In the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games, Chinese gymnast Liu Xuan won the gold medal in the women's gymnastics balance beam event, which not only ended the history of Chinese women's gymnastics without a championship in this event, but also marked an important breakthrough in Chinese gymnastics in the international arena.
That year, Liu Xuan was 21 years old, and for gymnastics, a sport with extremely high requirements for age and physical conditions, she had reached the so-called "older" stage.

Liu Xuan's transformation is not only another bold attempt in his career, but also shows many athletes another possibility of retirement life.

Love runs long distance, happiness lands

At a dinner organized by He Jiong, she met clarinet player Wang Tao.
This chance encounter laid the cornerstone for the future life path of the two.
Wang Tao left a deep impression on Liu Xuan with his achievements in the field of music and his profound artistic temperament.
And Liu Xuan, with her brilliant achievements in the field of sports and unique personal charm, also attracted Wang Tao's attention.
The first meeting between the two at the dinner table started a twelve-year love run between them.
Over the past 12 years, the relationship between the two has gradually deepened, and their mutual understanding and support have also grown.
Wang Tao is not only Liu Xuan's partner in life, but also her solid backing.
Especially when Liu Xuan retired and moved to the film and television industry, facing challenges and uncertainties in new fields, Wang Tao always gave her firm support and encouragement.
They have spent many important life moments together, including the start of Liu Xuan's film and television career, the preparation of their wedding, and the planning of their future family life.
In 2013, Wang Tao prepared a romantic marriage proposal ceremony for Liu Xuan.
In a scenic location in Hong Kong, Wang Tao showed Liu Xuan the 180,000 diamond ring he had carefully prepared for this moment, and officially proposed to her.
This moment is not only the end of the long-distance love run between the two, but also a new starting point for their life together.
Their marriage proposal story, full of romance and sweetness, has become a beautiful moment in their love journey.
Wang Tao's family conditions are very good, his father Wang Maojun is well-known in the Sichuan football world, known as the former leader and vice president of Quanxing Football, and can be called the "godfather" of Sichuan football, with a rich net worth.
However, Wang Tao did not get contaminated with the habits of the children of rich families, but loved Liu Xuan very much, like a jewel.
Especially during Liu Xuan's pregnancy, Wang Tao's companionship and care reached an unprecedented level, like stars and moons, and he was well cared for.
He insisted on walking 10,000 steps with Liu Xuan every day to ensure that she and her unborn child could maintain good health.
In addition, in order to be by Liu Xuan's side at all times during childbirth, Wang Tao set up a "temporary office area" in the hospital ward and moved all the equipment he needed for his work to the hospital.
This practice not only reflects his deep love for Liu Xuan, but also shows his sense of responsibility as a future father.
After Liu Xuan became a mother, Wang Tao's support and care for the family did not decrease.
No matter how late Liu Xuan came home from work, Wang Tao would always leave a light in the living room and wait for her return.
This lamp not only illuminated Liu Xuan's way home, but also warmed her heart.
The lives of the two are full of long-term warmth and deep understanding and support for each other.
