Every Olympic Games attracts the attention of countless people around the world.
Being able to become an Olympic champion and stand on the podium is the dream of many athletes, which is an unparalleled honor.
Winning the Olympic championship is not only about winning glory for your country, but also about the development of individuals after retirement.
Those who perform well are selected to join the national team, those who perform mediocrely, are brushed off or remain unknown for a lifetime.
China has a different model from Europe and the United States in training professional athletes.
This allows many children from ordinary families but athletic talents to receive guidance from professional teachers and then be selected for the national team.
After entering the national team, the training intensity is very large, and the learning time of cultural classes is much less than that of peers.
But the state's policy is also very human: if you win the Olympic championship, you are free to choose to study at institutions of higher learning such as Chinese Min University. There is no need to take the college entrance examination to go directly to a prestigious school, and there is no tuition fee.
However, after the work after retirement, the state does not pack tickets, after free study in famous schools, the future work way out still have to be opened up by themselves.
After many Olympic champions win the gold medal, if there is no remarkable big move after the subsequent retirement, then it is likely to fall into obscurity.
But there are several Olympic champions who have long since retired, who have been active in everyone's sight and often appear in the media, such as Liu Xuan, Fu Mingxia, Guo Jingjing, and Zhang Yining.
After Liu Xuan retired, his entry into the entertainment industry was very smooth and his marriage was also very happy;
In 2002, at the age of 24, Fu Mingxia married 50-year-old Hong Kong Financial Secretary Leung Kam-sung.
Diving queen Guo Jingjing married Fok Kai-gang, the eldest grandson of Hong Kong's Fok Ying Tung, in 2012, who is 2 years older than her.
The next three Olympic champions have a characteristic, that is, they are all married to Hong Kong rich people.
Zhang Yining's husband Xu Wei was originally in Beijing, but after marriage, he settled in Hong Kong, so he also classified as a rich man in Hong Kong.
These three Olympic champions, another feature, is that the appearance and height are superior.
It seems that when Hong Kong rich people choose their spouses, in addition to valuing the strength of Olympic champions, they also pay more attention to appearance.
Let's take a look at what kind of rich people this Olympic champion married.
Fu Mingxia was born in 1978 in an ordinary family in Wuhan, Hubei Province, and her parents worked in the fleet of Hubei Provincial Power Transmission and Transformation Company.
In 1984, at the age of 6, Fu Mingxia joined the gymnastics team.
In 1989, Fu Mingxia entered the national team.
In that year, she participated in the diving competition of the 2nd National Youth Games, and Fu Mingxia, as a rookie, achieved the fifth place in the women's 10-meter platform.
Since then, her athletic career has been hanging all the way:
1992 Barcelona Olympics Women's 10m Platform Champion.
1996 Atlanta Olympics Women's 10m Platform, 3m Springboard Champion.
After winning the championship in 1996, Fu Mingxia announced her retirement the following year (1997), when she was only 19 years old, which made many people not understand at the time.
In 1997, Fu Mingxia entered the School of Economics and Management of Tsinghua University to make up for the lack of culture in the past.
It didn't take long for the national team to prepare for the 2000 Sydney Olympics.
At that time, the most powerful athlete of the national diving team was Guo Jingjing, in order to make it safer for China to win the gold medal, Fu Mingxia's mentor and coach persuaded her to participate in the Olympic Games again and win glory for the country.
Fu Mingxia was a person who knew how to repay the favor, so she didn't even think about it, and agreed.
In this way, Fu Mingxia, who was originally studying at the university, returned to the training ground to participate in training.
After nine months of hard training, she won the women's 3m springboard singles title at the Sydney Olympics.
After winning diving at the Sydney Olympics, Fu was invited to the Grand Hyatt Hong Kong In March 2001 to attend the Distinguished Leadership Awards Ceremony.
Fu Mingxia was 23 years old at the time, and on that day, she wore a black evening dress to the ceremony, and in order to match the evening dress, she also matched a pair of stiletto high heels.
For such occasions, Fu Mingxia, who is accustomed to wearing sportswear, seems a little uncomfortable.
Just as she was in a daze, a man sitting next to her dressed as a gentleman, chatted politely with her, and taught her to play the video game of "mine sweeping."
And this person was Leung Kam-sung, who was Hong Kong's Financial Secretary at the time, when Leung Kam-song was 49 years old, 26 years older than Fu Mingxia.
Liang Jinsong has 9 brothers and sisters, and his family was very poor when he was a child.
He was very smart and studied very hard, and finally he was admitted to the University of Hong Kong with excellent results.
Dong Haoyun, the king of the ship, once transformed one of his giant ships into a maritime university, and then invited outstanding scholars to travel around the world to study.
Liang Jinsong was fortunate to be one of them, and in those six months, his vision and connections were greatly improved.
After graduation, Liang Jinsong joined Citibank, starting as an ordinary trader, and excellent people shine everywhere.
More than 20 years later, Leung went from being an ordinary clerk to becoming the general manager of Citibank Hong Kong.
After leaving Citibank, he joined JPMorgan Chase, where his annual salary has reached $13 million.
Mr Tung (son of Ship King Dong Haoyun) invited Leung Kam-song to take up the post of Financial Secretary.
The Financial Secretary's annual salary is only 2.45 million, which is much lower than JPMorgan's annual salary, but Leung Kam-song, impressed by Mr Tung's character and embarrassed, he still agreed to do something for Hong Kong.
Liang Jinsong's career has soared all the way, but he has always had a regret, that is, he has been married for many years and still has not given birth to a son and a half daughter with his wife.
His first wife, a classmate from college, ended up divorcing in 1998 because she didn't have children.
After the divorce, Liang Jinsong was photographed by the media driving his Porsche sports car to transport TVB actress Chen Huishan to and from work.
Chen Huishan later divorced her husband in 2001, and it is not known whether it was related to this, but he and Chen Huishan did not follow up later.
It wasn't until 2001 that Liang Jinsong met Fu Mingxia, a 26-year-old Wuhan girl at a dinner party.
Fate is so wonderful, two people with completely different life and learning experiences, the age gap is so large, they actually look at each other and fall in love.
Later, the two people were met at a small restaurant in Beijing, and the relationship between the two people was exposed.
Guo Jingjing's husband's family is the most mineral.
Because Huo Qigang was born in the famous Huo Yingdong family, and Huo Qigang was still the eldest grandson.
Fok Yingdong donated 10 billion yuan to the mainland in his early years, which shows that the family has a lot of money.
After Huo Yingdong's death, he left behind about 30 billion yuan of family property. Huo Yingdong had three sons with yuan, the eldest son was Huo Zhenting, who was Huo Qigang's father.
Huo Qigang was born in 1979, only 2 years older than Guo Jingjing, and is considered to be a peer.
Before Huo Qigang fell in love with Guo Jingjing, he successively patted Lu Qingxin and Lu Tian'er, two famous women.
Lu Tian'er's father is Lu Runsen, chairman of the South China Sports Association, but somehow, in the end, he did not achieve positive results.
At the 2004 Athens Olympic Games, Huo Qigang was ordered by his father to help at the Olympic Games.
At that time, as an audience, he saw Guo Jingjing wearing a swimsuit, outlining a slim body shape, and the diving action was extremely elegant and smooth.
Guo Jingjing was already a famous diving queen at this time, and she won gold medals on the field for many times on behalf of the country.
It was this amazing glimpse that made the little rabbit in Huo Qigang's heart begin to jump, and he felt that this diving goddess tugged at his heartstrings.
After that, Huo Qi just began to teach himself Chinese, as long as it was Guo Jingjing's competition, Huo Qigang always came to the scene to cheer, and finally won Guo Jingjing's heart.
After the Beijing Olympic Games, Guo Jingjing went to Chinese Min University to study business administration.
She also traveled to England to study English around the London Olympics, and she also studied etiquette before the big wedding.
Unlike many girls who hope to marry into the rich, Guo Jingjing's wish before falling in love with Huo Qigang is: I want to marry love.
The appearance of Huo Qigang first made Guo Jingjing feel love, but Huo Qigang's identity as a giant made this love more romantic, and it was even more unnecessary to fall into the consumption of chai rice oil and salt.
In 2012, Huo Qigang and Guo Jingjing held a lavish century wedding.
Zhang Yining was born in 1981 in an ordinary family in a hutong in Beijing.
Her mother, Wang Fengying, was a drug administrator at a hospital in Beijing, and her father worked in a factory with little income.
When I was a child, Zhang Yining's family of three lived in a 15-square-meter bungalow.
Zhang Yining has shown a love of sports since she was a child, starting to practice at the age of 4 and a half, and entering the national team at the age of 12, winning a total of 19 world championships.
At the 2004 Athens Olympic Games and the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, Zhang Yining won the gold medals in women's singles and women's doubles.
After Deng Yaping, he became another athlete who won 4 gold medals in Olympic table tennis.
After the 2008 Olympics, Zhang Yining was 27 years old and faced the problem of retirement.
In October of that year, Zhang Yining met Xu Wei, a financial elite, under the introduction of gymnastics Olympic champion Ma Yanhong.
The two quickly fell in love, after Xu Wei and star Yuan Li fell in love for 12 years, but Yuan Li was busy with his acting career, the two have not been married, and broke up in 2005.
Zhang Yining and Xu Wen were engaged after knowing each other for 4 months, and a grand wedding was held in Hong Kong the following year.
Xu Wei was born in Beijing in 1961 to intellectual parents.
He is 20 years older than Zhang Yining.
Xu Wei graduated from Nanjing Audit University in his early years and then went to Japan to study.
After graduation, he worked in the Investment Bank on Wall Street for several years, and then returned to China to develop, successively serving as the president of "Net Hunt" China, the chairman of e-commerce network, and the president of 8848.
Xu Wei played a hedge fund on Wall Street in the United States, and after returning to China, he was a little famous in the entire financial industry.
Xu Wei has a number of companies in Beijing and Hong Kong, and has invested in many properties in Beijing and Hong Kong. It is estimated that his net worth is at least 10 billion or more.
Although Zhang Yining is married to such a wealthy businessman, she still maintains her true colors in life.
Once she was photographed by the Hong Kong media walking home from a supermarket carrying a plastic bag.
The media hyped up, saying that Xu Wei may have encountered a crisis in his career, which led to Zhang Yining's savings.
After Xu Wei learned about it, he said to her: When you go to the supermarket in the future, you can let the driver pick you up, or you can take a taxi.
But Zhang Yining replied very calmly:
"The supermarket is so close to home, there is no need to take a taxi, and you can walk back and forth to exercise.
Why can't I live my life as I wish?
Why live in the eyes of others? ”
This is the same as some celebrities who can't move to show their own luxury cars and mansions, which is almost like two people.
Not showing off wealth, low-key life, no fear of the outside world's eyes, pay attention to the inner feelings, Zhang Yining lived sober enough, but also free enough.
Guo Jingjing is the happiest
Zhang Yining's husband is 20 years older than her, and Fu Mingxia's husband is 26 years older than her, which can be said to have a "generation gap".
Guo Jingjing's husband is only 2 years older than her, basically the same age.
Although Guo Jingjing is married to a veteran tycoon in Hong Kong, whether it is her father-in-law, mother-in-law, or her rich husband, she is very satisfied.
On the wedding day, Huo Zhenting said in front of many guests: Thank you Guo Jingjing for "marrying" to our home.
On the one hand, it shows that Guo Jingjing is very good, she is an Olympic champion.
On the other hand, it shows the low-key and humility of a rich man, who knows the historical lesson of no more than three generations of wealth, and if the Huo family wants to continue to be brilliant, it must have a qualified heir to take on the heavy responsibility.
This remark gave Guo Jingjing a lot of face in front of many big people with heads and faces in Hong Kong.
After Guo Jingjing married into the Huo family, Huo Zhenting was interviewed by the media, and he was always full of praise for his daughter-in-law Guo Jingjing, directly saying: "Jingjing has always been excellent."
Mother-in-law Zhu Lingling praised Guo Jingjing many times:
"Guo Jingjing in my mind is a hundred points",
"Didn't waste my childhood, trained hard and was successful, and very Sven",
"Very frugal, very good at educating children"...
After getting married, a reporter asked Guo Jingjing's mother-in-law Zhu Lingling, hoping that Guo Jingjing would have several children.
Zhu Lingling replied: "They know best about this aspect, they decide for themselves, but it is very hard to take care of children, and they must know the responsibility." ”
Before marrying Guo Jingjing, Huo Qigang had to go to high-end restaurants for dinner, but after marrying Guo Jingjing, Huo Qigang also became fond of going to some small street restaurants.
Huo Qigang also became more and more grounded, when Huo Qigang arrived in Beijing for a meeting, a person came, without an assistant or bodyguard. The shoes on the feet are safe-stepping.
Not long ago, Huo Qigang was elected as a member of parliament, and after the successful election, Guo Jingjing came to the stage at the first time to send flowers to her husband Huo Qigang.
In 2018, Guo Jingjing also served as the chairman of nansha culture in the Huo family's family business, taking over the Huo family industry for the first time, which shows that the family attaches great importance to her.
In 2021, she also served as an Olympic judge, going to Tokyo, Japan, on a business trip, huo Qigang could not go with her, and worked as a grandfather at home.
A good marriage is to nourish each other, support each other, and achieve each other, not to blindly take or unilaterally give.
The lowest key is Fu Mingxia
After Fu Mingxia got married, she basically rarely appeared in front of the media.
She got married and had three children in succession, and chose to bring her own children, of course, there is a nanny at home.
The former highly anticipated Olympic champion, washed her hands for soup after marriage, and circled around her children every day, she adapted well.
Perhaps it is the strong training from childhood to adulthood and year-round that makes her cherish the rare leisure and relaxation time, so she does not feel that she is returning to family care or being overkill.
She looked at the outside world questioning why she chose an old man to marry at a young age.
She said:
"I like men with mature minds,
I am a lazy person, I don't worry much about the details of life, and I don't plan for the future, but I can do the things in front of me;
But Kinsong was my big butler, and with him, he gave me enough security that I could live a very easy and casual life. "
Fu Mingxia's early retirement, there is another reason, that is, long-term training, resulting in fu Mingxia's retina problems. If she continues to jump, what awaits her is "blindness".
Retinal problems caused by frequent training did not only happen to her, but also her mentor and Guo Jingjing.
Leung Kam-song is also a man with a head and a face in Hong Kong, from the official to the Financial Secretary, with a wide network of contacts and accumulating a lot of wealth over the decades.
And I have never had children before, so I am very much looking forward to having my own child.
And Fu Mingxia just happened to like children very much, even giving birth to 3, and even saying that four was not too much.
It can be said that after Fu Mingxia gets married, she does not have to worry about the economy, everything is arranged by her husband, and she only needs to accompany a few children.
After fu mingxia married, she lived with her husband in a mansion in Repulse Bay, and many people questioned that she married Liang Jinsong, who was so much older because of money.
In fact, before retiring from retirement, Fu Mingxia had been promoted from diving queen to advertising queen.
In 2001, according to media reports, Fu Mingxia's remuneration for endorsing Sprite was as high as 5 million yuan!
Some media have estimated that Fu Mingxia's net worth is about 15 million yuan.
Afterwards, Fu Mingxia herself denied it, but admitted that her net worth at that time was 7 figures, and she was constantly moving closer to 8 figures.
In 2001, the net worth was 7 figures, which is not a small number. You should know that at that time, a house in Shenzhen only needed hundreds of thousands.
It can be seen that at that time, Fu Mingxia was not short of money.
In fact, it doesn't matter what the outside world says, after all, life is your own life.
Fu Mingxia also lived soberly enough to know what she really wanted.
In recent years, Fu Mingxia has rarely appeared in the public eye, and occasionally goes abroad, which also seems to be a lot of blessings.
It can be said that after she got married, she completely quit her diving career and concentrated on her family and children.
Liang Jinsong would accompany Fu Mingxia to go shopping. And Fu Mingxia is also willing to "wash her hands and make soup" for her husband and children at home, even if there is a nanny at home, she is also willing to do it herself.
But everyone has the right to choose their lives, or bless her.
The most fulfilling is Zhang Yining
After Zhang Yining married Xu Wei, a financial talent, the main focus was still on family and children.
However, Zhang Yining has a very good mother, since the birth of the child, she has traveled from Beijing to Hong Kong to help her daughter with the child.
In this way, Zhang Yining can safely take care of the work.
After marriage, Zhang Yining rarely appeared in the public eye, but in fact, she did not give up her table tennis career.
After graduating from graduate school (when the baby was more than 1 year old), she entered the China Table Tennis Academy in Shanghai, working as an assistant to the dean Shi Zhihao.
At the same time, Zhang Yining also participated in the commentary of many professional events.
In June 2014, Zhang Yining also went to Luxembourg, Europe, to work as a coach.
She also often watches the national table tennis competition in the stands to cheer for her teachers and sisters.
After having children, Zhang Yining often appeared at the scene of the game with her daughter, and her relationship with the players was very good in private.
Zhang Yining's husband Xu Wei also likes sports and also likes horse racing.
Zhang Yining and her husband once went to watch a horse race together, because Xu Wei's bmw colt also participated in the race.
In the more than ten years of marriage, the two have never had any discord, and the husband of a rich businessman has also spread no scandals.
After 8 years of marriage, Zhang Yining said in an interview: "Every time When Xu Wei travels on business, as soon as he calls, he still has a feeling of first love. ”
Zhang Yining said in the interview that Xu Wei took great care of her, and when she gave birth to a child, her husband took more than 50 days off to take care of her.
After Zhang Yining got married, her temperament became better and better. A good marriage can nourish a woman, and it seems that this is true.
However, this world champion also has troubles, that is, as an Olympic champion, others can't afford to hire such a personal trainer, she teaches her baby to play table tennis for free at home, but her baby is not much interested in table tennis!
So, the Olympic champion taught his children and was very broken.
Zhang Yining released her first update on the short video platform last year, and it rose millions of fans overnight.
Although the "Great Demon King" has long ceased to be in the jianghu, his influence is still there, and there are many people who like her.
The ancients said: "Pair up with one relative, prosper for three generations, marry the wrong one, and corrupt the nine generations of roots." ”
All three Olympic champions married quality men shortly after retiring, and their marriages were stable.
Their husbands are all powerful factions, not rich second generations who enjoy their success, and they are also very dedicated.
As Olympic champions, they are not arrogant and have different lives after marriage:
Some people are low-key, hardly appear in the public eye, willing to wash their hands to make soup and take care of children.
After giving birth, some people still participate in sports and continue to play their expertise.
Some frequently appear in the media to contribute to the husband's career.
Either way, they all make choices about their lives at the right time, choose to have children at the right age, and take on the burden of raising children.
Bing Xin once said: "A good family is the root of all happiness and strength." ”
After winning the Olympic championship, they showed the side of ordinary people, feeling that no matter how much they achieved, the family was very important;
After having children, they also show an ordinary mother's side in raising children.
