Nowadays, many athletes join different nationalities in search of better development. People are more or less dissatisfied with this phenomenon, but most people can understand it. But some naturalized athletes have gone a little too far. Today's topic is about Li Mingyang, a female basketball player that people can't understand.
In 1994, a baby girl named Li Mingyang was born in Jilin. She was born into an ordinary family in Li Mingyang, but she has amazing athletic talent.
As Li Mingyang grew up, her parents discovered her developed motor nerves and vigorously supported Li Mingyang's development in sports. With the support of his parents, Li Mingyang joined the Chinese women's basketball team at an early age.
In 2010, at the age of 16, Li Mingyang participated in the World Youth Championships with the national team. Li Mingyang not only developed her motor nerves, but her physical condition is also one of her strengths. In the year she competed in Li Mingyang, she had already reached a height of 1.96 meters.
With this special advantage, Li Mingyang scored 17 points for the women's basketball team with his advantage, although he did not play a leading role in the World Youth Championship at the time, helping the national team defeat the former champion Spain women's basketball team.
When we played in the World Youth Championship, our country and the Spanish women's basketball team played. Because the female players of the Spanish team are tall, the Spanish team has a great advantage compared with the women's basketball team in the mainland. But Li Mingyang did not flinch. As a striker, she is undaunted and brave. It ended with the victory of the Chinese team, and after that game, many people began to get to know Li Mingyang.
The "Li Mingyang Incident" of that year made many people angry. Jilin female athlete Li Mingyang is the main force of the national youth team. At the age of 17, she reached 190, and she was called a basketball genius. She led China to defeat the formidable Spanish team at the U17 World Cup. Great potential is shown.
However, while Li Mingyang was on leave due to injury, Japan sent a scout disguised as a reporter to secretly approach Li Mingyang, secretly complete her work, and secretly take her to Japan.
At the end of the holiday, Li Mingyang was lost, and neither the coach nor the players could find her. Later, a team member found out that she had been poached by a Japanese club. But at this time, she was still a registered member of the Beijing team, and she changed her nationality, which was really disgraceful.
Lee ming-yang came to Japan and became a member of the Japanese women's basketball team. In order to join, Li Mingyang changed his nationality, and Li Mingyang wanted to join Japan as soon as possible to change his nationality. In 2011, he even recognized Akihiro Sugiyama, a minister of the Japanese Chanson Corporation, as his michel platini, and changed his name to "Wakamatsu Miyuki Sugiyama." When China contacted Li Mingyang, Li Mingyang had changed his nationality and joined the Japanese women's basketball team. This made Li Mingyang's coach very sad and cursed Li Mingyang, believing that Li Mingyang was a traitor.
He Jun, who was the head coach of the national youth team at the time, later recalled: He was just an ordinary child at that time, smart and never out of line. The youth team is really in poor shape, but I've never heard her complain. When she first joined the team, Li Mingyang was less than a handful of 8 points, but she quickly grew to 1 meter 94, which also attracted the attention of her superiors. She and Zhang Liting of the Bayi team are both Chen Nan's successors, which shows the importance we attach to them.
After confirming that she had transferred to Japan, the Japanese club said Li Mingyang had acquired Japanese citizenship. She quickly changed her nationality and name and adopted a wealthy Japanese as her adoptive father. It can be seen that she is determined to naturalize the Japanese women's basketball team. In fact, before Li Mingyang, some male and female basketball players were naturalized by the Japan Basketball Association, which is normal. However, the reason why Li Mingyang has attracted much attention is not because she chose naturalization, but because she chose naturalization during her time in the team.
Therefore, in the eyes of many people, Li Mingyang became a traitor. In fact, Li Mingyang became a Japanese citizen. In the past, there were indications that When Li Mingyang played the World Championships, he won the attention of many Japanese people with excellent results, so he was invited to Japan.
Maybe there are other reasons behind it. Maybe, as many people say, she betrayed the country. People are selfish. People who do unimaginable things for their own benefit. But as a human being, the first thing they need is patriotism. If a person can't even be patriotic, what else can she do?
How do you see athletes changing their nationality?
