The story of Bian Mei.

Since she took off her olive-green police uniform and left her post as a female bodyguard for foreign guests, Bian Mei has never had a dream again and again: in her dream, she was one step late and watched the convoy of state guests pass by like lightning, but she was pulled down and couldn't catch up. When I woke up, I was still sweating all over.

She said that I have tasted anxiety in my dreams, so I always arrive at my post twenty minutes early when I perform my tasks.

July 1988 to February 1994, Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, Beijing, 18 Building. The first ladies of the United States, the former Soviet Union, Russian, Indian, Romanian and other countries, the wives of British and Japanese prime ministers, the princess of Thailand, and the Pakistani female prime minister who stayed here, when they started their day's schedule, the first thing they saw was the beautiful China female guard standing in the lobby. She is slim and has a sweet smile.

Bian Mei was once called the first female bodyguard in China. She left many good memories for foreign guests. It is not only her superb professional quality, but also her arrogance, gentleness and understanding, which is contrary to the "cold face" and "hard faction" of the guards in the past, like a sweet spring water and a fresh breeze.

It is widely rumored internationally that Raisa, the wife of the most difficult former Soviet President mikhail gorbachev, admires Bian Mei. A small detail touched her. According to the schedule, I will visit the Great Wall on this day. Raisa got on the bus and Bian Mei took out two cushions and put them behind her. Therefore, despite the rugged mountain road, the first lady has a backache and is much more comfortable. She was in high spirits when she climbed the Great Wall. Afterwards, she told senior officials accompanying China several times that the guards in your were very human. After Raisa returned to China, Bian Mei received her photo soon. In the photo, she is holding Bian Mei's hand, and a line of crooked pen words is her autograph.

Barbara likes Bian Mei, too. The wife of former US President George W. Bush is like a kind old mother. When she lived in 18 building, she came down from the second floor every day instead of taking the elevator and taking the stairs. Bian Mei, who was waiting downstairs, stared at her legs out of professional habit, ready to rush up to hold her in case of an accident. When Barbara saw Bian Mei nervous, she played a joke on her on purpose. She cocked her foot, and Bian Mei's eyes widened. Barbara immediately comforted her and said, "I'm sorry, you will win." (I promise nothing will happen)

Bian Mei is1.68m tall. Slim and elegant. That slim appearance makes it hard to imagine that she has a good kung fu. She likes martial arts since she was a child, and she has played Chaquan and Changquan, which are crisp and neat. Dance short and stab the sword, combine rigidity with softness, and the blade is sharp. 1988 graduated from China police officer university, majoring in security. I practice boxing, judo, shooting and driving hard at school. She was one of the first guards in the Ministry of Public Security to receive a bachelor's degree in law. Familiar with criminal law, civil law and international law. At that time, her graduation thesis was about international law, entitled "Nansha Islands have been the territory of China since ancient times".

On one occasion, she served as the personal guard of the Italian Prime Minister's wife. A reporter with a camera doesn't know much about foreign affairs rules, so he jostles around his wife to grab the camera. Bian Mei reminded him for the first time: "Please forgive me." That man turned a deaf ear. Bian Mei reminded him for the second time: "Please pay attention, please make way." The man obviously ignored the slim girl in casual clothes. When he squeezed in for the third time, Bian Mei was rude, raised his arm and took a sip: "Get out." I saw the seven-foot man pushed back several times, at least he could stand still. Ah, what kind of kung fu is this? Bian Mei smiled wittily: "This is called four pounds."

A small 77 pistol, Bian Mei never leaves his body. Put it under the pillow when you sleep and take it out quickly. When necessary, she will also wear a bulletproof vest. When Indian Prime Minister rajiv gandhi visited China, Sikhs threatened to assassinate him, and the situation was once tense. China police have received three lists of suspects who must be stopped from entering the country. The photos of them have been copied many times, and they all have beards, so the differences in appearance are almost indistinguishable. Beijing in 65438+February is the coldest season of the year. In the north wind outside the Great Wall, Indian guests boarded the Great Wall, and the top of the mountain was even colder. Bian Mei is Mrs. rajiv gandhi's Sonia's personal guard. She can't wear anything to keep out the cold. She can only wear a bulletproof vest and a fur coat. A big scarf around her neck added a touch of warmth to her trembling body. I saw that she never left Sonia's back and forth. Her beautiful eyes were heroic and her eyes swept away, giving a panoramic view of everything around her.

Qi, director of the China Reception Committee and Minister of Metallurgy, asked curiously, "You covered your chest and back, but the most important head was exposed. What should I do? "

Bian Mei replied, "This bulletproof vest is not for myself. When I protect foreign guests, I have this layer of bulletproof vest to prevent bullets from passing through me and hurting foreign guests. "

Bian Mei has a good impression on the handsome former Indian Prime Minister, who prefers his Italian wife. She said, "Sonia doesn't like to show off. She is a typical wife and mother. I found that her only wish was to spend more time with her husband. When I climbed the Great Wall, she was thin and breathless. I was very distressed at the time. " After a long time, Bian Mei heard the news of rajiv gandhi's assassination, and he was on the bus. A passenger's transistor radio plays the news of the day. She cried out unexpectedly. Later, it was said that Sonia would run for the post of Prime Minister. Bian Mei positively predicted that she would never go into politics. Because Bian Mei can't forget that Sonia talked with her many times during the Indian Prime Minister's visit to China, recalling the stable and warm life of their family before Rajiv entered politics.

As a private guard, Bian Mei may have some warmth and kindness that this profession does not need. But because of this, she communicated with foreign guests quickly and sometimes reached a tacit understanding. Of course, her English level is not low, which also plays a great role in communication between the two sides. Bian Mei said, "When foreign guests get to know you, they will tell you some activities, such as' I want to take a walk at night'. If she bothers you and doesn't want you hanging around in front of her without telling you, our work will be very passive. " According to the regulations of the guards, foreign guests, even couples, should follow Bian Mei when walking in Diaoyutai State Guesthouse.

Foreign colleagues also look at Bian Mei with new eyes. They admire China's female bodyguards for their shrewdness, quickness and quickness of eyes. Bian Mei's charming and lively temperament made them shine at the moment. American bodyguards are big and handsome. They enthusiastically helped Bian Mei practice her English. Therefore, Bian Mei learned many terms about safety, and even China translators had to ask Bian Mei for advice when they came across terms such as bulletproof cars. The bodyguards of the former Soviet Union are also handsome, and they are all very handsome. When Bian Mei opened the door for their first lady, they stepped forward and politely opened the door for Bian Mei. Thai guards once saw Bian Mei dancing disco in a disco during a break, which was so handsome. They ran to tell Princess Sirindhorn in surprise: "Mei can dance, Mei can dance."

Princess Sirindhorn and Bian Mei became good friends. 1989 In April, the Princess of Thailand knew Bian Mei from the moment she stepped off the spiral staircase of the plane and set foot on the land of China. During the 15 days of her visit to China, Bian Mei could not live without her, whether in Beijing, Gansu or Xinjiang. Sirindhorn can speak English and a little Chinese, so they talk in two languages. At Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Spring in Dunhuang, Gansu, the princess rode a camel, followed by Bian Mei riding a second camel. The camel bell rang and staggered for a long time. Bian Mei saw the princess stop moving. Before the camel she rode knelt down, she jumped off the high hump and ran to hold the princess. Sirindhorn was very moved, and the Thai guards gave a thumbs-up sign. Bian Mei shallow a smile. This kind of jumping is nothing to her. I thought I did exercises every morning when I was studying at the police officer's university. Her major was an hour earlier than other majors, and one day the door of the girls' dormitory was still unlocked. The coach told her to jump off the second floor. Without saying anything, she jumped down, much higher than the hump.

There is no plane from Dungu to Urumqi. The Thai princess and her party took the train. Along the way, the Gobi Desert was gray and wild. After nightfall, the sky is clear and the stars are shining. Bian Mei likes watching stars since he was a child. She can recognize many constellations. Bian Mei couldn't sleep on the train and looked at the stars outside the window all night. In the morning, Princess Sirindhorn asked her, "I heard that you found a star last night", which means missing your lover in English.

At that time, Bian Mei had no sweetheart. Just because she is still single at the age of 28, an opportunity appeared dramatically in front of her. 1993 Beijing's selection of "Miss Beijing" is a large-scale beauty contest sponsored by Beijing Women's Federation and Beijing Youth Federation. One of the conditions for running for election is unmarried. Bian Mei signed up at the instigation of colleagues and friends. She went in a police uniform. A little green in all the red flowers. So from the beginning of the competition, Bian Mei stood out from all the beautiful women with a spirit of professional women's independence.

Bian Mei has passed five hurdles in a row, including the preliminaries, the preliminary evaluation rematch, the re-evaluation rematch, the semi-finals and the finals. The contents of the competition include casual wear, swimsuit, evening dress display, special performance, quiz and so on. There are 88 beautiful women in the semi-final and 30 in the semi-final. In the end, 10 beautiful women competed for the top three and seven individual awards. The game lasted more than three months. Bian Mei didn't care about the result until later, he just wanted to get things done. She said, "I never think my face looks good, but if I add my figure and grace, I think my comprehensive index is ok." No matter which round of competition, Bian Mei's manners and speech are decent, natural and relaxed. He doesn't care about cameras or microphones. His natural and graceful temperament has a certain charm. This is obviously a woman who has seen the world.

"26" is of special significance to Bian Mei. Because after entering the semi-finals, her number is this lucky number. Since then, 30 miss candidates have started closed training, mainly training queues, dance steps and dances. Bian Mei became the monitor of this beautiful class. Why did you choose her? Organizers found that after the dance rehearsal, others were scattered like birds and beasts, but Bian Mei stayed behind, quickly packed up the dance props, scarves and fans scattered all over the floor, and cleaned up the beverage bottles thrown on the ground. Before the final, he went to the theater and took the stage. Even when he officially took the stage, Bian Mei was very popular. She has a job in her eyes, is enthusiastic about serving others and actively cooperates with others. The backstage staff shouted: "No.26, we choose you."

"Maybe you are too ordinary to let a butterfly lose its soul; Maybe you are too ordinary to be a flash in the pan; But you stand silently, with no regrets; Decorate Jinghua, month after month. " This is a short poem that Bian Mei improvised in the test. She said, "I was asked to finish it in five minutes, and I felt a bit like Cao Zijian's seven-step poem. Then let's call this seven-step poem. " Poetry expresses ambition, poetry expresses emotion. Bian Mei's improvisation reflects her understanding of career and her pursuit of life.

The final result was announced: Bian Mei won the third place on 26th.

In the bustling scene and the bustling spotlight, Bian Mei quickly turned over a brilliant page in his life. A few days later, she cut a particularly short hairstyle, shook her head and said naughtily, "Miss Beijing, I am a Beijing boy." She returned to her post. Until the end of 1994, the last foreign guest on her guard mission was Russian President Yeltsin. As an attache of the Japanese government delegation in China, she also served as the personal bodyguard of the head of the delegation, Mrs. Rong Yiren.

Although Bian Mei did not take Miss Beijing's election seriously, her family, father, mother and three sisters felt great comfort. They are proud of Bian Mei. Especially her father, Bian Mei, is his beloved "old pimple" (northerners' nickname for the youngest child). On the day of the final, he was away on business, so he couldn't see his daughter in person. However, when Bian Mei came home, she saw a big bouquet of red flowers in the vase on the table as soon as she entered the door, which was collected by her father from the mountains outside the country.

A woman inherits her father's business. Bian Mei's father is an old policeman. He worked as a bodyguard for a senior leading cadre for many years. During the Cultural Revolution, he was implicated and sent to other places. After the Cultural Revolution, he returned to work in Beijing. He never used his old relationship for his daughter, even without thinking about it. Bian Mei never talked about his father. It was not until she did well in this circle and became famous that the old comrades knew: "So you are the daughter of the old side."

Bian Mei is a veritable "old pimple" at home. The youngest sister is also older than her 10 years old. Father often looks at his "old pimple" proudly. What do you think: "Xiaomei looks like me." Mother pursed her lips: "If you like you, you will be in trouble." Bian Mei is very objective: "Mom has a high nose and deep eyes, and I was averaged by my father."

1996 late spring. My father was diagnosed with advanced bone metastasis of lung cancer, which was like a bolt from the blue for the whole family. He spent the last five months on his deathbed, and his family never told him the truth about his illness. Bian Mei tried to put on a smile every time he went to see his father. Father likes the sweet smile of his little daughter best. Eventually he fell asleep, but as soon as Bian Mei arrived, he would wake up and open his eyes. Finally, one day, Bian Mei couldn't control herself in the face of her scrawny father, leaving tears. Father touched her hair and cheeks and murmured, "Xiaomei, I'm fine." This is the last sentence he said to his daughter.

"It turns out that I don't think there is any difficulty and helplessness in life. Everything can be overcome, but your efforts are enough. Now I understand that it is really helpless to watch the person you love leave you step by step. Bian Mei arranged the last farewell ceremony for his father with flowers. On the wreath given by his mother to his father, Bian Mei gave full play to his ability to write poems and wrote an elegy for his mother: "I am honest and honest, but fortunately I am accompanied by three students and have no complaints in the four seasons. When four poems came out, my mother burst into tears.

Bian Mei has been in the sea for two years. She used to be the vice president of Wynn Real Estate Trading Center, in charge of advertising business. I am learning English now. After school, she reads books and learns computers. In order to keep healthy, she does aerobic exercise twice a week. Besides, accompanying her mother is an important part of her life. She's not married yet. She described herself humorously: "I am very passive in this respect." I would rather let go of a thousand than pursue one actively. "

She is used to ordinary life. Sometimes I think of the scenery when I was the first female bodyguard in China. There is only one regret: she will never wear a police uniform again. She will never forget the olive green.
