Yesterday (19th), Zhang Hao, a Legend of Chinese Figure Skating and the Elder of the Five Dynasties of the Winter Olympics, suddenly caught fire, ranking in the top ten of hot search late at night, because he was accused of deliberately throwing his female companion.
Some netizens sent out several GIFs of the scene of the game, saying that Zhang Hao repeatedly threw the opponent deliberately when completing the figure skating difficulty technique with his teammates, resulting in his inability to complete the aerial rotation action and falling heavily to the ground.
The netizen believes that Zhang Hao is old and has not retired from retirement, and the behavior of forcibly dismantling other groups of golden partners is like "robbing people's women", and after forcibly forming a team, he deliberately drops his female teammates, so that such a person can still stay in the national team is a kind of "sexism" in the sports world.
The blog post triggered a fierce debate between netizens on both sides. Netizens who supported the original blogger continued to attack Zhang Hao.
However, more people are opposed to the blogger's judgment that Zhang Hao "deliberately fell", believing that the mistake is more likely to be caused by the two people's poor technology and tacit understanding, and many people asked "Who went to the field to deliberately wrestle with the female companion?" ”
Some netizens said that like the original blogger, it is groundless to regard the mistakes on the field as "sex discrimination" is a forced rise on the line.
Some people also analyzed from the technical level, saying that although there are controversies such as "changing teammates" on Zhang Hao, it does not mean that he will be an athlete who deliberately drops his teammates on the field. The original blogger's example is the "throw around jump" in the pair figure skating, and the common "throw around the jump" has an essential difference in difficulty, and the error rate is also extremely high, which is a great test of the skills and cooperation of the two.
Many ice sports enthusiasts have said that Zhang Hao does have technical movements that are not light and smooth enough, and his attitude towards female companions after falling is not intimate enough, but it will not reach the point of deliberately dropping female partners.
"Throwing around the jump" is indeed an "extreme" difficulty event in pairs figure skating, and since Zhang Hao and Zhang Dan's "thrilling jump" at the Turin Winter Olympics in 2006, the Chinese double figure skating team has spent nearly 20 years studying this difficult action.
According to a 2015 report by CCTV, the national team has carried out very hard training in order to be able to break through the jumping difficulties at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics.
Elbow pads, knee pads, thick hip pads and helmets are necessary equipment for every female team member to jump around during training, because they are constantly falling throughout the training session.
The throwing of the male partner, the physical control of the female partner, and the final falling ice, even if a small detail is not in place, the throwing around the jump is not successful.
But even if there is a danger of falling, both coaches and athletes are full of energy, hoping to overcome the throwing around the jump.

According to Xinhua News, throwing around the jump was once a secret weapon for Chinese players, and Shen Xue and Zhao Hongbo tried this move for the first time at the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics, but it was not done clean enough.
Later, the main rivals of the Chinese team, Canada and Russia, began to be able to complete the four-week jump, and the figure skating team's pair skating head coach Zhao Hongbo responded by saying that the Chinese team would try to throw the four-week jump on the field, hoping to use this action in the game.
Since then, as one of the few combinations in China that can complete the throwing four-week jump, Sui Wenjing and Han Cong have begun to compile the throwing four-week jumping action in major competitions to try to rush to the championship.
At the 2016 Figure Skating World Championships, the duo presented a "double four-sided jump" of unparalleled difficulty, and one of the mistakes finally affected the subsequent skating.

Some netizens were upset about Zhang Haoming after understanding the situation, and as one of the heroines of the "fallen", Zhang Dan also "ate" the melon on Weibo yesterday.
She has a top-of-the-line Weibo that she and Zhang Hao completed at the 11th National Games in 2005.
Some netizens believe that this is her strong response to "Zhang Hao deliberately wrestling female companion".
The example given by the original bloggers is the mistakes of Zhang Dan and Zhang Hao at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin. At that time, the two finally appeared, Zhang Dan split his legs and fell on the ice during the fall of the throwing around jump, and crashed into the fence, standing up and once unable to continue the game.
At that time, many people thought that the duo would withdraw from the competition, but unexpectedly, the two returned to the field after a short break, and finally won the silver medal accompanied by the beautiful and exciting melody of "Descendants of the Dragon", which was the best result achieved by the national team figure skating doubles team at that time.
According to the City Express, after the game, a foreign reporter asked Zhang Dan how much pain he really was in. Zhang Hao whispered to the translator: "You told her that throwing around is the limit of the human body's ability to withstand, and how much pain do you say it can be when you fall heavily on the ice at this speed?" ”
In the post-match interview at that time, Zhang Hao and Zhang Dan only stopped for a moment and then left in a hurry. Afterwards, Zhang Hao apologetically explained: "Zhang Dan's injury was too serious, before the game, because we had done many times to throw around, her crotch had already swollen and high, and now she fell like this, she even had a hard time standing, I don't want her to suffer anymore." ”
Immediately after the post-match press conference, Zhang Dan was escorted away. To the question of "why do you still choose to continue to play in the case of injury", Zhang Hao replied that because it is a four-year Olympic Games, neither of them wants to miss this opportunity.
Zhang Hao said that the two have worked together for 8 years, and this experience has made each other grow, "After the injury to the time before the restart, I kept asking her 'can't do it, if you can't do it, you can give up', she said yes, you must stick to it." My partner is fantastic, I think she's very strong, especially great. It's really not easy and we're going to cherish this silver medal very much. ”
