Behind every big figure who is admired by many stars, there is a harsh life hidden. This sentence could not be more appropriate for some champion coaches in Chinese sports. After all, which important figures have left the most profound thoughts on life for the Chinese people? Now let us travel through the tunnel of time and take a look at the famous coaches in the Chinese sports world who have been criticized and reviled due to various scandals in the past forty years. I believe that the public’s eyes are sharp, and everyone will give a fair and objective assessment of their merits and demerits. evaluation.
One: Chen Yunpeng, a native of Shantou, Guangdong, is the leader in the rise of Chinese swimming.
As the head coach of the Chinese swimming team for 15 years (1981-1995), Chen Yunpeng can be said to be the head of the rapid rise of Chinese swimming in the 1980s. In the history of Chinese swimming He left a lasting mark. The biggest controversy during his coaching period was the introduction of Klaus, the former East German coach who started his career with doping. Under their careful training, Chinese swimming quickly became the dominant player in the swimming world that can compete with the United States, creating an unrepeatable event in the history of Chinese swimming. the heyday of the dynasty. At the 1993 World Championships in Rome, the Chinese women's swimming team set off a gold-winning frenzy that shocked the world, including 12 of the 13 gold medals overall. The glory of Chinese swimming reached a historical peak.
In October of the same year, at the Asian Games in Hiroshima, Japan, the Chinese swimming team was exposed to collective doping. Seven people were found to have taken nandrolone steroids, and all 12 gold medals were recovered. This The incident was described by Western media as "the biggest doping scandal in modern sports history." As the helmsman, Chen Yunpeng is undoubtedly the first behind-the-scenes participant. Since then, Chinese swimming has completely fallen off the altar. 16 years have passed, and the shadow of the Hiroshima Asian Games still deeply casts its shadow over the Chinese swimming pool. From this point of view, Chen Yunpeng has an unshirkable obligation.
Two: Ma Junren, a native of Liaoyang, Liaoning Province, is the "devil coach" who leads Chinese women's middle-distance running to shock the world.
In the early 1990s, the devilish long-distance running coach Ma Junren, who was famous for his outspoken words, was a very popular figure in the Chinese sports world. He personally trained Wang Junxia, ??Qu Yunxia, ??Liu A large number of world champions such as Dong Bo and Dong Bo have written the most glorious chapter in the history of Chinese track and field. But as time went by, a series of negative news about him was made public by the media: personally injecting doping for athletes, withholding bonuses, corporal punishment and humiliation, hiring underworld thugs to threaten others, etc. Scandals made his image plummet and threaten him. The world-shaking Ma Jiajun quickly collapsed within a few years. It was not until 2000 that those unbearable things were fully disclosed. The IAAF was suffering from the expiration of the legal validity period, and the pursuit of the miraculous record created by him and the Chinese women's long-distance running ended in nothing.
Three: Wang Dexian, a native of Jixi, Heilongjiang, is a former famous coach of the Chinese women’s marathon team.
Speaking of Wang Dexian, a big man from Northeast China, anyone familiar with the history of Chinese track and field knows that he is the successor of Ma Junren. He not only inherited Ma Junren’s excellent professionalism, but also inherited the old Ma’s arbitrary and arbitrary style. He has a domineering style and is famous for his rigorous training. Many famous long-distance running stars twenty years ago, such as Bai Xue, Ai Dongmei, Xing Huina, and Sun Yingjie, all came from his disciples. Around 2000, the scandal of withholding athletes' incomes that shocked the sports world was revealed, pushing him to the forefront of Chinese sports. A series of scandals about him, such as setting up lynchings to beat others and stealing incomes, all surfaced. In the end, he became a self-reliant champion coach. He was severely punished by being banned from religion for life, and the ending of his life was very sad.
Four: Zhou Ming, a master’s student at Beijing University of Physical Education and former head coach of the Chinese swimming team.
The Hiroshima Asian Games incident caused great damage to the reputation of Chinese swimming. In the unfavorable situation of Chinese swimming being embattled on all sides, Zhou Ming, the youngest marshal in the history of Chinese swimming and a Confucian general with a master's degree from Beijing University of Physical Education Successor Chen Yunpeng took office. It is extremely regrettable that the new boss, who personally participated in the Hiroshima Asian Games doping incident, did not learn from experience and still condoned and supported many Chinese swimmers taking drugs, including world record creator Yuan Yuan and male athletes. Xiong Guoming and Wang Wei once again failed the urine test and ended up in the urine bottle. As the head coach of the Chinese swimming team, Zhou Ming cannot escape the blame. Western media called him the "King of Chinese Swimming Drugs." This time he was not lucky enough to escape. , he and Xiong Guoming were punished by life-long bans from FINA.
Five: Ma Wenhui, a native of Caoxian County, Shandong Province, is known as the "Godfather of Chinese Weightlifting".
As the former head coach of the Chinese women’s weightlifting team, Ma Wenhui has single-handedly trained Liu Chunhong, Tang Gonghong and other world champions from Shandong. He also led the four Chinese women’s weightlifters to create the astonishing spectacle of all winning the Beijing Olympics. , is hailed by the world weightlifting community as "the harvester of weightlifting gold medals" and "the magician who invented dreams." But his "brilliance" also fulfills a famous saying: you will have to pay it back sooner or later.
Eleven years later, in 2019, the International Anti-Doping Center announced after investigation that three of his disciples, Liu Chunhong, Cao Lei, and Chen Xiexia, had taken doping. Not only were their Olympic gold medals withdrawn, but they also faced lifetime bans and additional testing fees. Severe punishment, this incident that humiliated Chinese weightlifting has also become the largest number of people implicated in the history of the Chinese Olympic Games, and Ma Wenhui, the head coach of three Olympic champions, is undoubtedly the initiator of this tragedy.
Summary:
The above five coaches have all made great contributions to the take-off of China's sports industry, and have shed blood and sweat for the elation of Chinese sports. They have made historical contributions. Their names should always be recorded on the book. On the other hand, it should also be noted that due to the influence of historical objective reasons, the Chinese people's gold-medalism and their own greed for fame and fortune also forced them to use unconventional means to improve the competition results of athletes. This This is also the basic reason why they later became victims of gold-only theory. I believe that with the healthy development of Chinese sports, such tragedies of grabbing gold medals by any means will become less and less.
Veterans who like sports, what do you think of what the above five gold medal coaches have done? Welcome everyone to participate in the discussion!
