Liu Xiang is universally recognized as the Olympic champion. He is really something!
He set a world record and won the first 1 10 hurdles gold medal for China. Created an immortal history for the Chinese nation. Your lithe figure in the Olympic Games left a deep influence on people all over the world. The name Liu Xiang will undoubtedly become a symbol with special significance, just like Yang Liwei in 2003. Track and field trapeze really made China track and field, Asians and yellow race fly on the track of Olympic sprint. Although the name of the world record of12second 9 1 is still the name of colin jackson, there is no doubt that one day, the name of the world record will be rewritten as one.
And in the history of track and field, Asians can't make it to the quarter-finals, but you have changed this history. Although it has always been the goal pursued by everyone and the focus of the world's attention, Liu Xiang's face is still as humble and easy-going as before he came to Athens.
Liu Xiang is an excellent athlete. He changed the history of China. He kept China from being looked down upon. Even Asians entered the quarter-finals, winning glory for China. Although he has become the focus of the world, he is still modest. As the saying goes, "Modesty makes people progress, while pride makes people lag behind." I believe that he will achieve better results and win glory for his country, so we should also learn from him.
In 2000, he won the fourth place in the 8th World Youth Athletics Championships. 200 1, Osaka, Japan, the first in the East Asian Games and the first in the World University Games. In 2002, the World Indoor Athletics Grand Prix tied the Asian record of 7.55 seconds in the 60m hurdles, and the IAAF Super Grand Prix in Lausanne, Switzerland, broke the world youth record of 1 12, which had been maintained for 24 years, and won the men's1/kloc-0 hurdles in the Asian Championships and the men's 10 hurdles in the Asian Games. In 2003, he won the bronze medal in the men's 60-meter hurdles in the World Indoor Athletics Championships. In 2004, he won the silver medal in the men's 60-meter hurdles in the World Indoor Athletics Championships. In the 2004 Athens Olympic Games, he won the gold medal in the men's 1 1 meter hurdles. The world record of11was held by the British star Jackson with the score of12.91. In 2005, he was the runner-up of the World Athletics Championships. In 2006, the men's 1 10 meter hurdles in the IAAF Super Grand Prix in Lausanne, Switzerland, broke the world record with 12.88 seconds.
His achievements are not small! Liu Xiang found this gift in an elementary school track and field competition. From then on, he began to focus on track and field, and now he has become a world champion. Although I said it in a few words, he must have experienced many difficulties and setbacks for a long time since he was a child. A successful person has a painful experience behind him. Liu Xiang's success shows that he has strong willpower to resist setbacks. So now he can have these achievements and become a world-famous celebrity.
You said you wanted to change people's minds. Don't think that China or Asians are inferior to Europe and America in short-distance events. We will do well through training. In the next time, you will continue to cooperate with your coach, and you will tell the world: "Asia has me, and China has me."
This sentence will always float in my mind, let me understand: to do anything, we must have certain goals and confidence, and then we can achieve it. Only in this way will the door of victory open to you.
I believe that in my country, we are no worse than others. As long as you work hard, iron can also be ground into embroidery needles. China is very big and has a lot of talents.
