Qiao Hong
On November 21, 1968, Qiao Hong was born in Wuhan City, Hubei Province. His father Qiao Dayou and his mother are engaged in jobs that are not related to sports. In 1975, a "table tennis craze" arose in the country. Wang Deqian, a physical education teacher at Nandanfang Primary School in Wuhan, organized a table tennis team at the school to select Qiao Hong, who had just entered the school.
It happened that Dong Weiwen was transferred from Wuhan Automobile Manufacturing Factory to teach and served as the school’s table tennis team coach. Qiao Hong has a well-proportioned figure and fast acceptance. Dong Weiwen is optimistic about her.
In order to exercise Qiao Hong's lower limb strength and pace, Dong Weiwen applied chalk gray on Qiao Hong's heel and asked her to tiptoe to train. If Coach Dong finds chalk dust on the ground and Qiao Hong's heels fall to the ground, she will be punished to run.
Qiao Hong's academic performance is very good and she can be admitted to a foreign language school. The teacher suggested that she give up playing basketball, so her parents no longer let Qiao Hong play basketball. She missed training for several days in a row. However, when the coach Dong Wei and Huang Qingwei came to the door and worked as Qiao Dayou and his wife, Qiao Hong continued to practice football.

In 1980, 12-year-old Qiao Hong was selected into the Hubei Provincial Table Tennis Team, and Feng Mengya served as the head coach of the women's team. Feng Mengya was born in Wuxi, Jiangsu in 1947. She served as the coach of the Zhejiang Table Tennis Team and was later transferred to the Hubei Table Tennis Team to coach. Feng Mengya became famous all over the country for training three world champions, Qiao Hong, Chen Jing and Hu Xiaoxin. Later, she was promoted to the deputy head of the Hubei Provincial Sports Committee.
However, when Qiao Hong first joined the provincial team, her performance was not good. She lacks a sense of ruthlessness in her bones, has no clear requirements for her grades, and calculates wherever she plays, and often loses games in competitions.
The neighbors in the community were talking behind their backs: Lao Qiao's daughter is playing basketball, but her grades are not very good. Qiao Dayou and his wife were worried about their daughter's future and were very anxious.
When Qiao Hong came home on Sunday, her parents looked at her with depression, which hurt Qiao Hong's heart like a thorn. Since then, Qiao Hong has a goal in playing basketball and soon became the main player of the team. Together with Chen Jing and Hu Xiaoxin, he is known as the "Three Musketeers of Hubei".
In 1986, Chen Jing and Hu Xiaoxin were selected into the national team, while Qiao Hong was still in the provincial team. Qiao Hong was 18 years old at this time. She could not enter the national team at this age and basically couldn't see any future.
Qiao Hong
In November 1987, the 6th National Games was held in Guangzhou. Qiao Hong was about to retire and find a job after finishing the National Games . But it was this National Games that completely changed Qiao Hong's fate. She successfully reached the finals after fighting against the enemy, and eventually lost to Jiao Zhimin and won the runner-up of the women's singles. After the National Games, Qiao Hong was selected for the national team.
At that time, the national table tennis women's team gathered many world champions such as He Zhili, Jiao Zhimin, Dai Lili, Geng Lijuan, etc. Qiao Hong, who had just joined the team, did not have many opportunities to participate.
After the Seoul Olympics in 1988, the national table tennis women's team was greatly replaced, and young players such as Qiao Hong, Deng Yaping, Gao Jun, and Chen Zihe were pushed to the front.
In November 1988, Qiao Hong visited Moscow , Italy, and Romania with the team, losing only to Li Fanji of Han Xian, and won the Romanian Open championship. The competition among the national table tennis team is fierce, and everyone is under great pressure.
1989, the 40th World Table Tennis Championships was held in Dortmund, Germany. Some teammates were particularly afraid that Qiao Hong would squeeze him out.
Youth Deng Yaping
Success Results Qiao Hong and Deng Yaping did not participate in the team competition, but only participated in the women's singles and women's doubles competitions. The four players in the team competition are: Chen Jing, Li Huifen, Chen Zihe and Hu Xiaoxin. They did not disappoint everyone's expectations and won the girls' team championship as they wished.

Now 33 years have passed, and Qiao Hong still remembers many of the details of the competition. At that time, the team gave each person $30 in pocket money, and Qiao Hong was reluctant to spend it.
She likes to drink yogurt, she has to drink two cups at a time, and also mixes walnut kernels and raisins into the yogurt to eat. During the team competition, Qiao Qiao went to the scene every day to cheer, and every time he slapped his palms red. After the single event of
started, Qiao Hong first cooperated with Deng Yaping to win the women's doubles championship, and then won the women's singles gold medal. At that time, there were 205 women's singles contestants, and the competition was very fierce. Qiao Hong defeated famous players such as Chen Danlei, Wang Xiaoming, Xuan Jinghe and others one after another, and entered the finals to compete with North Korean player Li Fanji for the championship.
Li Fanji (left)
Li Fanji was born in 1968. He holds the racket with his left hand horizontally, has the forehand reverse glue, and has a backhanded birth. Fast attack combined with arc circle play. She has a tenacious will and a fierce and fierce ball game. She was the main opponent of the national table tennis women's team at that time.
The national table tennis women's team is popular with this saying: Whoever can defeat Li Fanji will be able to play the main force. In the 1989 Dortmund World Table Tennis Championships, Li Fanji defeated Chen Jing and entered the finals.
Li Fanji is not tall, has a big defensive loophole, and has a single reception and serve. Under the guidance of head coach Zeng Chuanqiang, Qiao Hong broke through Li Fanji's forehand and mobilized her to run all over the field. Soon Qiao Hong won two consecutive games and Li Fanji won one game back. In the fourth game, Qiao Hong fell behind 3:9 at one point.
At this time, Qiao Hong's good advantage in serving appeared. Li Fanji either made a direct mistake or returned the opportunity ball. Qiao Hong won the fourth game again, thus defeating the opponent 3:1 and winning the Ji Geister Cup.
Qiao Hong and Cai Zhenhua
won the women's singles and women's doubles championships for the first time in the World Table Tennis Championships. Qiao Hong is impressive. Team leader Yao Zhenxu joked with her: Where did the country girl come from? She won the championship like this? Qiao Hong pursed her lips and laughed.
After returning to China, Qiao Hong called her parents to announce the good news with a magnetic card. Her parents said she had known it from the newspaper, and the neighborhood committee even went to the door of her house to set off firecrackers.
At that time, the organizing committee rewarded Qiao Hong with a Philips color TV, which was only 14 inches; while the men's singles champion Waldnell 's color TV was 29 inches. Although the color TV Qiao Hong got was small in size, she had to pay a tax of 500 yuan. She didn't have that much money and borrowed 200 yuan from her teammates.
After returning to China, Qiao Hong spent another 200 yuan to restructure the system, and then kept it in the dormitory to watch. Later, Qiao Hong retired and the color TV was moved away by the staff.
In April 1991, the 41st World Table Tennis Championships was held in Chiba, Japan. The team competition played by Qiao Hong, Deng Yaping, Gao Jun and Chen Zihe unexpectedly lost to the North Korean and South Korean team and won the runner-up of the women's team. Qiao Hong also won the bronze medal in women's singles; the women's doubles, who was partnered with Deng Yaping, lost to teammates Gao Jun/Chen Zihe, and won the silver medal in women's doubles.
Qiao Hong
Qiao Hong rarely loses foreign battles, but when fighting with her teammates, she often can't hide her face and lacks a domineering attitude that no one else can dominate her.
She lost to Deng Yaping many times in singles matches, which is also one of the reasons.
She was also very content with the second place because Deng Yaping practiced too hard and she had to practice one more hour every day than her on average.
Qiao Hong respects Deng Yaping, but doesn’t envy her, because Deng Yaping only has table tennis in her life, which is too monotonous.

In July 1992, the world-renowned Barcelona Olympics kicked off, and Qiao Hong went out with the team. She collaborated with Deng Yaping and defeated her teammate Gao Jun/Chen Zihe 3-1 in the final and won the women's doubles championship.
Women's Singles Finals started between Qiao Hong and Deng Yaping, but Qiao Hong lost to Deng Yaping 1:3 and won the women's singles silver medal. Qiao Hong and Deng Yaping are called the Gemini stars of the national table tennis women's team by fans.
At this time, Qiao Hong was 24 years old and had a crush on him. He was Zhou Xingjiang of the men's team of the national table tennis team. Zhou Xingjiang is from Tianjin, the same age as Qiao Hong, and comes from the Tianjin table tennis team. He has a tall figure and a pair of deep and melancholy eyes. He is a handsome guy who is pleasing to the eye.
Due to the large number of talents of the national table tennis men's team, Zhou Xingjiang did not enter the main level and was an ordinary athlete, with a big gap with Qiao Hong in his career.
This has also become an obstacle in Zhou Xingjiang's heart. He clearly likes Qiao Hong, but he has no courage to show it. Qiao Hong also likes Zhou Xingjiang and has been waiting for him to give him the message of love. But Zhou Xingjiang is always close and distant, which gives Qiao Hong the troubles and sorrow of youth.
Qiao Hong
After the Barcelona Olympics, Qiao Hong bravely made Zhou Xingjiang come out. She asked: Do you hate me? Zhou Xingjiang shook his head: There is a gap in our careers, which is not suitable.
Qiao Hong said: I never value external things, I only pay attention to inner feelings. Qiao Hong's courage and purity moved Zhou Xingjiang. He no longer escaped and boldly expressed his love. The two fell in love. This is each other's pure and beautiful first love, and both Qiao Hong and Zhou Xingjiang cherish it very much.
In 1993, the national table tennis team made adjustments, and Zhou Xingjiang returned to the Tianjin table tennis team. In 1994, Zhou Xingjiang retired and went to a table tennis club in Wakayama City, Japan to play.
In October 1994, Qiao Hong participated in the Asian Games in Hiroshima, Japan. Zhou Xingjiang also rushed over to see her and cheered for her. So the love between the two spread, and everyone in the circle was optimistic about the table tennis couple.
In May 1995, the 43rd World Table Tennis Championships was held in Tianjin. Zhou Xingjiang deliberately flew back to Tianjin from Japan to organize a group of relatives and friends to cheer for Qiao Hong.In front of the "in-law family", Qiao Hong performed exceptionally well, winning the women's group and women's doubles championship in one fell swoop and the women's singles runner-up.

The women's singles gold medal battle with Deng Yaping, Qiao Hong lost 2:3. But she felt that this was her best performance because she had the support of love.
In order to follow love, in September 1995, Qiao Hong signed a two-year contract with Japan's Panasonic Electric Company to represent the company in domestic competitions in Japan.
After of the Atlanta Olympics in 1996, Qiao Hong retired and went to Japan to play. However, due to the lack of separation, differences in personality, and the asymmetry of fame and career, Qiao Hong and Zhou Xingjiang's love is not harmonious. In 1998, the two broke up reluctantly.
First love is unforgettable, Qiao Hong feels hurt in her heart. In 2000, Qiao Hong left Japan and returned to China. Two years have passed, Qiao Hong is calm on the surface, but her inner trauma has not healed yet.

In September 2001, Qiao Hong entered the School of Physical Sciences, South China Normal University, and obtained a bachelor's degree. In 2003, Wang Nan's condition in fell into a downturn. She asked the team to let Qiao Hong take over as her coach, and the relevant leaders respected her.

Wang Nan
Shortly, Qiao Hong came to the national table tennis team to coach. She treats Wang Nan as her sister and a relative, listens to her talk patiently and helps her share her worries. Wang Nan was in a good mood and devoted more time and energy to training, so Wang Nan retired after finishing at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
At that time, while Qiao Hong coached in the national table tennis team, she entered Beijing Sports University to study for graduate school. After leaving the national table tennis team, Qiao Hong served as assistant dean of Guangdong Sports Technology College and director of Table Tennis Management Center.
Time is like water, which has long washed away the pain of Qiao Hong's first love. She longs to embrace love again. In 2010, when Qiao Hong was 42 years old, Wang Nan introduced her boyfriend to her. Qiao Hong also rushed to Beijing for a blind date, and they both felt good.
When the relationship between the two gradually drifts towards love, the real problem arises: Qiao Hong cannot give up her career and come to Beijing, and the man cannot quit his job and go to Guangzhou. So the flowers of love have not yet bloomed, and the world has broken down.
Qiao Hong
At this age, Qiao Hong was discouraged and lazy about love and decided to be alone until old. Zhou Xingjiang has already got married and started a family, and still owns his own table tennis club in Shizuoka, Japan. In 2014, Jilin Zhongzhou Cable Table Tennis Club was established, and Zhou Xingjiang was invited to return to China to serve as head coach, and trained top players such as , Wang Manyu, and .
Qiao Hong's personal problems became a heart disease of her parents and also touched the hearts of her friends. Everyone encouraged her to believe in love and look for love.
In 2019, under the introduction of a friend, Qiao Hong met her current husband. The other party settled in Guangzhou, two years older than Qiao Hong, and experienced emotional setbacks.
He was once a fan of Qiao Hong and he respected and admired Qiao Hong very much. In 2018, 50-year-old Qiao Hong got married and happily married herself.
Coach Qiao Hong gave face-to-face teaching Jiyi
After the news of Qiao Hong's marriage spread, people around him sent their blessings. Qiao Hong and her husband are both middle-aged. The couple are mature and steady. They know how to leave private space and face for each other; they know how to advance and retreat, and never force each other to do things they don’t like.
Therefore, Qiao Hong has never had any face with her husband in the past 4 years of marriage. Qiao Hong is the first marriage and longs for her own baby, but the baby has not yet come to them. Qiao Hong’s biggest wish now is to realize her mother’s dream.
