【1435】 Superstar

Tonight, Sun Yang became the most dazzling superstar in the Tokyo Water Sports Center and even the entire Olympics. The legend of 8 gold medals in a single Olympics was staged again under the gaze of more than one billion TV viewers around the world, which is very sad!

12 years ago, Phelps' record of 8 gold medals and the legend of accumulating 23 Olympic gold medals four years ago made people all over the world sigh at him, the greatest athlete in Olympic history, and everyone thinks this may become a masterpiece.

But just tonight, the lights in Tokyo were covered by Sun Yang's bright light. The 8-Gold Miracle and 11 gold medals in three Olympic Games made him ranked second in the century-old Olympic history and the first swimming superstar to win all freestyle championships. In addition to the individual single championships from 50 meters to 1500 meters, Sun Yang also cooperated with his teammates to win two gold medals: 4*100 meters freestyle relay and 4*200 meters freestyle relay. If it weren't for the Olympic swimming competition that did not have the 800-meter freestyle set, Sun Yang would definitely have won more gold medals.

You know, Sun Yang has won five consecutive freestyle championships in the 800m freestyle in the World Swimming Championships and maintained the world record. You can imagine his dominance in the field of freestyle!

Through the transmission of the Internet and satellites, Sun Yang's moment of touching the wall spread to every corner of the world. At this time, everyone abandoned the differences in race, politics and ideologically, cheering for the Olympic spirit of human beings of "higher, faster, and stronger"!

Over the years, due to Sun Yang's outstanding performance in the swimming event, he has replaced Phelps as a benchmark in the international swimming world and has made great contributions to the promotion of the swimming event around the world.

Superstars in international sports, football, basketball, tennis and racing have huge influence and commercial value internationally, but many Olympic events themselves cannot achieve such a high status. Even the most eye-catching 100-meter swimmers and swimming superstars in the Olympics are not even as good as baseball internationally. Ice hockey players earn more money and have relatively low status.

Sun Yang is invincible in the swimming world, and the Chinese market behind him has made him a sought after by international media and sponsors, and his international influence has continued to rise in recent years.

In the eyes of international media and the public, Sun Yang has become superstars currently active in the international sports world, along with Li Yan, Xiao Dayi and Ah Lian.

This time, Sun Yang was crowned king in Tokyo, and almost brought swimming to a new peak with his own strength, shining extremely brightly!

…………

Xiao Feng, standing in the stands, also felt honored. After all, Sun Yang had his own little contribution to the outbreak in Tokyo.

Today, China is rapidly catching up with the United States in terms of economy; in the military, high-end technology is also constantly narrowing the gap with the world's leading level, and the rise of a major power is already unstoppable. In this case, continuously enhancing the physical fitness of the people and enhancing the soft power of the country has become an inevitable choice, and many content that cannot be specifically quantified can be reflected through the Olympics platform.

In previous Olympics, Huaxia Swimming was only able to seek breakthroughs in certain events and was not considered a "swimming power". However, at this year's Tokyo Olympics, Huaxia Swimming Team became the biggest winner in the swimming pool, making the first place in the gold medal list of the Chinese delegation very valuable.

As the national idol of China, Xiao Feng can no longer win glory for the country on the front line of competitive sports. His golf gold medal at this Olympic Games is more of a voting nature. However, this does not prevent him from silently supporting the Chinese Olympic delegation in his own way. Every medal and every athlete who strives hard on the field have become better because of the existence of Xiao Feng and the "Jinghu Group".

Three months before the opening of the Olympic Games, most athletes from the Chinese delegation conducted final closed training at the "Ginkgo Base". Whether it is the training quality of the plateau, the sufficient energy provided by top ingredients, or the "Ginkgo Hospital" with internationally leading medical and physiotherapy methods, all athletes from the Chinese delegation were able to come to Tokyo in the best condition.

After arriving in Tokyo, all Chinese athletes were concentrated in the "Huaxia Canteen" for dinner. All the ingredients used were top-quality products carefully selected by the "Jinghu Group". Even the mineral water drunk by the delegation members was airlifted from the "Ginkgo Village".

In order to supply a large team of nearly 1,000 people in the delegation, a cargo charter flight will arrive in Tokyo every two days from the Ginkgo International Airport with various ingredients. There are a total of 8 cargo flights during the Olympic Games, and the required fees will be paid by the Huaxia Olympic Organizing Committee partner "Jinghu Group".

Facts have proved that plateau training and the "Space Spirit Spring" have allowed athletes of the Chinese delegation to perform better in this Olympics. Now, halfway through the schedule, they have won 35 Olympic gold medals, approaching the results of the 2012 London Olympics.

The wonderful performance of the Chinese Olympic delegation in Tokyo also made the international community admire China's sports cause, and the image of the Chinese Empire as a great power is more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Although the Chinese Empire now does not need Olympic gold medals or world champions to prove anything, it is also a good thing to be able to win more Olympic gold medals.

…………

The next day, mainstream media around the world focused on Sun Yang's feat in Tokyo, and almost most of the media's headlines were Sun Yang, who became the hottest superstar during the Olympics.

For Chinese people, Sun Yang won 8 gold medals at the Olympics, and everyone felt extremely proud. This impact was even greater than when Xiao Feng led the team to win the Olympic men's basketball gold medal and the NBA three consecutive championships.

After all, quantitative change will always trigger qualitative change. Sun Yang's 8 gold medals allowed him to surpass Xiao Feng's influence in the field of sports. From this time, Sun Yang can be regarded as the "national idol" of China! From 8-year-old children to octogenarians, everyone knows that there is a boy named Sun Yang who is very good at swimming and the world's number one!

Under Sun Yang's extremely dazzling light, the Chinese Olympic delegation is also a hot target for domestic media. After all, in this Olympic Games, in addition to maintaining the leading position in China's traditional advantageous events, many athletes have also made new breakthroughs in many fields. The delegation firmly occupied the gold medal list when the schedule was halfway through the schedule, and the first place in the medal list, historically suppressing the American delegation.

Today, the lives of Chinese people have been greatly improved and they have more pursuits for spiritual civilization. Olympic athletes have won gold and silver and worked hard at the Olympics, and are naturally loved by the people of the whole country.

Especially for athletes participating in this Olympic Games, except for a few born in the 1985s like Xiao Feng, most of them are born in the 1990s, and even a considerable number of them are born in the 2000s. The temperaments shown by these athletes in public make people feel that they are more like ‘human’!

This is not an exaggeration. Under the past professional sports school training system, professional athletes were more of the experts in training and competitions, but there were many shortcomings in other aspects.

However, after entering the new century, the cultivation model of sports talents in the Chinese Empire has undergone many changes. Athletes are no longer satisfied with their professional abilities, but have improved their abilities in all aspects, which gives these athletes more development choices after retirement.

Since the magical interview video of Fu Hui's last Olympics was broadcast, more and more people have become more and more fond of these young athletes with personality, because they are no longer the ‘machines’ that only know how to train and compete in people’s established impressions, but are not much different from their own children.

Under such circumstances, the enthusiasm of Chinese people for Olympic athletes can be imagined, especially Sun Yang and many gold medal players born in the 1995 and 2000 have become the darlings of the media, sponsors and sports fans.

It can be said that because of the emergence of many idol-level athletes in this Olympics, and Tokyo and China are close to each other, this Olympics has become the most popular sports event after the Peking Olympics, and CCTV's ratings are constantly rising!

To this end, CCTV provides comprehensive reports on the Olympics in columns such as comprehensive channels, news channels, economic channels, and Olympic channels. As long as there are competitions that Chinese athletes participate in, even the most unpopular games will be broadcast live throughout the whole process!

Sponsors are also willing to spend money, especially when they pay huge advertising fees during the broadcast of key events. This Olympic Games has become a win-win situation. Whether it is delegation athletes, TV stations, media, sponsors and sports fans, they have reaped their own benefits and happiness!

…………

The end of the swimming event made Xiao Feng's family feel a little disappointed, because they were used to cheering for Sun Yang and the Chinese swimming team in the stands of the water sports center. The 15 gold medals of the swimming team in the Olympics and the remaining 10 medals made them very happy!

The day after the Olympic swimming competition, Xiao Feng's family did not continue to watch the competition venue, but went to Kyoto for a trip. After all, there are many traditional cultural relics from the Tang Dynasty preserved here, which is very interesting.

It is a bit ironic to say that although there is a deep hatred between China and Japan, Kyoto is one of the best Asian cities for the traditional Chinese culture. Because of its yearning for Chinese culture, Japan has had the habit of sending "Tang envoys" to the Supreme Kingdom of the Celestial Kingdom since the Tang Dynasty, which has greatly influenced Japanese culture.

As the capital of Japan before 1868, Kyoto preserved a large number of historical sites. These historical sites were successfully applied for World Heritage under the name of the "Ancient Capital Kyoto Cultural Heritage" as early as 1994 and are an important tourist destination in Japan.

Visitors can easily feel the historical changes of Chinese culture in Kyoto, and even many architectural styles that have disappeared in China and cultural antiques can be seen here, which has gained a lot for Xiao Feng.

Since retiring from the NBA, Xiao Feng has focused his life on his family. Professional golf is just a playful nature. Therefore, Xiao Feng often turned his attention to the study of traditional Chinese culture in his spare time.

After all, the "Xiao Family Museum" has become the largest private museum in China, and even the legal representative of the museum. If Xiao Feng knows nothing about Chinese traditional culture, wouldn't that be a joke?

A one-day trip to Kyoto made Xiao Feng feel quite moved. Although many Chinese people gritted their teeth at Japanese people, most Chinese people’s understanding of Japanese people is limited to history books and film and television works, especially the “sacred dramas” in previous years, which made many Chinese people look at Japanese people’s IQ very low.

In fact, as the biggest victim in modern Chinese history, the Japanese nation also has many points, such as a perseverance and learning style, which are worthy of deep thought by Chinese people.

The cultural monuments all over Kyoto fully demonstrate Japan's protection of traditional culture, which is far inferior to China.

In recent years, for economic development and GDP, various parts of China have been building construction, and many historical sites have been replaced by real estate projects. Many traditional techniques have gradually been lost due to lack of protection, and the crystallization of Chinese civilization has disappeared little by little in the long river of history.

This is the tragedy of the development of the times and the crisis of Chinese civilization. Xiao Feng's feelings were not obvious before. This time he came to Kyoto and saw Japan's protection of traditional culture. Compared with the high-rise buildings that kept rising from the ground in China, he was alerted.

Xiao Feng decided that after returning to China after the Tokyo Olympics, the "Ginkgo Foundation" will launch a new project to protect many endangered monuments and lost skills in China so that they can survive better and carry forward!

After all, the Chinese economy is growing today. In addition to material wealth, cultural wealth is also an important part of improving people's quality of life. Since Xiao Feng has this power, he must play a positive role.

…………

After returning from Kyoto, Xiao Feng's family did not come to watch the game that night, but watched the final of the diving event in front of the hotel's TV, and witnessed the Chinese Diving Dream Team once again won two gold medals for a single-player jump in the ten-meter platform.

There are 8 diving events in the Olympic Games, and they have always been the back garden of the China's "Dream Team". It is already a very lucky thing for athletes from other countries to win a gold medal.

This Olympics is no exception. Among the six events that have ended, the Chinese delegation won all gold medals, and even two silver medals were won by Chinese players. Now there is only the men's and women's three-meter board final tomorrow night, and the Chinese delegation has great hope of winning!

In fact, in addition to the diving event, the Chinese delegation also has the strong strength to win all gold medals in another event, that is, the national football team!

At present, the Chinese table tennis team has won the gold medal in men's and women's teams. In the singles event, the two Chinese athletes who played have entered the semi-finals. If you are not careful, you may be able to compete in the finals and win the championship and runner-up!

The glory of the Chinese table tennis team is based on the many reforms and restrictions of the ITTF. The strength of the national ball is already unstoppable for the people on earth!

Due to the schedule, Xiao Feng has never had the chance to watch the diving and table tennis game on site. He decided to watch the finals of these two events in the next two days and appreciate the performance of the Dream Team up close!
