On February 20, in the one-eighth of the alpine skiing mixed team competition on the last day of the Beijing Winter Olympics, the Chinese team played in the eighth game, against the strong swiss team, and the Chinese team was played by Ni Yueming, Xu Mingfu, Kong Fanying and Zhang Yangming, two men and two women, a total of four men and two women.
The Chinese Alpine Ski Mixed Team is the only representative team in Asia to participate in this competition - in this traditional strength of Europe and the United States, the Chinese team is relying on the "people" of the host, the first time to get the opportunity to participate, and then according to the points to get the opportunity to advance to the Winter Olympics, it is estimated that the difficulty of the Chinese team is very great.
As expected before the game, the four players of the Chinese team, in the four rounds of one-on-one catch-and-kill competition, all fell behind their opponents with obvious disadvantages and lost, and finally were eliminated with a total score of 0-4 and failed to reach the quarterfinals.
As a result, the Chinese alpine ski team also ended the entire journey of the Winter Olympics, but at the same time achieved the task of participating in 11 minor events.
However, in the quarter-finals of the alpine skiing mixed team competition, there were three previous games in which the team had already taken a 3-0 lead when they came out in the first three sets – in this case, the team had actually won the game early.
After that, in the last innings ofconclusive, in these three matches between European and American teams, the leader in the fourth set was obviously "released", slowed down in the game, did not let the opponent "eat zero eggs", and finally sent 1 point, winning 3-1 against the opponent.
In the commentary, the domestic commentator also said that this is a deliberate "courtesy" - however, when it came to the swiss match against the Chinese team, the first three sets also appeared that Switzerland led the Chinese team 3-0, but in the fourth set, Switzerland did not show signs of "releasing water", and still defeated the fourth player of the Chinese team with a clear advantage, the Chinese team became the only team that was not "comity" under the 0-3 backward, and finally 0-4 was eliminated. So, did the Swiss team lose its demeanor?
In fact, in different competitive sports competitions, there is a problem of whether to "give way" to the opponent and give the opponent face in the case of a huge advantage of obvious victory.
For example, in table tennis competitions, as Chinese table tennis players with greater advantages, in the past, most of them would basically take the practice of letting 1 point before the last point of the innings, that is, 10-0, like Zhang Yining, the "Big Devil" of that year, very obviously gave up 1 point to Ai Fukuhara at 10-0.
However, at the 2019 World Table Tennis Championships, Liu Shiwen played against her teammates Ding Ning and Chen Meng in the semi-finals and finals respectively, both under 10-0 in one of the sets, resolutely not giving up points, and both gave the two an 11-0 "shaved head" phenomenon, it seems that after this, the Chinese table tennis team rarely conceded the ball after 10-0.
In fact, as a two-sided side of the game, do you want to "give the ball" to face so much? Perhaps for the giver or the transferee, the feelings are not necessarily the same - especially the transferee, some or think that this is a friendly performance to give face, but it may also make the transferee feel that this is a very embarrassing, but more faceless thing.
Therefore, for the "gifted person", giving in or not letting go is of course his freedom to make a choice according to his subjective ideas; but for those who are willing to accept, he may be grateful. However, or for those who do not want to be accepted, it can only be said that "it doesn't matter if he doesn't let it go" - our Chinese ski mixed team team, facing the Swiss team's practice of not wanting to "give in", can also have this mentality.
Of course, only when our skiing project is extremely strong, it can be like table tennis, or like today's Swiss team, we can let go if we want to, don't want to let go - strong, always have more free choice priority! 【Original Review: Yu said that hugh】
