Weightlifting joke

1990, at the scene of the 1 Asian Games 1 100 kg weightlifting competition, I saw a strong China athlete wearing a red shirt, walking on the weightlifting platform with his head held high under the guidance of his coach.

I saw his shoulders sink, his hands grabbed the barbell conveniently, took a deep breath, and steadily lifted the barbell with a "hi". The coach in the audience was so excited that tears came to his eyes. He knew that the snatch had broken the Asian record and the Asian Games champion had been won.

This 20-year-old soldier named Cai Li is definitely his highlight moment. Flowers, applause and honors followed, and he was also named "Asia's first lux" by the public.

However, this "Asia's No.1 Lux", who has won more than 40 national championships and 20 Asian championships, never expected that his fortune would turn sharply under the high light, so that he went to the grocery store to buy things on credit. When he died at the age of 33, he had only 300 yuan.

This "Asia's No.1 Lux" is talent.

Cai Li was born in Changtu, Liaoning from 65438 to 0970. Li's arrival added a joy to this poor family. Cai Li Jr. has a good appetite. He is chubby and cute. Seeing that he was stronger than other children of his age, his father named him "genius".

No one thought that Cai Li had an indissoluble bond with "Li" in this life. He was famous for Lee and died young.

Due to poor family conditions and poor academic performance, Cai Li dropped out of junior high school without finishing school. People who drop out of school have no life skills and can only live a life with their parents facing the black soil and the sky. Fortunately, he was strong and gave birth to a strong embryo at an early age. With him in charge of farm work at home, parents suddenly feel a lot less burden on their shoulders.

One day, Cai Li was seen by a stranger while carrying water to do farm work. He found that Cai Li looked a little immature, but her shoulders were wide and her back was wide, her arms were big and her waist was round. Someone stepped forward and talked with Cai Li.

It turns out that this stranger is a weightlifting coach in a sports school. As he didn't recruit suitable students in recent years, he found an opportunity to visit and investigate in the countryside to see if he could find some good seeds.

In the eyes of this coach, he is young, well educated, strong and talented. In today's words, it's god's reward for food, and it's perfect to practice weightlifting.

After some communication with Cai Li's parents, Cai Li was taken to the junior sports school by the coach, while carrying out weight lifting training and studying culture classes.

Under the guidance and good foundation of the teacher, the talented weightlifting achievements have made rapid progress, and the performance among a group of teammates is very eye-catching. 1983, 13-year-old Cai Li entered Liaoning Sports Vocational and Technical College and began professional and systematic weightlifting training.

Weightlifting training is always boring, and that kind of hardship and loneliness is unimaginable to ordinary people. However, as a farmer, he always does everyone's actions according to the coach's every request. He firmly believes that as long as he works hard and trains hard, he will definitely change his destiny.

1985, 15-year-old Cai Li, representing Liaoning in the weightlifting competition of the National Youth Games. He won the weightlifting championship of 1 10 kg on his first appearance. /kloc-The news that 0/5-year-old talents have shocked many veterans has spread in many news media, and everyone knows 15-year-old "China's first lux".

Cai Li, who won the gold medal in the National Youth Games, entered the fast lane of her career and basically never lost in weightlifting. From 1985 to 1993, Cai Licheng became a champion professional player in various competitions. People exclaim that other weightlifters can directly compete for silver medals in talented competitions, because gold medals are always talented.

At the most glorious moment, he won the Asian Games weightlifting champion, and even broke the Asian weightlifting record 1 100 kg, which had been silent for many years. Therefore, he is called "the first in Asia".

Happiness is the refuge of misfortune.

When Cai Li kept winning the championship and breaking the record, the bitter fruit of his life had planted seeds and took root.

Due to years of intensive training and eating high-fat and high-calorie food to increase his physical strength, his physical function is weakening and he can't adapt to weightlifting events.

Seeing that he could not reproduce the glory on the field, he chose 1997 to retire.

Because I haven't studied many cultural classes, I'm not good at communicating with people, and I'm too fat, it's difficult for me to find a suitable job.

There is a saying that the sports department recommended him to work in the Transportation Bureau, but he fell asleep during the interview and made a big joke.

An excellent mobilization who won glory for the country could not even find a job, which made Cai Li feel wronged and helpless Finally, after coordination by many parties, he was organized to be a doorman in the Provincial Institute of Physical Education.

After settling down, I was introduced to marry a colleague who is also a national weightlifting champion. His lover is confessing? Working in the company, although the salary of the young couple is not high, there is still a trace of warmth in the plain life.

Good days are always so short. Both husband and wife are weightlifters. Due to long-term training, they both have serious training injuries, are gifted with obesity and suffer from sleep apnea syndrome. Their lover also suffers from myocarditis, cervical spondylosis and severe hydrocele of meniscus. With the birth of her daughter, the family's economic pressure is like a mountain, and the two national champions are overwhelmed.

It is more difficult to see a doctor and eat, and to raise a daughter.

Asian weightlifting champions can't lift the burden of their families, and real life is so ironic.

I know I'm sick, but I can't get medical care because I have no money.

According to Cai Li's wife, the breathing equipment needed to treat sleep apnea at that time cost thousands of yuan in just one hour. Poor Cai Li can't afford medical expenses, so she can only let her condition get worse.

On the evening of May 30, 2003, Cai Li's wife suddenly woke up in the middle of the night and found that Cai Li's chest fluctuated violently. The pain of lack of oxygen turned Cai Li's sleeping face blue. The wife hurriedly took out the small ventilator presented by the Institute of Physical Education and put it on her husband, thus alleviating his pain.

The next morning, his wife asked Cai Li to go to the hospital for examination. Only then did she feel the shriveled pocket and said nothing. In the afternoon, I felt that I couldn't hold on. I took a taxi to the hospital at 2 o'clock.

Unexpectedly, it was a long time ago. A few hours later, Cai Li died of sleep apnea syndrome caused by obesity.

It is said that he only took 120 yuan to the hospital, of which his mother gave it to 20 yuan and his father gave it to 100 yuan!

This is also the first time he took a taxi to the hospital. Usually he only rides a bike. .......

And his wife said that on the day of his death, because of the money for medical treatment, there was only 300 yuan at home to scrape together!

A generation of weightlifters died of poverty, and the tragedy made people cry.

Cai Li was born in Mu, was good at weightlifting, and was famous all over Asia, but died young due to poverty and illness.

Some netizens commented that his tragic death was actually doomed when he was young.

Because he was taught "how to lift heavier things" from an early age, but he was not taught "how to earn money to survive in society"

After Cai Li died, his daughter was deeply troubled in her study and life because she inherited her parents' obesity.

In 20 17, Cai Li's wife and daughter were also seriously ill, and their lives were almost desperate, relying on the support of relevant departments and funds. I believe it. Mother and daughter have borrowed foreign debt to treat diseases, and now they have owed as much as 654.38+0.5 million. In July this year, Cai Li's daughter also explained the situation online and raised money. Some well-intentioned people have given their love, which can be regarded as alleviating the urgent need.

Talk about ancient and modern China and foreign countries, and talk about the shortcomings of parents.

People are cold and warm, and the world is cold.

Your support is my motivation to write, and I am willing to continue to contribute better works for you.
