In the memory of a certain generation, Wang Junxia is an extremely clear image.
Because of her appearance, it means a breakthrough and an encouragement for the history of Chinese track and field.
In track and field, it is difficult for Asians to break through the monopoly of black athletes because of their race, and it is even more difficult to win medals.
As a result, China has been short of gold medals in Olympic track and field events during that time.
Fortunately, China has the "Oriental Divine Deer" - Wang Junxia. She put in a lot of hard work, defeated all opponents at the Atlanta Olympics, and won China's first Olympic gold medal in athletics.
Behind Wang Junxia's achievement of this gold medal is her great efforts.
After retiring, Wang Junxia went through a lot, but she bounced back from her failed relationship and finally found happiness.
So, what did Wang Junxia experience in the past? How is her life now?
1. Parting ways with Ma Jiajun 1994 was a special year for Chinese track and field.
Because before that, China had made amazing achievements in track and field, especially the national women's track and field team, which was almost unstoppable.
This is a remarkable achievement, especially considering that the state of sports in China at the time was relatively weak and athletics was not a sport that was taken seriously.
But unexpectedly, in 1993, under the leadership of Coach Ma, the Chinese women's track and field team broke 66 world records and won many championships.
This team is called Ma Jiajun, and the leader of them is Wang Junxia.
Therefore, before the 1994 Spring Festival Gala, Wang Junxia and Ma Jiajun became a hot topic, and they were paid tribute in Mr. Huang Hong's sketch "Playing Poker".
Before the Spring Festival Gala in 1994, CCTV also arranged 8 minutes for Ma Jiajun to tell his experience.
As the leader of the team, Wang Junxia excitedly recounted the hard training of herself and her teammates, and even held the microphone tightly, unwilling to let go.
It is widely believed that Wang Junxia's expression of excitement is a manifestation of the true feelings of a great athlete.
In fact, this is indeed the embodiment of Wang Junxia's true feelings, but in the expression of this emotion, there is a deeper truth.
In 1994, Wang Junxia joined more than a dozen other teammates in his resignation, but the reason for his resignation was not clearly stated.
One can only vaguely think that this is related to economic disputes, but the truth may be a big surprise.
In 2004, an article titled "Ma Jiajun Investigation" was published, revealing the truth about Wang Junxia and other teammates leaving the team at that time.
It turned out that the coach at that time forced the players to use doping in order to achieve results.
These stimulants have seriously damaged the health of the players.
For them, the game should be fair, and physical injuries should not exist at all.
In order to save herself, Wang Junxia personally wrote a letter to the writer Zhao Yu for help, and at the end of the letter, she and other team members signed it.
It was this letter that made Zhao Yu take the pressure to expose the inside story of doping and save this group of athletes.
It was only at this time that people understood the reason why Wang Junxia was excited on the Spring Festival Gala of 1994, and she almost cried.
Of course, in the sports environment of the time, doping was the norm in various countries, but it was precisely because it was the norm that this group of girls seemed so great.
In fact, after this incident, Wang Junxia was questioned, and many people believed that her results were obtained through cheating.
But no one knows that for a natural athlete, she will perform better without doping.
It all starts with Wang Junxia's childhood.
2. Natural athlete In 1973, Wang Junxia was born in a small village in Jiaohe City, Jilin Province. In those days, as a girl from a peasant family, she had little education.
There is basically only one path in her life, that is, to get married early, have children, and live an ordinary life.
But Wang Junxia has opened up another path with her talent, which is to become an athlete.
In 1998, Wang Junxia represented the school in Dalian Primary and Secondary School Meeting, and in that competition, she showed the so-called "hard work is better than talent".
She easily overtook her teammates and finished first.
In the crowd of onlookers, there was a coach named Wang Shizhong, who almost immediately saw the huge potential of Wang Junxia, so he found Wang Junxia's parents and invited their daughter to become his student.
Under the careful guidance of Wang Shizhong, Wang Junxia's achievements have improved by leaps and bounds and she has become a member of the track and field arena that cannot be ignored.
Soon, Wang Junxia won the gold medal in the 1991 National Games and entered the team of Coach Ma.
Despite the Ma Jiajun scandal and the widespread belief that Wang Junxia will no longer appear, as the saying goes, a natural athlete will emerge again with dazzling results.
After leaving, Wang Junxia returned to her hometown of Northeast China to train at the Liaoning Provincial Institute of Physical Education, coached by Li Weimin, Coach Ma's assistant.
However, due to her lack of experience, Wang Junxia's performance under Li Weimin's guidance was far less than expected.
Therefore, Wang Junxia decided to change coaches, and this time chose Mao Dezhen, the coach of Dalian Sports School.
Although Mao Dezhen was only temporarily serving as Wang Junxia's coach, his training methods have worked amazingly well for her.
In 1996, the Atlanta Olympic trials were about to be held, and winning the gold medal meant qualifying for the Olympic Games, which was a valuable opportunity for Wang Junxia.
In fact, Wang Junxia seized the opportunity and won two gold medals in the 5,000m and 10,000m in the trials, becoming the representative of China.
After getting her ticket, Wang Junxia trained even harder, and she had to prove to the world that she was not a rat, but a real athlete.
On July 28 of the same year, Wang Junxia participated in the women's 5000m race at the Atlanta Olympics, in which she overtook all her opponents like a deer and finally won.
Subsequently, Wang Junxia walked around the field with the five-star red flag, and at that moment, a long-lost smile appeared on her face.
At that Olympics, Wang Junxia won a gold medal and a silver medal, which is very glorious in the history of Chinese athletics.
However, at the peak moment, Wang Junxia chose to retreat bravely.
3. Three marriages after retirement For Wang Junxia, winning the Olympic gold medal was already very satisfying, so in 1997, she chose to retire and marry her lover.
After getting married, Wang Junxia focused her life on her family, but Zhao Yu's "Ma Jiajun Investigation" pushed Wang Junxia back to the forefront.
For Zhao Yu, Wang Junxia is naturally very grateful, but she has just recovered from a game.
For the sake of health, she chose to go to the United States, where she gave birth to her eldest son.
But this happy life did not last long, in 2006, Wang Junxia chose to re-establish friendship with Zhan Yu, and the two chose to divorce.
This marriage hit Wang Junxia very hard, because Zhan Yu was her first love, and the two had experienced a lot, and such a divorce made her feel very painful.
But fortunately, marriage is not all Wang Junxia is. After a period of low points, Wang Junxia started a new life.
During this time, a ** producer named Huang Tianwen appeared, and his pursuit gave Wang Junxia a lot of spiritual strength, so the two chose to get married.
Because Huang Tianwen is a Chinese-American, Wang Junxia followed her husband to the United States after getting married.
While living in the United States, Wang Junxia discovered that she might not know Huang Tianwen.
As a result, contradictions and quarrels appeared in the marriage of the two, and despite having children, this long-term quarrel made Wang Junxia feel exhausted, so the two divorced again.
But compared with the first marriage, Huang Tianwen in the second marriage is obviously more calculating.
Because two years after the divorce, Huang Tianwen deliberately wrote a book called "Oriental Shenlu - My Former Wife Wang Junxia".
In the book, he made all kinds of accusations about Wang Junxia's economic life, claiming that Wang Junxia divorced him because of his extravagance.
However, by that time, Wang Junxia already had a new partner, and her husband Li Huiyang stood firmly by her side.
Accompanied by Li Huiyang, Wang Junxia proved that the accusations in her ex-husband's book were rumors and restored her innocence.
Nowadays, Wang Junxia lives a happy life, she often publishes her latest situation on social **, she also keeps up with fashion trends, and goes shopping in Hanfu with her daughter, looking very happy.
From these, we can see that the current Wang Junxia is living a happy life, and everything in the past has become a cloud of smoke.
ConclusionFor the public, Wang Junxia's identity as a professional athlete is very special.
But for Wang Junxia, this identity is just a reflection of her achievements at a certain point in the past.
She has been indifferent to the troubles of the past, and the good life now is what she really wants to grasp.
**10,000 Fans Incentive Plan With the passage of time, our former "Oriental Divine Deer" has also grown old, but her former heroic appearance is still shining, and we will never forget.
I hope that Wang Junxia can actively enjoy her life, and maybe in the future, we can witness her create more miracles. ）
