preface
In the diving training hall in Zhanjiang, Guangdong, a young figure attracted everyone's attention. His movements are clean and clean, with little to no splash when entering the water, which is reminiscent of another diving star. Who is this teenager who is called "talented" by his coach?
What does he have to do with the Olympic champion? Let's unravel the mystery of this diving star full of potential.
Influenced by my sister to start diving
The early morning sun spilled into the diving training hall of Guangdong Zhanjiang Sports School, and the water surface was sparkling. Among them, there is a young man named Quan Jinpeng who is very attention-grabbing, and his sister is Quan Hongchan.
Quan Hongchan conquered the Tokyo Olympics at the age of 15 and is now a two-time Olympic champion diving star.
On the 3-meter springboard, Quan Jinpeng is practicing a movement repeatedly. Although it is not as good as his sister's level, the firmness and concentration in his eyes are the same as Quan Hongchan. Four years ago, 9-year-old Quan Jinpeng was influenced by his sister and resolutely embarked on the road of diving.
Looking back on time, Quan Hongchan, who was born in 2007, was discovered by a physical education teacher in her hometown at the age of 7 and started her diving career. She soon showed her extraordinary potential, and under the careful guidance of her mentor Chen Huaming, she gradually developed into a rising star in the Chinese diving world.
Quan Jinpeng came up with the idea of following in his sister's footsteps after his sister shined in the Olympic arena. In the fall of 2020, he officially joined the Guangdong Zhanjiang Sports School where his sister had struggled and started his diving dream.
Looking at the ripples on the water, one can't help but think: what kind of force made this sister and brother from an ordinary rural family choose the challenging path of diving? How will their stories continue to be written?
Train hard and progress fast
In the diving careers of Quan Hongchan and Quan Jinpeng, the two coaches played a crucial role. Chen Huaming, a senior coach from Zhanjiang, is Quan Hongchan's enlightenment mentor.
He keenly discovered the potential of Quan Hongchan, who was only 7 years old, and carefully cultivated this future diving pearl. Under the guidance of Chen Huaming, Quan Hongchan's talent has been fully demonstrated and developed, laying a solid foundation for her future glory.
And Guo Yi, the current coach of Quan Jinpeng, took over the mantle of Chen Huaming and continued to cultivate this pair of diving genius sisters and brothers. With his rich experience and unique teaching methods, Guo Yi is guiding Quan Jinpeng to gradually adapt to high-intensity training, helping him to continuously improve technically and psychologically.
Under the careful cultivation of the coaches, Quan Hongchan's growth trajectory is like a rising star. In 2021, at the age of 14, she shocked the world with her flawless performance when she won the gold medal in the women's 10m platform at the Tokyo Olympics.
She then won gold and silver medals at the 2022 World Championships and successfully defended her title at the 2023 Paris Olympics, becoming the youngest Chinese Olympic champion to win three gold medals at the age of 17 years and 131 days.
Every time Quan Hongchan dives, it seems to be a perfect interpretation, and her near-zero splash entry technique has amazed the whole world.
In contrast, 13-year-old Quan Jinpeng started late, but his progress has been amazing. At the 16th Guangdong Provincial Games in 2023, he has already been able to finish third in the men's Group C team competition.
Quan Jinpeng's talent and hard work made his enlightenment coach Chen Huaming full of praise, believing that his potential was no less than that of his sister Quan Hongchan.
However, the road to growth is never easy. In the face of his sister's aura and the expectations of the outside world, how will Quan Jinpeng balance pressure and motivation? Will he be able to create his own brilliance in the future?
The original article was published in Qianjiang Evening News 2022-08-15 "About" Quan Hongchan's younger brothers and sisters appeared in the diving field of the Guangdong Provincial Games, netizens: "The family is a little goldfish" "
"The younger brother of the Olympic champion" is under a lot of pressure
On the diving road of Quan Hongchan and Quan Jinpeng, the support of the family is like a warm current, injecting a steady stream of strength into them. Although the parents have no sports background, they silently support the children's dreams in an unpretentious way.
They did not interfere too much with the children's training, but chose to trust the coaches and the children's own judgment. This kind of trust and support has created a stress-free growth environment for Quan Hongchan and Quan Jinpeng.
The eldest brother Quan Jinhua, as the eldest son in the family, is both proud and distressed by the achievements of his younger siblings. He once said in an interview that he hoped that his sister Quan Hongchan would not be so sensible. Behind this sentence, it reveals his concern that his sister will bear the burden too soon, and it also reflects the family's expectation for the children to grow up simply and happily.
In the face of the attention and expectations of the outside world, Quan Hongchan showed calmness and maturity far beyond her age. On the field, she always maintains a calm mind, as if the hustle and bustle around her has nothing to do with her.
Even after winning the Olympic gold medal, she remained humble and constantly tried to improve herself. This composure is not only reflected in the competition, but also in her attitude towards fame and fortune. She has declined a lot of commercial endorsements and chose to devote more energy to training.
In contrast, Quan Jinpeng, who is only 13 years old, is in the stage of adapting to the pressure. As the "younger brother of an Olympic champion", he inevitably has to face comparisons and expectations from the outside world.
But it is reassuring to know that Quan Jinpeng is facing these challenges with a positive attitude. The hard work and focus he showed in training is exactly how he copes with pressure. Every perfect dive, every progressive achievement, is a witness to his growth.
However, as he grows older and his grades improve, Quan will face more challenges and expectations. Will he be able to remain calm and focused under tremendous pressure, like his sister? In the face of possible setbacks and difficulties in the future, how will the diving genius siblings deal with it?

Jeon Jin Peng is on the way
Quan Hongchan's future is full of challenges and opportunities. As a double Olympic champion, she will face even more pressure to defend her title. As she gets older, she needs to constantly adjust her technique and mindset to meet the challenges of the next generation of fighters.
Every perfect dive of Quan Hongchan is a transcendence of self and the inheritance of Chinese diving tradition. Quan Jinpeng is in a critical period of catching up and breaking through. He needs to improve his skills and close the gap on the top players.
At the same time, he has to learn how to shape his own unique style under the aura of his sister. Every progress of Quan Jinpeng is a continuation of the glory of the family and an interpretation of the new force of Chinese diving.
In addition to the splash, the story of Quan Hongchan and Quan Jinpeng reflects the bright light of sportsmanship. Their struggle is not only personal growth, but also an interpretation of perseverance, courage and the pursuit of excellence. This spirit is the precious wealth of Chinese sports and the driving force to inspire more young people to devote themselves to sports.
Looking forward to the future, the growth trajectory of Quan Hongchan and Quan Jinpeng will undoubtedly have a profound impact on the development of China's diving. Will their stories inspire more rural children to dream of sports? How will China's diving write a new glorious chapter in the new era?
