Hey friends, today let's talk about a legend in the volleyball world - Hu Jin. The veteran coach who has served as the head coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team twice, his story can be described as magnificent and full of ups and downs.
Speaking of Hu Jin, many people's first reaction may be that his unsatisfactory results in the Olympics are unsatisfactory. Indeed, in the 1992 Barcelona Olympics and the 2000 Sydney Olympics, the Chinese women's volleyball team did not perform well under his leadership.
But don't forget, this coach is not simple, he led the women's volleyball team to win the third place in the 1989 World Cup, the runner-up in the 1990 World Championships, and the runner-up in the 1991 World Cup!
Hu Jin, born in 1955, is a native of Yuyao, Zhejiang, but his volleyball career began in Liaoning. When he was 11 years old, he began to practice Xi volleyball at the Anshan Amateur Sports School.
Later, he became the main setter of the Chinese men's volleyball team, participated in countless international competitions, and won glory for the country. After retiring, he moved to the coaching world, first as an assistant coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team, and then as the head coach.
The most impressive thing about Hu Jin's coaching career is his self-motivation and Xi spirit.
He spoke English very well, and when he led the team to play abroad, he could communicate directly with the referee in English, which was rare at the time.
But when it comes to Hu Jin, I have to mention his family life. His wife, Zhang Rongfang, is the deputy director of the Training Bureau of the National Sports Commission.
The two have been separated for a long time due to work, which has had a great impact on their love life. Especially when Hu Jin suffered setbacks in his coaching career, Zhang Rongfang always supported him despite his poor health.
Hu Jin's story is not only a coach's career, but also a story of perseverance and love.
Every attempt he made on the volleyball court, whether it was success or failure, deserves our respect. His life also teaches us that no matter how great the difficulties are, as long as there is love, there is strength to overcome them.
To sum up, Hu Jin, the volleyball coach, although he has regrets in the Olympics, his coaching career is by no means just about those losses.
His self-motivation, love of volleyball, and commitment to his family in life make him a role model worth Xi. His story is not only a good story in the history of volleyball, but also a legend about perseverance and love.
