I first saw his name on the Internet-DJI. Com, which seems to be the first media to report this matter. Since then, various media have flocked, including CCTV5 and Tencent Sports. Now enter his name in Baidu, and there are more than 2700 related information. Why did his deeds become popular? Because his deeds are touching and worth learning from each of us. To tell the truth, he and I live in the same campus. If I didn't watch the news, I don't know. As his junior, I am a little ashamed! I only blame myself for not liking basketball at ordinary times, seldom going to the basketball court and not knowing the existence of this "master". Now that we know, we should carry forward his spirit, which is a good example for our college students. Be sure to see him next time you pass the basketball court.
I just read his interview materials and learned that he has no strong will and it is difficult to have everything he has now. And this kind of spirit is exactly what we ordinary college students lack. This further proves the truth: where there is a will, there is a way! Only you want to do it, you can't do it yourself!
Like idol Yao Ming.
Little Bill Han Qu Shitao turned to make a layup and shouted a voice. "This ball is so beautiful. If Yao Ming learns, he may win the championship. " Han Xiao joked that he was a teammate and good friend of Qu Shitao, an inspirational emperor who recently played basketball with crutches on the Internet. On the basketball court in the sunshine, Xiao Qu (Shi Tao) smiles with a cane, which is very similar to the expression of Yao Ming's breakthrough in the second round of the 2009 NBA (Weibo) playoffs.
If you want to be a great man in Sri Lanka, you must first suffer their minds and work hard for their bones and muscles. Xiao Qu, who is only 24 years old this year, said that he really understood the true meaning of this sentence, although the price paid was really painful. At the age of 3, Xiao Qu, who was lively and active, accidentally put her leg into the elevator while building a house at home and lost her right leg. From then on, the young ditty almost lost the opportunity to play and exercise equally with his friends until he met basketball.
"I started watching the game between Yao Ming and the Rockets in 2004. I was deeply attracted by this big man from China. He accomplished what many people thought impossible. For example, can China people play the NBA, and can China people become NBA stars? He is so big, but so flexible, so accurate and so ruthless. I have been paying attention to him since 2004, including his recovery after injury and injury. " Xiao Qu told everyone that Yao Ming was his idol, but what he didn't tell reporters was that Yao Ming was actually himself in his mind.
Play like Yao Ming, and work as hard as Yao Ming. Xiaoqu silently said to himself in his mind.
The physical disability made Xiao Qu feel the pain in his mind when he was an adult. At this critical stage from junior high school to senior high school, Xiaoqu can't devote all her energy to her study. In that year's college entrance examination, Xiaoqu was only admitted to junior college. Some shy people don't like to express this. "I don't want to think about the past, but it is also a stage of growth." But Xiao Qu, who is now a graduate student of East China Institute of Technology, has enough confidence to face the past, and the best response is to be admitted to graduate school.
This is also Xiao Qu's best reward for his mother. Mom is always the softest place in Xiaoqu's heart. Because of Xiaoqu's injury, the mother who is not rich has to bear a heavier economic burden. The mother has been worried about her son's health until Xiaoqu began to learn to play basketball. The better he played, the stronger he played, the more famous he became, and the more calm his mother felt. Yesterday was a very busy day for Xiaoqu. At the same time, due to interviews with many media, when some proud Xiaoqu called her mother at night, her mother hung up in three sentences, which made Xiaoqu laugh and cry: "Don't be too tired, I won't say much. Now I'm going to work. "
It is precisely because of such a strong mother that Xiao Qu did not fall down in the face of difficulties, but chose to live stronger and change her life by her own efforts. Although the ditty with artificial limbs is not much different from the movements of friends, and the walking speed is similar at ordinary times, it will still feel pain after a long time. The distance between his dormitory and the laboratory is about 15 minutes, and Xiao Qu usually needs to walk for at least 20 minutes. If you have a car, Xiaoqu's actions will be much more convenient, and owning a car of his own is also a big dream of Xiaoqu, and whether his physical condition can get a driver's license is the biggest suspense in his heart.
When the author told Xiao Qu that he could take an automatic driver's license (the state stipulates that if the right lower limb and both lower limbs are missing or lose motor function but can take care of themselves, he can apply for a motor vehicle driver's license for a small automatic passenger car for the disabled), Xiao Qu smiled again, this time full of longing for the future. "Automatic gears don't need feet, and both hands can drive longer. Even if it doesn't work, with your education and level, it is not a big problem to earn some money to raise a driver. " Xiao Qu's friends are laughing at the dinner table.
There is more than basketball in Xiaoqu's world, but basketball has given him a strong body and confidence in the future. "I am very grateful to basketball. It taught me how to face life and learn to be confident. What is even more rare is that he has made so many friends and given me so much warmth. "
Besides playing like Yao Ming and working as hard as Yao Ming, I also hope to be as successful as Yao Ming. Xiaoqu secretly dreamed about it, afraid to tell others, but the future can be expected.
Tencent Sports: How did you like playing basketball?
Qu Shitao: I should still be in junior high school. At that time, I watched my classmates go to physical education class to play basketball, so did I. Although it is inconvenient to move, I am still very excited to see the basketball crossing the net and hear the sound of "brushing". From then on, I can't live without basketball.
Tencent Sports: Why do you insist on choosing basketball in so many sports?
Qu Shitao: I liked it at first. Later, when I went to high school, I began to learn more about basketball, such as Yao Ming, NBA and so on. These factors make my feelings with basketball deeper and deeper.
Tencent Sports: What unforgettable basketball experience do you have?
Qu Shitao: Quite a lot. Compared with ordinary people, I will encounter more problems in the process of playing basketball. For example, one foot has to bear the strength of two feet. Because of crutches, the skin of the arm will be injured by excessive friction. I remember one time when I was graduating from senior three. I was playing basketball because I didn't pay attention. My crutch was broken and I had a bad fall. My right hand (Qu Shitao uses this hand to lean on crutches) is completely open, and I can see a little bone. Fortunately, my classmates took good care of me at that time, and they immediately sent me to the hospital for treatment, but I never mentioned this to my mother.
Tencent Sports: Do you often get hurt playing basketball?
Qu Shitao: Indeed, my foot was hurt a lot. I remember one time, I had blisters on my feet while playing ball games, and I pricked them with a needle. Later, it hurt a little when I walked, but it didn't hurt when I returned to the basketball court. So I kept playing. Going back to the dormitory at night, I saw another blister at the place where the needle was inserted. I remember there were three layers of blisters, and I waited until the blisters were completely cured before returning to the court.
Tencent Sports: What did frequent injuries bring to your spirit?
Qu Shitao: Although I am often injured, basketball makes me stronger, more confident and more cheerful. When I feel that my personality has changed, I will find that I will love basketball more, so I will be more confident on the basketball court and even make my body stronger. These are all the gains that basketball has brought me.
I also want to play ball like a normal person.
Tencent Sports: See that you usually use a stretcher instead of a prosthesis. How long can such a stretcher support you?
Qu Shitao: Actually speaking of my crutches, I used to use wooden crutches. Because I was injured while playing, I have replaced it with a steel crutch. I feel much stronger than before. Like ordinary crutches, you can't play basketball, because it is an intense sport after all. So now, after using the steel crutches, I think it will take me almost a long time to change my sneakers with my classmates, or it may be because I have exercised myself, so I have never changed my crutches.
Tencent Sports: Do you know that there is a South African oscar pistorius named Oscar Pisto, who is still taking part in the Olympic Games with a prosthetic leg? Have you ever thought that one day you will throw away your crutches and play ball with your classmates with your prosthetic legs?
Qu Shitao: To tell you the truth, I really thought about it, but it never came true, because I can't adapt to prosthetic limbs at present, and my control is not good enough. Moreover, because prosthetic limbs are expensive, the conditions at home don't mean that I can change my prosthetic limbs casually for playing basketball, so I hope that one day I can change my prosthetic limbs through my own efforts and play basketball like a normal person.
Tencent Sports: Are you still playing a five-to-five game with your classmates?
Qu Shitao: I play less now because of the pressure of the course. I often played with my classmates when I was an undergraduate in high school.
It's hard to simply change hands.
Tencent Sports: Sometimes when you see that other students can easily complete some actions with their feet on the court, will there be some changes in your heart?
Qu Shitao: Give me the simplest example. I can't finish the simple action of changing hands, because my right hand must always be on crutches, so when I see other students can exercise healthily on the basketball court, I really envy them. Some things I can get by redoubling my efforts, such as shooting, hooking and rebounding, which I can strengthen through practice, but some things I can't achieve by redoubling my efforts can only be envied.
Tencent Sports: Speaking of basketball practice, do you have to work harder than ordinary people when you practice?
Qu Shitao: Yes, yes, because it is really inconvenient to play with crutches, but after playing for so many years, looking back, I really paid more than ordinary people, but my obsession and obsession with basketball have kept me going until now. When I was in high school, I kept shooting around the three-second zone in order to practice shooting. I didn't change the next point until I threw a certain number of points, but when I shot, my cane might fall to the ground at any time, so I had to hold it hard, so my other hand might not be able to lift.
Tencent Sports: Did physical education class choose basketball after you entered the university?
Qu Shitao: My crutches are a little short now. I can't walk far with crutches. Because the basketball hall is too far from the dormitory, I can't help it. If it were closer, I would definitely choose.
Tencent Sports: Did you choose some other sports after you entered the university?
Qu Shitao: There must be a choice. When I was a graduate student, I mainly played table tennis, badminton and swimming. Table tennis is my favorite sport since I was a child. Badminton was recently learned, and I should like swimming very much, but the swimming pool can only be opened in summer, so I can't continue now.
Tencent Sports: Actually, which sport do you like better than basketball?
Qu Shitao: (laughs) I really don't know. I feel better after playing badminton for a while. Maybe it's because I didn't learn it thoroughly. Basketball is still relatively easy.
Speaking of NBA, it's all about Yao Ming.
Tencent Sports: Do you usually pay attention to NBA?
Qu Shitao: I often watch NBA online, and I will get up to watch live games whenever I have time, such as CCTV and Tencent.
Tencent Sports: So when did you start to pay attention?
Qu Shitao: I think I'm a sophomore, like in 2004.
Tencent Sports: It was just the time when Yao Ming joined the NBA and the Rockets got attention in China?
Qu Shitao: Actually, my idol is Yao Ming. I like his playing style and spirit very much. McGrady is very elegant to me.
Tencent Sports: What was the most impressive game in Yao Ming?
Qu Shitao: Yes, it should be the playoff of the 2008-09 season when the Rockets beat the Lakers. After Yao Ming was injured in that game, back in the game led the team to victory. I actually know it's hard to get hurt on the basketball court, but his spirit of insisting on coming back to fight has a deep influence on me. He is so old and has been playing basketball with so many injuries. I shouldn't give up like him.
Tencent Sports: Have you seen the live broadcast in Yao Ming?
Qu Shitao: This is really my long-cherished wish, but unfortunately it has not come true. Now that he is retired, he can only watch it on the news.
Tencent Sports: But McGrady has come to China. Nanchang is not far from Qingdao. We can go to see him play.
Qu Shitao: Well, I hope it will come true one day.
Tencent Sports: Do you still pay attention to Yao Ming after his retirement?
Qu Shitao: Of course I care. A few days ago, I saw a picture on the Internet, that is, Dayao blocked the line of sight of the students in the back row during class. I think this is very interesting.
Tencent Sports: Yao Ming continued to improve himself after leaving the basketball court. Does this inspire you, too?
Qu Shitao: I see persistence in Yao Ming. I am about to graduate and choose a job. I'm sure I will encounter many difficulties. I think I should stick to it and keep the optimistic and confident spirit he brought me.
Tencent Sports: Are there any relaxation methods in daily life?
Qu Shitao: I will listen to some classic old songs, such as Jacky Cheung and Alan Tam. Listening to music makes me feel very relaxed.
Tencent Sports: Some people on the Internet say that your hook is a bit like Yao Ming's.
Qu Shitao: (laughs) Thank you, you flatter me.
Note: Fate can't take away the basketball in his hand.
165438+1October 13 at 9: 00 pm, I got Qu Shitao's contact information. On the mobile phone, a friend recommended by WeChat showed his head. The picture shows a basketball shoe lying on the ground. At that time, I didn't fully understand what they meant, but when I told Xiaoqu that we were going to fly there for an interview the next morning, he politely said "bon voyage" to me.
165438+1October 14 at 10: 30 in the morning, my colleagues and I arrived at East China Institute of Technology. I called Xiao Qu and asked him for the address of the dormitory. He said on the phone, "You just stand there, and I'll walk right over." I feel a little ashamed to think that he walked a long way to meet us because of his mobility difficulties. Five minutes later, he appeared behind us, no different from other college students in appearance: upper gray coat, lower white pants and simple sneakers, and he came to us with a smile. However, when he walks, his right leg will bend slightly, which is slower and more difficult than ordinary people. We immediately stepped forward.
Xiaoqu began to insist on showing us around the campus. Considering that the distance between the school gate and the dormitory is really far, we resolutely refused to let him go back to the dormitory by the vehicle arranged by the school, and we followed.
Walking into the dormitory, I saw the basketball shoes on the ground and asked him, "So your WeChat avatar was inspired here?" Xiaoqu embarrassedly touched his head. "At that time, I took such a photo when I was idle in the dormitory. Later, I felt good and became an avatar. "
Because of filming some scenes in his life, Xiao Qu had to take off his prosthetic leg and put on crutches. I saw that he was a little embarrassed, so I asked him, "Is it inconvenient?" He whispered, "Excuse me, can you come in and shoot while I change my shoes?" We immediately walked out of the dormitory, and Xiao Qu quickly changed clothes and called us in.
He carefully put the prosthetic leg into the wardrobe, found a crutch from the corner, sat in a chair and propped it up, skillfully put on those sneakers, and then put on the jersey shorts that he usually wears to play ball. Xiaoqu's expression immediately became sunny.
When you come to the stadium, you will see a completely different little bend. He is no longer shy. Even under the camera, he can generously catch, shoot and hook, complete all kinds of cooperation with his classmates on the court, and then confidently shout "Good shot!" If that video on the Internet brought me shock and emotion, then what it brought me at that time should be something called "positive energy".
Xiaoqu is nervous about studying now and can only play basketball once or twice a week. He can't come back to watch the highlights of the game until he finishes the experiment every afternoon. He told me something like this: "I know basketball can't be played all my life, but I can't touch it now." A little reluctant. "
He said that he liked Yao Ming best, but he always wanted to visit the site, but he didn't get a chance. "He is really my idol. I always hope to see him on the spot, even if I look up next to him. " Every time I talk about Yao Ming, Xiaoqu always has endless words. I told him that now that McGrady has come to play in China, he can visit the stadium when he has time. Xiaoqu said, I hope so. I will definitely go and have a look if I can.
Throughout the afternoon of interviewing Xiao Qu, there were constant media contacts with him, and only five local media called in. Although some unexpected, but in the face of such a situation, Xiao Qu still seems a little tired.
"During this period of time, because of the interview, things in learning have been delayed a lot, and the experimental pressure is quite great. I don't want to be famous through this, but some don't know how to deal with it. " He said to me.
Later, I learned that Xiao Qu was unwilling to mention his injury and family situation to the media. Although it has been reported before, he is still a little sensitive. "I don't want my family to be disturbed. My mother works hard alone. Without her, there would be no me today. Although the conditions at home are not good, she has been working hard. "
Before leaving, I asked Xiao Qu if he had any wishes in the near future. He said, "I hope to return to the state of study as soon as possible, find a good job, adapt to the walking of artificial limbs as soon as possible, and then return to the court like a healthy person." Speaking of basketball, his eyes sparkled with confidence.
Xiaoqu hopes to drive herself to play anywhere. He hopes to earn money as soon as possible to honor his hardworking mother. He hopes to meet Yao Ming. There are many hopes in his life, and these hopes are coming to him step by step.
Dreams are like this basketball thrown by Xiao Tao. Although it is still flying, it will eventually hit the heart of the basket.
