Celebrity inspirational short story 1
In August 2008, the American girl Tamika? Calkins and her teammates won the Beijing Olympic Games women's basketball tournament. Before that, Calkins had already participated in many grand tournaments. "Without my father's teachings," said Catchings, "I would not have been on any of the playing fields."
Calkins was born hearing impaired, and when she was three years old, her parents had her fitted with a large, bulky hearing aid. She hated the hearing aids, especially when she started elementary school, and she hated the teasing from her classmates. Once, a teacher asked her, "What does 4 plus 2 equal?" Calkins nervously answered, "6 ......6," and her classmates burst into laughter, her face turning red and tears welling up in her eyes. "I won't say another word in class," she told herself.
One day in second grade, Calkins's mother and ear doctor called her outside the classroom, where she was in the middle of a lesson. At that moment, Calkins felt the eyes of the class on her, and the boy sitting next to her was "giggling." "Why can't I be like everyone else?" Calkins questioned in her mind.
That afternoon on the way home from school, as Calkins and her sister, Dorcas, passed through a field, she violently ripped off her hearing aid and threw it away. The sister stared angrily at Kaykins, "Why did you do that? ""I don't know. "Keikins shrugged." Dad and mom will go crazy. "I don't know," said his sister. Caikyns got a little scared too.
Back home, Catchings' mother was really angry. Her mother ordered Catchings to follow her back into the wilderness to retrieve the hearing aid, but she couldn't find it until dark. That night, Catchings' father solemnly told her, "You have made a choice, and you will have to live with that choice from now on. "Catchings didn't understand what her father meant." You don't want to wear your hearing aid, and from now on you won't have to wear it. You have to take care of your life without it. "I'm sorry," said her father. Letting her take control of her life was the choice her father made in response to Kaykins' behavior.
Throwing away her hearing aid, Kaykins realized she turned out to be very good at lip-reading. Without the harsh hearing aids, the other kids stopped teasing her. Then Calkins fell in love with basketball. In high school, her basketball skills surpassed those of most of her classmates, "When you make an accurate 3-pointer in a game, no one cares if your hearing is good or bad. " laughs Calkins.
For years, Calkins prayed to be liked. As she ran around the basketball court, she realized she had gotten much more than she had prayed for. "It's a result of you taking control of your own life," her father said. "That result puts Calkins well on her way to making the U.S. women's basketball team that will compete in the London Olympics." At the London Olympics, I will show my best performance. After the game back to the United States, I will bring my experience and feelings to those children with hearing impairment like me. "Keggins told reporters.
"Will you encourage them to throw away their hearing aids? " the reporter asked with a laugh. Caikins laughed and said, "Of course not, I would tell them that everyone is special, as long as they take hold of themselves, they will be equally favored by God, and good things will happen. "

This try, she went to the Beijing Foreign Language Institute, became a student of the English Department of the workers and peasants. However, it was too late to rejoice, the gloom and doom enveloped the heart. In the class, she actually has two "most": one is the oldest - the old girl; one is the worst performance - the foundation is too weak.
One day in class, the teacher asked a very simple question, the first time did not understand, the second time to understand but do not know how to answer, so, stiff in the classroom. After class, she ran to the hillside in the backyard in one breath and cried.
"What's the big deal, it's not just worse than others, I try hard not to?" Finally figuring it out, she made a promise to herself, "I'm going to be the best student I can be!" She worked hard, studying late every night and lifting the covers at 4 or 5 am. No matter how hot or cold it was, she could often be found under the big tree at the corner of the campus.
In a flash, four years passed. That generation is completely different from today's, because there is no choice of career autonomy, from the English Department out of her, was assigned to the British Embassy to do wiring student. The job was monotonous, boring, and a pain in the ass. In the eyes of outsiders, it was still a very unproductive job. At first, she was able to do it honestly, but as time went by, her heart became more and more depressed, more and more unbalanced - how can a top student of a foreign college be so stifled? Finally, in a meeting with her mother, she spilled her guts.
The kind mother did not say anything, but told her to wash the bathroom, brush the toilet, she was unhappy to comply with the order. However, she vigorously sweeping the floor, laboriously brushing the toilet, repeated several times, and still felt very unclean. She couldn't help complaining, "I can't help it, it's just like this!" Instead of saying anything, her mother got a bowl of dry ashes, then sprinkled the dry ashes on the dirty and wet places, let the dry ashes soak up the water, and then swept again, and the result was really much better. Not long after, the yellow dirt in the toilet bowl is all gone, as if doing a whitening mask.
What she didn't do, her mother did. She could not help but praise her mother, but her mother told her: "a thing, you can not do; if you do, you have to use your brain to do a good job, you have to go all out. You can't pick your job, but you can have your choice ah, that is to do the job well." Standing aside, she listened to her mother's words, long speechless.
After returning to the unit, she seemed to be a different person. She memorized the names, phone numbers, scope of work, and even the names of their families of everyone in the embassy.

Grassroots Little People Achieve Big Wonders in Life
If "Emperor Penguin Diary" is an epic poem about birds, and "Migratory Birds" is a hymn about flying, then "Heavenly Providence" is the novel "Alive" in the world of birds.
In the fourth Cologne Film Festival in Germany, China's first bird as the "actor" of the film "Heavenly", won the "most popular film" award, became the most dazzling a dark horse, its production team also became the award ceremony on the most eye-catching focus. Its production team also became the center of attention at the award ceremony. However, no one believed that this film, which participated in international film festivals and eventually won the Grand Prize, came from the hands of three young people who did not specialize in film.
The Gift of Heaven is a touching story about a lonely little black-tailed gull's struggle with destiny. This feature film about the growth experience of a seagull is beautiful, twisted and shocking. Mr. Volker Novak, the internationally renowned documentary master and jury member of Cologne Film Festival, gave a very high appraisal to "Heaven's Gift": "The creation of a feature film is completed by the way of documentary filming, which is a contribution to the film. Providence is the best movie of the festival!"
Yes! This best movie is done by them, they are known by their friends as the tripod group, little-known people, the average age of only 36 years old, but created a miracle in the history of Chinese cinema. However, behind the movie their dedication is huge, the whole seven years, the three people in the life of the oldest and strongest seven years are given to the story of the protagonist "Tian Chi", familiar with their people say they are "crazy". But in their hearts this is not crazy, is obsessive, is persistent, because they were "Tian Chi" impressed, from the shell, to the loss of his father, brother, mother ...... a lone bird, in the sea donkey island of the huge waves and rolling thunder in the trembling growth. Survival is cruel, life is fragile, life is tenacious, life is still beautiful ...... This is almost a reproduction of the courage and strength of life.
Once their ideas were very simple, since childhood like bird director Sun Xian, whenever from the TV after watching foreigners shooting "Animal World", he always have a little doubt: China's "Animal World" where? Finally they found a sea donkey island more than 60 kilometers away from Weihai City, the island is only a few nautical miles from the land, about 20 minutes by boat, the island around the food is sufficient, is a very good breeding ground for seabirds. Every spring and summer, nearly 10,000 seagulls and egrets gather here, which can be said to be the location of China's Animal World. It was then that Sun Xian was inspired to make a documentary on purely wild birds.On May 2, 2002, Sun Xian was in this "wild bird-free" area. Sun Xian in this "no food", "no water", "no electricity" of the "three no" island with like-minded two friends! He began the hard work of filming and creating, but what he didn't expect was that the filming time was getting longer and longer. The plan is also from making a documentary into a bird movie: I did not expect the shooting process is so thrilling: I did not expect the film is so successful ......
Sun Xian graduated from high school and joined the workforce two years later, admitted to the Qufu Normal University to study a few years of oil painting: Wang Jiantao as a farmer, driver, repairman. Later, he went to Jinan Radio and Television College to study photography for two years. After graduating from high school, Yu Hui apprenticed directly with Sun Xian as an artisan. All three are not from the film school, but as a cinema staff, the experience of showing films for many years, thousands of films seen is the only and the best source of nutrition.
Shooting a movie about a bird, the bird is not a competent actor and never listens to the director. The bird's story must be carefully observed and expressed in the language of the camera. This kind of film shot in the original ecology, the shooting difficulty is unimaginable. A shot of a few seconds in the movie sometimes requires three cameras to shoot for half a month. The whole movie was edited in 80 minutes, but it took more than 400 hours and seven years of shooting time.
The filming was difficult, but even more difficult was the shortage of funds. The initial start-up capital was their own savings. The three have invested more than 300 million yuan, the most difficult time even a hot meal can not eat. 2004 winter, the shooting almost made three people into a desperate situation. At this time the three "grassroots" filmmakers, shooting hundreds of hours of material, but how to become a work? They were at a loss.
After looking at their material, film playwright Yuan Xueqiang suggested making a movie about birds. To come up with a movie is only the first step, scriptwriting, doing editing, dubbing, music, production and distribution, each of which is an insurmountable mountain for Sun Xian and his team. After repeatedly hitting the wall, Sun Xian, who has never studied film production, became a director for the first time in his life, and his companions while groping for production, up to more than 400 hours of material every day over and over again to see, according to the material, the script has a small black-tailed gull's growth path gradually taking shape. The movie was eventually named "Heavenly Gift", some people said that the name "Heavenly Gift" is too ordinary, but Sun Xian eventually did not change. Because during the filming process. We had several brushes with death, and this kind of luck is God's gift: the black-tailed gulls are also God's gift: as well as those who have helped them, all of these are God's gift. So the name "Heaven's Gift" best conveys the theme he is trying to express.
On January 24, 2008, the film received an award from the National Film Administration (NFA).
So far, Sun Xian, who is considered by his friends to be "crazy", has been realizing his dream step by step with his film crew. 7 years of grueling filming were not all difficulties and bitterness. Seven years of grueling filming is not all hardship and bitterness, but a long period of filming has gradually brought them into the life of the birds. Those touching images shook their hearts and brought them immense joy! Inspired by the tenacious life of the birds, all the irritation was gone at once. Finally evacuated from the island when Yu Hui said to Sun Xian: "In the next life if you still want to shoot birds, then I will be a bird, how you want to shoot me how to fly ......"
The news of the film's award reached the country, so that many people who do not look favorably on the film were very After all, this is a story that is a bit far from the hot topics of society. The three people who made "Heaven's Gift" are by no means artists or scientists, they are just a group of ordinary people, a few cinema artists. But they did it. Perhaps the more we see from ordinary people, the more we can feel the power from the heart, especially after it was awakened by the black-tailed gulls on Sea Donkey Island.
On the original intention of filming, Sun Xian said: "In fact, the reason is very simple, it is from the simple love of birds. Seven years of zero distance into the world of black-tailed gulls, so that we find a living creature should be respected and the fear of nature should be. Life is equal, life has dignity, even a blade of grass should be respected, I just want to tell a story about the growth of life, and tell the stories I see in the world of birds to more people."
On January 21, 2011, "Tin Chi" was released nationwide. The strong little Tian Chi touched the hearts of too many people.
With a dream of flying, against the difficulties that ordinary people can not imagine, with more than ordinary perseverance. Seven years of grinding a sword, a life-warming movie was finally born in the hands of three little people, creating a miracle in the history of cinema, and their stories, like "Heavenly Providence", are equally touching, admirable, enviable, and more respectable. As long as you insist, the little people will also achieve a big miracle in life.

Xiao Huangqi: You are my eyes
Xiao Huangqi was born with congenital cataracts in 1976, and he came to the world, but did not know what the world looks like, at the age of four, he underwent eye surgery, and began to be able to see the hazy world, such as a normal person! The first time I saw this, I was able to see the world and live like a normal person.
But God seems to like to joke, one afternoon in his first year of high school, he and his classmates in the special basketball court playing basketball, he stood under the basketball hoop to receive the ball passed by his classmates, the shot did not go in, he jumped up to grab the rebound, but he found that the original very large basketball has become a small black spot, the world has become dim, and he stretched out his hand, but can no longer catch any ball.
From being born with cataracts, to seeing the light, to being totally blind, his life has gone up and down to such an extent that he finds it absurd, and he has always been optimistic that he can't face all this with equanimity.
He was scared, helpless and anxious. Luckily, the teacher at the school for the blind noticed that something was wrong with him, and advised him that as long as he learned how to live, and found the confidence and strength of the invisible, his eyes would be everywhere.
He spent a year settling down, learning everything a blind person should learn, and when he realized that all the tragedies were final, he began to accept his fate, and no matter what kind of emotions he was in, he was always accompanied by a guitar and music that was full of emotions. Teachers and classmates encouraged him to participate in singing competitions, and that very year, he won the first place in the singing competition of the Eighth Golden Tripod Awards for the Disabled, and he suddenly realized that he had caught the eyes of the teacher who said that he was nowhere to be seen.
In 2002, he wrote all the thoughts in his heart in a song called "You Are My Eyes", which made it to the Golden Melody Chart, and jumped to the top of the KTV charts, with no major publicity. The first time I saw him, I was in the middle of a song, and he was in the middle of a song.
In 2010, a song sung by Huang Xiaoxun "not so simple" in the KTV touched many people, but also sang a lot of people cried, and this "not so simple" is Xiao Huangqi for Huang Xiaoxun tailor-made creation.
Xiao Huangqi and Huang Xiaoxun have been friends for many years. Years ago, Xiao Huangqi's father was working on a renovation project for Huang's family, and he introduced his son, who loved to sing but had no place to show his talent, to Huang. After hearing Xiao Huangqi's songs, Huang was so appreciative that she took him to many pub residencies and convinced the owners there to give him job opportunities.
During that time, Xiao Aun would encourage and comfort him, drive him to naturally beautiful landscapes, and make his world gorgeous with her eyes. Of course she appreciated his music creation ability, so she started to ask him for songs from a long time ago. Xiao Huangqi's gratitude to Huang Xiaoxun was naturally beyond words, so he wanted to repay her with a song suitable for Huang Xiaoxun.
"It's not that simple", true to Huang Xiaoxun's mentality and the mood of a woman in her almost 30's, the song swept the Chinese singing world under Huang's interpretation out of her true feelings, sending them to the peak of their careers.
Xiao Huangqi from others do not mind calling him a blind singer-songwriter, his eyes can not see, but the heart is very strong and clear, he is with the ear with the heart to feel the feelings of others. From his childhood, from his family to the society, there are many people who have given him selfless love, and he has turned this gratitude into songs to return to all of them.
Since his debut, Xiao Huangqi has been selected for the Golden Melody Awards year after year for his heartfelt music, and won the Golden Melody Award for "Best Taiwanese Male Vocalist" in 2008 and 2010 respectively.
He is successful, confident and powerful, but his biggest wish is to see his eyes again one day, to travel the world with his favorite friends and family, and to bring my own music to every corner of the world, so that more people can feel the different Xiao Huangqi.

The past is the best guide to the future
One
When he was in first grade, he chased flies around and put them into matchboxes, filled them to the brim, and gave them to the homeroom teacher box by box, which was the only effort that six-year-old Liu Xiangcheng could make for his own situation. This was the only thing six-year-old Liu Xiangcheng could do for his own situation -- to fight the Four Pests more vigorously than anyone else to earn his red scarf. In his primary and secondary school in Gubei, Fuzhou Military Region, all children of the revolution, he was the descendant of a large landowner, "I was 'all red and a little black'."
In the fourth grade of elementary school he was picked up by his father, who worked for Ta Kung Pao, and sent to Hong Kong, where the school held a special ceremony on the playground to let him wear the red scarf to Hong Kong, "so when I got to Hong Kong, I was 'all black and a little bit red' again."
In 1976, he returned to China as a reporter for the U.S. "Time", wearing a black veil of Guangdong people face him silent, but from their bodies and eyes, he immediately felt "unusual calm", that is, people from one realm to another realm will only appear when something That is something that can only happen when a person passes from one realm to another -- a state that can only be "realized".
Three years later, he was at the Dalian Polytechnic Institute, walking in front of a statue in the morning, when he saw a young man skating on his roller skates, and he snapped this photo, because this moment expressed what he had realized, a "kind of inner sense of immense liberation and a feeling of facing an uncertain future.

When I asked him how an industry's initiation begins, he said there's a word for it: "bubbling". You can't do without it.
When he was an intern at Life magazine, he spent nine months working as an intern for the famous photographer Keenan Millie. The old man was 72 at the time, and "in the whole nine months he never talked about technical problems." Except that every evening, the old man would put the images he had picked out on the wall and look at them with him, telling him, "This one's good, that one's not."
Why? Because it's more important to interpret events than to capture them.
When he was at Time, people at the magazine would say to him, "Liu Xiangcheng, go to India, live there for four years, go on a pilgrimage and drink tea with them. Every time you go out to work, you have to box up all your luggage and equipment and ship them to another country where your own children go to school. The photos are soaked up like this.
He said that there is less "leisure" in Chinese culture nowadays, and I understand him to mean that there is less of a kind of leisurely pleasure that does not care about utilitarianism, and that without this, the development of culture will not be abundant. He said that people nowadays "go on business trips to represent the creation", and stay in Italy or the seaside is called leisure, "they are busy all day long leisure, where still know what is leisure."

When it comes to what he does now, he puts a lot of effort into organizing and editing historical images, to my surprise.
He sees a cultural rift in a huge China, "We lack a ****ing standard, the same thing we talk about in Beijing, and we talk about it in Gansu, in Fujian, in Guangdong, can it still be the same concept and the same thing? Right now we're not, because we haven't developed to that extent, and everyone is shouting slogans and hoping that people will hear them, and that doesn't work, that's not a sign of a cultured country."
He cited the Hershey Prize as an example of judges, said the first round as long as there is a judge to raise their hands photo can enter the next round, the second round is three people raised their hands, the third round is five people raised their hands, and so on into the final round before they start arguing. "Argue until your neck is red. That doesn't matter because there's a ****ing foundation of knowledge beforehand and there's no need to fight over basic standards, unlike at home."
After breaking free from a single standard, and then not having had time to build a ****ing foundation of knowledge, there is a void in which people are at a loss.
Liu Xiangcheng has reflected much on the successive polarizations in China since modern times, and he sums up the reasons for not being able to maintain sanity and balance: "To be able to do so with an open mind, one must try to face and reflect on one's own history as objectively and accurately as possible, because history is our ****same memory. How China treats its history will affect how it develops in the future. It's so important."
He said, "I'm 60 years old and I'm not likely to go into battle again, but something like organizing history requires a person like me. It has to be peeled slowly, piece by piece, like an onion, with the process shown in layers and the conclusion left completely open."
"The past is the best guide to the future," he said.
Four
In the early 1990s, he came across Pearl Sai's preface to Lin Yutang's book in a used bookstore in Paris and said, "Often I have opened books written about China and closed them with disappointment, because they contain so many feeble overstatements. People are fervently defending a country that needs no defense."
Liu Xiangcheng used a photo to illustrate what is in his mind China. 1980, not long after the resumption of the college entrance examination, many people do not have enough light at home at night, students who want to take the university entrance exams, ran to Tiananmen Square to borrow the street lamps to go to study. When he saw these girls, "I wanted to level myself with the students and had to lie down on the ground to shoot. I lie in front of this girl, lying on the ground, pressing the B shutter, I have no way to know how much exposure, I counted in my mind one, two, three, four, counted 25 and then let go. Interestingly, after counting for so long, they didn't move a muscle, knowing that if they moved a bit, the photo would be false."
Here's his definition, "What is Chinese? The Chinese were able to survive 25 movements in 33 years."
Like Lin Yutang in the 1930s, he chooses to show his respect with honesty. "Perhaps I love my country too, but I am careful not to let them know it. For one may go through life wearing a cloak of patriotism, ragged and waving, and flaunting himself not only in China but abroad. I can be honest, because unlike these patriots, I am not ashamed of my country. I can publicize all her troubles because I have not lost hope. China is so much greater than her little patriots that she doesn't need them to butter her up. She'll be smooth again; that's what she's always done."
He said, "China is a radical change in the midst of constancy, be patient."
