Interviewee: Lin Jinyan, head of Shaanxi Ankang National Snow Project Training Base (Qinling Canyon Paradise).
The 2022 Winter Olympics touched me deeply, because a total of 22 athletes from the cross-country skiing national team trained at our Ankang base from 2018 to 2019, the steel frame snow team national team and the bobsleigh national team trained from 2019 to 2020, and the figure skating national team that trained in isolation at our base in 2021 were eligible to participate in the Winter Olympics.
The steel frame snow team Yan Wengang won the bronze medal, which is a historic breakthrough; the steel frame snow team Yin Zheng and Zhao Dan, the bobsleigh team Wang Peixuan, and the cross-country skiing Wang Qiang also achieved excellent results; in the figure skating pair skating free skating competition, Sui Wenjing and Han Cong won the ninth gold medal for the Chinese delegation at the Winter Olympics. Watching the Winter Olympics, I was very excited, I was sincerely proud of them, and I was also happy to see our base contribute to the national ice and snow sports cause. This also provides us with confidence and motivation for better development of ice and snow sports in the future and to provide better services for vigorously carrying out ice and snow tourism.

Located in qinling canyon park, Qinling Four Seasons Ski Resort is a national snow sports training base awarded by the State General Administration of Sports. In September 2019, the country's first bobsleigh, bobsleigh and steel frame bobsleigh departure training track was built here. The ski hall combines professional training with popular skiing functions. Since its opening, it has actively promoted the cooperation between venues and schools, and organized many research activities for primary and secondary school students in Shaanxi, Beijing, Shandong and other places, so that young people can experience the fun of skiing while feeling the scenery of Qinling Mountains and learning geological and biological knowledge.
This Winter Olympics has ignited the enthusiasm of the whole people, and ice and snow sports will become a sports activity loved and actively participated in by the public. With the help of the east wind of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games, we will actively promote the public ice and snow sports such as ice and snow entering the campus and ice and snow research in the post-Olympic era, and we must carry out in-depth ice and snow sports training, especially in cultivating the reserve team of youth groups in (steel frame) snowmobiles, sleds, cross-country skiing and biathlon events, etc., to send talents for the next National Games and winter Olympics. While vigorously carrying out ice and snow sports, we will vigorously develop ice and snow tourism, drive local economic development, and help rural revitalization.
