Gu Ailing jumped on the stage to reverse the victory and won the third gold of the Chinese delegation
Before the final jump, Gu Ailing had already locked in a medal in advance. In the third jump, she challenged the unprecedented 1620-degree turn in the air, which was a super difficult move, scoring 94.50 points, and the combined best two-jump score was 188.25 points, successfully surpassing the French player Tess Ludder, who was leading the way, and won the championship. Gu Ailing had never used this move in an official game before, and the left side of the rotation was not the direction she was good at. In fact, even the big jump event is not Gu Ailing's strong point, she only successfully completed the 1440 turn for the first time in the competition three months ago, and she has only trained for one year in this project. IOC President Bach, who witnessed Gu Ailing's victory on the spot, came forward to congratulate Gu Ailing, and the Winter Games Center of the State General Administration of Sport also sent a congratulatory message after the game. Gu Ailing won the championship, igniting the enthusiasm of the audience. In the "Winter Olympic Community" less than 4 kilometers away from the big jump, the center stage of the Winter Olympic Cultural Center also played the competition screen in real time, and many citizens witnessed the birth of the first champion of the big jump.

Gu Ailing comforted the defeating opponent for the first time after winning the championship
A perfect interpretation of the Olympic spirit
It is worth noting that the on-site media also captured a warm scene on the field, Tess Ludd made a mistake in the last jump, missed the gold medal, and the champion Gu Ailing came forward to hug her for the first time. CNN published an article titled "Gu Ailing Shows Olympic Spirit After Winning on the Big Jump," saying Ludd was disappointed after the final jump because she knew she couldn't win the gold medal. At this time, Chinese athlete Gu Ailing and Swiss athlete Mathilde Grimor walked over to comfort her, this scene is "the display of the Olympic spirit". Eurosport also posted on social media topped a video of Gu Ailing comforting Ludd, accompanied by the text "This is the whole meaning of the Olympic Games." ”

Gu Ailing: The significance of popularizing skiing is heavier than gold medals
Gu Ailing could not hide her excitement in the interview after the game, and at the same time, she did not forget that she shouldered the mission of introducing free skiing to a new generation in China. Gu Ailing lived up to the expectations of the public to win gold, but also attracted the attention of the Us media, after the veteran Us media "New York Times" deliberately provoked Sino-US geopolitical issues in its report, and was immediately resolved by Gu Ailing. On February 3, the New York Times published an article titled "Gu Ailing Tries to Fly Over The Geopolitical Differences Between China and the United States", saying, "In this Winter Olympics, Gu Ailing is expected to win three gold medals." But perhaps her most difficult trick to master is how to get past the deepening differences between the two superpowers, fly over the geopolitical strife of the Winter Olympics, and then land safely. In response to the "blind worry" of the New York Times, Gu Ailing generously responded: "I can do backflips in a U-shaped snow field about seven meters high." It's not politics, it's challenging human limits and connecting them. For foreign media to ask "do you feel at home in China now", Gu Ailing's answer is also perfect.
