At the Tokyo Olympics, the men's gymnastics all-around team won the third place, and Xiao Ruoteng won the silver medal in the all-around. It is a pity that women's gymnastics has not been able to win in the team and individual all-around competitions.
Such achievements can't help but make people start to miss the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, the brilliant achievements of Chinese gymnasts. There is nothing wrong with turning the gymnastics generation of 2008 into the "golden generation".
Athletes who participated in the men's gymnastics in the Olympic Games in 2008 included Li Xiaopeng, Yang Wei, Chen Yibing, Zou Kai, Xiao Qin and Huang Xu, who won the men's gymnastics all-around team championship by absolute advantage.
In the individual competition, Yang Wei won the men's gymnastics all-around championship and the second place in the hanging ring; Chen Yibing won the hanging ring championship; Zou Kai won the free gymnastics and horizontal bar championship; Li Xiaopeng won the parallel bar championship; xiao Qin won the kurama championship.
6 people, a total of 7 gold and 1 silver, such a brilliant record, in the history of Chinese gymnastics, can be called the ancients, the last comer.
The results of the men's gymnastics team at the Beijing Olympic Games are too dazzling, and the names of several athletes can be described as household names, which also laid the foundation for some of them to enter the entertainment circle and lay the mass foundation.
Li Xiaopeng took his daughter Ollie to participate in the reality show "Daddy is Back", the angelic Ollie cuteened the hearts of countless people, and Li Xiaopeng successfully entered the entertainment circle.
Subsequently, Li Xiaopeng took his wife Li Anqi to participate in "The Amazing Race". "Extraordinary Partner", "Hello! Li Xiaopeng is also featured in variety shows such as "Life Home".
Relatively speaking, Li Xiaopeng is the most moist among the 5 people, retired from fame and fortune, and the family is also very happy.
Yang Wei's state is also good, taking his son Yang Yangyang to participate in the reality show "Where Did Daddy Go", accumulating a large number of "son fans". Yang Yangyang's understanding and cuteness have made many viewers remember it to this day.
However, after Yang Wei participated in "Daddy", he did not continue to develop in the entertainment industry. He chose to continue his gymnastics career, not only taking over the provincial gymnast management center, but also obtaining the international referee license in gymnastics.
I have to say that Yang Wei is really good, and Chinese gymnastics really needs more talents to enter the refereeing industry, so as to make our athletes as fair as possible.
Zou Kai not only achieved brilliant results at the Beijing Olympic Games, but also won the free gymnastics championship at the 2012 London Olympic Games, holding 5 Olympic gold medals, breaking Li Ning's record of 4 Olympic gold medals.
This year, Zou Kai took his wife Zhou Jie to participate in "Wife's Romantic Trip", and the couple's mode of getting along was also hotly discussed by netizens.
However, Zou Kai did not want to completely enter the entertainment industry, but continued to engage in politics and work hard for the future development of sports.
Chen Yibing also briefly tried the water in the entertainment industry, and in 2015 he participated in the reality show "Shining Daddy", but there was no action since then.
After retiring from the army, Chen Yibing and his own physical coach started a sports management company, and now it has become a chain of high-end sports clubs.
Now, Chen Yibing often posts videos of his usual lessons to club students.
Chen Yibing is a master who keeps up with the trend, his vlog has been filmed for more than 50 issues, and he also maintains high-frequency interaction with netizens.
During the Tokyo Olympic Games, he was also very busy, not only to record volg to share his viewing experience, but also to do live broadcasting and interact with netizens.
In addition, he was also invited to CCTV as a special guest. His retirement life can be described as colorful.
After huang xu retired from the army, he concentrated on becoming a coach in Jiangsu Province, and is now the leader of Jiangsu gymnastics.
Huang Xu is very low-key on the Internet, and recently he has also spoken out to cheer for Xiao Ruoteng. It has been 3 years since he last updated his personal Weibo.
Huang Xu usually has free time, and will also participate in some sports programs to popularize the knowledge of gymnastics for everyone. In short, he is a doer who has been working hard for the gymnastics career.
In addition, Xiao Qin has been far away from the public's vision for a long time because of the problem of private morality. Just like after Xiao Ruoteng won the silver medal this time, Li Xiaopeng, Chen Yibing and five others all sent Microblogs, only Xiao Qin was there, and no one knew what he was doing now.
Their lives are not bad now. Thanks to the glory and pride brought to the public by the "golden generation" of gymnastics, I hope that Chinese gymnastics will continue to refuel!
