At the recently concluded Winter Olympics, Gu Ailing became a big winner, winning 2 gold medals and 1 silver medal, which made her popularity soar. However, Gu Ailing's future is marked with a question mark, in an interview with Reuters, Gu Ailing admitted that her grandmother is willing to let her become a doctor or lawyer, in the eyes of Gu Ailing's grandmother, she is engaged in skiing, purely for fun!
Gu Ailing's mother is a Chinese, and her father is an American, but her father has never appeared in public, and her identity is also doubtful, although there are many speculations in the outside world, none of which have been confirmed. Recently, Gu Ailing was interviewed by the British media, and she talked about her grandmother (actually grandma, Gu Ailing habitually calls her grandma). Gu Ailing said, "She has never seen me compete before, nor have she seen me ski. She said, 'You're just for fun, you can be a doctor or a lawyer in the future.' ’”
In Gu Ailing's view, Grandma does not recognize her skiing career very much, although Gu Ailing won 2 heavy gold medals at the Winter Olympics, but she said that Grandma will not change her mind, "I think she will not waver (thinking that Gu Ailing will become a doctor or a lawyer), nor will she be impressed." ”
If Gu Ailing does withdraw from his career in the future, which is a huge blow to China's winter sports, we will lose an ace player. You know, in the Winter Olympics, we can beat the American team on the gold medal list, which is closely related to Gu Ailing's contribution.
Thanks to her success, Gu has become the spokesperson for at least 23 brands, and in 2021 alone, her endorsement revenue exceeded $31.4 million. Therefore, once Gu Ailing chose not to continue her sports career, her financial losses were still very large. However, Gu Ailing is still a bully, and at the same time has a high emotional intelligence, such a person, in other fields, will easily succeed, her life, or have to choose.
Gu Ailing, who has been admitted to Stanford University, admitted in an interview that she would go to college and would not participate in ski competitions for a short time. Coupled with the wishes of her family, where Gu Ailing will go in the future is indeed marked with a question mark. However, what makes people speechless is that 5,000 Chinese actually wrote to Stanford University and demanded that Gu Ailing be expelled. However, Stanford University is still publicly welcoming the Olympic champion into school!
