Deng Yaping is the pride of Chinese athletes. Because of her short stature, she was once shunned by the provincial and national teams. However, with her spirit of not being afraid of difficulties, she impressed the coach with her excellent performance. member and eventually became the queen of table tennis. After retiring from the army, Deng Yaping, who only had a primary school education, successfully obtained a bachelor's degree certificate from Tsinghua University, a graduate degree from the University of Nottingham, and a doctoral degree from the University of Oxford, achieving a grand slam in her studies. Later, Deng Yaping devoted herself to business and has now become a single wealthy woman worth over 100 million yuan. It is said that no one can succeed easily, but Deng Yaping can succeed in three different fields: sports, academics and business. What is her secret to success? 1. I am short but I have become the queen of table tennis. I have invested more than you, so why can’t I beat you?

On February 6, 1973, Deng Yaping was born in Zhengzhou, Henan. Her father used to be a staff member of the Henan table tennis team. Deng Yaping started learning table tennis with her father when she was five years old. Later, her father planned to send her to a sports academy, but she was rejected because of her short height.

Dad can only take Deng Yaping to practice table tennis in person again. Deng Yaping, who is individual and strong, secretly made up her mind to impress the coaches with her results and become a world champion.

In order to make up for the shortcoming of insufficient height, Deng Yaping tied sandbags on the soles of her feet during training, wore a sandsuit on her body, and trained with 30 kilograms of sandbags on her legs every day. The result of such training is that Deng Yaping is as light as a swallow in the competition, with quick hands and quick eyes.

The fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold, and Deng Yaping’s investment finally paid off. In 1982, Deng Yaping, who was only nine years old, won the championship in the regional competition of amateur sports schools across the country, thus winning the favor of the Henan team and calling her into the provincial team. However, Deng Yaping's experience with the provincial team was very short-lived. She was sent home after half a month, perhaps because of her short height.

Deng Yaping did not lose heart. In 1983, she won the singles and team championships in youth table tennis competitions across the country. With such an impressive performance, the Henan team had no reason to avoid Deng Yaping, so she finally got her wish and joined the Henan team.

In 1986, 13-year-old Deng Yaping won the national championship. Based on such results, she should have entered the national team without any doubt. However, in order to better discuss the issue of Deng Yaping entering the national team, the coaches held three discussions. Perhaps because of Deng Yaping's short stature, four of the five coaches of the national team opposed Deng Yaping's selection to the national team. In the end, it was Zhang Xielin who was the only one. With a keen eye, Jin Jian bluntly decided to accept Deng Yaping into the national team.

After joining the national team, Deng Yaping’s spirit of not being afraid of difficulties once again showed. According to coach Zhang Xielin’s records, Deng Yaping’s daily training time is 40 minutes longer than others. In addition, She was still training last Sunday. She trained 48 days more than others in a year!

Because she is more diligent and studious than others, Deng Yaping is very confident in her ability to work: "I have invested more than you, why can't I beat you! If others say you are not good, you have to stand up for yourself. , You have to study hard and practice hard.”

The next thing is a matter of course. During Deng Yaping’s career with the national team, she won 18 global championships, including four in the summer. Olympic champion, three-time World Championship champion, and one World Cup champion, Deng Yaping also became the first female Grand Slam in the history of table tennis and the first Chinese Grand Slam. 2. Obtained a bachelor's degree from Tsinghua University, a master's degree from the University of Nottingham, and a doctoral degree from the University of Oxford, completing his studies.

Deng Yaping's Olympic spirit of not being afraid of difficulties and pursuing perfection faster and stronger attracted people at that time. The vision of Samaranch, the current president of the Olympic Committee. The final of the 1991 Chiba World Table Tennis Championships was held between Deng Yaping and North Korean general Lee Fenji. Samaranch was also present to watch the event. Samaranch was touched by the Olympic spirit shown by Deng Yaping. He praised Deng Yaping to those around him: "She is like a big bear!" Samaranch invited Deng Yaping to visit the Olympic Committee and asked her to learn English.

In 1996, Samaranch candidate Deng Yaping served as the Fitness Sports Federation Committee of the Olympic Organizing Committee. Since the office languages ??of the Olympic Committee are English and French, in order to better serve as the Olympic Organizing Committee, Deng Yaping entered the Department of Foreign Languages ??of Tsinghua University in 1997 to study.

In 1998, Deng Yaping, who had a successful career, announced her retirement from the army and invested a lot of energy into her studies.

Regarding her choice, Deng Yaping said this: "Everyone says that players have strong limbs and simple minds. I want to prove that players can not only play well in the game, but also do other things well. ”

Due to participating in table tennis training since childhood, Deng Yaping’s art student cultural classes were very lacking. When she first entered Tsinghua University, Deng Yaping only knew 26 English letters. In order to learn English as early as possible, Deng Yaping was sent to the University of Cambridge to study English as an international student at Tsinghua University in 1998. Gradually, Deng Yaping, whose English foundation was too poor, could not keep up with the rhythm of teaching. In order to better break through English, she took on the ambition of becoming a world champion.

In order to have sufficient study time, Deng Yaping shortened her meal time. Deng Yaping brings a sandwich to teach every day. During the afternoon break, she eats the sandwich and then reads a book. At night, she often eats instant noodles with some vegetables or raw eggs. I wake up at 5 o'clock every morning to memorize words and sort out my notes, and don't fall asleep until at least 12 o'clock at night. Deng Yaping spends at least 14 hours learning English every day.

At the graduation party of Tsinghua University, Deng Yaping gave an opening speech to the teachers in fluent English. Then Deng Yaping flew to the University of Nottingham in the United States and received a postgraduate degree in 2002. After that, she went to Cambridge University to study for a doctoral degree. In 2008, she received a doctoral degree in land resource socioeconomics from the University of Oxford, completing a grand slam in her studies. 3. The beauty of working women once again appears in large shopping malls

In 2010, Deng Yaping became the vice chairman of the People’s Daily and the manager of instant search. Three years later, Deng Yaping resigned from the position of instant search manager. Some people Rumor has it that she lost all 2 billion and resigned in dejection.

However, the People’s Daily’s report on Deng Yaping’s work in the past three years is: In more than three years, the website’s daily visits have increased to a peak of 13 million, and the website’s market share ranking has dropped from more than 30,000 across the country. The ranking is around three hundred.

This report may not be particularly outstanding, but for Deng Yaping, who is entering a shopping mall for the first time, it is a satisfactory report. On June 9, 2016, Deng Yaping resigned from her position as vice chairman of the People's Daily and embarked on the road of self-employment. Deng Yaping and three business service experts Wang Shengjiang, New Oriental Yu Minhong and Sheng Xitai jointly created China's first sports industry independent innovation and entrepreneurship service platform.

Now Deng Yaping has cleansed the company and made it prosperous. She also lives in a luxury villa worth tens of millions and is worth hundreds of millions. Looking at Deng Yaping's life, no matter which industry she is in, she has invested more time than others. Why do such people fail?
