Gu Ailing participated in the Beijing Winter Olympics for the first time at the age of 18, one person combined three events, two gold and one silver, Gu Ailing lifted a heavy weight.
In the freestyle ski U-shaped track skill final that ended on February 18, she won gold again!
As Gu Ailing's best project, the first trip to the slide, Gu Ailing played every action perfectly, scoring a high score of 93.25 points
On the second taxi, Gu Ailing completed 900+900, with an average height of 3 meters 6 and a maximum height of 3 meters 9! Scored a super high of 95.25 points!
Before the start of the third jump, because the score of the players who appeared before did not surpass Gu Ailing, she won the gold in advance!
Witnessing the story gu Ailing wrote at the Beijing Winter Olympics, we can't help but think - what kind of energy does this young girl have to resist the double pressure of physical and psychological with a spring breeze?
This is Gu Ailing's secret: experience everything, enjoy everything, and "ignore" everything at the same time.
It is not easy to compete in a sport on the field of the Winter Olympics, but gu Ailing opened a long front as soon as he came.
From the freestyle ski jump, to the slope obstacle course, to the U-shaped field, the three events are fully attacked, and Gu Ailing has become the "iron man" on the snow field.
In the big jumping project, she ignored her mother's advice and "insisted on going her own way" to challenge the 1620 action that had never been completed before, and successfully won the gold.
In the slope obstacle course, she was running continuously at both ends of the competition training. In the morning, I participated in the qualifying round and final of the slope obstacle course, and immediately rushed to the U-shaped field training...
Because she didn't have time to eat, the leek box and meat bun she took in her hand as a fast food after the game became the "warm leek chopping slippery male" in the mouth of netizens. Even sharp-eyed netizens found that Gu Ailing was flying in the sky with a leek box.
But even with this fatigue, she managed to win a silver medal in the slope obstacle course and once again stood on the podium.
And the U-shaped field competition that followed, her "Iron Man" journey continued.
Gu Ailing, who slipped 95.50 points in the qualifiers, did not see any fatigue on her body, even if she said that she was more tired these two days, "fortunately, she got up in the morning and had energy."
"I'm the only athlete (in freestyle skiing) who has reached the finals of three events, and from the opening ceremony to today, I train every day and race every day, without a day off." From her usual smile and quick tone of voice, you can hear a different kind of pride.
Because she had already made special preparations for this.
"I came to China last summer, and I ran half a horse every week and exercised for four hours a day." Her half-horse pace can reach 5 minutes per kilometer, which is already a fairly high level among amateur runners.
"Because I know the Olympics are going to be like this (tired) for sure, of course it won't be easy, but I'm also ready. A lot of people feel tired, but I've been practicing running and endurance and it's been a big help to me. ”
After the qualifying round of the U-shaped field event on the 17th, Gu Ailing could finally run without competition + training at both ends. Because there were other games in the U-shaped arena that afternoon, she could make slight adjustments.
But even then, she wouldn't be idle. "I go for a run, go to the gym, massage and so on every day, so I'm recovering while I'm training." She told the surging news reporter that such a life, she did not feel that it was an "asceticism" at all.
For Gu Ailing's dazzling achievements, people will always unconsciously explore the reason behind it, is the pressure from the family? Or is it a push from the outside?
But Gu Ailing has never had only one answer, that is, her biggest driving force is herself.
The mother, who has been accompanying herself to training matches and always communicating on the phone during the matches, is more of a psychological support for Gu Ailing than a "coach" who makes decisions. As Gu Ailing himself said, every decision he makes in skiing and competition is ultimately made by himself.
And her needle-in-the-needle time management, as well as the extreme self-discipline to take advantage of each day, also stemmed from her own desire: "When I trained during the isolation period, I was alone every day, and no coach came to tell me that you had to train for four hours a day." ”
"I did it myself, because it was something I wanted to do, I had to do, I knew I should do. After the slope obstacle course two days ago, I did a quick job of interviewing, also because I wanted to train. ”
"My efforts are all for my love and enjoyment." This is a declaration that Gu Ailing said bluntly.
Gu Ailing's race suit has a Chinese dragon motif, and the image of the dragon also appears on her helmet and snowboard, and the snowboard is also printed with a word: dragon among men.
It's all from her own design: "I especially like dragons, which makes me particularly confident and powerful. I want to be a dragon, I want to be the best I can be. ”
In fact, the "dragon of man" snowboard designed by Gu Ailing is not only used by herself, but also by Estonian star Hildaru and Alexander of the United States.
This is a result that makes Gu Ailing particularly proud and proud in addition to the results of the competition: "I want to share the elements and culture of China with this spirit that I like to others." I also like fashion very much, and it is good to be able to bring fashion elements. ”
Indeed, in addition to the identity of a skier, Gu Ailing has many "titles", and even each single can have a certain degree of topic.
She works as a model and is new to the fashion industry; she is a highly qualified student admitted to Stanford University, scoring a high score of 1580 on the 1600-point exam; at the same time, she is also an 18-year-old girl who has tried many sports and even literary and artistic projects since she was a child.
"Since I was a child, I played basketball, football, cross-country, skiing, piano, ballet, rock climbing, horse riding, surfing... I've tried it all. Gu Ailing reported a long list of interests in one breath. Even the most dedicated parents who put their children on a variety of interest classes may find it hard to imagine how so many projects can fit into one person's schedule.
But for Gu Ailing, this is something that he is willing to experience and enjoy.
"I think it's especially important to experience a variety of different sports since I was a child, although not all of them can reach a professional level, and when I grow up, I have less time to choose one (skiing), but I also have the experience and foundation."
Even non-sports opened another door for her. She likes to play the piano and likes music, and when she plays the competition, she will listen to her favorite music and challenge herself with the rhythm - big jumping platform, slope obstacle skills, she has her own "song list".
Her favorite U-shaped venue project is also associated with music. "(Sliding left and right) Uproar, uproar, uproar..." Gu Ailing waved his hand while using onomatopoeia to imitate the rhythm of sliding in the game, "very musical." ”
Gu Ailing does not resist to experience, to feel, such an open mind, is an important factor in the formation of her cheerful personality.
But while drawing feelings from the outside world, she was never afraid to express them.

She will deliberately wrap her hair in the helmet, specially leaving two strands of long hair that will not block the view to be exposed, just because she wants the outside world to see that she is a girl at a glance: "Most of this sport is a boy, others may see me and say, you see this girl can also skate so well, I also want to try." 」 ”
She will also respond with great wisdom to the malicious questions of foreign media, "Many players from different countries and I are friends. I particularly like skiing, not that you come from that country and play for that country, and we're not friends. ”
"Because we are all working together to break the limits of humanity, to do our best, I hope to see other people do their best, to share this sport, this is the greatest fun." 」
Such a response did not dispel the repeated questions of foreign journalists, but she was not affected.
She chooses to "ignore" the clutter of comments from the outside world and look into one focus —the life she loves. She is The Chinese Gu Ailing [Ya Ya] [Ya Ya] [Ya Ya]
