Lang Lang with his wife
In November 2020, international piano superstar Lang Lang posted a photo with his wife Alice on his personal social platform. Now Lang Lang has a brilliant career and a happy marriage, which can be called a winner in life.
As a world-renowned piano superstar, Lang Lang has a layer of aura and brilliance above his head. However, behind the scenery, he and his father have a blood and tears of the past, and still think of the teacher's neglect and humiliation when he first went to Beijing to learn piano, and Lang Lang was still in tears of heartache...
Lang Lang was born in 1982 in Shenhe District, Shenyang, where his grandfather was a music teacher. Lang Lang's father, Lang Guoren, was obsessed with erhu playing, and due to the times, he failed to be admitted to the Shenyang Conservatory of Music and later became a literary and artistic soldier. After retiring from the army, Lang Guoren entered the Shenyang Municipal Public Security Bureau. Lang Lang's mother, Zhou Xiulan, works at the Shenyang Institute of Automation of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Teacher Zhu Yafen and Lang Lang
Lang Lang is a piano prodigy, just turned two years old, the TV broadcast "Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck" piano music, he can play the whole song without a teacher. Lang Guoren discovered his son's outstanding musical talent, and after unifying his thinking with his wife, he began to deliberately cultivate his son.
In 1985, When Lang Lang was only 3 years old, Lang Guoren introduced himself to Professor Zhu Yafen through a friend. Professor Zhu graduated from the Piano Department of the Shanghai Conservatory of Music and taught at the Shenyang Conservatory of Music at the time. She is a native of Shanghai, and then joined the team to Shenyang, became the daughter-in-law of Shenyang, and lived with her mother-in-law.
Every time his father brought Lang Lang to learn the piano, Lang Lang always had to say to Teacher Zhu's mother-in-law, "I'm sorry, I'm bothered", and then start practicing.

Professor Zhu likes lang lang very much and teaches him with his heart, and lang lang's piano performance level has greatly improved. In 1987, when Lang Lang was just 5 years old, he won the first place in the Children's Piano Competition in the Three Eastern Provinces and was invited to hold a personal piano concert, which caused a sensation throughout Shenyang. Two years later, 7-year-old Lang Lang participated in the first Shenyang Children's Piano Competition and won the first place again.
At this time, the young Lang Lang had become popular all over the three eastern provinces, and his home was full of award certificates. Just after the Spring Festival in 1990, Professor Zhu Yafen said to Lang Guoren: "If Lang Lang wants to have greater development, you should take him to Beijing to visit a teacher and take the entrance examination of the Central Conservatory of Music." ”
Lang Guoren was embarrassed: "I don't know anyone in Beijing, who do I worship?" Zhu Yafen recommended a female piano professor at the Central Conservatory of Music.

After returning home, Lang Guoren discussed the matter with his wife, and Zhou Xiulan said: "For the sake of our son's future, we have to make sacrifices, or I will resign and go to Beijing to accompany my son." Lang Guoren replied: "Taking my son to Beijing will face many difficulties, or I will go." ”
Soon, Lang Guoren resigned from the Shenyang Municipal Public Security Bureau and took Lang Lang to Beijing.
In order to raise their sons over the years, Lang Guoren and his wife had no savings at all, and it was not easy to scrape together a few thousand yuan. In order to facilitate his son to learn piano and save money, Lang Guoren rented a bungalow near the China Conservatory of Music.
After the father and son settled down, Lang Guoren took his son to meet the piano professor. When they met, the other party was very unhappy and always expressionless. Because it was recommended by an acquaintance Zhu Yafen, the other party reluctantly accepted it.
Lang Lang as a child
Ever since Lang Lang learned piano with her, the other party has been humiliating Lang Lang, scolding Lang Lang at every turn, and stimulating him with harsh language. The female professor said to Lang Lang every day: "You play too badly, the piano is so harsh!" "You don't have a little talent, you don't play the piano at all."
Lang Lang played for 3 hours, but the other party also scolded him for not working hard. She said that Lang Lang was a potato head, and asked him to go back to Shenyang and not waste the piano.
Lang Lang held back tears and played the piano, and in the end the tears still dripped onto the keys. Lang Guoren, who was ashamed, self-blamed, and in pain, hid in the bathroom many times and wept.
Many times, Lang Lang tearfully asked his father: "Dad, I am getting less and less confident, maybe I should not learn piano at all." Lang Guoren said: "Son, I always believe that you are a piano genius, the teacher's attitude is not good, you are obedient and sensible, play well to make her happy." ”

However, no matter how cautious Lang Lang was and how seriously he played, he did not exchange a smile from the teacher. Lang Guoren never understood that he and his son had always been respectful and respectful to the teacher, and there was no arrears in tuition, how could the other party treat Lang Lang like this?
Zhou Xiulan, who is far away in Shenyang, is not easy, in order to earn tuition for her son, in addition to work, she also has to work part-time in her spare time. She is frugal and usually reluctant to buy even a scarf.
Lang Guoren did not dare to tell his wife about his son's situation, for fear that she would not be able to withstand this blow. During the holidays, in order not to delay his son's learning of the piano, Lang Guoren did not take his son back to Shenyang. He also did not allow his wife to come to Beijing to see his son, saying that he would be distracted.
At that time, Lang Guoren was particularly troubled, he wanted to tell Professor Zhu about the situation, and he was worried about the outside world. This man often cried bitterly in the dark night and fought with himself.

Every time his son returned home after learning the piano, Lang Guoren also frantically forced Lang Lang to practice, and the sound of the rental house was not good, and the sound of the piano affected the rest of others. Some people slammed doors outside, some people threw garbage on doors, and some people sprayed irritating gases. Lang Guoren had to open the door and say good things and coax the other party away.
In October of that year, Lang Guoren took his son to the piano room where he was taught to learn the piano. It was raining that day, and Lang Lang and his father were wet. Father and son were shivering with coldness.
It is reasonable to say that parents bring students to learn the piano, and when they are wet with rain, teachers should hand over a towel and let them wipe the rain on their faces and heads. However, the other party did not, but was as cold as frost.
Lang Guoren took off his coat and wiped the rain on Lang Lang's head, while carefully saying, "Teacher, Lang Lang can practice the piano soon." The other party said: "There is no need for this, I have decided not to teach Lang Lang anymore, you should go now, and don't come back in the future." ”
Lang Lang with his parents
As if thundering on a sunny day, Lang Lang and his father were stunned. Lang Guoren pleaded with tears: "Teacher, please teach Lang Lang, he has musical talent." "That's your opinion, I don't think so, he probably doesn't even have any hope of entering the conservatory, I think your child is hopeless." 」
The music professor said this, which is equivalent to sentencing Lang Lang's future to death. Father and son left the piano room sadly, standing in the rain and crying. Lang Lang cried and shouted, "I will never touch the piano again, I want to go back to Shenyang." I hate pianos, I hate pianos. Lang Guoren took his son in his arms, and both father and son were soaking wet. Finally, his father carried Lang Lang to the back seat of the bicycle and drove him back to the rental house.
After the rain stopped, Lang Guoren came to the street and tearfully dialed Professor Zhu's phone, and he relayed the female professor's words to Zhu Yafen. Professor Zhu was also surprised and did not understand why the other party could do this. She told Lang Guoren: "I always believe that Lang Lang is a piano genius, and you should not give up. ”
In this way, Lang Guoren and his son were stranded in Beijing, and there was no place to learn piano. Soon, Lang Lang and his father learned from the parents of a piano boy that they did not give red envelopes to female teachers when they visited the teacher. Because many parents of students bring their children to visit the teacher, in addition to the tuition, they have to wrap a big red envelope for the teacher.

And each piano professor brings a lot of students, and the number of places admitted to the conservatory is limited, Lang Lang has talent, does not give red envelopes, and occupies the teacher's quota, so she has been unhappy in her heart.
Lang Lang studied with her for half a year, and she scolded her for half a year, thinking that she could scold him away. Who knew that Lang Lang had not left, so she had to sweep Lang Lang out of the house.
Lang Lang and his father were stunned, they didn't expect the water to be so deep. Lang Guoren quit his job and left his hometown to take his son to Beijing to learn piano, the cost is huge, where is the money to wrap red envelopes for teachers? Besides, they don't know the routine.
Because he did not give the red envelope, the piano teacher's words almost ruined Lang Lang's life. Now Lang Lang has long become an international piano superstar, but when he remembers the scene when he first studied with his teacher, he will still have heartache and tears. Sometimes in the middle of the night, I would dream of the female professor who had a strong voice, and I would be frightened to wake up, which showed how deep the shadow in Lang Lang's heart was!
This huge blow made Lang Lang and his father almost commit suicide later, what was going on? The next issue of "Old Entertainment" will tell the details of it.
