First of all, his father's sudden death brought great pain to Qin Yong, for whom August 15, 2003 is a day he will never forget. It was on that day that Qin Yong, along with other Panther members, held an open-air concert in the square outside the Yuanmingyuan, and his father personally went to watch his concert to cheer for him. However, what no one expected was that his father had a cerebral hemorrhage and collapsed on the ground on the way to the concert. Qin Yong's mother and brother sent his father to the hospital, and on the stage singing Qin Yong was completely unaware of this. It was not until after the show that Qin Yong received a call from his mother and learned that his father was dying. Father eventually died of failure to rescue, Qin Yong heart feel very guilty. Before he died, his father comforted him by saying, "I am very happy because I saw my son's performance at the last moment." Qin Yong felt that life is precious and he should spend more time with his family.
2. Taking care of his mentally handicapped son
Secondly, Qin Yong chose to take a break from his beloved music career in order to take better care of his mentally handicapped son. His son seemed different from other children at first, but slowly he began to feel something was wrong and was diagnosed with mental retardation. This was a bolt from the blue for him as a first-time father. However, he never wanted to give up on the child.
Frequent performances required him to go out of town, and it was impossible for him to combine performing with caring for his child. So he finally decided to give up the music career he had been pursuing and prioritized his efforts on the child's rehabilitation. Since the birth of his child, he and his wife have been working harder than the average parent, doubling their efforts to find a suitable school and training center for their son. After his son went to school, he has been insisting on dropping him off at 6:00 a.m. every morning and picking him up after school to do exercise. The effort was not lost on him. This year, his son is 16 years old and thanks to the exercise, his intellectual level has improved greatly compared to children in the same condition.
3. Open a sensory training center to help more children.
Qin Yong never felt that having such a child was a burden, but said optimistically, "The child is my lucky star. I am very grateful to this child, he has brought us a lot of surprises and touches." In order to help more children in the same situation, Qin Yong and his friends have opened several sensory training centers to help mentally disabled children develop their intelligence and improve their mobility.
Life puts Qin Yong through a severe test of frustration, but Qin Yong has always been strong and optimistic, does not give up lightly, and does his best to support a happy home for his family.
