At the award ceremony, Liang Jingyi deliberately patted the five-star red flag on his chest with his hand before singing the national anthem, and as the national anthem was played, he could not help but burst into tears.

Chinese Paralympic athletes have actively adapted to the changes in the schedule and have not relaxed their pace of impacting the podium. A total of 2 silver and 1 copper were earned throughout the day, and the performance continued to be strong.
