1. The highlight moment of the new star in the table tennis world
2023 will undoubtedly be a brilliant year for Chinese table tennis player Sun Yingsha. At just 21 years old, she won 14 consecutive titles in a row, including seven women's singles titles. Such an impressive result not only won her many prize money, but also made her a hot new star in the table tennis world.
At the just-concluded Table Tennis World Cup in Macau, China, Sun Yingsha once again showed her outstanding strength and won the women's singles championship. This also means that she is firmly on the throne of the new generation of leaders of Chinese table tennis women's singles. At the award ceremony, she contrasted sharply with Olympic champion Ma Long, who wore a valuable watch, while Sun Yingsha wore domestic clothes worth less than 1,000 yuan.
Such a contrast has aroused widespread attention and discussion from the outside world. Why did a rising star with an annual income of 4 million yuan choose to wear a low-key and simple domestic product? What is the story behind it?
2. The values behind simple life
As for the reason why Sun Yingsha chose to wear domestic products, we can find the answer from her two habits.
First, Sun Yingsha is a "pistachio" who likes to grab orders. At dinners with her teammates, she always took the initiative to ask for the bill, and she never skimped even when the level of consumption abroad was high. This generous personality made her the "leader" of her teammates.
Second, Sun Yingsha has been actively participating in public welfare undertakings and giving generously. According to statistics, in the past 6 years, her total public welfare donations have exceeded 3 million yuan. This includes her donations of 1 million and 500,000 yuan to the Hubei Red Cross Society and Wuhan in 2020. At the same time, she has also participated in many public welfare projects of the Han Hong Foundation.
It is not difficult for us to find that Sun Yingsha's lifestyle reflects more of a simplicity, atmosphere, and care and responsibility for others. She uses her money wisely, that is, for dinners, public welfare, etc., rather than in the pursuit of luxuries. As table tennis celebrity Wang Nan said, Sun Yingsha is "very clean, her brain is full of table tennis", and she does not focus too much on clothing, luxury goods, etc.
Behind this value orientation, Sun Yingsha's unique attitude towards life is reflected. She pays more attention to inner cultivation, focusing on dedication and giving back, rather than excessive pursuit of material comforts. Such a way of life undoubtedly reflects the character and feelings that an excellent athlete should have.
3. Correct attitude towards money
We all know that Sun Yingsha, as a popular star of the Chinese table tennis team, has an annual income of about 4 million yuan. Such a considerable income is enough for her to live a worry-free life and enjoy a superior life. However, we have seen that she chose to wear a 100-yuan domestic product to show off her people, which undoubtedly shows her unique attitude towards money.
First, Sun Yingsha cherishes money and learns to use it rationally. We can see from her habit of grabbing orders and donating large sums of money that she is not a stereotypical and stingy character, but on the contrary, she is a very cultivated person who knows how to use money reasonably. She spends her money where it is needed and beneficial to society, rather than extravagantly wasting on luxuries.
Second, Sun Yingsha sees money as a "tool" rather than a goal in life. For her, money is just a means to achieve her ideals and pursuits. Rather than seeing money as the whole of life, she focuses on her professional skills and social values. This correct view of money undoubtedly reflects her inner cultivation.
Third, Sun Yingsha actively fulfills her social responsibilities. From her generous public donations, we can see that she attaches great importance to her social responsibility as a public figure. She did not spend all her money on herself, but chose to give back to the society, and interpreted the feelings that an excellent athlete should have with practical actions.
To sum up, we can see that Sun Yingsha's attitude towards money reflects the character that an excellent athlete should have. She can not only cherish money, use it wisely, but also regard it as a tool to realize ideals and values, and at the same time actively fulfill social responsibilities, which is undoubtedly worthy of our learning and admiration.
Fourth, the all-round development of an elite athlete
The reason why Sun Yingsha has been able to achieve such brilliant achievements is that in addition to her outstanding professional skills, she has also demonstrated many qualities that an excellent athlete should have.
The first is her tenacious and hard-working spirit. Judging from her performance on the court, she does her best every game, and she has a strong sense of competition and desire to win. This spirit of never giving up and having the courage to challenge has also become a source of motivation for her continuous progress.
The second is her character of being good at unity and cooperation. As the "pistachio" of the team, she often takes the initiative to invite her coach and teammates to have dinner together. This kind of caring and helpful characteristics not only reflect her friendliness and atmosphere, but also lay the foundation for the harmonious development of the team.
Again, it is her passion for public welfare. From her generous public donations, we see her sense of responsibility and commitment to the society. This concept of integrating personal value with social value undoubtedly demonstrates her social responsibility as an excellent athlete.
Finally, she has a simple life and an indifferent attitude towards fame and fortune. As mentioned earlier, she chooses to invest her money in more valuable places than in pursuit of luxury. This way of life reflects her profound cultivation and pattern.
It can be said that Sun Yingsha is not only an outstanding table tennis player, but also an excellent representative of professionalism, moral cultivation and social responsibility. Her upbringing has undoubtedly set a respectable example for us to learn.
Fifth, the future can be expected - to create another brilliant table tennis world
Looking forward to the future, we can believe that with Sun Yingsha's excellent professional skills and excellent character cultivation, she will surely achieve better results in the next competitions and continue to write a legend in the table tennis world.
First of all, she will go all out for gold at the upcoming Paris Olympics. As the leader of the new generation of Chinese table tennis women's singles, Sun Yingsha is undoubtedly the favorite to win the Olympic championship. Her excellent skills, tenacious sense of competition and excellent teamwork will undoubtedly be a strong support for her to climb to the top of the Olympic Games. We believe that on this highest-level stage, she will once again add glory to China's sports industry.
Secondly, she will continue to play her role as a role model and set a benchmark for more young athletes. As a rising star in the Chinese table tennis world, Sun Yingsha's professional ethics, teamwork, social responsibility and other qualities will surely become an important force to inspire generations of athletes to struggle. She used practical actions to explain what is the spiritual outlook of an excellent athlete, which will surely become an important support for the healthy development of China's sports industry.
Finally, she will continue to exert her influence in philanthropy. As mentioned above, Sun Yingsha has been actively participating in various public welfare projects and giving back to the society with practical actions. In the future, we believe that she will continue to exert her public appeal, drive more enthusiastic people to participate in social welfare undertakings, and contribute to the construction of a better society.
In general, Sun Yingsha is undoubtedly a dazzling new star in contemporary Chinese table tennis.
