Introduction: In an interview with reporters, Wang Meng had a very classic speech, she said, "I don't want the second, I want the champion."
Pedaling, sprinting, pressing the line, in Turin in 2006, Wang Meng put on the national flag, let the world know this chinese girl with a capable style and full of fighting spirit.
Then came a precious Winter Olympic gold medal, and on the 500-meter track, a new overlord was announcing her coming. She once said: "Whoever wants second, I don't want second, I want to win." ”
The winter of this year was still cold, and the pressure increased sharply in the face of the Chinese team, which had lost the gold rush twice. "I just started running, and when I lost, I lost. As long as I ran past her in the first three steps of Radanova, she would never win me. This is what the 21-year-old youngster Wang Meng said to the coach. The situation was not good for her, and she decided to give it a go.
In the semifinals of the women's 500m, Wang Meng was divided into the third lane. The first was Roberto, Canada's best 500 meters, and the second was the world record holder, Radanova, who had outstanding explosive power. In the five-hundred-meter race of the whole season, Wang Meng never ran Ladanova at the beginning, and all of them completed the overtaking of Ladanova in the back.
Starting with three knives, Wang Meng ran past Ladanova with the first knife, and directly grabbed the first place from the third lane, and Ladanova's self-confidence was greatly hit.
In the 500-meter final, Wang Meng once again ran to the front of Radanova, did not give her a chance, and slid the whole way to the finish line.
This time in the Winter Olympics, Wang Meng won a gold, a silver and a bronze in three individual events, and when a reporter asked her how she felt at that time eight years later, she said that she had already achieved fame: As a newcomer who participated in the Olympic Games for the first time, this result has been very good.
As a world champion, Radanova is not willing to be second on the stage of the Winter Olympics. Sometimes the competition for the world championship seems very simple, who is more confident, who is more courageous, who can overcome the limits of the human body with more hard work - who has more "I don't want the second, I want the championship!" "Domineering. The competition between the two was extremely fierce, and the two players in the last half of the lap gradually could not keep up with the rhythm, and they continued to game the ownership of the champion in front. But Wang Meng did not make a mistake, she defended her oath with a domineering attitude, and four years ago, when she saw her predecessors fighting on the field, she had already decided that she wanted to make the Chinese team stronger.
The 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City was the beginning of China's rise, but it was a difficult time for us to completely subvert the position of South Koreans on the speed skating throne. At that time, Wang Meng, as a small team member, witnessed the first gold of the Chinese team's Winter Olympics, but she understood more clearly that the four predecessors did not achieve complete release, and China's ice and snow speed skating still had a long way to go. At that time, China's four golden flowers had the strength of gold medals in all four events. However, there are many psychological and tactical differences between a team like China, which has never won a winter Olympic gold medal, and a team like South Korea, which often wins a winter Olympic gold medal.
At the 10th Winter Games in 2003, Wang Meng and three national team sisters, Dayang Yang, Wang Chunlu and Fu Tianyu, stood on the 500-meter final track at the same time, and finally defeated the opponent and won the championship. But even at this time, the light of the four golden flowers is still dazzling, so that many people do not realize that Wang Meng has turned out to be the world and is about to dominate the future world short track field.
Xin Qingshan, head coach of the national team, said in his evaluation of Wang Meng: Although the young general Wang Meng won the gold medal in the women's 500 meters and also won two thirds in the World Cup, from the perspective of comprehensive quality, it is difficult for her to replace Yang Yang and provoke the beam of China's short track. ”
But then she did, and she not only provoked the girder of China's short-track speed skating, but also proved her hegemonic strength and status. In 2006, she announced to the world: Wang Meng has come - Wang Meng has done it - China has done it -
She single-handedly took the women's 500m to the 43-second mark. Wang Meng broke through everything, and she personally created her own era. Her time is really what she looks like herself, passionate, breakthrough, enterprising, domineering rule - 500 meters is her field, in her field unfolding, no one can catch up with her - "I let you can't keep up with me, I let you which country, you can't keep up with me." ”
Back in Turin in 2006, Wang Meng was still thinking about something in the much-anticipated short track speed skating. For Wang Meng, who had just stepped off the Olympic stage, there was only one thought in my mind: although I won the championship, this was far from enough, I not only wanted to take the first, I wanted to get all the first.
In the Battle of Turin, the short track speed skating team got a total of one gold, one silver and three bronze, Wang Meng was not satisfied, she thought in her heart, in four years, I will come again, I will definitely come again -
She shed her ignorance, and finally stepped into the shining hall and became a hegemonic being.
