Starting: The path of struggle of returning overseas Chinese youth

Old neighborhoods familiar with the history of Guangzhou Sandy know that in the open space in front of the Dongqiaokou of Shamian and the former French Oriental Banking Bank, it used to be the first outdoor badminton court in the country. As early as the seventeenth year of Guangxu (1891) in the Qing Dynasty, this movement from the United Kingdom was brought to this open space, making Guangzhou the first stop for modern badminton to enter China, and at the time, it led to some conditional conditions. Guangzhou people began to contact this novel movement.

However, the truly developing badminton in Guangzhou has traced back to the 1950s and 1960s. Overseas Chinese, such as Fu Hanyu and Hou Jiachang, made a huge contribution to the development of Guangdong and even Chinese badminton. Guangzhou has also become the earliest city of the National Badminton Association.

Fu Hanzhang was born in Sixian, Indonesia in 1941. Without obtaining any professional badminton guidance, Fu Hanzhang won the men's single runner -up at the North Sumatra province's badminton competition at the age of 17, and received the appreciation of the then chairman of the Indonesian Badminton Association Sudi Man. But he did not choose to stay in Indonesia, but was returned to his motherland with his passionate father.

Fu Hanyu still remembers a scene where he passed through the Malacca Strait in 1960 to return to the scene of Guangzhou. Back in Guangzhou, Fu Hanzhang joined the Guangdong team. There is a strong desire for glory for the country, but there are many jokes in training, because I have not been trained overseas overseas. At first, our physical fitness was poor, and running training could not even compare the female players. "

Prior to 1962, the members of the Guangdong Badminton Team Qing Yixi were "returned overseas Chinese", representing the Guangdong team to win the national badminton championship. Fu Hanyu was also a member of the Chinese team. Strong team Denmark.

At that time, in addition to training and competitions, Fu Hanzhang and his teammates joined for labor construction. After labor, they performed badminton performances for farmers. "In 1964, we went to Guangzhou Huaxian (now Huadu District) to participate in the construction of Jiuwantan Reservoir and built a dam with local farmers. When we rest, we will play badminton exhibitions in the field of dried water. Being a net rod on the ground and the Internet. Local farmers sit on the hillside and watch. Most of them watched badminton performances for the first time. At that time, the remaining rice stubble after Hetian was harvested. From time to time, they were all scratched, but everyone was happy, and we were very happy. "

Fu Hanyu could not represent the National World Championship in that era, but players such as Hou Jiachang have actually reached the top level of the world. In the 1960s, the world's badminton are known as the "unparalleled king".

After retiring in 1970, Fu Hanyu became the coach of the Badminton Class of the Guangzhou Stadium Sports School, and in 1978 became the coach of the Guangzhou badminton team.

When the Sports School was just established, the location was located in the Fifty -six Middle School of the Thin Gouling. The badminton venue was the original auditorium of the school. Fu Hanyu recalled that the "tragic" of the auditorium once made everyone look stupid. The doors and windows were full of sores, the cement floor was rough, and the roof was rude asbestos.

"The leader promised to find a way to repair it. As a result, when it was officially moved, the windows were blocked with bricks. The venue was dark and the lights were turned on during the day. Winter is okay. The temperature of the lighting is more than 40 degrees. So I always admire my trainees, so young, training under such difficult conditions, but everyone has practiced very much. At that time, the equipment was thin. A pair of shoes, but the team members often wear a pair of shoes in less than a month. I have to collect everyone's rotten shoes every Saturday, ride a bicycle to a familiar shoe repairmaker, and send the shoes back on Sunday to send it to everyone . In this environment, everyone's fighting spirit and upper mind have been tempered. "

In 1977, the Guangzhou Municipal Sports Commission hosted the National Youth Badminton Tournament. Because it was an organizer, Guangzhou was arranged to allow teams to participate, so Fu Hanyu led the temporary team to participate in the competition.

"Of course, we think it is a good learning opportunity, but in the opinion of the leadership of the Sports Committee, as a amateur team, it is impossible for us to compete with other professional teams. I did not expect that our team members cherished this opportunity. A game is like a small tiger, all of which have the spirit of hard work. The semi -finals even defeated the Shanghai team. This is something we dare not think about it, and it has caused a sensation in the country. Later Most of the players were delivered by the Guangzhou team and were the brothers and sisters of our team members. As a result, each ball played three games at that time, and we lost. But the brothers admire us very much. " Guangzhou Badminton "Godfather" Fu Hanyu Picture/Yangcheng Evening News reporter He Quansheng

After this game, the National Sports Commission opened another "special case": allowing Guangzhou to set up a badminton professional team in 1978. In the next decades, Fu Hanxuan was not eager to choose talents, and trained six badminton world champions such as Wu Dixi, Guan Weizhen, Lao Yujing, Lin Yanfen, Zhang Jiewen, Xie Xingfang.

Take Fei: Dazzling Champions List

Yang Xinfang, the current head coach of the Guangzhou Badminton Team, is also a disciple brought by Fu Hanyu and his wife Zeng Xiuying. In 1974, he entered the Guangzhou team. Due to his good results, he was often transferred to the national team to participate in international competitions. He won the World Championships in 1987 and 1989.

Yang Xinfang recalled that the Guangzhou team has made their debut in various youth competitions four or five years later: "The women's doubles champion of the Youth Championship was basically won by our Guangzhou team. . Our women's team won the championship in the two national championships in 1988 and 1989. It is very amazing that a city team can get such results! "

After Yang Xinfang won the Youth Championship in 1983, he won the competition on behalf of the national team to Europe. "At that time, I still asked the national team coach stupidly why I always sent me to the European competition? Two machines and spending more than 20 hours to arrive. Each long distance, the feet are swollen and can't wear shoes. "

At the same time, the level of badminton in Guangzhou is also increasing. In the 1970s and 1980s, many units had badminton enthusiasts. Go to play with my uncle and aunt and lose to them. Although I can run, their ball is very high, and I start to realize that power is really important. At that time Some badminton enthusiasts went to the sports school to play against us. "

In 1989, Yang Xinfang became a coach of the Guangzhou team after retiring. Because of his excellent performance, he was repeatedly borrowed to the national team as a coach. In her impression, when the most heyday, the number of Guangzhou athletes of the national team reached seven or eight. "At that time, our coaches were still very easy to choose. On the one hand, the concept of good badminton in Guangzhou is deeply rooted in people's hearts. Ask children what sports want to learn, many children will choose badminton. On the other hand support".

Zhang Jiewen, the 2004 Athens Olympic Games, embarked on the road of badminton. In the summer of 1987, Zhou Yanhong, a badminton enthusiast, heard that the Guangzhou Stadium was holding a sports school enrollment consultation activity, and he led his six -year -old daughter Zhang Jiewen. "At that time, I was sitting in the consultation office. Instructor Fu (Fu Hanzhang). My mother asked a lot of questions and said that she wanted to teach her daughter to play, but I didn't know how to teach. I remember that Guide Fu was enthusiastic and wrote a recommendation letter to me. I also embarked on the road of badminton since then. Later, I entered the Guangzhou team and turned around and became a student instructed by Fu. "

Under the leadership of Fu Hanzhang, 5 of the eight female members of the same group as Zhang Jiewen were transported to the national team, of which Zhang Jiewen and Xie Xingfang won the Olympic champion and world champion.

Fu Hanyu has a very interesting and accurate evaluation of the six world champions that he brings out: "Wu Dixi is a left -handed, this is a unique advantage, and she plays calmly and clever. On the Games, the school asked her to participate in a grenade's game, and she did not practice, and no matter what posture, it was a champion. She had a good explosive power, that is, the lower limbs were slightly not so flexible and a little bit of suffering. Lao Yujing's main main. The nerve type is special and the response is particularly fast. So far, I haven't found the second badminton player like her. She also has a characteristic that it is not to lose. The more unfavorable, the more you dare to fight. Features. Although Lin Yanfen is short, the basic technology is relatively comprehensive, the ball is good at moving the brain, and the awareness of tactics is better. Zhang Jiewen has better offensive power and the technology is stable. Xie Xingfang has a long hands and long feet. Although the physical fitness is slightly weaker, the basic technology is more comprehensive , Hitting has a great advantage. "

In addition to these six world championships, the Guangzhou team also trained Yang Wei, the women's doubles badminton champion of the 2004 Athens Olympic Games, and Yu Jinhao, who won the 1999 Sudman Cup team champion, and eight badminton world champions shining Yangcheng.
