On November 8th, an 80-year-old man suddenly collapsed in front of the Construction Bank in Xinyuan Modern City due to health issues. ZZRVTC's international students from Tajikistan, Nazarzoda Mehrbakhsh (Chinese name: Maiha) and Zokirov Muhammadjon (Chinese name: Zhong Yong), happened to be passing by. After realizing the emergency, they rushed to the old man without hesitation and started to give him emergency aid. The unconscious old man was experiencing cardiac arrest, presenting a critical condition. The students immediately administered CPR and called for an ambulance. Through their swift and coordinated efforts, the old man regained consciousness, and his vital signs stabilized. Upon the ambulance's arrival, the students assisted in moving the elderly man into the ambulance, quietly departing once they learned he was out of danger.
