On February 8, he won the first Olympic gold medal in his life at Shougang Dadaitai Valley Ailing, while on the same day in the figure skating competition, Zhu Yi, a figure skater who also transferred from the United States to China, ended his Winter Olympic journey with two mistakes. After Zhu Yi's defeat, some keyboard warriors began to attack Zhu Yi online, on the grounds that naturalized players speculated on China in order to participate in the Olympics, replacing a Chinese sister.
A month earlier, a video circulated on the Internet of a beautiful and skilled beauty spinning gracefully on the wild ice rink.
Who is she? For sports fans who love figure skating, her figure is all too familiar, she is Chen Hongyi, the first sister of Chinese figure skating with a small name. Why did Chen Hongyi not participate in the Winter Olympic training camp, but appeared in the wild ice rink. It turned out that she was unsuccessful and missed the Beijing Winter Olympics. Zhu Yi was the only qualifier.
This is also the reason why many fans of the flame will attack Zhu Yi after Zhu Yi's failure. But if it is said that Zhu Yi replaced Chen Hongyi, it is indeed unfair. Who participated in the Winter Olympics was through an open selection match, and in the end Zhu Yi won with excellent performances, and if the fairness of that game was doubted, it would lose the basis for discussion.
In that game, Zhu Yi did play better, but it is true to admit that Chen Hongyi won this precious Olympic quota at the World Championships, but he failed to cash in his quota into his own Winter Olympic qualification.
Questioning Zhu Yi is whether she is a parallel importer and whether in order to take care of her, the Management of Chinese Figure Skating has promised an Olympic quota. If she is not naturalized as a Chinese citizen, she is eligible to compete in the United States. In fact, she was once the winner of the All-American Figure Skating Rookie Tournament, but there were also doubts, she won the championship when she was 16 years old, but basically the opponent was a younger junior player.
In any case, she had the opportunity to join the U.S. Olympic team, but she gave up this possibility and naturalized in China two years ago, which fully shows that Zhu Yi is not a sports speculator, and she, like Gu Ailing, has a heartfelt, love for China.
But after all, there are many accidents on the field, and after two consecutive mistakes, Zhu Yi shed sad tears. On the same day, Gu Ailing was dazzling in the Shougang Big Jump, and she won a gold medal worthy of the pride of all Chinese. At the press conference afterwards, Gu Ailing also talked about the naturalized little sisters who are also from the United States. Gu Ailing's high emotional intelligence once again appeared, Gu Ailing said: I think she has a good character, the ice is very remarkable, not only need to do the same difficult actions as me, but also have to step on the knife on her feet.
Gu Ailing also hopes that everyone will be more tolerant of Zhu Yi, "Athletes definitely want to show the best side, I hope everyone can understand." ”
It is worth noting that Gu Ailing and Zhu Yi are not only from the United States, but their fathers are also related to Harvard. Gu Ailing's father was a Harvard high-caliber student, and Zhu Yi's father, Zhu Chunsong, went to the United States to study in 1992 and received a doctorate at Harvard. In 2020, he returned to China to work as a professor at Tsinghua University and Peking University, and engaged in scientific research, so it can be said that Zhu Yi's father may have made greater contributions to China.
Such a family patriotic behavior is definitely not speculative behavior, the groundless questioning on the Internet is even more infuriating, Zhu Yi's figure skating career has just begun, a setback will make her work harder, I hope that in the future, Zhu Yi and Chen Hongyi can both fight for the country!
