February 16, Beijing time, the 12th match day of the Beijing Winter Olympics.
Today will be the last day of the short track speed skating event, will produce the women's 1500 meters and men's 5000 meters relay gold medal, the women's 1500 meters group has just been produced, because the number of participants in this project is not large, so there is no preliminary stage of the competition, directly into the quarterfinals of the competition, of which the mainland player Zhang Yuting and South Korea's famous Choi Min Jing were divided into the first group at the same time, Han Yutong is in the four groups, the same group has Sophia and Anna two strong Russian and Austrian players, and in the sixth group, There is Zhang Chutong and the Dutch player Shulting, who has just won the gold medal in the women's 1000 meters.
Women's 1500 meters quarterfinals have a total of six groups, each group has six players competing in the same field, the first two of each group directly to advance to the semi-finals, it can be said that the competitive pressure is still relatively large, short track speed skating has six players at the same time, the track is already relatively crowded, prone to collisions and other unexpected situations, so the difficulty of this group is not that the same group has a strong opponent, but the same group of opponents more, our players need to prepare their own competition strategy before the game, In case the women's 1000m defeat happens again.
Recently, some netizens found that the mainland freestyle skier Gu Ailing on foreign social media, back to a British veteran magazine "Economist" editor published an article called "Why Gu Ailing abandoned the United States, on behalf of the Chinese ski team", this article is extremely ignorant of the Chinese prejudice, and even accompanied by a picture of Gu Ailing's skiing action being caught in chopsticks makes people very angry, Gu Ailing commented under this article: "If you want to bully a teenager, please do at least three points: First, Figure out the facts, second, directly Aite me, third, don't use chopsticks to represent China. ”
At present, The Economist magazine has changed the picture, removed the chopsticks to change the color of Gu Ailing's snowboard, and deleted Gu Ailing's comments, but did not delete the article. This arrogance is really impossible for people to calm down, but Gu Ailing's success and recognition of the motherland have obviously poked the pain points of some people, which shows that we are on the right direction and do not have to pay attention to some arrogant and incompetent anger that we think are noble.
