[edit]Growing Up Cheng Fei's father, Cheng Ligao, was a workshop dispatcher with a monthly salary of 500 yuan, and Xu Chunxiang was an ordinary worker in a tire factory. They lived in a 30 to 40 square meter silo and lived in poverty. 1988, Cheng Fei was born in Huangshi City, Hubei Province. Soon after her birth, Cheng Fei was hospitalized due to severe malnutrition, which worried Cheng Ligao and his wife. Cheng Ligao had studied martial arts for seven years when he was young, so he had the intention of giving his daughter a sports initiation when she was very young. When Cheng Fei learned to walk, Cheng Ligao often take his daughter jumping steps, jumping up and down, jumping well, find a round sign, simulating the TV camera to his daughter awards. Cheng Ligao recalled that his daughter was particularly keen on "awards" as a child. Cheng Fei managed to grow to 2 years old, still yellow and skinny, shorter than children of the same age. Cheng Ligao had to worry about his daughter's health. When Cheng Fei was more than 3 years old, Cheng Ligao decided to send her to learn a sports program. Cheng Ligao husband and wife are not tall, at that time to see the "small" Deng Yaping dominant ping pong, he decided to send his daughter to learn table tennis. At the Huangshi Amateur Sports School, Coach Ke Jin recommended that Cheng Fei learn gymnastics from Coach Yao Juying. Thus, Cheng Fei embarked on the road of gymnastics. Hearing that his daughter had a talent for gymnastics, Cheng Ligao couldn't help but be happy. Understanding, Cheng Ligao's knowledge of gymnastics gradually increased, and he was able to give Cheng Fei a few pointers on her movements. Can not afford to buy gymnastics equipment, he was simple, hanging on the beams of the house bar, a bar on behalf of the single bar; two bars, that is, the double bar; with chalk on the ground to draw two lines, became Cheng Fei's balance beam. To be a good gymnast, one must first overcome some physical deficiencies. Cheng Fei walks with hereditary "external eights". On the first day she entered the gym, the coach said, "When you enter the gym, you should walk on your tiptoes so that you don't walk in eights." Little Cheng Fei heard, obediently tiptoe up. However, the "eight feet" could not be corrected at once. One night, Cheng Ligao brought a few feet of white cloth and said that he would tie up the child's legs from the knee down, and after a few months of tying them up, he would be able to correct the eight steps. His wife was very worried about this. But Cheng Ligao said that even if he didn't practice gymnastics, he would have to correct his daughter's posture for the sake of her future beauty. The next day, only 4-year-old Cheng Fei cried and refused to tie again. In order to let the child can adhere to, the couple accompanied their daughter also put their own legs tied up with white cloth. After a few months of this kind of binding, Cheng Fei's "external eights" were finally corrected. After practicing for a year, because she felt too hard, one day, Cheng Fei suddenly said to her mother, Xu Chunxiang: "Mom, as long as you don't let me practice gymnastics, I must study hard." Despite his heartache, the father recognized this path for his daughter, and the training persisted. Cheng Ligao's strictness towards his daughter was famous in the Huangshi Gymnastics School in those years. Sometimes small Cheng Fei do not want to practice, Cheng Ligao will be on the sidelines of the loud reprimand, and even mercilessly knocked his daughter a "chestnut". Sometimes Xiao Cheng Fei is angry with her father and refuses to practice anymore. At this time, the father "knocking" more powerful. See can't argue with father, small Cheng Fei stubbornness came up, in tears continue to do. However, after practicing all the items on that day, she was as if nothing had happened. Cheng Fei now calls back and often tells her mom, "Luckily, Dad was strict at that time, or there would be no today." When Cheng Fei was seven years old, she entered the Wuhan Sports Institute. At first, she was self-funded, and the monthly tuition and living expenses added up to 1,000 yuan. But at that time, Cheng Ligao and his wife's salaries added up to only 1,000 yuan. In order to earn some living expenses, the couple bought a knitting machine and knitted gloves for sale after work every day, earning 20 cents for a pair of gloves. One day, Coach Zhao Hanhua found Cheng Fei moping during training. When asked, she learned that her family had not yet sent her living expenses. Coach Zhao was very saddened: "Such a good seedling, and so diligent, can not let her because of these things affected." He then discussed with another male coach, each of whom took out one-third of his salary to help Cheng Fei. Seeing that everyone was concerned about themselves, Cheng Fei practiced even harder. A year later, Cheng Fei on behalf of the Sports Institute to participate in awards. Every time she was the youngest, but the most beautiful movements, the highest specifications. Cheng Fei's achievements can be seen for all to see, Zhao Hanhua coach to the Academy report, said Cheng Fei is "the Academy for many years the most rare good seedling, requesting that she be given the official treatment of the Academy students". The Academy approved the report, so the 8-year-old Cheng Fei became the youngest Wuhan Sports Academy "junior college students", not only do not have to pay tuition, there are living expenses. Coach Zhao told reporters: "Over the years, Wuhan Sports Institute this special treatment, only Cheng Fei a case." Once hesitant about vaulting In the first two years of the national team, Cheng Fei is small, relatively weak technology, not too noticeable. 2004, another team member can not participate in the Olympic Games due to injury, Cheng Fei gained a valuable opportunity to represent the Chinese team to go to the Olympic Games in Athens. She had no prior experience in world competitions, and in the free gymnastics competition, Cheng Fei finished fourth. After the Athens Olympics, Cheng Fei's coach decided to let her focus on vault training. At first, Cheng Fei was a little worried, and once said to her father, "My strength is free gymnastics, but now my coach is asking me to shift to vault." At that time, vaulting was China's traditional weak point, before China had no women's vaulting world champion. Cheng Ligao told his daughter, "There is nothing wrong for you to listen to the coach. There are more female free gymnasts, so the competition is naturally fierce. Vaulting female competitors are fewer, your leg strength is strong, vaulting is well practiced, easier to succeed." In 2005, Melbourne, the 38th World Gymnastics Championships, Cheng Fei a surprise, not only won China's first women's vault world champion, refreshing the history of China's women's vaulting program, her new action is also named by the international sports world "Cheng Fei jump".
