Shen Xiaogong has been smart since he was a child and has excellent academic performance in primary and secondary schools. In the early 1980s when the high school admission rate was extremely low, Shen Xiaogong successfully passed the high school entrance examination of Dingbian Middle School.

In the 1986 college entrance examination, Shen Xiaogong was admitted to the English Department of Yan'an University for a three-year semester. During these three years, Shen Xiaogong studied hard and his English level improved by leaps and bounds. It is said that he was able to communicate fluently with foreigners.

Shen Xiaogong likes calligraphy. I heard it was also well written. In October 2019, Director Shen, accompanied by personnel from the Dingbian Education Bureau, came to inspect the school in his hometown. As a teacher of the school calligraphy club, I had close contact with the largest official I had ever seen for the first time. The small calligraphy classroom is filled with what I call “works”. I saw the poorness of my calligraphy work from Director Shen's frown.

? Postscript

? Wumao, a remote mountain village with only 138 households and a population of more than 600, has given birth to many characters. Of course, in addition to the above four, many other characters emerged before and after Wumao. Since I don’t know or recognize them or it’s inconvenient to interview them, I won’t list them one by one here.

?When I was young, I had no contact with any characters and felt that they were far away. When I entered my forties, I finally became an ordinary person who existed like dust. Now that I have really come into contact with the characters, they feel even more distant.

By chance, I came into contact with Shen Xiaogong, a figure in Wu Mao. I was envious and admired him greatly. Because they are so different from each other, I don’t know any of the above four people, and I don’t know the specific details of their life experiences and the reasons for them. I will write down some of their experiences to encourage myself.

In December, Director Shen’s mother passed away in Yangjing’s hometown. By some strange combination of circumstances, I was instructed by the principal to go to his hometown to help. The task is to write elegiac couplets and obituaries. I deeply feel that small talents can make a big difference. You know, not to mention the twelve counties of Yulin, even the central and central borders, there are so many people who are above me.

I took this opportunity to pull a string and find out about the other three characters to highlight their outstanding talents.
