On August 9, Beijing time, at about 21:00 late yesterday, Sun Yang, a hero in the Chinese swimming world, and Liu Jianhong, a former CCTV celebrity, had a dialogue and talked about his situation, Sun Yang cried bitterly in an interview, and his eyes were red.
Being interviewed at the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games is undoubtedly a stinging pain for Sun Yang, after all, he has waited for 5 years on this day, as a hero who has contributed three gold medals to the Chinese team in two Olympic Games, it is the biggest blow to Sun Yang not being able to participate in the Olympic Games. Sun Yang talked about many hot topics, first of all, he said that he has been paying attention to the performance of good friends such as Gong Lijiao and Su Bingtian, who have won historic breakthroughs and are also paying attention to some other niche projects. In addition, seeing the 14-year-old Quan Hongchan, who can stand on the field as the youngest athlete and win the championship, this means a lot of success.
Sun Yang talked about his current state, he said that he will swim 4 km to 5 km distance every day, and in 7 days, he will go to the gym for physical training in about 3 to 4 days, as for whether the Paris Olympics will play, or from his own point of view. In fact, this choice is very difficult, after all, I will be more than 30 years old. For a veteran over 30 years old, it will be a very big test, and it will take a lot more effort than young athletes to do it.
Then Liu Jianhong asked Sun Yang whether to consider the topic of retirement, Sun Yang cried bitterly on the spot, Sun Yang said that he had considered related ideas since last year, but no matter when he left the pool, I believe that before such a day came, I hope that I can do swimming promotion, do the training, and learn a skill, or hope that in the future, I can let the Chinese swimming successor have someone to bring more outstanding talents to the Chinese team on the field.
The author believes that such a Sun Yang is enough to be touching. This time, instead of saying something or doing something under the protection of his parents, he bravely opened his heart, which was a great improvement. This is the first time that Sun Yang has publicly talked about the topic of possible consideration of retirement, but I believe that most netizens hope to see him continue to insist on practicing for another three years, and strive to return to the Olympic battlefield after three years of lifting the ban, winning the gold medal for the Chinese team after 30 years old, and I believe that the experience of winning a huge breakthrough at the age of 30 can inspire him. If Sun Yang can win the gold medal next time, perhaps China is expected to surpass the United States in the gold medal list.
