Zhu Chen, born in 1976 in Wenzhou, Zhejiang, is the first world champion in China's chess program.
With her beautiful appearance and proud achievements, she has always been affectionately called "the most beautiful chess queen" by fans. However, such a chess queen married into the Qatari royal family in 2000.
After that, she changed her nationality and joined Qatar. But you know, in many Arab countries, royal children can take 4 wives! Growing up in a monogamous country, can she adapt to such a life?
She was supposed to be in the chess world, but she chose to marry and have children at her peak. So, how is her life now?

In 1988, at the age of 12, she won the World Championship; for many years afterwards, she achieved good results and was known as the "gifted girl" of chess.
With such an eye-catching appearance and such achievements and achievements, it is no wonder that Zhu Chen will be called "the most beautiful chess queen" by chess fans. However, in the face of such a chess game, the audience's evaluation is mixed.
The reason is that in 2000, Zhu Chen married a son of the Qatari royal family for love.
Qatar is an Arab country with a low standard of living and a wealthy country; muhammad, the object of the throne, is a relative of the royal family and a chess player.

Since Zhu Chen got married, the scandal of questioning her change of nationality has not been broken. Burdened with such doubts, Zhu Chen still achieved excellent results.
In December 2000, she and her team won the Olympic Team Women's Championship, and in January 2001, Zhu Chen ranked third in the world rankings.
In March 2002, the FIDE Grand Prix was held in Dubai, and Zhu Chen eliminated Bonomamuv in the first round. You know, this is the first time in history that a women's world champion has defeated the active men's world champion in an official competition.
With a happy career and a considerate husband, Zhu Chen should theoretically be an incomparably happy woman. But Zhu Chen said in the interview that he was once anxious to weigh only 40 kilograms. It turned out that everything behind this was exchanged by Zhu Chen for his separation from her husband.
Ever since they got married, Zhu Chen has been living with Muhammad in a life of gathering less and leaving more. Including the birth of the eldest daughter, Zhu Chen could not accompany him more. After all, she has to dedicate herself to her career when her energy is at its best.
But as she grew older, she also began to crave the company of her family. Zhu Chen's teammates once joked that Zhu Chen could buy a house in Beijing every day when he and her husband talked on the phone.
At that time, Zhu Chen did not think about transferring her husband's nationality to China. It can be said that Qatar has religious beliefs; second, the husband, as the eldest son in the family, carries too many responsibilities.
Moreover, Muhammad was willing to be the man behind the championship for so many years, and Zhu Chen really felt guilty. Therefore, in 2006, the comprehensive level was far less than before, and she chose to quit Chinese citizenship and join Qatar.
For this decision, Zhu Chen said that he had suffered bitterly. She doesn't want to give up her career because of marriage, and she can't ignore the feelings of her husband and daughter for the sake of her career.
After several entanglements, when her chess level began to decline, she finally submitted an application.
After that, some gossip poured in. Especially after Zhu Chen participated in "Lu Yu Has a Date", she was portrayed as a "housewife who has no self at all".
After the special editing of the program team, Zhu Chen after marriage had "no opinion, did not dare to wear a skirt, and had to agree to her husband marry another wife."
Even, he also regarded the jokes of Zhu Chen and his girlfriends as "ironclad evidence" that Zhu Chen personally begged her husband for a wife; a few years later, there were rumors that Zhu Chen had a very miserable life, and even her mother was hospitalized and "died" and did not come to take care of it.
Because in Qatar, a woman who marries is not eligible to return to her mother's home. In the face of such rumors and scandals, Zhu Chen himself expressed his helplessness. So she and her family had to come out and explain.
In fact, after marriage, Zhu Chen had a very good life. The husband's family has great respect for this world champion, even if Zhu Chen has given birth to two daughters in succession, the mother-in-law and father-in-law also expressed understanding.
In 2018, Zhu Chen, who was said to have "lost herself and degenerated into a housewife without opinion", was elected as the treasurer of the FIDE, that is, the "treasurer".
Together with her husband, she is still fighting for her career. Although it was a "battlefield", her mentality of wanting to fight hard for chess players has never changed.
Now she is 45 years old, although not as beautiful and spirited as when she was young, but she has a good attitude and allows herself to grow old gracefully. With a successful career and family together, what could be better than that?
In the 21 years after marriage, she and her husband supported each other and worked together for the cause they loved. Although the husband did not make any vows of mountain alliance, he had always guarded Zhu Chen alone, which had proved Muhammad's approval of monogamy.
As for how long my life will be and what changes will occur in the future, Zhu Chen said: It is best to live well in the present, after all, now my husband, he only loves me. Yes, for the future of love, how many people dare to say that they can walk for a lifetime?

Moreover, how could such a powerful and decisive woman live her life into a mess? Of course, her relationship with her family has always been very good.
Although my parents are not young, their energy has always been good. They spend every year with their granddaughters and daughters, and then they are taken around by Zhu Chen. The feelings of the family have not become estranged because of separation.
Dedicated to the career, to the family, such a woman no matter where she is, will probably live a very happy life, right?
