Lin's home is in Baoheng Jinhong Arc de Triomphe Community. Lin's father Lin and his mother Gao came to Baoan as early as the early 1990s. After discovering that Lin is very talented in table tennis, the couple made a lot of efforts for Lin's development. Lin is also a table tennis fan. Won the second place in the first sports meeting in Baoan District. Lin started practicing at the age of 4. After attending elementary school, I was attracted by coach Weng Meiqiong of Baoan Sports School and trained with coach Weng. Later, under the recommendation of coach Weng, he joined the Guangdong team and was selected for the national team in April 2009.
"When I was young, Gao Yuan always regarded table tennis player Chen Qi as his idol. Now that he has been selected for the national team through his own efforts, he can often practice playing games with idols. " Speaking of his son's progress, Lin was extremely excited. "Yes, that's him. I only heard that Gao Yuan played better and better after leaving school. I didn't expect him to make the national team. I'm really happy for him. " Ou Zhuoping, former principal of Xin 'an Lake Primary School and director of the preparatory office of Pingzhou Primary School, was also very excited to mention Lin. Lin's first, second and third grades are all in the new primary school. At that time, there were five children in the school who played table tennis well, and they all arranged special coaches to teach them to practice.
In Ou Zhuoping's memory, Lin practiced very hard. In order to support him wholeheartedly, several subject teachers took the initiative to "open a small stove" to give him a supplementary culture class. "At that time, Gao Yuan was a minor celebrity in Xin 'an Street and even the whole Baoan District. He often plays games everywhere on behalf of schools and streets, and often wins championships! " Ou Zhuoping said happily. Director Qiu of Xin 'an Lake Primary School also praised Lin: "He is the pride of our school, and I hope to take time to come back and pass on scriptures and send treasures to my brothers and sisters."
"I am now living a full life in the national team, but the pressure is not small. Because the national team is like a cloud, I hope that through my own efforts, I can have the opportunity to participate in more competitions and realize my dream of Olympic Games and world champions for many years as soon as possible. " Lin said to.
Lin, who was only 15 years old, was favored by coaches and teammates. In a recent ranking, Lin ranked seventh in the world among table tennis players below 18. "My ranking in the national team needs to be improved. I hope that through my own efforts, I will rush into the national team and become a real national team player. " In the praise of many people, Lin is sober.
As a table tennis player who grew up in Baoan, Lin is full of energy and a little domineering. What is more gratifying is that he has made no secret of his "ambition" to win the world championship.
Three generations of Lins like playing table tennis. Lin's grandfather is a sports worker and likes playing table tennis very much. Lin's father, Lin, has been fascinated by table tennis since he was a child and won the second place in the first sports meeting in Baoan District. When Lin was three years old, his father found that he also had a natural affinity for table tennis, so he tried to let Lin Touqiu cultivate his hands. Surprisingly, three-year-old Lin can head the ball several times! Later, Lin asked his son to bat the ball against the wall and practiced it several times. Lin can shoot the ball against the wall more than 50 times. This is equivalent to the level of an ordinary adult!
"Children are gifted and love to play with the ball. As a parent, you must support it if you have conditions, and create conditional support if you have no conditions. " Lin said that he bought a table and put it in the living room to practice. Because the living room is too small, he left a large space for his son, and he and his son practiced against the wall.
In order to create a better environment for his son, Lin also gritted his teeth and opened a table tennis hall near Liutang market. "Our arena is not well managed, and we have lost hundreds of thousands in a few years. But with the arena, children can practice there seriously. Watching children's skills continue to improve, it is worthwhile to lose money. " Mother Gao recalled that since the establishment of the arena, the father and son spent most of their time in the arena every day. Since then, Lin's ball skills have improved rapidly. In the view of his father Lin, there are not many "secrets" for Lin to achieve today's achievements. However, speaking of "idolization" with children all over the country, Lin seems to relish it.
Lin said that in order to improve children's skills, besides the efforts of parents and coaches, it is very important for children to watch more masters. Therefore, it has become a common practice for Mr. and Mrs. Lin to take their children to watch games all over the country. "I once held the National Games in Shantou, and experts such as Kong were present. I took Gao to watch the game. After watching the ball, I took great pains to take photos with the two masters. Finally, I walked into the competition field from the side door and finally found the hole. I stubbornly asked them to point out the child. I didn't expect them to be very kind and took a group photo with Gao Yuan. " Lin said that children often watch the masters, and they have an example in their hearts, and their progress has become faster.
In the process of Lin's growth, Lin and his wife attached great importance to the cultivation of children's personality. "I often let my children learn to compare, but the comparison is not for food and clothing, but for grades." Under the guidance of his father, Lin entered the Guangdong team directly from Baoan. After several years of training in the provincial team, he was successfully selected into the national team in April 2009. In some high-level competitions, Lin also constantly beat the masters and won a place in the world rankings. "He is relatively independent. When I was selected to go to Shunde for training in the third grade of primary school, my parents were not around and I had to take care of myself. He is completely independent of adults. " Mother Gao said that Lin often plays ball and trains outside, and he is relatively independent. Not only that, he often comforts his mother and tells her to pay attention to her health. "It makes people want to cry."
In the memory of Weng Meiqiong of Baoan Sports School, Lin is a sensible "little boy". "I taught him an internship at New Juan Primary School. He never slacks off and never loses his temper in front of the coach. He practices very hard. "
Mr. Li, Lin's neighbor and golf friend, also said that he was polite since he was a child and was a well-educated athlete. Mr. Li said that Gao Yuan's persistence in table tennis, coupled with the continuous improvement of his own quality, "will certainly reach a new level."
"He is never complacent about defeating his opponent. He won today's position by constantly looking for his own shortcomings and constantly defeating himself. " Li, the current head table tennis coach of Guangdong Province, once took Lin, and he spoke highly of Lin. "Now he is still in the second group of the national team. I believe that through a period of hard work, he has no problem entering the first group of the national team. " Li Yumin said.
