A warm hug, a warm blessing, and a sincere friendship. After the final of the freestyle ski women's big jump on February 8, the champion Chinese team Gu Ailing and the third runner-up Swiss team Grimo walked together to the lost runner-up, France's Tess Ludder, to comfort the sad and weeping opponents.

"I am very grateful to her, it was Tess who jumped out of the women's highest difficulty move in the competition that inspired me to challenge and successfully complete." Gu Ailing said, "I told her that I wanted to share the gold medal with her. ”

The 3 post-00s players all hit the limits in this competition and encouraged each other, making the debut of the freestyle ski women's big jump in the Winter Olympics dazzling.

Powerful opponents, cast classic duels, and achieve wonderful matches. "Of course I'm a little sad, but I'm also proud of Ailing, it's a magical game." Tess sighed after the game.

In fact, when Gremore made a mistake in the last jump, Gu Ailing, who had already completed the game, sent a warm hug. "All of our players have a good relationship, and sharing our passion for the sport together can make us better players and push the women's big jump to new heights together." Grimau said.

Fair competition and mutual encouragement are the norm in the Winter Olympics. In the women's U-shaped field skill qualification tournament for snowboarding on the 9th, Cai Xuetong of the Chinese team advanced to the final as the third place in the preliminary round. She said she was motivated by the outstanding performance of Chloe King, the first player in the preliminaries, "She is a very talented player and I appreciate the ability she showed in the game." She has been constantly improving the difficulty, so that other players have the courage to break through themselves. ”

Chinese team player Jin Boyang, who performed well in the figure skating men's singles short program, admitted that the Japanese team player Yu Yu string to challenge axel, the most difficult, around the jump, this spirit is particularly worthy of admiration and learning. "He is already one of the world's top figure skaters, and he is constantly challenging and surpassing, which is the embodiment of the spirit of hard work." Jin Boyang said that he expects Yusheng to achieve his goals at the Beijing Winter Olympics, "If he has fulfilled this dream, I will congratulate him." ”

Competing with famous players can ignite the flame in the hearts of young players. In the women's 3,000m of speed skating, 22-year-old Chinese teenager Akhnar Adak set off with 49-year-old German Peschstein.

This is Peschstein's eighth participation in the Winter Olympics. Love, let her stick to training; dream, let her go all the way forward. After crossing the finish line far ahead of Ahanar Adak, he also reached out to the veteran, who was 27 years older than her, and said, "It's an honor to be in the same group as you!"

Facing the young Chinese player, Peshstein seems to recall his former self. She encouraged Akhnar Adak to say, "You're skating well, and your future is sure to get better and better." ”

Interaction enhances understanding and exchange deepens friendship. In the figure skating team competition, Wang Shiyue / Liu Xinyu danced with a beautiful melody, winning cheers from other countries and regions. "Many of the players who used to train together in Canada came to the Beijing Winter Olympics. On the field, we all cheered each other on. Liu Xinyu said that under the arena, he and Wang Shiyue will also warmly welcome these guests from afar, "We bought some souvenirs for them, and will also take them to taste Chinese food, hoping that they can harvest good memories of the Winter Olympics." ”

On the field are opponents, off the court are friends. After the curling mixed doubles round robin match between the Chinese team and the United States, the Chinese team combination Fan Suyuan / Ling Zhi presented the opponent with the "ice pier" Olympic commemorative badge, and 4 different shapes and strong Chinese style "ice piers" surprised the American team players.

"Curling used to be a social sport, and exchanging gifts is a tradition of our program." Ling Zhi said, "I hope to express the friendship between athletes by sending gifts. The two U.S. team athletes also fell in love with the "Ice Pier" badge in their hands, repeatedly looking at it. "This is the 'ice pier' on the lantern, the other day we spent the Chinese New Year in the Winter Olympic Village, there are also many lanterns, the atmosphere is particularly good." U.S. player Pres said. After the next match, the American team players gave Ling Zhi and Fan Suyuan the American team badge in return, and the flower of friendship quietly bloomed.

Under the banner of the five rings, the Olympic motto of "faster, higher, stronger - more united" shines brightly. Athletes from all over the world stepped onto the stage of the Winter Olympics, not only communicating freely in the language of sports, which crosses borders, but also opening their hearts, encouraging each other, and playing a beautiful and harmonious friendship movement.
