Ji Feng's Biography: Born in the 1960s. Native of Loushanguan Town, Tongzi County, Guizhou. 1989 student movement leader, independent thinker, poet, senior planner, private corporate consultant. A student of the class of 1986 of the Chinese Department of Guizhou University, he served as the president of the Guizhou University "Autonomous Students Federation" during the 1989 student movement, for which he was imprisoned for over two years. Since then, he has been closely monitored and suppressed by the CCP authorities. From 1992 to the present, he spent ten years in Shenzhen and over twenty years in Beijing. During this period, he worked as a professional manager in foreign, state-owned, and private enterprises, holding almost all levels of job positions from salesman to department manager and general manager. He started his own company, operated projects, ran a cultural studio, worked as an independent planner, etc., all of which later failed due to man-made disasters that followed him like a shadow. His career scope spans twenty to thirty industries.
Ji Feng described himself on Twitter: "A contemporary state prisoner, a leader of the June 4th, 1989 student movement, a thinker in the dark, a contemplator, a poet, a lonely night walker walking hesitantly. For over thirty years, I have lived elsewhere, elsewhere in this country, writing copy with my left hand to make a living, and writing articles with my right hand to cultivate my mind. Having temporarily resided in Shenzhen for ten years, I am not a Shenzhener; having temporarily resided in Beijing for more than twenty years, I am still not a Beijinger. Long-term monitored and restricted from leaving the country, unable to speak out or go abroad, exiled across most of China, moved more than thirty times, and to this day, I still have no fixed place to eat or live."
He has published poetry collections: "True Colors", "Where I Am, Home Is There".
