Under the great efforts of the country's construction, our country has long since become a true sports powerhouse. More and more athletes are investing themselves in competitions, taking it as their goal to win glory for the nation. After Xu Haifeng achieved the breakthrough of the first gold medal, even more Olympic champions have emerged. From traditional strong events like diving and table tennis to weak events like track and field and basketball, Chinese athletes are striving to prove themselves. Their competitive spirit has attracted the attention of countless fans, making them stars in the sports world. To be honest, in contemporary Chinese sports, only three athletes can truly be called superstars. The undisputed first is the flying man Liu Xiang. Liu Xiang is a true Chinese with yellow skin and black hair. In the field of athletics, it seems that Asians do not have much advantage and are often discriminated against by international competitors. In international competitions, medals are almost always swept up by athletes from European and American countries, and it is rare to see Asian athletes on the podium. Especially on the Olympic stage, which is the highest level in the sports world, Asians have never won any medals. Despite everyone's doubts, Liu Xiang fought hard on the track and field path. In May 2004, an International Association of Athletics Federations Grand Prix was held in Osaka, Japan, which was the most important match in Liu Xiang's career. At that time, Liu Xiang competed with the American hurdle king Johnson and won the championship with a time…

In nearly a century of Chinese sports history, many outstanding athletes have emerged. They not only reached the pinnacle in their respective fields but also became symbols and sources of pride for Chinese sports. Among them, six athletes stand out like brilliant stars; their achievements and legends have become peaks that are difficult for future generations to surpass. Gao Min In the challenging and captivating sport of diving, Gao Min was undoubtedly the queen of her era. Although her athletic career spanned only seven short years, during this time, she created an unparalleled miracle—she remained undefeated in international competitions, maintaining a perfect record. She was the pioneer of China's "Dream Team" in diving, setting a benchmark for Chinese diving on the world stage with her remarkable performances. Throughout her career, Gao Min won a total of 70 gold medals, a number that leaves many in awe. Regrettably, at the peak of her career at age 22, Gao Min retired due to injuries, leaving a sense of loss among countless spectators. Otherwise, her resume would undoubtedly have been even more glorious. Li Ning When it comes to Li Ning, people might first think of the globally renowned sports brand. However, in the field of gymnastics, Li Ning's accomplishments are even more remarkable. Over his career, he won a total of 17 world championships and over 100 gold medals, a splendid record that has left a significant mark in the history of gymnastics. At the 1984 Olympics, Li Ning single-handedly won three golds, two silvers, and one bronze medal, accounting for one-fifth…

Once known as the "100-meter flying man," he broke world records multiple times and brought glory to his country. Yet, due to an injury that forced him to withdraw from a race, he was branded with the shameful labels of "coward" and "deserter." His 45 trophies could not outweigh the two falls that subjected him to widespread criticism and abuse online, leaving him speechless in the face of such attacks. It was not until 2024 that the true reason behind Liu Xiang's downfall was revealed when his former superior, Li Yuyi, was put on trial for embezzlement, exposing the final truth about Liu's decline! So, what did Li Yuyi do to Liu Xiang that ruined his future? Liu Xiang, the 100-meter flying man, has deeply experienced how terrifying the concept of "only gold medals matter" can be. In the early 20th century, the Chinese people had little interest in track and field events. These sports competitions were largely dominated by black athletes. And our country's strategy was also focused on small and refined sports competitions. It wasn't until 2000 when Liu Xiang won third place at the indoor competition in Lyon, France. This was Liu Xiang's first gold medal and the beginning of Chinese track and field athletes making their mark on the world stage. Afterwards, Liu Xiang became a hot new star in the sports circle. He did not disappoint expectations, continuously striving and improving, starting his brilliance in Asian competitions. Of course, Liu Xiang's breakthrough event was the 2004 Athens Olympics. With a time of 12.91 seconds, he…

Liu Xiang: The Truth Emerges - From National Hero to Scapegoat When it comes to Liu Xiang, he is undoubtedly a shining star in the world of athletics, once so brilliant that it was hard to look away. At the 2004 Athens Olympics, he stunned the world with a time of 12.91 seconds, becoming the first Asian to win a gold medal in a sprint event. That moment was not only a personal triumph but also a legendary chapter in the history of Asian athletics. It's fair to say that the pride and honor he brought us were unparalleled. However, expectations for him soared to unprecedented heights, as if it was taken for granted that he should always win whenever there was a competition. But how can life always be smooth sailing? The 2008 Beijing Olympics marked a turning point for Liu Xiang, or more accurately, a big pitfall. Before the games, he silently endured the sudden pain in his right Achilles tendon, but to avoid disappointing the nation, he kept this hidden from the public. When the preliminary rounds began, due to worsening injuries, he could no longer continue and had to choose to withdraw. Consequently, labels like "wimp" and "deserter" came pouring in. I just want to ask, "Can you handle such immense pressure?" Looking back at the ineffective media and public relations handling at the time, the negative emotions were like adding fuel to the fire! Afterwards, following a long period of surgery and rehabilitation, we witnessed a determined Liu Xiang striving to return to the peak…
