When 40-year-old farmer-turned businessman Li Zhenqiang fell in love with horse riding 14 years ago, he did not have the faintest idea that one day he would qualify for the Olympics.
Li from Dongguan, Guangdong province, took up horse-riding in 1994 for leisure.
He later set up an equestrian club in Dongguan, a Pearl River Delta boomtown, and began to enter competitions in 1999.
