In the wave of time in 2016, Fan Zhiyi, a football legend whose glory has faded, has welcomed a new chapter in his life journey with a new attitude.
On this day of joy, he had no heart to show off, completed the preparations for the wedding in a low-key manner, and took a young and beautiful woman, Zhang Mengjin, who was 17 years younger than himself, into his arms.
As soon as this news was announced, it immediately aroused enthusiastic responses and extensive discussions in all walks of life. Looking back on Fan Zhiyi's life journey, his emotional path can be described as magnificent and full of dramatic turns.
In his first marriage, he tied the knot with Li Qian, who came from the flight attendant industry, and together they conceived the crystallization of love, however, due to the huge difference in lifestyle, the two eventually chose to part ways.
This divorce lawsuit even went to court for a time, attracting the attention of the general public. After the divorce, Fan Zhiyi got together with the well-known actress Li Lanyi and started his second marriage journey, however, this relationship also failed to last long and ended in failure.
However, compared with the setbacks of the past, this time Fan Zhiyi finally found a home in the ocean of feelings and built a love nest with Zhang Mengjin. Although there are many doubts about their age gap from the outside world, Fan Zhiyi and Zhang Mengjin have always been consistent, supported each other, and jointly wrote a touching marriage epic.
In the five years after marriage, Fan Zhiyi and Zhang Mengjin's relationship has become deeper and deeper. They often walk hand in hand in the embrace of nature, enjoy the charming scenery, and together give birth to a lively and lovely daughter.
Even if Fan Zhiyi occasionally fell into the whirlpool of controversy, Zhang Mengjin, as his wife, always stood up without hesitation and firmly defended his reputation.
This kind of silent support highlights the deep emotional bond between the couple.
Today's Fan Zhiyi is undoubtedly a winner in life with a harmonious family and a successful career. He not only left countless brilliant achievements on the green field, but now his life is also happy and enviable.
It was after going through a bumpy emotional road that Fan Zhiyi finally ushered in his own "Prince Charming"-style love story and became an ideal model in the hearts of many netizens.
Looking back on Fan Zhiyi's football career, we can see his outstanding achievements in the field of sports. As a shining star of Asian football in the 20th century, Fan Zhiyi has won many major championships at home and abroad with his extraordinary football talent and perseverance.
Back in 1987, Fan Zhiyi, a superstar who later shined in the long history of Chinese football, finally ushered in his glorious moment - officially put on the battlefield and joined the national football team, and he became the backbone of Chinese men's football with his extraordinary heroic attitude.
In the international arena, he has repeatedly stood up, won numerous honors for his country, and has become the pride of the national team.
However, Fan Zhiyi's outstanding performance is not limited to the international arena, on the stage of the domestic league, he has also shown unparalleled strength, leading the team to win the championship many times, and has become a bright star in the Chinese football world.
In the early 90s of the last century, the Chinese professional football league was in full swing, and Fan Zhiyi, as one of the leaders, undoubtedly became the focus of attention of the majority of fans.
In 1995, he topped the scorer list with his outstanding performance in the A-League, and successfully led Shanghai Shenhua to win the league championship two weeks ahead of schedule.
In the following years, Fan Zhiyi has always maintained an excellent competitive state, he has repeatedly won glory for the country, and has continuously achieved good results in various domestic and foreign competitions, and finally won the high honor of "Asian Footballer of the Year" in 1994, becoming the first player in Chinese history to win this honor.
This great achievement also marks Fan Zhiyi's supreme position in Asian football.
In 2006, Fan Zhiyi chose to retire at the age of 36 and officially announced his retirement. Although the passionate years on the pitch have come to an end, his brilliant achievements and immortal legacy in the football world will forever be etched in people's memories.
Even though he has been away from the green field for many years, Fan Zhiyi is still active in the public eye. After retiring, he began to get involved in the entertainment industry, playing a role in a popular TV series, which attracted widespread attention.
Many netizens even said, "Stop playing football, come and act!" It can be seen that Fan Zhiyi's talent is by no means limited to football.
In recent years, Fan Zhiyi has also served as the vice chairman of the Shanghai Football Association, contributing to the development of Chinese football.
At the peak of his career, he has won the highest honor in the football world and high recognition from all walks of life, and now Fan Zhiyi has undoubtedly become an irreplaceable football idol in the hearts of many fans.
However, for Fan Zhiyi, the road to love life has not been smooth sailing. In addition to his recent happy marriage, the two marriages he has experienced before have ended in ups and downs.
The most striking is undoubtedly the divorce dispute between Fan Zhiyi and his first wife Li Qian. They tied the knot in 1995 and had a son after marriage, but the family, which was supposed to be happy, was eventually shattered.
After the divorce, Fan Zhiyi and Li Qian had a long-lasting alimony dispute. It is reported that Fan Zhiyi promised to give Li Qian up to 3 million yuan in divorce compensation and pay it in installments.
However, the fact is that Fan Zhiyi only delivered more than 1 million yuan, and the remaining 2 million yuan has never been cashed.
Faced with such a predicament, Li Qian did not hesitate to take up legal weapons, stepped forward, and brought Fan Zhiyi to court. As soon as this case was revealed, it immediately aroused widespread concern from all walks of life.
In the confusion of everyone, Fan Zhiyi insisted that he was "shy in his pocket" and could not pay all the expenses at once.
However, the court's final judgment revealed the truth, and Fan Zhiyi finally paid the remaining 2 million yuan in compensation in full to his ex-wife Li Qian. The outcome of this dispute also seems to hint at Fan Zhiyi's economic situation at that time.
As a top professional athlete, he deserves to have a good income, but when it comes to divorce alimony, there is a shortage of funds, which raises doubts about his financial situation.
Despite all the twists and turns, Li Qian finally chose to leave China and go overseas to start a new life journey and have two mixed-race children. It also shows that although they have experienced an unhappy divorce lawsuit, they have both chosen to pursue their own happiness in the end.
After the divorce dispute with his ex-wife Li Qian, Fan Zhiyi entered his second marriage. This time, his bride is named Li Lanyi, who is also an excellent woman from the entertainment industry.
Fan Zhiyi's encounter with Li Lanyi originated from a chance encounter in the air. The two fell in love at first sight and quickly fell in love. Soon after, Fan Zhiyi and Li Lanyi officially entered the marriage hall.
This marriage seems to have brought a short period of tranquility to Fan Zhiyi.
After marriage, Fan Zhiyi and Li Lanyi live a plain and warm life, and rarely appear in front of the media. They seem to have chosen a low-key and stable lifestyle, away from the hustle and bustle of the outside world.
This emotional journey, like an undercurrent in the depths of the ocean, seems to be uneventful, but in fact it is deep and turbulent. What is embarrassing is that the marriage of Mr. Fan Zhiyi and Ms. Li Lanyi did not go far after all, just like a flash in the pan, and finally became disillusioned.
The ending of this marriage, like a silent movie, without noise and hype, has become a mystery in people's hearts.
It is not difficult to imagine that Mr. Fan Zhiyi undoubtedly suffered a heavy blow to the failure of this marriage. Since then, for a long time, it has been difficult for us to see him active in the media arena, as if he wants to escape reality in this way and hide his inner pain.
This undoubtedly revealed the end of that marriage, leaving a deep wound and an indelible shadow on his psyche.
However, the god of fate did not give up on testing him. After experiencing two marriage setbacks, Mr. Fan Zhiyi finally ushered in his third spring, entered the palace of marriage with Ms. Zhang Mengjin, and regained the happiness that belonged to him.
Their sweet life, like a warm ray of sunshine, illuminates Mr. Fan Zhiyi's once gloomy heart, enabling him to bravely face the past and welcome the future.
Despite his unparalleled achievements in football and a happy family life, Fan has been the subject of controversy in recent years.
In 2022, Mr. Fan Zhiyi's words and deeds in a variety show once again aroused heated discussions among the public, and in the live interactive session, Mr. Fan Zhiyi responded emotionally to the criticism of netizens, and even frankly said, "What's wrong with me making so much money? This remark undoubtedly aroused the strong disgust of the majority of netizens.
Other guests present at the time, such as Mr. Ma Mingyu and Mr. Li Weifeng, stepped forward to try to stop Mr. Fan Zhiyi's imminent out-of-control behavior.
It can be seen that his emotions at that time had reached an irrepressible level, which undoubtedly aroused widespread doubts about Mr. Fan Zhiyi's personality traits from all walks of life.
In addition, the nationality of Mr. Fan Zhiyi's children has also become a hot topic of public discussion. According to related reports, both of Mr. Fan Zhiyi's children have become American citizens.
In response to this, Mr. Fan explained that this was due to the fact that his wife needed to travel to the United States to work, so the children were born overseas and obtained local citizenship.
However, such an explanation does not seem to convince everyone. As a well-known Chinese sports superstar, Fan Zhiyi's children have American citizenship, and there is no doubt that this phenomenon will arouse deep doubts about his family concepts and values.
When confronted with these controversial events, Fan Zhiyi has always shown a firm and slightly provocative posture. He didn't show much guilt or humility, but defended himself bluntly, even with a hint of contempt for his critics.
This way of doing things has undoubtedly further deepened the public's negative evaluation of his character.
Although Fan Zhiyi's achievements in football are undoubted, these controversial incidents have undoubtedly affected his social reputation to some extent.
Even though he has been retired for many years, he still can't completely get rid of these controversies, which has undoubtedly become a huge obstacle in his life.
Despite all the controversies and accusations, Fan Zhiyi's life today can still be called a winner in life. Not only has he achieved great success in his career, but his family life is also happy.
In terms of career, Fan Zhiyi has maintained a positive working state despite being retired for many years. He is currently the Vice Chairman of the Shanghai Football Association and contributes to the development of football in China.
In addition, in recent years, Fan Zhiyi has also set foot in the entertainment industry, playing a role in a popular TV series, which has been warmly appreciated by the audience for his talent, and has once again been affirmed by the public.
Not only that, Fan Zhiyi's family life is now happy. In 2016, he tied the knot with dancer Zhang Mengjin, who was 17 years younger than him, and had a son and a daughter after marriage.
Although there are doubts about their age difference, the relationship between this loving couple grows stronger and stronger.
To sum up, today's Fan Zhiyi can be described as a winner in life. Not only did he achieve remarkable success in his career, but his family life was also extremely happy.
Although he has experienced ups and downs on the emotional road, now he has finally found his own happiness and has become the envy of everyone.
