It is said that heroes don't ask where they come from, and the story of "poor students" is still being staged in today's society.
Now it has not been long since the end of the college entrance examination, and an old news of the college entrance examination seven years ago rushed to the hot search again, in which the protagonist Pang Zhongwang appeared in front of everyone with a new identity, which makes people wonder, how is he doing today, seven years later?
"Hello everyone, I'm Pang Zhongwang." In the 2017 college entrance examination season, the name Pang Zhongwang lit up in front of the camera of "Face to Face", and since then, his story has also been well-known to everyone.
In the college entrance examination that year, Pang Zhongwang successfully won the top prize in science in Cangzhou, Hebei Province with a high score of 744 points in science, and became a student of Tsinghua University. This made him the object of heated discussion all of a sudden, to be able to cultivate such an excellent student, the conditions and educational environment at home should be very good, right?
But what he didn't expect was that Pang Zhongwang's family background was not even ordinary, his father had schizophrenia, and his mother was disabled.
This meant that he had to take care of his father and mother at home, while also completing his own education.
What's even more tragic is that Pang Zhongwang was diagnosed with heart disease when he was five years old, and in order to treat him, his mother borrowed money from around in a wheelchair, and the family's economy has been unable to make ends meet.
But Pang Zhongwang is very sensible, and after the operation, he began to pick up waste to subsidize the family, and he worked for six years.
When he was in junior high school, his living expenses were only 20 yuan a week, and he always saved money and gave the money to his mother.
It was under such circumstances that Pang Zhongwang was admitted to Tsinghua University with his own efforts and beliefs, and realized the dream of a poor child to leap into the class.
At that time, he was also interviewed by the TV station, but now that seven years have passed, how is Pang Zhongwang doing?
After being admitted to university, Pang Zhongwang did not become extravagant, he still used his vacation time as a tutor to support his family and take care of his parents, but worked harder than in high school.
But unfortunately, his mother passed away, and although life was full of twists and turns, Pang Zhongwang did not lose confidence because of this.
He said with a smile: "My name means 'living up to expectations', and I was scared that I had failed my parents' expectations of me. ”
In fact, for Pang Zhongwang, although her mother is disabled and bedridden, her optimism has always been infectious and affects herself.
Pang Zhongwang once said: "My mother laughs every day, why should I not be happy?" ”
Seven years later, Pang Zhongwang's identity at this time has changed to a doctor from Tsinghua University.
He has published many SCI papers, and even obtained national invention patents, truly completing the closed loop of knowledge changing destiny.
In addition, Pang Zhongwang also joined the volunteer teaching program and went to Shandong and other places to impart knowledge to children. Pang Zhongwang said that what makes him proud is not only his achievements in scientific research, but also that he has always believed that the future is in his own hands, and there are many things worth looking forward to.
Pang Zhongwang is using his personal experience to tell everyone that his background is not good, so what? As long as you have dreams and drive, you can also break through.
It's the annual college entrance examination season again, and the story of Pang Zhongwang is once again mentioned by everyone, and every poor student hopes to be like him, use knowledge to change their destiny, and use the college entrance examination as a stepping stone to knock on the door to the world.
Nowadays, there are more and more discussions about "poor students", and people think that "poor students" seem to have really disappeared, and their thirst for knowledge has been abandoned.
While most voices in society are praise and admiration, there are also some different voices and concerns.
For example, some people think that poor students may be inferior to others in some aspects, and feel that the media always reports on how poor students are inspiring, and that the society takes special care of poor students, which may make other people who also need help feel unfair.
There are also people who feel that the success stories of poor students are a bit too simplistic, as if only if they are admitted to a good university can they be considered successful, but in fact, there can be many kinds of success.
But seven years later, Pang Zhongwang stood up and told us that this was not the case.
He showed us the power of knowledge and made us believe that no matter what our background, as long as we keep working hard, our destiny will eventually be rewritten.
The journey continues, and so does the journey for each of us.
Let's look forward to that more brilliant future together, because the future belongs to every brave person!
