Before the opening ceremony, Bach found him...
At the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics, IOC President Bach's speech inspired ice and snow athletes around the world.
What people don't know is that before the opening ceremony, Bach also needs to "lift up". He specially found a Chinese hair stylist and made a capable hairstyle...
From January this year to the present, hair stylist Zhu Youcheng and his team of 12 people have been stationed in the Winter Olympic Villages in Beijing, Yanqing and Zhangjiakou, and are responsible for the hair and nails of the athletes.
Two days before the opening ceremony, Bach came to Zhu Youcheng's store. In order to attend this event, Bach hoped that the hair stylist would give him a more refreshing hairstyle.
After 40 minutes, Bach was so satisfied with his hairstyle that he even said he would do it again before the closing ceremony.
On February 10, a reporter from Chengdu Business Daily-Red Star News conducted an exclusive interview with this netizen's "Best Teacher Tony in the Winter Olympics", listening to him tell interesting stories in the Winter Olympics Village.
Bach's first hairstylist in China 'a little nervous'
As the most important multi-sport event in the world, the Olympic Games have a long period, so the organizing committee needs to provide various life services to the athletes living in the Olympic Village, including hairdressing.
Since entering the Winter Olympic Village of the Beijing Winter Olympics, Zhu Youcheng has been busy from 9 am to 9 pm every day.
When the opening ceremony was about to begin, the arrival of a heavyweight guest made Zhu Youcheng extremely excited.
This guest is Bach. As the president of the International Olympic Committee, he will speak at the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics.
In order to attend this important occasion, Bach specially came to Zhu Youcheng for a haircut.
"Mr. Samaranch Jr. (the vice-president of the International Olympic Committee and the chairman of the Beijing Winter Olympics Coordination Committee of the International Olympic Committee) came here before. I don't know if he recommended me to Mr. Bach, and Mr. Bach also told me that this was It was the first time he had a haircut in China," Zhu Youcheng said.
At that time, Zhu Youcheng went into battle in person. Although he was a little nervous, he was still very confident in his professionalism.
I felt Bach's skull with my hand, and then decided where to keep it longer and where to keep it shorter. "Although it's not difficult, there should be no less places to cut, and no more places to leave." The process of cutting hair In the middle of the book, Zhu Youcheng habitually took a mirror and looked behind him, but Bach said, "Don't look at it, I believe you."
What Zhu Youcheng didn't expect was that Bach had only one requirement for hairstyle - natural.
He said, "I'm at my age, and I don't want to put too much on my hair." After about 40 minutes of trimming, Zhu Youcheng finally breathed a sigh of relief. Bach was very satisfied with this hairstyle and praised him as a "real artist" .
Afterwards, Bach was very happy to take a photo with Zhu Youcheng and the staff in the store. His entourage also gave Zhu Youcheng a big surprise, "It's a scarf with the symbol of the Olympic rings."
Before leaving, Bach said that he would do it again before the closing ceremony, and gave some badges to the staff in the store.
Talking about this experience, Zhu Youcheng still feels incredible, "Mr. Bach is very kind and gentle, and we are all conquered by his charisma."
Zhu Youcheng said that he cuts the hair of more than 10 athletes every day, so he has met many athletes from various delegations, and even added WeChat to some athletes and became friends.
Among them, the Norwegian "post-00" freestyle skiing men's big platform gold medalist Birke Ruder also had a nail polish.
In addition, after the brothers Liu Shaolin and Liu Shaoang from the Hungarian team finished their hairstyles, they also took photos and recorded videos with Zhu Youcheng to call his brand.
Since the Beijing competition area where he is located mainly focuses on ice sports, Zhu Youcheng has seen the most ice hockey players.
He has done hairstyles here including Chinese ice hockey team members Ying Rudi, Wang Mengying, Yuan Junjie and others, and many athletes also added Zhu Youcheng's WeChat.
A German athlete even gave Zhu Youcheng a tip of 150 yuan after finishing his work, and praised him as "the best hair stylist I have ever encountered".
Short videos of daily work are posted online
Fans are growing like crazy
Since entering the Winter Olympic Village, Zhu Youcheng and his colleagues will post short videos of daily work shooting and editing on social media, "I have never been exposed to short videos before, but considering that if you don't make short videos during the Winter Olympics, then It's a pity that this traffic is gone, because we are the only group of 'Tony' in the country serving athletes in a closed loop." In recording these videos, in addition to promoting them, Zhu Youcheng also had a selfish intention, "My son is 8 years old, and I'm going to post these videos. I edited it and gave him a gift when I got home. I called him yesterday and he said that my father wants to learn design in the future, which makes me very proud.”
Due to the high attention of the Beijing Winter Olympics, the athletes are all in the closed loop, and the outside world is very curious about the lives of the athletes.
Therefore, since the short video, Zhu Youcheng's fans have grown wildly, and many fans have left messages to him, "Will athletes be allowed to apply for cards? Do you need to be washed?" Zhu Youcheng will take time to reply to these questions.
He said it was absolutely impossible to get a card, and he was very proud to see the athletes he served on the Olympic stage.
"Beijing has become the world's first 'Double Olympic City'. Through the platform of the Beijing Winter Olympics, I can get to know these athletes from all over the world. This experience is destined to be unforgettable for me." Zhu Youcheng said.
