Only one month after his birth, he was diagnosed with a rare disease-congenital stupidity, which means that his intelligence level will not exceed 30 in the future, and this disease is incurable.
The bad news plunged the whole Hu family into darkness, but in any case, the days passed, and Yizhou's father could only take care of his special child with extremely strong spirit.
However, God never shuts one door but he opens another. Although Hu Yizhou's intelligence level is low, he seems to have a unique musical talent, and he will imitate the conductor at an early age. His father Hu Peihou is a famous musician. After discovering Zhou Zhou's hobby, Hu Peihou began to formally teach his son to learn to conduct.
It's difficult to learn other things in Hu Yizhou, but you can learn to conduct quickly. Many people came here after knowing this, and wanted to see how the so-called mentally retarded teenagers conducted their command.
Public attention has also brought many benefits. Zhou Zhou's fame is getting bigger and bigger, even attracting the director of the TV station. Zhang Yiqing, the director of Hubei TV Station, heard about Zhou Zhou's deeds and called at home, hoping to learn about the teenager's life experience.
1997, he came to Hu Yizhou's home to discuss with Hu Peihou whether he could shoot a documentary featuring Zhou Zhou. Hu Peihou also hopes to take this opportunity to let everyone know the inner world of children like Zhou Zhou.
The name of this documentary is Zhou Zhou's World, and the shooting period is as long as ten months. When shooting, Zhou Zhou acted very naturally. His daily life was recorded by the camera and then presented to the audience.
The theme of this documentary is "All life is worthy of respect". This theme, together with Zhou Zhou's ignorant performance, won good ratings after its release, even won a series of awards at home and abroad, and even been translated into multiple languages and broadcast overseas.
At the end of 1998, Chairman Liu of China Disabled Persons' Federation was very moved after watching this documentary, so he immediately called his parents and invited them to attend the Spring Festival Evening held by the Disabled Persons' Federation in January 1999.
This is a good opportunity for Zhou Zhou, so Hu Peihou agreed to let Zhou Zhou attend the party after consideration. Zhou Zhou's performance did not disappoint. On the Spring Festival Evening, he stood in the center of the stage in a tuxedo and conquered all the audience with smooth and elegant command.
Looking at Zhou Zhou's performance, it is hard to believe that he is a child with mental problems. After watching the band's performance, the audience couldn't help standing up and applauding him, and the applause lasted for a long time.
In 2000, he joined the Disabled Persons' Federation Art Troupe and officially became the band leader. He followed the art troupe to many places and traveled all over the country. On May 6th, 2000, Zhou Zhou also got the opportunity to perform in the Great Hall of the People. This time, he conducted the symphony orchestra of China Opera House alone, which seemed to be quite handy.
Andy Lau also attended the charity dinner. When he sang, he held Zhou Zhou in his arms, and all the audiences in China saw it. This is the pinnacle of Zhou Zhou's life, and the experience of Zhou Zhou also inspires other disabled people in this country to do what they like and pursue success.
But it didn't last long. After all, Zhou Zhou is not an ordinary child. After his mother died, his mood was greatly affected and he could no longer perform on stage. His father had to take him away from the Disabled Persons' Federation.
Because there are fewer and fewer performances, people pay less and less attention to Zhou Zhou. More importantly, Zhou Zhou and his son are very nervous because there is no source of income at home. Zhou Zhou is forty-two years old now. After that, he did not engage in music-related work and became an ordinary person.
Today, some people still call Zhou Zhou a genius conductor. Faced with this title, his father Hu Peihou is somewhat ashamed. He said that Zhou Zhou had no musical talent, and everyone tolerated him only because of his particularity.
Today's Zhou Zhou still has the innocent eyes of many years ago. His life experience is very rough, but no matter how the outside world changes, he just lives in his own small world without any worries. If ordinary people encounter these setbacks, it may have been unbearable for a long time. However, because Zhou Zhou is too simple, it always automatically shields the malicious outside world and can always live happily every day. This is actually a good thing.
