At the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, Han Xiaopeng won the gold medal in freestyle skiing aerial skills, becoming the first Chinese male athlete to win gold at the Winter Olympics and the first winter Olympic gold medal for the Chinese snow sports. But since then, although the Chinese team has been firmly ranked first-class in the world and has repeatedly won the world championship and the World Cup, it has not been able to see gold again in the Winter Olympic Games. This time, they won the silver medal again, and I hope that the Chinese team will continue to cheer! Image source: Xinhua News Agency infographic
