Resume
The story of Chen Yan, a blind piano tuning lawyer, is a bit legendary, but it's all true. When she was 3 months old, Chen Yan was abandoned by her parents because of her congenital disability. Her grandmother adopted her and brought her up. Chen Yan has been interested in music since childhood and has learned many musical instruments. Since learning to tune the piano, she always spends thirteen or four hours beside the piano every day, touching it carefully and remembering it carefully. When learning to tune, one must also be able to repair the piano. A blind man with a hammer hammering nails and a plane planing wood, injuries are always inevitable. During the period of learning to tune, she didn't have a good piece of meat in her hand. After four years of study, Chen Yan mastered the most advanced piano tuning technology in Europe and the United States, but she was full of confidence and immediately encountered the cruel reality. At that time, people in China could not accept the industry of blind piano tuner. After several twists and turns, the manager of a big Piano Company agreed to be employed after the examination. But the manager was embarrassed to say that this job needs to tune the piano for customers, and it's too difficult for you to go door-to-door now. Besides, there are a lot of cars on the road. If there is a traffic accident, the piano company should be responsible for it. in order to get familiar with the terrain and road conditions, she asked her family to help her to copy the place names, stations, Hutong communities on the map into Braille and memorize them one by one. One user didn't want the blind to tune. When she arrived at the user's home, she went to the piano with her eyes with the little light she had left. She repaired the tuning belt for two hours. The customer was very satisfied after playing the piano. She said that Chen Yan would tune both of his pianos later. At this time, Chen Yan told him that she was blind, and the other party was embarrassed. in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Chen Yan made a rule for herself: never tell her that she is blind when she meets with customers. After tuning the piano, she must tell the users that she is blind. She said: "after tuning for the user, I not only taught the user some maintenance knowledge, but also played a beautiful tune for the user. At this time, I told him that I was a blind piano tuning lawyer, and the user was very surprised. You're blind. How did you get here? When you tune the piano, your eyes always follow the hand! At that time, I feel like a winner. " Chen Yan is really famous in the circle of tuning the piano. It's his technology that makes him famous. She memorizes more than 8000 piano parts, and can find out the parts that affect the intonation in time, so as to call up the correct melody. So far, she has tuned the pianos of tens of thousands of families, and her footprints are all over the streets of Beijing. in order to help more piano users, Chen Yan opened the country's first piano public welfare hotline. Every night from 7:00 to 10:00, she would wait by the phone. On the way to piano tuning, her greatest ideal is to let people all over the country know that blind people can engage in piano tuning. Chen Yan not only has proficient professional skills in piano tuning, but also has created many miracles for the blind: the first female blind piano tuning lawyer in China, the first Chinese blind to write autobiography, the first blind to ride a unicycle, swim, ride a bicycle, drive a kart, roller skate, and Practice Taekwondo, etc. Chen Yan said that no matter how long and hard the road is, she will "smile at life.".
