Because both parents had some sports experiences when they were young, Li Meng's figure developed very fast when he was a child, thanks to his parents' excellent genes.

Parents also want Li Meng to finish their unfinished sports career, so when Li Meng was 4 years old, her father sent her to a local amateur children's sports school to learn swimming.

However, after practicing swimming for about a year, Meng Li always felt ear pain. When she was injured for the first time, her parents didn't care, but as Li Meng was injured more and more, her parents took Li Meng to see a doctor.

After the examination, the doctor told Li Meng's parents that Li Meng's ears often hurt because Li Meng's ears often got water, which led to inflammation.

After learning that Meng Li was practicing swimming, the doctor advised Li Meng's parents to stop their children from practicing swimming.

Considering Li Meng's health, parents have no choice but to ask Li Meng to give up practicing swimming, but where is Li Meng's physical condition? Parents think it's a pity to give up sports completely.

Later, by chance, Li Meng's mother learned that a friend's child was practicing basketball, so she thought of taking Li Meng to a basketball class to try.

But when the coach saw Meng Li, who was only 5 years old, he refused directly, and told Li Meng and his parents that they didn't accept such young children here, and the youngest was 7 years old.

Because the younger the child, the harder it is to take care of it. Sports training requires children to be obedient, so the coach doesn't want to take Li Meng, who is only 5 years old.

However, Li Meng's mother did not give up easily. Instead, she told the coach that she couldn't let Li Meng play, just practice next to her.

So Li Meng was admitted to the training class by the coach. At first, she really just practiced dribbling and catching the ball, but Li Meng was not competitive since she was a child.

So, when other players were training, Li Meng followed suit. Slowly, the coach accepted that there was such a 5-year-old girl in his class.

Li Meng's first mentor was also a famous person in the basketball field in China. His name is Wang, the elder brother of the current Olympic women's basketball coach and the father of the former Shenyang women's basketball youth team coach.

It is very famous in the field of youth basketball training in Liaoning and has a good reputation. Many people in Liaoning basketball field will send their children to Wang for enlightenment.

Wang didn't intend to accept it, but because of his mother's guarantee and his own efforts, Wang really began to accept it and was willing to cultivate it.

There are many people who embark on the road of sports, but few people can persist until the end. A large number of people are discouraged by boring basic skills training and fierce physical confrontation.

However, Li Meng fell in love with basketball soon after he came into contact with it, and he also showed his unique talent in basketball.

After school in kindergarten, other children look forward to playing with their friends, going home to watch TV, playing with toys and so on.

But what Li Meng is most looking forward to is following the coach to the basketball training class. Even for a long time, she could only practice dribbling on the sidelines and cheer for the big players, but Li Meng still enjoyed it.

Sometimes my parents are busy at work and have many social activities, so they can't consider sending Li Meng to the basketball training class, but Meng Li will always beg my mother to say, "Mom, please send me to eat with others."

Once or twice, when my mother saw that Li Meng was so keen on basketball, she managed to find time to send Li Meng to basketball training class every day.

Sometimes, when she is not in class, Li Meng will think that her mother "suggests" where there is basketball training. In a word, her love for basketball moved her parents and coaches.

During my kindergarten days in Li Meng, I kept my hands on the ball almost every day. I practiced for three days in winter and three days in summer, which was very hard.

Winter in Shenyang is extremely cold. Li Meng and his mother basically go to basketball training class by bike. The children used to be white and tender, but Li Meng's hands were always frozen like carrots.

Every time my mother sees Li Meng's hand, she is distressed, but she can't douse the children's enthusiasm. She can only support Li Meng in action and material.

Excellent talent, almost persistent love for basketball, extraordinary persistence and perseverance, let your potential be shown to Wang bit by bit.

With years of youth training experience, Wang foresaw great progress in the future. He even thinks that his sister Wang Guizhi and his daughter Wang Hong are inferior to Li Meng.

Thinking that he should not delay Li Meng, he began to really know Li Meng, regarded her as his family, and secretly vowed to cultivate her.

From then on, when there was no training class, Wang took it for training for free. In the open-air stadium in Shenyang, one old man and one young man are often seen.

Even though the cold in winter makes the concrete floor harder, the master and apprentice still insist on training as always.

Meng Li has a strong desire to win. Once, when she tried to steal the coach Wang, she accidentally fell to the ground and broke her finger directly. Wang put her hand on the table and straightened it hard, then fixed the ice cream stick she had eaten as a splint and hit it again.

Moreover, Li Meng's desire to win is not only in the competition with female players. In the training class, she cried as soon as she lost points with boys, and she never refused. Sometimes after class, Li Meng still won't let others go, and he has to win it back.

With Wang's help and her own efforts, she quickly stood out from her peers.

When Li Meng was 8 years old, she represented Shenyang in the national "Seedling Cup" competition and competed with many older children. Although she is young, she just can't stop her.

At that time, Li Meng was in that primary school, which could win the regional championship, so when he was promoted to junior high school, many schools were vying for the Li Meng.

But just as Li Meng was gradually becoming famous, her mother found that her cancer was at an advanced stage. At first, her parents had the operation without telling Li Meng, but she couldn't hide the next chemotherapy, because with the beginning of chemotherapy, Li Meng's mother almost lost her hair, and she weighed only 80 pounds.

Faced with this situation, Li Meng took the initiative to take care of his mother, because his father had to work to earn money to see his mother.

At that time, Li Meng looked at her seriously ill mother and had no intention of training at all, but her mother knew that her daughter had a super talent in basketball, and she didn't want her daughter to "regret for life" because of herself.

So, while fighting the disease, she encouraged her daughter to continue practicing basketball. After the operation, she accompanied Li Meng to watch the game, without taking out stitches, and without affecting her daughter's future for her own reasons.

When Li Meng/Kloc-0 was 0/0 years old, her parents found that a sports school in Shanghai was enrolling students, so they simply cleaned up and took Li Meng to Shanghai.

At that time, Li Meng was taller than his peers, but he was not exaggerating, so the coach didn't feel anything special when he first saw Meng Li.

Let Li Meng warm up and practice shooting, and found that Li Meng's basic skills were not bad, so he left Li Meng.

In this way, Meng Li's family came to Shanghai from the cold northeast, Li Meng's parents got a job driving a bus, and Li Meng's mother became a full-time mother, accompanying Li Meng to train.

After training in Shanghai for about a year, Meng Li, aged 1 1, became a professional basketball player and began to earn money.

Because he started practicing basketball when he was very young, and his mother was still seriously ill, Li Meng was very sensible from an early age. After receiving his salary, he never squandered it, but gave it directly to his mother to supplement his family.

This year, Li Meng was also selected for the China Youth Women's Basketball Team. The head coach of this young women's basketball team is the sister of Wang, our first coach. I heard from my brother that Li Meng is an excellent Wang Guizhi, and I am looking forward to Li Meng's performance.

After Li Meng was officially included in the national youth basketball team, Wang Guizhi had high hopes for Li Meng. She hopes that one day Li Meng can raise the flag of China women's basketball team.

Li Meng's own performance is also worthy of the coach's expectation. In the 2009 U 16 Asian Youth Basketball Championship, Meng Li, who was only 14 years old, became the scoring champion of the event with an average score of 19.3 points per game, leading the team to win the championship strongly, showing a level far exceeding that of her peers.

In the 20 10 U 17 Women's Basketball World Youth Championship, Meng Li averaged 15.4 points, 6.2 rebounds and 4.0 assists and 2 1 3-pointers, ranking first among the players.

With Li Meng's outstanding performance, the China Youth Women's Basketball Team won the third place in the World Youth Championship, tying the best result of the National Youth Women's Basketball Team in the world competition.

At the same time, Li Meng also won the "MVP" of this World Youth Championship, which is the first player in the history of basketball in China to win the "MVP" of the World Series.

After this battle, Li Meng became famous in World War I, and many NCAA teams extended olive branches to her, many of whom were willing to offer full scholarships, but in the end, Li Meng did not make it for various reasons.

If Li Meng had been able to go to the United States for further study, maybe she would have achieved much more now.

On March 20 1 1, Meng Li went to the women's basketball youth league with the Bush women's basketball youth team. Li Meng, who just won the MVP of the World Youth Championship, is the absolute core of the team and the number one enemy in the eyes of opponents.

It was this fierce competition that caused Li Meng to break the anterior cruciate ligament of his right knee shortly after the start of the game. This kind of injury is very serious. It can't be said that he ended his basketball career, but his future will definitely be greatly affected.

/kloc-Li Meng, 0/6 years old, didn't give up. Her family sold the house directly and gave her rehabilitation treatment, but some things don't require hard work.

Li Meng's injury was incurable for a long time, and she was misdiagnosed by quacks. She came back early after five months' rest, but who knows that Li Meng was injured once after she came back without finishing a game.

This time it was in the same position, the same injury, but the first time it was in the right leg, and this time it was the rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament of the left leg (maybe the left leg was not taken care of enough when it was injured for the first time).

Meng Li wanted to persist when she was injured for the first time, but another injury completely destroyed her psychological defense. She doesn't want to bear the terrible pain any more, and she doesn't want her family to continue to pay for her.

So she told her mother that she wanted to go to school, but she knew her daughter's mother very well, knew her daughter's feelings about basketball, and knew how painful it would be for her to give up basketball.

Therefore, Li Meng's parents are reluctant to let their daughter give up basketball even if the family is already stretched. Instead, they will continue to take them for treatment and let their mentor Wang also persuade them.

Persuaded by his parents and teachers, Li Meng finally agreed to receive treatment and rekindled his love for basketball. The second recovery time is faster than the first.

In the 20 13 World Youth Women's Basketball Championship, Li Meng led the team to win the fifth place. 20 13 national games, Li Meng, who played on behalf of Bayi youth women's basketball team, scored 47 points against Shandong women's basketball team.

The familiar Li Meng finally came back!

On 20 13, Meng Li participated in the WCBA League for the first time. It was also in this year that she was selected for the national team.

After that, Li Meng gradually grew into the absolute main force of the China women's basketball team. Because her idol is NBA superstar lebron james and Li Meng has a relatively strong figure, many fans also call Li Meng "LeBron Dream".

Although 18 was selected for the national team, Li Meng didn't have any presence in the national team in those years, but he was a killer on the WCBA field.

That's because the head coach of China women's basketball team at that time was Australian tom maher, who valued Shao Ting and Wu Di more, so Li Meng was not taken seriously, and even failed to enter the women's basketball 12 list several times.

However, Li Meng didn't tell his family, but trained harder. It was not until Xu Limin became the head coach of China women's basketball team that Li Meng's position in the national team stabilized.

Slowly, Li Meng's position in the national women's basketball team is second only to Shao Ting's, and even surpassed Shao Ting's in some aspects, and with more and more attention paid to the women's basketball team, Li Meng's popularity is also very high.

In a match between China women's basketball team and Korean women's basketball team, Li Meng took off her wet coat at halftime and changed on the sidelines.

Although there is nothing wrong with Li Meng wearing a sports bra inside, this behavior still surprises many fans. Of course, after the surprise, I prefer her eclectic personality.

In the past Tokyo Olympic Games, although the China women's basketball team failed to reach the semi-finals, Li Meng's performance was still outstanding, which also made fans expect too much from the China women's basketball team.

Although Li Meng is now 26 years old, according to her physical condition, she is still at the peak of her career. I believe that at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, she and the China women's basketball team will bring you more surprises!
