Li Zongwei was born in October 1982 in Penang, Malaysia, with his ancestral home in Nan'an County, Quanzhou, Fujian Province.
Lee's father went south to Malaysia for his livelihood and has been rooted in Penang ever since. Li Zongwei is the old man in the family, small from a young age, and loves to play basketball.
The mother was distressed that her son was tanned, and later Li Zongwei followed his father to play in the badminton hall, and inadvertently discovered his talent in badminton, and since then he will play in the badminton hall close to home after school.
In his childhood, Li Zongwei was very lonely, because his brothers in the family were older and had already gone to school or work. He wanted to play badminton alone and could only play against the wall.
At the age of 11, he began to formally learn badminton, and it took 6 years for 17-year-old Li Zongwei to officially enter the Malaysian national team.

Li Zongwei and his wife Huang Miaozhu married in 2012, giving birth to their eldest son the following year and their youngest son in 2015.
Now the eldest son is 8 years old, attends elementary school, and is a very lively and mischievous child. When he first saw Lu Yu, he was still very shy, and after getting acquainted, he would use toy mice to tease Lu Yu.
The younger son is a very caring and introverted child, returning from kindergarten, he will share the salad made in the kindergarten with his father Li Zongwei for the first time.
Li Zongwei's 2 sons are handsome and have inherited the perfect genes of their parents.
After retiring from the military, Lee Chung Wai lives in Penang, Malaysia, and his family has gone public. Li Zongwei currently lives in a large 2-story villa, the villa is spacious and clean, and the first floor is Li Zongwei's study and his son's toy room.
The cabinet in Li Zongwei's study is filled with various trophies, which are the testimony of his 25 years of badminton career, ranking first in the world, winning 69 international championships, 46 super championships, and occupying the top spot in the world badminton men's singles ranking for 348 consecutive weeks.
Li Zongwei can always clearly say the meaning behind each medal.
Li Zongwei currently lives with his mother-in-law, and his father-in-law and mother-in-law will also come over on weekends to help with the children. Li Zongwei's brother also appeared on camera, looking exactly like his younger brother, like a twin.
Li Zongwei's family get along very well, and he also enjoys his current life and can have more time to spend with his children. As long as he was at home, he would drive with his wife every day to pick up his son and pick him up from school.
After retiring from the military, Lee served as the head and coach of the Malaysian delegation to the Tokyo Olympics.
Although Li Zongwei did not participate in the Olympic Games as an athlete, the burden on his body was heavier.
Lee Chung Wai is a symbol of Malaysia's dreams and he was also named Datuk. Mention Datuk, think of Hu Jing's husband Zhu Zhaoxiang, who was also named Datuk, and Hu Jing was also the first Chinese Nating.
In Malaysia, this is a symbol of the highest honor. It can be seen that Li Zongwei is like a national treasure.
Such an identity person, living in a large villa, what kind of car will he drive?
Li Zongwei is driving a car worth 500,000 yuan, not a big luxury car in everyone's mouth, which also shows that he is a very low-key and grounded person in private.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" ranks first > health</h1>
In 2019, due to nasopharyngeal cancer, the body could not withstand high-intensity training, and Li Zongwei announced his retirement. Li Zongwei's heart was full of reluctance and regret.
Li Zongwei has so far attributed the cause of illness to too much stress. The period of illness was the most feared time in Li Zongwei's life.
Li Zongwei's throat is scorched, and the most difficult thing is to swallow every time he eats. Even though he had taken painkillers, he still felt pain.
In order not to worry his family, he endured every time. During this dark time, he was grumpy and would be angry with his family.
His wife, Huang Miaozhu, is a very strong woman who behaves as usual in front of her husband, often crying on the phone behind her husband's back and her family.
In her own words, she endured a lot of hardship during that time. As a wife, mother, daughter-in-law, she must also endure, she as the pillar of the family, must bear all this.
Fortunately, everything has passed, and now the clouds are shining. When Li Zongwei was at home, he would also let his wife, who usually did housework, go out to relax and play, and he came to accompany his two sons.
Being able to share happiness and suffering is the highest level of love between husband and wife.
Huang Miaozhu is a good wife and mother, and she is currently taking care of two children at home, and even the lunches of the two children are made by her own hands.
Huang Miaozhu is gentle and generous, has patience with children, and is a good wife and mother at first glance.
Li Zongwei was able to marry Huang Miaozhu and really saved the galaxy in his previous life.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > biggest dream wins Lin Dan</h1>
Lin Dan can be said to be Li Zongwei's biggest "nightmare", and he is also the strongest opponent and the most feared opponent.
The two people first met when they were sixteen or seventeen years old, when Lin Dan and Li Zongwei were still very ignorant, at that time Li Zongwei was still combing the middle part of his hairstyle, and Lin Dan's face was also a childish expression.
After the first meeting on the pitch as a teenager, Li Zongwei made winning Lin Dan his biggest dream.
He has participated in 4 Olympic championships, won silver medals 3 times, and has always missed gold medals. This is also Li Zongwei's biggest regret.
Although he did not win super, Li Zongwei can also be regarded as an athlete who is very cruel to himself. In order not to want to lose to others, he likes to fight for the first in everything, and it is this kind of personality that makes his pressure multiply, and he always has to carry a psychologist around him to enlighten.
Now after retiring, Li Zongwei's biggest dream is that if he can postpone the time by 15 years, he will definitely win the championship. He lamented that during his time in service, Malaysia did not attach importance to badminton, and now it is very important.
He didn't have as good hardware as Lin Dan and good teammates to play one-on-one, he could only train one-on-two in simple venues. Li Zongwei really envied Lin Dan in his heart.
His biggest dream is to win Lin Dan and win the Olympic championship. Lee still remembers the excitement of beating Lin Dan in the final game of the 2006 Malaysian Open, when he defeated Lin Dan in the final 23:21, when he fell to his knees and burst into tears. He had waited a long time for this moment.
Unfortunately, in the Olympic Games, Li Zongwei always failed to win our super Dan.
Forever can only be subordinated to Lin Dan and become the second.
Now retired, Li Zongwei still can't let go of this regret, he is really too eager to win a gold medal for Malaysia. According to him, as long as he wins the game, the whole country will take a day off because of him.
As long as he wins the championship, their country will honk for him.
It is said that a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier, if there is no desire to win, why should he become an athlete?
However, the 38-year-old Li Zongwei finally understood: the most important thing to be a person is to be happy, and health is the first.
