Some time ago, a show ""Fist" went all the way to us" was very popular, and some well-known stars participated in it. In fact, boxing has always been loved by everyone because of its direct confrontation, but Chinese fighters have not achieved much in this regard.
Until he showed up.
Zou Shiming, a 48kg boxer for the Chinese men's boxing team. With a height of 1.6 meters, two Olympic gold medals and an international boxing championship belt, he became a veritable world boxing champion.
He is a well-known sports star in China, and then the last time he appeared in a hot search was this entry, "Zou Shiming Company was executed for 38,600 yuan". It's just that such a hot search didn't stay on the list for too long, and it was quickly replaced by new hot spots. Everyone can't help but sigh, what has the generation of boxing champions experienced?
Zou Shiming was born in 1981 in a small county town in Zunyi, Guizhou, he was often bullied by his classmates since he was a child, and was influenced by kung fu movies, his idol is Jackie Chan, and he hopes to beat the people who bully him like Jackie Chan in the movie. Super execution prompted him to really start training in martial arts, and at the age of 16, he was caught in by Liang Feng, the coach of the boxing team.
Zou Shiming can be said to be a boxing genius, and when he came into contact with boxing, his progress was very fast, which surprised these coaches. After many domestic competitions shined, he entered the national team and became an official member of the national team.
At the age of 22, Zou Shiming, who was at the peak of his technique, physical strength and mentality, stepped onto the stage of international competitions. At the 2003 World Boxing Championships, he won a silver medal. This is China's first medal in boxing in the world, and this medal is of great significance to the Chinese boxing field, but it is only the beginning for Zou Shiming.
In the following time, Zou Shiming's boxing career is like a hanging.
In 2004, he won the bronze medal in the Olympic Games, achieving a breakthrough in Chinese boxing in the Olympic Games.
At the 2008 Beijing Olympics, he won a gold medal on his doorstep.
At the 2012 London Olympics, he successfully defended his title.
Two gold and one bronze, he proved his strength with results.
At this time, Zou Shiming was 31 years old, which is an "advanced age" for a boxer, and his reaction ability and physical fitness will gradually weaken with age. In order to continue his athletic career, he chose to enter professional boxing.
Finally, at the age of 35, he defeated Pabom from Thailand to pocket the WBO belt. He finally got his wish and became China's second professional boxing champion. Zou Shiming burst into tears and kissed his wife Ran Yingying to thank her and the team for their continued support.
If Zou Shiming's career stops at this segment, it may be a perfect end.
After that, Zou Shiming chose to enter the entertainment industry, guest starred in Dapeng's "Dick Men", and also participated in the performance of the Hollywood blockbuster "Transformers 4". Take the child to participate in the popular variety show "Where Is Dad Going", so far out of the circle, let everyone see that he is a loving father in his private life.
Under the planning of his wife Ran Yingying, he is more like a "star", and what appears in front of the public are trivial matters between family and husband and wife. For a while, public opinion on the Internet was everywhere, but more negative comments on it.
Perhaps in order to save word of mouth, Zou Shiming's first title defense match will begin. The opponent chose Japan's mediocre choice Sho Kimura. His past achievements are very average, and people in the circle can see that they chose him as a stepping stone to regain Zou Shiming's reputation. Before this game, Zou Shiming's team exhausted methods of publicity, and even packaged it as a "Sino-Japanese war".
Then the ending was shocking, and in the second half of the match, Zou Shiming was physically exhausted, and was quickly counterattacked after being caught by his opponent. In this way, Kimura Sho exploded and won the game.
At the end of the competition, Zou Shiming was very emotional, grabbed the microphone and said a lot, talking about his own difficulties over the years, his own efforts, as the champion Kimura Sho did not have much opportunity to speak.
After the game, Zou Shiming issued a long article accusing the game of having an inside story and "not clean". Repeatedly mentioning the Japanese identity of the other party, trying to blame the failure on "someone making trouble." His wife Ran Yingying even posted that Zou Shiming's agency forced his match despite his discomfort to lose.
This series of operations did not arouse everyone's sympathy, but made the public's impression of Zou Shiming's family fall to the bottom.
After that, Zou Shiming went behind the scenes, became the president of the Shanghai Boxing Association, and also participated in variety shows, but all to promote boxing, perhaps he realized that people should still do what they do best.
Pulling the progress bar to the present, a generation of boxing champions has become a "lai" because of more than 30,000 yuan, which is really embarrassing.
In any case, his achievements and accolades are undeniable, not to mention that he is still using his influence to popularize boxing to the public.
People will always have controversy, and when it comes to Chinese boxing, his name has always been an inescapable existence.
