When you think of the coach of the national table tennis women's team, who do you think of?
The first thing that comes to everyone's mind is today's Ma Lin, or the once controversial Kong Linghui?
But in fact, before them, there was a coach who had a long reputation.
In Shi Zhihao's eight-year coaching career, he has led the women's team to win various championships many times.
The prestigious "Great Demon King" Zhang Yining, and the "Tyrant" Wang Nan.
It's all from his training.
However, it is such an honorable coach who has been controversial.
01 "strange tricks" are in controversy
As the coach of the national team, Shi Zhihao's table tennis strength is beyond doubt.
not only entered the national team early, but also won numerous awards.
Even he was one of the early "Three Musketeers" of national table tennis.
Since he was a child, Shi Zhihao has loved the sport of table tennis and is very talented.
At the age of 14, he entered the railway table tennis team, and since then he has been improving by leaps and bounds.
Within a few years, he got a ticket to the national team.
Although there are many masters in the national team, Shi Zhihao soon shines here.
Soon won the national singles championship, and was in the limelight for a while.
However, in the next team competition, Shi Zhihao encountered "Waterloo".
Shi Zhihao's strength has always been his strong forehand.
This time, his opponent fiercely targeted his weakness, and so far he lost two points in a row.
made China's hot championship position almost handed over.
So after this competition, Shi Zhihao withdrew from the main lineup.
However, his love for table tennis has not diminished.
And with his own unique style of play, he has coached abroad many times.
Although the days abroad are calm and fulfilling.
But Shi Zhihao's heart still wants to contribute to China's table tennis industry.
Because of this, after receiving the invitation of the national team, Shi Zhihao resolutely returned to his motherland.
With years of rich experience, Shi Zhihao soon began to train the members.
Whether it's a seasoned veteran or a fledgling newcomer.
Their honor is inseparable from the person behind them who is also a teacher and friend.
This result also led him to beat Kong Linghui in 2008 and be selected as the coach of the women's team again.
The audience is also looking forward to the "glorious" coach to create brilliance.
What everyone didn't expect was that this re-election made Shi Zhihao fall into a huge controversy.
02 "Suppress" Guo Yue
During the time when Shi Zhihao was the women's table tennis coach, the most outstanding members were Zhang Yining and Wang Nan.
It can be said that where the two of them are there, the gold medal will not fall into the hands of others.
However, there is another veteran whose performance is also remarkable.
That is Guo Yue.
At the age of 11, he was selected for the national team.
Since then, it has set a new age for athletes to win awards in various competitions.
It's not an exaggeration to say that a genius girl.
Although Guo Yue's luck can be said to be quite bad, he met the "big demon king".
But even under Zhang Yining's "domination", she still won the women's singles championship at the World Table Tennis Championships.
Therefore, after Zhang Yining and Wang Nan retired one after another, many netizens also felt that Shi Zhihao was going to start focusing on cultivating Guo Yue.
After all, Guo Yue's strength is beyond doubt.
However, at the 2010 Moscow World Table Tennis Championships, Shi Zhihao directly gave up letting Guo Yue play.
Instead, they chose "teenagers" Liu Shiwen and Ding Ning as starters.
made Guo Yue and Li Xiaoxia the substitutes for the two of them.
This decision naturally made netizens indignant and upset Guo Yueming.
If you win the gold medal, these public opinions are naturally nothing.
But the game was a huge loss.
directly made the national team lose the record of nine consecutive championships, and more than ten years of hard work were ruined.
The two "young generals" are even more remorseful.
The loss of the game can be said to have caused the entire women's table tennis team to fall into public opinion.
The first to bear the brunt is the coach Shi Zhihao, who made a "faint move".
Because of Guo Yue's character, netizens have also heard of it.
Therefore, they unanimously felt that it was because of "the disagreement between master and apprentice".
may be when Guo Yue contradicted Shi Zhihao, which made him dissatisfied, and then "wore small shoes".
Within a few years, the voices of Guo Yue being "expelled" from the national team emerged one after another.
This made Shi Zhihao almost stand on the "edge of the cliff".
In the face of these public opinions, Shi Zhihao never stood up to explain half a sentence for himself.
It wasn't until years later that he responded to the matter on a talk show.
not only shows that there is no contradiction between him and Guo Yue, but Guo Yue's "expulsion" from him is also nonsense.
It also pointed out the truth of the original competition.
It turned out that the reason for "abandoning" Guo Yue at that time was her mentality.
As a veteran on the "battlefield", Guo Yue did not stabilize his results.
Before the Moscow game at that time, he had already lost several matches in a row.
This has led several coaches to express concern about the situation of sending her on the field.
However, at that time, the two "eldest sisters" retired, and another "veteran" Li Xiaoxia was also disturbed by injuries.
For a while, there was really no one in the team who could get it.
So Shi Zhihao came up with this trick in the spirit of "bringing newcomers".
Unexpectedly, it became a professional "Waterloo".
However, this failure did not dampen Shi Zhihao's determination, and he still emphasized "group development".
Until Shi Zhihao withdrew from the stage of women's table tennis, he never regretted every decision he made.
In his opinion, the most important thing for the national team is to "connect the previous and the next" and not fall into the realm of lack of success.
And his coaching career is a good illustration of that.
However, compared with the controversy at Shi Zhihao's work, his love life has attracted more attention.
03 Cao Yanhua in the first marriage, and Li Nan, a disciple in the second marriage
Shi Zhihao has not only dedicated most of his life to table tennis, but even his two marriages are related to him.
When Shi Zhihao first entered the national team, he met his teammate Cao Yanhua.
And Cao Yanhua's experience is much more legendary than Shi Zhihao.
As the absolute main force of women's table tennis at that time, Cao Yanhua's trophies are countless.
Even compared with the later "legend" Deng Yaping, it is not inferior.
Therefore, she is affectionately called the "Queen of Table Tennis" by many audiences.
Because of injury, she finally left the table tennis she loved.
Soon after, she married her boyfriend Shi Zhihao and settled abroad.
For as long as 8 years, Cao Yanhua has been in a state of returning to the family.
However, this kind of life of husband and child is not what she wants.
On the other hand, Shi Zhihao, even after retiring, is still shining in the field of table tennis.
This made Cao Yanhua's heart for the fire of table tennis never extinguished.
Finally, in 1995, she chose to return to her home country and set up a training club.
It didn't take long for Shi Zhihao to return to this land.
The two of them worked hard together in Shanghai.
Although the work is very busy, it is all for the love in my heart.
Didn't feel tired.
But with the transfer of Shi Zhihao's work location, he and Cao Jinhua began to live separately.
The daily communication between the two is becoming less and less, and the relationship is not as good as before.
The constant quarrels also took away the love between each other.
In the end, he chose to divorce and become friends again.
Shi Zhihao, who was alone, naturally put more energy into his career.
He was also transferred from the local team to the national team as a coach.
It was here that he met his second wife, Li Nan.
Shi Zhihao, who has a stern style, was not liked by the students at first, thinking that he was too domineering.
Li Nan also stayed away from him.
But when Li Nan and her ex-boyfriend Hou Yingchao were "beaten by the head coach".
Shi Zhihao was one of the few people who came to comfort her.
At that time, it was not only the rule that "love is not allowed in the team" was in front of the two.
The biggest reason is that the national team has a tendency of "no successor".
This made coach Cai Zhenhua, who knew that Li Nan was in love, furious.
Directly "sent" both of them to the local team.
Under the pressure of their careers, the two also chose to break up.
After that, Li Nan devoted himself to table tennis and trained very hard.
Later, with excellent results, he returned to the national team.
Who would have thought that she would be planted twice in the same pit.
Because of Shi Zhihao's care all the time, Li Nan is not afraid of this "serious" coach.
The private relationship between the two is also getting better and better, and they are also teachers and friends.
The teammates also noticed the unusual atmosphere between Shi Zhihao and Li Nan.
But because of the 23-year-old age gap between the two, everyone didn't think about romance.
Who would have thought that there would be a thunder on the ground.
The two actually broke through the world and chose to be together.
Li Nan is also well aware of the rule that "no love is allowed in the team", and is afraid of affecting Shi Zhihao's future.
chose to retire voluntarily and gave up table tennis.
Shi Zhihao was also very moved by Li Nan's dedication, and chose to marry him a year later.
Although the wedding banquet was not large, only some relatives and friends were invited.
But it's better to be warm.
Shi Zhihao also secretly vowed: "I want to be good to this girl who gave up her career for the rest of her life."
Although because of the "master-apprentice love", Shi Zhihao's controversy is getting bigger and bigger.
But no amount of gossip has affected the relationship between the two.
Although Shi Zhihao and his ex-wife already had a son before.
However, the two still want to have a child in common.
After Shi Zhihao retired from the national team, he lived a small life of a family of three.
and Li Nan are still in love, and it can be seen that the age gap has not affected them.
Now Shi Zhihaoye also occasionally "goes out of the mountain" to cheer for emerging table tennis players.
Even if he retires, he still works hard for the table tennis career he loves all his life.
epilogue
Shi Zhihao's life can be described as a legend.
From a genius who became famous at a young age, to the object of judgment for the audience.
After retiring from the army, he went abroad to teach, and a few years later returned to the national team in a "new capacity".
The only thing that remains unchanged is his love for table tennis.
Whether it is the rumor of "expelling" Guo Yue, or the controversy of marrying an apprentice for the second time.
All made netizens have mixed reviews for this coach who has made great contributions to the national table tennis field.
But it is undeniable that when it comes to Chinese women's table tennis.
You must be unable to avoid the name Shi Zhihao.
