"Ground Commentary" Northern Network Review: The Chinese style of the Winter Olympics, have you got it?

Source: NetShijin Review

When the Chinese short track speed skating team won the championship, the enthusiastic and jubilant song "Chinese Fan" sounded over the stadium, accompanied by the shouts of athletes, the cheers of the audience and the fluttering of the national flag. This is the first gold of the Chinese delegation at this Winter Olympics, and the song is just the right expression of the excitement of all Chinese at this time. Style, can refer to style, quality, characteristics, etc. In this wonderful season of "Yang and Qi, Everything is Spring", China ushered in the "2022 Beijing Winter Olympics", an international event, which showed our oriental aesthetics to the fullest, which is our "Chinese style"!

On the helmet of the short-track speed skating star Wu Dajing, the face of The Great Saint Sun Wukong of Qitian is shining impressively, and the image of The Angry Eyes and The Golden Eye of Fire is the original worship in childhood, the spirit of resistance in the bones, and the totem of domineering and self-confidence!

The short-track speed skating sportswear adopts the design of red and black, the right shoulder golden dragon coiled, the left chest five-star body protection, both full of dynamics, but also without losing stability, always reminding athletes: in the face of this dangerous and accidental sport, there must be passion in the heart, and there must be roots under the feet.

The dragon totems also appear on the leggings of Chinese female ice hockey goalkeeper Zhou Jiaying and on the back of "Frog Princess" Gu Ailing. Zhou Jiaying firmly blocked the 5 penalties of the Japanese team with the "Dragon Leaping Tiger Leaping Wall Shield" and led the team to advance to the quarterfinals with her head held high; Gu Ailing soared on the high platform, and the golden dragon shone in the sun, accompanying her to the highest podium of skiing. They said that they hope that the athletes will give full play to the spirit of the dragon horse and achieve good results, and they also hope to show more traditional Chinese culture to the world.

In the ice dance competition, Wang Shiyue and Liu Xinyu's "Green Mountains and Green Waters" costumes were countless fans, inspired by the ancient Chinese painting "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains", which echoed the dance "Only This Green" at the Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Tiger. Men's clothing paints mountains, mighty and masculine, women's clothes paint water, smart and entangled, the two are like a flying dragon, rigid and soft and show the beauty of Chinese freehand.

In the double free skating competition, Jin Yang wore a Chinese red shirt and Peng Cheng wore a white Su embroidered dance dress, which matched the repertoire of the movie "Night Feast", like a smudged ink painting, conveying to the world the cultural symbols belonging to China. In addition to the Chinese style of clothing, the track design is also eye-catching. In the veneer slope obstacle course, the prop area consisting of the city wall, battlements, watchtowers and emblem buildings adds ornamentality to the competition in addition to the windproof function.

Under the blue blank clouds, the Ice and Snow Great Wall is magnificent and magnificent, and the white wall Dewa is small and chic. Some of the contestants stand on the Great Wall and feel the courage of the King's Landing; some float on the roof and feel the stimulation of the cornices. Sometimes they are like walking clouds and flowing water, sometimes they seem to be strolling leisurely, enjoying the game while also wandering in the ubiquitous Chinese culture. In the distance, the snow reveals the mountains and dots of greenery, adding to the heroic pride of Huashan's sword for this ice and snow event.

Chinese style is not only reflected in the external elements such as costumes and props, it has been deeply integrated into the blood of athletes. Su Yiming, who is less than 18 years old, has already made a splash, winning the silver medal in men's slope obstacle course in one fell swoop, creating a new history of China's Winter Olympics in this event, and completing his Olympic debut with a perfect performance. But when the outside world questioned the referee's low score, Su Yiming himself did not care, he said that he had a lot of fun, and he was very satisfied to be able to compete on the same stage with his idol. At that moment, in this good teenager who "fought the tiger and went up the mountain", the Chinese model was the joy of "seeing all the Chang'an flowers in one day", and it was also the perseverance of "the teenager was negative and strong, and he was fierce and sometimes".

Three players from the Chinese team reached the final competition of the men's 1000 meters of short track speed skating at the same time, but only one gold medal was awarded. When Wu Dajing, who was the fiercest sprint, felt physically exhausted, he gently touched Ren Ziwei, as if to say, "Brother, it's up to you!" Ren Ziwei understood and rushed forward with all his strength, followed by Li Wenlong, who was both fighting and protecting. At that moment, the Chinese model was the pattern of "you win, I will not lose", and it was also the determination of "success does not have to be me, success must have me".

"In front of Tiananmen, there is a Chinese style, the bird's nest ignites the Chinese style, the Five Oceans swims in the Chinese style, the Nine Heavens soar above the Chinese style, the Chinese style is so grand, the Chinese style is so handsome..." The game is still continuing, and the Chinese athletes are exerting their passion on the Winter Olympic Field, inheriting the Chinese spirit, and constantly painting the "Chinese Style" in capital letters!
