Beijing, 15 Feb (Xinhua) -- The Chinese women's curling team, which won two and lost four, made adjustments on the afternoon of the 15th, and han Yu, the captain of the "post-00s", moved his position for the second time. She had previously adjusted from fourth base to third base and sat on the "Ice Cube" bench.

Before the game, Han Yu and four teammates came to the side of the track together, looking relaxed. When an opponent throws a "penalty", she habitually pulls out a stopwatch to time and communicate with her teammates about the venue.
In the previous six battles, Han Yu, as the captain, was one of the players who used the stopwatch most frequently on the field. Most of the time, she stood in the base camp area responsible for directing the team members to rotate forward, hit, wipe ice, etc.
In the first three games of the Beijing Winter Olympics, Han Yu was responsible for the final hit of the fourth base, and the Chinese team did not win. She took the initiative to take responsibility many times after the game, believing that she was poorly handled at some key points, and even made low-level mistakes such as shooting violations.
After that, Han Yu was adjusted to third base, and Wang Rui took over the fourth base. This change of team received miraculous results, and the Chinese team Lian Ke PyeongChang Winter Olympics top two Teams Sweden and South Korea.

But on the 14th, the Japanese team played 10:2 with only eight innings, forcing the Chinese team to concede defeat, and Han Yu's success rate in this game was only 61%. That night, Jiang Xindi, a substitute of the Chinese team, received a notice that she would play as a first base against the Russian Olympic Committee team on the 15th.
On the afternoon of the 15th, Han Yu sat in the middle of the Chinese team's coaching bench, and two foreign coaches sat around him. During the game, she compared lines with the coach from time to time and exchanged the battle situation. The Chinese team scored 2 points in the first set, and she applauded excitedly.
However, as the game progressed, the number of red pots of the Chinese team on the display in front of Han Yu became smaller and smaller, and the chinese team's failed throws were replayed again and again. In the fifth set, the Russian Olympic Committee team scored four points and ended the first half with a 6-4 reversal.

During the intermission, Han Yu quickly took out bananas, biscuits and other foods and walked off the field. Foreign coach Mariani left after a brief exchange with the players, while Han Yu waited until the referee reminded him that the second half was about to start before leaving. Before leaving, she helped her teammates sort out the clothes storage box and handed Wang Rui, who had taken over her position as captain, a cookie.
In the second half, the Chinese team was still at a disadvantage, hitting "the difference" many times. In the seventh inning, the Chinese team lost another big point, and Han Yu put on a black coat.
As the day before, The Chinese team conceded defeat after the eighth inning, with a score of 5:11. The Russian Olympic Committee team, which had previously lost six consecutive games, won its first victory.
"I didn't play today." In the mixed mining area after the game, Han Yu sped along the wall roots, leaving only a word for the reporter.
The aura of "genius girl" above her head came here, but she walked into a cloud, and what she was experiencing was a real and cruel tempering.
