Hui Ruoqi, the former captain of the women's volleyball national team, had attracted widespread attention when she announced the marriage news before.
Interestingly, netizens are not concerned about "Hui Ruoqi's marriage" itself, but on the "height difference" between Hui Ruoqi and her boyfriend.
Strictly speaking, Yang Zhenbo is not short in height, measuring 1.86 meters, and he can be regarded as "tall" on the street. But instead, he is targeting Hui Ruoqi, who is 1.92 meters tall.
1. The doctor met a female volleyball player and was coldly treated
At a party in 2014, Hui Ruoqi met Yang Zhenbo, a "pharmacology expert at the Beijing Academy of Military Medical Sciences", a senior student at Peking University with a doctorate in pharmacy, four years older than her.
Since the two were very talkative, they left each other's contact information after the party.
Yang Zhenbo has good conditions in all aspects, but she is 5 centimeters shorter than Hui Ruoqi, which does not meet her mate selection standards, so she didn't plan to deal with him at the beginning.
After saying goodbye, Yang Zhenbo often visits Hui Ruoqi at the venue and brings a variety of breakfasts. Despite the enthusiasm, it still could not melt the iceberg.
The turning point in their relationship occurred in February 2015, one day, Yang Zhenbo posted a dynamic in the circle of friends: a selfie of holding an adopted stray dog to the hospital for vaccination.
Not long after the dynamic was sent, in the evening of the same day, Hui Ruoqi, who had always been cold, actually took the initiative to send a message: "You also like small animals? ”
"I like it so much, animals and people should coexist peacefully." Yang Zhenbo was excited.
During the conversation, Hui Ruoqi was surprised to learn that Yang Zhenbo had adopted 20 stray dogs, and she could not have imagined that Yang Zhenbo, who looked so grinning, would have such kindness.
In my heart, I also changed my opinion of this boy: "If I hurt you before, I will say 'I'm sorry' now." ”
Yang Zhenbo replied: "So, you treat me as a friend?" In fact, I still have many lovely local areas that you don't know, and I will show you one by one. ”
As the relationship between the two gradually deepened, finally after a few months, they finally broke through the last barrier and came together.
Yang Zhenbo boldly confessed: "Goddess, are you willing to let me take care of you for the rest of my life?" ”
Hui Ruoqi replied, "Yes." ”
On weekdays, the two have very little free time, but whenever Hui Ruoqi has a game, Yang Zhenbo will always find time to go to the scene to help her lover.
In life, Yang Zhenbo takes good care of her, and will use the professional knowledge she has learned to help Hui Ruoqi condition her body.
Although Hui Ruoqi was still fluent and clean on the field at that time, few people knew that she was already "scarred".
Previously, in a match in 2012, Hui Ruoqi accidentally dislocated her arm, and in order to stabilize her morale, she forced her arm back at halftime and continued to compete.
Volleyball seems to be soft and elastic, but in professional sports, players will cause a huge impact every time they hit and catch the ball, no less than the "iron ball".
No one could imagine what kind of pain Hui Ruoqi endured.
When the whistle blew at the end of the game, she fainted on the spot due to excessive pain and was sent directly to the operating room.
After the operation, Hui Ruoqi permanently left 7 steel nails on her shoulder. In addition, due to the perennial overload of the body, she also suffered from ventricular tachycardia, and her heart had undergone two surgeries. Every time I finish every game, I always feel pain all over my body.
In order to relieve his lover's pain, Yang Zhenbo not only massaged him in private, but even studied cardiac medicine, and prepared scientific meals for him every day, which was intimate and envious of his teammates.
Before the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics, Yang Zhenbo once said that he could not attend in person due to work reasons.
But unexpectedly, on the day of the competition, her boyfriend still went to the scene in person against all odds, which gave her great encouragement.
Hui Ruoqi recalled: "With the encouragement of her boyfriend, I stabilized my mentality and finally won the championship."
Although compared with Hui Ruoqi who held a cup on stage, Yang Zhenbo seemed unknown, but in fact, she knew in her heart that without her boyfriend's care for many years, it would be difficult for her to have such great achievements.
2. At the wedding scene, Lang Ping tearfully sent his blessings
In February 2018, the then 27-year-old Hui Ruoqi officially announced her retirement due to injury, and the sports world was "shocked".
Due to the perennial campaign, she has already been covered with bruises and had to leave this stage early, which is regrettable.
For this battlefield that has struggled all her life, Hui Ruoqi is also very reluctant, and at the retirement ceremony, she choked up several times: "The time we cried and laughed together will always be my most precious memory." Whether in the provincial team or the national team, every coach is my mentor in life, especially Director Lang, she made me see a strong and dedicated female image. ”
It is a pity that Hui Ruoqi retired, but on the other hand, this is not the beginning of her new life.
On March 20, Hui Ruoqi made her first public relationship: "He is an excellent man with a height of 186. ”
On April 30, the wedding of the two was officially held in Beijing. The wedding scene can be called a grand scene in the sports world, in addition to Ma Yunwen, Yuan Xinyue and many other women's volleyball main forces present, CCTV host Zhang Bin and coach Lang Ping also personally arrived at the scene, and the wedding was also presided over by Zhang Bin.
At the wedding scene, Hui Ruoqi sang Zhou Huajian's "Friends" with her former teammates, and also performed Teresa Teng's "I Only Care About You" with the groom.
As a blessing to the old captain, Yuan Xinyue, Ding Xia, Xu Ruoya and Chen Zhan formed the "Supreme Bridesmaid Group". Among the four female volleyball players, Yuan Xinyue is 2 meters tall, Xu Ruoya is 1.92 meters, Ding Xia and Chen Zhan are both 1.80 meters tall, and the average height is 1.88 meters.
The four beauties personally went out to "escort" Hui Ruoqi, and the scene was very lively.
In the speech session of coach Lang Ping, looking at Hui Ruoqi, who had faded into youth, Lang Ping, who had always been serious and solemn, couldn't help but burst into tears, and said in a choked voice: "Xiaohui is our best women's volleyball captain, and now she will start a new identity, bless you!" We have one less captain, send your blessings, you will be happy! ”
To some extent, in Lang Ping's heart, Hui Ruoqi has long been regarded as his daughter, and Lang Ping is also the most important leader of Hui Ruoqi's volleyball career.
When Hui Ruoqi served as the captain of the women's volleyball national team, it coincided with Lang Ping's return to coach the national team. It was under the careful guidance of Lang Ping that she gradually adapted to the role of captain and led the team to the peak.
In Lang Ping and Hui Ruoqi, there are too many similarities, 28 years ago, Lang Ping also stood in Hui Ruoqi's position, serving as the captain and main attacker, and also left the team prematurely due to injury problems.
Generations of female rankings alternated between the old and the new, and Lang Ping's words were exported, and the members and leaders of the women's volleyball team on the scene had already cried.
3. Step into the entertainment industry and become a sports and art amphibious star
After bidding farewell to the arena, Hui Ruoqi also started a new life and entered the entertainment industry for development.
In fact, Hui Ruoqi is not short of money, in the women's volleyball team, she is famous as "Bai Fumei", her father Huifei is an executive of a listed company, and her mother Xu Xueyuan is a university teacher, with a good family income.
Even if you inherit the family business, you can easily live a worry-free life.
But for Hui Ruoqi, the climax of her life is always in the next stage.
Among female volleyball players, Hui Ruoqi has won several titles of "Most Popular Athlete" with her excellent performance and outstanding appearance, which has been widely exposed, which also laid the foundation for her subsequent entry into the entertainment industry.
In the first year of retirement, she was invited by director Chen Kexin to star in the movie "Win the Championship". "Winning the Championship" tells the story of Director Lang from captain to coach in the eighties of the last century.
In the film, Hui Ruoqi played herself, although it was the first time to "electrocute", but when playing with Gong Li, Huang Bo and other old drama bones, Hui Ruoqi did not have the slightest nervousness and presented a near-perfect performance.
After the film was released, Hui Ruoqi's performance was highly praised by the audience, and many people once thought that the "Hui Ruoqi" in the film was a professional actor, and it can be said that the debut was a great success.
In the following days, Hui Ruoqi began a new career, widely attended various programs, she not only appeared on CCTV programs, but later participated in the filming of phenomenal variety shows, gaining a group of fans.
In addition to making movies and appearing on variety shows, Hui Ruoqi is also a versatile girl, and in 2021, she also sang the song "Teenager" with Huang Jingyu and Mengran, which was on the hot search on social platforms.
From athlete to entertainment star, Hui Ruoqi has completed an incredible transformation.
The time is 2022, and now Hui Ruoqi has retired for 4 years.
During this time, Hui Ruoqi had a happy family, a good job, and gave birth to a lovely daughter "Little Rice Cake" with her husband.
Perhaps influenced by the genes of parents, "Little Rice Cake" is particularly tall among peers and can be taller than other children of the same age.
On September 29, 2022, she posted a recent photo of her daughter and said: "My girl is already half a head taller than children of the same age, but I am not involved in the head circumference."
Because of this, some people also speculate that in the future, she may continue her mother's career and become the main force of women's volleyball again.
Ruoqi's family is also a "volleyball family", and her parents played on the volleyball varsity team in college and became acquainted as a result.
In the national college student volleyball invitational tournament in seven provinces and cities, Hui Ruoqi's father Huifei's Jilin University of Technology team and mother Xu Xueyuan's Liaoning Normal University team won the men's and women's championships respectively.
After the game, the two also met and fell in love.
Hui Ruoqi joined the national team with the number 12 jersey, and coincidentally, the number 12 was also the number of the ball when her parents were on the college team.
A family of three sharing a ball number is not a kind of fate.
As for whether the "small rice cake" will inherit the family's "mantle", Hui Ruoqi was noncommittal, only saying that she would respect her daughter's own choice.
Now Hui Ruoqi has also opened her own social platform to share some short video content, accumulating more than 1.1 million fans.
At the age of 31, she still retains the vitality of the former "volleyball goddess", still loves sports, lively and cheerful.
Although she has bid farewell to the arena, she still pays attention to women's volleyball, and in her spare time, she will reappear as a commentator and special reporter to analyze the game for the audience from the perspective of a professional athlete.
Due to her outstanding contributions to volleyball over the years, Hui Ruoqi was also elected as the vice chairman of the 12th Committee of Jiangsu Youth Federation.
On October 10 of the same year, she released a small video again to congratulate the Chinese women's volleyball team on the successful promotion of the World Championship and cheer them on.
In addition, Hui Ruoqi is also fascinated by philanthropy, and established the "Hui Ruoqi Volleyball Foundation" many years ago to help those vulnerable in need through her influence.
It will also support some retired athletes by providing them with start-up loans or tuition fees so that they can integrate into society as soon as possible.
From this point of view, Hui Ruoqi is a captain with a considerable sense of responsibility.
Although Hui Ruoqi is still recuperating, it does not mean that she will not return to volleyball in the future.
Hui Ruoqi is the best player of the Chinese women's volleyball team in the past two decades, and the best captain, after Lang Ping steps down as coach, she may return to the field as a coach.
Today, as the chairman of the volleyball committee of the China Enterprises Sports Association, she has been committed to promoting the popularization of volleyball, and under the initiative of Hui Ruoqi, the final of the 2022 China Employee Volleyball Championship will be held in Xiamen, Fujian Province on December 16-18.
In her body, we can see the vigorous "women's volleyball spirit": fearless and brave to climb the peak.
It is this spirit that constantly pushes Hui Ruoqi to new heights on her life path.
