张云泉,1948年6月出生在江苏省如东县的一个渔民之家。当时的中国千疮百孔,他同样面对缺衣少食的生活现实,从小吃尽了生活之苦。四五岁的时候,他就跟随大人在海边的沙滩里拣海贝了,10岁不到就跟父母下海捕鱼、岸上种田,干的是苦力活,住的是茅草房。 Zhang Yunquan was born in June 1948 in Rudong, Jiangsu Province, a fisherman’s house. At that time, China was riddled with numerous holes. He also faced the realities of living under the influence of clothing and eating less and did all his life from scratch. At the age of four or five, he followed adults on the sandy beach by the sea and picked seashells. When he was 10 years old, his parents had gone fishing and farming on the shore.
