Eternal youth, eternal possibility, James Zheng is a person who refuses to give up any possibility.
/kloc-When he was 0/4 years old, James Zheng, who was studying in Dianliu No.1 Middle School, first came into contact with the climbing car. "I found that bicycles can still play like this for the first time." The boy who used to play roller skating fell in love with the rock climbing car. Since then, quancheng square's corridors and stairs have become James Zheng's secret places after school.
Starting from the most basic movements such as the rear wheel standing and jumping, I fell down and got up, and my vest was wet and dry, and dry and wet-I followed my son's mother James Zheng to discover my son's secret in quancheng square, and saw James Zheng fall down dozens of times in two hours, and the sweat soaked the whole pair of shoes. "I have seen people who planted crops earlier sweat." James Zheng's mother, who was "frightened" by her son, immediately made a decision and took out 2,800 yuan to buy her first regular car for her son Mozhen, who used "fake goods".
A master of extreme sports, no doubt, must also be a master of superior self-control ability-sweat and pain, extraordinary physical strength and perseverance, firm training time ... no self-control and perseverance. Ten years later, James Zheng, wearing a cockscomb and camouflage clothes, seemed to be fashionable and rebellious, but in fact he was introverted, determined and kept his word.
By the time Jin 'an No.2 Middle School was promoted to an international second-class athlete, James Zheng was very proficient in obstacle cycling technology. He not only became a sponsor of Amigues's bicycle, but also often participated in off-campus commercial performances.
"I am a lucky person, and I realized my childhood dream in my early twenties." In 2007, James Zheng, who was studying in Beijing, ushered in the peak of his career in obstacle cycling practice. For the first time, he served as the captain of China's national team of obstacle cycling, went to Japan to participate in the World Championship of Obstacle Cycling, ranked 40th among more than 3,000 competitors, and became one of the few Asian obstacle cycling masters.
It was also in that competition that James Zheng saw the infinite prospect of obstacle cycling. James Zheng, keen and resolute, returned to Jinan and founded the Su Jia Obstacle Cycling Life Museum in the North District of Yanshan Community, acting as an agent for bicycles and equipment.
Then, James Zheng founded her own fashion brand Maria and owned her own fashion brand clothing store. Incorporate young people's fashion ideas and design clothes. "Do my camouflage clothes and jeans look good? I designed them myself. " Besides, James Zheng, who likes to keep crawling pets, keeps dead leaf turtles, golden horned frogs, snapping turtles, spiders, lizards and crocodiles in his shop. These small animals are also the inspiration for his clothing design. "Everything has another side. For example, I seem to be rebellious, but it is actually very reliable. " James Zheng said with a smile. Sure enough, he took out a T-shirt with a crocodile pattern, with fierce teeth on the front and crocodile tears and kisses on the back. "It means don't just look at the surface of things."
"I like to design my own destiny at will." James Zheng, whose family is not rich, has been constantly changing his trajectory, from a punk teenager with a comb and camouflage clothes, listening to a "flower band" skipping on the stage and singing "The future owner must be us" to a "reliable youth" who owns three obstacle bicycle monopoly chains, a trendy clothing store and Shang Yan and runs his hobby into a career. (This article Source: Qilu Weekly) Every evening, when the sun goes down, Black Tiger Spring is particularly lively. With a burst of applause, I saw a "bike" controlled by a young man of about 20 years old. First lift the front wheel, and then tilt the car 70 degrees to the ground. At first glance, it looks like a "flying horse" on the calendar. Then, the rear wheel bounced twice. Suddenly, the young man gave a hard push, and the wheel "flew" onto the step half a meter high. At this time, the onlookers could not help applauding the scene just now. The reporter looked at it carefully. This bicycle is unusual. Without a seat, the front tire looks particularly thick, and the rear tire is thicker than the front tire, just like a motorcycle. Xiao Liu, who just showed off his car skills, told reporters that this kind of car called climbing car is quite popular in recent years and is an extreme sport.
Just then, Xiao Li, who came with Xiao Liu, was going to show off his skills in front of everyone. First, he rode around the crowd twice to warm up. Then, on the steps one and a half meters high in the park, people and cars stand upright, and then leap and land. But in a second or two, Xiao Li jumped from one end of the obstacle to the other. Because the speed was too fast, the onlookers had completed a perfect jump before taking pictures. The wonderful moment is too short, and many viewers are not satisfied.
In the cheers of the onlookers, the boys couldn't resist the desire to show off, and took turns to go into battle, lifting the front wheel, exerting their strength, leaping to the ground, and doing the same action, everyone tried their best to be perfect. It's the beginner's turn, Xiao Wang. As he has just entered the business, he seems a little nervous. He rode a large climbing car and warmed up in the same place. The front wheel is lifted frequently, but due to technical instability, he often can't hold on for a few seconds, and the out-of-control tire falls back to the ground. "I haven't practiced this as long as they have, so the technology is still unstable." Although not completely sure, Xiao Wang insisted on accepting the challenge. He was a little excited when he finally landed smoothly. "Dare to meet challenges and surpass yourself, which is also the spirit of extreme sports." The boys performed energetically and the audience watched with interest. During the chat, Captain James Zheng told reporters that they often learn from each other's driving skills. Black Tiger Spring, Hero Mountain Square and quancheng square are all their "land of sword". "It turns out that many of our players are introverts, and it is even more impossible to perform a program in public. Climbing cars have changed many people's personalities, allowing us to find ourselves, gain confidence and gain happiness. " At the request of the team members, James Zheng, who won the international prize, began to perform. The same action seemed easy for him, and the perfect performance ushered in bursts of applause. Mototrial, also known as obstacle cycling race, evolved from motorcycle, and riders rode bicycles to cross obstacles. Captain James Zheng introduced that climbing cars became popular in Europe as early as the end of1970s, and now they have become a mainstream sport abroad. James Zheng was a junior high school student when he first came into contact with a climbing car. At that time, he saw several people playing climbing cars in quancheng square. James Zheng, who likes challenges, gave up skateboarding and turned to rock climbing skills. At that time, James Zheng's skateboarding skills were among the best in the province. "At that time, at most a dozen people played climbing cars. 10 years have passed, and now the team has grown to more than 200 people. " The reporter learned that among many contestants, besides James Zheng, many others have won the rankings of various competitions held at home and abroad.
James Zheng has participated in many international competitions and has been practicing rock climbing for more than ten years. He can tell the exact height of a wall or a stone at a glance. James Zheng recalled: "When I first entered the business, cars were very expensive at that time. At first, I played ordinary bicycles, and later I played modified mountain bikes. Later, the whole family scraped together a sum of money and finally bought a professional rock climbing car. " James Zheng told reporters that it will cost at least 2,000 yuan to assemble a mountain bike. This kind of climbing car is the most basic, that is, entry-level, about 2 1kg. The more advanced the climbing car, the lighter it is. Generally, climbing cars with a weight of 15kg are the lowest15,000 yuan, and some cars are as high as 40,000-50,000 yuan. However, the conditions for climbing cars are much better than those in James Zheng. In his team, some players are only 12 years old, but it's good to play the climbing car. The reporter found that each team member has his own unique climbing car. Only after learning about it did he know that climbing car's parts are detachable and can be DIY according to his own preferences.
It is understood that climbing cars, as an extreme sport, have been very popular among young people in the past two years. According to James Zheng, most of the team members are young people, 1/3 have already joined the work, and the oldest one is only in his early 30s. Many athletes used to play outdoors. After getting in touch with climbing cars, they all became interested in performing climbing cars more than walking, and fell in love with this sport. Playing the climbing car is not very demanding on the environment, as long as there are stones or high terraces in the streets and lanes, or anywhere.
"In fact, the purpose of exercise is to relax yourself. I used to like to travel to relieve stress. Now I feel that climbing a car is very interesting and endless. " During the interview, many climbers said that climbing can not only help them learn some skills, but also help them understand the true meaning of life-perseverance, ability to resist oppression, endurance and sense of time ... James Zheng, a 25-year-old boy, is not the earliest climbing fan in Jinan, but he is recognized as a big brother in the circle. This big player has been obsessed with climbing cars since then. By the time he was promoted to Jinan No.2 Middle School as an international second-class athlete, his climbing skills were very skilled, and he not only became a sponsor of Amigues's bicycle, but also often participated in commercial performances outside the school.
Due to the large amount of exercise, I was in the stage of rapid physical growth. At that time, James Zheng had an amazing appetite. "I clearly remember that when 16 years old, it cost more than 20 yuan to eat a meal at school, which shocked the family." James Zheng joked that his family has never been rich, which may be related to his great appetite. "Poor food."
"I am a lucky person, and I realized my childhood dream in my early twenties." In 2007, James Zheng, who was studying in Beijing, ushered in the peak of his career of climbing a car. For the first time, he served as the captain of the China national team and went to Japan to participate in the World Climbing Championship. Ranked 40th among more than 3,000 contestants, becoming one of the few Asian climbers. "At that time, after entering the semi-finals, the hotel that returned to stay was warmly welcomed by Japanese friends. They are particularly proud that Asians can enter the semi-finals. "
Just after that competition, James Zheng strengthened his determination to devote his life to rock climbing. Back in Jinan, he founded the Su Jia Obstacle Bicycle Life Museum in the north area of Yanshan Community, which, in his own words, is "the largest professional obstacle bicycle shop in China at present". James Zheng quietly told reporters that on September 10 Teacher's Day, James Zheng visited the primary school teacher in the morning, visited the junior high school teacher in the morning, and put up a big banner at noon to congratulate the senior high school teacher on a happy holiday.
Jingkun Zhang, a native of Qingdao, has just been promoted to Shandong Normal University. "I came to Jinan to study, just to practice riding a bike with James Zheng." Zhang Jingkun made no secret of his "impure motive" of coming to Jinan to study in university. September 12 is the day when the freshmen of Shandong normal university start school on 20 10. Zhang Jingkun arrived in Jinan very early, but his first place to report for duty was not a university, but a bicycle shop in James Zheng.
"I have his bike now." James Zheng told reporters that a few years ago, he met Zhang Jingkun, who was obsessed with rock climbing cars, when he participated in a promotion activity of rock climbing cars in Qingdao, and forged an indissoluble bond from then on. "He is nearly 1.9 meters tall and has good strength. Now he can bounce to the platform of 1.3 meters on the flat ground. " In the national climbing car competition held in Rizhao, Jingkun Zhang won the second place in the newcomer group. The ancients said, "No rules can make Fiona Fang." Without discipline, development is impossible. In the circle of friends, James Zheng summed up four unwritten catch-ups. "They are all based on years of training experience. Although it will not be mandatory, it can't do these four things. It's hard to be an excellent rock climber! "
Rule number one: no smoking, no drinking. "In climbing training, drivers often need to ride on a high platform about 1.3 meters and cross a deep ditch 3 meters away. Uneven breathing may lead to the defeat of the whole game. " James Zheng said that the normal track is about 50 meters, and drivers need to finish the race within 2 minutes. Once they smoke or drink, their lung capacity will not reach, so it is impossible to complete the required track within the specified time.
Catch-2: Wear shorts and trousers all year round. James Zheng told reporters that climbing car is a dangerous riding sport, sometimes it is trained on natural rocks, and the protective measures are weak, so there are strict requirements for the driver's skills and dress.
It is understood that in China, during training, cyclists often get injured because their pants are stuck by wheels, and the lesson is very profound. It is in view of the lessons of many injuries that the cycling circle in Jinan gradually formed. No matter in competition or training, it is an unwritten rule to try not to wear pants but only shorts all year round.
Catch-3: One person practices driving, while others watch and avoid rushing in. Different from many other sports, rock climbers don't train in group mode, but practice alone and others watch. James Zheng told reporters that because of many obstacles, drivers need the encouragement and guidance of friends more than other athletes. "In view of this, we have gradually formed a method of practicing cars by one person and everyone watching. There are encouragement and suggestions, which are very helpful for each driver's own technical improvement. "
Catch-4: Collect garbage after training. This kind of catching-up has nothing to do with the training technology of climbing cars, but it has something to do with the reputation left by cycling circles. "Losing face is a big deal." James Zheng said that places where riders often train, such as Black Tiger Spring and Hero Mountain, are mostly scenic spots with more tourists. Cyclists often attract tourists during training. There are more people onlookers, and it is inevitable that tourists will make garbage such as beverage bottles and ice cream sticks. "If you leave a pile of garbage after each training, not only will the environmental sanitation department of the scenic spot be unhappy, but the public's impression of our sport will also be greatly reduced. Therefore, after each training, everyone will concentrate on picking up all kinds of garbage made by themselves and tourists, which has become a hard military rule in the cycling circle. " (This article Source: Shandong Business Daily) Because the car is there, everyone has reason to believe that the wildest dreams are always intertwined with the deepest love. Only in this way can we collide with the groundbreaking Genesis. The story of James Zheng and cars is like George Mallory and Mount Everest in the 20th century. There is no reason, just because the car is there.
The name James Zheng is no stranger to readers who often read magazines. James Zheng once occupied a large space in all the fashion magazines published in Jinan. This is the darling of print media, full of camera sense, playing fashion, playing domineering, and an out-and-out trend leader.
The 85-year-old man, like all young people with money, is engaged in luxury activities in the eyes of ordinary people, such as clubbing, playing golf and sunbathing. The difference is that he will organize a group of young people to visit children in welfare homes and disabled veterans in Invalides, and they will be released in the spring ... This is a bit strange, because in the concept of ordinary people, he has more than 5 million Ferrari cars at the age of 28. This person must be a rich second generation or not. How can he understand human suffering and why should he show it?
After meeting James Zheng himself, this preconceived conclusion was completely overturned.
Children who are self-reliant and "against the sky"
"Going against the Heaven" is a word with high usage rate in James Zheng. As the title of the article, I just want to say that everything can't be determined blindly. For example, we always think that a family with problems will give birth to children with problems, and these problems will eventually become various incentives, which will be reflected on the road of growth and hinder the normal development of children's psychological and behavioral status. The same is true. Examples of family tragedies evolving into social tragedies are always staged around us.
If you want to really understand him, you can't bypass him and his mountain bike.
/kloc-at the age of 0/4, James Zheng first came into contact with the climbing car. "I found that bicycles can still play like this for the first time." This stubborn child, a cow, was born with great strength and fell in love with the climbing car at first sight. After school, quancheng square became his favorite place.
James Zheng said that there were two women, mother and grandmother, who had the greatest influence on her. The dearest mother, from an early age, felt that her son was not smart enough. This kind of cleverness is also directly reflected in the practice of climbing a car, and others can learn it once or twice. James Zheng needs to practice n times to master the essentials. What he paid was more sweat and blood. Once he soaked four clothes with sweat a day, because he knew that only by working hard, only by constantly working hard, could he get what he wanted. In order to encourage her son, the mother printed four big characters and posted them in James Zheng's room, saying, "Stupid birds fly first". Speaking of this, James Zheng smiled: "My mother thought I was stupid since I was a child, but even now she doesn't think I am smarter than others." .
Climbing car is an extreme sport, which requires several times more physical strength, perseverance and self-control than ordinary people. In those days, few partners who practiced with James Zheng persisted today. James Zheng's stupid bird has already flown. When he was promoted to the second middle school of Jida University as an international second-class athlete, he had already become a sponsor of Amigues's bicycle, and Shang Yan continued.
Proud and kind Jinan children
A sports car may be something that can make men's hormones explode instantly except women.
James Zheng's fate with cars in this life is impossible to analyze. We only know that it took him only six years to transition from a two-wheeled climbing car to a world-class sports car Ferrari.
This guy looks arrogant, but he likes tea ceremony. Fashion lovers opened the only professional bicycle shop in Jinan in an old community; When Ferrari's dream came true, this fine pony didn't have a good saddle, only a piece of cloth next to the bicycle shop sheltered it from the wind and rain. From these appearances alone, children's behavior is undoubtedly a classic contradiction complex. However, the development of everything has a causal relationship.
The car shop opened in the old community because grandma lived here, and this is where he grew up. As long as he is in Jinan, James Zheng will have lunch with his 80-year-old grandmother. There is no unified garden design in this old community.
In many places, fences have been built and vegetables such as kidney beans and cucumbers have been planted. Half-new fitness equipment is covered with dried bedding, full of old city life ... what do you think, this is not a good place to open a shop. However, this "rebellious" Jinan child opened a shop here for reasons related to reality and pride. "I just want people to know that I can drive a Ferrari in such a community and make my neighbors proud of watching me grow up."
This deep sense of pride has always permeated James Zheng's life. As the chairman of the first top luxury car club in Jinan, James Zheng participated in many sports car activities. After a long time, he found a strange phenomenon. Many drivers in second-and third-tier cities are ashamed to admit their real addresses and choose big cities such as Beijing and Shanghai. James Zheng was very confused. On arrival in Shanghai, the host introduced "Mr. James Zheng from Beijing". When James Zheng took the stage to speak, he said a sentence to correct the news: I am from Jinan, and I improvised a Jinan dialect. "If you look down on the place where you were born and raised, who will respect it?"
In order to let the newly bought Ferrari hang the brand of Lu A, I paid more than 10,000 yuan in cash to myself. But he thinks the money is well spent, because Lu A represents Jinan, and this little red horse (Ferrari) only belongs to Jinan.
Because Ferrari is there.
James Zheng is also very special in realizing Ferrari's dream. He abandoned the real needs and chose the latter between his house and his dream. Like all mothers, James Zheng's mother wants her son to have a home and a family. James Zheng is indifferent to this, because "everything will come naturally, and I will have what I should have".
When asked why he has a soft spot for Ferrari, he gave a special answer. James Zheng believes that Ferrari not only has the most authentic sports car pedigree, but also can best interpret the positive energy sports car. The big red body and the yellow logo are two colors of the national flag of China. The galloping horse is a portrayal of China's new generation of strength. As the president of CCC Automobile Culture Club, Ferrari is definitely the best choice.
Many people who have super running will stay in the stage of choice and possession. When supercar becomes a thing in the bag, its greatest value is as a mutual display and comparison between friends and riders. "Look, I have this supercar, too." James Zheng, the "rebel", has his own special definition of Ferrari. He does not hesitate to regard this expensive supercar as a wedding car or other sports car. In James Zheng's words, "I have never regarded Ferrari as a car. He is my partner. I don't want to buy it back and put it there. I want to maximize its value. Only in this way can we work together to create a better future!
There is a "porcelain doll" (patient with brittle bone disease) in Jinan. My greatest wish is to see a sports car. When James Zheng learned about it, he drove there, not only letting the "porcelain doll" see the sports car, but also letting him get on it. A friend in the biker team divorced, and the 5-year-old child has been depressed. After learning that this child is a huge Ferrari fan, James Zheng traveled halfway across Jinan just to make this little Ferrari fan smile. The friend didn't understand, "You drive a Ferrari just to coax children. Is this too expensive? " James Zheng doesn't think so. "No matter what is valuable, it is also valuable to do one thing. I am happy to realize other people's dreams. ".
For this 28-year-old young man, the road ahead is still very long, and how much wind and rain there is in the world is unknown. But all this is insignificant in front of this Jinan baby who claims to be able to tear down the south wall. Because of his beloved Ferrari, the most colorful spiritual culture of this super-running aristocrat has already been implanted in his soul: "Let me gallop between heaven and earth"!
Come on, Jinan boy driving a sports car! (This article Source: Beyond Magazine)
