Xu Jiayu, the runner-up in the men's 100m backstroke at the Rio Olympics, has recently become popular again, and although he has gradually faded out of the national team, as a former leader of the Chinese team, the topic of Xu Jiayu has always occupied a place in the domestic sports world. In an interview program, Xu Jiayu, who appeared in front of the camera again after the Shaanxi National Games, successfully attracted everyone's attention. He counted 50 videos of watermelons in one go, making everyone laugh. Some netizens exclaimed, "Worthy of being a world champion, the lung capacity of swimmers is really not ordinary"! Previously, the intimate interaction between Xu Jiayu and a female journalist who was popular all over the country also made everyone think about it.
At the Tokyo Olympics, Xu Jiayu failed to go further in the final of his main event 100m backstroke, and finally only finished fifth. In the mixed relay final, together with his teammates such as Zhang Yufei and Yan Zibei, he also rubbed shoulders with the championship podium. After the Olympic Games, Xu Jiayu said in an interview that for the Paris Olympic Games, he now feels that it is a distant dream, after all, his physical state has declined. Wang Shun, who won the men's 200m medley event at the Tokyo Olympics, successfully succeeded Xu Jiayu and led the men's team to the Paris Olympic Games.
Due to the failure to defend the title, Xu Jiayu's popularity has plummeted, and after the Olympic Games, among the male athletes in the domestic sports world, Su Bingtian, Ma Long and Fan Zhendong are the most popular. After a few months, Xu Jiayu, who was in a period of recuperation, once again met with everyone with a new attitude. In front of the camera, he counted 50 watermelons in a row, making everyone say that they were unbelievable. Judging from the video, Xu Jiayu's mental state is very good, and he has been smiling and interacting with everyone, and the atmosphere of the scene is very harmonious.
Many netizens relished his ability to count 50 watermelons in one go, and even some people challenged with great interest, but they were fruitless. Some people joked, "Comparing lung capacity with swimmers, that is not fun to ask for." In addition to the watermelon anecdotes, Xu Jiayu also has a relationship with a female journalist whose popularity has soared. Before that, Wang Bingbing himself also specially interviewed Xu Jiayu, and Xu Jiayu, as an emotional master, also showed everyone his "sister-stirring" technique in front of the camera. He said that what he was most looking forward to after the game was to accept an interview with Wang Bingbing, and also shyly hinted whether he could add a friend to the other party.
After the release of the video, netizens were envious of Xu Jiayu and Wang Bingbing's sweet "CP". They all said that these two people are really too sweet. It is worth mentioning that Xu Jiayu also posted a photo of himself and the other party on his personal social platform. As the golden sign of the Men's 100m and 200m Backstrokes of the Chinese Swimming Team, Xu Jiayu successfully won the championship at the 2019 Swimming World Championships. For the new season, Xu Jiayu said that he will continue to do a good job every day, follow the coach for restorative training, and strive to get good results again. Let's look forward to the "turtle" returning to the top!
