"Welcome to the National Museum of China to visit the basic exhibition of "The Road to Rejuvenation". This exhibition recalls the various explorations made by the Chinese people from all walks of life in humiliation and suffering since the Opium War of 1840 to achieve national rejuvenation..." On the afternoon of April 18, 11 gold medalists and medalists of the Beijing Winter Olympics in Beijing, Wu Dajing, Ren Ziwei, Fan Kexin, Qu Chunyu, Gao Tingyu, Xu Mengtao, Qi Guangpu, Sui Wenjing, Han Cong, Li Wenlong, and Yan Wengang, came to the National Museum of China to visit the "Road to Rejuvenation" exhibition. The National Museum of China is a concentrated embodiment of cultural self-confidence, through the vivid narration of the five parts by the docents, the athletes conducted a close-up party history study and patriotic education, and deeply realized that today's happy life and high-quality training conditions are not easy to come by, and the patriotic spirit embodied everywhere in the exhibition continues to inspire them to continue to move forward.
Ren Ziwei, the short track speed skating mixed team relay champion and the men's 1,000m champion of the Beijing Winter Olympics who repaid the motherland with a gold medal, said: "This time I can see so many cultural relics that witness history, which makes me deeply feel the strength of the motherland is not easy to come by. The efforts and sacrifices of countless ancestors have brought us to our current conditions, and I am very fortunate to be born in a great motherland and a great era. Ren Ziwei said that the 5,000-year history of China is the foundation of China, and it is also the spiritual strength of athletes standing on the field, "which makes us standing on the ice rink full of confidence." ”

Four Winter Olympics, 16 years of perseverance so that freestyle skiing aerial skill athlete Qi Guangpu finally realized the dream of gold medal at the Beijing Winter Olympics at his doorstep. From being invaded during the Opium War, to the founding of New China at the founding ceremony, to today's happy life, Qi Guangpu also feels empathy for the bumpy process of rising from the trough to the victory. "Because athletes are also unknown from the beginning, and then experience many setbacks, hardships, injuries, they can go to the field to have the opportunity to win glory for the country, and finally stand on the highest podium." Through this visit and study, I understood that although it was difficult along the way, these efforts were nothing compared with the road to rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, but inspired me to work harder on the road ahead. ”
Xu Mengtao, who is also the elder of the Four Dynasties, overcame the double test of physical and psychological on the road of pursuing excellence, and stepped on the Winter Olympic field for the fourth time, not only winning gold medals but also strengthening her confidence in continuing to go on. Xu Mengtao said: "Looking back at these great people, on the way to creating a new China for us, they took the humiliation in their hearts, and with their efforts, the motherland went from standing up to getting rich and then becoming strong, which made me deeply inspired." She said that through visiting the "Road to Rejuvenation" exhibition, she deeply realized that compared with her predecessors, the suffering and tiredness she suffered was nothing, "Today my heart has received a baptism, as a young person in the new era, especially to win the Winter Olympic Championship, I feel that the burden and responsibility on my body are heavier." I hope to distill the fruits of my preparation for the battle and pass it on to the reserve force of aerial skills, whether I am an athlete or a transformation next, I should have such a sense of responsibility and mission. I am a brick, where I need to move where I want, in the road to build a sports power to contribute to their own efforts. Xu Mengtao said.

Li Wenlong, who won the silver medal in the men's 1,000m of short track speed skating at the Beijing Winter Olympics, was also deeply touched. He said: "The ancestors exchanged their blood and lives for such a good era as we have now, and only then have the stable and advanced training conditions they have now." This motivates me to train hard, to repay the happy life laid for us by our ancestors, and to repay the cultivation of the motherland. Yan Wengang, who won the bronze medal of the men's steel frame snowmobile at the Beijing Winter Olympics and created history for China's ice and snow sports, said that although he has visited museums in other cities to feel history before, he came to the National Museum of China for the first time, "Since the Opium War in 1840, the Communist Party of China and the Chinese people have suffered a lot in order to achieve national rejuvenation, and I have learned a lot from it, bringing motivation to my future sports path, and striving to achieve greater breakthroughs in the steel frame snow project." ”
