As we all know, our people have always paid special attention to sports, especially the women's volleyball team and table tennis team.
In addition to having an extremely difficult position in their own fields, the reason why 1.3 billion Chinese unanimously like and support them from the bottom of their hearts is also because these sports show tenacious struggle and indomitable sportsmanship, and are sought after by everyone.
However, there will always be one person who, from time to time, makes shocking remarks to the fans, commenting on our women's volleyball team and table tennis team.
His seemingly light comments are sometimes a painful blow to the development of our sports, if he is just an ordinary commentator, it just so happens that he is a pivotal big man in our sports world, and this person is Wei Jizhong.
Who is he sacred?What shocking claims does he make about our sporting development?
The name Wei Jizhong is by no means unfamiliar to Chinese volleyball fans and table tennis fans. The evaluation of him has always been mixed.
Once you have an idea of his achievements, you will realize his place in the Chinese sports world.
Wei Ji was born in a well-to-do family in Shanghai, and it was in the winter of 1936. His father was a businessman in Hong Kong who had a thriving business, so Wei Jizhong lived a carefree and served life since he was a child.
The Wei family was wealthy and attached great importance to their children's education, so Wei Jizhong was instilled with the concept of studying hard since he was a child.
Wei Jizhong has outstanding competitiveness and mental power, and his academic achievements are outstanding.
With his outstanding performance, Wei Jizhong was successfully admitted to Nanjing University, majoring in Western language and literature, which happened in 1954.
During his college years, Wei Jizhong actively participated in the cultural and sports activities organized by the school, and achieved remarkable results, and he longed to enter a good unit after graduation.
At that time, college students were very popular, and they were able to find good jobs quickly after graduation.
Since he came from a capitalist family, Wei Jizhong had no idea what kind of work he could do in the future.
Although Wei Jizhong majored in foreign languages, he was not eligible to be assigned to an external liaison position like ***.
Wei Jizhong anxiously watched as his classmates were all assigned to their favorite departments, and there were words of suffering in his heart. But fortunately, after some organizational considerations, he was finally assigned to the National Sports Commission.
Wei Jizhong, a sports layman who learns foreign languages, has formed a "fateful fate" with sports from the very beginning.
Wei Jizhong's greatest contribution to China's sports community is to help our Olympic team successfully win the right to host the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games by providing guidance and support behind the scenes.
Our people have always regarded hosting the Olympic Games as one of their dreams.
Hosting the Olympic Games is not only an opportunity to showcase the country's comprehensive strength, but also an excellent opportunity to promote the country's development.
Wei Jizhong and his colleagues initially came up with the idea of bidding for the Olympics and took action with the support of the organization. Although they have experienced all kinds of twists and turns, Wei Jizhong and his team have overcome all kinds of difficulties with extraordinary wisdom.
Although we narrowly failed in our first bid for the Olympic Games, the seeds of our bid for the Olympics have taken deep root in the hearts of our people.
Wei Jizhong has always felt ashamed of the expectations of the Chinese people because of the failure of the last Olympic bid, so he decided to withdraw from the stage during the second Olympic bid and let young people participate in the competition instead of him, and he is only responsible for making suggestions behind the scenes.
After thorough preparation, we finally won the right to host the 2008 Olympic Games.
Mr. Wei Jizhong's contribution cannot be ignored, and he is often mentioned when we talk about the Olympic Games we host. Since then, we can't talk about the Olympics without mentioning him.
If Wei Ji chooses to retire at this time and enjoy his old age in peace, then the evaluation of him should be praised, after all, he has indeed accomplished a remarkable thing.
However, Wei Jizhong did not accept the fact of aging, and was still active in the sports world, and expressed his opinions on the management and appointment of personnel in some sports projects, which caused a lot of controversy over time.
In 2022, Cai Bin will become the head coach of my country's women's volleyball team against the background of much controversy.
With Wei Jizhong's strong support, Cai Bin was able to obtain this opportunity, and he was eager to prove his coaching ability through this opportunity.
However, practice has proved that Cai Bin's command is indeed a big disappointment, and under his leadership, our women's volleyball team has achieved the worst results in recent years.
Cai Bin's "dish" is not something that can be prepared in a while. In 2009, Cai Bin led our women's volleyball team to the Asian Championships, but unexpectedly lost to the Thai team.
From Wei Jizhong's point of view, even if Cai Bin's technical level is average, he is a rare coaching talent.
Why are fans so disgusted by Wei Jizhong's strong support for Cai Bin?The volleyball world is losing respect for him because of his old-fashioned thinking and frequent outlandish remarks.
In order to consolidate his position, Wei Jizhong urgently needed to support his cronies. In this case, his fellow villager Cai Bin is undoubtedly the most ideal choice.
Before Cai Bin took over as the head coach of the women's volleyball team, this position was held by Chen Zhonghe. Chen Zhonghe joined the women's volleyball coaching staff in 1979 and served as an assistant coach to the sparring coach and Lang Ping.
After decades of training in the women's volleyball team, his coaching level has become more and more mature. When Chen Zhonghe assumed the job of head coach of the women's volleyball team, the women's volleyball team was still in a downturn.
Chen Zhonghe was indescribably under the pressure of being appointed in a critical situation, but he successfully turned these pressures into motivation to move forward.
Under his leadership, our women's volleyball team has performed better and better, and its results have become more and more dazzling. Especially in the Athens Olympics, they went against the current, finally won the championship, and successfully regained the top of the world women's volleyball team.
Chen's coaching ability and talent are testament to his outstanding results, and the fans have spoken highly of him.
Wei Jizhong didn't know what Chen Zhonghe had done wrong and couldn't win his favor. Wei Jizhong has been trying to fire Chen Zhonghe to prevent him from making a difference in the head coach position.
Finally, during the 2008 Beijing Olympics, Wei Jizhong exposed Chen Zhonghe's "little braids".
The women's volleyball team failed to play at its true level at that time, so the results achieved were not satisfactory, and they barely won the bronze medal.
Fans expressed their satisfaction with this result, believing that the women's volleyball team showed a top mental state, and there is no need to blame for the almost luck.
Wei Jizhong took the opportunity to accuse Chen Zhonghe of losing the championship at home, and constantly pressured the Volleyball Association to let Chen Zhonghe leave class.
In the face of strong pressure, Chen Zhonghe was isolated and eventually had to resign as head coach with reluctance in his heart.
Ma Yunwen, the former female ranking general, revealed in an online interview that Chen Zhonghe's dismissal from class was not a personal will, but a forced choice.
Ma Yunwen said that we are all very much looking forward to the coach staying and continuing to guide us, but things are not entirely up to us, and there are some reasons that cannot be controlled.
On many public occasions, Chen Zhonghe has also expressed his reluctance to leave class, but the details are not easy to explain in a few words.
Wei Jizhong promoted his confidant Cai Bin immediately after Chen Zhonghe was forced out of class.
Some sharp netizens bluntly said that the reason why Wei Jizhong did that was because he thought that the team led by Chen Zhonghe was very good, and he could achieve brilliant achievements again with only a little adjustment. At this time, if Cai Bin is promoted, it will be easy to succeed.
However, in this way, the entire team was "paralyzed" by him.
Cai Bin's talent has been verified in one game after another, which makes the majority of fans reaffirm his talent.
Wei Jizhong stood up for Cai Bin and called on fans to give young coaches a chance and support Cai Bin to use the women's volleyball team to "try and make mistakes", regardless of the feelings of fans.
For the Chinese people, women's volleyball is not just a sports competition, more often, it represents our emotions and spirit.
Through the sport of volleyball, we can praise and spread the spirit of perseverance and perseverance that is deeply rooted in the blood of our nation, and this is by no means the "trial and error field" that Wei Jizhong and Cai Bin said.
Wei Jizhong not only has a lot of opinions on the affairs of the women's volleyball team, but also shows his magic in table tennis.
Wei Jizhong seems to prefer to put other people's achievements under the halo, he first suppressed the women's volleyball stars, and then began to meddle in the field of table tennis.
Although Wei Jizhong did not actually hold power, his position was still extraordinary, so his opinion remained relevant.
Wei Jizhong, in the name of reform, ousted Liu Guoliang from power.
He believes that Liu Guoliang's prestige and status in the table tennis world are too prominent, which poses a hidden danger to the table tennis world. Liu Guoliang's personal views may directly affect the use of table tennis players in China, which may breed corruption.
Lau has long held senior positions, so young people should be given the opportunity to see that hard work can lead to promotion.
Wei Jizhong's suggestion was adopted by the Table Tennis Association, and a thorough reform of the national table tennis management team was carried out, resulting in Liu Guoliang no longer serving as the head coach of the national table tennis.
This decision has sparked a huge response, and our table tennis stars have taken practical actions to support Liu Guoliang.
Wei Jizhong did not realize everyone's aspirations at the time, and he still insisted that what he said was correct, and even angrily accused Liu Guoliang of inciting these table tennis players to confront the General Administration of Sports.
After Liu Guoliang's resignation, we don't know whether Wei Jizhong was secretly complacent and thought that he had made contributions to China's sports cause.
Wei Jizhong's fans hated it to the point that their teeth itched, because Liu Guoliang's departure directly caused table tennis to enter an unprecedented trough period, which made them very dissatisfied.
Wei Jizhong once again commented on our national table tennis team at this time, he pointed out that the national table tennis team has been stuck in the past achievements and cannot extricate itself, and the purpose of reform is to achieve more brilliant results, so the national table tennis team must wake up and work hard from scratch.
The Table Tennis Association couldn't sit still when they saw the team's performance deteriorate, and they decided not to listen to Wei Jizhong's advice, but planned to rehire Liu Guoliang to lead the team to prepare for the Tokyo Olympics.
Liu Guoliang can be said to have dedicated his life to the cause of table tennis, and he knows not only every one of his students, but also every opponent. With him there, the players' hearts were stabilized and the fans' mood was also calmed.
Everyone's evaluation of Wei Jizhong on the Internet is surprisingly unanimous, mainly because the voices criticizing him account for the majority.
Wei Jizhong once published an article to justify his actions. He said that not perfect saints can make mistakes. Many misunderstandings are caused by verbal gaffes, and I hope netizens can stop dwelling on these issues all the time.
The old man Wei Jizhong is already old, and he has let go of some of the burdens on his body, and he could have enjoyed his old age in peace. However, he still worked hard for China's sports industry for most of his life, and he deserves to be a model of "not in his position, not in his politics".
Moreover, with the continuous development of the times, more and more new sports management theories have emerged, and Xi the learning ability of the older generation may not be able to keep up with this change.
The younger generation of athletes continue to accumulate skills and experience through frequent daily training and actual competitions, and have more and closer exchanges with foreign sports administrators.
We will continue to give full play to our strengths, avoid our shortcomings, and continuously optimize our sports management system in combination with our specific situation.
Young people should have the opportunity to show what they can do, and the older generation should give in at the right time. Do you think that the time has come for the old man Wei Jizhong to retire and rest behind closed doors and give young people a chance?
