Now in the table tennis world, no one dares to say to her: "You can do it, you can go." "Because Zhang Yining really can!
She is not only a double Olympic champion, but also a Grand Slam winner, and has held the No. 1 position in table tennis for 83 months.
Zhang Yining is almost invincible in the world table tennis arena, but she chose to retire and get married at her peak, and the other party is a full 20 years older than her!
This love with a huge age difference is obviously not favored by the world, can Zhang Yining really reap happiness after giving up his career?
One: "Tomboy" fell in love with table tennis
Zhang Yining was very naughty when she was a child, and other girls sat quietly on the side, but she was alive and kicking like a boy.
Whether it's throwing mud or going down to the small river pond to catch loaches, she is always happy.
It's a good thing that children are innocent and playful, but Zhang Yining's overly open personality makes her mother sad.
In order to be able to lead her daughter back to the "right path", her mother decided to enroll her in a dance class, hoping to make her daughter a gentle and elegant girl in this way.
But after only one day, Zhang Yining couldn't stand the yelling and wanted to leave.
Seeing that this road would not work, Zhang Yining's mother thought that since the child loves to move, it is also a good choice to learn martial arts and be able to defend himself when he grows up.
But Zhang Yining doesn't like it either, and he doesn't like it either, it makes a big family sad.
In the end, Zhang Yining's mother simply chose to raise her daughter freely, not forcing or worrying about what to cultivate her, and occasionally taking her to do sports to ensure good health.
Once my uncle bought a few table tennis rackets, originally to help his little niece exercise, but I didn't expect Zhang Yining to fall in love at first sight after seeing the table tennis balls, and he played for many hours, and he never got tired of it.
The uncle, who has always been an amateur, saw Zhang Yining's talent at a glance, so he immediately found Zhang Yining's mother and said that letting the child learn table tennis will definitely have a great future in the future.
In order to maximize the child's advantages, the family decided to send Zhang Yining to the table tennis team of Beijing Dongdan Amateur Sports School for training after discussion.
When she first entered the school to understand, Zhang Yining couldn't take her eyes off the professional standard movements of those team members, which also made the family firm in their determination to let their children take the road of table tennis.
When he first entered the school, although Zhang Yining had an extraordinary talent in table tennis, he had not received professional training after all, so it was inevitable that he would be a little funny and awkward to do professional movements.
But even this is still difficult to hide her talent, and even the coach was surprised, thinking that this is a rare athletic talent, and it is even likely to impact the national team in the future.
At just six years old, Zhang Jianing had no idea how big the international stage was, and she simply hoped that she could train well and win the competition.
In order to be able to realize her simple pursuit, Zhang Yining was the first to get up and the latest to go back almost every day, and in just four years, she became the best athlete in the sports school.
Two: The birth of a talented athlete
At the age of ten, Zhang Yining was successfully shortlisted for the Beijing team because of his excellent skills.
Although it seems that her life has successfully stepped into a higher level, for Zhang Yining, the life here will only be a hundred or a thousand times more difficult than before.
In the past, when Zhang Yining was in the sports school, her talent and hard work made her a leader in the sports school, and almost no one was her opponent.
The growth during those four years made Zhang Yining have absolute confidence in her skills, and now that she has entered the Beijing team, she completely understands what it means to have mountains outside the mountains and people outside the people.
The Beijing team will have new people coming in at any time, and there will be people who will be eliminated at any time.
Here, cruel assessments are routine, and as long as the athletes fail to pass the assessment, they can only be persuaded to retire.
It stands to reason that when he first joined the Beijing team, Zhang Yining should feel frightened in the face of an unfamiliar environment, and he may even play abnormally.
But all these worries seem to be non-existent, and the high-intensity training in the previous four years has qualitatively improved Zhang Yining's psychological ability to resist pressure.
When facing opponents several years older than her, Zhang Yining did not show stage fright at all, and her calm and calm psychology quickly allowed her to master the rhythm of the whole game, as if this was her home stadium.
The outstanding performance of the Beijing team soon allowed Zhang Yining to step into the national team with one foot, and after entering the national team, Zhang Yining met her lifelong mentor here - Li Falcon.
Li Falcon can easily see Zhang Yining's flaws in training, and then help her break them one by one. With the help of the coach, Zhang Yining easily got through his bottleneck period, and his table tennis skills have improved a lot.
In addition to skills, Li Falcon is also very concerned about Zhang Yining's mental health. In order to let Zhang Yining correct his mentality, Li Falcon infiltrated the training of mentality into all aspects of life.
With the dual blessing of skill and psychology, Zhang Yining can be full of confidence almost every time she goes out in the ring, even if she loses, she will not be discouraged, because she knows that this will not be the last match of her life.
In 2001, at the age of 21, Zhang Yining became one of the best young players, and this year was a brilliant year in her sports career.
She has won almost all the singles championships, even the Asian Games and the World Championships, no one can match it.
At that time, some athletes prayed that they would never meet Zhang Yining on the field again in the future, she was simply terrible!
In 2004, Zhang Yining won two gold medals in his first Olympic Games and became famous in the international arena.
After this competition, Zhang Yining's sports career seemed to be on the open, and in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, Zhang Yining successfully won the double championship.
Even Wang Nan has become her subordinate, Zhang Yining at this time is like a big demon king, and even Ai Fukuhara is afraid of her.
After entering the international arena, Zhang Yining seems to have really found her own home field, from the excitement at the beginning to the dullness later, Zhang Yining said bluntly: "No one can beat her on the field." ”
He even said that he had not met an opponent at all, and it was difficult to even sweat!
If any athlete says this, he may become black material, but this person is Zhang Yining, so it's no wonder, after all, she really has this strength!
I thought that Zhang Yining would continue to fight on the field and win more honors for the world.
But at that time, Zhang Yining suddenly announced the news of your retirement, and in addition, she also brought an even more shocking news!
(This information comes from official media, and has been added at the end)
Three: a happy married life
In 2208, at the Beijing Olympic Games, Zhang Yining not only won full honors, but also gained an unexpected love.
At that time, Zhang Yining never imagined that he would fall in love with a man 20 years older than him, and even chose to get married in a flash in just three months.
The news of Zhang Yining's retirement and marriage can be described as a stir, and almost no one is optimistic about the relationship between them.
At the same time, her husband Xu Wei was also picked up in a 12-year relationship.
Xu Wei's predecessor was still the well-known actor Yuan Li, and the love between the two at that time was blessed by many people, a business wizard and a talented girl in the entertainment industry.
The two seem to be very compatible in all aspects, and at that time, in order to make Yuan Li's career go to the next level, Xu Wei did not hesitate to invest 8 million to support Yuan Li.
The relationship between the two seemed very affectionate to outsiders, but in the end it ended in a breakup.
In this 12-year relationship, Xu Wei tried to stabilize many times, but three marriage proposals were rejected.
The two survived the seven-year itch, but in the end they still failed to become each other's other half.
After the breakup, Xu Wei was not in love until he met Zhang Yining.
Xu Wei is also a table tennis enthusiast, so the two have many common hobbies and topics, which also makes Zhang Yining gradually forget the age gap between the two.
When they were first together, almost everyone was not optimistic about this relationship, even Zhang Yining's parents were no exception.
But after a period of observation, Xu Wei's personality and family background were recognized by Zhang Yining's parents, and the two got married successfully in just three months.
Can this hurried love really be happy?
Facts have proved that after getting married, Zhang Yining not only lives a happy life, but also has a happy marriage. Soon after marriage, she gave birth to a lovely daughter for Xu Wei.
The outside world is saying that during that time, Xu Wei put down a million-dollar business and made a special trip home to accompany his wife to give birth.
Now that the two have not only a daughter, but also a son, life seems uneventful, but very happy.
Epilogue:
Only each other knows the warmth and coldness in the relationship, and Zhang Yining can be said to be the biggest winner in life.
The first 25 years of life won applause from all over the world, and now the happy family life is even more enviable.
I hope that our queen of the Authority will always be happy in the future!
