Wu Liufang, a thirty -year -old former Chinese national gymnast, has become an impact on social media to support their family. She turned to live streaming to “rewrite her fate” and was viral for her videos.
Wu has started to share bold dance videos online after switching from a sports teacher in 2019. She immediately faced criticism.
She was banned twice for violating the rules of the platform on the Chinese social media. However, she returned in January.
Wu, born in a village in the Chinese region of Guangxi, was the daughter of migrating workers. As the best gymnast, she rose to fame. For her world titles she won the nickname “Princess of the Balance of Beam”.
The neck injury in 2012 ended her Olympic dreams and retired in 2013. Wu later became a coach and a teacher before she turned to full -time in 2019.
Wu explained her decision during speech. She said her mother was seriously ill and her father had to borrow money for medical accounts. Her low salary caused her to feel helpless.
“I was sad when I saw my mother lying in bed. My salary was quite low. I asked myself,” Can I take good care of my parents when they get older? “,” South China Morning Post quoted Wu.
“At that time, I decided to rewrite my fate. I will be a live streamer,” she added.
In 2023, the Guan Chenchen Olympic champion criticized her dance videos, led to a ban on social media. When the WU account was renewed a week later, its followers jumped from 44,000 to 7 million.
Return after a ban
After a ban in December, WU lost 6 million followers. However, she returned and regained support.
The Douyin (Chinese version of the tiktoku) has almost 9 lakh followers and more than 80 lacquers. Now it publishes videos about Chinese culture and ethnic clothing. Her recent living currents were attracted by over a million viewers.
