5月13日地震抢救现场上午直播群里的一个记者在地震抢救现场给我们上午做的直播 QQ instant messenger relay from netizen 绮梦, meaning Pleasant Dream, in the accompaniment of the entourage of Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao on the morning of May 13:

10:20:47 | 啊 总理摔到了, The Premier just tripped and fell down

10:21:35 | 照片我正在传给北京,不经过审核的是不允许发布的 I am transmitting the photo to Beijing. But it can’t be distributed until it has been approved

10:22:21 | 我和几个同行现在开了9台电脑,同时在传消息 I and several colleaglues are running nine computers to send information out

10:22:37 | 这个QQ在关键时候传的真慢 This QQ thing is really slow in the most critical moments

10:28:33 | 拖出来了,医生在抢救 The student has been pulled out and the doctors are providing treatment

10:28:56 | 部队上来的人还不是很多 Not a lot of army soldiers have arrived

10:29:07 | 交通太困难 Transportation is too hard

10:29:42 | 现在还不一定,这个看样子看活着,吊瓶氧气都挂上了 It is still uncertain but this one appears to be alive. They are using IV drips and oxygen

10:31:06 | 啊,又塌了 Oh, another collapse

10:31:28 | 突击队一个人被埋进去了 A member of the special forces has been buried

10:32:40 | 等等,我到前面看看 Wait, let me move up and take a look

10:37:16 | 最新消息,彭州被困的10万群众危险!!! Latest news: the 100,000 trapped in Pengzhou are in danger!!!

10:38:49 | 由于大雨的影响,工程兵几次架桥失败,附近已经出现泥石流迹象,电话直接是叫通总理的,情况很危险!!! Due to the heavy rains, the engineers have failed several times to erect a new bridge. There are signs of mudslides in the surrounding area. The telephone call was put through directly to the Premier. The situation is very dangerous!!!

11:34:40 | 最新消息,汶川的映秀、漩口、卧龙三镇通讯信号很弱,至今也无法联系。估计三镇有将近两万多人被困,余震不断,大雨连绵,情况非常严峻,由于能见度太差,无法判断准确情况。总参命令,当空降部队到达汶川上空时,如果条件不允许,就不惜代价强行伞降! Latest news, the signals from Yingxiu, Xuankou and Wolong towns are very weak, and no communication has been made so far. It is estimated that almost 20,000 people are trapped in those three towns. The aftershocks are continuing. The situation is very grim. Since visibility is too poor, it is difficult to assess the situation. The Command Headquarters has issued the order to the paratroopers that even if the conditions do not permit, they will parachute down no matter what the price is!
