(Beijing Winter Olympics) Interpretation of the list of Chinese delegations: set a number of records to welcome the most debuts
Beijing, 28 Jan (China News Service) -- The curtain on the Beijing Winter Olympics has not yet opened, and the Chinese legion has set a number of records -- the list of Chinese Winter Olympic delegations announced on the evening of the 27th contains the confidence and confidence of the Chinese team to create good results at home, and has also become the ultimate "code" for unlocking the suspense of the Chinese team's Beijing Winter Olympics record one by one.
- The largest scale.
The total number of Chinese sports delegations participating in the Beijing Winter Olympics was 387, the largest in history. Among them, there are 176 athletes, which is a significant increase over previous editions.
Prior to this, the largest number of participants in the Chinese delegation was at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, where the Chinese team sent a total of 91 athletes. It was also this ice and snow athlete with less than 100 people who won 5 gold, 2 silver, 4 bronze medals in Vancouver, a total of 11 medals, creating the best result of the Chinese delegation at the Winter Olympics so far.
- The most comprehensive coverage.
The Beijing Winter Olympics has a total of 7 major events, 15 sub-events and 109 minor events, and the Chinese delegation has won a total of 194 seats in 7 major events, 15 sub-events and 104 minor events (including 4 "in-competition" sub-events that need to be reconfirmed by other minor events of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games), achieving full coverage of all major events and sub-events of the Winter Olympic Games for the first time.
At the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics, the Chinese delegation participated in the competition for 53 sub-events in 5 major events and 12 sub-events, which was the largest number of chinese Winter Olympic teams participating in at that time. Compared with four years ago, the Chinese team has added 2 major events such as ice hockey and bobsleigh, 3 sub-events such as Nordic biathlon, and 47 sub-events such as speed skating women's 5000 meters, and the participation in small events has shown a jumping growth.
- Most debuts.
The Chinese team achieved the fullest coverage at the Beijing Winter Olympics, which also means that multiple events will make their Winter Olympic debuts in a few days.
When Beijing won the right to host the 2022 Winter Olympics in 2015, the Chinese team had nearly 1/3 of the development gap in 109 small events. After the successful bid for the Beijing Winter Olympics, China built nearly 30 new national teams, which enriched the Winter Olympic territory of the Chinese legion in 7 years.
The Chinese bobsleigh, bobsleigh and steel frame snow teams formed in 2015 have all participated in all events; the alpine ski team has achieved full coverage of its small events in the history of the Winter Olympics for the first time; the men's ice hockey, the Chinese team has entered the Winter Olympics for the first time; and the Nordic biathlon, Zhao Jiawen will become the first Chinese player to stand on the stage of the Winter Olympics. Snowboarding men's and women's slope obstacle skills and big jumps and other minor events, Chinese athletes will also appear on the Winter Olympics for the first time...
The Chinese legion has filled the gap in the Participation of the Winter Olympics in a number of events, and has achieved major breakthroughs ahead of schedule before the start of the competition.
At the Beijing Winter Olympics, another 131 athletes will make their Winter Olympic debuts. This data has exceeded the number of participants of the Chinese legion in previous Winter Olympics.

- The strongest lineup.
Matching the "largest size" of the Chinese Legion is the strongest lineup. The most popular of this list of China's ice and snow leaders are Wu Dajing (short track speed skating), the only Winter Olympic champion of the Chinese Legion, and Gu Ailing, a mixed-race girl who has become China's leader in freestyle skiing in this Olympic cycle.
In addition, Pyeongchang Winter Olympic silver medalists Sui Wenjing/Han Cong (figure skating), Ren Ziwei (short track speed skating), Liu Jiayu (snowboarding women's U-shaped track), Jia Zongyang (freestyle skiing men's aerial skills), bronze medalists Kong Fanyu (freestyle skiing women's aerial skills), Gao Tingyu (speed skating men's 500 meters) and so on will once again hit the medals at home.
With a record 26 World Cup champions Xu Mengtao (freestyle skiing women's aerial skills), the new season world cup champion Cai Xuetong (snowboarding women's U-shaped venue), two-time World Championships gold medalist Qi Guangpu (freestyle skiing men's aerial skills), etc., their identity as the "elders of the four dynasties" and the brilliant resume written by countless events will become the capital of dialogue with the Beijing Winter Olympic gold medals.
The appointment of new people is also another highlight of the Chinese delegation's list. At the Beijing Winter Olympics, 131 Chinese players participated in the Winter Olympics for the first time, accounting for 74.43% of all the players in the Chinese team. Among them, in addition to the 18-year-old Gu Ailing, as another representative of the new generation of Ice and Snow Sports in China, 17-year-old Su Yiming won the championship in the International Snow Federation Grand Jumping Race a month ago, achieving a breakthrough of zero World Cup gold medals for Chinese men's snowboarding.
In the "post-00s" phalanx with a large number of Chinese Winter Olympic delegations, the youngest He Jinbo (men's freestyle skiing) and Peng Qingyue (women's ski jumping) are both "post-05s". These rising stars are eager to add their "post-00s" label at the end of the Winter Olympics: the future is terrible.
——The most luxurious foreign teacher team.
Opening the list of Chinese delegations, most of the coaching teams of each team are foreigners - 51 foreign teachers, which also set a record for the number of foreign coaches in the Chinese Winter Olympic Team.
These foreign teachers from 19 countries, including the United States, Canada, Russia, France, Japan, and South Korea, have either been the children of the Winter Olympics themselves or have rich coaching experience. For example, in the Chinese biathlon team, the 8 golden kings of the Winter Olympics and the Norwegian star Bjør Darren served as the head coach, and his Belarusian wife, Domlacheva, who won 3 golds at the Sochi Winter Olympics, became a member of his coaching team.
Even the short track speed skating team in China's dominant event has invited South Korean gold medal coach Kim Sun-tae to sit. At the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics, the South Korean short track speed skating team, coached by Kim Sun-tae, swept away the haze of the Sochi Winter Olympics and won 3 gold, 1 silver and 2 bronze. It is reported that Kim Sun-tae also brought the coaching staff when he coached the Korean team.
The addition of these high-level foreign teachers is also one of the reasons why the Chinese Winter Olympic Team has set a number of records before the start of the competition. (End)
