At 2: 30am on the 28th, more than 500 relatives, friends, neighbors and journalists in Liu Xiang sat around the center of the residential area to watch the live TV broadcast. When Liu Xiang rushed to the finish line, Liu Xiang's parents jumped up from the stool! Liu Xiang's mother.

I was dizzy with excitement and almost fell down. Fortunately, there were many people around me, so I didn't fall.
Excited, Liu Xiang's mother burst into tears, unable to speak for a long time. The surrounding residents were afraid that Liu Xiang's mother would be too excited, so they sent her to a chair next to her and kept rubbing her heart!
Liu Xiang's mother mainly cares about Liu Xiang in her life. Compared with my father, my mother seldom asks about Liu Xiang's training. She said: "I only waited for this gold medal for three months. I didn't dare to expect a gold medal before, but when everything is in sight, it's like dreaming! "
"When I was a child, Liu Xiang was tall and thin. At first, I wanted him to take part in physical exercise to make his appetite better. He can eat more and grow stronger! When Liu Xiang was in the second grade, the teacher said that Liu Xiang had a talent for sports and encouraged him to practice sports. At first, I didn't agree with the idea of letting Liu Xiang stay after school to exercise. One is afraid of suffering children, and the other is afraid of neglecting their studies. But Liu Xiang's father believes that since he loves sports, he supports him to practice. " Liu Xiang's mother told reporters.
Liu Xiang was attracted by the coach of the sports school in the fourth grade and entered the Putuo District Sports School. Due to the large amount of exercise and poor school accommodation, the desperate mother secretly cried several times. Later, she simply rode a bicycle for 5 kilometers every day after work and sent snacks to her growing son. Liu Xiang finally lived up to his parents' expectations.
Speaking of my beloved son Liu Xiang, my mother looks happy, because of his all-powerful situation in the international track and field, and also because of his filial piety! Because of the competition, Liu Xiang often goes abroad and brings gifts to his family every time he goes abroad. In addition to beautiful clothes and watches, I also sent mascara, lip gloss and eye cream to my mother who is nearly 50 years old several times, in order to keep her young and beautiful forever. Bring back shoes, shirts, etc. For dad and grandpa. A pair of Nike sneakers sent by Liu Xiang, grandpa still can't bear to wear them! Just a few days before going to Athens, Liu Xiang bought a "rally machine" for grandpa.
"I'm really happy that my son can be so considerate for our parents. I really want to see Liu Xiang right now. I want to cook the best food for my son. " Mother Liu said. (End)
The emotional story of Liu Xiang, a famous athlete in the 10th National Games.
(2005- 10- 17 09: 19:05)
Weekend newspapers are authorized to publish.
The mental process of Liu Xiang's growth
Liu Xiang is undoubtedly the biggest "wrist" of the 10th National Games. At the opening ceremony of the 10th National Games, as the flag bearer of the Shanghai delegation, he won the most applause from the audience. In this National Games, Liu Xiang will not only participate in the men's 1 100 meter hurdles, but also participate in the men's 4× 100 meter relay race.
I think it is necessary to introduce my name before telling my story. My name is Liu Xiang, and everyone knows it, but perhaps few people know why my name is Liu Xiang. Now everyone thinks my name is really exquisite, as the name implies, but when I was a child, I hardly called myself Liu Xiang. When I was a child, my family had a "big discussion" around the question of giving me a name.
A popular naming method at that time was to take a single name. Take the father's surname, first name and mother's surname. Father's name is Liu Xuegen and mother's name is Ji Fenhua. According to this truth, I should have been called "Liu Ji". Obviously, this seemingly auspicious name, because it sounds exactly the same as "repeating the first grade", was unanimously rejected by all relatives who wanted me to be Jackie Chan.
As a result, everyone began to try to let my name affect my personality, and the name "Liu Qiang" was soon mentioned. This is a relatively common name, but also relatively simple, uncles, uncles want me to be stronger. But my mother soon made a different sound. At that time, there was a neighbor's child named Qiang Qiang, which means a little stubborn in Shanghai dialect, and he was also a king of skins, so my mother didn't have a good impression of this name, and she didn't want to call me Qiang Qiang in the future, so "Liu Qiang" died.
Naming a child is always a complicated process. From this point of view, my name has gone smoothly. The third time I asked for advice, "Liu Xiang" was mentioned by my uncle. "Xiang" and "Qiang" are similar in pronunciation in Shanghai dialect, and the word "Xiang" also means "flying" and "auspicious", which is nice, so my father patted the table: "Good! Just call Liu Xiang! "
In my mind, I don't like school very much. When I was in the nursery and kindergarten, like some of my peers, I seemed to prefer to stay at home. Of course, it is inevitable to make up some excuses every day to avoid sending them to kindergarten. At that time, my common excuse was "toothache", because it was difficult to pretend that I was coughing, and my fever needed the temperature of my forehead to prove it. Only I know about the toothache, and others can't see it. However, smart parents will naturally not be deceived by my little tricks. In my impression, there are few successful cases of toothache.
Finally, when I reached school age, I picked up my schoolbag like other children and ran to school happily. I remember going to Zhongshan North Road No.1 Primary School in the first grade. Later, because I moved, I went to Guannong Primary School in the second grade.
It must be admitted that until now, I still have an inexplicable resistance to going to school. But at that time, every child had a very novel feeling, that is, he could sit in the classroom with his bag on his back. As for if all goes well, we will spend a whole 16 years of study time, or even longer, which is beyond the expectation of children of our age.
Relatively speaking, I am more interested in liberal arts than science. Of course, my reading career as a normal student ended in the fourth grade of primary school. I didn't realize that many students had to make liberal arts choices. But I really liked Chinese at that time, probably because I read more cartoons when I was a child. At that time, I was proud of my good handwriting. Since I began to write Pinyin in the first grade of primary school, my teacher praised me for my good writing and posted my words on the wall for my classmates to see. My father naturally won't praise me easily, but after the Olympic Games, he was surprised to see my signature and my message to others: "Xiangxiang, have you practiced calligraphy specially?" I said no, in fact, I think my handwriting is very general, but when I write, I try to be natural and neat, not artificial. May do other things, and so on.
Speaking of praise, I have to admit that I am a person who needs praise and encouragement. I think this is the source of my confidence and motivation. Perhaps because of this, I was deeply impressed by a class cadre election in primary school.
It was a class cadre re-election, presided over by the class teacher. According to the procedure, the teacher reported the names of several candidate students, and then the students raised their hands to vote. If students think there are other suitable candidates, they can also bring them up.
I am not optimistic about this election method, because in our time, the teacher's words are undoubtedly the "highest instruction" for students. The students recommended by the teacher all got nearly 100% of the votes, but the students who were not recommended by the teacher were not optimistic, which means that the teacher didn't care about them, and the students naturally wouldn't be "troubled".
Of course, I must admit that I think this election method is unfair, because I am too naughty and play the role of "king of skins" in the eyes of teachers, so I am not qualified to be a class cadre. In fact, my academic performance was excellent at that time, and I was willing to do something for the class, but I vaguely felt that the teacher would not give me such an opportunity.
The election process is naturally from big to small, first the captain, I have self-knowledge, silent. Then select the squadron leader and squadron members. In fact, I think the academic performance of those candidates is similar to mine, and some of them are not as good as mine. I'm getting a little anxious. After the election of squadron cadres, it is the monitor election, which is the last chance, but "Liu Xiang" did not appear in the candidate's name reported by the teacher.
I am really anxious, because I know that if I miss this village, there will be no next store. I gritted my teeth and raised my hand.
"Liu Xiang, you can put your hand down." The teacher said to me after everyone raised their hands to vote, but my hand was still stubbornly raised. "Is there anything to say?" The teacher began to feel confused, but she gave me a chance to speak. I suddenly stood up and said, "report to the teacher, I want to choose a classmate!" " "The teacher smiled:" Who do you want to choose? ""I choose! " I answered firmly. At that time when I was studying, choosing myself was still a very new thing. Everyone looks at the election with humility. In students' minds, elections are naturally recommended by others. How do they choose themselves? Besides, I'm so confident. In my opinion, I won't go if I can't, but if I can, why not fight for an opportunity?
The teacher also paused, but still gave me a chance: "Well, please raise your hand if you choose Liu Xiang!"
Sparsely, I raised a few small hands. When I saw them, I saw several good male students who played with me on weekdays.
There is no doubt that my "voluntary service" ended in a fiasco, and it has been the talk of my classmates for a long time.
Looking back now, this is a trivial matter after all, and it is natural for teachers to do that. But I don't know why, after that incident, I began to lose interest in learning, or I lost a kind of motivation. It can be seen that the sense of honor of the class cadres at that time was very important in the eyes of primary school students. Sometimes I think that if the teacher can give me a chance that time, I will definitely redouble my efforts to repay her trust. Unfortunately, I didn't get a chance.
Liu Xiang: Girlfriends have to go through parents and coaches first.
Many reporters either explicitly or implicitly asked me to talk about my love, or my love history. I always have nothing to say. It's not that I refuse to cooperate, but that I am really honest: I really don't have a girlfriend.
I'm a little embarrassed to say it. After I entered the second junior sports school, girls from the track and field team did confess to me. Most of them are extroverted, and some come to talk to me directly or something. For this reason, some "big shots" in the weightlifting team and judo team still don't like me. They came over and warned me fiercely not to get so close to someone. Sometimes, I get a lot of letters from them, but I always tidy them up and lock them in the drawer. Sometimes I admire myself. In this respect, I can also prioritize and know what is most important to me at my age.
If you really devote yourself to training, there is actually no extra energy to love.
After you come back from Athens, dear, that's even worse. I remember once, a newspaper in the south didn't know what was going on, and published an article saying that it was learned from my "good friend" that I had always had a girlfriend, and she had been studying at Shanghai Jiaotong University. I laughed it off, and as a result, a friend of mine from the middle school attached to Jiaotong University told me that when they heard that I had a girlfriend, all the girls in their third grade were crying on their desks. All this makes me a little nervous.
Maybe my past love is blank, but I believe my future love must have a story. Many friends have asked me what I want from my other half. I always answer with a smile. In fact, I don't want anything but her kindness. But I know that this requirement already contains many conditions.
A kind girl must be gentle, considerate and considerate at first. I told my father half jokingly that when I got married, I would find someone like my grandmother. Because I think my grandmother is very nice and a model of a good wife and mother. Of course, kindness also includes good temper, so don't be too "controlling". To tell the truth, I'm scared to see a girl who can "fuck". Sometimes I feel sorry for my teammates who are confused by their girlfriends who can fuck. Kindness, of course, also includes filial piety. My other half must be kind to my parents.
I think the first factor in choosing the other half is not her appearance, but her personality. I think the requirement of appearance is not even as important as the requirement of height, because I am close to 1.9 meters, and my girlfriend should not be too short, but should be around 1.7 meters. ...
Okay, I know it's time to stop. Again? If we go on talking, it will taste like marriage in disguise. But one thing is certain, my other half must get the consent of my parents, even my master Sun Haiping.
On "Love" and "Love"
I want to talk about my hobby first, but it was actually "forced" by a news. That news report said that I usually like watching movies, which is true, but later it said that my favorite actress was Shu Qi, and that every time I saw a poster of Shu Qi, I would shout, "Wow! How beautiful! " It makes me laugh and cry.
I don't deny that Shu Qi is a beautiful movie star and a very hard-working actor, but I think what I appreciate more is Brigitte Lin.
Maybe many people will think that I am a bit like a person born in the 1970s, and sometimes I feel a little strange myself. Why is my favorite star different from the post-80s generation? But it's true. I think Brigitte Lin may not be the most beautiful, but her temperament is very touching. As for my favorite actor, I admire Chow Yun Fat and Mark's windbreaker, which is called chic! Of course, what really moved me about Chow Yun Fat was not only his demeanor, but also his conscientious professionalism. From Hong Kong to Hollywood, he really achieved his position today through his own step-by-step efforts. At this point, I also appreciate Jackie Chan.
My hobby of singing must have been fired by the media, which is no longer news. That's true. I really like singing, and sometimes I like to drag a group of friends to the "cash box" (the famous karaoke hall in Shanghai) to sing. You don't have to come out if you hide in the box, which saves a lot of unnecessary trouble. As for the male singer I admire, many people may think it is Jay Chou. Actually, I admire Tao Jiji, Jacky Cheung, a great singer, and of course Leslie Cheung. Unfortunately, he died young. As for female singers, I'm afraid someone will laugh at me again, but facts are facts. I'd better say it. I prefer listening to Zhang Aijia's songs.
Speaking of sports, I believe many people know that I admire Jordan the most. I think the NBA began with Jordan's second comeback, and the style of flying people will always remain in my memory. I admire his skills, but I appreciate his demeanor as a man and his demeanor outside the court, which is also a direction I have been working hard for. The following are some personal views. I have always felt that the era of Jordan's second comeback is really the era of NBA stars. Ewing, Buckley, Hardaway, O 'Neill, Miller, drexler, Peyton, Malone and so on. Relatively speaking, the current NBA is a bit boring. Of course, there are still some super talented players, such as Kobe. I still have a set of Jordan's No.23 jersey, which was given by Nike. Unfortunately, Jordan's autograph is not on it. If I meet him in the future, I will definitely ask him to sign one. As for football, I pay more attention to uefa europa league. I want to ask who is my favorite football star. Guess what? Haha, I guess you guessed wrong. My favorite is batistuta! I like the spirit of "those who stand in my way die" in his heyday, and I like his courage to shoot at any angle and position!
Now besides training, I have less time to control myself every day. Once I am free, I may go to QQ, chat with some friends, and sometimes go to the alumni website of our class. Online games are rarely played now, so I dare not play, for fear of wasting too much time. I used to be obsessed. I remember that there were no online games in the earliest time. We played Age of Empires online, and now it's a hardcore game. But at that time, I really liked it. Remember to pinch the stopwatch to calculate the time every time you upgrade. In the first pass, I got some farmers and sent some people to cut down trees. I think the level is still ok. In the back, I started playing online games. The earliest Stone Age and later Legend and Crazy Tank are what I am good at. At that time, I remember that few players on the team could beat me.
In retrospect, some hobbies are really distant memories. Now, more often, I play music after training, chat with my roommate Chen Liang, and go to the team doctor for massage to relax my muscles.
I love my family.
Although the home is small, it is warm as spring.
Liu Xiang lives in Haitang Garden in Putuo District. It's hard to imagine that a two-bedroom apartment less than 80 square meters is the home of China's "Hurdler Prince". Father Liu Xuegen is an ordinary driver of the water supply company, and Liu Xiang's family is not well off. Because of this, Liu Xiang has always had a wish to buy a big house for his parents by his own efforts. Kind parents actually don't care if their son can live in a big house. As long as his son makes progress, it is the greatest comfort to them.
I remember that Liu Xiang broke the Asian record for the first time. The old couple were so excited that they didn't sleep a wink all night. "The phone keeps ringing, and congratulations from friends and relatives come and go." The next morning, my mother went to the market to buy Liu Xiang's favorite dishes: shredded eel, broad beans, sword beans and perch ... In fact, Liu Xiang had already had dinner on the plane. "I told them not to prepare, but they just wouldn't listen."
When picking up the station, Liu Xiang looked at her mother and stuffed the flowers into her arms. It was Mother's Day and Liu Xiang didn't forget it. After entering the door, he was busy digging out a holiday gift for his mother from his luggage: a body fat tester for measuring weight and fat content; A big bag of cosmetics: moisturizing cream, facial cleanser, hair conditioner ... Every time my son goes abroad to compete, he always remembers to bring a gift to his mother.
In addition to his parents, his grandmother, who has been troubled by diabetes all the year round, and his 87-year-old grandfather have always been his concern. Liu Xiang was brought up by her grandparents, who died on the eve of the Ninth National Games. Liu Xiang's failure to fulfill his last filial duty because of the competition became his greatest regret. Now, as long as Liu Xiang goes home once a week in Shanghai, no matter how busy he is, he will take time to visit his grandfather Liu Zhikuan.
Mom, your son is a lamp for you.
In Liu Xiang's eyes, her mother is always willing to spend money to buy food for herself, but she is a little "stingy" to herself. "I always advised her not to be too frugal. I hope my mother will eat more nutrition, keep in good shape and dress young and beautiful. This will make me feel more at ease when I am training outside. "
My son's considerate words often make my mother's eyes moist. I remember last year, Ji Fenhua inadvertently joked with his son: "I have a sensible and obedient son. I don't seem to have bothered much. In an instant, my son grew up and made a fortune. "
Liu Xiang said, "Mom, you forgot a lot of things, but I didn't. For example, when I was young, on winter mornings, you always got up early and waited for me to wake up, just to let me sleep for a few more minutes; And every time I have a bad appetite, you always try your best to change my food and let me eat more ... You have worked hard for me, in fact, a lot. " My son's words lit up my mother's heart like a lamp.
Family is wealth.
For wealth, Liu Xiang himself didn't have much pursuit. His favorite sentence is: "money is not the only thing."
In Liu Xiang's mind, family is his real wealth. Looking back on the hurdles, Liu Xiang said that his father gave him the most support. "At that time, my family was opposed, and only my father agreed. It should be said that every gold medal of mine embodies his hard work. " Now in Liu Xiang's mind, I often see my father coming back and forth to meet me at the training base again and again. Now every time I go home, Liu Xiang will deliberately chat with my father for a while and gossip about my parents. "Dad doesn't talk much about hurdles, but he likes to tell me something about being a man. On my growth path, he helped me overcome many difficulties. "
It is because of this family love that Liu Xiang can gallop on the runway so unscrupulously. Liu Xiang said that even if you want to find a girlfriend in the future, the first condition is to ask the other party to honor their parents. Yan xiaoxian
