author:The Man in the Iron Mask interprets historical figures

Mr. Lu Enchun, the first captain of the New China National Gymnastics Team, a veteran of Chinese gymnastics, the first generation of gymnasts in New China, and one of the first international referees in China to hold an international referee certificate.

In the Chinese gymnastics world, Lu Enchun is a legendary figure, he is the first captain of the Chinese national gymnastics team, has won many domestic championships, he is also an excellent coach of the national team, has cultivated Zhang Jian, Gao Jian, Chen Xiong and other famous players, in addition, he is also one of the first international referees in China to hold an international referee certificate, has participated in including the World Championships, Many international gymnastics competitions, including the Olympic Games and the World Cup, some people say that Lu Enchun's experience is almost a history of the development of Chinese gymnastics. Lu's prediction was accurate, and in that race, Xiao Qin was worthy of the title of pommel horse king and won the championship. Professional analysis and accurate prediction, this state has long been commonplace for Lu Enchun, who has been a gymnast, coach and referee all his life, and has experienced the most core aspects of gymnastics, and among them, the experience of being a referee, especially an international referee, has given him a lot of special feelings. That is, you have Chinese sitting there as a referee, and you have no Chinese sitting there as a referee, two likes, for example, in the 1989 World Championships, Li Ning landed, jumped on the ground, squatted down, snapped, sat there, how to deduct points, several referees deducted 0.5 points, sat there, and then told the referee that the action had been completed, stopped, and then sat after completion, this 0.5 points should not be deducted, and then they studied and agreed, and 0.5 points were deducted less. It was this 0.5 points that was deducted to help the Chinese team defeat their opponents at that World Championships, making the Chinese men's gymnastics team win the men's team championship. Lu Enchun said that if he was not present at the time, or if there was no Chinese referee present, maybe no one would have raised objections to the referee, and then the gold medal might have passed by China. Gymnastics is different from other competitive competitions in that it does not use the number of goals scored as a sole criterion like basketball or soccer. In gymnastics, the subjective judgment of the referee is a decisive factor in how many points an athlete can score for a set of movements. Now the video recording is so convenient, I see that I still have errors, there must be errors, the action is so fast, how do you know this action, whether he did it or not, whether it is 360 degrees or 540 degrees.

In the absence of video, what kind of standard a certain fleeting gymnastics movement has reached, or what kind of rules it violates, may not be very easy to judge, so at this time, it is very important to have a referee from his country to put forward his opinion in a timely manner, and Lu Enchun said that whether there is a referee present shows whether the country has the right to speak in the gymnastics world, and it also plays an important role in the victory or defeat of the gymnastics competition.

Gymnastics is transmitted from the West, Switzerland is the base of gymnastics, the base of the Gymnastics Association, the hometown is in Switzerland, Switzerland, Sweden, the former Soviet Union, the Czech Republic, and later Japan, Japan is very powerful, the power is in their hands, how to set the rules, how to play the rules, what are the prescribed actions, the difficulty of the optional movements, what are the points, how to compare, you have no one in China, and then we went in, a member of the individual committee, in other words, How to compare, listen to others, let others slaughter, change the rules we don't know, people have been practicing for a year, the prescribed action is set by others, everyone has practiced for a year, international competitions before sending it down, you have to take it, find this translation, you have to translate, you have no information, no diagrams, and when you finish practicing for a long time, go there to see, maybe individual actions, people say that it is not like that, and you have to deduct points, so now it is better than before, there are our committee members in, because of what, China is the world champion, You can't underestimate it. Now China has indisputably become a world-class sports power, but when the Chinese gymnastics team was formally established in November 1953, gymnastics, a foreign sport, has just started in China, and at this time, gymnastics has a history of more than 1,000 years in the West, and the World Gymnastics Championships have been held for 12 sessions. It is not surprising that the referees of some countries have some unpleasant feelings. China is making rapid progress, I envy you, and finally surpassed him and won the championship, in 1983, the World Championships won the men's team championship for the first time, he hated you, you have to show your real strength to beat him, so that he can't turn over, he is convinced, you are the world champion, this is okay, otherwise it will not work, so until 1982, Li Ning won six individual championships, and then it was all shaken, at first you were good, and then you were good, so that you have to tie for a championship. Like this Ma Yanhong, who won the uneven bars world championship in 1979 and the world uneven bars championship at the age of fifteen, foreign countries are very surprised, but she is not alone, and she is tied with Germany's Gnauck, you are better than her You can only tie. Look at Huang Yubin, the first rings champion to win the World Cup, and he was also tied with Makuts of the former Soviet Union, and the two of them stood there. Li Yuejiu is also tied with German athletes, and he won't let you go it alone.

To make China a real gymnastics power, it seems that it is no longer enough to work on technology, and Chinese gymnasts have decided to take the initiative and fight for China's rights in the gymnastics world. In January 1980, Lu Eun-chun went to Moscow to take the exam for the International Gymnastics Referee Certificate. It's not good to test, it's action, difficulty, rules, etc., some places have to answer in English, where is this test judge, this is the test in English, for example, you have an action, how about this action, how many points to deduct, you have to answer it immediately, because the gymnastics competition is a look, split the legs, deduct zero points, this action is missed, how many points are deducted, there is no more consideration, so when the referee is tested, it is also combined with the game, what is the name of this action, what is the name, How do I write it, for example, there is a "spin", which is the Chinese name, the whirlwind of the whirlwind, the Japanese Tsukahara invented, Tsukahara somersault, because it turns back and forth like the moon, the moon somersault, the official name is a backflip for two weeks, and the body turns 360 degrees at the same time, and there are four names for one action. The examination of the international gymnastics referee certificate is held every four years, and since 1988, more and more Chinese referees have obtained the international gymnastics referee certificate, and now there are a considerable number. In 1980, there were only two people who got the referee certificate at the same time as Lu Enchun, which means that in the early eighties of the last century, there were only three gymnastics referees with international referee qualifications in the mainland. In August 1980, Lu Enchun participated in the International Gymnastics Invitational Tournament held in the United States for the first time as a referee and witnessed a bloody battle of the Chinese gymnastics team. I am a free gymnastics referee, I sit here, next to the horizontal bar, I can't look at it, I listened to our Chinese team on the horizontal bar, I feel that I heard Tengteng six or seven steps, I am almost here, I didn't stand, I looked at it, it seemed to be Huang Yubin, and then I listened to the "bang", the whole audience yelled, I didn't dare to look at anyone, who is it. At that time, Lu Enchun was a referee in floor exercise, and he had to keep an eye on the movements of the athletes on the field, but the voices behind him and the sudden exclamations of the audience repeatedly interrupted Lu Enchun's train of thought, what was it for, what happened to the Chinese athletes. Changed to free gymnastics, I saw that he was all blood, he made a string of heels from the opposite side, and finally landed, just turned around and rushed to himself, right here in his own place, he looked at it, and knocked on the horizontal bar, it turned out to be Li Yuejiu, it was Li Yuejiu who did a Ginger somersault too close, the tooth gnawed on the horizontal bar, and the tooth knocked out, and the team doctor took a piece of cotton and stuffed it for him, and after biting the cotton and comparing, he finally ran into it, and did a good job in three weeks, it was really a tough guy.

Since 1980, Lu Enchun has participated in the refereeing of dozens of international gymnastics competitions, including the most authoritative "three major competitions", the World Championships, the World Cup, and the Olympic Games. Before the special game, some referees were watching the training and had some opinions, and they immediately told the coach that if this action was done like that, what would happen, and they had to give them suggestions and give the coach a reference, because there may be some changes before the game, and it is easy for people to know this situation, and they don't know that it will not be possible to change it on the field.

The gymnastics competition is not only a technical competition, in 1983, at the scene of the 22nd World Championships, a "psychological warfare" was staged, and Lu Enchun still remembers it vividly as a referee. As soon as the former Soviet team came on the field and practiced, there were eight people in the pre-game practice, which was originally a six-person game, and there were seven people (plus one) on standby, how did it come out with one more, this belongs to engaging in psychological warfare, saying that you have not seen it, and the eight of us come up, and you look as if everyone is the main force, so that you can't figure out who is strong and who is weak. In the 1982 World Cup, Li Ning had just won six gold medals, which shook the world gymnastics world and began to look at China with admiration. This time, the 22nd World Championships was the first time that China competed with the two "gymnastics giants" at that time, the Soviet Union and Japan, so this competition was a very special competition, which attracted the attention of countless people, and also made the air between several participating teams very tense. In the face of huge psychological pressure, the Chinese team also came up with its own coping methods. China is coming to the "Ecstasy Array", how to "Ecstasy Array", also appeared before the game, Li Ning came to a somersault, extra-high, this three weeks, good guys, and then Lou Yun a vault, and a spring leg, each of them did their own good at that once, and did not do more, all went through it, no news, I don't know what actions they have in China, these are so difficult, this is the Ecstasy Formation, guessing each other before the game, no one will show their real skills.

Although the Chinese gymnastics team only won three gold medals in the men's team, men's floor exercise and horizontal bar, it was already a victory worth celebrating for the Chinese gymnastics team that was emerging at that time. It is precisely because of this competition that the world began to face up to and attach importance to the power of Chinese gymnastics, and the status of China's gymnastics power began to be gradually established.
