In the blink of an eye, it has come to 2022, and the past year has been a dark year for the Chinese women's volleyball team and fans, especially the defeat of the Tokyo Olympics has become a scar that fans do not want to open. After the end of the Olympic Games, head coach Lang Ping officially announced his retirement, since taking office in 2013, Lang Director has been in the position of the manager of the Chinese women's volleyball team for eight years, bringing surprises to fans, but also accompanied by regrets. The good news is that the Chinese women's volleyball team has returned to the peak from the trough under the leadership of Lang Dao, and has won 3 championships, 1 Asian and 1 season in three major competitions in 8 years, and has cultivated a number of excellent players such as Zhu Ting, Zhang Changning, Yuan Xinyue, Gong Xiangyu, Li Yingying and so on. Unfortunately, the Tokyo Olympics folded and failed to create glory again, in addition, Zhu Ting, Zhang Changning, Ding Xia and other players are plagued by injuries, when they can return to the field is still full of variables, and Rio Olympics champions Yan Ni, Liu Xiaotong and other veterans also chose to retire, slowly fading out of everyone's sight.
Recently, a micro-film of "When, Happiness Comes Knocking" appeared on the screen, and from the video we saw a very familiar figure, that is, Lang Ping, which should be the first time that Director Lang returned to the public eye after the Olympics. This movie is based on the true story of the characters around Lang Dao, and there are characters who often accompany Lang Dao in the picture, such as the cleaning aunt who has worked for many years, the husband of the cleaning aunt, the director of the orthopedic department of Guang'anmen Hospital, Dr. Wang, the director of the rehabilitation department of the Chinese medicine hospital, Dr. Liu, the daughter of Dr. Wang, and so on. In addition, there is also the former Chinese women's volleyball captain Wei Qiuyue, from the movie screen can be seen Wei Qiuyue holding her son to Lang Director's home, Wei Qiuyue after shouting "Lang Director", let his son call "Grandma", after hearing the "Grandma" in the child's mouth, Lang Qiuyue's face smiled and blossomed, a very warm scene. Unconsciously, Lang Dao has become the "grandmother" in the child's mouth, and it has to be said that time is fleeting, and Lang Ping, who used to slam the ball like a hammer on the field, has also entered the year of flower armor, and wrinkles have also climbed on her cheeks.
In addition to this title, there is another title that has also changed. In the first scene of the picture, when Lang Dao was looking at the photos full of walls to recall the past, the screen wrote "former Chinese women's volleyball team head coach", which made many fans sigh, the original Lang director has really left the Chinese women's volleyball team, identity has also changed, although many fans are unwilling to accept this fact, in the mind still ranks her in the first place, but reality is reality. Time back to 2017, the second year after the Chinese women's volleyball team won the rio Olympics, when Lang Dao's contract with the Volleyball Association expired, and italy, the United States and many other volleyball associations threw olive branches to her, in the interview dialogue with reporters, Lang Dao firmly said that he wanted to take the Chinese women's volleyball team, or not. Perhaps in Lang Dao's heart, she is also reluctant to the Chinese women's volleyball team, and she is even more reluctant to zhu Ting, Zhang Changning and other outstanding talents. Especially after winning the World Cup in 19 years, the outside world is getting louder and louder for the Chinese women's volleyball team to win the Tokyo Olympics, but the plan cannot catch up with the changes, the sudden epidemic, Zhu Ting's injury aggravation, coupled with the recurrence of the old team's injury, the Chinese women's volleyball team finally lost to Tokyo.
Nowadays, the position of the manager of the Chinese women's volleyball team is still not finalized, and it is estimated that only until the final reveal of the answer can be known. After all, this position is like a hot potato, it is estimated that they are not willing to take over, an Jiajie, who has been following Lang Dao before, has become the most vocal successor, but now that a few months have passed, he has also disappeared, and the assistant coaches around Lang Dao have also chosen to leave, and Bao Zhuang has a new career and becomes the head coach of the Shenzhen women's volleyball team. At present, there are many opinions on the Internet about who the head coach is, and it has been exposed that Cai Bin, the head coach of the Jiangsu women's volleyball team, is about to serve as the head coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team, but this news has not been confirmed so far. Of course, no matter who the final head coach is, the fans know very clearly in their hearts that Lang Ping will not come back as the head coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team.
