Most athletes dedicate most of their lives to the arena, and when the five-star red flag is raised, life ushers in a high-light moment of great attention.
But few people seem to pay attention to where the retired athletes after the highlight moment went, what kind of life they lived, whether they were dressed or living on the streets.
Some people may think: those who have won glory for the motherland, even if they do not wear fine clothes and food after retirement, they will not live on the streets, right? You don't say that there is really that person who lives on the street to ask for food, this person is Zhang Shangwu, who is known as the most disgraced champion, from the attention of all to being arrested and imprisoned to living on the street, he has only used less than ten years, but savoring his experience does not deserve a word of sympathy.
In 1995
Zhang Shangwu, who was extremely talented, was selected to join the national gymnastics team
He was 12 years old
In just 6 years of training, Zhang Shangwu has completed the transformation from a small athlete to a big champion. In 2001, Zhang Shangwu participated in the World University Games and won two gold medals on it, one gold medal in single gymnastics, and the other team gymnastics champion with famous players Yang Wei, Xing Aowei and others.
Because his movements were almost perfect at that time, and his age was in the golden age of athletes, everyone thought that the youngster would be another rising star in the Chinese gymnastics world, but shortly after winning the championship, an accident came.
In early 2002, Zhang Shangwu, who was in the midst of a period of spring breeze triumph, encountered the same injury as Liu Xiang, who suddenly broke his left Achilles tendon during training.
The sudden change not only made Zhang Shangwu excluded from the List of the Athens Games, but also equivalent to blowing the end of his national athlete career in advance, Zhang Shangwu could only return to the provincial team with reluctance, originally thinking that he could make a comeback and return to the national team again, but his Achilles tendon recovered poorly, making zhang Shangwu's performance difficult to return to the previous height.
Another important unfavorable factor is that Zhang Shangwu is too young and crazy, because he offended the provincial coach, he returned to the provincial coach again, he was made difficult, obviously good at hanging rings, but the coach had to arrange for him to practice the all-rounder. So everything starts from scratch, his Achilles tendon can not withstand the practice of all-round, he naturally unwilling, tried, fought, but in the end has failed, so in 2005 Zhang Shangwu officially announced his retirement.
When Zhang Shangwu announced his retirement
He received 30,000 yuan in retirement fees
But when he returned to his hometown, he did not look for a job, but ate and drank all day and soon spent all his money. People have no far-reaching worries, and how to live the next few days has become a problem for Zhang Shangwu.
Originally thought that he could go back to Beijing with the identity of the gymnastics champion to break through again, the result was that he did not find the job he thought was suitable for many days, and when he was hungry, Zhang Shangwu could only sell his most cherished gold medal, 100 yuan sold the gold medal, and also sold his pride, so Zhang Shangwu embarked on another road.
In Beijing, the days of not having enough to eat and wear and no warmth let Zhang Shangwu take the side of the front - stealing, the result was that the technology was not at home "tragically" captured on the spot, and also got a free prison multi-day tour package, seriously suspecting that Zhang Shangwu was extremely hungry, after giving himself the way to go.
Food and clothing were indeed solved, but after being released, Zhang Shangwu's work was even more difficult to find, and he was forced to sell art on the street in exchange for some pocket money to eat, and at this time, Yang Wei and Xing Aowei in the same period were already famous in the world, and this contrast was undoubtedly tragic.
At that time, after the Zhang Shangwu incident was reported, it caused a lot of social sensations, and after Chen Guangbiao noticed it, he threw an olive branch to Zhang Shangwu and hired him to work in the company with a monthly salary of 10,000.
Chen Guangbiao's original intention was not to expect him to be able to do anything big, Gao Xin hired back is to let him do what he can, but it was not long before Zhang Shangwu took the initiative to quit his job, because he always had trouble with his colleagues, felt that this was not suitable for himself, so the ten thousand yuan monthly salary of the job was not wanted, turned around and joined the ranks of street art.
The public forgave him for the first time after the taint of the past glory mutation and imprisoned him, and gave him a chance, but in the words of the hadron: not useful, can not grasp.
Many netizens discussed that even if he is not an athlete in this situation, it is more than enough to take a physical education teacher, especially when applying for a high school physical education teacher, he is always "sick" and cannot go to class and does not delay in getting a salary, how much is an enviable thing? But Zhang Shangwu did not go. At that time, he was also arranged to go to school, but he was reluctant to go. This can't work, that can't work, they have given up on themselves, no matter how much others support it is useless, and finally can only let Zhang Shangwu sell art on the street.
However, in the past, the glory made Zhang Shangwu unable to put down his body and really rely on showmanship to sell money, every time he appeared in the subway, he just put a piece of paper full of his past glory in front of himself, and then simply stood upside down, relying on the sympathy of the people in the past to make money, which sounds good to be a bit of selling art, but it is equivalent to begging, and even begging with a bad attitude.
Many aunts in the subway complained that he didn't look like a champion at all, and the handstands were sloppy, and then they chattered about their encounters with people in the past. According to netizens, when he was 17 or 18 years old, he could still see Zhang Shangwu's figure in the subway, which was unbearable and regrettable. Later, it is said that because of the theft of the second into the palace, a generation of sports champions is completely finished.
For Zhang Shangwu's encounter, it is reasonable to say that sympathy should indeed be repaid, but a more intriguing thing happened during Chen Guang's label appointment, which made the public doubt Zhang Shangwu's encounter for the first time.
Just after Chen Guangbiao signed Zhang Shangwu in a high-profile manner, many media reporters flocked to conduct interviews, Zhang Shangwu "ruthlessly" disclosed some "black materials" in the "system", and also told about the many injustices he suffered, which caused Chen Yibing, the captain of the Chinese men's gymnastics team at the time, to shell Zhang Shangwu on Weibo, saying that his suffering was indeed worthy of sympathy, but he should not reverse black and white in front of the camera to deceive everyone's sympathy, and the coach treated him like a parent, but was said to be a black heart liver.
After winning the gold medal in the collegiate sports competition, he swelled to the point of the coach's nose and lashed out, calling himself a future Olympic champion, but he did not say a word. In addition, Chen Yibing asked several other questions, the most noticeable of which was: "Why did you leave the national team, don't you know it yourself?" This statement instantly attracted the attention of many people, and it was not because of a foot injury that he left the national team together?
Later, Zhang Shangwu's former provincial teammates said that Zhang Shangwu's departure was not because of Achilles' heel, but because his hands and feet were not clean, and he was expelled after repeated warnings were ineffective.
In order to maintain his face, he declared that he had retired due to illness, but after all, he was a person who had won glory for the country, and the retirement payment and work were all arranged by the national team, which he was not willing to accept.
So netizens reacted to this, and the theft and imprisonment of the year was not Zhang Shangwu's desperation, but people returned to their old business. At this time, the sympathy for Zhang Shangwu was scattered by a large part, and the other half was because of the fraudulent donation incident.
Perhaps street art has exercised Zhang Shangwu's IQ
He even learned to make a donation
In 2012, he incarnated as a "great benevolent person" on Weibo, came out to ask for help online for ni Lique, a female athlete who was paralyzed by illness, and left a photo of his bank card.
For a while, many people reached out to help, but they did not expect that all this was a scam, and then Ni Lique urgently refuted the rumors on Weibo, saying that all this Zhang Shangwu directed and acted by himself, he did not know him, just a few words of private message chat, and the bank card in the picture was also Zhang Shangwu's own.
Then Zhang Shangwu sent a microblog, full of screens asking everyone to forgive him, but there was no intention of apologizing for the lie, this time the public's sympathy for him was finally completely squandered, and he could only completely join the Beijing beggar gang and perform handstands in the streets
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="33" > xiaobian has something to say</h1>
It's early to name themselves
But in terms of Zhang Shangwu's experience, if he hadn't become famous so early, perhaps his psychological development would have been more sound.
It is not that he has been immersed in the dream of the champion and cannot wake up, obviously he has fallen, and he is still pretentious, shouting all day long that if it is not the problem of Achilles tendon, his current status and fame are no less than Yang Wei and Xing Aowei.
However, there are many athletes who have become famous as teenagers, and it seems that it is rare to hear of anyone like him, not only Liu Adou, who cannot be supported, but also manipulates public opinion to smear the provincial coach and so on.
Looking at Zhang Shangwu's downfall experience, Chen Yibing's only words, and fraudulent donation incidents, Zhang Shangwu's retirement is not necessarily a good thing, narrow-minded, poor character, and arrogant, does he have the shangwu spirit of that athlete?
Qualified to be a Chinese façade standing on the podium? The answer is no.
Can be sympathetic
Can be pathetic
But there must be something hateful about the poor
The public's eyes are not Buddha's light, can not do universal sentient beings, can only look forward to a certain day Zhang Shangwu himself to wake up, and then find a suitable for their own legitimate work to do.
