Dancing on the Blade
Ever youthful, ever possibilities, Zheng Jiajun is a person who refuses to let go of any possibilities.
At the age of 14, Zheng Jiajun, who was studying at Dianliu No. 1 Middle School, first came into contact with climbing bikes. "For the first time, I realized that bicycles could be played like this." The teenager who had been frolicking on roller skates became obsessed with climbing bikes, and the corridors and staircases of Quancheng Square became Zheng Jiajun's secret place to go after school.
From the most basic back wheel to set the ground, step jump and other actions to do, fall, climb up, big undershirt wet dry, dry and wet - tracking his son's Zheng Jiajun mother, found his son's secret on the Quancheng Plaza, a full two hours to see Zheng Jiajun fell dozens of times, sweating soaked through the whole pair of shoes. "Also see the earlier planting crops out of these sweats", was his son "scared" Zheng Jiajun's mother immediately made a board, out of two thousand eight hundred dollars to the use of "Shanzhai goods" of the "Bewitched" son bought the first regular car.
An extreme sports master, there is no doubt that must also be a master of self-control ability is superb - sweat and injuries intermingled, beyond the ordinary physical ability and perseverance, thundering training time ...... without self-control and toughness can not reach. Ten years down the line, cocked head, camouflage clothing, seemingly fashionable, rebellious Zheng Jiajun is actually introverted, perseverance, words will be practiced.
By the time he was promoted to Jinan No. 2 Middle School as an international level 2 athlete, Zheng Jiajun's obstacle course cycling skills had become so skillful that he not only became a sponsor of Amini Bicycle, but also often participated in commercial performances outside the school.
"I'm a lucky guy who realized his childhood dream in his early 20s." In 2007, Zheng Jiajun, who was studying in Beijing, saw the pinnacle of his obstacle-cycling practice career when he traveled to Japan for the first time as captain of the obstacle-cycling Chinese national team to compete in the World Obstacle-Cycling Championships, placing 40th out of more than 3,000 competitors, making him one of the few Asian masters of obstacle-cycling.
It was also that competition that Zheng Jiajun saw the unlimited prospects of obstacle cycling, sharp and thunderous Zheng Jiajun returned to Jinan, then in the north of Yanshan District, founded the Jiasu obstacle cycling life hall, the agent of the operation of bicycles and equipment.
After that, Zheng Jiajun started his own clothing brand Maria and owns his own Chao brand clothing store. Fusion of young people's fashion concepts, design clothing, "I'm wearing camouflage clothing, jeans look good, right? They are all my own designs." In addition, Zheng Jiajun, who loves to keep reptilian pets, has filled his store with withered leaf turtles, golden horned frogs, crocodile turtles, spiders, lizards, and crocodiles, and these critters are also the inspiration for his clothing design. "Every thing has another side, for example, I seem to be rebellious actually very reliable," Zheng Jiajun said playfully, really, he took out a crocodile pattern T-shirt, the front is fierce teeth, the back is the crocodile's tears and kisses, "implying that do not only look at the surface of the thing! ".
"I like to design my own destiny on my own whim," said Zheng Jiajun, whose family has not been very rich, changing his trajectory from a cocktail head, camouflage clothing, listening to the "Flower Boys" bouncing around the stage singing "The future master must be us" punk teenager, to own three obstacle bicycle chain stores, a Chao brand clothing store, commercial performances, their own hobby into a career of "reliable youth", Zheng Jiajun with their own experience interpretation of the post-80s "flower generation" of adolescence to adulthood. (Source: Qilu Weekly) Every evening, when the sun went down, Heihuquan appeared particularly lively. Accompanied by a burst of applause, only to see a "bicycle" in the control of a young man of about 20 years old, first the front wheel up, then people lifting the car and the ground at a 70-degree incline, at first glance like a calendar on the "Pegasus up" model, and then, the rear wheel in the Bounced in place twice, suddenly the young man a force, the wheels of a leap "flying" to half a meter high on the steps. At this time, onlookers can not help but just a scene to clap their hands. Reporters approached to see, this "bike" is not general, no seat, the front tires look particularly large, and the back tires than the front tires are also thick, and motorcycles have a spell. Just show the car skills of Liu told reporters that this car called climbing car, quite popular in recent years, is a kind of extreme sports.
Speaking, and Liu came to the small Li is ready to show his hand in front of the crowd, he first rode in the crowd around two laps, did a warm-up. Then in the park, a half-meter-high steps above the "human car upright", and then make force, leap, landing. But a second or two of time, Li from the obstacle at the end of the leap to the end. Because of the speed is too fast, onlookers have not had time to shoot down, has ended the perfect jump. The exciting moment was so short that many spectators exclaimed that it was not enjoyable.
In the cheers of the onlookers, the boys couldn't hold back their desire to perform, and took turns, lifting the front wheel, making force, leaping, landing, the same action, everyone tried their best to perform perfectly. It was the turn of the beginner Wang, because he had just entered the profession not long ago, he looked a little nervous, riding a larger climbing bike in place to do the warm-up action, the front wheel was frequently lifted, but due to the unstable technology, often can not hold on for a few seconds, uncontrolled tires fell back to the ground. "I haven't been practicing this for as long as they have, so my technique isn't stable yet." Although there is no full certainty, but Wang insisted on the challenge, when finally landed smoothly, he could not help but be a little excited, "Dare to meet the challenge and beyond the self, this is also the spirit of extreme sports." The boys perform with vigor, the audience can afford to watch. In casual conversation, the captain of Zheng Jiajun told reporters that they often cut car skills, Heihuquan, Heroes Hill Square, Quancheng Square are their "sword" place. "It turns out that many of our team members are more introverted people, in public occasions to perform a program, it is impossible. Climbing car has changed the character of many people, let us find ourselves, from which we gained confidence, but also gained happiness." At the request of the team members, Zheng Jiajun, who once won an international award, began to perform the action, the same action seemed very easy for him, and the perfect performance ushered in a burst of applause. "Bicycle climbing, also known as obstacle cycling, evolved from the obstacle motorcycle (mototrial), the rider riding a bicycle across the obstacles." Captain Zheng Jiajun introduced, climbing bike as early as the end of the 1970s has been prevalent in Europe, now in foreign countries has become a mainstream sport. Zheng Jiajun first contact with the climbing car, or a junior high school student, then see a few people in the Quancheng Square to play climbing car, like the challenge of Zheng Jiajun then abandoned skateboarding and switch to climbing technology, at that time, Zheng Jiajun's skateboarding skills in the province has been one of the best. "At that time to play climbing car top a dozen, ten years past, now the team developed to more than 200 people." The reporter learned that among the many players, in addition to Zheng Jiajun, there are a number of people who have taken the ranking of various competitions held at home and abroad.
Zheng Jiajun many times participated in large-scale competitions organized by the international, more than ten years of constant play climbing practiced a skill, he can see a wall or a stone the exact height. Zheng Jiajun recalled, "When I first joined the industry, when a car is very expensive, the earliest I played with ordinary bicycles, and later played modified mountain bike. Then the whole family put together a sum of money, finally bought a professional climbing car." Zheng Jiajun told reporters, assembling a climbing car, a minimum of 2,000 yuan, this climbing car is the most basic, that is, entry-level, 21 kilograms or so, the more advanced climbing car the lighter the weight of the general 15 kilograms or so of the climbing car a minimum of 15,000 yuan, some cars as high as four or five million. However, play climbing car, the conditions than Zheng Jiajun year to be much better, in his team, some members of the team is only 12 years old, but play climbing car has been modeled. The reporter found that each member of the team have their own unique climbing car, understand that the climbing car parts are removable, according to their own preferences DIY.
It is understood that the climbing car as a kind of extreme sports, in the past two years by the young people's popularity. According to Zheng Jiajun, the team members are mostly young people, 1/3 of the team members are already in the workforce, the oldest of which is only in his early 30s. Many of the team members used to play outdoors, contact with the climbing car without exception began to perform more than walking on the climbing car interest, and like the sport. Playing climbing car on the environment is not high, the streets and alleys, or wherever an empty space, as long as there are stones or high steps on the line.
"In fact, the purpose of the movement is self-relaxation, used to like to travel in the way of decompression, and now feel that the climbing car is very interesting, and play endless." Interviews with a number of climbing car enthusiasts said, play climbing not only can learn from some of the skills, but also to realize some of the true meaning of life - perseverance, resistance to stress, endurance, the concept of time ...... Zheng Jiajun, the young man is only 25 years old, not Jinan! Zheng Jiajun, a 25-year-old young man, is not one of the earliest climbers in Jinan, but he is recognized as a big brother in the circle. This big player has been obsessed with climbing cars ever since. By the time he entered Jinan No. 2 Middle School as an international level 2 athlete, he was already so skilled that he not only became a sponsor of Amini Bicycles, but also participated in commercial performances outside of school.
Because of the large amount of exercise, is at the stage of rapid physical growth, when Zheng Jiajun meals are amazingly large, "I clearly remember, when I was 16 years old, in the school to eat a meal needs more than 20 yuan, the family was shocked." Zheng Jiajun joked that the family has not been too rich, may be very much related to their own large meals, "eat eat poor."
"I am a lucky man who realized his childhood dream in his early 20s." In 2007, Zheng Jiajun, who was studying in Beijing, saw the pinnacle of his climbing car practice career when he traveled to Japan for the first time as captain of the climbing car Chinese national team to compete in the World Climbing Car Championships, where he ranked 40th out of more than 3,000 competitors and became one of the few Asian climbing car masters. "At that time, after entering the repechage, he returned to the hotel where he stayed and was warmly welcomed by his Japanese friends, who were extraordinarily proud that Asians could enter the repechage."
It was after that competition that Zheng Jiajun solidified his lifelong commitment to the sport of climbing cars. Returning to Jinan, he founded the Jiasu Obstacle Cycling Life Center in the northern part of Yanshan District, which, in his own words, is "the largest professional obstacle cycling store in China". Zheng Jiajun quietly told reporters that on September 10, Teachers' Day, Zheng Jiajun morning visit to the elementary school teacher, morning visit to the junior high school teacher, at noon made a large banner to congratulate the high school teacher happy holidays.
Zhang Jingkun is from Qingdao and has just been promoted to Shandong Normal University. "I came to Jinan to study so I could practice cycling with Zheng Jiajun." Zhang Jingkun did not hide their own to Jinan University "motives are not pure". September 12 is the day of the 2010 Shandong Normal University new students. Zhang Jingkun early to Jinan, but his first place to report not the university, but Zheng Jiajun bicycle store.
"His bicycle is now stored in my place." Zheng Jiajun told reporters that a few years ago, he met Zhang Jingkun, who was obsessed with climbing cars, when he attended a climbing car promotion event in Qingdao, and since then he has formed a bond. "He is nearly 1.9 meters tall, and his strength is also very good, and now he can bounce on flat ground to 1.3 meters on a high platform." In the national climbing car competition held in Rizhao, Zhang Jingkun won the newcomer group runner-up. The old saying goes, "No rules, no circle." There is no discipline, the development can not be talked about. In the climbing car enthusiasts circle, Zheng Jiajun summarized the four unwritten military precepts, "are everyone's many years of training from experience, although it will not be mandatory, but do not do these four, want to become a good climber, difficult!"
Military rule number one: no smoking and no drinking. "In climbing training, riders need to often ride a bike to jump on the high platform of about 1.3 meters, across the 3 meters away from the deep ditch, a breath of gasping unevenly may lead to a full plate." Zheng Jiajun said, the normal race track has about 50 meters, riders need to walk the whole course in 2 minutes, once smoking or drinking, lung capacity can not reach, it is impossible to complete the required track in the prescribed time.
Rule number two: wear shorts in all seasons, long pants are prohibited. Zheng Jiajun told reporters, climbing car is a relatively very dangerous cycling, sometimes on the natural rock training, protection measures are weak, so the rider technology and dress has strict requirements.
It is understood that in the country, the riders in training, due to wearing pants and lead to the trouser leg into the wheel injury occurred from time to time, the lesson is very profound. It is in view of the lessons of many injuries, Jinan car enthusiasts circle gradually formed, whether it is a race or training, try not to wear pants, four seasons only wear shorts of the unwritten rules.
The third rule: a person practicing others to observe, avoid swarming. Unlike many other sports, climbing riders in training, not a flock, collective training mode, but the use of a person practicing, others to observe the way. Zheng Jiajun told reporters, it is because of the obstacles, so the riders than other sports athletes need more friends encouragement and guidance, "In view of this, we are practicing gradually formed a person practicing, crowded around the side of the observation method, there are encouraging and cheering, there are advice, each rider's own technical improvement is very helpful. "
Rule number four: collectively pick up trash after training. This military rule is not directly related to the training techniques of the climbing car, but it is related to the reputation that the circle of riders leaves to others. "Losing your honor is a big deal." Zheng Jiajun said that most of the venues where car enthusiasts often train, such as Heihuquan and Hero Mountain, are scenic spots with many tourists. Car enthusiasts training will often cause tourists onlookers. More onlookers, beverage bottles, ice cream sticks and other garbage created by tourists is inevitable. "If you leave a pile of garbage after each training, not only the sanitation department of the scenic area is not happy, the public's impression of our sport will also be greatly reduced, so after each training, we will focus on picking up all kinds of garbage made by themselves and tourists, and it has become a hard and fast rule of thumb in the circle of car enthusiasts." (Source: Shandong Business News ) Because the car is there Everyone has reason to believe that the wildest dreams are always intertwined with the deepest love. Only in this way is it possible to collide with the stone-breaking Genesis. And the story of Zheng Jiajun and the car is like the 20th century's George Mallory and Everest. Mallory and Everest. There is no reason, just because the car is there.
The name Zheng Jiajun is not unfamiliar to readers of the magazine. Zheng Jiajun has been featured in many of the fashion magazines circulating in Jinan. This is a favorite of the print media, full of camera sense, play with fashion, play with the bully, no compromise trend of a person.
This 85 years after and all not bad young people, the same, carried out bubble nightclubs, golf, sun supercars and other common people in the eyes of the extravagant activities; the difference is that he will organize a group of young people to go to the orphanage to see the children, to go to the Veterans Hospital to sympathize with the disabled veteran soldiers, but also to go to the springs to release ...... This is more or less a little let a person Unbelievable, because in the concept of ordinary people, 28 years old has more than 5 million Ferrari ride, this person must be non-official that is rich second generation, where will know the suffering of the people, why is there a need to show?
This preconceived conclusion was completely reversed after meeting Zheng Jiajun himself.
Self-improvement "against the sky" child
"Against the sky" is a word that Zheng Jiajun uses a lot. Used as the title of the article, the intention is to say that everything can not be blindly qualitative. As we have always believed, a problematic family is bound to give birth to problematic children, and these problems will eventually become various triggers, refracted on the road to growth, hindering the normal development of their psychological and behavioral state. This is also true of the family tragedy that has evolved into a social tragedy that has been unfolding all around us.
To really understand him, you can't bypass him and his climbing car.
At the age of 14, Zheng Jiajun was first introduced to climbing bikes. "For the first time, I realized that bikes could be so fun." This stubborn kid, who is an ox and born with a bullish streak, fell in love with climbing bikes at first sight, and after school, Quancheng Square became his most obsessive place.
Cheng Jiajun said his biggest influence was two women, his mother and grandmother. And the closest mom grew up thinking her son wasn't smart enough. This lack of intelligence is also directly reflected in the practice of climbing car, other people once or twice will know the new movements, Zheng Jiajun need to practice N many times in order to master the essentials. More to pay is sweat and blood, once he had to be soaked in sweat 4 clothes a day, because he understands that only hard work, only non-stop efforts to get what you want. In order to encourage his son, his mother went to print four big words and paste them in Zheng Jiajun's room, "the stupid bird flies first". The company said, Zheng Jiajun laughed: "My mom thought I was stupid when I was a kid, and now I don't think I'm any smarter than anyone else".
Climbing car is an extreme sport, the demand for physical fitness, perseverance and self-control ability is several times more than ordinary people. When practicing with Zheng Jiajun together with the partners to stick to today's very few. By the time Zheng Jiajun, an international athlete, entered Jinan No. 2 High School, he had become a sponsor of Amini Bicycle and was performing in a number of commercials.
Proud, kind-hearted Jinan kid
Sports cars are perhaps the one thing besides women that can make a man's hormones instantly explode.
Zheng Jiajun this life and the car's destiny has not been analyzed. All we know is that it took him only six years to make the transition from a two-wheeled scrambler to the world's top sports car, the Ferrari.
The appearance of this wild and unruly, but like the tea ceremony; fashion trend enthusiasts, but Jinan's only professional obstacle bicycle store opened in an old neighborhood; when the Ferrari from the dream into reality, this horse is not a good saddle with the bicycle store next to a piece of car cloth to hide from the wind and rain. From these appearances alone, this child's behavior is undoubtedly a classic synthesis of contradictions. However, there is a cause and effect relationship in the development of all things.
The car store is located in an old neighborhood because his grandmother lives here, and this is where he grew up. As long as in Jinan, Zheng Jiajun's lunch must be eaten with his 80-year-old grandmother; this old neighborhood has no neat and tidy garden design,
Many places have also been circled and planted with kidney beans, cucumbers and other vegetables; semi-new fitness equipment is still hitched on the drying bedding, a strong atmosphere of life in the old city ...... how to see This is not a good place to set up store. But this "against the sky" Jinan children were born to open the store here, the reason is related to reality, but also related to pride. "I just want to show people that you can have a Ferrari in a neighborhood like this, and make the neighbors who watched me grow up feel proud.
This soulful burst of pride fills Zheng Jiajun's life at times. As the president of Jinan's first top luxury car club, Zheng Jiajun participated in many sports car activities. After a long time, he found a strange phenomenon, many of the second and third-tier city drivers are ashamed to admit their real address, a brain to choose Beijing, Shanghai and other big cities. Zheng Jiajun is very puzzled, once in Shanghai to participate in activities, the host of the hosting hair of the introduction of "from Beijing, Mr. Zheng Jiajun". Zheng Jiajun on stage to speak to correct the information: I am a local Jinan people, and temporarily show a Jinan words. "If you yourself look down on the place where you were born and raised, who else is going to honor it?"
In order for the newly purchased Ferrari to hang the Lu A plate, Zheng Jiajun, who is a "financial fanatic", paid more than 10,000 yuan in cash for it. But he thinks it's worth it, because Lu A represents Jinan, and this red Ferrari belongs only to Jinan.
Because the Ferrari is there
Zheng Jiajun in the realization of the Ferrari dream is also very special, he abandoned the real needs of the house and the dream, chose the latter; Zheng Jiajun's mother, like all mothers, hope that their son can have a place to live in a peaceful home to start a family. Zheng Jiajun is very indifferent to this, because "everything is in the water, what I will have".
Asked why he was so attracted to Ferrari, he gave a very special answer. Zheng Jiajun believes that Ferrari, in addition to having the most authentic sports car pedigree, is also the most capable of interpreting positive energy sports car. The big red body, the yellow logo is the two colors of the Chinese flag, and the steed is the portrayal of the new generation of Chinese power, as the president of the CCC Automobile Culture Club, Ferrari is definitely the right choice.
Many people who own a supercar stop the greatest pleasure at the stage of choosing and possessing it. When the supercar becomes a possession, its greatest value is to be used as a mutual display and comparison among friends and car enthusiasts. "Look, I also have this supercar." Zheng Jiajun, the "heavenly" people have their own special definition of Ferrari, he does not begrudge the expensive supercar as a wedding car or other activities with the car. In Zheng Jiajun's words, "I have never taken Ferrari only as a car, he is my partner, I do not want to buy it back and put it there, I want to maximize its value, only then we can work together to create a better future!
Jinan has a "porcelain doll" (brittle bone disease patients), the biggest wish is to see the sports car, Zheng Jiajun learned, driving to, not only let the "porcelain doll" to see the sports car, but also let him sit on the sports car; car team a friend! Divorced, 5-year-old child has been depressed, know that the child is a super Ferrari fan, Zheng Jiajun through half of Jinan City, just to let this little Ferrari fan show a smile. Friends do not understand, "you drive a Ferrari is to coax the child, the cost is too high, right?" Zheng Jiajun did not think, "No matter how expensive things, make a difference in order to have the value of existence, to realize other people's dreams, they are also very happy".
For this 28-year-old young man, the future is still a long way to go, and how many storms there are in the world is not yet known. But all of this in the self-proclaimed "can knock down the south wall" in front of the Jinan baby, all seem insignificant. Because of the companionship of the beloved Ferrari, this supercar aristocrat on the most colorful spiritual culture has long been embedded in his soul: "Between heaven and earth, let me gallop"!
Go for it, Jinan kids who drive sports cars! (Source: Beyond Magazine)
