In the UK, a country full of vitality and opportunities, Ding Junhui even owns a luxury house worth millions of pounds.
However, the glorious life that Ding Junhui enjoys today can actually be traced back to the passionate and challenging years of his youth. At that time, his father Ding Wenjun once made a bold and impassioned "big gamble" decision - in order to allow the talented Ding Junhui to devote himself to the billiards career, Ding Wenjun did not hesitate to sell his painstaking business, and even let his son give up his studies and go all out to support him to become a professional golfer.
Looking back now, we have to sigh that the bet was a complete success in the end.
In addition to the great success in his career, Ding Junhui's family life is also happy and happy. His wife, Zhang Yuanyuan, is a magazine editor from a wealthy family, and the two have been working together for many years and have a deep relationship.
Their 8-year-old daughter, Ding Ding, is the baby bump in the family, lively and cute. The family of three is happy and lives a carefree and privileged life.
2. Let's go back to the past and review those unforgettable moments: How did Ding Wenjun discover the extraordinary talent of his 8-year-old son Ding Junhui in that special year in 1995, and personally created a "billiards prodigy"?
The story begins in 1995, when 8-year-old Ding Junhui spent the first few years of his life in a small village in his hometown in Shandong. Ding Junhui was born in an ordinary family, his father Ding Wenjun is the owner of a local store, although the scale of the business is not large, but it is enough to support the basic living needs of the family.
Ding Wenjun has had a strong interest in billiards since he was a child, and every weekend he will meet with a few like-minded friends to go to the billiards hall in the village to learn skills.
One day, Ding Wenjun had a whim and took his son Ding Junhui with him.
At first, he just hoped that his son could experience his favorite sport, but he never expected that this experience would completely change Ding Junhui's life path.
In the few minutes when Ding Wenjun briefly left the arena for some reason, the audience at the scene was restless, and asked Ding Junhui, a talented player who was only 8 years old, to come to the stage to compete fiercely with local masters.
However, what is amazing is that the young Ding Junhui showed amazing strength and successfully defeated his opponent, which instantly caused the audience to cheer! .
At this time, Ding Wenjun watched the scene in front of him, and his heart was deeply shaken. He immediately made an important decision: to go all out to train his son and create a bright star in the billiards world!
Since that day, Ding Wenjun has devoted all his resources to the cause of cultivating Ding Junhui without reservation. First of all, he arranged for his son to start working and studying, and then he demolished the family's small shop without hesitation and invested in the construction of a billiards hall to provide his son with endless space to practice.
The most radical thing is that when Ding Junhui finished primary school, Ding Wenjun did not hesitate to suggest that he give up his studies and focus on billiards. He is eager to create a professional-level and distraction-free training environment for his son.
The third part, Ding Wenjun's risky decision: In order to cultivate Ding Junhui wholeheartedly, he resolutely gave up his stable job, and even let his son interrupt his studies and devote himself to the billiards career.
For Ding Wenjun, Ding Junhui's determination to devote himself to the billiards career is extremely firm. For the sake of his child's future, he is willing to pay any price.
First of all, Ding Wenjun decided to let Ding Junhui, who had just entered primary school, change to a half-day learning mode, only taking half-day classes every day, and using the rest of the time for billiards training.
Despite his family's concerns, Ding Wenjun has his own unique perspective – he knows that traditional schooling does not fully tap his son's natural potential.
However, this is only part of his plan.
As a result, Ding Wenjun did not hesitate to sacrifice his only stable income, just to provide his son with an unlimited practice venue. However, even so, he still felt that it was not enough.
When Ding Junhui graduated from primary school, Ding Wenjun proposed a bolder idea to him: drop out of school! He hoped that his son could devote himself wholeheartedly to billiards training and completely get rid of the trouble of study.
This decision will undoubtedly make Ding Junhui's future full of uncertainties, but Ding Wenjun has great confidence in his son's talent.
Relatives and friends have persuaded them, believing that this may ruin the child's bright future. However, Ding Wenjun was unwavering.
The fourth part, British love: 22-year-old Ding Junhui met Zhang Yuanyuan in the UK, and the two gradually developed feelings and finally tied the knot.
In 1995, the 15-year-old Ding Junhui had already emerged on the international billiards stage and successfully won the first career championship trophy! After seven years of tempering, in 2002, the 22-year-old Ding Junhui decided to move to the United Kingdom for more professional and systematic training, in order to improve his skills to a higher level.
During those days of living in England, an encounter that changed the trajectory of Ding Junhui's fate quietly came. That year, he met an Asian woman named Zhang Yuanyuan, a magazine editor who was six years older than him.
Ding Junhui, who first arrived in the UK, often felt difficult to integrate into the local society due to language barriers and cultural differences, and his personality was slightly introverted and shy. However, Zhang Yuanyuan did not hesitate to extend a hand of friendship to him, caring passionately for the young athlete from China.
Ding Junhui was deeply grateful for Zhang Yuanyuan's care, and the two gradually established a deep friendship, often meeting to chat and stroll, and their relationship became increasingly intimate.
With the passage of time, Ding Junhui was deeply attracted by Zhang Yuanyuan's gentle and considerate personality. This woman gave him a kind of homely warmth, as if it could fill some kind of hole in the depths of his heart.
In their hearts, a flame called love gradually ignited, blazing and passionate.
Finally, in 2010, after knowing each other for many years, they entered the palace of marriage in the UK and opened a new chapter in their lives. Zhang Yuanyuan also resolutely quit his job and became a full-time housewife, devoting himself to taking care of her husband and taking care of the house.
Whenever Ding Junhui achieves good results on the field, Zhang Yuanyuan always sends his most sincere blessings as soon as possible, and shares the unique glory that belongs to the player with his lover.
5. Just when his career was booming, his mother died of a recurrence of breast cancer, and Ding Junhui suffered a heavy blow but still moved forward firmly
Just as Ding Junhui's career was in full swing and his reputation and wealth were rising, a heavy blow came unexpectedly. His mother tragically relapsed and left us forever at some point a year later, at the age of 55.
It turned out that Ding Junhui's mother had been diagnosed with breast cancer many years ago, but fortunately, it was effectively controlled through surgical treatment at that time. However, in order not to affect her son's training, the mother did not get enough rest after the operation, but continued to work hard in the housework.
It wasn't until Ding Junhui bought a mansion in the British area and brought his mother to live together that the pain of the disease that originated from a long period of time was once again revealed, and its severity had reached an incurable state.
When his mother passed away suddenly, the spiritual impact on Ding Junhui was like a thunderbolt from the sky, making his heart like a knife. Filled with deep guilt, I regret that I had not given my mother a full chance to recuperate.
However, now, in the face of irreparable remorse, he can only say goodbye to his mother silently in his heart, and burn all his life in self-pursuit in order to comfort his mother's soul in heaven, so as to prove that he is worthy of his mother's expectations and trust.
Despite experiencing such a heavy life change, Ding Junhui has never sunk in pain. On the contrary, he devoted himself to the billiards career with a firmer will, determined to make his achievements continue to surpass, and live up to his mother's ardent expectations and trust.
Sure enough, in the next few years, Ding Junhui repeatedly achieved great results in the international arena and achieved remarkable results.
