"South Great Wall" Xu Yunli: Retired as a teacher, still single at the age of 34, urged by Lang Ping to find the other half.

In October 214, the 17th World Women's Volleyball Championship started in Italy.

During the match between China and Domini's semi-finals, Xu Yunli, the "South Great Wall" of women's volleyball team, suddenly fell to the ground when she blocked the ball, and the players gathered around and asked anxiously.

The medical staff lifted Xu Yunli onto the stretcher, and she bent her right leg. The intense pain and tearing made her frown, which made people feel very worried.

The doctor judged that Xu Yunli's left ligament was torn and the injury was very serious, and predicted that her sports career would end.

Xu Yunli's mother, Wu Xiulan, went to the hospital to see her on crutches. Later, one mother and daughter lived on the third floor and the other on the fifth floor. Both legs were put in plaster and fixed with braces, and the two "wounded" encouraged each other.

Doctors have predicted the end of Xu Yunli's career more than once, but she still won the world championship in Rio Olympic Games.

In 1987, Xu Yunli was born in Xiasheng Village, Yinxi Town, Fuqing City, Fujian Province. When she was born, she weighed more than eight kilograms, which was a circle bigger than the normal children.

Xu Yunli's father is 1.81 meters, his mother is 1.67 meters, and his brother is much taller than ordinary children. However, Xu Yunli's height is far beyond his parents' expectation.

Since childhood, Xu Yingli has been running around in the fields. Besides being much taller than ordinary children, her strength is also amazing. When she was a few years old, she was able to carry 1 kilograms of well water home from two or three hundred meters.

Once, in just one month, Xu Yunli jumped from 1.56 meters to 1.6 meters. The PE teacher was very happy and thought that this child must be a good prospect for sports.

In this way, Xu Yunli was sent to Fuqing Youth Sports School in the fourth grade.

One year after entering the sports school in 2, Xu Yunli's height grew to 1.9 meters in one breath.

"Wow, no, why is this man so tall?" Xu Yunli's height attracted the attention of women volleyball girls in sports school, when she was only 14 years old.

It's hard to train when playing volleyball. Xu Yunli cut his hair short and made many jokes in his life.

Once when she went to the toilet, a cleaner's aunt stopped her and thought she was a boy: "Why did you come to the ladies' room?"

Sometimes when Xu Yunli was walking on the road, passers-by saw the back that stood out from the crowd, and even rushed to the front to see the true face of Lushan Mountain, only to find that such a tall person turned out to be a girl.

When playing volleyball, Xu Yunli trains very hard.

Because she is tall and relatively uncoordinated, sometimes the coach points out her problems, so she keeps practicing. Xu Yunli is stubborn and keeps practicing when she cries.

In February, 26, Xu Yunli's outstanding height advantage was discovered by Chen Zhonghe, a fellow villager, and she was recruited into the national team. At that time, Xu Yunli's height was 1.96 meters, second only to Zhao Ruirui in China.

Chen Zhonghe thinks that Xu Yunli has great potential, while Xu Yunli cherishes this opportunity and is more "anti-training".

after Xu Yunli was selected for the national team, he has experienced five coaches: Chen Zhonghe, Cai Bin, Wang Baoquan, Yu Juemin and Lang Ping.

Almost every coach will let her play as a substitute first, which is how she plays the role of super substitute in a low-key way.

Lang Ping once told her, "You are the last person who wants to change."

Xue Ming, Wang Yimei, Ma Yunwen and other players in the same period gradually faded out of the national team, but she still stuck to it.

Xu Yunli wants to get her own gold medal, which is also her dream with her mother.

When Xu Yunli was a child, his family was not rich. His parents made a living by growing rice and sugar cane, and a family of four slept in the same bed all the year round.

As Xu Yunli and his brother grew up, their parents decided to borrow money to build a two-story building. After the house was built, they owed a total of 178, yuan. At this time, Xu Yunli had to borrow money to go to the sports school.

Xu Yunli's father, Fan Fangrui, said to his wife, "Don't let the children go to a sports school. How can they live in the future with so many debts?"

Wu Xiulan, the mother, thinks that it is not easy for rural people to find a way out, so they must let their daughters go to sports schools. After all, this is an opportunity.

Wu Xiulan rushed to the county post office on the same day, made an international call to her cousin in Japan for help, and decided to work in Japan. Her cousin remitted a sum of money, so that Xu Yunli could attend the sports school on time.

Wu Xiulan has only a primary school education, so she can only do some hard work in Japan.

Under the introduction of cousin, Wu Xiulan works in a freezing factory in Tokyo, and the temperature of the freezer is from-2 to-4 all year round.

In order to make more money, Wu Xiulan volunteered to work as a porter. In 1998, her monthly income was 15, yen (RMB 5,).

The price in Japan is very high. One catty of rice is from 1 yuan, and three scallions are from 9 yuan. Excluding the expenses such as rent, water and electricity, Wu Xiulan can save 2, yuan per month.

A round-trip plane ticket costs 8, yuan, but Wu Xiulan can't bear the expense. She hasn't returned to China for several years, and her mother and daughter are separated from each other, so she can only make overseas calls.

My mother, Wu Xiulan, has never seen her daughter in Xu Yunli for several years. In July, 21, Xu Yunli's junior team played in Nagoya.

Wu Xiulan stayed up all night excitedly, thinking that she could finally see her daughter, but Wu Xiulan found that Nagoya is 32 kilometers away from Tokyo, and the two cities are quite far away.

Wu Xiulan can only say to her daughter on the phone, "Sorry, mom doesn't have time to see you."

Xu Yunli was very sad when she heard her mother's words, but she still comforted her mother and said, "It doesn't matter, I have to train every day, and I don't have much time to talk when I meet."

"Mom hasn't seen you for years. How tall have you grown?" Xu Yunli asked his daughter.

"It has grown to 1.92 meters." Xu Yunli replied.

Xu Yunli listened to her daughter's words, took a tape measure and marked her height on the wall, which was a head taller than herself.

At this time, Wu Xiulan was very surprised. In the few years since she left, her daughter has completely become a tall girl. She was surprised and sad, and could not help crying.

Xu Yunli's mother is a strong mother. Although she only has a primary school education, she has a belief in her heart. She thinks that her son needs money when he grows up. If her daughter fails to practice volleyball and falls behind in cultural classes, it will be more difficult to find a job. So she wants to save more money for her children.

In June, 22, Wu Xiulan suffered from severe arthritis after working in the cold storage for several years, so she could not continue to work in the cold storage.

After knowing some simple Japanese, Wu Xiulan took several jobs in Japan without telling her family and paid off all her debts.

In August, 24, Wu Xiulan fainted on the ground during the night shift and had to pay a deposit of 3 million yen for admission.

Wu Xiulan didn't come up with so much money, so she just returned to China. Xu Yunli saw that her mother, whom she hadn't seen for so long, was so skinny that she cried with heartache.

She and her father sent her mother to Fuzhou Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital for rescue. After turning the corner, she was never allowed to work in Japan again.

Xu Yunli said to her mother, "I will definitely join the national team and earn money to support my family."

After Xu Yunli was transferred to the national team in 26, she has grown to 1.96 meters. She has been a substitute for several years, and her playing time is not long.

At the London Olympic Games in 212, the women's volleyball team was pushed out of the semi-finals. Xu Yunli felt very hopeless about his future and had the idea of retiring.

The mother encouraged her daughter to say, "Since you joined the national team, I have a dream, hoping to hang a gold medal around my neck one day."

Xu Yunli's mother's words rekindled her gold medal dream. After more than ten years of hard work, she was not only unwilling to win the gold medal, but also sorry for her mother, so she gritted her teeth and stuck to the volleyball court.

My mother "drifted abroad" for 7 years, and her hard work left the root of the disease. At the same time, her daughter struggled on the field and was injured.

In 213, Lang Ping became the head coach of the national team, and Xu Yunli was also included in the national team.

At this time, she is no longer a fledgling girl, and her technical level on the field has reached a high level.

Xu Yunli was assigned as the main force by the coaching staff. She has a very strong defensive ability and is from the south. She is affectionately called the "South Great Wall" by the fans.

On October 4th, 214, Xu Yunli stepped on the foot of the opposing team member when she blocked the ball and fell to the ground, and was carried off by the staff on a stretcher.

After returning to Beijing, she needed ligament repair, and the doctor asserted that her career was coming to an end.

Wu Xiulan, her mother who worked in a refrigeration factory for many years, had a relapse of rheumatoid arthritis, and her left leg could not stand. She came to the hospital in Beijing with crutches.

The mother and daughter live alone on the third floor and one on the fifth floor. The father takes care of the wife and daughter from top to bottom.

At this time, Xu Yunli was already disheartened. When Wu Xiulan saw her daughter's depressed spirit and unfulfilled ambition, she was very sad: "Mom, like you, is also a wounded soldier now. Let's treat her together and see who will recover quickly."

When they couldn't meet each other, they texted each other to encourage each other. Later, the mother and daughter removed the plaster together and started rehabilitation treatment. Two months later, Xu Yunli returned to the national team.

In June 215, in order to prepare for the World Cup at the end of the year, Xu Yunli trained in Zhangzhou, Fujian, and got up at five o'clock every day. The intensive training made her fingers, shoulders and knees tied with gauze.

Xu Yunli once fell down during training, resulting in fracture of the anterior bone of her left leg and rupture of cruciate ligament, and the doctor once again asserted that her career was coming to an end.

At this time, Wu Xiulan, the mother, suffered from stomach bleeding again and was admitted to the hospital with her daughter.

This time, Wu Xiulan simply moved all the pots and pans to the ward and cooked bone soup for her daughter.

Xu Yunli underwent a ligament repair operation for the second time, and the situation was more serious than the previous injury. In two years, Xu Yunli picked up crutches twice.

After the injury, Xu Yunli experienced a long and arduous postoperative rehabilitation. After the exercise, the pain of leg stiffness and pulling accompanied her for hundreds of days and nights.

After 9 months of rehabilitation, Xu Yunli can finally perform some routine actions like a healthy person.

At this time, Xu Yunli's excitement and joy were beyond words, and some photos of his successful recovery were taken.

Sometimes she squatted on the mat and shouted with her hands clenched, and sometimes she lay down on the bed, clenching her fists to make a refueling action.

In March 216, Xu Yunli recovered and returned to the national team for training, only half a year before the Rio Olympic Games.

When she came back from injury, all the coaches were waiting for her downstairs.

After entering the room, Xu Yunli saw coach Lang Ping at first sight. Lang Ping was sitting on Xu Yunli's bed. After seeing her lover, she said with joy, "Oh, Xiaoli is back."

Xu Yunli was so moved by this that she burst into tears. At this moment, when she saw Lang Ping, she felt very cordial, just like seeing her mother.

After the injury, Xu Yunli lived like a year. Thanks to everyone's encouragement, she persisted.

She happily bounces on the training ground sweating, and Lai Yawen, a teaching assistant next to her, often reminds her: "Landing lightly, landing lightly! Ok, let's go, let's go! "

In the Rio Olympic Games on August 17th, 216, during the match between China women's volleyball team and Brazil women's volleyball team, the coach off the field gave Xu Yunli a simple treatment on the shoulder with spray, and Xu Yunli went on stage.

After playing, she went to the block and raised her injured left arm to show that she was in good condition.

In this Olympic Games, Xu Yunli performed brilliantly, with the total score second only to Zhu Ting, which made great contributions to the women's volleyball team's championship.

This is the third time that Xu Yunli participated in the Olympic Games, and finally won the Olympic champion at the age of 29.

After returning to Beijing, Xu Yunli hung the gold medal on her mother's chest. She said to her mother, "Although you are a farmer's mother, the greatest thing in my mind is that you hold up my life."

Mom said happily, "I have been waiting for this day for almost 2 years. I am so happy!"

On August 28th, 217, Xu Yunli played for Fujian when Fujian women's volleyball team played against Shandong women's volleyball team.

When taking off and spiking, Xu Yunli fell to the ground in pain when landing on one foot. On the way to the hospital, Xu Yunli kept crying: "It hurts me, it's broken, I hear the sound!"

After this injury, Xu Yunli left his beloved stadium and had no choice but to retire.

Although Xu Yunli has retired, she has never left the China Women's Volleyball Team.

In the years after her retirement, she followed the China Women's Volleyball Team in the World Championships and the Olympic Games. As an old player, she can use her years of experience to help new players adjust their on-the-spot status.

Many people hoped that she would become the second in Lai Yawen and stay as a coach in the national team. At that time, she had many choices, but Xu Yunli chose to stay at her alma mater.

In 218, Xu Yunli got a master's degree from Fujian Normal University.

In June 219, Xu Yunli officially became a university teacher in Fujian Normal University, teaching volleyball courses in the school.

School leaders, teachers and students held an induction ceremony for her. A red banner was hung on the wall, which read: "Induction Ceremony of China Olympic champion Xu Yunli".

The induction ceremony was held in the school gymnasium, where there was a basketball stand, and the students sat on the floor. The ceremony was simple and grand.

In addition to being a university teacher, Xu Yunli occasionally takes part in some business activities, and also takes part in the filming of Leap films.

On September 25th, 22, the film Leap was released, and Xu Yunli played himself in the film.

On Leap's poster, I wrote this passage: "China women's volleyball team shed blood without tears, and it will not fall behind."

The movie Leap truly restores the daily training scenes of women volleyball players, and reproduces the classic winning scenes of Rio 216 Olympic Games.
