On November 27, the official website of the Chinese Olympic Committee reprinted an article from China Sports Daily entitled "Resolutely Resist the Chaos of the "Fan Circle" and Focus on the Overall Situation of the Cause".
The article was also reproduced on the official website of the General Administration of Sports of China.
The content of the whole network is as follows:
The phenomenon of the chaos of the "fan circle" spreading and infiltrating into the sports field has been staged again and again recently.
During the China Badminton Masters in Shenzhen last week, Japanese women's doubles player Chiyo Shida was on her way back to her hotel after the match when she was met with crazy followers and irrational intimate encounters with so-called fans. Chiyo Shida appealed via social media afterwards: "Please maintain an appropriate distance to ensure comfort and respect for both parties." Because excessive physical contact may make the other person feel uncomfortable or upset. Coincidentally, during the National Diving Championships held last week, Quan Hongchan won the second place in the women's single 10-meter platform. After the game, Quan Hongchan sincerely said that her performance was not as good as that of the champion Chen Yuxi, but some so-called fans angrily reprimanded the referee and lowered Quan Hongchan's scores in the two actions of 407C and 207C, which startled Quan Hongchan at the time. Afterwards, Olympic champion He Chong said with concern that this kind of fan-circle thinking, words and deeds are very dangerous and terrifying, and will have a negative impact on the growth of athletes. This kind of "low-level fan" seems to be out of love for idols, and impulsively makes irrational actions that endanger the normal order of the event, public order and good customs, sportsmanship and social morality, but in fact, there are many dancers in the chain of interests dressed as fans, and they have always been extremely rational and sober in the face of interests. Let me ask, if we truly love sports and are truly inspired by sports role models and sportsmanship, will we do one after another things that hurt sports role models and sportsmanship? The chaos of the "fan circle" is just a symptom, and if it is not driven by all kinds of interests, such irrational impulses will certainly not last long.
Openness, fairness, justice, morality, style, cleanliness, etc., are the key words and distinctive characteristics of the field of sports. The Chinese Olympic Committee has issued a special statement, calling on all sectors of society to respect the individual rights and interests of athletes, rationally pursue stars, avoid inappropriate words and deeds, and resolutely put an end to the spread of the "fan circle" chaos to the sports field. Not long ago, the video of national table tennis player Wang Chuqin angrily scolding "fans" after being followed at the airport went viral on the Internet, and afterwards he clearly expressed his strong willingness to resist "proxy shooting" and long-term follow-up. Chinese women's basketball player Yang Shuyu also made it clear: "Don't pick up the plane, don't like it, see you on the court, thank you." ”
Vigorously carry forward the spirit of Chinese sportsmanship, so that athletes can feel at ease and concentrate on their own work, so as to better play the power of sports role models, encourage and motivate more and more sports fans to pay attention to sports and participate in sports for a long time, and jointly contribute to the construction of a sports power.
