Wang said his world became totally dark at the age of 10, which made it impossible for him to stay in his public primary school.
His father Wang Qiwen discovered his son's interest in music, and hired two teachers for him, one teaching braille and the other piano.
"I hoped music could light up his world and keep him company," his father said.
At first, his mother Zhang Haiping read the musical notes to him so he could memorize them before practice. Three years later, Wang He learned to read braille sheet music by himself.
"He loves playing the piano so much and is truly gifted. He practices at least seven hours a day and passed the 10-level piano exam in just three and a half years," said his father.
While playing the piano, Wang He also caught up on his school classes.
In 2017, while enrolled at the Ningxia Special Education High School located in Yinchuan, Ningxia's regional capital, he took part in the Seventh United Kingdom Royal International Academy Contest and placed first in the China Region.
At the award ceremony, he was invited to play the award-winning piece Beethoven's Symphony of Fate.
"It was a surprise for me. I never thought of winning. Then I remembered that hard work always pays off," Wang He said.
"I hope to become a piano teacher after gradation so I can help blind children in Ningxia," he said.
In 2017, Chinese universities and colleges enrolled 10,808 disabled students, and another 1,845 disabled students were admitted to special education higher learning schools.
