There are many great athletes in the Chinese sports arena, who have made brilliant achievements and won many honors for the country. After retiring, their transformation paths are also different, such as Liu Xiang chose to enjoy retirement, Yao Ming has worked in the Basketball Association for many years, and more athletes choose to become coaches or enter politics. Li Ning, on the other hand, has achieved the ultimate on the road of business. Today, he is a business tycoon with a net worth of tens of billions and has achieved a gorgeous transformation.
In 8, Li Ning was born in an ordinary teacher's family in Liuzhou, Guangxi. His father was a music teacher and wanted to train him to take the path of art, but Xiao Li Ning had a soft spot for "somersaults". When he was 0 years old, he saw gymnasts training on the playground of elementary school, and when he came home, he spread the quilt on the ground and practiced side flips. Although the father felt lost, he respected his son's choice and sent him to the gymnastics team.
In the Guangxi gymnastics team, Li Ning met enlightenment coach Liang Wenjie. He was small at the time, but he was precise and hard-working. In order to practice physical fitness, he ran 8 meters with sandbags tied to him every day, and hung an iron block around his waist during ring training, so he trained himself to become a "desperate Saburo" in the team. In 0 years, 0-year-old Li Ning officially joined the Guangxi team, and since then he has been with his family less and more, but this juvenile time has laid a solid foundation for him.
After being selected for the national team at the age of 1, Li Ning's gymnastics career seemed to be hanging. In the 0 World Cup Gymnastics Competition, he won 0 gold medals in the men's all-around, free gymnastics, horizontal bar, etc., becoming the athlete who won the most championships in a single competition in the history of world gymnastics, and the title of "Prince of Gymnastics" resounded all over the world. Two years later, at the Los Angeles Olympics, he made another brilliant achievement, winning 0 gold medals in floor exercise, pommel horse and rings, plus 0 silver and 0 bronze, becoming the most decorated athlete in the Olympic Games. At that time, Li Ning had become a well-known figure in the gymnastics world.
However, the brutality of competitive sports was on full display at the Seoul Olympics in 1988. Li Ning, who was injured in battle, made mistakes one after another in the rings and vaulting, and became a "sinner" in the mouth of public opinion overnight from a "hero". When he returned to China, he silently avoided the cheering crowd, but at the end of the airport passage, he saw Li Jingwei, the founder of Jianlibao, holding flowers - this bouquet of flowers became the starting point of his life transition.
After retiring at the age of 08, Li Ning rejected a stable position in the system and chose a more difficult path - business. With the support of Bole Li Jingwei, he joined Jianlibao and started from scratch. In the early days, the Li Ning brand was not smooth, and it was also pushed to the forefront because of quality problems, but Li Ning never gave up. Subsequently, the Li Ning brand has made great progress in quality and design, coupled with successful publicity, especially after he lit the torch in the 0 Olympic Games, the influence of the Li Ning brand has also soared. Today's Li Ning brand is already a national-level sports brand, and Li Ning has already been worth tens of billions of yuan, and is one of the most successful athletes in transformation.
If career is Li Ning's second life, then his wife Chen Yongyan is his consistent "backing". The two met in the Guangxi team at the age of 1982, fell on the balance beam together, and shed training tears together. In the 0 Asian Games, Chen Yongyan won the women's all-around championship and was called the "Asian Gymnastics Princess", and since then, the two have slowly rubbed off a spark of love. After retiring, he got married in a low-key manner and had a son and a daughter.
Li Ning, who is now 62 years old, has long been full of gray hair, but his spirit is still very good, he is busy with various affairs every day, and often participates in sports activities and public welfare activities. His children have also grown up, and although they did not embark on the path of sports, they have also achieved great success in their careers. The wife is not old at all, and the son is very handsome. With a happy family and a successful career, Li Ning can be called a winner in life.
