Li Yan's love life

Li Yan, compared with China's ill-fated world of ice and snow, her life experience is lucky. At the age of 20, she represented China for the first time in the Winter Olympics in Calgary. She won the gold and bronze medals in the 1 0,000m and 1 0,500m performances at one stroke, and set new world records for 1 0,500m and 1 0,500m.

1992 The Winter Olympics was held in Albertville, France. Among the skiing teams participating in the Winter Olympics, there is a national champion from Dalian named Tang. Li Yan, who is famous in the world of ice and snow, can be said to have known for a long time. So he didn't get on the plane, so he asked his teammates for identification. My partner saw that he was about to become a fan of Li Yan, so he deliberately teased him. I'll identify him for you. What benefits will you give me? Tang said sincerely, "I'll treat you to KFC." "Really?" "Really!" Seeing that Tang looked serious, his friends were a little embarrassed.

This guy is too real to let these guys starve in France. Seeing his lover being teased by his partner, Tang's coach came to "try to be brave" and said rudely, "She is Li Yan!" At that time, Li Yan was walking past the boys and turned around when she heard the coach's words. What can I do for you? In a word, all these boys were amused, but Tang made a big blush. Looking at the bad smile of the ski team boys and Tang's embarrassment, Li Yan seems to have guessed seven or eight points and turned red. He smiled, said "wicked" and ran away. "Tang Xiao, Li Yan can say that you are wicked. When the Northeast dialect is said to be wicked, it becomes 80%! " A player said in a tone of Zhao Benshan. This angered Tang, who smiled and said "You wait" while chasing the players. Two men, one running in front and the other chasing behind, rushed into the short track speed skating team in despair. Coincidentally, the player turned around and bypassed Li Yan, but Tang ran into Li Yan because he didn't have time to stop. Suddenly, the whole waiting hall burst into laughter. Although Tang said "I'm sorry" seven times in a row, the warmth left in their hearts at that moment may be beyond any words.

Many years later, people said that the love between Tang and Li Yan was a collision. Whenever I talk about this, the honest Tang Xiao will scratch his head and say, "In fact, the sparks of the soul collided at that moment!" As soon as the honest Tang said such a thing, Li Yan would laugh and say, "wicked!" " Hearing this, the naughty sister Li Qi said, "That's 80%!" Then, laughter filled the room.

In the Winter Olympics that year, although Li Yan didn't win the gold medal, she unexpectedly gained love. From then on, a young man named Tang walked into Li Yan's heart.

Handmade love handbag soothes his wife's lost heart.

Because the short track speed skating team is training in Beijing, and Tang's Bayi ski team is training in Dalian in summer, Tang, who is lovesick, secretly went to Beijing several times to meet his beloved girl Li Yan. To this end, Tang was also punished by the ski team. But the young man's feelings for Li Yan made Li Yan, a beautiful girl who was bent on her career, move inside. Perhaps it was at that time that Li Yan had a worry in her heart.

So, the filial Li Yan brought Tang back to her northeast hometown Mudanjiang. Tang is also a bitter child, so he is very filial to Li Yan's parents. Almost all the activities at home, big and small, have become Tang's business. Sister Li Qi said happily to everyone: "Sister has found a good husband, and my mother and I have been liberated these days!" " As soon as Li Yan heard her sister's nonsense, she pinched her and said, "What nonsense? I'm not married! Where did your brother-in-law come from? " "Elder sister, you are looking for China Geliang, and you burned high incense!" "Call you outspoken!" Li Yan was so angry that she stood up and chased her sister, while the clever Li Qi ran and said, "Brother-in-law, help!" At that moment, the Li family became an ocean of joy. The smile on Li's face is sweet in Tang's heart.

"Brother-in-law, if you cook like this again, my parents and I will get fat!" Seeing that his lover's family praised his cooking, Tang smiled and said, "As long as you are happy and willing to eat!"

Their love came to fruition. 1995, Tang and Li Yan got married in Dalian. Although there are different opinions about sinar's plans after retirement, and there are many invitations from several top national and domestic sports teams, sinar chose the international finance major of Dongbei University of Finance and Economics one year before her marriage. At that time, Li Yan really wanted to bid farewell to his beloved speed skating rink and learn a subject to lay the foundation for finding a good job in the future.

After graduating from college, Li Yan was assigned to Dalian Local Taxation Bureau as a clerk at the deputy department level. With a comfortable job and a happy family, Li Yan should be satisfied. But after really living this ordinary life, Li Yan suddenly felt a sense of loss. In winter, whenever I see a child skating, or on the TV screen, my former partner is still in the front line of speed skating, she has an indescribable sadness in her heart. Therefore, Tang changed his way to coax her. Whenever he has time, Tang will take Li Yan to the seaside for a walk and fly kites. The ingenious Tang also made many handbags for Li Yan in his spare time, which made his sister who came to Dalian look envious and asked her brother-in-law for a handbag. Don said distressfully, "I made it for your sister." This incident angered Li Qi, who repeatedly scolded her brother-in-law for being "stingy" and "eccentric".

Unforgettable foreign speed skating teaching, left-behind husband "chased" to the United States

At this time, an accidental opportunity changed Li Yan's later life. It turns out that there is a juvenile roller skating team in Dalian, which has been unknown for several years. That summer, there was a national youth roller skating competition, so the Dalian Municipal Sports Commission thought of Olympic champion Li Yan. When the Sports Commission leaders found Li Yan, Li Yan agreed, because she found that she still had concerns about speed skating.

That summer, Li Yan spent a lot of time with the team members. Results Dalian Junior Roller Skating Team won a second place and three third places in the national competition for the first time. Li Yan cried when she saw the cheers of the small team members when they succeeded. At that moment, her deep love for ice and snow broke out completely. ...

1999, Slovak sports delegation visited China. When communicating with China Ice Circle, they expressed the hope that China could send a coach to Slovakia to help them train speed skaters. At this point, China officials thought of Li Yan again. When a long-distance call came to Dalian and asked Li Yan if she would like to teach abroad, she agreed without hesitation.

When Li Yan told her husband Tang the news, the young man hesitated and said, "Li Yan, you have given up a lot for me these years, and it pains me to watch you suffer." Go ahead, this is the career you should choose! I am at home. "

Hearing her husband say such thoughtful words, Li Yan hugged her husband's neck excitedly and said, "Thank you, good husband!" " "Looking at his wife's rare smile in recent years, Tang shed tears of excitement.

In 2000, Li Yan came back after leaving the world of ice and snow for five years. In the past few years, she has coached the Slovak speed skating team, the Austrian national short track speed skating team and the American national short track speed skating team with remarkable achievements. She not only allowed Apollo of the American team to consolidate the dominance of short track speed skating, but also trained a number of promising players such as Katie, and promoted the American short track speed skating women's team to the world-class level. As a result, Li Yan's teaching ability is more and more impressive.

Li Yan went to teach abroad, while Tang became a left-behind man. In order to realize his wish to be with Li Yan at an early date, Tang never relaxed himself and studied English hard during his three years in China. This is a great pain for him as an athlete. At that time, Li Yan could only go home once a year and rarely met. In the days when he was very much in love with his wife, Tang kept telling his homesickness. Once, Li Yan came back, and Tang took Li Yan and his mother out to play. In the car, Tang told Li Yan about his concern for her these days while driving. At some point, Li Qi found that her overworked sister had fallen asleep, while her brother-in-law was still talking. That scene was really touching. Until today, this moving picture seems to have flashed in front of Richie. ...

Later, Tang also came to work in a gas station in the United States, and the two finally ended their separated life. At the same time, he will soon graduate from the sports medicine course, and then he can work as a masseur in the United States with a stable job and income. In July 2004, the crystallization of their love-baby daughter was born.

Beauty is fading, beauty is gone. Li Yan told us with her success that youth can grow old, but the stars are still bright. Let's wish her a smooth career and a happy family! One day in April 2003, while resting at home, Apollo heard a message from his teammates that the American short track speed skating team would hire a woman from China, Li Yan, 37. But Apollo didn't know this China beauty coach at that time.

Apollo thought he was the best athlete, and he asked the coach to take him as the center and focus. Li Yan thinks that she is the coach of the American national team, and the improvement of the team's performance will better highlight her key points. Apollo didn't understand it at first, because American athletes have outstanding personalities and most of their players are self-centered. At first, it was difficult to understand the intention of the new coach. However, in all the news interviews after the Olympic Games, all the athletes of Li Yandai said: They need the help of their teammates to train together.

Once, Apollo questioned Li Yan's training plan. Li Yan's explanation didn't convince Apollo, so Li Yan became stern and asked Apollo to complete his plan. After the training, Yan Li explained to Apollo again that only such a distance and speed can improve your athletic performance. Although Apollo had doubts, in front of the overall situation, "Grandson, this is what moved Li Yan most.

In the training class, Li Yan and Apollo also encountered such a thing. The training class that day was skating ring. When it reaches a certain number of laps, Apollo needs to take the lead in skating, but maybe Apollo was not physically strong that day. He resolutely refused to lead skating. This is related to whether the training plan can be carried out. If every player talks about conditions like Apollo, training will not be possible. So Li Yan said, Apollo, the whole team is waiting for you. If you think this is good, then everyone is waiting for you today. Although Apollo was not convinced, he rushed to the leading position and successfully completed the task given by Li Yan.

A month later, sinar had a physical examination, and the results surprised the American players, and their grades improved rapidly. At this time, Apollo walked up to Li Yan and said shyly, "Coach, it seems that you are right!" "

A year later, Apollo not only consolidated his original sports achievements, but also made great progress in his weak 500-meter race. 500-meter, 1, 000-meter, 1, 500-meter, 3000-meter, 5000-meter relay, "Prince of the Sun" chased the sun crazily.

Li Yan's persistent "strictness" and serious work style and training methods are gradually recognized by the whole team. Li Yan, who coached the American short track speed skating team for one year, was called "crazy China woman" by the team members.

2005 was a bumper year for Apollo. This year, he was invincible and won all six World Cup titles. Won the World Championships1000m gold medal, 3000m gold medal and relay bronze medal. So that the Korean ice and snow world exclaimed that the appearance of Apollo was Hyun-Soo Ahn's greatest sorrow; The appearance of Apollo was once Hyun-Soo Ahn's biggest nemesis, and Apollo became a thorn in the side of Koreans.

hug

Three years' efforts have finally yielded fruitful results. In the 2006 Winter Olympic Games, Apollo made a historic breakthrough in his weak 500-meter race. He broke through the encirclement of Koreans and fought his way out, like a warrior who was the first to cross the finish line of the 500-meter race.

The audience was boiling, and the first reaction of Apollo who won the championship was to rush to the ice rink and hug his coach Yan Li in China. A thousand words turned into a deep kiss, which was printed on Li Yan's forehead. American boy expressed his blessing to China beauty coach with American etiquette.

It should be said that at the Winter Olympics in Turin, sinar fought a very beautiful battle. Not only did she lead Apollo to a gold medal and a bronze medal, but the American men's team also won the bronze medal in the relay race, and the results of the women's team also improved. The progress of the American team surprised the world. In the face of disciple Apollo rushing to the stadium to hug himself warmly after winning the men's 500-meter gold medal, Li Yan said: "This hug is the greatest reward for me, which contains Apollo's gratitude and trust. I really had mixed feelings at the time. "

Go back to China and keep it.

When Apollo knew that Li Yan was going to return to China to teach, he blurted out a crazy woman! "He called me and tried to persuade me not to leave. He also promised me that he and his teammates would help me solve any problems and even help me take care of my daughter. " Li Yan said, "I am deeply moved, but this still can't shake my decision to return to China, because I am from China!" Li Yan said that I was very uncomfortable at the time. I wish there were two me, one to stay in the United States and the other to take China back to China.

Learn from Wang Meng, the "tartar"

Stone gun

In June 2007, the 6th Asian Winter Games was held in Changchun. In the women's 500-meter final of short track speed skating, after Wang Meng won the championship and crossed the finish line, she didn't give Li Yan, the head coach standing on the sidelines, a high five, and they were strangers. After the women's1500m final, Wang Meng, wearing a bronze medal, was surrounded by reporters and stood in front of the live camera of CCTV. "The coach didn't give me any tactics. He asked me,' Do you know how to compete?' So I will apply for my own return to the local team. The training of the national team doesn't suit me. "The original routine post-match interview was full of gunpowder. Wang Meng pointed his finger at Li Yan, the coach who returned to China less than eight months ago.

"You bring out the Olympic champion, and I am also an Olympic champion. I think I am the best, but I didn't get the best attention. " In Wang Meng's view, Li Yan's good intentions are more like her own neglect, which makes her resistance more and more serious. Three months later, Wang Meng, who still couldn't find a solution, impulsively expressed his inner confusion in an interview. For this reason, Wang Meng got the punishment result of "banning from participating in the 2007 World Short Track Speed Skating Championships and World Team Championships".

Li Yan said that she doesn't want Wang Meng to be banned because every competition is a rare opportunity to exercise. Without Wang Meng, China's short track speed skating team won 2 silvers and 2 bronzes at the 2007 World Championships (among which the China women's team won the silver medal at the team world championships). After China's "debut" in the World Championships ended in frustration, Li Yan returned to the United States for a holiday in April.

Reflect on yourself

Although it is a vacation, Li Yan said that she is not relaxed. She seriously reflected on herself. After coaching the China team for one year, what did she do wrong and what did she not do enough? "Why do you want to go back to China? -Contribute to the country; What is the purpose of returning to China? -Reproduce the glory of China short track ... but why? -Explain that I didn't do well and didn't achieve my goal. " Li Yan said that she began to think, "A child comes into contact with strangers, especially this child has high goals and dreams. After I came, she didn't know me or what I could bring her. This suspicion is normal. (Asian Winter Games storm) is a problem when coaches and excellent athletes run in. When I get along with the players, should I be softer, not as tough as before? "

change

Because of Wang Meng's unique sliding posture, her waist is more likely to break down from constant overwork. Li Yan noticed this detail, so in a training, Li Yan deliberately said to Wang Meng in front of more than 20 people in the team: "A player with good explosive power like you doesn't need to keep grinding like this. When you feel that the training intensity is enough, you can stop skating. " Being treated differently by Li Yan made Wang Meng feel particularly proud. I may not want to skate at first, but Li Yan said she really wanted to skate. In order to improve Wang Meng's skating skills and tap Wang Meng's advantages in short-distance events, Li Yan may let Wang Meng practice some details alone. This greatly satisfied Wang Meng's "vanity". He felt that the coach was giving himself a small stove and attaching importance to himself. On the contrary, I am more interested in Wang Meng and practice more actively. While adhering to his professional teaching philosophy, Li Yan often mentions a poem-"Moistening things silently".

Both Wang Meng and Li Yan felt each other's changes. The communication between Wang Meng and Li Yan did not make many words very clear. It is clear that what they discuss may be more about skills and tactics, training and competition, and in the process of discussion, many aspects of thought and life will be extended. Li Yan, on the other hand, has always asked himself to treat every player like that spring rain, "moistening things quietly."

In July 2008, Wang Meng gained a new identity-the "captain" of China's short track speed skating team. The honor of "captain" is not an extra title, and the work to be undertaken every day is also very heavy. Specific to the training twice a day, whether it is winter or summer or thirst, Wang Meng has to stand in the team and lead the team to exercise, but Wang Meng is very serious in every class. What moved sinar even more was that Wang Meng not only paid attention to her own promotion, but also, as the captain, she took the initiative to chat with the small players about tactics and experience. She will tell her teammates when she slips wrong on the court, so she is particularly convincing in the team.

In late September, 2009, the World Cup in China, on September 20th, Wang Meng led all the players to erect a banner opposite the ice rink, which read "Happy birthday coach, you have worked hard". "Everyone says you are a woman of steel. Are you crying? " After returning to the dormitory, Wang Meng said to Li Yan, "Make a wish quickly!" " "You all know my wish!" Li Yan shed tears happily.

pay back

Kowtow and give thanks. The highest tribute in China's traditional etiquette appeared at the venue of the 20 10 Vancouver Winter Olympics. On the evening of February 17, Wang Meng, the defending champion of women's 500-meter short track speed skating, took the lead in crossing the finish line like a whirlwind. In addition to hugging and waving, she knelt down to the coach's seat and knocked her head twice on the ice. Wang Meng said: "The first one is dedicated to the coach, because she taught me how to skate 500 meters. Just like tonight! " Li Yan blushed and smiled and replied, "That's why I want lucky money. I know that she is thanking me, and I am very pleased. " From the discord a few years ago, to the growing trust, and then to fighting side by side like mother and daughter, as coach Li Yan said, "Tonight we realized our Olympic dream."

On the evening of February 26th, 2065438+00, Wang Meng won the women's 1: 29: 2 13 in pacific coliseum. China's short track speed skating team led by Li Yan swept all four gold medals in women's events in an unprecedented way. The ending is perfect. Holding three gold medals, Wang Meng called Li Yan "a woman who changed the history of short track speed skating in China." On August 9th, 2065438+0/KLOC-0, China's short track speed skating team has resumed training, and Wang Meng, the party involved in the "Fighting Gate", has cancelled his personal press conference. On August 4th, Wang Meng was announced to be expelled from the national team. She immediately released Weibo, saying that she would hold a personal press conference to explain the facts, but five days later, the personal press conference has not yet been held. Zhao Yinggang, director of the Winter Sports Management Center of the State Sports General Administration, confirmed that "Wang Meng will not hold a press conference.

Later, the leaders of the Winter Management Center and Wang Meng's parents communicated with her many times. "We have been in contact with Wang Meng, and the local sports bureau has done a lot of work. The exchanges between the two sides are relatively smooth, and Wang Meng has a clear attitude and will not hold a press conference. " Zhao Yinggang said.

In the "Fighting Gate" incident, on the night of being expelled, Wang Meng once left a malicious word to Li Yan, the head coach of the short track speed skating team. "This is the last time I call you coach. Many things started with you, but you always chose silence. I'm disappointed. From now on, I want to draw a line with you. " After that, the relationship between them gradually eased. Wang Meng sent a short message to Li Yan, "Teacher, I saw your interview, thank you." Sun, another player, also sent a text message, "Stepmother, you won't bear a grudge against your child, will you?" ; At present, Wang is no longer the leader of the short track speed skating team. 20 12 10 Wang Meng re-entered the national team.
