Today, in 2022, Nie Weiping and Lan Liya have gone through 21 spring and autumn together. At the age of 70, Nie Weiping is still in good spirits and has repeatedly achieved great results in the chess world, while his 47-year-old wife Lan Liya is still as beautiful as when she first got married.
Although there is a 23-year age gap between them, this has not affected their unwavering love in the slightest. On the contrary, with their mutual understanding and support, they have weathered all the ups and downs in their lives, and finally achieved a touching love story that spans time.
However, this marriage, which crossed the age gap, was not recognized by too many people at the beginning. When the news of Nie Weiping and Lan Liya's marriage spread to the ears of hundreds of millions of people, public opinion immediately set off an uproar.
Many warm-hearted friends deeply regretted it, and advised Lan Liya: "With your beauty and excellent conditions, why do you choose to marry an old man who is over half a hundred years old?" Even among Nie Weiping's relatives and friends in his hometown, there are many people who are unhappy with Lan Liya's relatives, accusing them of being indifferent to their daughter's marriage.
However, in the face of her husband's inner guilt and strong social pressure, Lan Liya still chooses to stick to her choice. She affectionately and tenaciously stated: "I have no regrets today, and I will always stick to my original intention in the days to come!" It was with this courage and determination that Lan Liya finally came together with Nie Weiping.
It is worth mentioning that Nie Weiping had experienced two failed marriages before meeting Lan Liya. His first wife, Kong Xiangming, a famous female Go player, suffered a brutal breakdown in their marriage in 1991.
His second wife was the famous soprano Wang Jing, and the marriage also came to an end at the end of 2000. The failure of these marriages undoubtedly cast a haze on Nie Weiping, and he no longer seems to believe in marriage.
However, fate seems to have arranged otherwise, and Nie Weiping finally met Lan Liya, who was only 27 years old, and became her third husband.
This couple, who are very different in age, with their understanding and support for each other, proved that those doubts were wrong with their actions. They have weathered all the ups and downs of life hand in hand, and finally wrote a moving love story that spans time.
Now, Nie Weiping and Lan Liya have entered different stages of life, but the relationship between them is still the same, which undoubtedly gives people deep inspiration and encouragement.
Do everything to take care of Nie Weiping
On a spring day in 2013, 58-year-old Nie Weiping was suddenly diagnosed with rectal cancer, which was undoubtedly a thunderbolt from the blue. In the face of her husband's illness, 40-year-old Lan Liya did not hesitate to let go of everything she had and devoted herself wholeheartedly to taking care of Nie Weiping.
At first, Lan Liya chose to hide the true condition from Nie Weiping, telling him that it was just a stomach ulcer. She was afraid that telling the truth directly would put a lot of psychological pressure on her husband.
With the cooperation of the doctors, Lan Liya guided Nie Weiping step by step to undergo chemotherapy and surgery. This process was undoubtedly painful for Nie Weiping, as the side effects of chemotherapy caused him to lose his eyebrows and his body to become thinner and thinner.
And Lan Liya also cried silently alone at the end of the corridor, full of helplessness and sadness.
However, Nie Weiping still maintained a strong will, and he finally took the initiative to confess his illness to Lan Liya. Despite the deep sadness hidden in his eyes, he was determined to overcome his illness and prevent his wife and daughter from suffering again.
This courage and sense of responsibility touched Lan Liya's soft heart, and she was determined to fully support her husband and accompany him through this difficult struggle.
Since then, Lan Liya has devoted all her love and patience to take care of Nie Weiping. She takes good care of her husband every day, feeding him medicine regularly to ensure that his diet is light and nutritious.
Even in Nie Weiping's most vulnerable moments, Lan Liya never wavered in her determination. She is always by her husband's side and gives him the greatest support and encouragement, and her tenacity is admirable.
Just when Nie Weiping needed love the most, Lan Liya did not hesitate to let go of the career she originally loved, and devoted herself to her husband and children at home. She often wept alone, full of anxiety and helplessness, but she never showed the slightest sadness to her husband.
On the contrary, with her warm care and strong will, she became the strength that supported the whole family.
Finally, under Lan Liya's careful care, Nie Weiping's condition improved significantly. In the spring of 2015, the doctor excitedly told them that Mr. Nie's health had improved greatly, and that the terrible cancer cells had not found any tendency to spread.
Hearing the good news, Lan Liya burst into tears, and she felt that her efforts had finally not been in vain.
Lan Liya used her love and perseverance to successfully help Nie Weiping defeat the invasion of cancer. At the most critical moment, she did not retreat, but did not hesitate to stand up and resolve the anxiety of her family with selfless dedication.
This spirit of self-sacrifice undoubtedly demonstrates Lan Liya's responsibility and responsibility as a wife. She used her actions to interpret the true meaning of what is called "love", which strengthened the emotional bond between her and Nie Weiping.
Two failed marriages
Nie Weiping's married life was not all smooth sailing, and before he met Lan Liya, he had experienced two failed marriages.
The first is Nie Weiping's first wife, the famous women's Go player Kong Xiangming. In 1979, the two completed the marriage ceremony in Chengdu and had a son.
However, this seemingly happy marriage suffered a brutal breakdown in 1991. After the divorce, Kong Xiangming took his son to Japan, while Nie Weiping faced the huge blow of his life alone.
A few years later, Nie Weiping stepped into the palace of marriage again, this time with the famous soprano Wang Jing. The two tied the knot in 1991 and have a son, Nie Yunqing.
Sadly, the marriage came to an end at the end of 2000 and the parties broke up.
The original text does not elaborate on the reasons for these two failed marriages. But it can be seen that even a chess giant like Nie Weiping will inevitably encounter setbacks and stumbles in his love life.
The failure of these marriages undoubtedly cast a haze on Nie Weiping's heart. At the age of more than fifty, he no longer seems to believe in marriage, and he does not dare to enter this palace easily.
However, fate seems to have arranged otherwise, and Nie Weiping finally met Lan Liya, who was only 27 years old, and became her third husband.
Perhaps it is precisely because of the setbacks that Nie Weiping knows how to cherish the family in front of him even more. And with such a considerate partner as Lan Liya, Nie Weiping's life has also undergone earth-shaking changes, and the whole person has taken on a new look.
It can be seen that the emotional bond between the couple is so strong that people sincerely admire it.
Love story
Born in 1975 in a privileged family, Lanlia developed a strong interest in the sport of Go from an early age. In 2001, Nie Weiping came to Guiyang to participate in the competition, and happened to meet Lan Liya, who was on vacation.
At the moment of meeting for the first time, Nie Weiping was impressed by Lan Liya's unique charm. And this young lady also developed an irrepressible admiration for this chess giant.
Lan Liya's father graciously invited Nie Weiping to visit his home, which made Lan Liya realize her long-held wish - to be able to meet her idol Nie Weiping.
In two months, Nie Weiping traveled from Beijing to Shanghai four times, just to be able to see his sweetheart again. Eventually, they formalized their relationship in midsummer June. However, the romance was not approved by Lanlia's parents.
They feared that their daughter would find herself in an unforeseen predicament and dissuaded her from thinking about it.
But Lan Liya had already made up her mind in her heart, and she firmly told her parents: "I am no longer a child, I believe that I can find happiness in Mr. Nie."
Faced with their daughter's insistence, the Lan family's parents decided to have an in-depth exchange with Nie Weiping in person. Nie Weiping promised them that he would definitely give Lan Liya true happiness.
So, the day before Nie Weiping's fiftieth birthday, they completed the marriage formalities in Beijing in a low-key manner. After getting married, Lan Liya resolutely quit her job in Shanghai and returned to Beijing with Nie Weiping.
She gave up the career she loved, chose to devote herself to her husband and children, and took care of this warm family.
Under Lan Liya's meticulous care, Nie Weiping's whole person was refreshed, and he became energetic from the inside out. Lan Liya used her love to slowly change her husband's lifestyle and let him have a healthier life.
Nie Weiping, who was once accustomed to wearing socks mixed and matched in various colors, finally understood his mistake under the patient guidance of his wife, and no longer matched clothes at will.
And Nie Weiping, who is an alcoholic, was inspired by Lan Liya's words, and gradually quit this vice and regained a healthy lifestyle.
Although there is a 23-year age gap between Nie Weiping and Lan Liya, their mutual understanding and support has never weakened. Even when the outside world was questioning, Lan Liya still chose to stand firmly on her husband's side, and proved that the relationship between them was sincere and stable with her actions and persistence.
It may be difficult for people to understand the love journey of this "old and young" couple, but they have proved with practical actions that as long as both parties are determined to give to each other, it is possible to overcome any obstacle.
The love story of Lan Liya and Nie Weiping has undoubtedly brought a wave of positive energy to today's society.
The continued brilliance of the cause
Despite the failure of two marriages, Nie Weiping still achieved brilliant achievements in his career. He is highly respected in the chess world and has won several major tournaments.
On Valentine's Day in 2015, the second "Dream Lily Cup" World Go Open Championship was held in the Chinese Chess Academy. At this time, Nie Weiping had just undergone cancer surgery for only 9 months, but he still took the initiative to participate in this international competition.
Although his physical condition has not fully recovered, Nie Weiping still relied on his excellent chess skills to achieve outstanding results in this huge event.
In 2016, Nie Weiping shined again and won the crown of the "Taiping Shuzhen Cup" Go Veterans Invitational Tournament. This undoubtedly proves once again that he is still the top player in the Chinese Go world.
What's even more exciting is that in the "Nongshim Shin Ramen Cup" World Go Team Championship on January 16, 2021, Nie Weiping and his disciple Chang Hao defeated the Japanese team with an absolute advantage.
The victory of this game is undoubtedly an important moment in the development of China's Go career.
In the process of Nie Weiping's continuous achievements, Lan Liya has always been by her husband's side. She is not only responsible for handling all kinds of trivial matters in the family to ensure that Nie Weiping can devote himself to the chess game, but also patiently listens to her husband's chess experience and gives him the greatest support.
While Nie Weiping has achieved these brilliant achievements, he also has to face the test of family life. In 2013, he was diagnosed with rectal cancer, which undoubtedly hit the family hard.
But at this critical moment, Lanlia resolutely put everything down and devoted herself wholeheartedly to taking care of her husband. With her tenacity and patience, she successfully helped Nie Weiping overcome the invasion of the disease.
Today, Nie Weiping is 70 years old, and Lan Liya has also entered the prime of life at the age of 47. Although the age gap between them is still significant, their mutual understanding and support has never diminished.
With the help of his wife, Nie Weiping continued to achieve good results, which also brought great pride to the whole family.
Lan Liya has always supported and paid attention to Nie Weiping's achievements. She keeps an eye on her husband's condition and makes sure he can put his heart and soul into the game. It is precisely with such a virtuous and considerate wife that Nie Weiping can maintain high morale and achieve great results in the chess world.
It can be said that the brilliant achievements of Nie Weiping's career are inseparable from Lan Liya's selfless dedication and strong support. She not only gives her husband meticulous care in family life, but also always stands behind him in career development to create the best conditions for him.
This kind of selfless devotion of a wife to her husband undoubtedly reflects deep love and firm determination.
