In August 2008, American girl Tamika? Kaikins and her teammates won the women's basketball championship in Beijing Olympic Games. Before, Kekins had participated in many grand competitions. "Without my father's teaching," said Keakins, "I won't appear in any competition."
Catkins was born deaf. When she was 3 years old, her parents brought her a pair of big and bulky hearing AIDS. She hates this pair of hearing AIDS, especially after primary school, and she hates the teasing of her classmates. Once, the teacher asked her, "How much is 4 plus 2?" Kaikins nervously replied, "6...6." The students burst into laughter, and her face turned red and tears welled up. "I won't say another word in class," she told herself.
One day in the second grade, Keakins' mother and otologist called her out of the classroom while she was in class. At that moment, Kearns felt that the eyes of the whole class were staring at her, and the boy sitting next to her even laughed. "Why can't I be like others?" Kearns questioned in his mind.
On the way to school that afternoon, when Kaikins and her sister Tao Jia passed through a wilderness, she suddenly pulled off her hearing aid and threw it out. My sister stared at Kearns angrily. Why are you doing this? "I don't know." Keggins shrugged. "Mom and Dad will go crazy." Sister said. Keggins is a little scared, too
Keggins's mother was really angry when she got home. Mother ordered Keggins to go back to the wilderness with her to get the hearing aid, but it was dark and could not be found. That night, Kearns's father solemnly said to her, "You have made a choice, and you must live in this choice in the future." "Catkins didn't understand what his father meant." You don't want to wear a hearing aid, so you don't need to wear it from now on. Without it, you must take care of your life. "My father said. Let her take control of her own life, which is also the choice made by her father for Kekins' behavior.
After leaving the hearing aid, Kearns found himself very good at lip reading. Without the dazzling hearing aid, other children stopped making fun of her. Later, catkin fell in love with basketball. In high school, her basketball skills surpassed those of most of her classmates. "When you make an accurate 3-pointer in the game, no one will care whether your listening is good or bad." Kearns smiled.
For years, Kearns prayed to be liked by others. When she was running on the basketball court, she found that she got far more than she prayed for. Father said, "This is the result that you have mastered your life." This result enabled Kaikins to successfully enter the American women's basketball team to participate in the London Olympics. "At the London Olympics, I will show my best performance. Returning to the United States after the game, I will bring my experience and feelings to those hearing-impaired children like me. " Keggins told reporters.
"Will you encourage them to throw away their hearing AIDS?" The reporter asked with a smile. Kearns smiled and said, "Of course not. I will tell them that everyone is special. As long as they take care of themselves, they will also be blessed by God and good things will happen. "
Keggins' choice

You won't always be inferior to others.
That year, she also jumped the queue in the countryside, and her thin body was burdened with heavy farm work. One day, she was busy in the watermelon field, and someone called her and said that the workers' propaganda team had come to recruit students, so give it a try.
In this attempt, she went to Beijing Foreign Studies University and became a student of workers, peasants and soldiers in the English Department. However, before I could be thankful, the haze enveloped my heart. In the class, she actually has two "most": one is the oldest-an old girl; One is the worst-the foundation is too weak.
One day in class, the teacher asked a very simple question. I didn't understand it the first time, but I didn't know how to answer it the second time, so I froze in class. After class, she ran to the hillside in the backyard and cried.
"What's the big deal? I'm just worse than others. Can't I work hard? " Finally figured it out, she made a promise to herself: "I must be the best student!" " "She is very diligent, studying late into the night every night, and she will lift the bed at four or five in the morning. Whether it is hot or cold, you can often see her under the big tree in the corner of the campus. Read aloud, recite aloud, turn over what you learned on the first day, and don't stop until you master it thoroughly.
In a flash, four years have passed When she graduated, she really became an excellent student in the whole grade. That generation is completely different from today, because she has no autonomy in choosing a job. She comes from the English Department and has been assigned to the British Embassy as an operator. This job is monotonous, boring and troublesome. In the eyes of outsiders, it is still a very worthless job. At first, she could work honestly. As time goes by, her heart becomes more depressed and unbalanced-how can a top student who is open to the outside world be so wronged? Finally, in a meeting with her mother, she poured out her grievances.
The kind mother said nothing but told her to wash the bathroom and brush the toilet. She was unhappy and obeyed. But she tried to sweep the floor and brush the toilet several times, but she still felt very unclean. She couldn't help complaining: "No way, that's it!" Mother didn't speak, but made a bowl of dry ash, and then sprinkled it in a dirty and wet place, so that the dry ash could suck up the water and then sweep it. The effect is really much better. Before long, all the yellow dirt in the toilet disappeared, just like a whitening mask.
What she didn't do, mom did. She couldn't help praising her mother, but her mother told her: "You don't have to do one thing; If you do it, you must use your brains to do it well and go all out. You can't choose your job, but you can have your own choice, and that is to do your own job. " Standing by, she listened to her mother's words and remained silent for a long time.
After returning to work, she seems to be a different person. She remembered the names, telephone numbers, work scope and even the names of their families of all the people in the embassy. Not only that, there are many official and private affairs in the embassy that she is entrusted to inform, convey and tell. Gradually, she became a reception office and a big secretary. After work, she reads foreign newspapers and novels and constantly improves her reading and translation skills. Because of her enthusiasm and excellent level, she is very popular in the embassy.
One day, the British ambassador came to the telephone room, leaned against the door and said with a smile, "You know, all the people who contacted me recently congratulated me and said that I had an English girl as an operator. They were all surprised when they learned that the operator was a China girl! " The British ambassador personally came to the telephone room to praise an operator, which was the first time in the embassy!
Not long after, she was broken by her excellent work and went to work as an interpreter for the British Daily Telegraph reporter. The chief reporter of the newspaper is a well-known old lady, who has won the Military Medal and been awarded the Lord. She is very capable and has a big temper, and she has driven away her former translator. When she turned, the old lady didn't believe her strength and made it clear that she didn't want it. Later, she reluctantly agreed to try. Unexpectedly, a year later, the old lady often proudly said to others, "My translation is ten times better than yours." Later, he was sent to study in Britain, studied international relations at the London School of Economics, studied for a master's degree in linguistics at Leeds University, and studied for a doctorate at London University. After returning to China, she worked as a lecturer, associate professor, professor and vice president at the Foreign Affairs University, and won many awards from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
She is Ren Xiaoping. In recent ten years, she has successively served as the Press Counselor and Spokesperson of the Australian Embassy, the Deputy Director of the Translation Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Ambassador of China to Antigua and Barbuda. At present, she is the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of China to Namibia.
From teenage girl to ambassador plenipotentiary, every step of Ren Xiaoping's career is organized. However, no matter where she is sent, she is actively adapting and trying to do her job well and do her best. Ren Xiaoping's life experience tells us that when a person can't choose his own job, there is always one thing to choose-do it well! No matter when and where you do a good job, success is not far away.

Grass-roots little people achieve great miracles in life
If Diary of the Emperor Penguin is an epic about birds and Migratory Birds is a hymn about flying, then Paradise is a novel living in the world of birds.
At the 4th Cologne Film Festival, China's first film with birds as its "actors", Godsend Opportunity, won the "Most Popular Film" award in one fell swoop, becoming the most dazzling dark horse, and its production team became the most eye-catching focus at the award ceremony. However, no one believes that this film, which participated in the international film festival and finally won the grand prize, was written by three young people from non-professional film classes.
"God-given" tells a touching story of a lonely little black-tailed gull struggling with its fate. This feature film about a seagull's growth experience is beautiful, tortuous and shocking. Mr. Volcker Novak, an internationally renowned documentary master and judge of Cologne Film Festival, spoke highly of "A Godsend Opportunity": "It is a contribution to the film to complete the creation of feature films by documentary shooting." Godsend is the best movie in this film festival! "
Yes! The best movies are made by them. They are called tripod groups by friends. They are unknown people, with an average age of only 36, but they have created a miracle in the history of China movies. However, behind the film, their efforts are enormous. In seven years, three people gave the most vigorous seven years of their lives to the protagonist in the story, and familiar people said they were "crazy". But in their minds, this is not madness, but persistence and persistence, because they are all moved by "God-given", from hatching to losing their father, brother and mother ... a lonely bird, trembling and growing in the waves and rolling thunder of the land and sea island. Life is cruel, life is fragile, life is tenacious, life is beautiful ... this is almost the reappearance of life courage and strength.
Once their ideas were simple. Sun Xian, the director who loves birds since childhood, has been thinking: Where is the "Animal World" in China after watching the "Animal World" filmed by foreigners on TV? Finally, they found a sea donkey island more than 60 kilometers away from Weihai. The island is only a few nautical miles from the land, about 20 minutes by boat, and there is plenty of food around the island, which is a good breeding ground for seabirds. Every spring and summer, nearly 10,000 seagulls and egrets gather here, which can be said to be the location of the animal world in China. That is, from then on, Sun Xian had the inspiration to shoot a documentary about pure wild birds. May 2, 2002. Sun Xian began to shoot and create with two like-minded friends on this island without food, water and electricity, but what he didn't expect was that the shooting time was getting longer and longer. The plan has also changed from documentary to bird film: I didn't expect the shooting process to be so thrilling: I didn't expect the film to be so successful. ...
Two years after graduating from high school, Sun Xian was admitted to Qufu Normal University to study oil painting for several years: Wang Jiantao worked as a farmer, driver and repairman. Then I went to Jinan Radio and Television College to study photography for two years. After graduating from high school, Hui Yu worked directly with Sun Xian's apprentice as an artist. None of them came from film classes, but as cinema workers, they have watched thousands of movies for many years, which is the only and best source of nutrition.
Bird is not a competent actor and never listens to the director's arrangement. The story of birds must be carefully observed and expressed in camera language. This kind of original ecological film is unimaginable. A film takes a few seconds, sometimes it takes half a month to occupy three seats. The whole film was edited for 80 minutes, but the shooting time exceeded 400 hours, which took 7 years to shoot.
Shooting is difficult, but what is more difficult is the lack of funds. The initial start-up capital is that they take out their savings. The three people invested more than 3 million yuan, and they couldn't even eat a hot meal in the most difficult time. In the winter of 2004, filming almost put three people in a desperate situation. At this time, three "grassroots" filmmakers filmed hundreds of hours of material, but how to become a work? They fell into chaos.
After reading their materials, the film playwright Yuan suggested making a film about birds. Making a movie is only the first step. For Sun Xian and his team, every link is an insurmountable mountain, including script writing, editing, dubbing, music, production and distribution. After hitting a wall many times, Sun Xianping, who had never studied film production, became a director for the first time and achieved success in his exploration with his companions. Read more than 400 hours of materials repeatedly every day. According to the materials, with the script, the growth path of a small black-tailed gull gradually took shape. The film was finally named "Heaven-sent". Some people say that the name "Tianci" is too common, but Sun Xian didn't change it in the end. Because during the filming. Everyone misses death several times, which is a godsend: the black-tailed gull photographed is also a godsend; And the people who helped them were all godsend. Therefore, the name "Tianci" can best convey the theme he wants to express.
200865438+1October 24th. This film is licensed by the National Film Bureau. Xu Yong, who has a reputation as a talented woman in the film and television industry, voiced the film "Godsend" with friendship, and TanJing, a young singer, sang the theme song for the film. On June 65438+1October 65438+March 2009, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television issued a distribution license to Tianci.
At this point, Sun Xian, regarded as a "madman" by his friends, took his film crew to realize his dream step by step. Seven years of hard shooting is not all hard and bitter. Long-term shooting has made them gradually enter the life of birds. Those touching pictures shook their hearts and brought them great happiness! Encouraged by the tenacious life of birds, all the irritability disappeared at once. When she finally left the island, Huiyu said to Sun Xian, "If you want to shoot birds in your next life, then I will be a bird and fly as you want ..."
The news that the film won the prize spread to China, which surprised many people who didn't like the film. After all, it is a story far from the hot topics in society. The three people who filmed "Heaven-sent" are not artists or scientists, but just a group of ordinary people and artists from several cinemas. But they did it. Perhaps the more ordinary people feel this inner strength, especially after it is awakened by the black-tailed gull on the sea donkey island.
Regarding the original intention of shooting, Sun Xian said: "In fact, the reason is very simple, that is, it stems from the simple love for birds. Seven years of zero-distance integration into the world of black-tailed gulls has enabled us to regain our due respect for life and nature. Life is equal, life has dignity, and even every grass and tree should be respected. I just want to tell a story about the growth of life and tell the story in the bird world to more people. "
20111October 2 1, Godsend was released nationwide. A strong little gift has touched too many people's hearts.
With the dream of flying, with difficulties that ordinary people can't imagine, with extraordinary perseverance. After seven years of grinding a sword, a touching film was finally born in the hands of three little people, creating a miracle in the history of film. Their stories are as touching, admirable, enviable and even more respectable as "God-given". As long as you persist, little people will achieve great miracles in life.

He stood under the basketball stand and took the ball from his classmates. He missed. When he jumped up and grabbed the rebound, he found that the original big basketball had turned into a small black spot and the world became dark.

The past is the best guide for the future.
one
In the first grade of primary school, he chased flies everywhere, put them into matchboxes, filled them with boxes and handed them to the class teacher. This is the only effort that six-year-old Liu Xiangcheng can make for his situation-fighting for the red scarf more vigorously than others. He is a revolutionary child in the primary and secondary schools in Gubei, Fuzhou Military Region. He is a descendant of the big landlord. "I am' all red and a little black'."
In the fourth grade of primary school, he was brought to Hong Kong by his father who worked in Ta Kung Pao. The school specially held a ceremony on the playground to let him wear a red scarf to Hong Kong. "So when I arrived in Hong Kong, I became' all black and a little red'."
1976 returned to China as a reporter for the American times. Cantonese people wearing black veil were silent to him, but from their bodies and eyes, he immediately felt "unusual peace", which is something that only happens when people move from one realm to another-a state of "knowing".
Three years later, when he was walking in Dalian University of Technology in the morning, he walked to a statue and saw a young man skating on roller skates. He took this photo because this moment expressed what he expected-"a feeling of great relief and facing an uncertain future."
two
I asked him how the enlightenment of an industry started, and he said there was a word called "bubble". I can't live without this.
During his internship in Life magazine, he worked as an intern for the famous photographer Keane Milly for nine months. At that time, the old man was 72 years old. "For nine months, he never talked about technical problems." It's just that every evening, the old man would stick his own paintings on the wall, watch them with him and tell him, "This one is good, that one is not good."
Why? Because "interpreting events is more important than grasping them".
Over time, people in magazines will tell him that Liu Xiangcheng went to India, lived there for four years, went on a pilgrimage and had tea with them. Every time I go out to work, I have to box all my luggage and equipment and transport them to another country where my children go to school. This is how the photo was taken.
He said that there is less leisure in China culture now. I understand what he means, regardless of utility, there is less carefree fun. Without this, the development of culture will not be rich. He said that people nowadays "travel represents creativity", and staying in Italy or the seaside is leisure. "They are busy with leisure all day. How can they know what leisure is?"
three
Talking about what he is doing now is somewhat unexpected to me. He put a lot of energy into editing historical pictures.
He saw the cultural rift in China. "We lack a standard * * *. We talk about the same thing in Beijing and also in Gansu, Fujian and Guangdong. Can it be the same concept, the same thing? Not now, because it hasn't developed to this extent, and everyone is shouting slogans, hoping that people can hear their voices. This is unacceptable, and it is not the performance of a cultured country. "
Taking the Lotus Award as an example, he said that in the first round, as long as one judge raised his hand to take photos, he could enter the next round, in the second round, three people raised their hands, and in the third round, five people raised their hands, and the debate began in the last round. "Because the neck is red. That doesn't matter, because there is a knowledge base before, there is no need to fight for basic standards, unlike in China. "
Without a single standard, people will be at a loss in this kind of hole before they can establish * * * knowledge.
Liu Xiangcheng has a lot of reflections on China's extremism since modern times. He summed up the reason why he could not keep his reason and balance: "To have an open mind, we must face up to and reflect on our own history as objectively and accurately as possible, because history is our common memory. How China treats its own history will affect the future development of China. This is too important. "
He said, "I am 60 years old and can't go to war any more, but I need someone like me to sort out history and things like that." Like peeling onions, peel them slowly, the process is displayed layer by layer, and the conclusion is completely open. "
He said, "The past is the best guide for the future."
four
In the early 1990s, he saw the preface written by Pearl Buck for Lin Yutang's book in a second-hand bookstore in Paris, and said, "I often open that book about China and close it in disappointment, because there are many weak exaggerations in it. People enthusiastically defend a country that needs no excuses. "
Liu Xiangcheng used a photo to illustrate what China was like in his mind. 1980, the college entrance examination resumed soon, and many people didn't have enough lights at home at night. In order to take the college entrance examination, they went to study under the street lamp in Tiananmen Square. He saw these girls, "I want to level the position with the students, so I can only shoot on the ground." I was lying in front of this girl, lying on the ground, pressing the B shutter, and I had no way of knowing how much exposure I wanted. I counted one, two, three, four in my mind, and counted it for 25 times before I let go. Interestingly, after counting for so long, they didn't move at all. You know, if they move, the picture will be empty. "
This is his definition: "What are China people? China people can survive 25 sports in 33 years. "
Like Lin Yutang in the 1930s, he chose honesty to show his respect. "Maybe I love my country too, but I'm careful not to let them know. Because a person may wear patriotic clothes and rags all his life and March in the city, not only at home but also abroad to show off himself. I can be honest, because unlike these patriots, I am not ashamed of my country. I can tell the world all her troubles, because I have not lost hope. China is much greater than her little patriots, and she doesn't need them to paint her face. She will return to stability again, as she has always done. "
He said: "China is constantly changing, so be patient."
