The winter Olympics short track speed skating men's 1000m Group A final was played, and the athletes participating in the competition were China's three dragons: Wu Dajing, Ren Ziwei and Li Wenlong, and Hungary's Liu Shaolin and Liu Shaoang. In the previous semi-finals, Ren Ziwei, Lee Wen-yong and South Korea's Hwang Dae-hyun were in the same group. Huang Daxian was the first to pass the group, but was subsequently convicted of fouls, so that Ren Ziwei and Li Wenlong, who ranked in the bottom 2, had to advance to the final of Group A with the first two places.
In the other semi-finals, Wu Dajing, Liu Shaolin, Liu Shaoang and South Korea's Lee Junrui were in the same group. At the beginning of the race, Wu Dajing chose to follow the tactics, closely following Liu Shaolin, Liu Shaoang and Li Junrui, and in the last two laps, Wu Dajing rushed to third place and crossed the finish line in third place. However, the referee then awarded second-placed Li Junrui a foul, so that Liu Shaoang, who had previously ranked third, could advance to the final of Group A.
In the final 1000m Group A final, Liu Shaolin, Liu Shaoang, Ren Ziwei, Wu Dajing li wenlong stood on the field. At the time of the first shot, the 5 people were suddenly recalled halfway through the game due to a field problem. Due to the tactics deployed by the coach in the game, Li Wenlong was praised by the former world champion Wang Meng: everyone remembers our "little son", ah, in order to carry out their own tasks even broke the ice knife.
On the second shot, Ren Ziwei rushed out first, and then Liu Shaolin overtook, and Li Wenlong followed them. In the end, Liu Shaolin had an advantage of 0.04 seconds to force Ren Ziwei to rush through the finish line. But then the video showed that Liu Shaolin and Ren Ziwei were both suspected of reaching out when they crossed the final line. In the end, the referee ruled that Liu Shaolin was fined two yellow cards for fouls, and Ren Ziwei won the gold medal, which was also the second gold medal in the Chinese Winter Olympics and Li Wenlong's silver medal. The results show that Ren Ziwei 1:26.768, Li Wenlong 1:29.917. Congratulations to Ren Ziwei!

Ren Ziwei's gold medal was the first Winter Olympic gold medal won by the Chinese short track speed skating team in the men's 1000 meters event; 3. The project was first won by Chinese athletes in the top 2. It is truly worthy of being the ace of the Chinese Winter Olympics.
