My total athlete career is 11 years. I won three gold medals in international competitions, and won seven gold medals in China. The total number of medals is 46. In fact, I have no regrets to be a disabled cyclist because it has taught me to be strong and independent.
【Explanation】 Li Yuanyuan feels the most strongly about the word "strong". Li Yuanyuan told reporters that, like girls who love beauty, she also likes to wear beautiful skirts and carry school bags to school. However, a 13-year-old car accident shattered Li Yuanyuan's dream.

I was in a car accident when I was 13 years old. At that time, my leg had a comminuted fracture. At the medical level at that time, the doctor had amputated. (When) out of the hospital, at home, at first I was reluctant to meet people. I felt inferior. I didn't know how to face my classmates and partners at school, and then stayed at home for a year.
[Explanation] When a door is closed in life, another window will always be opened. The coach of the Jiangsu Provincial Handicapped Bicycle Team finds Li Yuanyuan and encourages her to fight hard. From that moment, Li Yuanyuan also slowly began to contact with new things.

When I was the most helpless, the Disabled Persons' Federation found me and told me to go to the Sixth Disabled Cycling Games. My thought at the time was that as long as I could get out of this house, I could go out, I could meet new friends, I could have something to do, and I should n’t be idle at home. At that time, I never thought about whether I could take it Champion, there is no such idea.
[Commentary] Real gold is not afraid of fire, and physical defects have not stopped this stubborn girl. In 2011, after retiring, Li Yuanyuan started a live broadcast to switch the life track. Talking about his entrepreneurial experience, Li Yuanyuan said that as long as he is not idle.

I'm just responsible for making videos and live broadcasts. I usually pack (seafood) in the afternoon and come back to live broadcast in the evening. In my opinion, the current live broadcast is very good.
[Explanation] In the face of the live broadcast, Li Yuanyuan sometimes seems unnatural. For new things, she also learns, explores, and grows.

At first, I was very new to this kind of live broadcast. After a long time, I slowly adjusted my mentality. Now, I also like this new media entrepreneurship model. What I mainly do is Lianyungang seafood and seafood, not only to ensure the quality of the products, but also to take into account the needs of customers, so I am constantly learning. I am the least popular world champion. I am the one who compares the axis. I must try what I want to do. As long as I think this is the right thing, I will do it first.
[Commentary] Li Yuanyuan told reporters that she yearns for the good in life and is willing to work towards the champion in life.

Without rings and earrings, like men in the seafood market, I like to wear jeans and cycling clothes. Through my own hands to fight for the future, I look forward to winning the crown of life for the sake of life.
