The next morning, he took a walk beside the ashes that buried the fruits of his years of labor. The inventor said, "Disasters have their value; all our mistakes have been burned away, and now we can begin again."

In this city of art, where etiquette is the order of the day, it is the royal family that arrives, and the people do no more than three rounds of applause, and on this night, if the police had not intervened, perhaps the applause would have been ten, twenty times...
What a magnificent spectacle this was! What an unforgettable moment! Here, for the first time, a monumental musical masterpiece appeared on the European music scene.
Roman? Roland wrote in excited strokes: "Dusk is approaching, and a thunderstorm is brewing with it. And then the heavy clouds, full of lightning, darkening the night, carrying the storm, that is the beginning of the Ninth Symphony - suddenly, when the wind and the rain are raging, the darkness cracks, the night is driven away from the sky, and, by the force of will, the clarity of the day is given back to us".

The people cheered and applauded wildly, and rushed onto the stage in tears and tears to the master who had forged for mankind such a marvelous masterpiece of art...

the composer who had created one heroic peak after another in the world of music -- would be the one who had created the world of music.... But who could have imagined that Beethoven, the author of the great works --

From this thrilling opening night, Beethoven's Ninth Symphony expanded and continued into infinite space and time, so much so that many musical artists have been eager to praise the masterpiece in a passionate way.

Zu Chongzhi of south China was the first person in the world to pinpoint pi to the seventh decimal place by relying on a piece of small bamboo to perform a large number of complex calculations over and over again, after countless failures, in the very humble conditions of the time. Lu Xun had wandered, Gothic, Beethoven also wanted to commit suicide, but they all tenaciously overcame their own depression and weakness, through their own efforts, and ultimately are firmly towards the truth, but also more honed their will and perseverance. A famous saying goes: "Human life is like a flood rushing, and it is difficult to stir up beautiful waves without encountering islands and reefs". The story of Zhao Wang Goujian, who tasted the guts and courage while lying down on his salary, has long been a model for future generations to rise up against all odds. Confucius wrote The Spring and Autumn Annals in the pain of disillusionment, Qu Yuan wrote Li Sao in the pain of exile, and Cao Xueqin wrote Dream of Red Mansions in the pain of home breakage....... Students' Examples: Overcoming Frustration and Creating Talent Beethoven experienced countless trials and tribulations in his life. However, he did not give in to fate, saying, "I will hold fate by the throat, and it must not overwhelm me completely!" All kinds of tribulations and setbacks sharpened his will and inspired his enterprising spirit. Talking Qian, Paganini, Abraham Lincoln,. For example, Li Shizhen, the famous medical doctor of the Ming Dynasty, who had taken the examination for a candidate three times and failed three times, then aspired to study medicine and finally wrote the "Compendium of Materia Medica" which has been passed down through the ages. Sima Qian, an outstanding historian and writer in the Han Dynasty, was originally an official, serving as a langzhong at the beginning, and then succeeding his father as a tai shi ling. He eventually offended Emperor Wu of Han by justifying Zhuling, who had surrendered to the Xiongnu, and was not only imprisoned, but also subjected to the punishment of the palace. Under such setbacks and blows, he turned to writing books in anger, and finally wrote "The Records of the Grand Historian", a great historical and literary masterpiece. King Wen detained and performed the "Zhou Yi"; Zhong Ni Er and made the "Spring and Autumn Annals"; Qu Yuan banished, and was given the "Li Sao"; Zuo Qiu lost his eyesight, and there was the "Guoyu"; Sun Zi Bin Feet, the "Art of War" to repair the columns of the ...... Japan once had a drug expert, in order to invent a drug specializing in the treatment of syphilis, although it had experienced 605 setbacks and failures in a row, but he didn't get discouraged Instead, he continued to summarize the experience until the 606th time to try to make a success, so people call this drug "606". Young people want to achieve something, must have this not afraid of failure, not afraid of setbacks, indomitable fighting spirit. The fragrance of the plum blossom needs to be tested by the cold of the winter months before it can be dispersed. People are also like this, all the characters in history have a role to play, are through difficulties and setbacks to hone the "sword sharp from sharpening, plum blossom fragrance from the bitter cold to come."
Editor's note: Throughout history and modern times, any person who has made a difference has had to go through the trials and tribulations, but will all those who have gone through the trials and tribulations be successful? In history, Liu Bei also encountered the setback of losing his second brother, but how did he deal with it? "Liu Bei, faced with the setback of losing his second brother, was unable to let go of his brotherly love and magnified his pain. As a result, he made a wrong decision in the midst of his pain and hastily sent out his troops to attack Wu, resulting in the ancient tragedy of "the orphan of the White Emperor". It is sad and pathetic! French writer Balzac said: "Frustration is like a stone, for the weak is a stumbling block, so that you do not step forward; but for the strong is a stepping stone, so that you stand higher.
