惩罚抚养这个孩子的夫妇，即使他们没有伤害孩子。这样以后就没人会买被拐儿童了。

james

So handing out flyers really works.

所以说，发传单真的管用
