At around 5:00 a.m. on August 19, 2004, loudspeakers began broadcasting information about Falun Dafa, including the song "Falun Dafa is Great." The broadcasts took place in several locations, including the Chengbei Bus Terminal, Huochai Street, Guang'an Bridge, Cuiping Park, Xijiaoxi area, new Nanmen area and other places. The loudspeakers also publicized Jiang Zemin's crimes, the news that he is being sued overseas, and described Falun Dafa's spread all over the world, with "Pudu" playing as the background music. The "110" (the emergency number in China) police were dumbfounded. They did not dare to take the loudspeakers down and let it play for over an hour. The incident shocked Guang'an City.

After the incident, policemen from Guang'an were assigned to look after the buildings until August 25. On the 100^th anniversary of Deng Xiaoping's birthday, police monitored the practitioners who were not detained, and were paid an extra 20 Yuan per day for the surveillance job. Some practitioners still managed to hang up banners on Nanwansheng Street. Reportedly, four practitioners from outside of Guang'an City were arrested near Deng Xiaoping's former residence for distributing truth-clarifying materials. Details are currently under investigation. Recently, Guang'an residents have been receiving a lot of phone calls clarifying the facts about Falun Gong. This had a great influence on people, and a lot of people came to understand the true situation behind the persecution of Falun Gong.

Dafa practitioner Ms. Yang Maoqiao from the Nujiang Region has been detained in a forced labor camp for two years. In December 2003 she was released from the forced labor camp. However, in August 2004 she was again put into Yunnan Province's Women Forced Labor Camp in the Dabanqiao area of Kunming City. At present, Yang Maoqiao has been on a hunger strike that has already lasted for over 20 days. Her life is currently in danger.

It was reported that on August 31, 2004, practitioner Mr. Wang Shengbiao from Shijiazhuang City was put before the court and sentenced. A fellow practitioner went to the court and was arrested for bringing a tape recorder there.

Dafa practitioner Mr. Qin Yujie was a foreign language teacher at Shijiu High School in the Donggang District. On around July 25, 2004 he was secretly arrested.

The students in his class do not know his whereabouts. In his spare time Mr. Qin tutored students for free. The beloved teacher's arrest had a huge impact on the students.

It was said that the school has fired Mr. Qin. Before his arrest, the principal of the school Zhang Qing had tried all means to slander Falun Dafa. Every morning when holding the national flag raising ceremony, he always made statements to infuse students with bad thoughts about Falun Dafa. He created difficulties for Qin Yujie with all kinds of efforts. This time he took the opportunity and fired teacher Qin.
