Chapter 287 The Iron Hammer Who Dedicated His Life to Volleyball

"Director Lang, don't you need to go?"

Chen Chichi, who was dissatisfied with Ye Mingxuan's arrangement before, has changed his mind now. Director Lang is getting old, and another one has too many injuries. Lang Ping has devoted his life to volleyball. Everyone really can't bear her to work hard.

"Director Zhang, Director Lang really can't do heavy work, you can't let Director Lang do it!"

Ye Mingxuan, who was relatively familiar with Director Lang, insisted that she not go up the mountain. According to media reports, Director Lang had undergone seven surgeries on his knees. If anything went wrong here, no one could bear the responsibility.

"You lad..."

Director Lang wanted to persevere and prove that he was no worse than young people, but seeing Ye Mingxuan's serious eyes, his heart softened. This young man really cared about her health and really loved volleyball.

"I'm not working, so follow me to see the head office?"

"You should rest! The Women's Volleyball World Cup in the second half of the year and the Olympics next year are still waiting for the women's volleyball team to shine! You should take a good rest!"

Director Lang took a break from his busy schedule and managed to find time to come here. The purpose of coming here is to let Chinese people understand women's volleyball and support women's volleyball. After all, women's volleyball is the only world champion among the three major sports in my country, and it is also the world's top team.

My own body knows that it really can't support her to do physical labor. After a game, she can't insist on standing and guiding, and Director Lang doesn't force her.

She just sat down and was about to wave goodbye to everyone when her cell phone rang crazily. When she received the call, it was like a bolt from the blue. A bad news came from the phone, the women's volleyball team, the setter Yao Di was injured .

After hanging up the phone, Director Lang showed eagerness and worry, unable to stay for a moment.

"I'm leaving, sorry director, the girls are injured, I have to go back and check the situation!"

"Director Zhang, arrange a car to send Lang to the airport immediately, immediately!" Ye Mingxuan became serious and took over the command without hesitation: "Pay attention to safety on the road, prepare everything for the air ticket, and check the luggage afterward. Please, Director Zhang Go there yourself and go now."

Zhang Hangxi also knows that the matter is of great importance. The Women's Volleyball World Cup will be in two months. There is no delay in this matter. The program recording has a mature process. The on-site director knows how to record. go.

After Zhang Hangxi and Director Lang left, the scene was overcast. Even those who never cared about the women's volleyball team became worried. In order not to continue this atmosphere, Chen Chichi and Ye Mingxuan looked at each other and decided to continue working on the mountain.

After changing into raincoats and carrying bamboo baskets on their backs, a group of people walked up the hillside.

"Xiaoxuan, you know about women's volleyball, can you tell us about women's volleyball?"

"Brother, I didn't even have time to ask how Lang's title Iron Hammer came about, do you know?"

After all, it's recording a show, so you can't keep crying, can you?The elder brother broke the silence, and Peng Peng accepted the curious interrogation.

Ye Mingxuan nodded, recalled and organized his words to answer: "The reason why Director Lang is called Iron Hammer is because of her name, surname Lang, and because Director Lang entered the Huaguo women's volleyball team in 1981 and served as the main attacker." Hands, known for their vigor, strength, courage, and ferocity in playing. From 1986 to [-], our women's volleyball team was invincible and unstoppable in five years. .”

"Sister Ning and Yan, have you ever been injured?" Because table tennis is not considered a very competitive sport, but he was curious because he had never seen any media reports about Zhang Yining being injured.

"Table tennis players rarely get injured. After playing for too long, their arms are bad and sore. This is the same as everyone else."

Zhang Yining's voice is not that feminine and gentle, but has a neutral and heroic feeling, bold and generous.

"Football ankle injuries are common, sprained feet or stepped on and shoveled, but I'm fine, overall there's nothing wrong with it!" Wu Haiyan was born in [-], she's still very young, and her voice is a bit louder than Zhang Yining's Feminine softness.

Ye Mingxuan nodded and continued: "Director Lang entered the national team in 70, and after the World Cup in [-], Director Lang retired. Later, the media reported that Director Lang at that time was in his twenties with a bone age in his [-]s! "

"After playing the World Cup, Director Lang was in unbearable pain due to the injury. After a physical examination, it was concluded that her kneecap was worn up to 70% due to long-term overload."

Zhang Yining showed a look of admiration, and said with a smile: "Athletes, especially those with strong resistance, aren't they suffering from injuries? Many weightlifters can't straighten their backs for the rest of their lives. I'm one of the lucky ones." Right! No injuries."

"Brother, Aunt Lang retired in [-], why are you still..." Zhang Zifeng asked suspiciously, she didn't understand how she could still receive calls from the women's volleyball team since she had retired.

"Director Lang, Director Lang, she is now the head coach of the women's volleyball team!"

Ye Mingxuan patted Zhang Zifeng's head. Most of the people of that generation or athletes who contributed to the country were unknown to the public. Only after winning the championship could they be known to the public. Of course, those shameless masters who played football Don't count them in.

"After retiring, Director Lang learned foreign languages ​​while recuperating from injuries. In 87, he went to study abroad in the Bald Eagle Country. In 3, Director Lang had her daughter. She has coached volleyball teams in many countries abroad. This is why she is relatively controversial. In the [-] Olympic Games, the women's volleyball semi-finals were the Bald Eagles coached by Lang and the Chinese women's volleyball team coached by Chen Zhonghe. The Chinese women's volleyball team lost to the Bald Eagles in the end and only won No.[-]."

Coaching the women's volleyball team of the Bald Eagle National Team was the most controversial point of Lang's coaching. At that time, many people thought that Lang's coaching was because of money, but it was not the case.

Many may be as curious as Zhang Zifeng and Peng Peng, and would ask Director Lang why he coached the Bald Eagles women's volleyball national team?
"Director Lang coached the Huaguo women's volleyball team three times, almost every time he was ordered in the face of danger, and each time he resigned due to injury. Before the Chinese women's volleyball team won the championship in 04, Director Lang once said that the Huaguo women's volleyball team has not yet returned. Before the top of the world, she will not coach any national team, but it was the Olympic champion in 04 that made Director Lang feel relieved to coach the Bald Eagles."

"Brother, you've said so much, haven't you explained why Lang coached Bald Eagle?"

Ye Mingxuan glanced at Peng Peng, but did not answer, but Wu Haiyan, who was silent behind him, continued the topic and added: "Because of money!"

When everyone looked at her in surprise, Wu Haiyan explained generously: "Before Coach Lang coached the Bald Eagle, the salary was not high. Coach Lang's daughter had to go to school, and money was needed for medical treatment. Coach Lang's savings were a drop in the bucket. , up to now, the family conditions under Lang’s guidance can only be regarded as middle class!”

"Yes, in 80, Director Lang of the Olympic Games gave up the bald eagle's retention, and resolutely chose to return to China, until now."

There are many things that Ye Mingxuan didn't say. Director Lang's dedication to volleyball is unimaginable to others. The first time he returned to China after retiring was in 1990. He coached with an illness and persisted for only one year. He had to resign and cultivate. The second time was In 1995, when her daughter was only three years old, facing family and volleyball, Director Lang gave up the family and divorced her husband before returning to China.

In 1988, the Seoul Olympic Games, the Chinese women's volleyball team only won the bronze medal. In the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games, the Chinese women's volleyball team only won No.7. In the 1994 Women's Volleyball World Championships, it was No.8. From 88 to 94, they did not win the three major events. For any champion, it can be said that the women's volleyball team at that time did not go to the abyss. This is also the reason why Director Lang gave up his family and children in 95 and resolutely returned to China. A year later, he won the runner-up in the Atlanta Olympics under the guidance of Lang. He won the Championship and had to resign again in 97 due to injuries.

In 2015, when the three main players were injured and recuperated, Lang led the women's volleyball team and won the world championship again after 12 years. You must know that the main attacker, second attacker and setter were injured at that time. It is conceivable that this world champion won How difficult it is.
