At the scene of the Olympic Forest Park Torch Relay, the second torchbearer attracted much attention, he was Jing Haipeng, an astronaut of the astronaut brigade of the Chinese People's Liberation Army.
"To be able to participate in the Torch Relay is really a dream come true!" Jing Haipeng said that at the same time, he felt that the responsibility on his shoulders was heavier. He said that this torch represents the absolute loyalty of all astronauts of the space brigade to the motherland and the infinite love of all astronauts for the motherland.
On December 26, 2021, the Beijing Winter Olympics ushered in the 40-day countdown, and the demonstration activity of "bringing 300 million people to participate in ice and snow sports" was held in the Shijingshan Winter Olympic community, and Jing Haipeng was awarded the title of "Ice and Snow Sports Promotion Ambassador". He said that after becoming an "ice and snow sports promotion ambassador", he has a deeper understanding of various types of ice and snow sports, and he plans to learn more ice and snow sports in the future. In space, astronauts will also carry out physical training, Jing Haipeng said, hope that ice and snow sports equipment will also be brought to space in the future, so that astronauts in space to participate in ice and snow sports is his dream.
After participating in the torch relay mission, Jing Haipeng had a deeper understanding of the Olympic spirit and the spirit of spaceflight. In his view, the torch relays the Olympic spirit of "faster, higher, stronger, more united" and "unity, friendship, peace and progress", and is also the spirit of manned spaceflight in the new era of "special ability to endure hardships, special ability to fight, special ability to tackle key problems, and special dedication". "Both spirits are the crystallization of human civilization." He said.
Jing Haipeng was one of the first astronauts on the mainland. He studied diligently, trained assiduously, challenged the limits, and surpassed himself; he is currently the astronaut who has carried out the most manned missions and the longest flight time on the mainland, and has achieved the miracle of the three rounds of the firmament and made important contributions to the mainland's manned space industry.
Jing Haipeng has always adhered to the belief that "the interests of the motherland are above all else", regarded the cause of the party and the state as higher than the sky, and regarded the mission of the flying sky as more important than life. He often said: "As long as the mission requires, I am always ready to accept the selection of the motherland, which is the mission and glory of Chinese astronauts." ”
