The levels are not the same, they are completely incomparable.

The guzheng professional level and the amateur level are completely different

To put it simply, there is indeed a possibility that you The so-called "professional level" is the "professional title", which is a recognition system for professional talent levels developed by the Ministry of Personnel. This is a truly authoritative recognition.

At present, the grading system for guzheng and other subjects such as piano, erhu, dance, etc. is set for amateurs. The popular level system is divided into ten levels from one to ten, with level one being the lowest and level ten being the highest. This kind of amateur grading examination is just a means to urge and guide amateur students to further their studies. Even if you pass the highest level amateur examination, it does not represent a high level. Because the amateur grading examination itself determines the amateur nature of this kind of grading examination behavior. The gap between the level of students who pass this kind of amateur examination and those of professional guzheng artists cannot be measured.

Only the national professional title system is authoritative for the professional recognition of guzheng art. "Professional title" is actually a conventional term. In fact, it is the country’s definition and assessment system for professional and technical talents. It is a graded title for the professional skills and knowledge level and work ability of professional and technical personnel. This title is legally binding. Professional title evaluation is hosted by the Ministry of Personnel and is the most authoritative and formal professional level system. In contrast, other amateur grade examinations are managed by group organizations, etc., and their authority is naturally different. Therefore, if you really want to pursue professional authoritative recognition, you can participate in professional title evaluation.

Professional professional titles include junior professional titles, intermediate professional titles, senior professional titles, etc., which are not like amateur grading examinations. Amateur examinations are divided into 10 levels, while professional titles generally only have four to five levels. Different majors also have different names for their professional titles. For example, in the field of teaching in colleges and universities, the professional titles from lowest to highest are: teaching assistant, lecturer, associate professor, and professor. In the field of artistic performance, from low to high they are: fourth-level actors, third-level actors, second-level actors, and first-level actors. In the aviation field, the professional titles from lowest to highest are: pilot level 4, pilot level 3, pilot level 2, and pilot level 1. Different industries and majors also have their own corresponding professional titles with different names, but the levels are basically the same. First-class actors, first-class pilots, etc. are at the same level as professors and are the highest professional titles. This is different from the amateur grading exam, which is the lowest level.

As for "performer", "master", "king", "prince", and "queen", these are just social titles or nicknames without any restrictions or regulations. No matter who you are, you can casually give yourself the title of "Guzheng Player", "Guzheng Prince", "Guzheng Princess", or "Guzheng Master". There is no one to supervise and manage it, and it sounds nice. . Therefore, this kind of social title has a tendency to spread. However, professional titles must not be written carelessly. If you write them carelessly, you will be held responsible. That’s why many people are very smart. On their resumes, they have “prince” on the left and “performer” on the right. However, when I look through the resume, there is no mention of professional title. Experts will generally laugh when they read this kind of "copycat" resume. What really shows a person's academic status is simply to see what level of national title he has. Those who claim to be masters even if they don't have an intermediate professional title can only be regarded as people who don't know the truth on the Internet.

I have indeed heard that some zheng factories, non-governmental organizations and even individual schools have carried out some activities called "professional examinations", but this is just a market behavior. Because when it comes to professional issues, only the National Ministry of Personnel has the power to certify professionals, while ordinary non-governmental organizations and mass organizations do not have this qualification at all. Even if such an organization issues you a professional-level certificate, it will be ineffective. Therefore, I think if you have time and money, it’s okay to take the so-called “professional level certificate” for fun. But if you really want to rely on this kind of fake professional certificate to prove your professional standards to the society, then I think it’s better not to waste your time.

Hope it can be adopted. .
