On the evening of February 16, with South Korea's Choi Min-jing winning the gold medal in the women's 1500 meters, the short track speed skating events of the Winter Olympics were all over, and many of the participating athletes had embarked on their journey back to China. Among them, Liu Shaolin and Liu Shaoang, Hungarian Chinese brothers who performed well throughout the competition, specially sent a message thanking Beijing before leaving, which drew a successful end to their journey to the Winter Olympics. This Winter Olympics, Liu Shaolin did not get on the podium, but broke the Olympic record, and Liu Shaoang won 1 gold and 2 bronze, which is the number one contributor of the Hungarian short track speed skating team.
In the highly anticipated men's 1,000m final, Liu Shaolin was the first to cross the finish line, but his results were cancelled due to fouls, and China's Ren Ziwei and Li Wenlong won the championship and runner-up. After the game, Liu Shaolin expressed regret, but he approved of the referee's decision, knowing that he did foul first, and there was no problem for the Chinese players to win the championship. In the men's 1500m event that followed, Liu Shaolin was still in hot form, even breaking the Olympic record, but the other players were also very good, and he ultimately failed to stand on the Olympic podium.
In contrast, Liu Shaoang gained more, not only won the individual 500m gold medal and 1000m bronze medal, but also helped the Hungarian team to win the third place in the mixed team relay, which is not only Hungary's short track speed skating hero, but also one of the athletes who have reached the podium the most times this event. When he left Beijing, Liu Shaoang deliberately released photos of Chinese and Hungarian flags in his hand to show friendship and gratitude, which was also recognized by the majority of Chinese netizens. In the eyes of the outside world, Liu Shaolin and Liu Shaoang brothers have a large pattern, which is more important for athletes, and I believe that both will have a broader development prospect in the future.
Liu Shaoang and Liu Shaolin's father is Chinese, Liu Shaoang began to skate at the age of 7, began to train in China in 2007, and has gradually formed a stereotype since then, every summer, he will stay in Changchun for 3 months, in addition to learning to skate, he will also receive education in the local area, so he is not unfamiliar with Chinese language and culture, and Wu Dajing, Ren Ziwei and other Chinese short track speed skaters are also familiar. As we all know, the Chinese short track speed skating team, like the table tennis team, has a lot of northeastern athletes, and Liu Shaoang has been training in China for a long time and can also speak fluent Northeast Chinese, which has narrowed the distance between him and Chinese fans.
Born in 1998, Liu Shaoang is at the peak of his career, he is currently a two-time Winter Olympic champion and world champion, and in the future short track speed skating, he will be the main opponent of the Chinese team. After successfully completing the competition of this Winter Olympic Games, Liu Shaoang will also become a national hero of Hungary and be warmly welcomed by the people of the country.
