preface
One person was called "a sinner in China's sports industry" by netizens.
Even some netizens believe that if there is no existence of him,
In each Olympic Games, the Chinese team can also win a few more gold medals.
History tells us that often the most evil people are people in high positions, and so are he.
Once Wei Jizhong, known as one of the most important figures in Chinese sports,
It was even once given the title of "the first person in China's sports industry".
However, it was such a person who did what forced Chen Zhonghe away and excluded Lang Ping.
Even Liu Guoliang was suppressed by him.
However, it must be known that he can indeed be called "the first person in China's sports industry", but he was not wronged when he was scolded.
What kind of person is this?
I think he was indeed a great hero
The first thing to affirm is that when Wei Jizhong was young,
Indeed, it has made outstanding contributions to the mainland's sports cause.
It is not an exaggeration to call him the "father of the Olympic industry."
At that time, Wei Jizhong was also very loved by sports enthusiasts, and could even be said to be admired by thousands of people.
When he was a child, Wei Jizhong liked volleyball very much, and his personal ability was also outstanding, with his personal ability, he was selected into the Jiangsu provincial team early.
But the performance of the provincial team has always been very average, unable to break through his personal bottleneck, after a series of big and small events,
Wei Jizhong, who considered himself not to be an athlete, decided to quit the provincial team and instead enter the sports industry to participate in behind-the-scenes work.
And to everyone's surprise, although Wei Jizhong's performance in the arena was mediocre,
But after retreating into the background, the behind-the-scenes work gave him a lot of room for development.
At his peak, Wei Jizhong achieved the position of vice president of the Chinese Volleyball Association, and later rose to the secretary general of the Chinese Olympic Committee.
Prior to the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, he was a senior staff officer of the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee.
The titles on his body can be said to be innumerable, in addition to these, he has also served as the director of the international department of the General Administration of Sports of the country.
Even in taekwondo, he served as a member of the Executive Committee of the World Taekwondo Federation.
In addition to these, he served as Chairman of the Olympic Ethics Committee.
Even in the FIVB, he served as vice president for one term.
Needless to say, what contribution he has made to the cause of sports, judging by his title alone,
We are enough to understand what the status of this person is in the Chinese sports world.
And it is precisely because of his various contributions to China's sports and China's Olympic cause,
Wei Jizhong is known as the father of China's sports industry and the father of China's Olympic industry.
And that's exactly what happened. When it comes to our sports in China, it is inevitable that it cannot be bypassed,
It was the successful bid for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. Among them, Wei Jizhong's contribution is very prominent.
And this is only what can be known to us publicly, and he has contributed to some areas that are difficult for us laymen to know.
However, who could have imagined that such a person, but in his old age,
Put all your thoughts on some side things,
He even became a sinner in the development of China's sports industry.
And what he did can indeed be called "the most evil."
How could anyone dare to move?
Presumably, anyone who knows a little about sports must have heard the name of "Iron Hammer" Lang Ping.
However, it is such a soul figure of the women's volleyball team who runs through all the highlight moments of the Chinese women's volleyball team,
but was openly accused by Wei Jizhong on the eve of the Rio Olympics,
And said that it was difficult for Lang Ping to achieve results in the competition.
Of course, everyone knows that under the leadership of Lang Ping, the Chinese women's volleyball team not only won the championship of the women's volleyball team,
And he will also sit firmly on the throne of the three-time Olympic champion.
This can also be regarded as Lang Ping using his own strength to deny Wei Jizhong's comments and throw the results on his face.
To know that the reason why the Chinese women's volleyball team can achieve such great results, Lang Ping is indispensable,
If he hadn't been able to make a difference, it would be difficult for the Chinese women's volleyball team at that time to regenerate from the trough.
It can be said that when Lang Ping returned from the United States, sports fans across the country saw the hope of the women's volleyball team.
However, what everyone does not know is that in fact, many years ago, the Chinese Volleyball Association invited Lang Ping out of the mountain with sincerity.
In the women's volleyball team, she personally served as a coach. At that time, Lang Ping had not been retired for a long time,
But Lang Ping really became the commander after 2013, why is this?
The initiator of this is Wei Jizhong, if he were not obstructed from it, I am afraid that the Chinese women's volleyball team would have been revitalized a few years earlier.
Lang Ping can be said to be outstanding as an athlete,
After taking over the coaching position of the Chinese women's volleyball team, Lang Ping continued his usual style,
Not only has the intensity and scientificity of training been adjusted, but the atmosphere in the team has also been rectified.
It can be said that the women's volleyball team can come out step by step from the trough, and Lang Ping has made a great contribution.
However, it is such a coach who led the Chinese women's volleyball team to win awards and get soft,
But again and again, he was ostracized and treated coldly by Wei Jizhong.
Even when Lang Ping led the Chinese women's volleyball team to kill all sides in the world tournament,
Wei Jizhong still wants to take advantage of Lang Ping's contract to "fan the wind and ignite the ghost fire" to the volleyball association,
Claiming that Lang Ping was old at this time, he should be given more rest time for old comrades,
Now she doesn't have the energy to spend too much thought on managing the team.
But Lang Ping's achievements are obvious to the whole world,
What's more, under the leadership of Lang Ping, the Chinese women's volleyball team has also repeatedly reached new highs,
Therefore, the association did not follow Wei Jizhong's advice and give up Lang Ping, but continued to sign a contract with Lang Ping.
Of course, when rejecting Wei Jizhong's proposal, the association also bluntly said that Lang Ping is the future of the Chinese women's volleyball team.
Later, this matter was disclosed online by people familiar with the matter,
So much so that during that time, Wei Jizhong was frequently reprimanded by the majority of netizens.
Perhaps because the volleyball association is very decisive, or the pressure from netizens on Wei Jizhong is too great,
Since then, Wei Jizhong has avoided Lang Ping and has never denigrated Lang Ping again.
In fact, this is only one of his many deeds, and Lang Ping is not the only volleyball coach that Wei Jizhong forced away.
The first hero destroyed by him
Let's turn back the clock to 2001.
At this time, the Chinese women's volleyball team ushered in a coach who was on the verge of being ordered - Chen Zhonghe.
At this time, the Chinese women's volleyball team is in the darkest moment, the whole team is in a mess, let alone the world champion, even if it is a small tournament ranking, there is no hope.
And Chen Zhonghe apparently did not give up,
After he took over, the Chinese women's volleyball team not only analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of the Chinese women's volleyball team at that time, but also improved the overall training method for the current situation of the women's volleyball team.
Chen Zhonghe's training method is indeed quite effective,
In the period of time after he took over, the Chinese women's volleyball team can be said to have improved by leaps and bounds.
It was during his coaching period that the Chinese women's volleyball team won the team competition at the 2004 Athens Olympic Games.
However, at this important juncture of universal celebration,
Wei Jizhong, who is in a high position, did not think about how to make the Chinese women's volleyball team go further.
In his eyes, driving away Chen Zhonghe was more important than anything else.
Even in order to drive away Chen Zhonghe, he openly said in front of the media,
As long as Chen Zhonghe is there, China's sports will not be better.
It was such a simple sentence that buried all of Chen Zhonghe's achievements.
Can a casual sentence have such an effect? The answer is obviously yes, because the position of Wei Jizhong at that time was quite high,
And his reputation at that time did not smell to the end, and he still had some prestige.
Chen Zhong, on the other hand, had very different ideas from him.
Presumably, Chen Zhonghe at that time must have known that he was deeply involved in "trumped-up" charges,
But he obviously did not go to his heart, and still led the women's volleyball players to train as usual.
After all, in Chen Zhonghe's opinion, there is nothing more worthy of his attention than concentrating on training.
Fortunately, under the leadership of Chen Zhonghe at that time, the women's volleyball team got some results,
This also allowed Chen Zhonghe to temporarily dodge the "dark arrow" in Wei Jizhong.
But Wei Jizhong did not give up the idea of squeezing out Chen Zhonghe.
As the saying goes, "If you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid of thieves",
With Wei Jizhong's continuous efforts, he finally found Chen Zhonghe's handle.
That year was 2008, a very memorable year for all Chinese, because the year the Beijing Olympics were held.
In the Olympic Games, Chen Zhonghe still led the Chinese women's volleyball team as a coach to play for the country.
However, although the whole country was very optimistic about the Chinese women's volleyball team at that time, in the Olympic Games, the Chinese women's volleyball team only won the bronze medal.
Although the results are worthy of recognition, there is still some distance compared with the public's expectations for the Chinese women's volleyball team.
And this is definitely an incomparably good opportunity in Wei Jizhong's opinion.
During that time, Wei Jizhong frequently incited public opinion in front of the media and in front of decision-making.
The "guilt" of the women's volleyball team's failure to win the championship was all led to Chen Zhonghe.
Sure enough, under a series of operations by Wei Jizhong, Chen Zhonghe stepped down as the head coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team.
Show one’s true colors in the end
As with many romance novels set in history,
After the "manager" leaves, there is usually a person who is promoted by the initiator of the whole incident.
After Chen Zhonghe resigned as the head coach of the women's volleyball team, the Chinese women's volleyball team welcomed a new coach, Cai Bin.
It is not difficult to find that this Cai Bin and Wei Jizhong are fellow villagers.
Therefore, there are still many people who think that the reason why Wei Jizhong will attack Chen Zhonghe,
Its purpose is to cultivate a person in the Chinese women's volleyball team that is promoted by himself.
And can be a crony of his horse.
It's a pity that neither the decision-making level nor the majority of fans and friends realized this at that time,
The reason behind it is very simple, because the "human design" of Wei Jizhong at that time was very successful.
So what is the strength of this Cai Bin?
The most intuitive reference data to evaluate a coach's ability,
It's what kind of rankings the athletes he brought out during his coaching period.
During the coaching period of Taiping, the Chinese women's volleyball team, which had just improved, fell into a desperate situation again,
Not only did the strength get worse and worse, but during that time, they also frequently broke through the lowest results in history.
However, even so, Cai Bin still did not make women's volleyball training his focus.
The results will not be deceptive, even at that time, netizens were deeply worried about the Chinese women's volleyball team.
You must know that the Chinese women's volleyball team was once the strongest team in the world, even after the glory, it was once bleak,
But under the leadership of Chen Zhonghe, he returned to the peak.
Now it has fallen into decline again, and the majority of fans have also spontaneously shouted,
I hope that Chen Zhonghe can return to the Chinese women's volleyball team to continue coaching.
However, in the face of the tide of public opinion, Wei Jizhong not only did not replace Cai Bin,
Instead, he also stood up to support Cai Bin and called on everyone to give Cai Bin more time.
Until this moment, the majority of fans and friends did not understand what Wei Jizhong wanted to do, but it was too late.
In order to save the women's volleyball team, the majority of fans and friends did not hesitate to use multiple platforms to denounce Cai Bin,
So that the upper echelons can heed the cries of the fans and give the position of head coach to capable people.
And with the efforts of all parties, Cai Bin was finally replaced, and the person who was replaced,
It can be said that he came to office with the expectations of fans across the country.
Lang Ping came.
Death does not change
At this time, Lang Ping is not just a former Chinese women's volleyball player full of honors,
He is also a volleyball coach with extensive teaching experience.
After retiring, Lang Ping now "eats a wave of experience" in the United States, and then returned to Guangdong to serve as the coach of the Evergrande women's volleyball team.
In the face of the invitation sent by the national team, Lang Ping did not want to change and took over the heavy responsibility of the head coach.
Although Wei Jizhong still blocked it many times during this period, the "rumor" also looked very pale in the face of strength.
And Lang Ping also lived up to expectations, and under his leadership, the Chinese women's volleyball team returned to the peak.
It's just that during this period, Wei Jizhong was still not idle, not only frequently stabbed in the back,
And has also blocked the development of the women's volleyball team many times, obviously this time the top management chose to believe in strength.
In the solace of not being able to shake Lang Ping's status, he did not stop there, but set his goal on Liu Guoliang.
This is also a strong player who retired after winning full of honors and then became the head coach of the national team.
His resume as an athlete alone is enough to shake the entire table tennis world.
It can be said that if all athletes in China are denied, Liu Guoliang will definitely not be denied,
After all, the strength and achievements are obvious to all.
But Wei Jizhong obviously did not think that Liu Guoliang was a good coach,
So he repeated his old trick and wanted to pull Liu Guoliang off the horse.
Fortunately, this time Wei Jizhong still did not succeed.
The results of the Chinese table tennis team are Liu Guoliang's best resume as a coach,
This is not only due to the veteran's experience in hundreds of battles, but also the result of Liu Guoliang's seriousness and responsibility.
Although under the leadership of Liu Guoliang, the Chinese table tennis team will be the first in the world and become more and more stable, but Wei Jizhong has never given up the idea of pulling Liu Guoliang off the horse.
Suffering from the flaws in the Chinese table tennis team, Wei Jizhong simply ran to the association, claiming that the coach had too much power in the team, hoping that the association could come forward to replace Liu Guoliang.
It may also be a lie, and if you hear too much falsehood, it will become true.
Under Wei Jizhong's persistent application, the association finally replaced Liu Guoliang.
What about the Chinese table tennis team without Liu Guoliang?
I believe that friends who pay attention to sports must remember that the results of the Chinese table tennis team during that period were always unsatisfactory.
In a more common phrase, it is "not showing the level it should be".
So the drama of fans asking for orders was staged again, and finally with the repeated efforts of the majority of fans and friends, Liu Guoliang finally waited for the re-employment.
After that, everyone must also know that the Chinese table tennis team is still the Chinese table tennis team, forever the first in the world.
And it was also after Liu Guoliang returned to teaching and practicing that public opinion began to criticize Wei Jizhong.
Since then, the title of "Chinese Sports Stumbling Block" in Wei Jizhong's title has officially taken hold.
epilogue
Often evaluating a person is a very complex matter, neither can it be completely denied, nor can it be brainlessly praised.
But Wei Jizhong is clearly less than his evil deeds to Chinese sports.
In his early years, Wei Jizhong did contribute to the development of China's sports industry, which is undeniable and should be remembered by history.
However, the various evil deeds he has done to the Chinese women's volleyball team and the Chinese table tennis team will inevitably become a stain that this person cannot shake off for a lifetime.
I believe that most people pay attention to sports because sports are not only physical confrontations, but also games under fair rules.
But Wei Jizhong's stabbing in the back is really difficult to relate to the word "fair".
