As the Beijing Winter Paralympic Games continue, the Chinese team has ushered in a good news, and then I will take you to understand the specific situation. Pride of China! China's first winter Paralympic double was born, and after the game, he modestly stated: I did not dare to think of winning the championship!
As a large-scale international event held every four years, the Winter Paralympic Games are also a stage for athletes to realize their dreams. In the journey of this Beijing Winter Paralympic Games, the performance of the Chinese team is quite outstanding, the gold medal list and medal table have always been high in the first place, such an outstanding performance really makes the Chinese people feel very proud, and now the Chinese player Zheng Peng has brought greater surprises to the Chinese people.
In the Men's Short Distance Sitting Group Competition of Paralympic Cross-Country Skiing at the Beijing Winter Paralympic Games, with his outstanding performance, China's Zheng Peng successfully won the gold medal in the event, and another Chinese player, Mao Zhongwu, won the silver medal in the event. This is Zheng Peng's personal second gold medal at the Beijing Winter Paralympic Games, and after Zheng Peng successfully won the gold, China's first winter Paralympic double champion was born, which is indeed a remarkable achievement!
Zheng Peng is now 29 years old, he was an apprentice in an auto repair factory when he was 18 years old (2011), but his fate was full of bumps and thorns, and he was unfortunately hit by a lift during his apprenticeship, which also caused Zheng Peng to fall disabled, and he could only rely on a wheelchair to travel. Zheng Peng was only 18 years old at the time, which was undoubtedly a heavy blow to an ignorant youth.
However, Zheng Peng was not knocked down by reality, but gradually transformed into an athlete. When Zheng Peng was 20 years old (2013), he aspired to become a professional athlete, so he applied for the sports school for the disabled and began to contact skiing.
After 5 years of professional training, Zheng Peng represented the Chinese team in the Pyeongchang Winter Paralympic Games (2018), when he signed up for 4 events, the best result was in the cross-country skiing men's sitting position 15 km competition, it is a pity that Zheng Peng only won the 4th place in the end, just one step away from the podium, which also strengthened Zheng Peng's determination to attack the medal.
Now in the journey of the Beijing Winter Paralympic Games, Zheng Peng has demonstrated an extremely outstanding competitive standard, and has won the gold medal in the men's long-distance sitting event of Paralympic cross-country skiing and the gold medal of the men's short-distance sitting event of Paralympic cross-country skiing, becoming China's first winter Paralympic double champion, while realizing self-worth, but also helping the Chinese team create a new history!
In the media interview after the game, when asked what it was like to become a double champion, Zheng Peng was not proud and complacent, but very modestly stated, "I didn't dare to think about winning the championship before the game, after all, everyone skated almost the same, and it was really impossible to determine who the champion was until the last moment." ”
At the same time, Zheng Peng also expressed his gratitude to the coach, he said that during the game, the coach has been cheering for him from the side, and bluntly said that the coach's rhythm is very in place, which has helped him a lot.
Due to the preparation for the Winter Paralympic Games, Zheng Peng has been in a state of intensive training, so he has not returned home for more than 2 years. In the final stage of the interview, Zheng Peng said that he was really homesick and hoped that after the whole project, he could go home and have a good time with his family.
Finally, congratulations to Zheng Peng for becoming China's first winter Paralympic double, such an outstanding performance is indeed China's pride. Zheng Peng will also participate in the Paralympic cross-country skiing men's mid-range sitting group competition, if he can win the gold medal again, then Zheng Peng will become China's first winter Paralympic triple crown, which is indeed worthy of the expectations of the people of The country. As for what kind of performance Zheng Peng will perform next, let's wait and see!
