Fang Zhongyong was able to write poems at the age of 5, and he could also achieve outstanding literary brilliance, and people who knew about this matter were amazed and specially regarded as a prodigy. However, Zhongyong's father did not cultivate his talents well, only focusing on immediate interests, not letting him go to school, but taking him around all day long to get silver, and eventually making him an ordinary person. Zhongyong's ending is touching, and its tragedy warns future generations that no matter how talented, the learning of the day after tomorrow is also indispensable.
He Xuehao
Most of us are ordinary people who rely hard to water the flowers of dreams, but there are always some people like Fang Zhongyong, who are talented in some ways. In Kaifeng, Henan, there was a prodigy named He Xuehao, who loved arithmetic at a young age and had a great talent for abacus mental arithmetic. Parents feel that his talent is intelligent, so he cherishes it and focuses on cultivation.
With personal talent and acquired cultivation, He Xuehao won an international award at the age of 5. Not only that, but this little prodigy with his own light was also favored by the Military Economic College of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, who was only 8 years old when he was admitted, and the military academy promised to bear all the costs of his schooling and life. So why is this genius boy so good? How did he do it? Today, we will tell his story.
He Xuehao and his mother
He was a young man and loved arithmetic
On the eve of He Xuehao's birth, his family was full of expectations for him, because at that time, his parents were already in a state of confusion, and the arrival of this little life was completely a windfall. In January 2003, on the day she learned that she was pregnant, She also made a special phone call with her eldest son to share the good news, and on the other end of the phone, her adult brother also joined the army looking forward to the arrival of new life in the family. After He Xuehao was born, his parents poured all their love into him, and this little child grew up in a honeypot.
Although the parents are only ordinary workers, they have previous experience in raising children, and have successfully sent He Xuehao's brother to college, and now that he is about to graduate, he no longer lets his parents worry, and He Xuehao has the opportunity to "occupy" all the love of his parents in his early childhood. Parents have been laid off, most of the time idle at home, waiting for He Xuehao to be 1 year old, how to cultivate better children, has become the top priority of this family.
The image comes from the Internet
It is said that the parents of the He family have a wealth of parenting experience, but in order to adapt to the changes of the times and better educate their children to grow, they also specially search for parenting books. At night, He Xuehao fell asleep sweetly, but his parents were still lying on the desk to study the parenting books, and when these searched books were basically finished, they felt that the knowledge they had mastered was still not enough, and they were still not satisfied with their own abilities, and they specially went online to get the parenting scriptures. He Xuehao, who is only 1 year old, is still too young, but his parents can't wait to verify the learning results on him.
After the daily meal, other children may have reached the dessert time after the meal, but He Xuehao has been dominated by learning. Mother and He Xuehao sat at the table, there would always be all kinds of small books piled up in front of them, and mothers would first take the literacy books, spread out the books, and prepare for the lesson. He Xuehao felt that he should not like literacy classes, and his resistance was to allow himself to occasionally appear out of his mind, and what made him most proud was that even his attentive mother did not notice.
After surviving the literacy class, and finally arriving at the math class, his mother would teach He Xuehao to count, and He Xuehao was very happy and full of motivation to learn. Mothers have learned a lot about parenting and know that the education of their children should be gradual. Under the tireless teaching of his mother, He Xuehao knew more than 500 Chinese characters at the age of 2, so far beyond the ability of his peers to be attributed to his mother, of course, this is also thanks to He Xuehao's cooperation. After all, it is not easy for children of this age to be willing to divide their time into learning.
3-year-old He Xuehao can already be simply calculated, at this time the parents seem to recognize that their son can have such "achievements" has been very powerful, began to pay attention to the combination of work and leisure, think that can not stifle the child's nature, specially bought toys to encourage. Children of the same age will definitely have their eyes glow when they see the toy, but the toy is here in He Xuehao, and he does not feel the enthusiasm of the owner, and it has long been shelved aside. He Xue did not like to play with toys, but stumbled upon a "new toy".
It was an old abacus that had been stained with dust, and He Xuehao rescued it from the grocery heap, just a few random strokes, and the childish little finger was covered with dust. The mother did not blame the situation, and carried her son and the abacus to the faucet to rinse, which was a silent encouragement, He Xuehao successfully received it, and the abacus was his entertainment project after that. Since He Xuehao liked to play with abacus, his mother paid special attention to his words and deeds, always recalled her son's performance in arithmetic, and firmly believed that letting her son learn abacus mental arithmetic should be the best choice.
Talented and winners
He Xuehao, 4 years old, was "forced" into an abacus mental arithmetic training class by his mother, only because abacus mental arithmetic was too popular at that time. The training class said that the number of places was limited, and the parents who hoped to become a dragon were disregarding their children's wishes, in order not to let their children lose at the starting line. The mother inquired in many ways and made field investigations, and only then did she choose a good training class, and the number of applicants was large, which made it difficult to "force" He Xuehao into it.
Before He Xuehao entered the training class, he did not have a clear definition of abacus mental arithmetic, and the things that his parents did not know clearly, only the teachers in the training class could explain it to him clearly, which was the first benefit he found here. The so-called abacus mental arithmetic, in fact, is the use of abacus, addition, subtraction, multiplication and division and other calculation methods, when skilled operation of the abacus, you can complete the operation in the brain, blurt out the answer that needs to be calculated.
In the abacus training class, many children are really stuffed by their parents, they never take the class seriously, and from the moment they enter the door, they are waiting for the teacher to issue instructions to leave school. Only He Xuehao, he would listen to the lectures and practice very carefully from beginning to end, and soon after arriving at the training class, he showed amazing talent. He Xuehao was the youngest, but his performance would surprise the teachers every time, and the teachers found a sense of accomplishment in teaching from him, and deliberately explained the matter to his mother.
The mother was very happy, but there was still some uncertainty in her heart, so with this uncertain heart, after receiving He Xuehao from the training class, she stopped by the supermarket to buy something. Her mother first bought some household items at the supermarket, and when she went to the vegetable and fruit area to pick vegetables, He Xuehao wandered around the supermarket alone. He Xuehao suddenly saw a novelty toy and rushed over to pull his mother, wanting her to buy it for him.
He Xuehao rarely took the initiative to ask for toys, according to the reason, his mother could buy them for him, but considering that he had to study hard now and could not be distracted, he only brought 100 yuan on the pretext that he did not have enough money to buy for him. He Xuehao blurted out the total price of things his mother had bought, and said how much money was left, which calmed his mother and happily bought him toys. In the daily life of the future, He Xuehao became more and more skilled in counting money, which strengthened his family's determination to cultivate him with all his might.
In 2008, He Xuehao enrolled in school, and in order to take better care of him, his mother deliberately rented a house nearby and took good care of his diet and living. He Xuehao's life is both monotonous and fulfilling, the monotony is that the main places of his daily activities are schools, training classes and homes; to the fullest, he has begun to participate in various competitions. In the competition, He Xuehao won the prize many times, and in order to make him go wider, his mother invited him to a more professional teacher.
The new teacher his mother invited to He Xuehao was named Li Junjie, and his other identity was that of the referee of the World Abacus Mental Arithmetic Competition. With the guidance of professionals, He Xuehao has made rapid progress and has been recommended to the national competition. In the competition, He Xuehao played steadily, so he won the place in the World Series. Next, the most difficult thing is the preparation period, the mother who accompanies He Xuehao is also very hard, her mental journey is that while strictly urging He Xuehao to step up study, but sometimes watching the child work so hard, it is extremely painful.
It was winter, the snow closed the road, coach Li Junjie looked out the window and decided that He Xuehao's mother and son would not come again today. However, not long after, there was a knock at the door outside, and when I opened the door, I saw that it was He Xuehao and his mother, who had obviously come on foot and were very embarrassed. It was not until the evening return that her mother helped He Xuehao change out of his wet pants, and his mother wanted to push the door and make a few more commands, and at this time, He Xuehao was already sleepy and asleep.
At the scene of the world competition, there are players from all over the world, and most of them must also have the talent of abacus mental arithmetic, and what can compete at this moment is the practice of the day after tomorrow. 5-year-old He Xuehao played extraordinary, and finally lived up to the trust and won the second prize in the world. Behind this hard-won achievement is a reward for He Xuehao's efforts, and it is also a companionship exchanged for his mother without complaint or regret.
Pass the test and successfully enroll
After the competition, He Xuehao became a local celebrity and was praised as a prodigy. He Xuehao was young, only abacus in his heart, only his mother felt the pressure of the outside world for him, and the pressure came from the fact that in order to maintain excellence, excellent people could only continue to move forward, could not turn back, and could not relax. As it turned out, He Xuehao maintained his excellence because in 2010, he received an acceptance letter from the PLA Military Economics College.
What kind of college is this? How was He Xuehao admitted? It starts at the beginning.
He Xuehao and his parents
First of all, this military school has some specialities, especially the abacus mental arithmetic unit that recruited He Xuehao, since its establishment, it has always recruited some prodigies to cultivate. Tracing back to the source, that is, once the war breaks out, they may need to provide data on the battlefield, and in today's rapid development of computers, the important role of human brain computing has not been ignored, because only the human brain is the most secure.
He Xuehao became famous in the first world war, the leaders of the military academy noticed him, and later learned that He Xuehao's age also met the recruitment regulations, so they threw an olive branch at him. When He Xuehao was 7 years old, his parents received a notice from the college, hoping that they would take He Xuehao to the admission test. His parents, He Xuehao, were proud, so they let He Xuehao start to prepare for the exam, because he could even win the world award before, and this entrance exam was very easy for him.
Abacus Arithmetic Force
In 2011, He Xuehao was admitted without suspense, and also received a formal acceptance letter, which indicated that the little prodigy would enter the military school and receive an education suitable for him. Finally, his parents sent him to a military school, the state will bear all the costs of his subsequent schooling and life, he will start his new life, and his future will be bright.
