14-year-old child prodigy, four-time speech champion, founder of two brands, claiming to write 300 lyrics, 2,000 poems and15,000-word novel a day.
The most controversial is the child's speech, a 6-minute video streaming out:
"Zenino, are you a prodigy or a successful liar?"
0 1. The fog of "child prodigy"
Zenino, a talented girl, became popular because of her "bright eye" resume.
Based on the calculation of "2000 poems a day", Zenino needs 1 minute to write about 1.4 poems to meet the requirements.
The most outstanding ability of this talented girl is speech. She once participated in the recording of the variety show Super Speaker. In the speech, her language expression ability is amazing.
With the fermentation of events, there are more and more doubts in the story. First of all, there are 2000 Japanese poems, which is obviously unreasonable.
First of all, her father came forward to clarify that the rapid creation is "not fake", and 3,000 songs are not a problem when the state is good. Then he added an explanation to the Beijing News:
The speed at which my daughter writes poetry stems from a challenge competition organized by the school. She wrote 65,438+000 poems in eight and a half hours, but it was actually just an impromptu computer typing contest.
My daughter's book has never been published, and it is only used for internal exchange and study. The two brands in her resume, such as Qinglilang and Cosmic Super, are her father's.
There is no such institution in the "Global Chinese Young Leaders Learning Association" in the resume; Reporter of China International News Magazine, which is not a public publication in China and registered in Hongkong.
Soon, Cen was found out that he had not been to school for several years and was an apprentice of Ji Jianjing, an entrepreneur mentor.

She should have grown into a talented person, but she was trained as a tool to make money by adults with ulterior motives.
02. "Starting line anxiety" is crushing children.
In fact, Zenino is not a "real" child prodigy, but her talent is at least not bad. Be able to face the camera, talk for dozens of minutes, deal with the ice rink, and take your time. ......
This is her gift. If we can live and study in a down-to-earth way, maybe we will not regard her as a stage for selling successful studies, but as a host contest and a poetry conference.
How can a good boy be led astray? Look at her "little adult" appearance, can not help but make people feel sorry.
Cenino is biased, and parents who blindly pursue success are hard to blame. Even though the controversy was huge, her father still praised her daughter's "brilliant achievements" in an interview.
Because in this era of anxiety, how to make children "win at the starting line" is a boulder in the hearts of many parents.
"20 19 Big Data Report on Primary School Students' Learning Status" shows that the reading volume of primary school students nationwide has reached an average of 7.3 books per month, mostly English picture books and encyclopedias, almost 20 times that of adults.
There was a very popular joke in Weibo before: Is the vocabulary of 2000 enough for children in grade two of primary school?
A: It is enough in America, but it may not be enough in Haidian.
Behind the joke, it reflects the increasing peer pressure and parents' deep anxiety about their children's future.
Some parents have been "possessed" and even reached the point of superstition. Before that, "quantum fluctuation speed reading" broke out, allowing children to put on blindfolds and turn pages quickly with books in their hands. A book with hundreds of pages can be "read" in just a few seconds.
Many parents still believe in such an absurd method.
Zenino's grades may meet the requirements of some parents for their children-"disappointing". Wearing several auras, he ran around in major cities to give speeches, enjoying the envy and appreciation of the masses.
Zenino said in his speech: "I want my parents to feel extremely happy and proud because of me." A child who can earn money and face like this may make many parents feel envious and even make his children worship a successful master. ?
However, whether this prodigy's "successful" model is "overtaking in corners" or "encouraging young people" remains to be discussed.
Please give your creativity back to your children.
Children's happiness in this era is one aspect. They have better material conditions and richer learning channels. These are all beautiful things that the previous generation did not have in childhood.
On the other hand, they are also unfortunate. The heavy pressure of entering a higher school, endless remedial classes and even interest classes are no longer just interests ... Under the spell of "all-round development" of morality, intelligence, physique and beauty, it is increasingly difficult for children to feel happy.
They all say "it's time to be famous", but some parents obviously look further.
The famous writer Zheng was not good at writing when he was a child. As early as the second grade, he showed a deviant side in his writing.
The title of the composition is "My Ideal", the students write about scientists, astronauts and policemen ... and Zheng honestly gives his own answer: dung digger.
Zheng was lucky that he had an enlightened father to teach him and let him develop his writing ability, which led to the later fairy tale king.
Picasso said, "I spent my whole life learning how to draw like a child."
Children have a unique perception and imagination of the world. What adults should do is to encourage and guide them to grow freely until their minds are mature, instead of transforming and carving according to their own rigid standards.
Some people are young geniuses, but they will be hurt by a song when they grow up; Some people seem mediocre, but in the end they have a smooth life.
But in any case, we don't want to see the next Zenino-style artificial prodigy.
Give the world back to children, and don't let children's eyes become dim and utilitarian. Maybe this is the only thing we can do.
