When the whole people watch the Winter Olympics, there are not only the cool and heroic postures and wonderful performances of the ice and snow athletes, but also the Northeast dialect that is jokingly called "the third official language of the Beijing Winter Olympics" by netizens. After Gao Tingyu's 500-meter speed skating gold, a sentence of "I am more across the road" amused the audience, and also listened to foreign reporters, so that the translator who did not understand Northeast Chinese could only translate as: "I think I'mquite... gelu？ "Today we will talk about the Northeast dialect on the Winter Olympics.
From Ling Zhi and Fan Suyuan's "ké" and "quack good" in the curling competition, to the alpine skier Zhang Yangming's "fight (pìn) before the competition;from Wang Meng's "old sister nagging" commentary, to the "seamless switching" of the Cantonese northeast dialect of Hong Kong speed skaters, the strong "big ballast flavor" inside and outside the Beijing Winter Olympics has made countless people feel the "magic" and "brainwashing" of the Northeast dialect. If divided by place of birth, more than half of the athletes in the Chinese sports delegation at the Beijing Winter Olympics are northeasterners, and a considerable number of players are "infected" with northeast chinese because of training with northeast coaches and northeast teammates. Jokingly speaking, "Northeasterners" in various senses have to some extent become the atmosphere of this Winter Olympic Games.
Why is the "northeast content" of the Beijing Winter Olympics so high? In fact, the popularity of northeast culture and northeast elements during the Winter Olympics is not a unique phenomenon of this Winter Olympics. Athletes from the northeast have won many awards in the Winter Olympic Games, behind which is a relatively long history of ice and snow sports and a deep accumulation of ice and snow sports. The first provincial speed skating team in New China was born in Heilongjiang Province; Ye Qiaobo, who achieved the "zero breakthrough" of Chinese Winter Olympic medals, and Yang Yang, who won China's first Winter Olympic gold medal, are all authentic "old sisters" in northeast China; among the 13 winter Olympic gold medals in the mainland before the Winter Olympics, Qitaihe in the northeast "contracted" 6... When it comes to ice and snow sports on the mainland, whether it is the accumulation of training technology or the inheritance of sportsmanship, the northeast is always the existence that cannot be avoided.
Further, the broad and deep mass base has also allowed ice and snow sports to develop and grow in the northeast. The long winter and the natural environment of ice and snow make it a daily life for people in Northeast China to be close to and love ice and snow. Want to skate does not have to run to the lake surface of the park, the open-air playground with soil pads into a runway, water wheel watering, overnight into ice, repeated several times can pour out a piece of "ice rink"; ice surface maintenance is also full of folk wisdom, ice frame on a large gasoline barrel, the barrel evenly tied out a row of small holes, the bucket filled with water on the ice surface sliding, pothole ice surface slowly smooth as a mirror ... Similar scenes constitute the beautiful ice and snow memories of many Northeasterners.
However, the eye-catching results of the Winter Olympics and the boom in ice and snow culture are only one of the reasons why the "Northeast Tiantuan" has come to the spotlight. The optimistic, sincere, "tiger" energy of the northeast people, "do not obey", is the place that really impresses the audience. Behind the Northeast dialect "magic sound filling", netizens praise that confidence and domineering, frankness and directness.
In fact, this is not the first time that "Northeast Culture" has been out of the circle. Whether it is the beloved Northeast dialect sketches, or the Northeast Old Iron that shouts "666" on the live broadcast platform, as well as film and television works such as "The Piano of Steel" and "The World of Man", they are all exporting authentic Northeast culture to the society. And these cultural products can be accepted by people, either because they are closely tied to the history of the republic, or because of their optimism and humor full of fireworks, or perhaps because of the unique charm of the "Northeast Style". The extraordinary course traveled by the Great Northeast, the glorious dreams embraced, and the ordinary life of the lifting are all known in the "out of the circle" again and again.
If most of the previous popularity was the "northeast wind of literature and art", then the Beijing Winter Olympics let the audience intuitively feel the fighting will and high spirit that originated in the northeast land. I believe that many people's stereotypes of "heavy industry is barbecue, light industry is live broadcasting" in the northeast will be changed by Ren Ziwei's "Chinese speed" and refreshed by Xu Mengtao's domineering roar.

Of course, the region on the Olympic field is not an important label, no matter which province or region from which dialect is spoken, all the Chinese ice and snow athletes who work hard, go all out and surpass themselves are our pride. With the goal of "driving 300 million people to participate in ice and snow sports" become a reality, and the mainland ice and snow sports "south exhibition west expansion eastward expansion", ski skating has long been not exclusive to the north, ice and snow sports are entering thousands of households. In this already paved ice and snow picture, it is expected that more cultural elements will bloom with dazzling charm and brilliance.
This is exactly what it is: the wind is proud of the snow, and the people of the northeast are very good. Fight hard, Chinese athletes!
