Wang Meng: China's short track speed skating champion, three in and three out of the national team, violent temper makes people love and hate

Wang Meng has really been out of the circle recently!

As a commentary on the short track speed skating competition at the Beijing Winter Olympics, Wang Meng's nagging commentary has been on Weibo's hot search again and again.

Sometimes, as the degree of confrontation of the game deepened, Wang Meng would even stand up and shout the commentary, and when he was excited, he would jump on the table in the director's room and shout!

"My eyes are rulers!"

"It's a team project, not a one-man battle!"

Excited voice, funny words, with her Northeast dialect, giving people the feeling of listening to her explanation, as if listening to cross-talk, the sense of substitution is very strong, for this reason netizens have shouted: "Please weld Wang Meng to death in the commentary seat." ”

What is more interesting is that when Wang Meng explains foreign players, the arrogance that is exclusive to Wang Meng is not only not boring, but also very cute.

When a South Korean teammate fell, Wang Meng:

"What's going on, oops, I sympathize with you!" But I couldn't see what was going on, because my eyes were all on the Chinese players. ”

After watching the replay, Wang Meng: "The fall is good, no, this is a normal phenomenon!" I don't know how to sympathize with them anymore. ”

Who can not love this dangling "eccentricity"?

Especially no matter how proud she is and how eccentric the explanation is, no one thinks that Wang Meng is doing it, because she does have proud capital!

The proud son of heaven has shown amazing talent since he was a child

Born in 1984 in an ordinary family in Qitaihe City, Heilongjiang Province, Wang Meng has a big grin from an early age, playing outside with his friends as soon as school is over.

In her childhood, she often went to the frozen riverside to skate in the winter, and slowly cultivated Wang Meng's interest in skating, which was several hours after a slide.

When Wang Meng was ten years old, Ma Qingzhong, the coach of the sports school, came to Wang Meng's primary school and thought about seeing if there was any material that could be an athlete, but he took a fancy to Wang Meng at a glance.

Wang Meng also began professional skating training.

Wang Meng, who had just entered the sports school, did not have an ice knife suitable for her because she was too young.

Seeing that other children can already skate on the ice rink, she herself does not have the right ice knife to wear, but Wang Meng is in a hurry.

The coach went all over the world to find ice knives for Wang Meng, and when Wang Meng got his ice knife, he was very happy, and he quickly put on the ice knife and entered the ice rink, and the ice knife did not leave his hand after the field, and even slept with the ice knife in his hand.

During this period of training in sports schools, Wang Meng began to show his talent that was different from ordinary people.

For every beginner speed skater, when putting on a skate knife to skate, they will experience the pain of repeatedly grinding their ankles.

Some of the young players will run to the coach and cry for rest, some will cry out for pain while sliding, only Wang Meng does not say a word and insists on training.

Once, Coach Ma Qingzhong noticed that Wang Meng's movements were deformed, and his expression was still grinning, and he hurriedly stopped her and asked her what was wrong.

Wang Meng waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, and turned around to continue training.

The coach asked her to take off the ice knife on the sidelines, and when Wang Meng took off the ice knife, she saw that the scarred area of her ankle had already been worn once, and the blood at the wound was flowing straight down.

Sometimes Wang Meng, who finished training, returned to the house because he was too tired and did not take off his socks and fell asleep.

When she woke up to find that the socks and the wounds on her ankles were glued together, she could only pull the socks that were stuck to the wound little by little.

That kind of severe pain was something that Wang Meng could never forget in his lifetime.

In 1998, Wang Meng, who had extraordinary talent, was naturally recommended to the Heilongjiang Provincial Sports School and became a professional short track speed skater.

Wang Meng, who was in adolescence at the time, began to gain weight, which made her look clumsy when skating, which made her feel very uncomfortable, and even found a coach to say that even if she did not eat or drink, she had to maintain her body.

The coach who taught Wang Meng was named Fan Hongwen, who quickly persuaded Wang Meng to lose weight in a reasonable way, and while making a training plan for her, he encouraged her to do it.

Under the patient guidance of the coach, the 16-year-old Wang Meng made his debut in the National Nine Games and won the bronze medal in the short track speed skating 1500 meters.

It is precisely because of the potential shown in this game that Wang Meng successfully entered the national team.

All the way through the thorns to become the domineering queen of the arena

In 2002, Wang Meng, who had just joined the national team, won the 500-meter short track speed skating championship at the World Junior Championships.

Four years later, at the Winter Olympics in Turin, Wang Meng won her first Olympic gold medal in 500-meter short track speed skating, opening her championship era.

At the 2012 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, Wang Meng, who had just won the gold medal in the 500-meter short track speed skating, suffered from a severe cold, so serious that he could not even speak.

Even in this case, she still fought for the gold medal in the 1000 meters, basically leading the way.

Her performance shocked the national teams and lamented that she was an epoch-making genius.

The race that best shows Wang Meng's leadership over short track speed skaters around the world has to be mentioned at the 2013 World Championships in Austria.

In the 1500m qualifiers, Wang Meng initially adopted the follow-up tactic.

When the game entered the middle of the game and the other players began to accelerate, Wang Meng still followed slowly behind him with his hands behind his back, as if he was walking.

When it was time for the last lap, she suddenly began to exert her strength, directly surpassing all opponents from the outer ring to reach the first position.

Although the other players still struggled to catch up with their arms, they still could not catch up with Wang Meng, who was carrying his hands behind his back.

Before crossing the finish line, the most classic scene appeared.

With the last quarter of a lap to go, Wang Began to slow down, even straightening his waist, gliding forward only by inertia.

Even so, she crossed the finish line nearly 10 metres ahead of second place.

Wang Meng proved his invincibility to the world in the form of a backhand slide.

As she once said, "As long as I'm in a race, they just need to compete for second place." ”

Wang Meng's career can be described as a high song, and she quickly became popular online with her excellent results and unique backhand sliding skills.

Wang Meng has participated in two Winter Olympic Games, won four gold medals, participated in seven world championships, won several championships in multiple competitions, and won a total of up to 77 gold medals, making him a veritable gold medal overlord.

He was expelled twice from the national team for his youthful madness

Wang Meng single-handedly created an era, and the strength and fame of the greatness are beyond doubt.

In particular, she once said enough in front of the media:

"My goal is to kill the Korean team, and every project must kill them so that they can't catch up with me!"

Since 1992, when short-track speed skating became a winter Olympic sport, the confrontation between China and South Korea has never stopped.

Short track speed skating is undoubtedly one of the most representative of South Korea's sportsmanship, but it has met China' fierce rivals.

In order to win the championship, South Korean athletes have repeatedly extended their "black hands" to Chinese players, such as the 2010 World Championships women's speed skating 1000 meters, south Korean athletes fell down, but also did not forget to tie to the Chinese player Zhou Yang, resulting in injuries, had to withdraw from the competition.

In the same year, in the semi-final of the men's 500 meters of the short track speed skating World Cup in Shanghai, the South Korean athlete forcibly overtook and took the Chinese player off the track, causing him to withdraw from the race due to injury.

It can be said that the Korean team has reached a morbid point in order to win. But because of the appearance of Wang Meng, this situation has been completely changed, because Wang Meng's strength is enough to unilaterally crush South Korea.

There is a saying in the industry that the number of years Wang Meng participated in short track speed skating, the Koreans despaired for many years.

Wang Meng's outspoken and straightforward personality has made the majority of netizens very admired and loved.

But genius is also conceited, and she was twice expelled from the national team as a young and crazy person.

The first time was when she first joined the national team.

After winning the championship for the first time, Wang Meng was so happy that he spent tens of thousands of dollars to invite his teammates to dinner to celebrate.

Xin Qingshan, who was the head coach at the time, heard about this and felt that she was too public, so he asked her to come back to the provincial team to calm down for a few days.

After returning to the national team, Wang Meng learned his lesson and never made a similar publicity again.

The second was at the 2007 Changchun Asian Winter Games.

Wang Meng, who had become famous at that time, bluntly said in front of the media that there was a problem with the training method of head coach Li Yan and questioned her coaching ability.

Even on the competition field, after Wang Meng crossed the finish line as the first place, he simply ignored Li Yan on the sidelines.

The issue between the two became the focus of many media attention for a while.

Coupled with Wang Meng's position in the team, it can be said that no one dares to mess with her, she does not train, and the atmosphere of the whole team cannot come up.

However, Li Yan, who had just returned from coaching in the United States, paid great attention to teamwork, so the contradiction between the two became deeper and deeper, and finally after the Asian Winter Games, Li Yan expelled the conceited Wang Meng from the national team in one breath.

After being expelled, Wang Meng naturally lost the opportunity to continue to gallop on the national stage, and the national team also lost Wang Meng's strong fighting ability and led to a decline in performance.

After a period of precipitation, Wang Meng and Li Yan, who had calmed down, understood that their goal was the same, that is, to win glory for the country at the Winter Olympics.

The two reached a settlement after much communication.

In 2008, Li Yan also appointed Wang Meng as the captain of the national team.

Under the training of Li Yan, Wang Meng's strength was improved again, and finally won the 500 meters, 1000 meters and 1500 meters at the Vancouver Winter Olympics, becoming the triple crown.

After winning the championship, Wang Meng prostrated his head to Li Yan on the field, and then the two excitedly hugged each other.

The unhappiness of the past completely dissipated at this moment, and the conceited Wang Meng finally understood that she could succeed not only by herself, but also by the help of many people behind her.

Get involved in a brawl and ruin your career

It's just That Wang Meng's personality seems to indicate that her life will not be so peaceful.

Not long after winning the "Triple Crown", Wang Meng was once again involved in a more serious storm, so that he completely ruined his career.

In July 2011, Wang Meng and his teammates went out drinking during training, only to return to the dormitory at 11 o'clock in the evening.

Due to the late return time, coupled with the fact that Wang Meng and others were drunk because of drinking, they finally had a verbal altercation with the national team leader Wang Chunlu, and the two sides even moved their hands.

Videos of national athletes fighting were posted on the Internet, and for a time there was a boom, and everyone talked about it.

In the eyes of the leaders of the State General Administration of Sport, this is a great scandal for the national team, and the leaders unanimously decided to expel Wang Meng or even suspend him permanently.

This punishment decision is undoubtedly the most torturous for an athlete.

Unable to participate in the game and without a coach around him, Wang Meng had no choice but to go to Canada to continue training.

In the face of such a talented player, Canada naturally has to fight hard and promise her the highest treatment and benefits.

Despite this, Wang Meng did not change his nationality in order to participate in international competitions.

In the case of the national team losing Wang Meng, the performance of short-track speed skating has also declined sharply, without the glory it once had.

For the sake of the national team's performance, Wang Meng, who had been banned for 13 months, was recalled.

And her return once again revived the national team full of blood, and she has won gold medals in various international competitions.

Everyone believes that wang meng in this state will still be the king of skaters around the world in the future Sochi Winter Olympics.

For Wang Meng, standing on the podium of the Winter Olympics again is her expectation, and she trains harder for this.

Just 22 days before the opening of the Sochi Winter Olympics, Wang Meng collided with his teammates during training, resulting in a serious fracture of his right ankle.

Although her condition was treated in a timely and effective manner, she could not return to her peak state and bid farewell to the Sochi Winter Olympics once and for all.

Wang Meng voluntarily submitted his application to leave the team this time and retired from the team.

Return to the national team, change your identity and continue to stand on the ice rink

After retiring from the army, Wang Meng began to slowly disappear from the public's vision.

She has not been idle, she has also partnered with friends to open a company, and has participated in many variety shows, and she will accompany her family in her spare time

And what makes her always inseparable is the ice and snow arena that she loves.

In 2018, Wang Meng took over the position of mentor Li Yan and served as the head coach of the speed skating national training team.

He has also coached Wu Dajing, a popular athlete this year.

It was also at this time that she began to understand the hardships and heartaches of the coaches of that year.

She became much calmer than before, paying more attention to athletes and coaches.

Under her leadership, the Chinese speed skating team won several championships in the competition.

With this excellent answer, Wang Meng was appointed as the head of the coaching team of the speed skating and short track speed skating national team in May of the following year.

But after all, she only has one year of coaching experience, and short track speed skating is an important gold medal winning event in the mainland at the Winter Olympics, and there is no room for mistakes.

The 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics is also imminent, and the national team needs a coach with rich coaching experience.

Although Wang Meng also carried out drastic reforms during his coaching period and achieved a certain degree of effect, he still stepped down as head coach in 2020.

In the past two years, she has participated in many promotional activities of the Beijing Winter Olympics, and also appeared in the Winter Olympics reality show "Winter Dream Covenant".

Whether it is a coach or a promotion, she is also looking for ways to help the Chinese team.

At this year's Beijing Winter Olympics, as a person with many honors in the short track speed skating industry, she also became the first torchbearer of the Winter Olympic Torch Relay.

She also met us again as a guest commentator for the short track speed skating competition at the Beijing Winter Olympics.

Wang Meng used his authentic Northeast accent and professional commentary to bring us a very comfortable viewing experience.

She used her influence to let more people know about and like the sport of short track speed skating.

epilogue

Some people say that geniuses always have their own personality that distinguishes them from others, and Wang Meng is no exception.

Her fiery personality makes her a domineering queen on the playing field, but her simple and direct temper also makes her always fall into the storm of public opinion.

But in any case, all the gold medals and honors she has won for the national team are unshakable.

Her love for short track speed skating and the importance she attaches to the short track speed skating career in mainland China are also obvious to all.

As she once said: "Although I am no longer on the field, I hope that the athletes of our country can continue to win the championship on the field and win glory for the country." ”

From youthful and willful, to spirited, to calm and low-key, Wang Meng has also continued to grow over time and constantly precipitate himself.

Now she is supporting and helping the national team in another way, watching our athletes achieve better results behind the scenes.

Here, I also wish that all the athletes participating in the Beijing Winter Olympics can exert their full strength on the playing field and win more honors for the motherland! #冬奥会 #
