——Looking at the gold medal battle, China is expected to be among the top three.
In the first six Olympic Games of this century, the Chinese delegation was among the top three in the gold medal list. Three years ago in Tokyo, China won 38 gold medals, ranking second in the gold medal table after United States by one gold.
Participating in the Paris Olympics, although the number of gold medals of the Chinese delegation is difficult to predict, it is reasonable that it will continue to rank among the top three in the gold medal list.
——Looking at the fate of the first gold, China hopes to get off to a good start.
The first gold medal at the Paris Olympics will be awarded in the shooting 10m air rifle mixed team or diving women's double 3m springboard final. As the defending champions of both events, the Chinese delegation is expected to once again win the first gold medal of the competition.
In the 10-meter air rifle mixed team competition, the two pairs of powerful "post-00" pairs of the Chinese shooting team, Huang Yuting/Sheng Lihao and Han Jiayu/Du Linshu, will form a "double insurance"; In the women's two-person three-meter springboard, the Chinese diving team has achieved five consecutive Olympic championships, and Chen Yiwen and Chang Yani, who are competing together, have not tasted defeat in this Olympic cycle.
——Look at the advantageous projects, who can stage a big package.
Diving, weightlifting, table tennis, shooting, gymnastics and badminton are traditional Chinese sports. At the Tokyo Olympics, these six events jointly contributed 27 golds, accounting for more than 70% of the total number of gold medals (38) of the Chinese delegation. In Paris, these six items are still the pillars of the Chinese delegation.
Diving, table tennis, and weightlifting are the "trump cards" in China's advantageous events, and they all have the strength to achieve all the gold medals in the participating events in this Olympic Games. Among them, the Chinese diving team has never won an Olympic championship, and this time it is expected to rewrite history in Paris.
——Look at the pool war, whether the "golden generation" can create brilliance again.
In this Olympic cycle, the Chinese swimming team ushered in a "golden generation". There are not only 6 Olympic champions such as Zhang Yufei and Wang Shun in the team, but also "Frog King" Qin Haiyang, backstroke world champion Xu Jiayu, and potential newcomers such as Pan Zhanle and Tang Qianting, who were crowned "Flying Fish" and "Frog Queen" at this year's World Championships.
At the Tokyo Olympics, the Chinese swimming team won three golds, and its best record at the Olympics was five golds, two silvers and three bronzes at the 2012 London Olympics. Now that the Olympic Games have once again settled in Europe, the Chinese swimming team has also ushered in another opportunity to create brilliance.
——Look at the ball game, whether the women's basketball and women's volleyball team can recover.
In this Olympic Games, only the women's basketball team and women's volleyball team appeared in Paris in the traditional three major ball events, which is the least number of Chinese three-ball Olympic teams in the past 40 years, and these two women's teams have also attracted much attention.
The Chinese women's volleyball team has won three Olympic championships, and the Chinese women's basketball team has also won the Olympic silver medal, but in recent years, both teams have fallen into a trough to varying degrees. In this Olympic cycle, the Chinese women's volleyball team won the runner-up in the World Women's Volleyball League Finals, and the Chinese women's basketball team also won the World Cup runner-up after 28 years, which made the outside world's expectations for these two teams rise.
- Look at the breakthrough, who can rewrite history.
In the past Olympic Games, there have always been some events that have gone down in history for making major breakthroughs. In Paris, there are also several Chinese teams that are expected to rewrite history.
In recent years, China's synchronized swimming and rhythmic gymnastics have made rapid progress, and will hit the first Olympic gold medals in these two events in Paris. The Chinese tennis team, led by Zhang Zhizhen and Zheng Qinwen, is expected to rewrite history in the men's singles and mixed doubles events. Skateboarding, breakdancing, surfing, BMX freestyle and other challenging emerging sports are a stage for young athletes to bloom and achieve breakthroughs.
- Look at the star-studded, who is the king of kings.
The Chinese delegation, which gathered 42 Olympic champions, was a star-studded one. Among them, Ma Long, the captain of the national table tennis team, is expected to win the men's team championship and be crowned the "multi-gold king" of the Chinese sports Olympics with 6 gold medals; Gong Lijiao, who is participating in the Olympic Games for the fifth time, is aiming to defend her title in the women's shot put event, and Zhang Yufei, the "butterfly queen" of the pool, is aiming not only for the gold medal, but also for the world record......
As one of the 12 top athletes highlighted by the official website of the Paris Olympics, Sun Yingsha, a famous national table tennis "post-00" player, has 3 events in women's singles, women's team and mixed doubles.
——Look at the performance of newcomers, who will break the cocoon into a butterfly.
The 223 athletes of the Chinese delegation are participating in the Olympic Games for the first time. Among these players, one is destined to complete the transition from "new star" to "star" this summer in Paris.
In this Olympic Games, Huang Yuting (shooting), Qiu Qiyuan (gymnastics), Luo Shifang (weightlifting), Leung Wai Keng/Wang Chang (badminton), as well as Pan Zhanle, Tang Qianting, Chen Yiwen, Chang Yani, Zhang Zhizhen, Zheng Qinwen and other Olympic newcomers all have the strength to compete for gold medals or achieve breakthroughs.
The youngest athlete in the Chinese delegation is 11-year-old skateboarder Zheng Haohao. Regardless of her final results, the fact that the schoolboy was able to appear on the Olympic stage is a big attraction in itself.
