And behind all this, few people know
In the Winter Olympics, Hebei started from scratch.
After the successful bid for the 2015 Winter Olympics, Hebei set up a winter training center.
And adopted the method of joint construction to quickly set up 18 provincial-level professional teams.
In the past few years, Hebei ice and snow sports have developed rapidly and have been surpassed.
Winter sports are among the best in the country.
PyeongChang 2018 Winter Olympics,
For the first time in Hebei Province, only one athlete appeared on the field;
2022 Beijing Winter Olympics,
Eight athletes from Hebei participated in 7 events.
On the field, they are galloping,
Every breakthrough has created history;
Every time they appear,
All of them made the passion of all Hebei people proud and was ignited again and again.
>> every breakthrough they have made, behind them needs to pay unusual efforts

On February 6, cross-country skiing men's double chase,
Hebei athlete Liu Rongsheng finished 38th.
No. 38, sounds unremarkable,
But for China's cross-country skiing projects,
This is already a big breakthrough -
Winter Olympics cross-country skiing men's double chase competition, the mainland has participated 7 times,
The previous best result was 50th.

For cross-country skiing in China,
Late start and weak foundation are unavoidable realities.
Even before this Winter Olympics,
China has never been able to compete in a full-event event in cross-country skiing.
For Liu Rongsheng, standing on the field, he created history!

A low roar,
Hebei athlete Li Chunjian and his teammates struggled to push the cart to set off,
The red snowmobile is getting faster and faster...
On the evening of February 15, in the men's double bobsleigh race,
Hebei's Li Chunjian partnered with teammate Liu Wei,
Ranked 22nd with a total of 3:01.10,
It ended in the third round of the competition.
On February 20, the men's four-man snowmobile race,
Li Chunjian and his teammates finished 17th.
Whether it's 22nd or 17th,
Both are rankings that are highly likely to bury participants' names.
And the name buried breaker may pay more hard,
Because on that project,
China's foundation is weaker and needs to make up more homework!

Among the 109 sub-events of the Beijing Winter Olympics,
There are 35 Chinese athletes who appeared for the first time at the Winter Olympics.
In order to make a breakthrough at the Winter Olympics,
Among the athletes of the Chinese team participating in this competition,
About 1/5 of them are trained in ice and snow projects through cross-border cross-discipline selection.
This also means that the cross-border cross-discipline selection of players,
It takes a lot of effort!

The entire China snowmobile and steel frame snowmobile projects started late.
After Li Chunjian was selected into the national snowmobile training team through cross-border cross-item selection,
Even because there are no snowmobile tracks and events in the country,
It takes a long time to train abroad with the team.
The number of times you go home in a year is countless.
Before the PyeongChang Winter Olympics,
Mom happened to see several stitches on his leg.
Asked why, he said he walked away:
"What's that, I was hit with a concussion in my first year."

Two record-setting track departures
The ability to start has become a world leader
However, the light weight is still the "short board" of his lack of acceleration during the gliding stage.
"The team was doing everything in their power to help me grow weight.
Hopefully I can grow from 75 kg to 78 kg to increase the speed of coasting. ”
He gave the interview with a smile:
"There was a time when I ate a lot every day,
I also had to eat more, and as a result, I gained a little weight.
But after a month, the weight can't grow.
Probably because of my physique, it's hard for me to eat fat. ”

This is hope, but also determination!
As a former amateur track and field athlete,
Li Qianhua was only selected for the Hebei women's ice hockey team at the age of 13 through cross-border cross-sports selection.

But the training is particularly tough inside.
During training, she had broken feet and injured shoulders.
But I never took a day off because of this,
There was even one episode of acute nephritis
He also quickly adjusted his body and returned to the team to continue training.

They do it through hard work
Not only on behalf of themselves, but also on behalf of Hebei,
For the first time, he made his debut on the cross-country skiing event at the Winter Olympics.
These are both optimistic and powerful,
Chinese young people full of youth and self-confidence,
It will also be able to bloom the most beautiful smile.
Effort never deceives people.
Watch the dream, the future can be expected!
Coubertin, the founder of the modern Olympic movement, once said:
"What is important in life is not triumph, but struggle".
The Winter Olympics are coming to an end,
The struggle does not stop.

Steel frame snowmobile athlete Yin Zheng
Snowmobile li chunjian
Biathlete Yan Xingyuan
Cross-country skiers Liu Rongsheng and Chen Degen
Women's ice hockey player Li Qianhua
Figure skater Jin Boyang
