At a city sports meeting, Zhang Guowei's outstanding performance attracted the coach's attention. At that time, he said half jokingly, "Zhang Guowei's physical condition is better than practicing high jump".
As the saying goes, a casual teasing actually started Zhang Guowei's high jump career.
Zhang Guowei's height is two meters, so there is no doubt that Zhang Guowei has the most advantage in the high jump. The height that others reached with great efforts may only be the result of his gentle leap.

In the post-match interview, Zhang Guowei didn't seem to be depressed by the loss of the game. He is still optimistic.
In the face of media inquiries, he calmly said: "I have to practice when I go back."
This is the mentality of the strong. Failure is not an excuse, but a matter of determination. Today's failure is the prelude to tomorrow's success. Zhang Guowei's idol is Zhu Jianhua. He posted a picture of Zhu Jianhua on the court on the bedroom wall.
This famous high jumper in the last century has become the spiritual totem of this junior high school high jumper, leading him to his own day in our life.

(3) Participating in the Olympic Games
On August 6th, Zhang Guowei participated in the men's high jump qualifying competition of the London Olympic Games, and his performance was seriously abnormal. He failed in three consecutive attempts to jump 2.26 meters, and was finally eliminated with a score of 2.2 1 meter, and missed the final.
At this point, Zhang Guowei's 20 12 tour has basically come to an end. In this year, Zhang Guowei not only achieved the best results in his career, but also failed to qualify for the London Olympic Games.
In a word, there are joys and sorrows, and there are ups and downs, but for Zhang Guowei, rain and thunder are all blessings. He has been moving forward and never stops.

This is far from over. At the World Athletics Championships held in Beijing, he won the second place with the same result. This is an epoch-making award, and he became a hero.
The future of China's high jump depends entirely on this young man. It seems that the dawn of China's high jump is coming.
However, fate makes people laugh. Under the sustained cheers, Zhang Guowei's competitive state is quietly declining, as if he can only stop there. The optimistic boy who can create one miracle after another is gradually disappearing, and his potential seems to have been exhausted.
Unwilling to sink, he practiced hard and took unprecedented determination to train, but the goddess of luck had left him.
High-intensity training didn't make his performance return to the peak, and he made a breakthrough, but only made his body hurt constantly. Accompanied by physical pain, the spirit also suffered a major blow.

This is almost a devastating blow to a professional athlete. Physical and psychological torture, Zhang Guowei was finally crushed. In 2020, he announced his decision to retire on social platforms.
Since then, his career has come to an end. With the disappearance of Zhang Guowei from public view, everyone deeply regrets and laments the fall of this talented new star in China sports.
However, in 20021year, King Zhang Guowei returned after a year's rest, announced his comeback and started his new career.
Many people are surprised by this, but this is Zhang Guowei, who always treats life with a smile. He never gets depressed, never hesitates, and sets sail for success.
