Cao Peng recalled, "When I first met some children with autism
A lot of people lean on their moms
I can't sit upright, I can't stand straight."
Undergo a variety of training
Children don't just sit up straight
Listen carefully during class
You can also go to training alone
Singing, dancing, and playing music are not to mention
Unpaid, not taken
For more than ten years, Cao Peng has insisted on using music
A whole new world has opened up for children with autism
"I can still command until I'm 100 years old!"

Still conducting on stage
He didn't just adapt sheet music for children with autism
They are also given concerts every year
Every time you perform on stage or attend an important event
No matter how the dress changes
In the pocket on Cao Peng's chest
They all have a special red collar flower
This is the red scarf that the children wear for him
Cao Peng said he could still command until he was 100 years old
"As long as I live, you can use it!"
