Cao Yanhua once publicly said: "Shi Zhihao is the best man in the world and must marry him."
However, after more than ten years of marriage, they divorced. Shi Zhihao turned to marry Li Nan, a female apprentice 23 years younger, and then fell into controversy.
After Cao Yanhua and Shi Zhihao divorced, they didn't have a new relationship for many years, so in terms of feelings, they were somewhat lonely than their ex-husbands.
From 65438 to 0962, Cao Yanhua was born in an ordinary worker's family, and the whole family loved sports. When Cao Yanhua was two years old, she went to pick up the ball with her sister and started playing table tennis in primary school.
At that time, table tennis was a national sport. You can put bamboo poles or boards on the ground to play. Even the cement table in the vegetable market and the bed board at home can be used as tables.
There are many players, but there are few regular table tennis tables. If you want to occupy the table, you must win. If you win, you can play on the table for a while.
When Cao Yanhua was seven or eight years old, he often won the game, and his father's heart began to drift. He spent five yuan "huge sum" to buy a high-grade cricket racket for his daughter, while the ordinary racket was only one or two yuan.
At that time, Cao Yanhua didn't like playing ball very much, because it was a bit boring. She likes playing the piano very much.
Cao Yanhua's father said to her, "Isn't it a waste to play the piano now and practice for a few years?" In a word, Cao Yanhua's piano dream was shattered.
In order to make her daughter achieve something in table tennis, her father also studied some training methods, so that Cao Yanhua kept swinging, and the whole family watched her, and she would also exercise her arm strength with an iron plate.
1977, Cao Yanhua was in Hongkou Sports School. When he entered the Shanghai team for trial training, he didn't even enter the establishment. He was directly selected and "skipped" into the national team, which was equivalent to jumping three levels.
Cao Yanhua was born as a "guerrilla" and never practiced long-distance running. After he joined the national team, he practiced dizziness every day. Besides, due to the resistance of Australia, he is very easily tired, but his performance is quite good.
1978, after Cao Yanhua entered the official job of the national team, he was paid 36 yuan for one month. After winning the National Games, he rose three times, 1983, and rose to 120 yuan.
I will reward foreign exchange every time I play international games, but players can't take foreign exchange. The translator holds a cloth bag with RMB in it, and gives bonuses to the players, limited to 300 yuan.
In this way, Cao Yanhua has won 59 championships at home and abroad.
In the days of the national team, Cao Yanhua had a perfect love match. 18 years old, had a love affair with Shi Zhihao, a handsome boy on the team.
Cao Yanhua and Shi Zhihao only played mixed doubles once in their lives.
The players are going to play in Europe. Five men and four women stayed abroad for a month and a half and got along well with each other.
Shizhihao helped Cao Yanhua with his luggage politely. Cao Yanhua saw that Shi Zhihao's bag was broken, so she took out a needle and thread to help mend it.
However, she is not very good at embroidery. When sewing, she sewed the pockets together directly, and Shi Zhihao couldn't even reach in. This is the first time that Cao Yanhua sewed a bag for a man, and it hasn't been sewn yet.
A few days later, Shi Zhihao called Cao Yanhua's dormitory from the fourth floor with an internal phone: "There is a movie in our gymnasium tonight. Will you go and see it? "
Cao Yanhua said, "I don't usually go to the movies."
Shi Zhihao found that Cao Yanhua was not interested in movies, so he asked her out to chat, which was a formal relationship.
The national team forbids dating. They can only have an "underground romance" secretly, and teammate Cai Zhenhua also acts as a "messenger" and a third wheel for them.
Cao Yanhua will put the letter under the door of the boys' dormitory and ask Cai Zhenhua to give it to her boyfriend Shi Zhihao. Unexpectedly, there was an accident once.
Cai Zhenhua didn't take the letter away in time that day. When the team leader opened the door the next day, he found a thick letter on the ground and asked for directions. Cai Zhenhua said anxiously, "This letter was written by my girlfriend."
In order to cover for the couple, Cai Zhenhua exposed his girlfriend and made a "sacrifice".
A few years later, the team discovered their relationship and punished them.
Shi Zhihao's performance was not so outstanding, and he was transferred from the national team. Cao Yanhua was the main player in the team and was left behind.
Maybe to turn grief into strength. After Shi Zhihao left, Cao Yanhua won several championships with excellent strength. After Shi Zhihao returned to Shanghai Institute of Physical Education to study, Cao Yanhua's heart also flew back to Shanghai.
Cao Yanhua is also an "unruly" player in the team. Her strange clothes and smoking habits often make her the object of "criticism".
With her boyfriend gone, Cao Yanhua made a retirement report for various reasons.
Table tennis 1988 can enter the Olympic Games, and everyone advised Cao Yanhua to retire after the Olympic Games.
At this time, Cao Yanhua has turned my back. She thinks Shi Zhihao is a very suitable marriage partner.
Cao Yanhua said publicly, "I think he is the best man and the most handsome man in the world. I finally caught one and must marry him. "
Cao Yanhua is full of praise for her boyfriend Shi Zhihao, which shows that she values this relationship. From 65438 to 0985, Cao Yanhua retired from the national team and married Shi Zhihao.
A few months after their marriage, Cao Yanhua came to Japan to give lectures. As a stranger, she felt very lonely. Fortunately, Shi Zhihao also went to Japan and stayed with her for a year.
1In September, 987, Shi Zhihao went to the famous table tennis club in Germany to coach. They lived in that small town in central Germany.
The scenery in the town is very beautiful. Shi Zhihao's salary in the club was very high at that time. He bought a villa and a car and lived a good life.
Cao Yanhua changed from the "table tennis queen" to a housewife, and her neighbors called her "Mrs. Shi". Not many people abroad know her, as if she doesn't have her own name, and her glory in table tennis has become history.
In her spare time, she opened a Chinese restaurant and started Sino-German trade with friends, thus enriching her life.
When Cao Yanhua was 30 years old, the couple finally considered having a child.
1992 At the beginning of this year, Cao Yanhua was pregnant, but she gave birth soon. She thought it might be caused by nicotine in her body and regretted not giving up smoking earlier.
After a while, Cao Yanhua was pregnant again. At five months, the German doctor said that she could see the gender. Cao Yanhua said that she really wanted a girl.
The doctor said to Shi Zhihao, "You must like boys, right?" Shi Zhihao nodded his head.
The doctor made a face and said to Cao Yanhua, "It's a pity that you have to wait for the next time."
A few months later, their son Shi Zexi was born. His nickname is Little Billy, and he looks more like his father Shi Zhihao.
During the nine years in Germany, Cao Yanhua also did his old job. The German team wanted to hire her at a high salary, but she refused. She doesn't want to do anything that affects the image of her motherland, and she doesn't want to meet China players on the field.
From 65438 to 0995, Cao Yanhua and Shi Zhihao returned to Shanghai and set foot in real estate, construction, sporting goods and other industries.
Cao Yanhua doesn't have much business talent or financial resources. He has been stumbling in business.
1997, Shi zhihao went to Beijing to coach the national team. At this time, Cao Yanhua's career in Shanghai developed well and they separated.
Shi Zhihao also hopes that Cao Yanhua will go to Beijing for development, but Cao Yanhua can't give up its base in Shanghai. Shi Zhihao once coached Li Ju and Angelababy, the main players of the women's team. Shi Zhihao has been working hard, and sometimes he can't sleep until 12 at night.
His son and wife were left behind by him, and Cao Yanhua's career was very busy. He had to take care of his son and couldn't help complaining to Shi Zhihao: "You and table tennis have a lifetime, and my son and I have no place in your heart!"
When two people are separated from each other, they will talk about this problem on the phone, but Cao Yanhua can't go to Beijing, so he often breaks up in discord, and no one will compromise.
Shi Zhihao thinks their personalities are too strong. Finally, they divorced.
In order to reduce the harm to their children, they concealed the fact of divorce, and neither did their elderly parents.
In order to hide it from both parents, Cao Yanhua still sends his son Billy to his grandparents' home every week. Every week, the old couple will cook a sumptuous meal to welcome their grandchildren.
After three years, Shi Zhihao's parents finally knew the truth.
"YanHua such a good woman, why don't you know to cherish! You don't know when you will be blessed! " Shi Zhihao's parents were shocked to learn that their son and daughter-in-law had divorced and scolded their son.
The parents' divorce also dealt a great blow to their son Shi Zexi, so they had to work hard together, indicating that their love for their son remained the same as before.
After the divorce, they still talk on the phone and send text messages. Shi Zhihao will communicate with Cao Yanhua when he is confused at work, and Cao Yanhua will take the initiative to call Shi Zhihao when he has problems with his son's education.
When Shi Zhihao goes to Shanghai, Cao Yanhua will let his son spend time with his father and let father and son get along well.
When my son Shi Zexi was in primary school, he began to try to play table tennis. Sometimes he teaches his mother to play table tennis after practicing with his father. At that time, his son didn't know that his mother could play table tennis.
Later, I saw my mother's interview on TV and realized that my mother was the queen of table tennis. At this time, Shi Zexi backed out. He knows that he has nothing to teach his mother.
Perhaps his parents' achievements in table tennis are out of reach, but Shi Zexi still has no choice to become a table tennis player.
Mother Cao Yanhua said to Shi Zexi, "Since you don't want to fight, don't fight." Shi Zexi also likes sports and plays football well, but he has no professional sports training.
After Cao Yanhua and Shi Zhihao separated, they were less nervous when they met, and they got along more casually and easily.
In June 2006, when Cao Yanhua opened a school in Jinzhou, Liaoning, Shi Zhihao personally went to the scene to congratulate him. Later, the two often framed together in table tennis activities.
Cao Yanhua's married life is wonderful and full. After the establishment of Shanghai Table Tennis Club, Cao Yanhua became the general manager of the club. At this point, she has left the table tennis court 12 years.
After divorcing Shi Zhihao, Cao Yanhua has been busy with table tennis, and her ex-husband is like a passer-by in life. On 202 1 10, Cao Yanhua accompanied his disciple Xu Xin to participate in the Sports Festival of Shanghai University, and Xu Xin was hired as a professor in physical education class District of the school.
Cao Yanhua, with short hair, was sitting on the podium, wearing a striped suit and elegant. His skin is white and smooth, and no wrinkles can be seen. Although he is nearly 60 years old, he still looks like he is in his forties.
Xu Xin and his teacher Cao Yanhua are like mother and son. As long as they are free, he will go back to table tennis school.
When Cao Yanhua retired, table tennis had not yet entered the Olympic Games, and disciple Xu Xin finally realized his dream of becoming an Olympic champion.
Speaking of Xu Xin, Cao Yanhua is very proud, even more proud and happy than when he won the championship.
In order to open a table tennis school, Cao Yanhua sold his only house. At that time, the economy was very difficult, and the table tennis manufacturer also gave her thirty or forty tables and clothes to support her table tennis career.
At present, Cao Yanhua Table Tennis School covers an area of more than 7,000 square meters, with two training halls and a competition hall. The school has trained excellent national team members such as Xu Xin and Shang Kun.
Cao Yanhua's love life has always been very low-key. Later, netizens found that there was a "big warm man" around her, indicating that she had found the other half.
On one occasion, Cao Yanhua posted photos of her husband on social platforms. The current husband is 1.93 meters tall, wearing black-rimmed glasses and a cap, which is fashionable and handsome.
She held her husband's hand and leaned on his shoulder. They look lovely.
When Cao Yanhua commented on her current husband, she was full of happiness: "He is a super warm man, very handsome, and very tall, much taller than me." In Cao Yanhua's eyes, the current husband has a very good personality and looks very handsome.
Cao Yanhua often does exercises at home. There is a table tennis table in her living room. Cao Yanhua and her current husband used to be table tennis players, and they often have a discussion.
The process of two masters playing table tennis is very special. Both of them have rackets in their left hands and mobile phones in their right hands. Cao Yanhua is much better at table tennis than her husband.
After the first few rounds, both of them slowed down. Suddenly, Cao Yanhua smashed her mobile phone and lost her husband.
After winning, Cao Yanhua raised his hands, holding a mobile phone in one hand and a racket in the other, and kept cheering, excited like a child.
My husband stood by and looked at her with a smile and spoil while maintaining his posture.
Besides table tennis, Cao Yanhua will practice tennis at home. She is very young because of long-term exercise. Seeing the master doing exercises, the huskies at home jumped around and barked.
Cao Yanhua's son Shi Zexi has also grown up. He studied sports-related majors in college, which is not too far from sports.
Now Shi Zexi is 28 years old, tall and handsome, and has his own career. He once accompanied the leaders of the Football Association to Japan as an interpreter.
Cao Yanhua once said, "I have no regrets in my life."
She is a person who dares to love and hate, and her popularity is very good. Table tennis gave her the highest honor. She decided to do something meaningful for the rest of her life and give back to table tennis. Her life is closely linked with table tennis.
From a table tennis "first sister" to a housewife, Cao Yanhua walked out of a broken marriage, found a new partner, and lived a wonderful life of her own through constant self-adjustment.
