Original title: “The essential thing to fly in I am”-interview with Zhang Shupeng, China’s “wing costume”

Xinhua News Agency, Changsha, September 18 (Reporter Ruan around, yuan Ruting) the competition results of the 7th WWL wing flight World Championship 2018 were announced on the 18th. In the target competition, Zhang Shupeng, the only Chinese player and the only Asian player, won the third place.

In this competition, the reporter witnessed Zhang Shupeng, a young man from Inner Mongolia, jumping down from the towering mountain of Zhangjiajie Tianmenshan Mountain and flying rapidly. During the match, the reporter interviewed him.

Zhang Shupeng was the first Chinese player to appear in the world championship of wing-mounted flying. Before he was engaged in wing-mounted flying, he was a member of the paraglider national team and won the paraglider world championship, more than 15000 flights have been completed in 11 years.

In 2012, Zhang Shupeng watched the first world championship of wing-mounted flying at Tianmen Mountain. The charm of this sport inspired his determination to engage in wing-mounted flying. In 2013, he went to America to study skydiving in Arizona first. “On March 15, 2013, I clearly remember that it was the day when I jumped to the 207th jump, and then I got the license to learn wing-mounted flight.”

Coach James Bohr said that Zhang Shupeng was a world-class miracle of the Chinese in this field. “Other players may jump three or four times a day in training, but I have to jump nine or ten times a day. On the day when I practice the hardest, I jump 12 times.” Zhang Shupeng said that flying fast, accurate and far is the goal he has been striving.

Take off, accelerate, slow down, turn…… The movements of wing-mounted flying athletes in the air are all completed by adjusting their body posture. Zhang Shupeng said that before each flight, he would adjust himself to a peaceful and relaxed state. Now, he has left an eagle in the sky of America, Italy and Switzerland.

“Flying in I am is essential. This is my hobby and my profession. I yearn for the sky. The feeling of wing-mounted flight is freer, just like the growth of wings, which cannot be realized by other movements.” Zhang Shupeng said.

In the more than 20 years since the birth of wing-mounted flight, there have been few Chinese in this extreme sport. Zhang Shupeng not only became a top-level wing-mounted flying athlete in China and even Asia, but also represented China for the first time in 2016 in the world championship of wing-mounted flying. In 2017, in 2018, the two world championships ranked the top three in the target competition.

“Do foreigners play extreme sports better than Chinese? I don’t agree.” Zhang Shupeng said, “I want to change this idea with my own actions.”

On the eve of last year’s National Games, the sisters who had retired, married and had a child chose to return and picked Gold on duet event. In the following world championships in Budapest, the twin sisters won the silver medal again, showing an excellent competitive state. In preparation for the Jakarta Asian Games, the sisters did not stop after the World Championships.

“After the world championship, our training was very systematic and we didn’t stop the training for one day. Leaders and coaches have made personalized arrangements for our training so that we can receive this kind of high-intensity training physically.” After the year of standing, they still insisted on the flower tour double Court. The sisters said that this had never happened in the history of flower tour in China and even in the world.

Preparing for Jakarta duet event, the sisters used flamenco, the theme of the world championship, on their technical self-selected programs, but they all changed and improved their movement arrangement and connection.

“We actually wanted to reduce the difficulty a little this year, because the age is getting bigger and bigger every day, but now the difficulty of our movements increases instead of decreasing, which indicates that our physical fitness has been strengthened and is still improving.” The sisters said.

The two-person technical choice and free choice both won the first place, and the excellent competitive state also makes people look forward to the prospect of the two sisters in Tokyo Olympic Games. The two sisters said: “For us, we are still very confident, and now there are other players in the national team. If we don’t have the strength to participate in the Olympic Games, I think other players are also very powerful.”

From the Doha Asian Games in 2006 to the Jakarta Asian Games in 2018, although they had experienced the peak of sports and retired for a time, the sisters were almost synonymous with Chinese flower tour. In the eyes of the sisters, this is a responsibility.

Zheng Jia, the coach who guided the sisters for many years, was very happy. “They are very talented athletes. Not every athlete who has become a mother can recover like this. First of all, they must have talent, then they must love, and the third is that the training is in place, systematic and targeted.”

“So I am especially grateful to the leaders of the Center for giving us a personalized arrangement for the double group. Because they are too old to bear the same training intensity and rhythm as the big army, their rhythm is completely personalized. According to their physical condition and the problems to be solved, very targeted training.” Zheng Jia said that although the training time of the sisters did not last long, the quality was higher and the concentration was stronger.

After the year of establishment, Zheng Jia continued to fight in the flower Tour field. Zheng Jia was full of expectation for the future of Wen Ting’s sisters: “Looking forward to their next game!”

Xinhua News Agency, Hohhot, November 30: boxing athlete Li Qian: achieving the small goal of world champion and aiming at the big goal of Tokyo Olympics

Xinhua News Agency reporter Wang Chunyan, zhang Yunlong

“I have achieved my small goal on the highest podium this time. The big goal must be to aim at the Tokyo Olympics in 2020, but before that, I must get the tickets next year.” Li Qian, the 75kg bronze medalist of women’s boxing at the 2016 Rio Olympics, said.

As an athlete who has been fighting in boxing for many years, Li Qian was always “a little short” from the highest podium before: Silver Medal of Liaoning National Games in 2013, Silver Medal of 2014 Incheon Asian Games, silver medal of 2015 Asian women Boxing Championship, the bronze medal of the 2016 Rio Olympics…… Although it can raise the national flag, it is always impossible for the national anthem to be played.

Li Qian’s depression and unwilling heart finally broke away after winning the 75kg gold medal in the 2018 World Women’s Boxing Championship.

“The moment of winning was very exciting, but it soon calmed down, because I think I have the strength to win this gold medal now. Over the years, although the gold medals in some previous competitions have not been won, they are also a good accumulation and an incentive for themselves.” Li Qian said.

“This time, Li Qian won the mentality. The Mentality determines the state. When the mentality is relaxed, the state will get better and better. The result is also a natural thing. She has always had the strength to win the gold medal. This time she finally “broke window paper”. She will also have a positive impact on the International Boxing Federation and the referee, and the impression score will also have extra points.” Li Qian’s coach hadabatel said.

When it comes to how to adjust the mentality of this competition, Li Qian said that mutual encouragement and support with his teammates cannot be separated, and they will also make some positive “hints”.

There were also two girls Dou Dan and Yang Xiaoli from Inner Mongolia who participated in the women’s boxing world championship with Li Qian. They won the Champions of 64kg and 81kg respectively.

“Before, in order to win the gold medal, the idea in my heart was that I should play well. I wanted to win, and only the gold medal seemed to be seen in my eyes. The more I think about it, the action and mentality will be affected instead, and I can’t play it on the stage. In this competition, I often talked with the coach, and several of our teammates also talked, looking for various ways to adjust themselves without holding themselves there. Sometimes we will give ourselves some encouragement, stand up and say to ourselves in the mirror, ‘you can, you can! ‘”Li Qian said.

In addition, Li Qian said that there is another “small goal” to motivate himself. “If I win the championship this time, I can go to Beijing Sports University to study as a graduate student in the ‘champion class’, because only the champions of the world championships, the World Cup and the Olympic Games are qualified to study. After practicing for so many years, I finally got the champion this time and finally could read the ‘champion class. The three of us had an appointment to read together before.”

Just achieved the “small goal” of winning the World Championship, Li Qian has focused on the “big goal” of the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games “. Although there is no limit for athletes over 25 years old to fall in love in the team, the girl born in 1990 said frankly, “there is no time to consider these things now”.

Ended the World Championship. Li Qian had less than a week to return to Inner Mongolia to accompany his parents. On December 2nd, she will continue to set off again and go to Beijing to participate in training, saving strength for achieving the “big goal.
