On February 8, the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics freestyle skiing women's big jump: Gu Ailing won the gold
The 18-year-old Chinese-American mixed-race girl Gu Ailing won the championship in the freestyle ski jump final, which not only brushed the screen, but also fell into the hearts of every Chinese people, but also illuminated the hearts of world sports fans and peace lovers, and also triggered international experts to think about Sino-US relations and the future. Yesterday (February 9), Wen Wei Po reporter interviewed Professor Huang Renwei, executive vice president of the Belt and Road Institute of Fudan University and the Institute of Global Governance, on the topic of home diplomacy at the Winter Olympics. He believes that Gu Ailing proves that the healthy competition between China and the United States can bring win-win results; the new Sino-US force represented by Gu Ailing after 00 or the new force that changes Sino-US relations; Gu Ailing is only a bright spot and epitome of the Beijing Winter Olympics, which will fall to the concept of a community with a shared future for mankind to the most subtle human hearts and humanity.
On February 8, Gu Ailing was at the press conference of the Beijing Winter Olympics
First of all, the success of Gu Ailing is the common crystallization of Sino-US education, which shows that the healthy competition between China and the United States is conducive to win-win, and the win-win situation between China and the United States is also inseparable from healthy competition. Huang Renwei went straight to the point, he analyzed that the first generation of Chinese students who went to the United States in the 1980s and 1990s had a second generation in the United States, and they received not only American education, American culture, but also Chinese education and Chinese culture. Gu Ailing loves both American culture and Chinese culture. Whether in China or the United States, the next generation that is jointly cultivated is not a minority, there are hundreds of thousands of returned students in the United States in China, and there are hundreds of thousands of Chinese students in the United States, and their next generation will be scattered in various fields, and the outstanding ones will be at the forefront of their generations. Last year's World Olympic Games, the championship was won by the Chinese children on the American team for the first time; in this Winter Olympics, Chen Wei, a male figure skater who joined the United States, played a brilliant role, which proved that they competed with each other, learned from each other, and therefore improved each other. "From this point of view, the healthy competition between China and the United States will bring about a win-win situation between China and the United States, and the win-win situation between China and the United States needs such healthy competition."
The second point is that from Gu Ailing, we can see the power and future of changing Sino-US relations. Before Gu Ailing participated in the Winter Olympics, Professor Huang Renwei predicted in the WeChat group that "Gu Ailing will be the ambassador of Sino-US relations in the future." He recalled that in the past two years, the negative effects between China and the United States have been mostly, and this time China hosted the Winter Olympics, the US officially took the lead in boycotting, and also encouraged a small number of allies. The appearance of Gu Ailing has brought a glimmer of light to everyone, she was born out of the deep foundation of the two peoples and shone in the relationship between the Chinese and American peoples. Although the power of people-to-people diplomacy has been advocated in the past, it was never expected to be so dazzling and full of potential. Gu Ailing is extremely talented, and her future, whether in the fashion industry, science or finance, has infinite possibilities. And once such a force moves between China and the United States, it is the non-governmental ambassador of future Sino-US relations, and will exert its strength for at least fifty or sixty years, which will have an immeasurable positive effect on bilateral relations.
In February 1972, US President Richard Nixon visited China
Huang Renwei reminded everyone that in half a month, it will be the 50th anniversary of Nixon's visit to China and the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Sino-US Shanghai Communiqué. The American Zhihua school 50 years ago was called Chinaboy, and now it is almost old. They watched the tortuous development of Sino-US relations, but now they have faded out of the stage of history. The new generation of American China passers after the 60s, 70s and even 80s advocate being tough on China. The appearance of Gu Ailing brought a fresh breath. In the future, the mainstream of Sino-US relations will be the "Gu Ailing" who have widely emerged among the Chinese and American people.
In this Winter Olympics, not only Gu Ailing chose Chinese nationality to represent the Chinese team, but also a group of naturalized athletes such as figure skaters born in the United States in 2002, Figure Skaters who chose to join China in 2019, and Zhu Yi, 20 years old. Judging from Gu Ailing's provocations in answering the US reporters, this generation does not care about the so-called "political correctness" of Washington, and with sincerity and love, they face the Western media without humility, and are "frank and impressive."
"This is a force that many scholars who study U.S.-China relations have previously underestimated. We also need to change our research perspective. ”
On the evening of February 4, at the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games, fuping "Ma Lanhua Children's Voice Choir" performed the Olympic song
In the end, Gu Ailing is just one of the many highlights of this Winter Olympics, and the "Chinese story" expressed in the Winter Olympics is everywhere. Behind this is a reflection: as long as Chinese concentrate on doing their own things, the whole world will see that smearing China with ulterior motives has become the laughing stock of the international community.
For example, Huang Renwei sang the Olympic song at the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics, and the Fuping "Malanhua Children's Voice Choir" came out of the mountains, making the world feel that the power of China's modernization has penetrated into every corner of the remote mountainous areas. In the free mobile phone received by each participating athlete, the currency of any country can be automatically converted into RMB and paid in the form of digital currency, while in the Olympic Village, robots provide catering services, and modern high-tech applications are integrated.
Here, the community of human destiny is becoming more and more concrete, it is no longer a slogan, but the people and things around them that can be seen, touched, and close to people's hearts and human nature, which is the most vivid Chinese story.
