The Beijing Winter Olympics are in full swing, and two post-00s young players, Gu Ailing and Su Yiming, can be described as "top streams" overnight. Terms such as "Gu Ailing soared into the sky" and "Su Yiming made a blockbuster" frequently appeared on hot searches.
Born in 2003, Gu Ailing won two gold medals and one silver medal, and Su Yiming, born in 2004, won a gold medal and a silver medal. With such brilliant results, the two post-00s have become a beautiful landscape of the Beijing Winter Olympics.
Before the Winter Olympics, the names of Gu Ailing and Su Yiming were not well known, and with this event as the dividing line, they opened a new stage in their sports careers.
Gu Ailing, who is of mixed Chinese and American descent, was born in the United States to an American father and a Chinese mother. She began to be exposed to skiing at the age of 3, was the champion of the American Junior Group at the age of 9, and won fifty gold medals at the age of 14, and the title of "talented girl" is worthy of the name.
In 2019, 16-year-old Gu Ailing changed her American citizenship to Chinese nationality and aspired to China's participation in the Beijing Winter Olympics. Although her face is closer to that of a European or American, she speaks standard Beijing dialect and identifies herself as a Chinese.
After Gu Ailing began to practice freestyle skiing, the training was very hard, but despite this, she did not delay her studies, experienced hard training, and the first thing after returning home was still learning. After completing her high school courses in one year, she has been admitted to stanford University, a world-famous university.
And she had to make sure she had 10 hours of sleep every night and had enough energy to train the next day, which would also increase efficiency.
Influenced by her mother Gu Yan, in Gu Ailing's dictionary, the enjoyment process is more important than the result, so she enjoys the process of skiing and "playing".
Since the 2020 Winter Youth Olympics, Gu Ailing has constantly challenged herself to step onto a bigger stage and unlock the "new pose" gu Ailing to become the first person in the world to complete a 1440-degree flip in the competition.
In the eyes of outsiders, Gu Ailing is a talented girl with a high talent for skiing, and everyone always thinks that this girl can quickly unlock new skills, but Gu Ailing said that along the way, what has supported her is her love for skiing.
No one in this world can succeed casually, behind it are hard work and pain, is the perseverance of countless falls, injuries and then get back up, Gu Ailing is the same, a perfect flip, behind is repeated and breakthrough.
In the final of the freestyle ski women's U-shaped skill at the Winter Olympics, Gu Ailing won the championship with a score of 95.25, winning her second gold medal at the Winter Olympics.
As a post-00s Chinese youngster who participated in the Winter Olympics for the first time, Su Yiming successfully won the Men's Big Jump championship of the Beijing Winter Olympics with a score of 182.50, becoming the youngest champion in this event, which can be said to have created history.
Born in 2004, Su Yiming began practicing skiing at the age of 4, and was later selected by the director of "Wise Tiger Mountain" for skiing and became a small actor.
At that time, Su Yiming was only 8 years old, and played Han Geng's grandfather Xiao Tongzi in the play, sitting at a table with Zhang Hanyu and Lin Xinxin for a reunion dinner.
Later, he played Zhang Jiayi when he was a child in "Born on a Brilliant Day", and in the play, he perfectly interpreted the domineering, straight, and cute appearance of a child.
With natural acting skills, he also cooperated with Zhang Rui and Ni Dahong in "Lin Hai Grassland", and "Wolf Highness" with Wang Continental, Xiao Zhan and Li Qin. Netizens once joked that "Su Yiming is a man across CCTV5 and CCTV6".
However, rather than standing under the flash, Su Yiming hopes to be on the podium of the Olympic Games now, so winning a medal at the Olympic Games has become Su Yiming's dream.
In order to realize his dream, Su Yiming had to give up film and television and return to his battlefield, in order to complete the difficult action, quit the habit of sleeping lazily, write homework in advance every day, and insist on practicing skiing for 6 hours.
In 2018, Su Yiming became a professional athlete, and coach Yasuhiro Sato said of him: "He has a strong ability to understand, and he knows how to grow himself. ”
14 years of hard work and the perfect performance of this Winter Olympics made Su Yiming stand on the podium and complete his dream. In him, we can see the persistence and tenacity of the teenager, and also see that the 18-year-old Su Yiming is full of infinite possibilities.
epilogue
Many viewers speculated that Gu Ailing and Su Yiming were likely to play the position of flag bearers for the closing ceremony, and the flag bearers did not look at age and seniority, but at the ability they showed.
The medals won by Gu Ailing and Su Yiming at the Beijing Winter Olympics are their business cards. Smart, brave, gritty, atmospheric, they show the best temperament and style of the post-00s.
