Hello everyone, I'm Mommy.
These days of chasing the Winter Olympics, in addition to Gu Ailing, the name Yusheng Knot String has been brushing the screen.
The day that Gu Ailing successfully attacked the first gold was also the day when Yusheng knotted the string debuted.
As a result, the hot search list was snatched away by him in an instant...
Countless people's eyes have long been focused on this international top figure skater, and everyone is looking forward to what kind of surprises the boy who has won the Winter Olympics for two consecutive years and created the history of Japanese figure skating will bring to people in the third championship competition?
Unfortunately, Yu Yu made a mistake in the first match. Although he successfully advanced, he was originally a favorite to win the championship, and he only ranked eighth.
However, when I opened Weibo, I didn't see harsh criticism and ridicule, almost all of them were encouragement and heartache.
This treatment is not worse than that of Chinese athletes.
Today, in the figure skating men's free skating competition, Yu Yusuke challenged the 4A to fall down when he landed, and finally finished fourth in the total and missed the medal.
Once again, the whole network is distressed, encouraged, thankful, said goodbye...
I really can't understand, why is other people so popular?
I went with curiosity to get to know this Japanese athlete.
After being moved, I finally understood: why there are so many "mother powders" in Yusheng knots.
And this is also a story worth telling our children.
(Not because of this face~)
01
Today's figure skating champion,
Once an asthmatic teenager
Yusei Yuki was 4 years old and touched the ice, and his parents wanted him to strengthen his body.
Because he was an asthmatic, he was out of breath after a few steps, coughed until he couldn't sleep at night, couldn't go to kindergarten, and was even more unsuitable for participating in competitive sports.
At the end of a match in 2012, Yusei yusuke collapsed to the ground, not because of physical weakness, but because of an asthma attack, which made it difficult to breathe.
Unlike the genius he imagined, he was not born strong.
Yusheng Yuxian showed his "talent" early on:
In daily training, no matter how many times he fell, he never cried out in pain, did not accept defeat, and did not admit it.
He said: Efforts will not necessarily succeed, but efforts will not be in vain.
Take the action of jumping around, for example, the average athlete practices 20 to 30 times a day, and he has to jump 60 times.
It's not that other athletes are less diligent than Yusei, but because they have to endure pain that is unbearable for ordinary people.
Anyone who has seen a figure skating competition knows that this is a sport with a high turnover rate.
Even a top player like Yusei Yushin has to fall over and over again after practicing a difficult move like jumping for 4 weeks for the first time.
Jump dozens of times and only succeed a few times.
Because the body has to complete the rotation at high speed, people are hit by several times their weight when they land.
However, in Yusei's view, suffering double pain will also double happiness.
Yusei Yuki has traveled to Canada to learn advanced technology.
What is admirable is that he has always maintained the self-discipline of an ascetic monk, preparing for the college entrance examination while training, and has not even been to the famous attractions close to him...
In 2012, Yusuke Hano not only won the bronze medal in the world championships, but he was also admitted to Waseda University, a well-known university in Japan, as a cultural student.
At the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Habu, who had already made his mark in various Grand Prix, won his first Olympic gold medal.
In the interview, he said that he planned this day when he was in elementary school.
Later, someone turned out a video of an interview many years ago, when he was 12 years old and shy and determined:
"My goal is to get an Olympic gold medal."
Why can a child have such a strong belief?
In addition to the innate character, it is also inseparable from the teachings of parents.
Yusei Yushin was less than ten years old when he won the national championship in the junior category.
When he became famous at a young age, he became what many mothers called "other people's children", and many mothers at that time wanted a son who was as good as him.
In the face of praise, young him, has a rare sobriety: "I also have a lot of shortcomings, but don't just stare at the shortcomings of children." ”
Yusei Yusuke also wanted to give up skating because of his greed for fun and because he hated training.
Hearing the child's thoughts, his parents did not force or scold, but explained the stakes and told the child that he could give up.
After all, this sport is very expensive, once practiced all the costs need to be borne by themselves, and their family is not rich.
By implication, if you decide to go down this path, don't look back.
Yusei hesitated for a moment, then told his parents the answer.
Since then, the family has been prepared.
His mother, hand-sewing his close-fitting race costume, picked him up and dropped him off rain or shine.
In 2011, a magnitude 9 earthquake struck Sendai, Japan, and a city was instantly destroyed by a tsunami, including a training ground.
Just when he wanted to give up, it was his parents who ran around, looking for a venue for him, a coach, and encouraging him to continue the sport.
The sensible Yusheng Yushin knows that only by training seriously and diligently can he be worthy of everything his parents have paid.

Want to be a sparkling teenager,
In the end, the will to be superhuman must be honed
If you want to know about Habu knots, you have to go to see the classic that was hailed by figure skating audiences as the "Battle of Blood Charms".
At the 2014 World Figure Skating Grand Prix in Shanghai, Yusheng Yuxian showed his strong style to the world and completely conquered the audience.
Before the game that day, the contestants began their final preparation exercises, and Yu yu also slid into the field to warm up.
Just as he was about to get up and jump, Yan Han, a Chinese player who was sliding at high speed, bumped into him, and Yusheng immediately lost his center of gravity and was shot several meters away.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the accident, blood was already flowing around his neck, and Yu sheng was curled up on the ice and lay on the ice in pain.
According to the post-match news, the collision caused 7 injuries to Yu yusuke's body, including a concussion.
But he only temporarily withdrew, using medical equipment like a "stapler" to hastily stitch up the wound, and then returned to the sidelines to prepare for battle.
The coach persuaded and urged him over and over again:
Don't be too strong, hurry up and retire
He is only 19 years old and has been coming to Japan for a long time
An inconsequential game, there is no need to gamble with the body
……
Although his heart was also full of fear, Yu Sheng did not want to just shrink back.
He told the coach that man, if he dies, he will die on the field.
As a result, the figure skating arena, which has always been known for its aesthetic beauty, staged an extremely tragic performance.
At that moment, Yu Yusei was like a male protagonist who came out of the manga and resolutely met the challenge.
The show was doomed to be imperfect, and the pain in his body could not support him to complete one difficult jump after another.
8 times in the air, 5 times in the fall.
With a song "Phantom of the Opera", Yusheng knots fell down again and again, climbed up again and again, jumped and rotated again and again, and the audience exclaimed in pain again and again...
His sharp eyes, blood oozing from his face, and successive heavy falls inadvertently pushed that poignant beauty to a climax.
He still held out until the last moment, refused the support of the staff, and stubbornly walked down the ice rink.
Final results announced, Silver Medal!
Yu Sheng knotted his face and cried bitterly, the taut string in his heart finally relaxed, and his body collapsed, almost being carried out of the venue.
CCTV commentator Chen Ying once commented that he said:
"Every game of Yu Yu is a game with an all-out mentality.
Before the cherry blossoms bloom, they are determined to wither. ”
After the game, the team of Yu Yusei revealed:
In order to improve his grades, he changed his technical movements on the spot, increased the difficulty, and completely left his body behind...
A 19-year-old teenager has fully realized what is the strong mental strength of an athlete.
In fact, The Feather String has not always been so strong.
At the 2012 All-Day Championship, he won the championship by defeating his predecessor, Oura Takahashi.
But the Japanese people believed the rumors and even cursed him for breaking his leg during the game...
Obviously, he has already won the gold medal, but what he got was questioning and insults.
Yu Sheng on the podium was very aggrieved in his heart, and there was no smile at all, and at that time he also began to understand:
The sports arena is full of discrimination and prejudice, and so is life.
If you want to get the approval of more people, you can only force yourself to be strong and force yourself to be perfect.

Want to be a really good person,
You must first learn to be human
There's a hot topic these two days —
Why can Yusheng Yuxin be respected beyond nationality in China?
As the saying goes: start with appearance, fall into talent, loyal to character.
Yusei Yuki is not only handsome in appearance, he is humble and gentle, especially with Chinese players.
When he collided with Yan Han, a Chinese player, he returned to the field to find the other party to apologize and ask about the injury.
Finding that The Chinese player Jin Boyang took the anti-national flag when he received the award, he took the initiative to help adjust.
When he saw the Chinese players complete the wonderful performance, he even rushed to the stage excitedly to celebrate together.
Yusuke Yusuke once encouraged young athletes who also suffered from asthma:
When you are weak, don't compare yourself with others, don't complain, and try to overcome it.
At the 2014 Sochi Olympics, although he won the gold medal, he made many mistakes in the free skating stage.
So he practiced humbly and hard, and finally brought "Yin and Yang Division" to the audience in Pyeongchang after 4 years, a perfect performance.
CCTV commentary Chen Ying described it like this: Rong Yan is like jade, his posture is like a pine, and he is like a dragon.
At the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, Yusheng Yuxian revealed his goals early.
Instead of the three consecutive titles expected, he wants to push the limits of humanity at his last Winter Olympics and complete the 4A (Axel's four-way jump) that no one has ever done in an official game.
This boldness and pattern is amazing!
The latest information shows that the 4A made by yusheng knot string in Beijing was recognized by the International Skating Federation, creating human history.
The whole network is boiling! Congratulations Tosei, the goal has been achieved!
A person, who can most impress others, must be outstanding cultivation before the achievements.
Tough on the field, humble off the field.
How can such an athlete not be respected?
I have seen a netizen's evaluation of Yusheng's knot:
"Compared to him, I never seem to have really tried my best at anything.
The life I had to live was like a fake in front of him, and I trembled with shame.
And thank you for letting me see the living, something more real and precious than the so-called miracle —
It is the original intention of carrying it through to the end and never giving up. ”
As Yusei Yuki said:
"If you can't do it, do it until you can do it;
After doing it, it will continue to be perfect;
Once you've done it, you can continue to do it until you do it perfectly no matter how many times you do it. ”
This sentence is suitable for every child in this world with ideals!
Light up "Watching", thank you for the strength brought to us by the Feather String, and may all children with dreams spread their wings and soar!
