"I've been selected as their ambassador."
"Genius girl" Gu Ailing told reporters frankly when answering a question about the Salt Lake Olympics in the United States.
As soon as this remark came out, it directly detonated the public opinion of the whole network, because Gu Ailing caused heated discussions because of the nationality issue before, so why is Gu Ailing, who was once famous, now abused by many netizens? Could it be that Gu Ailing really changed her nationality?
Skiing genius, Gu Ailing
Because her mother is a ski instructor, Gu Ailing has been taking lessons with her since she was a child.
Under the influence of her ears, Gu Ailing became interested in skiing and often imitated her mother's skiing moves.
After Gu Ailing's mother found out carefully, she felt that her "mantle" was finally inherited.
So, Gu Ailing officially began to learn skiing.
Under the training of her mother, Gu Ailing's skiing strength has gradually improved, and her talent has gradually appeared.
Gu Ailing worked very hard and did not live up to her mother's expectations.
With her persistence day after day, Gu Ailing has also achieved great results.
At the age of nine, Gu Ailing won the championship in the junior category of the ski competition.
By the time she was in middle and high school, she had competed in many competitions in the United States and won various gold medals.
While her ability continues to improve, she has also been recognized by everyone.
At this time, Gu Ailing already had all the requirements of an international athlete.
So in 2017, Gu Ailing officially entered the American team and began to participate in international competitions to continuously improve her strength.
In March 2018, Gu Ailing participated in the international league, where she won her first international gold medal.
Since then, Gu Ailing has continued to win gold medals in various competitions.
●—≺ new identity, Chinese athlete! ≻—●
As Gu Ailing continues to win gold, she feels that there is no challenge for the American team.
Gu Ailing decided to start a new journey, that is, to become a Chinese citizen!
In fact, Gu Ailing had an idea about joining Chinese nationality.
Gu Ailing once said publicly: I also have Chinese blood in me, and I like China very much.
After all, her mother is Chinese, and under the influence of family education, the young Gu Ailing began to have a strong interest in Chinese culture.
And her mother will often take Gu Ailing back to China, walk all over China's beautiful rivers and mountains, and at the same time, take her to understand China's history and culture.
In 2019, Gu Ailing's wish was finally realized, and this year, she successfully became a Chinese national.
●—≺ Fame in a battle and winning the gold medal≻—●
Gu Ailing also lived up to expectations, just joined the Chinese team and won the championship at the World Championship.
And Gu Ailing's road to fame has just begun, and in the 2022 Winter Olympics, Gu Ailing really shined.
In the women's big air qualifying competition of freestyle skiing at the Winter Olympics, Gu Ailing directly won the championship with a high score of 188.25.
Subsequently, Gu Ailing passed all the way and won a gold and a silver at the Winter Olympics.
Immediately afterwards, Gu Ailing's name completely resounded in China, and more and more people knew her.
After the Winter Olympics, various endorsements came to the door, and for a while, Gu Ailing could be described as infinitely beautiful.
As her value continues to skyrocket, various doubts have begun to come to her, and one of the news has aroused heated discussions.
●—≺ Abandon China? Re-naturalized U.S.? ≻—●
After Gu Ailing became popular, more and more netizens worried: "Will Gu Ailing choose to return to American citizenship after becoming famous?" "Does she still need China's support now?"
After all, Gu Ailing's worth is getting higher and higher now, and if the Chinese team wants to renew her contract, it must pay a lot of price.
The worries of netizens are not superfluous.
For a while, the news of Gu Ailing's nationality was spreading, but Gu Ailing never responded to this.
At this time, some netizens found out in Gu Ailing's previous interview, in an interview about the Salt Lake Olympics in the United States.
Gu Ailing once responded: "I have been selected as their Olympic bid ambassador." This has aroused heated discussions among netizens.
Netizens picked up an interview with Gu Ailing, in which Gu Ailing said: "I am an asian American woman! This sentence means that she is an Asian American woman, and now everyone is more suspicious of her nationality affiliation.
Netizens also criticized Gu Ailing on the Internet, and spoke unceremoniously.
Not only directly scolded her for being duplicitous, but also said to her that she was making Chinese money, but she was the ambassador for the United States for the Olympic bid, what does it mean, do you think that Chinese are all "stupid people have more money"?
What really made netizens break out was a paragraph by sports media person Li Pingkang on social media.
He said publicly in the media: "Gu Ailing's contract with China will expire this year, and it is uncertain whether to renew it." ”
●—≺ What is the truth behind public opinion? ≻—●
This remark immediately caused huge public opinion on the Internet, and also made netizens think that Gu Ailing's change of nationality was more credible.
Just when the incident continues to ferment, it is about to be difficult to control, and even affect Gu Ailing's daily life.
The incident finally received a response, and on May 6, Li Pingkang issued a large explanation.
Li Pingkang said: "Although the issue of renewal of the contract cannot be determined, it has nothing to do with Gu Ailing's nationality issue, and it does not mean that Gu Ailing will change her nationality." ”
Then there was the Salt Lake City Olympic Committee, which said in a letter to Gu Ailing: "Gu Ailing is an excellent Chinese athlete!"
The mainland's official account also issued a statement: "The Olympic bid ambassador has nothing to do with nationality, as long as it is an excellent athlete, he can serve as an excellent athlete." ”
After an official reply, the matter finally came to an end.
Looking back at Gu Ailing's life experience, although she is young, she can make such an important decision to change her nationality.
From the fact that the United States became a Chinese national, it can be seen that she must have made a lot of determination.
Therefore, she has nothing to do with the "scum of the sports world" and "traitor" in the mouths of netizens.
●—≺ Epilogue≻—●
Gu Ailing has won gold medals for the mainland in international competitions many times, and we must believe in her and defend her.
When we don't know the truth, let's not evaluate a person partially.
Finally, I hope that Gu Ailing will strive for more gold medals for the mainland and continue to shine in the arena.
