Zhang Yining is not a table tennis star who came out overnight, behind it is the blood and tears of Li Falcon, the "hero behind the scenes"! I think that at the beginning, Zhang Yining was still a little girl, and he was already shining on the table tennis table, and this is thanks to the careful guidance of Coach Li Falcon. Speaking of this coach, it's really not covered, he has the same fatherly love for Zhang Yining.
Let's warm up first and talk about Zhang Yining's gold medal shows. I don't know if you have noticed, in the 2004 Athens Olympics and the 2008 Beijing Olympics, Zhang Yining was simply a rhythm in the table tennis world, the gold medal harvester was general, singles, doubles, team competitions, which did not win gold?
Speaking of Li Falcon, we must first popularize his unusual family background. This coach is not only a former table tennis player himself, but his mother and sister are also table tennis masters, which can be called a table tennis family. You see, people from this kind of family are very handy in guiding Zhang Yining.
When Zhang Yining first entered the national team, Li Falcon had already seen her potential and said that this girl would have something to do in the future. Coach Li is not only a coaching technique, but also a little bit of life, and he is indispensable to worry about. For example, after training, Zhang Yining was hungry, Coach Li didn't say a word, took her to eat the most authentic Beijing fried noodles, and when she was tired, he took her home and made her a hot home-cooked meal. No, Zhang Yining has grown up in this kind of care all the way to the throne of the top master.
Moreover, in the process of Zhang Yining's growth, Li Falcon not only gave technical guidance, but also gave spiritual support. Especially when Zhang Yining encountered a trough, such as failing to be selected in the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games trials, it was Li Ying who continued to give encouragement and support by his side, which made Zhang Yining find himself again.
Not to mention Zhang Yining's little emotions in the game. Everyone knows that in the duel of masters, the psychological quality is not far from ten. If Zhang Yining encounters an unpleasant situation, he will ignore everything as soon as his temper comes up. At this time, Li Falcon had to get off the horse, and for a while he persuaded him softly, and for a while he taught him a strict father-like lesson, which can be described as both soft and hard.
The friendship between the master and apprentice is really not ordinarily deep. After retiring, Zhang Yining, although the focus of his life has shifted to his family and children, he has no less contact with Li Falcon. Every time I go back to Beijing, I must reunite with Li Falcon's family and treat this "table tennis father" as my own family.
Zhang Yining's success is, of course, inseparable from her own efforts, but if it were without the hard work of coach Li Ying and the care in her life, her achievements might also be discounted. It can be said that Li Falcon is not only Zhang Yining's coach, but also an important guide on her life path. This kind of master-apprentice relationship is really touching.
Therefore, whenever someone mentions Zhang Yining, behind those dazzling gold medals, we should not forget Li Falcon, the coach who paid silently. The teacher's kindness is like the sea, unfathomable, and Zhang Yining's gratitude to Li Falcon is the best proof. And for us ordinary people, how lucky it is to have such a master by our side on the road of life!
