Lang Ping's childhood was not smooth, her father was a soldier and her mother was a doctor, they were both busy and did not have much time to take care of her.

She is also not tall, only 164 meters, which does not meet the standards of a volleyball player. However, she has a strong heart and she has loved sports since she was a child, especially volleyball. She often plays volleyball with the children in her neighborhood, not afraid of getting injured or losing, just to enjoy the fun of sports.

Lang Ping's volleyball talent was soon discovered, and she entered the Beijing Junior Sports School at the age of 11 and began professional volleyball training.

Her coach is the famous volleyball star Chen Zhiping, who is very strict with Lang Ping, requiring her to get up at 5 o'clock in the morning every day, run, do gymnastics, practice skills, and do not rest until 9 o'clock in the evening.

Although Lang Ping is bitter, she never complains, she uses her sweat and hard work in exchange for progress and achievements. She was selected for the Beijing women's volleyball team at the age of 14 and the Chinese women's volleyball team at the age of 16 and became the main attacker of the national team.

In the 1984 Olympic finals, in order to smash the ball, despite her knee injury, she jumped up and smashed the ball into the opponent's court, helping the Chinese women's volleyball team win the gold medal.

However, the jump also completely ruined her knee, and she said goodbye to her career as an athlete and became a coach. She began coaching the Chinese women's volleyball team in 1988 and led them to the second and third places in the 1995 World Cup and 1996 Olympic Games.

She left the Chinese women's volleyball team in 1998 and coached the Italian women's volleyball team, the Japanese women's volleyball team and the American women's volleyball team, all of which achieved good results.

She returned to the Chinese women's volleyball team in 2013 and led them to win the championship again in the 2015 and 2016 World Cups and Olympic Games, creating a new glory for the Chinese women's volleyball team. She is the only person to have won an Olympic gold medal as both an athlete and a coach, and her coaching experience is the most enriching and successful in the world of volleyball.

Lang Ping's career is a legend of Chinese volleyball, she has won honor and respect for the Chinese women's volleyball team with her strength and wisdom, set an example and benchmark for Chinese volleyball, and made great contributions to Chinese sports. She is the pride of Chinese volleyball, the pride of Chinese, and the pride of world volleyball.

Lang Ping's emotional experience has not been smooth, she has experienced two failed marriages, and she has also made a difficult choice between career and relationship. Her love life is full of twists and turns and pain, but she has never given up her pursuit and belief in love.

Lang Ping's first marriage was in 1985, when she married her teammate, friend and lover Chen Zhiwei. Chen Zhiwei was the main attacker of the Chinese men's volleyball team, they were the golden boy and girl at that time, and were known as the "fairy couple in the volleyball world".

Their marriage has been blessed and followed by the people of the whole country, and they have been happy before. However, due to their professional reasons, they are often separated from each other, and they don't have much time to get along and communicate, and the relationship gradually cracks.

They divorced in 1990, ending their five-year marriage. Their divorce shocked the nation and left them all sad. They don't have children, they don't hate each other, they just feel that they are not suitable to be husband and wife, and can only be friends.
