She is not good at words, always silently practicing hard not to cause trouble to her teammates; she is extremely filial, and her salary in the national team every month is always handed over to her mother; she is diligent, self-motivated, beautiful, sensible... Too many words of praise can be used on her, she is a Chinese women's gymnast - Mao Yi.

In September 1999, on the tail of the millennium, Mao Yi was born in Ruijin City, Jiangxi Province, to an ordinary family, where his parents made a living as a tailor and processed clothes. When Mao Yi was very young, her parents took her to Shenyang in the northeast and rented her in an old, old and small residential building. In this small room, there are sewing machines, and the family lives and works here, which is the childhood of Mao Yi.
The children of poor families have long been in charge, Mao Yi has been particularly sensible since she was a child, and when other children are still playing, she has learned how to help her parents and reduce the workload of her parents. When other children cried out for dolls and new clothes, Mao Yi never mentioned it to their parents. Until the sports school, her mother would give her 100 fast every month as the cost of buying daily necessities, and she always saved money, even if she used it too much, she would not ask for it at home.
She is well aware of her family situation, and the only way to break this situation is to work hard. Therefore, when training in sports school, she worked harder than any of the little friends who trained together. However, because the atmosphere of learning gymnastics in Shenyang is not too good, in order not to delay the future of the children, under the arrangement of Zhang Hanxia, the principal of gymnastics in Shenyang, Mao Yi entered the Yunnan team as one of the gymnastics seedlings jointly cultivated by Liaoning and Yunnan.
At the age of 14, Mao Yi's gymnastics career took a turn. That year, she represented the Yunnan team in the National Games, but unfortunately, Mao Yi's performance at that time was really average, and she could not enter the final at all, and at that time, she was questioned by everyone. Although her heart was heavy after being eliminated, she did not leave the arena, but quietly watched the game of the strong team Shanghai team on the edge of the field. "Want to try it in the Shanghai team?" If you want to, I'll find a way," Principal Zhang Hanxia couldn't bear to let the girl cut off the gymnastics road, and Mao Yi nodded desperately, her face was full of tears, she knew that this might be her last chance. Through the introduction of friends, Zhang Hanxia recommended Mao Yi to Coach Zhou Shiping of the Shanghai team.

After the first class of the trial, Zhou Shiping felt that Mao Yi was extremely talented, but he still needed to be carved, so he personally formulated a complete set of training plans for Mao Yi, from 8:00 a.m. to 18:30 p.m. Mao Yi knows that the opportunity is not easy, and if he can't seize this opportunity, he may not be able to "turn over" again, so he has never dared to relax in training. Seven months later, Mao Yi's performance improved by leaps and bounds, and Coach Zhou Shiping felt that he could not delay her any longer, so he took the opportunity to take her to the national team to train. After watching a full training session by the national team coach, he immediately said that he would let Mao Yi stay in the national team, and the door of his dream finally opened for her.
"In the national team, we must work harder than in the Shanghai team!" After successfully bringing Mao Yi into the national team, Zhou Shiping seriously said to Mao Yi that in his opinion, this good seedling started too late, and the twists and turns in the middle were constantly delayed several times. Mao Yi did not live up to Zhou Shiping's expectations, in just two years, from a young player who was about to be eliminated by gymnastics to an obscure young player who was about to be eliminated by gymnastics to represent the Chinese team at the third level of continuous jumping, and the experience of playing in the Olympic Games with Fan Yilin, Shang Chunsong, Wang Yan, Tan Jiasheng and other new athletes in the Olympic Games, the experience was like a movie bridge, which was difficult to replicate.
Mao Yi participated in the Rio Olympics
Although she has not achieved the results of the gymnasts of the same generation, as an ordinary person's struggle history, this 18-year-old girl is the most worthy of our learning and attention. Today's Mao Yi has passed the rest period after the Rio Olympics, has returned to the national team as scheduled, and is in the process of intense preparation training, and this late-blooming girl can look forward to the future.
