Deng Yaping is the greatest female player in the history of table tennis. She has been learning to play with her father since she was five years old. She joined the national team in 1988 and won the 14 world championship successively. She has been ranked first in the world table tennis for eight consecutive years and is the longest-serving female athlete in the world. She became the only athlete who won the Olympic table tennis gold medal in succession, and together with Qiao Hong, she won four Olympic gold medals, including singles and doubles.
When she was a child, Deng Yaping was determined to be an excellent athlete because her father was a sports coach at that time. However, she is short and short, which does not meet the requirements of sports schools at all. The door of the sports school can't be opened to her. So, the young Deng Yaping learned table tennis from her father, who stipulated that she must serve and catch the ball at 100 every day after physical training class. Although Deng Yaping is only seven or eight years old, in order to make his skills more skilled and his basic skills more solid, he tied sandbags on his legs and replaced the "wooden sign" with an iron sign.
How precious it is for a child! This will not only make the body suffer, but also bear great psychological pressure. Little she, every time she flashes, unfolds and pranks, can be described as a struggle!
The leg is swollen! The palm is worn out! ? It happens all the time! But he never complains or shouts tired! The father in charge of training sometimes cries with pain! There is always a reward for giving. Due to Deng Yaping's persistence, at the age of 10, she won the team and singles championships in the national youth table tennis competition.
After entering the national team, Deng Yaping overfulfilled the training task. When the team stipulated that she should practice until 1 1, she extended herself to 1 1: 45. When she trains until 6 pm, she will practice until 6: 45 or 7: 45. At the end of the training, she will practice until nine o'clock in the evening. Deng Yaping often misses training time, so she makes instant noodles for herself.
When practicing unilateral attack in the team, Deng Yaping still tied sandbags on his legs, facing the left and right movement of two male sparring partners, it took two hours to play! During the multi-ball training, the coach slammed the ball, and Deng Yaping opened his eyes and meticulously caught the ball every time. One after another, there were more than 1000 balls.
After each training class, Deng Yaping's clothes, shoes and socks are soaked with sweat, and sometimes even the floor is soaked. It is necessary to change clothes, shoes and socks and even change tables to practice again. Deng Yaping has long been engaged in intensive training. From the neck to the toes, many parts of her body were injured. In order to cope with the strain of waist muscles, she had to wear a wide waist protector. The knee joint is swollen with fat pads, and the ankle joint is almost covered with bone spurs. Usually, she has to endure it. If it really hurts, she has a needle to close it, and the soles of her feet are bleeding, so she picks it up and wraps it with a layer of gauze to practice. Even if the wound is infected, you should continue to practice squeezing pus.
Deng Yaping's outstanding achievements have changed the traditional concept of selecting athletes only among tall people in the world table tennis. IOC President juan antonio samaranch is also fascinated by Deng Yaping's style and skills. He personally presented her with the award and invited her to visit the headquarters of the National Olympic Committee in Lausanne?
Positive Celebrity Story 4: Closed Kingdom and Low-key Queen
On the Internet, Tao Huabi is called the post-90s generation? National goddess? . Overseas students buy Laoganma Chili sauce at a high price in foreign supermarkets and eat it from the aroma of lobster sauce and Chili? The smell of hometown? . Some foreign netizens said,? When you marry a woman in China, you marry two women: your fiancee and Tao Huabi? .

Guiyang Nanming Laoganma Factory is like a closed red kingdom.
This kingdom covers several miles in Fiona Fang and is distributed on a hillside in Yun Guan Village, Longdongbao, the southeast suburb of Guiyang. The whole factory is sandwiched between two expressway, and there is only one road several meters wide for pedestrians and red oil tankers.
The decoration style is very low-key, and the kingdom looks a bit rustic. The exterior walls are either white tiles commonly used in farmhouses or painted with a layer of white paint, and some buildings simply show mottled cement surfaces. The air smells of pepper. In the summer when the southeast wind blows, the stuffy smell of fried peppers is said to have drifted to Guiyang city, which is 10 km away.
More than 4000 workers wear blue uniforms. During the working hours of one day 10, they are in the factory, canteen and dormitory of 3. 1, and the red badge around their necks is their only pass to enter and leave the kingdom.
The security guards patrolling the factory gate are on alert, and the kingdom is not allowed to spy from the outside. Strangers taking photos with their mobile phones will be questioned. Entering and leaving the kingdom must be strictly verified. If you don't say hello, even if the local leaders come, they won't let you go? .
Red is the main color of this kingdom, and it is also the favorite color of Tao Huabi, the only queen in this kingdom.
This kind of red color, which belongs to pepper, appears in every inch of the kingdom. Red silk is wrapped with hydrangea in the middle, and ribbons are left on both sides, hanging on every door of the kingdom. From the license plate number? Expensive A8888? Limited edition Rolls Royce, to dozens of trucks and tankers painted red, all rearview mirrors are tied with red cloth.
Queen Tao Huabi lives in the administrative building decorated with blue glass. This 6-story building is horizontally flat and vertically symmetrical. It is said that this used to be the office building of the local township government.
Decorative cornices on the roof make the administration building look like the queen's crown. The three Chinese characters, no matter how tall, are lit up at night, even in expressway, a few kilometers away, as if swearing to the world the power and wealth of the kingdom.

Queen Tao Huabi started from scratch, creating and guarding the great wealth of the kingdom.
1in the summer of 1989, Tao Huabi, the widow of an accountant surnamed Li in Guiyang 206 Geological Team, built a bean jelly shop with bricks and asbestos tiles of less than 10 square meter.
On the first day of business, Tao Huabi only sold 7 Jin of bean jelly, but I didn't expect bean jelly to be seasoned for free? Her homemade flavored lobster sauce was robbed by diners. ? Laoganma? Soon, its name became famous among students in nearby universities, and then it was spread all over Guizhou by truck drivers, finally conquering the taste buds of China people.
Seven years later, the foundation stone of Tao Huabi's Red Kingdom was laid. At first, the queen's followers were only 40 workers. The factory was rented from Yun Guan Village Committee, and the packaging bottle was designed by her eldest son, Li Guishan. Did you use that famous portrait on the bottle label? Tao Huabi is wearing a white apron, slightly sideways, and her eyes are full of stubbornness and stubbornness.
For Tao Huabi, who was born in the Red Age and worshipped Mao Zedong, the process of accumulating wealth is like a never-ending battle.
After 265,438+0 years of painstaking efforts, Laoganma's hot sauce has no rival in the industry, but Queen Tao Huabi still lives in seclusion in the kingdom. Her office is connected with the bedroom. From the day she set up the factory, she ate and lived in the factory and rarely appeared in the outside world. My son and secretary arranged for her to travel abroad. Only two days later, Tao Huabi asked to return to the factory. Cann't sleep without hearing the bottle ringing in the factory? . A subordinate who followed the Queen for many years said that Tao Huabi seemed to be born to eat Chili peppers.
She gets up at 7 o'clock every morning and must watch CCTV news broadcast at 7 o'clock every night. No matter how busy she is at night, what she can finish that day will never be left over to the next day. Simple meals don't agree with big fish and big meat, no matter what vegetables, as long as there are peppers. She can't tolerate any waste. Some employees have seen her go to the canteen to eat with the workers. There is not a grain of rice left in the stainless steel plate.
When recalling the course of starting a business, Tao Huabi often used a word,? Fight? .
When I opened a restaurant in my early years, when I met the environmental protection urban management industry and commerce, Tao Huabi, who was on fire, picked up a frying spoon and was about to fight. ? You can ask for money, but you must be honest. If you come to the store on Sunday without a uniform and identification, will you come for free? Don't bully me casually, I'll hit you! ?
For local entrepreneurs in Guiyang, Tao Huabi used to work for tax payment and local tax authorities? Fight? . It is said that one year because the tax authorities underestimated 300,000 yuan, Laoganma Factory became the second largest taxpayer in Nanming District, and Tao Huabi directly swore at the door. Find it for Lao tze! ?
The Queen adheres to the business philosophy of "Jane", and official website, an old godmother, introduces her business in only one sentence. She doesn't go public, raise money, lend money or advertise. Think? Going public is cheating money, and once it goes public, it may lose everything? . Some officials have advised her to invest in real estate, but Tao Huabi said that all she has to do in her life is to make Chili peppers. No matter how fast the money comes, she can't be greedy.
Laoganma Chili sauce, a bottle of 8 yuan, is the red hematopoietic cell of the kingdom, creating wealth for the Queen day and night. According to media reports, more than 2.3 million bottles of Chili sauce are exported from the country every day, bringing in more than 4.5 billion yuan in revenue every year. Tao Huabi ranks 487th in Hurun China Rich List 20 16 and 9th in the global rich list.
On the Internet, Tao Huabi is called the post-90s generation? National goddess? . Overseas students buy Laoganma Chili sauce at a high price in foreign supermarkets and eat it from the aroma of lobster sauce and Chili? The smell of hometown? . Some foreign netizens said,? When you marry a woman in China, you marry two women: your fiancee and Tao Huabi? .

In sharp contrast to the rapidly growing wealth of the Kingdom and the popularity of Laoganma brand, Queen Tao Huabi still keeps an absolute low profile.
Tao Huabi never gives interviews. He is almost an expert in Guizhou media. For more than ten years, few journalists have been able to make an appointment to Tao Huabi, but the reasons for refusing are surprisingly consistent: poor health and too busy work. A reporter tried to contact Tao Huabi through the propaganda department of the local government, and the factory replied? Laoganma said that she couldn't read and didn't know what to say in the interview. She was afraid of making mistakes, so forget it. .
At the 2008 National People's Congress, Tao Huabi, a NPC representative who rarely appeared in public, became the target of media pursuit. In 20 12, a photo of Tao Huabi wearing a fur hat and fur coat was circulated on social media, and netizens who used to eat Laoganma's hot sauce left a message excitedly:? Let countless men burn their bodies and women with boiling blood appear! ?
Can Tao Huabi still hide in front of the media cameras, cherish words like gold and be surrounded by reporters? Sitting like a Buddha, no matter how you ask, you just don't talk. .
Even for official activities, Tao Huabi rarely participates. A local official in Guiyang recalled that he met at an important meeting, and the provincial leader named Tao to speak, but the old lady just didn't speak and only asked the secretary to speak for him.
Since 20 16, Tao Huabi has been absent from the National People's Congress for two consecutive years. The reason for asking for leave is physical problems, poor cervical spine and shoulder joint. A person close to Tao Huabi said that Tao Huabi had carried a backpack weighing 100 kg to sell goods in Baoshan, Longdong in his early years. The heavy load made her fall into incurable scapulohumeral periarthritis and cervical spondylosis, and she still needs plaster to relieve it.
A closed kingdom and a low-key queen are synonymous with Guiyang. Have local entrepreneurs in Guiyang done it? What's the impression of foreigners on Guiyang? In the survey, the three most answered words are: poor, far, and laodopted mother.
Li, a writer in Guiyang, has never met herself, but the stories collected are enough for her to write a 300,000-word novel The Story of Yun Guan Village and Laoganma. Li said that she had offered a reward of 5 million to ask someone to write a book for her, but she was too busy with her work.
Tao Huabi's entrepreneurial history is passed down from mouth to mouth among Guiyang people. The old liberation of relatives' hospital of geological team said that Tao Huabi was the first to get up in relatives' hospital, and hardworking people could carry things, which was the secret of illiterate Tao Huabi becoming a billionaire. A librarian of Guiyang Library said that honesty without tax evasion is Tao Huabi's protective umbrella against complicated local relations.
A taxi driver who picks up a job at Longdongbao Airport can tell a bunch of stories about Tao Huabi's fortune that are indistinguishable from the real ones. When passing Laoganma Factory, they will point to the factory beside the Ring Expressway and introduce it. Laodopted mother factory is here, and Tao Huabi lives in it? Words are full of pride.

Tao Huabi and her red kingdom have been hidden in mystery for a long time, so that three years ago? Tao Huabi no longer holds shares in Laodopted Mother? Such heavy news was not discovered by the media until after the Spring Festival this year.
At present, the shares of Laoganma Company are held by Tao Huabi's two sons, the eldest son Li Guishan is in charge of the market, the second son AARON Li is in charge of the production, and Tao Huabi is still the chairman of Laoganma.
The two sons also seem to have inherited Tao Huabi's low-key style. In the public information, I only know that Li Guishan worked in the automobile team of the 206 Geological Team after he was transferred from the army, and later resigned to start a business with his mother and became the first general manager of Laoganma. In 2008, the youngest son, AARON Li, took over as the general manager and has been in office ever since.
The queen with absolute power seems to have made all the preparations for retirement.
Today, 70-year-old Tao Huabi, with a fortune of 7 billion, still keeps his routine when he opened a bean jelly shop. Tao Huabi has almost no hobbies except playing mahjong with the old lady around him occasionally.
Everyone in Yun Guan village said that Tao Huabi was at war? Catching chicken is a master of local popular mahjong in Guiyang: he has a strong sense of victory and defeat, is good at remembering cards and rarely points guns.
It's hard to say whether this story is true or not, but people around me say that Tao Huabi's memory is really amazing. She can remember the names and birthdays of many people in the company. The speech prepared by the secretary for her can basically be memorized verbatim after listening to it several times, and the financial statements can be remembered after listening to it once or twice, and the general ledger can be worked out quickly in my mind.
The queen still has to take care of the daily operation of the kingdom. The company's accounts are clear. How much pepper, soybean and vegetable oil are purchased, and how much hot sauce is sold? Tao Huabi should personally draw a circle for each account in the upper right corner of the document. She was born in a poor family in Meitan, Guizhou. She was illiterate since she was a child, and later learned to write her own name. When approving the documents, she wrote them down one by one? Tao Huabi? Three words.
Everyone around me said that until now, Tao Huabi personally presided over the research and development of new products. Her familiarity and sensitivity to peppers are unparalleled. In order to maintain a keen sense of taste and smell, she neither drinks tea nor drinks. She will personally test the peppers she bought and smell them with her nose to see if they are good. When she gets a competitive hot sauce, she can take a bite and make the same taste.
The queen's personality is also like pepper. She has a bad temper and obviously bears a grudge. A worker who has followed Tao Huabi for many years said that it is inevitable for Laoganma to reprimand and abuse employees when she is angry, but she regards employees as her own children and once presided over employees' weddings. A security guard is seriously ill and needs dialysis. When Tao Huabi knew about it, she immediately signed the money and told him? Forget the money until it's cured, okay? .
The wages of ordinary workers are at least higher than the local average. 500 yuan has attracted a large number of laborers for the kingdom. Bus No.78 goes directly from the railway station to Yun Guan Village. Bus drivers are used to young people carrying big bags and small bags. They applied from some remote mountainous areas in Zunyi and Bijie.
In the middle of every month, workers who have just paid their wages line up and can withdraw all the cash from the ATM at the factory gate in half a day. This is also the best time for small shops and vendors near the factory to do business. Snacks, cigarettes and cosmetics are usually sold out on this day.
A small shop not far from the entrance of the girls' dormitory. Cheap bedding and pillows are specially designed for new employees of Laoganma. 100 yuan can take one set away. The proprietress said that she knew Tao Huabi's youngest son, AARON Li, and often saw this junior high school classmate pass by her shop without saying hello. I don't know what to tell people when they are developed, do I?
Yun Guan Village has been demolished, and most villagers have moved away. According to the overall economic planning of Nanming District of Guiyang, it will become a food industrial park. The proprietress is still guarding her shop and wants to talk more about the demolition payment. For more than ten years, she witnessed the kingdom across the street expanding its factories and territory bit by bit.
When the weather is fine, the proprietress often sees Tao Huabi wandering around the factory, and the old lady is unhappy, as if guarding something.
