There are still more than three months to go, and the Paris Olympics are just over the corner.
Zhu Ting, the women's ranking general who has been absent from the national team for a long time, officially announced her return to fight for the country.
This is exciting news no matter how you look at it.
But after reading the 500-word Weibo long article announcing Zhu Ting's return, it made people feel a little more embarrassed.
"Since the Tokyo Olympics, all kinds of gossip and deliberate attacks on me on the Internet have not stopped, and even affected my family, I lost interest in volleyball for a while, hoping to stay away from the disturbances of right and wrong, so I submitted an application for retirement to the Henan Provincial Sports Bureau......
Just because the Chinese women's volleyball team was eliminated in advance at the Tokyo Olympics, the main force of the women's volleyball team, who has won the World Cup and the Olympic Games, was pointed out by thousands of people, and rumors are flying all over the sky.
What "I don't work hard, I just want to go abroad to make a lot of money";
What "played a big name, and became an enmity with Master Lang";
What "because of tens of millions of endorsements to anger teammates and be isolated"
……
All in all, what those remarks refer to is nothing more than this: the national team lost, and Zhu Ting was the culprit.
There are even conspiracy theorists, intentionally or unintentionally, who cite Zhu Ting as "having no sense of national honor" and "staying abroad to make money".
That posture is really longing for people to be ruined.
But the fact is that Lang Ping has clearly explained publicly that Zhu Ting has limited game time because of a wrist injury. Due to the pre-game pressure, he "couldn't sleep and couldn't eat".
But for the sake of national honor, Zhu Ting still took the risk.
As a result, we also saw that the hero shed blood and tears.
In desperation, Zhu Ting could only choose to call the police and sue the rumor-mongers in court.
But the swarm of smelly flies didn't even think about stopping in moderation.
Later, they found her "vacation" photos on Zhu Ting's friend's social account.
And then hyped it up, saying that all injuries and illnesses are already on the tour, and it is really "ungrateful" that they have not returned to the national team......
In the end, Zhu Ting's friend couldn't bear it anymore and appeared to refute the rumors:
During this time, Zhu Ting has been busy with rehabilitation training.
This time, I happened to come to Hong Kong for a check-up and was invited to a friend's birthday party.
And this is also the only time in so many years that she has "successfully invited".
Previously, even if Lang Ping gave all the staff a holiday, Zhu Ting also spent it in training.
But this explanation was once again ridiculed: "Take a small operation as a chicken feather arrow!"
Because of one failure, she was endlessly abused, slandered, and even denied everything about her.
This scene is all too familiar to us.

Go back to the Tokyo Olympics that year.
On the first day of the official competition, the women's 10m air rifle.
23-year-old Wang Luyao, ranked 18th, failed to advance to the qualifying round.
After that, she posted a selfie in her pajamas, with the caption: "Sorry everyone, I admit that I was cowardly, see you in three years".
This was originally just a self-deprecation to cheer yourself up after a loss.
The message is full of malice:
"What do you mean, you've lost and you're still taking a selfie with your face?"
"Just after the competition, you posted a selfie in the blink of an eye, you want to be popular too much......!"
In the end, the little girl was sprayed and her mentality exploded, and she hurriedly deleted the article and apologized.
Wang Luyao's trouble here is not over yet, and the table tennis team is "causing big trouble" again.
In the mixed doubles field, there was an unexpected upset, and the veterans Xu Xin and Liu Shiwen who had made great achievements lost to the Japanese combination who were in full form.
In the post-match interview, Liu Shiwen cried several times and even said "I'm sorry", because this may be her last Olympics for her country.
In fact, when I watched the live broadcast that day, I was worried that some people would blow up.
Sure enough, the trolls were surging under the Weibo message that day.
The most messages for Liu Shiwen:
"Garbage! Even the Japanese dare to lose, don't come back!"
"What kind of nail art do you Liu Shiwen wear, no one else has Japanese players painted, and they don't take the game seriously when they see it. ”
Of course, Xu Xin didn't run away:
"The mentality is so bad, it's really bad to be your teammate. ”
"It's still rubbish after all these years!"
But before that, when it came to Xu Xin, they were talking about "the last glory of the straight board", and Liu Shiwen was also a "genius girl".
Don't worry, that's not all.
When we turned our attention to the diving team, the just-concluded men's double 10-meter platform, Chen Aisen and Cao Yuan, had mixed feelings in their hearts.
Because Cao Yuan did not play well, they were defeated by British stars Daley and Martin by an extremely slight disadvantage.
But looking at the plaster here and there, no matter how you look at it, it can be regarded as a defeat and a glory.
But before they stood on the podium, someone on the Internet secretly said that it was really "a grain of mouse feces that hurt a pot of porridge".
What's more, there are conspiracy theories, saying that Cao Yuan has won the singles championship, and if he loses this gold medal, he is pit his teammates.
Isn't this nonsense, what's even more ridiculous is that some people really believe it, and they spread the deeds of Cao Yuan's "treacherous villain" with nose and eyes.
To be honest, these athletes are fighting the stage of the world competition, of course, to win greater personal honors, but at the same time, they are also winning glory for the country.
If you don't respect their contributions, it doesn't matter, scolding and slandering people's innocence, are you doing personnel?

There's a saying that's particularly well said:
"Once the hero is found, he will also fall into the well, and the stone-throwing person will be extraordinarily brave, and the crowd will be extraordinarily crowded. ”
Writer Zhang Wei told two small things about Liu Xiang.
In 2006, Liu Xiang was at his peak, and during the winter training, he went to interview.
After dinner, the group went to KTV together.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man in a black shirt and a gold chain broke in, and several big brothers in suits stopped at the door.
The crowd was shocked.
I saw the man walk up to Liu Xiang, arch his hand at him, and say, "Liu Xiang!
Then he turned and left.
Another time, the writer and Liu Xiang took a taxi together.
Because it was near the General Administration of Sports in Beijing, the driver asked them if they were athletes.
They denied it.
Then the driver said something very interesting.
He said that if he is an athlete, he can skip the fare.
However, there is one additional condition: the World Series, to enter the top three, this is called winning glory for the country, and it is a big hero.
Otherwise, it's a "big bear."
Liu Xiang sat in the back row and didn't say a word.
Since then, no matter how dazzling Liu Xiang has been, we only remember his two withdrawals at the Beijing Olympics and the London Olympics.
Even after the fact, we have received very professional explanations from authoritative media countless times.
For the first time, Liu Xiang had an Achilles tendon injury.
"If you stiffen up and tear your Achilles tendon completely, you might go to the Paralympics. ”
Later, surgery was performed to remove three pieces of calcified material and a bone spur.
The second time, he fell while attacking the first hurdle, ruptured his Achilles tendon, and his athletic career was basically reimbursed.
But what about the facts?
There are many people who open their eyes and tell nonsense:
"Disgrace the country and put on a miserable show. ”
"It's so good to pretend, if it were me, I would have climbed to the end. ”
"Fake fall expert, actor. ”
Just when CCTV broadcast Liu Xiang's retirement ceremony live, some people complained online:
"Except for the tears, it's all fake. ”
"The little Jiujiu in Liu Xiang's heart is as many as the pits on his face. ”
Many years later, there was a wave of "we owe Liu Xiang an apology" on the Internet.
But I always remember Liu Xiang's self-deprecation in the interview:
"Everybody wants to say a few words for me, and once something happens, no one wants to say a few words for me, that's how people are. ”
If there is a chance, will the people who scolded Liu Xiang back then really apologize to him sincerely?
Most likely, not.
Because they're busy looking for their next prey.

Q: Why is there such a group of people who are so enthusiastic about "Heroes of Destruction"?
A quote comes to mind:
"A beam of light enters the tower, and the filth and filth in the tower are revealed, and the light becomes sinful. ”
Not to mention the athletes who go out for the country, even scientists like Yuan Longping, who have worked silently, were not scolded for being extravagant because of their "luxury cars"; were they scolded for greedy pleasure when they lived in an apartment rewarded by the state?
And for the grassroots women's education, Principal Zhang Guimei, who is tired and sick, sets a strict schedule for students, isn't it also said that "abuse of minors"?
In fact, whenever I see similar incidents, I can't help but feel deep worries in my heart.
They don't have to be lifted up to the altar, and they shouldn't be trampled underfoot.
I was scared, afraid that these people who could do something for this country and were willing to do something for this country were cold in their hearts and their blood was cold.
At that time, there were only more and more people around us, who harmed others and benefited themselves.
So, don't let the tragedies of Liu Xiang and Zhu Ting play out again and again.
A man can be humble as dust, and not twisted as maggots.
