Recently, according to Cantonese media reports, He Weiyi, the mentor of Olympic champion Quan Hongchan, has been promoted to the head coach of the Guangdong diving team. He Weiyi has been engaged in diving for 42 years, and now he has become the leader of the Guangdong diving team, which is undoubtedly a great praise and encouragement for him. Of course, He Weiyi can get the appreciation of the Provincial Sports Bureau, in addition to his own excellent ability, there is also an important point, that is, the two love disciples are really too contentious, Xie Sibei and Quan Hongchan won 8 gold (Olympic + National Games) in 2 months, such an excellent performance also made He Weiyi's face light, and became famous together.
He Weiyi's promotion to the head coach of the Guangdong diving team, although the official has not yet announced, but one detail is enough to determine the matter. A few days ago, He Weiyi took ai disciple Xie Sipi to attend the first Yixian Sports Medicine Summit Forum and the Sports Medicine Professional Committee of Guangdong Clinical Medicine Association held in Guangzhou. At the meeting, when the host introduced Xie Siwei, he said that he was the men's diving single and double three-meter board champion at the Tokyo Olympic Games, and He Weiyi was the head coach of the Guangdong diving team.
You know, He Weiyi was only the head coach of the Guangdong Diving Team before, and the head coach was Wu Guocun, who had brought out Olympic champions such as Lau Lishi, Hu Jia, He Chong, chen Aisen, but in June this year, Wu Guocun died of illness. After Chen Aisen led the Guangdong boy band to win the championship at the National Games, he cried bitterly when awarding the award, because he remembered his mentor Wu Guocun. Since Wu Guocun's death, the position of head coach of the Guangdong diving team has been vacant, and now, He Weiyi has taken over, which is undoubtedly the best result.
He Weiyi was once a member of the Guangdong diving team, and his coach was Zheng Guanzhi, who was known as the "godmother of Guangdong diving". Coach He has revealed that he has been engaged in diving for 42 years from athlete to coach. Nowadays, He Weiyi, who has been promoted to the head coach of the Guangdong diving team, has finally survived, and he deserves it!
In the current Guangdong diving team, there are many athletes who are he Weiyi's disciples, but the most famous ones are Xie Sibei and Quan Hongchan. This pair of brothers and sisters, that's quite amazing. Xie Sibei won 5 gold medals in the Olympic Games + National Games, and Quan Hongchan also had 3 gold in the account, and the two won 8 golds in 2 months, as if they were "buying". At the National Games, He Weiyi, as a coach, also stood on the highest podium with Xie Sibei and Quan Hongchan, and was extremely proud.
It is worth mentioning that because Quan Hongchan is about to report to the national team, she and her mentor He Weiyi will also usher in a farewell. Unlike the Tokyo Olympics, which was briefly separated by 2 months, this time it may take half a year before the master and apprentice can see each other again. After all, He Weiyi is the head coach of the Guangdong team, and he cannot follow Quan Hongchan to the national team. When talking about the imminent separation from his disciples, He Weiyi said a little sadly, "I may not see her until half a year later, or a year later." When the time comes, she will grow taller, will change a lot, and become a big girl. ”
He Weiyi has officially become the head coach of Quan Hong Chan since March 2018, and now it has been almost 4 years, Quan Hong Chan has not lived up to the cultivation of her mentor, and 3 gold medals are the best reward. However, in the future road, Quan Hong Chan needs to rely on herself more!
