In 2004, reporters surrounded Lang Ping, the head coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team at the time, and the sound of photographs and questions was endless, and the flash made people's eyes a little open.
There have been countless interviews in the past, and Lang Ping's mood has changed with the changes in the event, from happiness after winning the championship to frustration when he loses.
But this time, Lang Ping's heart was a completely different mood, her expression seemed to be very flat, but the straight fingers could still see that her heart was not calm.
Lang Ping, who was interviewed
Some reporters are also more euphemistic: "Please talk about the transfer of women's volleyball members, can you?" ”
Some reporters simply went straight to the point: "Can you elaborate on the recent incident of Zhang Jinwen beating the aunt of the bathhouse?" ”
More reporters directly asked: "There is news that Zhang Jinwen is a volleyball genius, so he will not be punished, right?" ”
Lang Ping, who was very windy and extremely determined in the arena, showed a hint of hesitation on her face at this time, she knew that this sentence had to be said, but it was still a little difficult to be cruel.
Lang Ping
After coming over for a while, Lang Ping made up his mind in pain, and finally squeezed out a sentence, his voice was not loud but very powerful: "As long as I am here, I will never hire Zhang Jinwen." ”
The four words "never hired" seem to be a little too serious.
However, I have to say that these four words also let the reporters on the spot understand Lang Ping's determination, and the social public opinion that is in the dust and the sun can finally be temporarily ended.
However, this also declares that the national team career of women's volleyball genius Zhang Jinwen has come to an end.
Zhang Jinwen
What makes this bó l'epicago? What is it that can make Lang Ping, who loves him as much as his life, give up such a genius girl?
It all started in 1994.
Strong coaches are targeting talented teens
After Lang Pingren retired, the Chinese women's volleyball team was silent for nearly ten years, defeated again and again, the glory of the Chinese women's volleyball team in the past seems to have become history, everyone is anxious, but there is nothing they can do.
In 1994, at the gracious invitation of his mentor Yuan Weimin, Lang Ping resigned as a high-paid coach of the American women's volleyball team, gave up the opportunity to accompany his daughter, and returned to the Chinese women's volleyball team with a lonely courage.
Yuan Weimin
No one can know whether the Chinese women's volleyball team can return to the peak, and no one knows whether the iron hammer of the past can take the Chinese women's volleyball team back to the Olympic Games.
In the face of the loose team and the demoralized team members, Lang Ping knew that he had a heavy responsibility, and every step required great effort and caution.
Lang Ping believes that the Chinese women's volleyball team urgently needs to inject fresh blood and reinvigorate its strength at that time in order to possibly win the crown in the World Cup and olympic games in the near future.
Lang Ping, who is full of heavy responsibilities, is thirsty for talent, and in addition to stepping up training, she is also constantly looking for better players.
Female volleyball
At the grand opening of the 1995 World Youth Championships, Zhang Jinwen from Jiangsu team led his teammates to shine at the World Youth Championships.
Her bouncing prowess, as well as her confidence and skill on the pitch, is second to none in the country.
Seeing such a good seedling, Lang Ping was of course very moved, and of course, Lang Ping threw an olive branch to Zhang Jinwen.
Of course, for any athlete, entering the national team is the best choice, and Lang Ping, when recruiting her, made it clear that he would tailor a set of tactics for her.
In 1995, when Zhang Jinwen first entered the national team, he missed the Atlanta Olympic Games because of appendicitis, but the Chinese women's volleyball team at that time still won the runner-up.
Although it is the runner-up, it can already be seen that in just one year, under the leadership of Lang Ping, the Chinese team has gradually returned to the state.
Zhang Jinwen, who was holding back a lot of energy, quickly threw herself into training after recovering from her illness, and under the guidance of Lang Ping, her progress was very rapid.
Lang Ping personally tailored the tactics for Zhang Jinwen, and specially tailored to her tactics, and the selected team members played a very important role.
Lang Ping received applause and cheers
In 1998, the Chinese team won the second place in the World Championships, and soon after, it won many championships.
It can be said that with the participation of Zhang Jinwen, the Chinese women's volleyball team almost returned to the peak, and Zhang Jinwen was once known as Lang Ping's "love disciple".
Many people think that she is likely to be the second Lang Ping, as the darling of the sports industry, there are countless reports on her.
In a place that emphasizes strength, Zhang Jinwen is naturally highly respected.
Of course, as the main attack of the volleyball team, Zhang Jinwen is indeed a very strong volleyball player, and the Chinese team is indeed getting better and better under her leadership.
Zhang Jinwen and Lang Ping
After Zhang Jinwen lived up to expectations and won one eye-catching result after another, she also became a Chinese women's volleyball team, a rising star, and when she mentioned the Chinese women's volleyball team, she must take a name of Zhang Jinwen.
The attention of popularity will naturally rise, saying that good things do not go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, and when her achievements are sought after by everyone, her words and deeds will also be magnified countless times.
At that time, Zhang Jinwen, who became famous at a young age, lacked maturity and introspection, with amazing talent, but also had a fatal weakness.
Zhang Jinwen, who was very famous at that time, gradually began to flutter up, in her opinion, the Chinese women's volleyball team can have its current status, most of the credit should be attributed to herself, and there is naturally some disrespect for her teammates between words, and even support her teammates to do some small work for her.
Women's volleyball training ground
It is said that at that time, many team members dared to be angry at Zhang Jinwen's arrogance.
But no one dared to offend this new volleyball star, after all, even the tactics at that time were specially formulated for Zhang Jinwen, and others were also selected to better cooperate with her.
But don't forget, although the volleyball main attacker is very powerful, as a team competition, the cooperation between teammates is also very important.
The shower event ends the dream of volleyball
In the volleyball team, Zhang Jinwen was only able to convince Lang Ping.
Lang Ping training
What Lang Ping said, Zhang Jinwen could still listen to a few words.
Lang Ping has tried more than once to pull the other party's cognition to the right path for this somewhat "small tempered" team member, and even did not hesitate to name Zhang Jinwen in public, but Zhang Jinwen seems to have insisted on going farther and farther.
Lang Ping had regretted more than once that he did not correct Zhang Jinwen's small temper in time, so that the national team lost a strong boost, and Zhang Jinwen also paid a huge price for the arrogance and arrogance at that time.
No matter how Zhang Jinwen is in the volleyball team, the people as a member of the team will not provoke her, at most some people can't see it and let Lang Ping come out to preside over justice, and the matter will pass.
Women's volleyball training
But in daily life, who is more noble than whom? The turning point in Zhang Jinwen's life happened in 2004.
As always, all the women's volleyball players who had done a day of training went into the bathroom.
When everyone was eager to finish cleaning and go back to rest, there was a sudden quarrel in the bathroom.
By the time everyone reacted, Zhang Jinwen had already started to move his hands with an aunt in the bathroom.
Zhang Jinwen, who has been playing volleyball training for many years, naturally will not suffer losses, in this "war", Zhang Jinwen slightly hung up the lottery, but the other party paid the price of fracture.
The women's volleyball team is training
Of course, the specific circumstances are no longer known.
From the results back, in the end, this matter did not go to court, and Zhang Jinwen did not bear any serious legal responsibility. Presumably it was slippery in the bathroom, and the two sides shoved each other and lost their hands.
By the time Lang Ping arrived, the "battle" was over, and the wounded were taken to the hospital.
When Lang Ping asked the root cause of the matter, Zhang Jinwen suddenly found that the two people were just fighting for a shower.
Shower
The Chinese women's volleyball training hall, a shower, two parties fought hard, and even one side also entered the hospital, things seem to be slightly dramatic, although the network at that time was not developed, but the news spread quickly.
As the Chinese women's volleyball team that everyone pays attention to, it is a responsibility and an honor to win glory for the country, but it is also necessary to be blamed for the scandal, because of Zhang Jinwen's impulsiveness, the face of the Chinese women's volleyball team is almost swept away.
Lang Ping made up his mind and announced that Zhang Jinwen would be expelled from the national team.
Zhang Jinwen's technology is certainly very rare, but if this matter is exposed, how far can the Chinese women's volleyball team go in the future?
When pressed by the reporter, although Lang Ping was very sad, she still firmly announced her decision and interrupted this "teacher-student relationship".
Lang Ping lost her beloved apprentice bitterly, and for a long time, it was difficult for her to get out.
Soon after, Lang Ping gathered all the women's volleyball players together and held a meeting.
This meeting attended by all the staff was a review meeting of Lang Ping's own, and it was also a rule-making meeting.
At the meeting, Lang Ping set an iron rule: there are people with technology and no character, and the national team will never use it!
It is also such an iron rule that created the later Chinese women's volleyball team, which is not only famous for its technology, but also praised for its unity.
After years of grievances, it is good again
There are many people in the Chinese women's volleyball team, but only Zhang Jinwen is expelled, and this "first" is not only not honorable, but also very humiliating.
Zhang Jinwen is a champion seedling cultivated by Lang Ping, with a promising future, but he has interrupted his career.
The scene of the women's volleyball team winning the championship
If Zhang Jinwen knew his willfulness at that time, he would bring her such a result, afraid that even if he was wronged again, he would tolerate it, but things had already happened and could not be repaired.
At that time, it was not that no one went to lang ping to intercede, after all, Zhang Jinwen's talent was really good, or it cost the country a lot of money to cultivate.
Moreover, Lang Ping's dedication to her is also well known.
But Lang Ping did not once let go, when she was a team member, she was strict with herself, and now she is equally strict with her own team members.
Lang Ping and the women's volleyball team
The title of "iron hammer" that Lang Ping has is not only her skill, but also because of her strong belief.
And the decisions made by Lang Ping, almost no one can change.
In fact, at the beginning, even Zhang Jinwen himself had a glimmer of hope, but when Zhang Jinwen saw Lang Ping's words "never hired" on TV, he burst into tears.
At that moment, she knew that she was afraid that she would never have the opportunity to return to the national team again.
A long time later, Zhang Jinwen recalled that on the day she left the national team training hall, looking at the way everyone rushed to train, she seemed to have lost a very important thing, and her heart was very flustered.
But while sitting in the departing car, she double-checked and didn't leave anything behind.
A long time later, when she saw the Chinese women's volleyball team win the championship on TV, she found that what she was missing was a championship of her own.
Zhang Jinwen, who left the national team, has indeed been depressed for a while, maybe only the ups and downs of life will change a person, she thinks, and is also self-examining.
Zhang Jinwen participated
Soon after, she began to pick herself up and leave the national team, but she didn't have to leave the volleyball she loved.
If the past honor will eventually become a cloud of smoke, only its own technology will not be lost.
So she came to a school in Nanjing and worked as a coach for the volleyball team.
Although the children in the school were very poor in technology at that time, Zhang Jinwen paid full patience and led the small team members all the way to cut through the thorns and win many championships.
Zhang Jinwen as a coach
Being removed from the national team is a hurdle for her and a starting point for her to start again.
And when he really became a coach, Zhang Jinwen seemed to realize that Coach Lang Ping had good intentions for himself.
Many years later, Zhang Jinwen, who was admitted to the school as a professor, in an interview, when asked by reporters what efforts she made for the team, she said: "You can't just mention me, the honor belongs to the whole group." ”
If failure is not only painful, the biggest role is probably to make people grow.
Zhang Jinwen and students
Many years ago, probably no one thought that the arrogant and invincible little girl would eventually become so calm and peaceful.
But once he returned to the field, when cheering for the players, Zhang Jinwen still seemed to be able to see the shadow of the little girl who loved volleyball very much.
While she and the team members held the trophy together, the champion who had lost in the national team seemed to be back to her again.
In her career, she also met the person who could join her for a lifetime, the other party was also a person who loved volleyball, and the two eventually returned to a dull life.
Zhang Jinwen and her husband
On the other hand, although Lang Ping lost a beloved apprentice, the strength of the national team after the rectification of the wind and discipline was directly connected to several steps. For a long time, the Chinese women's volleyball team has been revitalized.
The 2015 Asian Championship champion, the World Cup champion of the same year, the Olympic champion of 16 years, one trophy after another waiting for the Chinese women's volleyball girls, but also waiting for Lang Ping.
The dream of the championship that she and Zhang Jinwen lost at the same time finally returned to her side again.
Lang Ping used his eight years to cultivate several champion seedlings for the Chinese women's volleyball team, and dedicated all his energy to the Chinese women's volleyball team.
Later, Lang Ping met Zhang Jinwen again, and the two people spanned more than ten years with a look, and also let the other party understand that they had already put it down.
Time is still rotating, and the spirit of the Chinese women's volleyball team continues.
We believe that in the future, the Chinese women's volleyball team will go further, and the spirit of Lang Ping will be passed down from generation to generation.
