China's Hou Zhihui won the gold medal in the women's weightlifting 49 kg category at the Tokyo Olympic Games on the 24th, which is also the first gold medal in the weightlifting event of the Olympic Games.

"You really should have a better editor, or Reuters would have deliberately made Chinese look 'uncomfortable' to serve certain agendas." ↓
The Chinese Embassy in Sri Lanka also dismissed Reuters' approach on Twitter. The embassy tweeted: "Of all the photos of the competition, Reuters chose such a picture, which can only reflect their ugliness. Don't put politics and ideology above sport, and don't call yourself an impartial media organization. shameless. Respect the Olympic spirit. ”
