She is the leader of Quan Hongchan and has witnessed the glory of Guo Jingjing, why is Zhou Jihong in controversy? Let's analyze it in detail.
Guo Jingjing's mentor Zhou Jihong
In the blink of an eye, the Tokyo Olympic Games have come to an end, and the Chinese diving team finally ended with an impressive result of 7 gold and 5 silver. After the Tokyo Olympic Games ended, Guo Jingjing, Li Wenwen, Yang Qian, Yang Shuyu and others came to a live broadcast together, and the former "diving queen" Guo Jingjing burst into tears in the live broadcast room.
Guo Jingjing is passionate about diving, and in the live broadcast, she mentioned her mentor Zhong Shaozhen several times, choking up several times, saying, "She pulled me at the lowest point of my life." After marrying into the rich and becoming Mrs. Huo, Guo Jingjing rarely had such an excited time outside, netizens could understand her excited mood, but it was also very unexpected, Guo Jingjing did not mention her other mentor - Zhou Jihong.
"Iron Lady" Zhou Jihong
Zhou Jihong became famous in the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, when she was only 19 years old, and it was this jump that made her China's first Olympic diving champion, thus opening a new era for the Chinese diving team. However, at that time, the diving team was also facing the dilemma of no successor, and Zhou Jihong, who had retired at that time, did not want to see the diving team disbanded, so she chose to make a comeback and officially take charge of the diving team.
Zhou Jihong is also known as the Olympic "Iron Lady", in addition to her proud diving results, but also because she dares to fight very decisive and determined. After taking charge of the diving team, Zhou Jihong trained a number of well-known diving team members, such as Tian Liang, Guo Jingjing, Fu Mingxia, Hu Jia and so on. In the case of a successor, the diving team also encountered another problem, that is, it was treated unfairly for various reasons. So Zhou Jihong desperately studied English and went to the international swimming general office, just to break this situation. Zhou Jihong has also held many positions in the international swimming team, such as the member of the Diving Science and Technology Committee and the executive committee of the international swimming general, and has worked hard for the national diving team.
Zhou Jihong with iron wrist, not only won the nickname of "Iron Lady", but also really gave the diving team a new look, Zhou Jihong's Chinese diving team, eventually became the "dream team" in everyone's mouth, won countless awards, and the controversy about her has never stopped. Netizens are quite interesting about the three focuses of Zhou Jihong's attention.
First, Zhou Jihong and Tian Liang's enmity began and ended
The name Zhou Jihong, if it is not because of the Olympic Games, people who do not pay attention to the sports world, in fact, there are not many people who know, but Tian Liang is different, from the Olympic champion to the entertainment industry star artists, or a handful, Tian Liang is one of the bits.
Most of the impressions of the younger generation on Tian Liang come from the mango variety show "Where Did Daddy Go" that was once popular all over the country, many post-95s and post-00s first knew that Tian Liang was a star, and then learned that he was once an Olympic diving champion, with dozens of gold medals of different levels, large and small. In the early years, Tian Liang and Zhou Jihong had a grudge. In the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games, Tian Liang won the first Olympic diving gold medal in his life, he jumped to fame, because of Tian Liang's unique affinity and beautiful appearance, Tian Liang gained a large number of fans, and was therefore called "Diving Prince" by the media.
After the popularity of Tian Liang, but was tragically removed from the national team, and the relationship with his mentor Zhou Jihong was also reduced to a freezing point. Subsequently, it was reported that Tian Liang was personally fired by Zhou Jihong. The most crucial reason for Tian Liang's dismissal is that some of his practices run counter to Zhou Jihong's vision of the diving team.
The rules of the Chinese diving team are very strict, Zhou Jihong does not allow the team members to take advertising endorsements privately, and Tian Liang, who has excellent results and looks handsome, has become the darling of advertising sponsors after becoming popular. In 2005, Zhou Jihong expelled Tian Liang from the national team on the grounds that he had participated in too many commercial activities and violated the rules of the team, although Tian Liang was still at the peak of a professional athlete at that time.
Second, Zhou Jihong has the national sentiment of "striving for upward mobility" in the international swimming pool
Zhou Jihong's most touching point to netizens is her efforts to make Chinese diving have a voice in international swimming. In order to enter the International Swimming General, Zhou Jihong painstakingly learned English and served in the International Swimming General, and Zhou Jihong has held many positions. Zhou Jihong not only works herself, she also has a long-term vision, began to cultivate successors early, when she was still a coach, she took Guo Jingjing and Chen Ruolin to learn English at her own expense to prepare for their future entry into the international swimming team.
At that time, Guo Jingjing was pregnant with a big belly, participated in the international referee training exam, and did not live up to Zhou Jihong's expectations, it can be said that Guo Jingjing was brought by Zhou Jihong to the Tokyo Olympic Games to supervise the position of referee. Whether it is Zhou Jihong or Guo Jingjing, their efforts are for the future of the Chinese diving team to go more smoothly, and this national sentiment is touching.
III. Zhou Jihong and Guo Jingjing's "Teacher-Student Relationship"
Zhou Jihong once commented on Guo Jingjing, who has made great contributions to China's diving and created a Guo Jingjing era of her own. Speaking of which, Zhou Jihong and Guo Jingjing, they also have a long relationship between teachers and students. For Guo Jingjing, Zhou Jihong has always been maintained, Guo Jingjing was still in the national team for a certain period of time, she was criticized by the media, saying that she played a big card, and suspected that Guo Jingjing herself had problems with her own quality.
Some media once suspected "connotation" Guo Jingjing, "The Chinese team members will 'unconsciously' bypass the media mixing area, so that the reporters who have been waiting for a long time 'can't be caught'; what's more, some famous generals have actually learned the 'acting skills' of some people in the entertainment industry..."
Ai Tu was besieged, and Zhou Jihong, who dared to pat the table with the referee on the field, couldn't help it, and she defended Guo Jingjing, "She (Guo Jingjing) is under a lot of pressure, and I hope that everyone can give the athletes more understanding and support, which is also a kind of protection for them." ”
epilogue
In terms of merit, Zhou Jihong did indeed lead the Chinese diving team to win 31 gold medals. But in terms of black history, she is suspected of embezzling Yu Fen's bonus and also fired good seedlings. However, despite being caught in public opinion, it did not affect her career, as a meritorious service of the diving team, she served as a team leader during the low period of the diving team, breaking the international doubts about China.
Step by step to lead the diving team to the top of the world, no matter how the world comments, Zhou Jihong's contribution to the field of diving in China is obvious to all, and there are few coaches who dare to make a big fuss in the referee's court for fairness.
Because of the grievances of this gymnastics competition, I believe that many people will have a resonance: all scoring projects need a weekly red too much. It is useless to just scold the referees on the Internet and shout about the Olympic spirit, and the most important thing is that we still have to "have someone in the DPRK." Finally, I hope that the "Iron Lady" can cultivate more excellent seedlings and make greater contributions to the country!
