Recently, because I watched the Winter Olympic Torch short film, I met a girl named "Gu Ailing", which is the first time I heard this name. At first, I was confused by the fact that this girl named "Gu Ailing" was actually able to star in the Winter Olympic Torch Short Film?
However, as more and more reports were reported on her, I found out that she was not only a "genius girl", but also a "patriotic girl"! The more I got to know her, the more I was surprised, but more admired. This 18-year-old girl completely conquered me!
In 2003, Gu Ailing was born in the United States. Dad was American and graduated from Harvard University in his early years. Mom is an authentic Beijinger, graduated from Peking University, Stanford, named Gu Yan, Gu Ailing with her mother's surname. Born in such a powerful background family, her life is destined to be extraordinary!
It is also true that at a young age she showed great athletic talent. He began to learn to ski at the age of 3 and began to win awards at the age of 9. In addition to skiing, Gu Ailing also likes sports such as field running, football, basketball climbing, and horse riding. In addition, in terms of art, she is involved in piano, ballet, musicals, etc.
Of course, her favorite sport is especially skiing!
Perhaps because her mother is also a ski enthusiast, when Gu Airing was 3 years old, her mother took her to ski for the first time, she showed a strong talent for skiing, and even glide freely in the ski resort without a teacher. At the age of 8, Gu Ailing joined a professional ski club, which made her very happy.
At the age of 9, she won her first gold medal in her life, and then she received more and more honors:
In 2014, at the age of 11, he won the National Under-13 Ramp Steeplechase Championship and the runner-up in the all-around;
In 2015, at the age of 12, she won 7 gold medals in the Northern California women's 13-year-old double board slew track track Rail Jam and the scramble;
At just 14 years old, she has already won 50 medals, almost winning the prize, a veritable genius ski girl.
In the eyes of most people, as long as they are talented in sports, the general cultural results are average. But Gu Ailing is an exception, not only a first-class athlete, but also a veritable bully, but also a "child of others" in the eyes of most parents!
In December 2020, Gu Ailing received an acceptance letter from Stanford University with a score of 1580 on the STA test, and she spent all her time studying except for training, but she never cried tired. The results proved that her efforts were rewarding, and there would be rewards for her efforts!
Because her mother is a Chinese, every year during the holidays, her mother often takes her back to Beijing to play. Although she was born and raised in the United States, because of her family, she was able to speak fluently Chinese from an early age. Perhaps because she has half of China's genes in her bones, Gu Ailing is very fascinated by the scenery and cuisine of the motherland, and deeply loves the country.
So, in June 2019, when Gu Ailing was 16 years old, she made a surprising decision, she decided to quit americanity and join Chinese nationality!
Asked why he wanted to join the Chinese nationality, Gu Ailing said: I want to win a gold medal for the motherland!
In August 2019, Gu Ailing represented China for the first time in the Freestyle Ski Slope Obstacle Course New Zealand Open Competition and successfully won the gold medal;
In January 2020, Gu Ailing won the silver medal in the freestyle skiing women's slope obstacle course final at the Lausanne Winter Youth Olympic Games; the gold medal in the freestyle ski U-shaped pool final; and another gold medal in the freestyle ski women's big jump final;
Now, she will represent the motherland in the Beijing Winter Olympics, and I think it is a glorious feast waiting for her! Gu Ailing has become a highly popular skier in China, not only because of her achievements on the field, but also because of her more unlimited possibilities in the future!
We wish all athletes a great shine and a great victory at the Beijing Winter Olympics!
