The Olympic Games are in full swing, Chinese athletes are all working the field, many of them are still injured in battle, just to win honor for the motherland, this spirit and perseverance are touching, their patriotic feelings are worthy of our eternal learning. But there are also a small number of people who turn their backs on the motherland for their own selfish interests, and the tennis player Hu Na is one of them. In 1982, she went to the United States to compete and did not return, pit coaches and teammates, but 32 years later she returned to China to seek gold.
When it comes to China's female netizen players, many people first think that it may be four golden flowers, among which Li Na's performance is the most prominent, and she has won the women's singles championship of the French Open and the Australian Open, and is a veritable sister of the Chinese tennis world. Compared to Li Na, Hu Na is much less famous, but in the early 1980s, she was a leading figure in Chinese women's tennis. Hu Na was born in 1963 when her maternal grandfather was working as a coach on the Sichuan tennis team.
Under the influence of her maternal grandfather, Hu Na began practicing tennis at the age of four and entered the Sichuan team a few years later. With outstanding talent and hard training, Hu Na's performance has improved by leaps and bounds, and at the age of 15, she won the national junior women's singles championship. Shortly thereafter, Hu Na was transferred to the national team and was trained as a key seedling. The training and security conditions of the national team are much better than those of the provincial team, and under the careful guidance of the coach, Hu Na's skills have made great progress, and soon won the Asian women's singles championship, becoming the leader of the Chinese women's tennis world at that time.
At that time, our country was not rich, and the funds of the tennis team were very limited, but in order to cultivate Hu Na, the national team took her to Mei mo many times to study, and also let her play many youth tournaments in the United States, Hu Na played well and won two championships. The experience of going to the United States has broadened Hu Na's horizons and increased her experience in the competition. But the country's good intentions Hu Na did not appreciate, but lost in the life of the United States.
When she saw that the training conditions in the United States were better than in China, and the best players could drive cars and live in bungalows, Hu Na's mentality was unbalanced, and she was determined to live such a life and began to prepare for defection. Soon the opportunity came, in 1982, the Chinese women's tennis team went to the United States to participate in the Confederations Cup, hu na was the absolute main force. In the first round of the game, the Chinese team easily defeated Japan, but in the second round against Germany, Hu Na suddenly did not quit, and the coach thought that she had an accident and looked around.
Soon after, Huna received news that she was staying in the United States, which had a very negative impact on the national team that was preparing to play and eventually lost to Germany. In addition, Hu Na's defection also killed the coach and teammates, and coach Shen Jianqiu, who was in charge of the women's team, and Li Xinyi, a player who lived with Hu Na during the game, both left the national team. Huna then betrayed her country and joined the American nationality, starting to play junior games for the American team, and soon became a professional player.
In her 8-year career as a professional player, Hu Na has participated in 16 Grand Slam tournaments, the best result being the third round of Wimbledon. In 1992, Hu Na retired due to injury, and due to the average Grand Slam record, she received very little bonus, not only did not live the life she wanted, but also fell into a difficult situation. During this time, her brother also died unexpectedly, which gave her a big blow. Four years later, Hu Na, who could not live in the United States, moved to Taiwan to make a living by opening a tennis club and explaining tennis matches.
Later, Hu Na changed her career to become a painter and held her own high-profile exhibition in Beijing in 2014, looking like a successful person, a full 32 years after she defected in the competition. During the exhibition, some people repeated the old story, and Hu Na did not apologize for her original behavior, nor did she apologize to the coaches and teammates who were killed by her, but only defended that she was young at the time and only wanted to go abroad to play. The inferior quality of its people can be seen from this.
