At present, the Beijing Winter Olympics, a major global sports event, has ended. At the closing ceremony, China presented a grand and wonderful visual feast to the world. At this Beijing Winter Olympics, the Chinese team performed very well, winning 9 gold medals, completing the 9th square, and ranking third in the gold medal list. For the short track speed skating team that made a good start for the Chinese team, the result of winning two golds is already good. However, many netizens believe that in fact, the Chinese short track speed skating team can perform better, after all, the start is so amazing. The performance of Sun Long, a young player of the Chinese team, at this Winter Olympics, has been questioned by many netizens. So, why did Sun Long, who has a good strength, perform so badly in the games he played? Perhaps, in Wu Dajing's words, some answers can be found.
I have to say that the start of the Chinese short track speed skating team at the Beijing Winter Olympics is really perfect. In the short track speed skating 2000 meters mixed relay race, the Chinese team overpowered the Italian team and won the first gold medal of the Chinese team at the Winter Olympics. Then, in the short track speed skating 1000 meters competition, the Chinese team broke out, and three people entered the final of Group A, namely Wu Dajing, Ren Ziwei and Li Wenlong. In the end, the Chinese team also won the championship and runner-up, harvesting a gold and a silver. Just when everyone thought that this Beijing Winter Olympics would be a big harvest for the short track speed skating team, the pace of the Chinese short track speed skating team to win the card stopped. Especially in the men's 5,000-meter relay, the Chinese team had every opportunity to stand on the podium, but a major mistake by the Chinese rookie Sun Long led to the abandonment of the team's efforts.
In the men's 5,000m final, the Chinese team adopted a late-starter strategy. In the second half of the game, the Chinese team began to exert its strength and has rushed to the top 3. Just when the whole team was sprinting at full strength, Sun Long suddenly fell out of the track without physical contact at this time. At this moment, all the efforts and deployments of the Chinese team were completely disrupted. In the end, the achievements of the Chinese team can be imagined. Seeing Sun Long's performance, Wang Meng directly said: "I can't scold anymore, I'm speechless, what else can I say." Because in the previous game, Sun Long also made a mistake, when Wang Meng directly said: "I want to be on the field, I directly have a big mouth... You are wasting national resources. ”
Wang Meng's scolding of Sun Long at that time also directly made Sun Long on the hot search. This made this young player bear a lot of pressure, his situation at that time, can be described by the Internet storm, many netizens have accused and criticized his performance. As a result, Sun Long, who appeared on the stage of the World Series for the first time, was shaking his legs when he appeared in the following competitions, and the psychological pressure was very large. Finally, in the game, a mistake that would normally not have been possible appeared on him. In fact, some netizens said at the time that as Sun Long's former coach, Wang Meng was indeed qualified to teach him a lesson and scold him for not being angry. However, for such a young player, in the live broadcast room, in front of the national audience, publicly scolding, it seems to be a bit too much. After all, participating in such a competition is not a small pressure in itself. Coupled with the fact that it is also being hit by the Internet, the psychological endurance will directly collapse if it is smaller. Therefore, in the later interview of Wu Dajing, although he did not directly name Wang Meng, there was still a hint in it.
At that time, Wu Dajing explained to Sun Long in the interview, and clearly stated: "We are not looking at why he made a mistake, in fact, he is very lost, tell us sorry, tears there, may give him some pressure is quite large, this pressure is not what we can bear." Indeed, Sun Long's performance is not good, no matter from which point of view, he himself should be the first person responsible for poor performance. But the second mistake, I have to say, Wang Meng's public criticism of him and the Internet violence did have a great impact on him. However, now that the matter is over, we also believe that Sun Long should be able to come out of these mistakes and prove himself again.
