In volleyball, the position of the second setter is extremely important, the athletes in their position need to grasp the characteristics of each teammate and organize a smooth attack, the women's volleyball team that won the Athens Olympic Games, there is an excellent second pass like Feng Kun in the camp, Lang Ping once said bluntly that "the world of Feng Kun".
In the Rio Olympics, Lang Ping's subordinates also had such an outstanding team member, she was Wei Qiuyue. Wei Qiuyue has a sweet appearance and does not lose hui Ruoqi and Zhang Changning, and has been entrusted with heavy responsibilities as the captain of the women's volleyball team. However, at the beginning of Lang Ping's appointment, Wei Qiuyue unexpectedly lost the big list, her role in the team is self-evident, why did Lang Ping refuse?
Wei Qiuyue was born in Tianjin, his parents are sports enthusiasts, when they were young, it was the brilliant period of the "five consecutive championships" of the Chinese women's volleyball team, so they had special feelings for volleyball. When Wei Qiuyue was five years old, because she was taller than other girls, her father felt that she had the potential to become an athlete, so he sent her to practice volleyball.
In 1995, Wei Qiuyue began to study while practicing volleyball, she tried many positions, the coach thought she was the most suitable or second pass, because she was introverted, but very smart, thinking about more and more thoughtful things. Sure enough, Wei Qiuyue played an excellent talent in the second pass position, and was soon favored by the coach of Tianjin Major Sports School.
Wei Qiuyue got up at 6 o'clock every morning to read, took a Chinese class and a math class, and then began a long volleyball practice, although it was very hard, she never wanted to back down, her dream was to enter the Tianjin team and even the national team, driven by the dream, she quickly grew up and became the best one in the team.
In 2003, at the age of 15, Wei Qiuyue was favored by Lin Nan, the coach of the national junior team, and recruited her into the team, after which she was successfully selected for the Tianjin women's volleyball team. In the Tianjin women's volleyball camp, there are many extremely talented players, together with the "sisters", Wei Qiuyue learned a lot of experience, laying a solid foundation for entering the national youth team and the national team in the future.
On the eve of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, Chen Zhonghe recruited a group of young players to reserve reserve talents, and Wei Qiuyue was among them. Wei Qiuyue's outstanding ability was recognized by Chen Zhonghe, which not only made her feel the atmosphere of Olympic preparation, but also took her into the arena. At that time, the main second pass of the Chinese women's volleyball team was Feng Kun, although Wei Qiuyue's role was not so obvious, she still got a bronze medal with the team. It can be said that the first Olympic trip is full of happiness and joy.
Wei Qiuyue's basic skills are solid, although the movement speed is slow, but the passing line is precise, extremely stable, and he is more skilled in handling small balls. After the Beijing Olympics, Feng Kun faded out of the national team, and Wei Qiuyue sat in the main position.
In the next few years, the Chinese women's volleyball team showed a low point, changed three coaches within two years, and the results of foreign wars were no longer the same year. However, Wei Qiuyue's strength was deeply recognized by the coach, she became the captain of the women's volleyball team, and at the 2012 London Olympic Games, although there were talented players such as Hui Ruoqi, Wei Qiuyue, Xu Yunli and other talented players in the team, she ultimately failed to enter the final four and lost.
With Lang Ping taking charge of the coaching whip, the women's volleyball team began a drastic reform, but in the training list, Wei Qiuyue's name was missing, and in the position of the second pass, it was Ding Xia and other young generals. It turned out that at this time, Wei Qiuyue had a serious knee injury, and Lang Ping hoped that she could undergo surgery and return to the arena as soon as possible, while Wei Qiuyue was worried that it would be difficult to recover from the operation to reach the peak state, and chose conservative treatment. Their lack of agreement on their thinking is an important reason for the failure.
Wei Qiuyue stayed in Yang for a while, but was not happy, and then returned to the Tianjin women's volleyball team to help the team get the runner-up that year. At this time, Wei Qiuyue also wanted to continue to serve the country, so he took the initiative to send a text message to Lang Ping to show his thoughts.
Although the Chinese women's volleyball team after Lang Ping started to have a certain improvement, but the second pass position is really too important, she also hopes to have an old team member to press the line, she recalled Wei Qiuyue, and Wei Qiuyue went to the United States to undergo surgery under Lang Ping's suggestion. After a period of recovery, she finally stood in the ranks of the national team.
In the 2015 World Cup final, the Chinese team won the match point, as long as one more point can win the championship, at this time, Lang Ping sent Wei Qiuyue, who is in the recovery period, to let her feel the excitement of winning the championship; in the 2016 Rio Olympic Games, the Chinese women's volleyball team stood on the top of the world and regained the precious gold medal, as the elder of the three Olympic Games, Wei Qiuyue finally realized her dream.
Wei Qiuyue was lucky, she made the right choice, if there is no surgical treatment, did not go out for the country in these two years, it will inevitably become her eternal regret.
In 2005, Tianjin men's volleyball player Yuan Lingxi, at the invitation of Tianjin women's volleyball coach Wang Baoquan, became a escort coach in the women's volleyball team, and later because of the need to prepare for the Beijing Olympic Games, he was seconded to the Chinese women's volleyball team by Chen Zhonghe. In Tianjin and the national team, the player he has the most contact with is Wei Qiuyue. Over time, Wei Qiuyue and Yuan Lingxi harvested love and walked together.
Wei Qiuyue is delicate, Yuan Lingxi is handsome, in the eyes of outsiders, it is really a pair made in heaven, but it is also Yuan Lingxi's handsome appearance, which has attracted many female team members, including Wei Qiuyue's teammate Li Juan.
According to rumors, Wei Qiuyue and Li Juan had fought hard because of Yuan Lingxi, but neither of them had responded to this matter, whether it was a vacuum or a real matter, I am afraid that only the parties concerned know. However, as a double-decker teammate of the Tianjin team and the national team, the relationship should be very good, but on top of their wedding, they did not invite each other, which made people have to make conjectures.
Not only that, in an interview, the Japanese women's volleyball beauty player Kimura Saori also admitted that she had a good feeling for Yuan Lingxi, or the kind of love at first sight, but the relationship between Yuan Lingxi and Wei Qiuyue has always been very good, Kimura Saori did not enter their lives, and this volleyball, cross-country unrequited love finally ended.
Wei Qiuyue underwent surgery due to injury, Yuan Lingxi has been with her, encouraging her to spend that long recovery period, Wei Qiuyue returned to the field and ushered in her peak state, it can be said that Yuan Lingxi's contribution is indispensable.
After the Rio Olympics, Wei Qiuyue faded out of the national team, and after the National Games the following year, she chose to retire and officially bid farewell to her volleyball career. In the same year, Wei Qiuyue and Yuan Lingxi received a marriage license and officially married. Wei Qiuyue was wearing a white wedding dress and her face was full of bright smiles, and at that moment, she was the happiest person in the world.
Wei Qiuyue has the aura of an Olympic champion and has also made important contributions to the Tianjin women's volleyball team, after retiring, she was arranged to the Tianjin Sports Bureau and served as the vice president of tianjin sports vocational college. She can no longer wear the chinese team's battle robes and fight for the motherland like when she was young, but behind the scenes, she still supports China's volleyball cause.
In 2020, Wei Qiuyue announced the good news of childbirth and upgraded to become a mother. After the Tokyo Olympics, Lang Ping resigned as head coach, and it is still difficult to determine what the future direction of Yuan Lingxi's future development is still uncertain, but the national team currently has fewer games, and he can finally free up time to accompany his wife and children. Only from Yuan Lingxi's recent photos, you can see that he has a lot of white hair, it seems that for the cause of the women's volleyball team, he really broke his heart!
A few days ago, Wei Qiuyue, who rarely appeared in front of the media, was photographed walking into a school in Tianjin, on the volleyball court, teaching students the essentials of movement and basic skills, although she is now 33 years old, but her figure is maintained very well. The former Olympic champion came to teach, and the students felt very happy, watched carefully, and studied seriously.
Wei Qiuyue is not in the field, every time the ball is turned, passed, are concentrated, many years without professional training, her movements are skilled, it seems that usually in life, still practice as a part, after all, volleyball is the sport she loves all her life.
At the same time, Wei Qiuyue also told her classmates about her mental journey, and the persistence and persistence of the Olympic champion will surely enlighten every child present. After the event, the children surrounded Wei Qiuyue and asked her to sign, and Wei Qiuyue did not refuse, writing her name on the volleyball and giving it to every little fan. I believe that in such activities, more children will fall in love with volleyball, cultivate more talented players, and win glory for the country.
Devoting yourself to the development of the volleyball cause of the motherland is not only to stand on the field and play a wonderful game, nor is it to be a guest of various programs, telling the love affair with volleyball, calling on everyone to enter the sport, it is more reflected in the little things in daily life, and infecting more people with their own practical actions.
Wei Qiuyue has an introverted personality, not arrogant or impatient. Now in the Tianjin Sports Bureau, she has achieved the position of deputy department level, which is the highest administrative level among the players in the same batch, and perhaps the income is not much, but it is the happiest one.
