Nicknames for international figure skaters and coaches by Chinese fans

[Weathergal]

Do you know how Chen Lu is viewed within China or by Chinese skating fans? For such a popular sport we didn't really hear anything about her at all during Beijing.

From what I have read, Chen Lu runs the national training group that Zhu Yi is in. Chen had( has?) a skating school in southern city ShenZhen. she wasn’t the main coach in national training center for a long time. She is more popular in North America than back in her home country, unlike s&z

She married Denis Petrov, and they have two children together. I think he coaches with her - or at least he did in their skating school. I don't know if he's coaching at the national training group with her.
