Because of his ideal, he stuck to his original intention, endured loneliness, persisted in self-study English for ten years, passed the national level examination, obtained high TOEFL scores, and did many things that college students cannot do. Zhang Liyong, who has been working in the cafeteria of Tsinghua University for 8 years, scored 630 on the TOEFL test, passed CET-4 and CET-6 in English, and obtained an undergraduate diploma from Peking University. He was named by the Communist Youth League Central Committee as one of the top ten outstanding young learners in the country and became a member of the Aviation Industry Press's "3-Guide Self-Study Series" 》Spokesperson of Tsinghua University Temporary Worker, Integrating into the Campus Dream Zhang Liyong went out to work 11 years ago due to family poverty, but during his time outside, he never gave up the idea of ??studying and learning skills. He said that his earliest admiration for reading came from an uncle in the village when he was a child. My uncle studied as a graduate student at Renmin University of China and stayed in Beijing to work after graduation. A seed of reading fell into the heart of Zhang Liyong. Reading good books, getting into college, and letting his family live a good life have become his biggest wishes. In 1993, Zhang Liyong dropped out of school to work in Guangzhou to earn money to pay off his family's debts. In 1996, under the introduction of his uncle, he came to Beijing and went directly to the Tsinghua Canteen to work as a temporary worker selling steamed buns. When he first entered Tsinghua Garden, he was like Grandma Liu who had just entered the Grand View Garden, looking up at everything in Tsinghua Garden like a pilgrim. There are many good lectures every day in Tsinghua University. After the evening shift, Zhang Liyong always rushes to the classroom to listen to the lectures of the masters. Because the off-duty time is always after 8:00 pm, Zhang Liyong could only stand and listen to the end of many lectures. But standing in the last row of the classroom, looking at the characters not far away who could only be seen and heard in books and TV in the past, are now giving lectures not far away from him, Zhang Liyong's heart is surging. It turns out that the characters he imagined Happiness can be so close! From now on, during his time at Tsinghua University, Zhang Liyong would attend lectures whenever he had the opportunity. In lecture after lecture, he absorbed the student spirit of Tsinghua University and integrated his life as an ordinary chef and migrant worker into the rich campus life of Tsinghua University. Study hard and build your destiny. After working at Tsinghua University for a period of time, Zhang Liyong did not just revel in the beautiful environment of Tsinghua University after he became familiar with and stabilized his job. He decided to use his interest in English as a breakthrough in learning. He began to make a "cruel" schedule: he must get up at 6 a.m.; run from 6:15 to 6:30; memorize English from 6:30 to 7:00; brush his teeth and wash his face from 7 to 7:15; 7:15 - Go to work at 7:30; limit lunch time to 8 minutes, and memorize English in the remaining 7 minutes; listen to English radio at 1 o'clock at noon; get off work at 8 o'clock in the evening, and study English until 12 o'clock; late at night from 12:45 to 1 o'clock Listen to the English radio at 15 minutes. In order to avoid being unable to get up in the morning, Zhang Liyong even bought two or three small alarm clocks that would wake him up every time it came up, even if he couldn't remember. Zhang Liyong not only studies English diligently by himself, but also actively participates in the English Association of Tsinghua University. The English Association of Tsinghua University is a student association, but as a chef at Tsinghua University, he also has a membership card with the words "VIP" in the place where he works. ” (very important person). In addition to association activities, Zhang Liyong also visited the English corner on campus many times. He heard from his classmates in the English corner that to learn English, you must open your mouth to speak, just like brushing your teeth. You have to open your mouth before brushing your teeth, so he doesn’t care whether his words are good or bad. They all spoke out boldly. For this reason, he also opened an English window in the canteen of Tsinghua University for about a year, speaking English while selling food. After several years of study and speaking practice, Zhang Liyong can speak English very fluently, and can not only communicate with Chinese students, but also with many foreign friends. Despite this, Zhang Liyong was not satisfied. He also decided to use nationally regulated exams to test his learning.

So, he decided to apply for the CET-4 and CET-6 exams. He wanted to obtain an authoritative certification, not just a personal feeling. From 2000 to 2001, for more than a year, he successively took the National English Test Band 4 and Band 6, passing both with a score of more than 80 points, and then took the TOEFL. Unexpectedly: TOEFL I scored 670, but he actually scored 630. For a time, he became a sensation at Tsinghua University. On Shuimu Tsinghua's BBS, the topic about Zhang Liyong became a hot topic. Someone left such a post on the BBS: "Tsinghua is still Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Shaolin has ' Sweeping Monk: "We have a 'Steamed Bun God' at Tsinghua University, and they are all equally astonishing." Received numerous accolades and served the society. One stone stirred up waves, and the story about Zhang Liyong spread like wildfire in the online forums of major universities. Gradually, the media began to pay attention to Zhang Liyong; gradually, all walks of life began to know Zhang Liyong; in October 2004, the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League awarded Zhang Liyong the "Chinese Youth Learning and Talent Award", and he was hailed as one of the top ten talents in the country established by the Central Committee of the Youth League. One of the outstanding young scholars, he has also been interviewed and reported by CCTV's "Son of the East", "Face to Face", "News Hall" and other influential columns and more than 100 media. Zhang Liyong, from a little-known little chef to a news figure; from an ordinary working youth to a self-taught young man. He became famous, but as he was nearly thirty years old, he didn't care about the feeling of being a celebrity. He never wanted to be famous. He was just unwilling to work a mediocre job and accidentally became a celebrity. He jokingly said "Being famous" is regarded as a by-product of one's own hard work and diligence. However, he is very willing to use his hard-working self-study spirit to encourage those who need his help. He started from small things. At first, he earnestly answered letters or phone calls from those who asked him for advice on how to learn English. Later, he also worked as an English tutor for some students who came to him, and used his free time to help them learn English. He also used his own deeds to educate two undergraduate students. The two students had good family conditions but did not like to learn English. Zhang Liyong talked with them for a whole night, told them his own methods and spirit of learning English, and encouraged them. They prepare well for the grade exam in two months. It is said that both students later recommended themselves to graduate students. A student from Beijing Institute of Technology came to see Zhang Liyong after seeing his story. He said to him: "Liyong, I used to be too playful, but I lacked your spirit." Zhang Liyong began to understand: not only can he learn English well, gain grades and fame, but also be able to use: "Learn to change your destiny, strive to achieve life." "The spirit of helping those in need is really something that makes him feel even more proud. In addition to doing his job well, he began to devote himself more to other social work. He once used his summer vacation to provide English training for the waiters at the Tsinghua University Food Center. These waiters were all migrant workers from all over the country. Some of them had 26 employees in a row. I haven't seen any letters. After a period of training by Zhang Liyong, they were able to speak some relatively simple dialogues, and some of them spoke quite well. When Zhang Liyong saw "Sprite", "Seven-Up", and "What would you like to drink?" coming out of their mouths in English, he felt a small sense of accomplishment, as happy as if he had made progress in his studies. He is also busy using his rest days and even evening time after get off work to give speeches to some units. Zhang Liyong will feel a sense of pressure when giving a speech at a university, because most of the people standing on the podium are successful people and famous scholars, and he is just a cafeteria chef, so he will naturally feel a little scared standing in the lecture hall. However, the students listened with gusto, and Zhang Liyong saw recognition and respect in the eyes of the students. He began to talk about his study experience and experience seriously. After the speech, he always won sincere and lasting applause. There were many more after the meeting. People gathered around him to sign autographs, and he never dared to neglect them, even if his hands were a little sore after signing. He believes: As long as they can get motivation, confidence and courage, I will do anything for them, and do anything for those who need help and those who need encouragement
