Why doesn t Yao Ming have a tattoo? What do tattoos mean to players?

Because Yao Ming's education since childhood did not allow him to do this, his family is more old-fashioned and traditional. Tattoos are a symbol of personality for players, and generally speaking, star athletes of Asian descent generally do not have tattoos. We all know that the first person in the history of the Chinese men's basketball team is undoubtedly the generation of Tianjiao in the former NBA;

Yao Ming, the current president of the Basketball Association. Back then, Yao Ming was an athlete who sweated on the court; Today, Yao Ming is the leader of the operation order off the court. The only thing that hasn't changed is Yao Ming's decades-long love for basketball.

Of course, many old fans who have watched Yao Ming play may have found that Yao Ming does not have tattoos on his body like other NBA players. Moreover, not only Yao Ming did not, but other Chinese players who entered the NBA, Zhou Qi, Wang Zhizhi, Yi Jianlian, they did not.

What does this mean? Tattoos are actually in conflict with the traditional culture of our country. Chinese culture, in essence, is Confucian culture, Confucius said back then, "the body is skin, the parents do not dare to damage" Therefore, the act of tattooing, in the traditional Chinese value, is a big rebellion.

Moreover, Yao Ming was originally born in a more traditional, old-school family. His parents also did not allow Yao Ming to get tattoos. In 2003, when Yao Ming was interviewed by **, he said that he once proposed to his parents that he was going to have a tattoo, but he was scolded for it.

Of course, looking at the NBA, the phenomenon of tattoos is actually quite common. In particular, some black players, who have been embraced since childhood, are advocating the idea of freedom and emancipation of individuality, so they often use tattoos as a symbol of individuality.

Twenty years ago, Allen Iverson, the head of the four quarterbacks and countless fans and fans, was covered in dense tattoos from top to bottom. Coupled with Iverson's unique hairstyle and unruly personality, he has become the god of war in the hearts of many fans.

Yao Ming is a relatively reserved player who doesn't like to be too flamboyant. Tattoos are a form of expression taken by players in order to reflect their personality, showing a relatively flamboyant character. Some people have tattoos on their bodies about their beliefs, lovers, etc.

Tattoos mean different things to every player. Some people will like it, and some people will reject it.

Because Yao Ming doesn't like tattoos, tattoos mean a hobby for players, because only people who like tattoos will get tattoos.

Yao Ming is Chinese and has no special culture for tattoos, while in the United States, tattoos mean a lot to them, freedom, equality, faith, goals, etc., to motivate themselves.

Although Yi Jianlian's achievements are not as high as Yao Ming's, his achievements and current strength are the pillars of Chinese basketball, and his ability is enough to make him proud and show his personality, but he is the same, turning all the external personality and external strength into his own basketball strength and dedication to Chinese basketball.

It always needs to be strong inside, and everything dispensable can become boring.

You may see that some athletes have tattoos on their bodies, and some athletes don't have tattoos, such as Yi Jianlian and Yao Ming don't have tattoos, so why don't they have tattoos on them?

For example, Yao Ming is said to be because his mother doesn't like to let him get tattoos, so he didn't get tattoos, while Yi Jianlian didn't have tattoos, maybe it was purely because of personal preference, and he didn't like tattoos himself, so he didn't get tattoos。After all, China's 5,000-year-old traditional culture is mainly subtle, and there will not be many tattoos on the body.

Or people like Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian are famous athletes in China, and they may represent China in many events or some ambassadors, and they are role models for many people, so they don't leave large tattoos on their bodies to spread a positive message to young peopleOf course, it doesn't mean that having a tattoo is a heinous thing, but that they, as a well-known figure, should play a good leading role, have a clean and sunny image, and set an example for everyone.

And some athletes have tattoos on their bodies, and they generally get tattoos of something meaningful. It doesn't mean anything, but they do have a tattoo that matches their own life experience or life experience or their own emotional experience, will not tattoo a random thing, every tattoo will have a story behind it, athletes are no exception, we can't look at them with a discriminatory eye.

No tattoos don't mean anything, and having tattoos doesn't mean anything, and we should all look at these athletes with an eye that encourages developmentAfter all, to win glory for the country, the most important thing is to raise our five-star red flag and sound our national anthem at the competition.

Yao Ming's mother didn't let him get a tattoo, but Yi Jianlian didn't want to get a tattoo, which had no practical significance.

The traditional concept of the Chinese led to Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian not having tattoos. Tattoos are also a form of faith for players.

Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian are introverted and conservative and are more resistant to tattoos. For players, tattoos mean wild, unrestrained, chic, and easy to attract attention.

When it comes to professional sports athletes, I believe that many netizens will associate them with high salaries for the first time, indeed, as one of the groups with the highest ability to absorb money today, the average annual salary of athletes is much higher than that of ordinary white-collar workers, especially basketball and football players in the three major balls, top players are worth hundreds of millions at every turn, and even the bonuses for a game are as high as hundreds of thousands, so that most players will buy luxury cars and mansions after signing a big contract, even shows his personality to the outside world through tattoos, including outstanding athletes such as Zhu Fangyu and Wang Dalei, and the culture of tattoos is quite common among NBA players.

But looking at the Chinese sports world, there is also a clear stream of sedan chairs, they have never forgotten the original intention of the athletes, even after achieving a certain success, they did not choose to tattoo the dragon and the tiger to show their personality, among which the basketball Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian are the best examples. Do you have to deny a player if you have a tattoo? In fact, as far as the field of athletes is concerned, tattoos can indeed show personality, tattoos are a form of art, athletes on a strong body tattoo may be able to add charm to a certain extent, attract the attention of the outside world, or the tattoo may have a special meaning to the player itself, so whether there is a tattoo is not the absolute benchmark to determine the quality of a player.

Just like the 08th Chinese men's basketball team, Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian can be said to be the two most influential leaders in team history, they do not have clearly visible tattoos on their bodies, the author guesses that they may not need to attract the attention of the outside world through art, but want to devote more time and energy to basketball itself, which is also the thinking of old-school players.

But what is inversely proportional to the side mold spike is that Zhu Fangyu has a soft spot for tattoos, but who can question Zhu Fangyu's personal strength? As a player, he is one of the best forward players in the history of the Chinese men's basketball team, he can face James in the international arena to shoot three points outside, as a team executive, he has helped Guangdong dominate the CBA league through reinforcements and other means for two consecutive years, and successfully unlocked the hegemony of ten crowns after two consecutive championships, becoming the first team in CBA history to have a double number of championships, can this series of achievements negate the value of Zhu Fangyu?

So for basketball players and even the entire sports world, tattoos do not measure a person's value, anyone has the right to pursue art, just to say that in the eyes of the outside world, this needs to be based on performance, and capable people will be tolerated no matter what they do, just like Zhou Qi was caught eating eggs and scrambles to this day, but Zhu Fangyu posted pictures and drank skewers, but no one dared to question his dishes, it is easy to understand, athletes can get tattoos, but they must be based on the premise of playing results, Otherwise, the outside world will continue to magnify through the tattoo.

The culture is different, Westerners think that tattoos highlight personality, while in our country, we pay attention to the parents of the body, so there is none.

Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian, as Chinese, have been influenced by the idea that tattoos are bad boys since they were children, and they have no idea of tattoos when they go to the NBA.

This is related to the difference between Chinese and Western cultures, in Western culture, tattoos are very common things, but in our East it is generally difficult to accept. It has to do with the difference in concepts.

Because they are going to return to China for development. So they didn't dare to get tattoos. Mingchai and tattoos are a kind of sedan car type culture abroad, while Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian still follow the traditional culture of our country.

In China, the elders think it's bad. Yao Ming does not have a tattoo. They have received good family upbringing, social education and school education since childhood, and have good values and outlook on life.

There's nothing wrong with tattoos for athletes, just a way for young people to show their individuality! The Chinese national football team has put in place a clean-up of tattoos that are forbidden to be exposed during the game. When training with the national team this year, Zhao Rui covered up his tattoos.

I think tattoos represent individuality for athletes, but this is not encouraged.

1. China's cultural cognition

Tattoos are a normal phenomenon abroad, and most players get tattoos for remembrance or special significance! David Beckham, for example, has tattoos on almost every inch of his body, large and small, which is a way of their own culture. China attaches great importance to Confucianism, the golden mean!

A large part of this is due to the fact that tattoo culture is gradually becoming mainstream in China. Perhaps this means that young people are more open-minded, but for athletes, tattoos also have a special meaning, which may not be a good thing! Tattoos don't represent how strong they are, once upon a time, tattoos were a symbol of ability, and we love to look at people with tattoos with tinted glasses!

The main purpose of tattooed players is to show the fierce court.

Second, good value is caused

Because basketball is, after all, sports are in frequent contact with the body, so players will also subconsciously prompt, such as my tattoo, I grow a beard, basically through these mistakes to confuse opponents and show their appearance strong! So tattoos have gradually become a culture on the court! Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian are absolute leaders in the history of Chinese basketball.

Personally, I agree with Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian that they don't have tattoos. After all, players are public figures. If the tattoo culture is exposed to the public for a long time, it will definitely have a bad impact on the guidance of young children.

We have not yet reached a particularly open age to tattoo culture, we can learn about Western culture, but we can't blindly imitate Western culture, which is not a particularly wise choice! After talking about basketball players, let's talk about football players.

Finally, footballers with tattoos abroad can be seen everywhere. For example, David Beckham.

Because Yao Ming is a more conservative person, he also feels that tattoos are not necessary.

What else can I do, people don't want to get tattoos, you can't force people to get tattoos, tattoos are just a personal hobby, but people don't like it.

Why is Yao Ming so tall, but others are not so tall.

Among foreign players, the phenomenon of tattoos is very common, almost players get tattoos at a very young age, which is a kind of culture for them, a manifestation of personality. But for our players, it's not a necessary thing.

Tattoos are a cultural symbol for players and can bring mental strength to themselves, so many players choose tattoos.

Tattoos are a matter of human preference and are also culturally related. Chinese do not have the habit of tattooing, and for those players who have tattoos, tattoos can be a memorial, a testimony, or used to pretend to be cool.

For Chinese, tattoos are not as tolerant as Europe and the United States, have been a public figure in China, if the tattoo will have some bad effects, but for fans is meaningless, after all, the court depends on strength to speak.
