Taipei, August 4 (Xinhua) -- At the end of 2011, the Taiwanese movie "Roll Over! "A Xin" was released on the mainland. More than 9 years later, Li Zhikai, a disciple of Lin Yuxin, the prototype of the film, won the runner-up in Kurama at the Tokyo Olympic Games, and mainland netizens praised: "It's really powerful!" "It should be the champion!" "Keep up the good work!" On the same day, mainland sprinter Su Bingtian advanced to the men's 100-meter final with a new Asian record of 9.83 seconds, and Taiwan netizens commented: "Amazing! "Super fierce!" “9.83！ It's hard to surpass for a long time! ”
At the ongoing Tokyo Olympic Games, athletes on both sides of the Taiwan Strait have worked hard and achieved good results. The good news is that as of now, the Chinese team has won 32 gold medals, ranking first in the gold medal list; the Chinese Taipei team has also won 2 gold, 4 silver and 5 bronze, with a brilliant performance.
Reporters stationed in Taiwan paid attention to the world's highest level of competition and felt the "Olympic fever" of treasure island. What is most touching is that when the players on both sides of the strait stood on the peak of the race and tried their best for their dreams, whether it was the Taiwan friends who the reporters knew, the Taiwan people they came into contact with, or the relatives and friends on the mainland and the vast number of netizens, they all cheered together and applauded each other. Such positive energy needs to be seen, spread, and "pinned" the most!
Taitung girl Guo Wanchun won the gold medal in the women's weightlifting 59 kg category, and mainland netizens not only expressed congratulations, but also praised her enthusiasm for public welfare "true kindness"; in the table tennis men's singles semifinals, Taiwanese youngster Lin Yunru regretted defeating mainland player Fan Zhendong, but mainland sports people and ordinary fans did not hesitate to praise the performance of "Kobayashi Classmate"; the badminton women's singles final was launched among players on both sides of the strait, and after the game, Taiwan netizens commented: "This is the highest level of competition!" ”
A Taiwanese friend of the reporter said that this Olympic Games often features players from both sides of the strait competing in the same field, especially the badminton men's doubles and women's singles finals. The athletes on both sides of the strait showed a high degree of sportsmanship, and the mutual congratulations and comfort between the two sides after the game were even more touching.
However, in addition to the applause, there are also some murmurs "without losing the time" to jump out to rub the heat and interfere. Some people on the island heard that Lin Yunru and Zheng Yijing had gone to the mainland this year to train with the national team and had also been vaccinated against the new crown, so they immediately couldn't sit still and started a "expedition" on the Internet. For a time, whether Lin Yunru was "the light of Taiwan" or "mainland cultivation" was hyped up.
In this regard, Taiwan's veteran media person Huang Weihan wrote that Taiwan's table tennis star Zhuang Zhiyuan followed his mother to Heilongjiang, Hubei and Sichuan to learn ball at the age of 13. Having been taught by mainland coaches, living with the top players in the mainland, eating and training, what is the problem? Some people also wrote to the media to complain bitterly, the netizens on the island originally gave Lin Yunru a very high evaluation, some people speculated that he had been trained in the mainland, the coach was also a mainlander, causing a dispute over the mouth, but the mainland people evaluated his balls, excellent character, and wished him a better future.
The reporter once interviewed a Taiwanese basketball coach who has helped train young players in the mainland for many years and has also found a stage for himself to play his talents. In fact, cross-strait sports exchanges have been around for many years, many table tennis and weightlifters in Taiwan have gone to the mainland to train with top players, and players in basketball, football, baseball and other sports have also participated in mainland leagues more and more in recent years, which are loved by fans.
"Both sides of the strait have helped Lin Yunru." A comment in Taiwan's media said that facts will not change due to distortion, so why can't we view it in a positive light as "the best embodiment of cross-strait cooperation.". Ideology and political saliva is not the strongest backing of the players, who has contributed, the players are cold and warm! The "Wang Bao" editorial said that the sports department in charge of the Taiwan authorities hastily came out to "clarify" that Lin Yunru was trained by Taiwan for a long time and that going to the mainland was only self-funded for training and short-term exchanges. This gives people traces of deliberate political manipulation, if you generously thank the mainland, and then praise the Taiwanese coach who cultivated Lin Yunru, is not the best of both worlds?
The newspaper also mentioned that some netizens found that Lin Yunru and Zheng Yijing were trained in the mainland, mingled with mainland players, and also filmed a film of cross-talk. This is the epitome of thousands of young People in Taiwan who study, work and live on the mainland. Some people have quietly worked hard for cross-strait exchanges and integration, and the results they have created have finally been seen today, which is a positive example for cross-strait relations and has also brought deeper thinking.
This is the second time this reporter has been stationed in Taiwan during the Olympic Games, the last time being the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. In contrast, the mainstream voice of applauding players on both sides of the strait has not changed, but the online atmosphere is indeed different. Why? As Huang Weihan said, "Politics makes people crazy", and Some Taiwan netizens bluntly said that "the mentality is 'anti-China', and it is extremely boring to be poor."
Rubbing the heat of the contestants' good results, taking the opportunity to "take the wind direction" and carry out political speculation, not to mention more than one example. A few days ago, a number of "Taiwan independence" groups launched the so-called "call me Taiwan team" activity, and Ji Zheng, who had promoted the "correct name of Taiwan at the Tokyo Olympics," announced that he would launch another "referendum on the correct name of the Paris Olympics."
Some Taiwan media people submitted a letter saying that while the Olympic Games were in full swing, the Green Camp Network Army was not idle, setting off a controversy over whether the "Chinese team" or the "Taiwan team." Fortunately, in 2018, the referendum launched by The government of The "application for participation in the Tokyo Olympics in the name of Taiwan" was not passed, otherwise there would be no good results this time, and it would not be possible to participate in the Tokyo Olympic Games. Another person wrote an article recalling what Guo Wanchun, who won the gold in 2018, said: "Active players are currently working hard to fight for Olympic points and defend their stage, and the referendum has not passed, and the players are more at ease." ”
In response to the so-called "Tokyo Olympics Taiwan's correct name", dozens of Taiwanese athletes have publicly expressed their opposition. "Lianhe Bao" recently published a short commentary saying that the contestants were worried about not being able to participate in the competition, expressed their opposition, and were bullied by the Internet army, and Guo Wanchun was deeply affected by it and was extremely humiliated. The so-called "correct name" is futile and leads to social tearing. The political heat must stop at the right time, and the "Paris Olympic Name Referendum" ends here!
At this moment, the Tokyo Olympic Games are still continuing, and the journey of athletes to challenge themselves and challenge their limits is endless. They and their coaches and families have worked hard for many years, and ordinary people cannot appreciate the weight of dreams and costs. If you can't give them sincere applause, at least don't hurt them. (End)
