by April 22, nearly 25 million people in China had heard his wonderful lectures. In May 2, Li Yang was invited to visit Japan and South Korea, and Li Yang's Crazy English became popular in Asia. In October 2, Li Yang's crazy Chinese landed in the United States, and Li Yang personally went to the United States to start his crazy Chinese tour to give lectures.
Li Yang, the founder of Crazy English, performed a wonderful life legend with his unremitting pursuit and struggle. He was admitted as an English news announcer and "Talk show" program host with his authentic American English, which made many foreigners think that he was Chinese-American, but he was not from an English class and had never been abroad.
Li Yang was not born an English genius. When I was a child, Li Yang was just an ordinary child. He was shy, introverted, afraid to meet strangers, afraid to answer the phone, afraid to go to the movies, and even afraid to make any noise when the instrument leaked electricity and burned his face during physical therapy (there is still a scar on his face) ... In 1986, Li Yang was admitted to the Engineering Mechanics Department of Lanzhou University in the northwest. After entering the university, Li Yang's life did not appear bright. In the final exam of the first semester, Li Yang ranked first from the bottom in the whole year, and failed the English exam for two consecutive semesters.
By the end of the last semester of sophomore year, Li Yang had failed 13 subjects. He felt ashamed and told himself that he had to break out of the gray life! He chose English as a breakthrough and vowed to pass the National English Test Band 4 held four months later.
At this time, Li Yang, like others, began to do a lot of problems. Occasionally, Li Yang found that when reading English aloud, his attention would become very concentrated, so he ran to the empty place of the campus every day to shout English. Ten days later, Li Yang came to the English corner, and others said strangely, "Li Yang, your English sounds much better." Wake up the dreamer in one word! Li Yang thought: Shouting like this may be a good way to learn English.
In order to prevent himself from giving up halfway, Li Yang invited one of his classmates who studied hardest to shout English together at noon every day. In the Martyrs Pavilion of Lanzhou University, Li Yang and his classmates shouted English sentences at the top of their voices against the cold wind. They shouted from the winter of 1987 to the spring of 1988. In four months, Li Yang recited more than ten original English books and memorized a large number of CET-4 questions. Every day, Li Yang's pocket is full of notes copying various English sentences, and he takes them out whenever he has time. From dormitory to classroom, from classroom to canteen, Li Yang's mouth is always moving. After 4 months, Li Yang's tongue is no longer stiff, his ears are no longer out of order, and his reaction is no longer dull. In that year's CET-4, Li Yang finished the examination paper in only 5 minutes, and ranked second in the whole school. Li Yang, who failed in the exam, suddenly became an English master, which caused a sensation in Lanzhou University.
Li Yang, who tasted success for the first time, began to forge ahead in life. He found that when he shouted, his personality began to change, and human weaknesses such as introversion, inferiority and shyness were shattered in the process of shouting, and his energy was more concentrated, his memory was more profound and his self-confidence was gradually established. He thought that this method has been successful in him, so why not systematically summarize this method and teach it to other students who are still struggling in the misunderstanding of English learning? Introverted. Li Yang made an amazing move-giving a lecture. He asked his classmates to put up posters and said that there was a guy named Li Yang who had some experience in learning English and wanted to share it with you. An hour or two before the speech began, Li Yang was so scared that he wanted to give up. With the applause of his classmates, he stumbled onto the podium and began his first speech in his life. Looking back ten years later, Li Yang said, "At that time, I didn't have any speech skills at all. But my point of view is very special and the method is very effective, which covers up the lack of speech skills and experience. "
In July, 199, Li Yang graduated from Lanzhou University and was assigned to the Northwest Institute of Electronic Equipment in Xi 'an. From the dormitory to the office, there was a loess flying road. Li Yang passed by this road every day, holding a card in his hand and reading English in his mouth. At first, he was lonely, and everyone called him a "madman". Slowly, there were one, two and three behind him. In winter, shouting English in the snowflake dancing: in summer, shouting English at the sunrise with bare arms and shorts. In this way, after insisting on blurting out 4 sentences every day before the sun comes out and shouting for a year and a half, Li Yang's life path has once again reached a new turning point.
In 1992, Li Yang came to Guangzhou and stood out from the competition of more than 1, people. He was admitted to the English station of Guangdong People's Broadcasting Station. After work, he found that all the selected announcers were graduate students from Beijing Foreign Studies University and Guangzhou Foreign Studies University, and only he was an undergraduate from a non-English major. Soon, Li Yang became the English news anchor of Guangzhou TV Station, the most popular English announcer in Guangzhou and the youngest member of China Translators Association.
In the following years, Li Yang got the nickname "Universal Translator", which set an interpretation record of $4 an hour and an advertisement dubbing record of $8, per minute, surpassing his Hong Kong counterparts and becoming the most expensive simultaneous translator in Guangzhou.
Considering that there are more than 3 million people in China who are suffering from "deaf-mute English", in order to spread their successful experience in English to more people, in 1994, Li Yang resolutely quit his job in the radio station and set up the "Li Yang Kelitz International English Promotion Studio" to start an ascetic "preaching" career. In the past ten years, he has been summing up, making painstaking efforts and wading through mountains and rivers, sending Li Yang's Crazy English Fast Breakthrough Method to 25 million people in more than 1 cities across the country. Through newspapers, television, radio, magazines and other channels, hundreds of millions of people have been inspired by it, and countless people have since embarked on the road to success in English and life.
