At 17:30 on the afternoon of February 14, Beijing time, Yusheng held a press conference in Beijing. It is reported that the press conference was set up due to the difficulty of the Japanese Olympic Committee in responding to a large number of personal interview requests for Yu Yusuke. At the press conference, Yu Yu talked about his feelings about experiencing the Olympic Games, and responded to rumors that he may choose to retire, saying that he would continue to challenge the 4A action in the future.
For Yusheng, this year's Beijing Winter Olympics trip has come to an end. In the free skating competition of the Winter Olympics, Yu Yu scored 188.06 points on the challenge of super difficulty, failed to present a complete Axel four-week (4A) jump in the official competition, and finished fourth with a total score of 283.21 points. In fact, at the time of the all-day championship, Yu Yusei challenged the 4A for the first time, when his feet fell on the ice, and the difference in weeks was large, and he was finally demoted to the group. The 4A at the Beijing Winter Olympics was the closest he could ever come to success.
Walking into the press room and seeing the many media in the audience, Yu Sheng Yuxian showed nervousness and shyness, "I am surprised that so many people have come to the press conference, thank you very much." ”
"It is very regrettable not to get the gold medal, the American player Chen Wei left a regret four years ago, this performance is very wonderful, I also made an effort to win the gold, although the result is regrettable, but in this venue is very pleasant, I like the ice surface of Beijing too much." I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to all the staff. ”
It is worth mentioning that during the pre-match training of the men's single skating free skating, Yu Yusei sprained his right ankle, and he was playing in the free skating in the closed: "In the past few days, I have thought a lot, although the 4A challenge was not successful, but I tried hard, and finally my ankle was a little painful, and finally the jump was restricted, and I did not dare to jump too much. In the past three days, I have received a lot of care, everyone is very concerned about my foot injury, although it is very painful to walk now, but I really want to tell you: I really like the sport of figure skating. ”
Will continue to practice the 4A movements will not give up figure skating
Reporter: After the free skating, you bowed and touched the ice surface, did you have anything you wanted to express but didn't express?
Yusuke Habu: I want to thank this ice rink and everyone with this form of bowing, and I love this venue. At the end of the performance, I wasn't very sad, I was honored to see the audience still applauding me. Everybody is supporting me, whether in China or anywhere, so I really want to show people my attitude, so I really want to skate this race. Thanks to the whole ice making team.
Reporter: Will you continue to challenge yourself and challenge 4A?
Yusheng Yushin: I think that in the challenge failure, I have not summed up very well in my heart, I don't want to explain too much, I am a little injured when I land on one foot when challenging, but I don't want to use it as an excuse, I am still very satisfied with the result, learning how to jump 4A, I really have walked a lot of roads, I don't want to lose to 4A, or I want to challenge in the best state.
Reporter: Why did you think of going to the training ground today?
Yusei Yusuke: I'm actually not in the right situation to skate anymore, but I really want to go to ice again. To be honest, skating (after injury) wasn't very safe for me, but I still wanted to train, loved figure skating, and I remembered what it was like to skate as a kid when I was training. I cherish the feeling of skating on the ice and will not give up figure skating.
I don't feel like I'm the king, and I have a lot of things I want to challenge
Reporter: As the king of ice, what is the significance of the challenge for you?
Yusei Yushin: I don't think there's anything special about it, it's true that I was the king of ice, but I never thought I was the only, unique person. I think everyone has challenges every day, and sometimes protecting some things is also a challenge, protecting some things, protecting your family, you need to spend time and effort to do it. I think for me, the 4A and the Winter Olympics are the challenges, I cherish those challenges, and I want you to face every challenge. I've received a lot of praise for the challenge, and I hope you all do too.
Reporter: Will it be the last Olympics?
Yusuke Yusuke: This is difficult to answer, I don't know if it will be the last Winter Olympics. I went to the Winter Olympics and once again felt how different the Olympics were, I was injured, but I still made a challenge. The Olympics are always different for athletes. Even if you fall, you have to stand up, and you feel very happy to stand on this stage. I hope to have the opportunity to participate in the Winter Olympics, I also feel the love of Chinese ice fans, and I am really happy to play in this atmosphere.
Reporter: The goal of the future?
Yu Yusuke: 4A is still the goal, and I want to continue to polish the program. The road ahead is still being considered, to be honest, it's still a messy state, I think, I've done the 4A perfectly, what I want to show you, what kind of performance I really don't know. In a way, I've done my 4A. When it comes to the future, I don't even know where the next Winter Olympics will be held. But as a feathered string, I will cherish every moment of feather string figure skating.
Reporter: You are a gold medalist in two Winter Olympics, and you did not defend your title this year, how are you feeling now?
Yusei Yusuke: It's a heavy burden for me, but it's because of this pressure that I have goals and momentum. It is because I won the Sochi championship that many people come to pay attention to me, their focus, I have more and more support. The three consecutive championships are gone, and my pressure is gone, but I am still proud to be the champion of the Winter Olympics for two consecutive years, and I will still live proudly with this aura.
