Is it better to accompany the middle school attached to the Central Conservatory of Music or to board?

On June 1 day, the middle school attached to the Central Conservatory of Music announced the 20 12 enrollment list. Wang Xiubao, a boy from Qingdao 13, is one of the freshmen majoring in oboe in Grade One and will enter school in September. This year, more than 1 0,000 children applied for the middle school attached to the Central Conservatory of Music, and less than 200 people were finally admitted. Wang Xiubao, who started to learn the piano at the age of four and a half, is undoubtedly one of the lucky ones. However, in an interview with reporters, he recalled the experience of studying in Beijing for a year since last June. His father Wang Jian used the words "collapse", "cruelty" and "final position" many times to describe it. Repeated peeling, bleeding lips, bruises left by the falling of a rolling pin on his legs, rented a bungalow in rural Hebei with an area of 10 square meter ... * * * paved the way for Wang Xiubao to enjoy music.

Editor's note: Accompanying reading is not a strange word for many parents. Behind every child who studies music in Qingdao, there are parents who are eager to succeed. For the sake of their children's artistic career, they even quit their jobs to accompany their children to study in Beijing and Shanghai, rented a small house, took care of their children's food and clothing, gave up their careers, cut off their children's cultural classes, and put their children's future on a rugged music road. Recently, we fixed our eyes on this group and listened to their stories about accompanying reading life.

Switch from playing piano to playing oboe.

Wang Xiubao's mother Liu Wei is a music teacher in Qingdao No.47 Middle School. Wang Xiubao has been learning piano with his mother since he was four and a half years old. He has a good sense of music and has made rapid progress. Before the age of eight, he successfully passed the piano major of China Conservatory of Music and China Musicians Association. Wang Jian, Wang Xiubao's father, still clearly remembers: "He is the youngest candidate who passed the piano exam on 10, and took the exam with him.

At the age of 8, Wang Xiubao also held a piano solo concert in Sunshine Department Store. Besides piano, Wang Xiubao told reporters that he can also play electronic organ, drum set, guitar, piano and other musical instruments. 10 years old, his parents decided to let him switch from learning piano to oboe. "Her mother has been teaching for many years and found that there are too many children learning piano and violin, and the competition is fierce, while the oboe is unpopular, so there are more opportunities for both study and employment." Wang Xiubao told reporters: "I prefer oboe. I think its timbre is very good, very pleasant to listen to, and it is very fulfilling to play. "

Now, Wang Jian is proud of the couple's original decision. This year, the middle school attached to the Central Conservatory of Music enrolled more than 1 000 students nationwide, and less than 200 students were admitted. Compared with piano and violin, the competition of oboe is the mildest. Xiubao, Rainbow, of the four students who studied for the exam with the oboe teacher of the Central Conservatory of Music, only one was eliminated.

From running to accompanying reading:

Living in rural Hebei saves money.

Wang Xiubao studied under Wang, the oboe player of Qingdao Symphony Orchestra, and Nie, the chairman of Shandong Wind Musicians Association and a professor of Shandong Art Institute, from 20 10. Wang Jian takes his son to Jinan to study once every two weeks. "From the next semester of the fifth grade, the baby only has three main courses: foreign language, mathematics and Chinese, and the rest of the time is music training at home." Wang Jian said that going to Jinan is usually Saturday or Sunday. In order to save money, the two will catch an "express train" leaving Qingdao at 5 am. Adult tickets only need 60 yuan, which is less than half of the train fare.

Wang Jian said frankly, not to mention children, even adults, it is very painful to get up at 4 am to catch the train, especially in winter, and they have to wrap their children like dumplings. "Fortunately, the child is very obedient and has no complaints. Teacher Nie also likes him very much. He often makes his baby a role model for the college students he teaches. " The recognition of the teacher made Wang Jian and his wife strengthen their children's belief in taking the road of music major.

20 1 1 In February, Nie contacted them to bring their children to Beijing and wanted to apply for the middle school attached to the Central Conservatory of Music. However, after listening to the baby's performance, the teacher thinks that there is still a certain gap between the level and the admission criteria. Even if you apply for the exam, there is little hope. After several discussions, Wang Jian and his wife decided to let their children study in Beijing for one year. Wang Jian also quit his job in a media in the island city and went to Beijing to accompany him. "Among the children who study with my baby, two are from Shenzhen, and two are from Taizhou, Zhejiang. They are all well-off, and the rented houses are all over 2500 yuan per month. I rented a house of 10 square meters in Yanjiao Town, sanhe city, Langfang, Hebei, facing north. When the baby sleeps in a single bed, I will make the floor. " When the reporter asked about the rent, he said, "Because it's a friend's house, give it to me.

800 yuan 45 minutes:

The teacher will not give me another minute.

Wang Xiubao spent a lot of money on primary school musicians, and Wang Jian and his wife relied on their parents' help on weekdays. After Wang Jian resigned, he basically relied on his wife's monthly income of several thousand yuan and his previous savings to support his accompanying study life in Beijing. Wang Jian must also be frugal in everything. In addition to renting a remote house, Wang Jian often goes back and forth for an hour on weekdays to buy food at a place called "Palace Market". "Similar to Qingdao Fushun Road Wholesale Market, the price of vegetables can be cheaper." Wang Jian said that during their year in Beijing, they only ate out twice, once on Wang Xiubao's birthday and once on his birthday. "We had a buffet on the baby's birthday, and the baby's birthday was half price." In order to make children eat well, Wang Jian quickly became a master in the kitchen within one year. "I know all about Zhajiang Noodles, fried dough sticks, steamed stuffed buns, Huimian Noodles, noodles with gravy, fried dumplings and sesame cakes."

Although he tries his best to be frugal in life, the children still can't save money for their studies. Wang Jian is very grateful to Nie Lijia: "He likes that the baby is a good prospect, and considering the situation of our family, he only takes 150 yuan for one class, far exceeding his post. In Beijing, the teachers saw more good students. After 45 minutes of class for 800 yuan, I don't need to discuss it. I'm early. I didn't open the door. No matter how cold it is, I have to wait outside with the children. On entering the door, the teacher began to look at his watch. I will finish class when I arrive, and I won't add a minute. " From the place where Wang Jian lives to the teacher's home near the Asian Games Village in Beijing, Wang Jian and his children need to take a long-distance bus first, then transfer to the subway, and then walk to the teacher's home. 15 minutes, and the one-way trip takes two and a half hours. "Once we were late 10 minutes, and the teacher only dismissed the class for 35 minutes, and then I never dared to be late again. 10 minutes.

In addition to 800 yuan's professional classes twice a week, we also have solfeggio lessons twice a week, and one class, 500 yuan, "The baby has a good piano foundation, which saves us a lot of money." Even so, it took more than 90,000 yuan to stay in Beijing for one year. Wang Jian said that many parents take their children to Beijing to study for two years, which costs 200,000 to 300,000 yuan.

After a year of hard training:

Peeping at comics was hit.

Wang Xiubao's talent and obedience make Wang Jian feel gratified, but even such a good boy is not so easy to prepare for the exam in Beijing. In the year since1/kloc-0 officially moved into Beijing in June, the father and son didn't even go back to Qingdao for the New Year, and they cut off contact with all their friends, relatives and classmates. There was no TV and other entertainment in the rental house.

At most, Wang Xiubao practices oboe for eight or nine hours every day. When playing oboe, he must stand and breathe with his abdomen. It is conceivable that his body is tired and his bare lips can't stand it. His mouth often sticks to the whistle, and it bleeds when it is taken off. On weekdays, he plays the electronic organ for a while or listens to the world famous oboe, even if Wang Xiubao has a rest.

Wang Jian said that Wang Xiubao also has rebellious mentality and sometimes doesn't want to practice, but he never said anything like "I don't practice". "His mother loves her children very much. When she left, she brought him Tom and Jerry's CDs, which he sometimes watches at night after practicing all day. Later, when I came back from shopping, I accidentally found that the DVD player was hot, so I pretended to go out to buy food. In fact, I came back soon and caught him watching Tom and Jerry twice. " Wang Jian said that the second time he hit Wang Xiubao with a rolling pin, his leg was bruised. "Although I feel sorry for my children, the competition at the last stop was too cruel. I am also a proud person. All my relatives know that we went to Beijing. What if it fails? " Wang Xiubao cried at that time, but when the reporter asked him if he was angry with his father at that time, Wang Xiubao said, "No, I just didn't get used to it, but I got better later." Wang Jian said that Wang Xiubao missed his mother, heard him talk in his sleep at night and called his mother.

In September this year, Wang Xiubao will enter the first grade of the middle school attached to the Central Conservatory of Music and start a new study and life. Wang Jian said that considering the child is too young, he will continue to accompany him to Beijing, at least until he graduates from the third grade. For the future, Wang Xiubao also has his own yearning: "I hope to compose music in the future, and I like it very much. I was able to play some melodies by myself when I was very young. "
