There are still three days to go before the opening of the Tokyo Olympics, and the China News Service Tokyo Olympics reporting team has started work for nearly 48 hours.
How did they feel at the initial stage of reporting on this special Olympics?
What are your expectations for your trip to Tokyo?
What "secret weapon" did you bring to ensure the smooth progress of the report?
Let's take a look with Xiaoxin, Go!
Go!
Go!
Bian Liqun
The first time a literary reporter reports on the Olympics
First impression of the Olympics
The first impression was "four rice balls".
On the morning of the first day, I went to the media center for nucleic acid testing, received Olympic backpacks, travel tickets and other necessary procedures. Before lunch, I went to Tokyo Narita Airport to meet the Chinese women's volleyball, women's basketball, diving and other domestic teams.
Before the interview, I took the time to buy two rice balls at a convenience store, ran to a ventilated place outside the terminal, took off my mask, and finally ate the first meal of the day at 4 in the evening.
After 6 hours of pick-up and interview, the on-site interview was over. Because I could not take public transportation in the first 14 days, I called the taxi company to dispatch a car and learned that I would have to wait at least 50 minutes.
Taking advantage of this time, I went to the convenience store and bought two rice balls.
If it is my first experience and first impression of reporting on the Olympics site, these four rice balls supporting a busy day at work will definitely be my eternal memory.

What to expect from a trip to Tokyo
I hope to witness the Chinese weightlifting team breaking through 6 golds and making history in my main report. At the same time, I hope that the Chinese women's football girls who are far away in Miyagi can perform miracles on the basis of qualifying in the group.
I hope that my report can meet the needs of readers to understand the Olympics and allow readers to see a different Olympics.
What "secret weapon" did you bring to Tokyo
Because I needed to conduct interviews at intervals of more than two meters, I brought a selfie stick, tape and voice recorder, but found that the length of the selfie stick is still not enough...
Du Yang
Photojournalist covering the Olympics for the third time
First impression of the Olympics
After I came to Tokyo, I started with daily nucleic acid tests, and then I got familiar with the working environment of the media center and the routes to various venues.
Studying the schedule, studying the departure time of the media shuttle, including how it runs, are all things we need to do within 24 hours of arriving in Tokyo.
For the Tokyo Olympics, reporters need to make an appointment to go to the venues for interviews, and all games need to make an appointment. This is also something I haven't encountered in the shooting of the Olympics.
Du Yang
What to expect from a trip to Tokyo
I hope that our appointment will be successful this time, and we can take more wonderful moments of the Chinese team.
What "secret weapon" did you bring to Tokyo
In this part of the equipment, there is no secret weapon that can be said, because the equipment is more conventional sports photography equipment.
The only special thing is that this year’s Olympic Games are on equipment, and many reporters will use miniature SLR cameras to shoot.
Tomita
Photojournalists cover the Olympics for the fourth time
First impression of the Olympics
The first impression is the impact of the epidemic, which has changed everything.
Nucleic acid is required for entry, there are no spectators for the event, appointments are required for interviews, and isolation is required when returning to China.
Tomita
What to expect from a trip to Tokyo
The expectation is to be able to be physically safe and not to be recruited.
What "secret weapon" did you bring to Tokyo
The secret weapon is the gas mask, the one worn by Turi.
(I will wear it all the time during my stay in Tokyo.
Han Haidan
Photojournalists cover the Olympics for the first time
First impression of the Olympics
On the first day of work, I went to the airport to pick up the plane. The athletes all wore masks and face masks. It was very difficult to tell who was who from the crowd walking out.
Even if he recognizes it, most of the interactions with fans or the media are nods, so I look forward to the smiling faces of athletes cheering and celebrating in the arena.
Han Haidan
What to expect from a trip to Tokyo
The most certain thing about this Olympics is that it is full of uncertainty.
I look forward to all the scheduled sessions being successful, and I look forward to the good results of the Chinese athletes in the filming sessions.
What "secret weapon" did you bring to Tokyo
Half a box of masks and lighter photographic equipment.
Song Fangcan
The text reporter reported the Olympic Games for the fifth time
First impression of the Olympics
Compared with previous cities such as Beijing, Japan really lacks Olympic atmosphere, and it is rare to see Olympic flags and related elements along the way.
This is my fifth time to interview the Olympic Games on site, and also the first time I have come to Japan. Only when I arrived, I discovered that the accommodation conditions in Japan are really...
It’s okay to eat. Today, I posted a Weibo of #今日中午吃什么#. Seven hundred to eight hundred thousand people read it and thousands of people interacted with me.
Everyone rushed to say that Xiaoxin, I ate too poorly. They were afraid that I would be hungry, so they would send me instant noodle snacks and mustard...
Song Fangcan
What to expect from a trip to Tokyo
Before coming to Tokyo, I joked with my colleagues, saying that "safety is the first, friendship is the second, and the competition is the third."
Although there are not many big names in the Chinese delegation, I still have some expectations for the results. After all, everyone has worked harder than any Olympic Games for a year, right?
The main item of my previous interview was shooting. The Chinese have the first gold complex. Generally, if the first gold is won, the pressure behind the delegation will be less and the results will be better.
In order to make myself less disappointed, I made a bet with my colleague: If the Chinese team wins the first shot, I will ask her to eat steak.
I hope it’s me who will eat the steak in the end.
What "secret weapon" did you bring to Tokyo
I had just finished reporting on a battle, and before I had time to rest, I left for Tokyo.
Without any preparation, no secret weapons, all encounters on a narrow road are real swords and spears.
Having experienced the five Olympic Games in person, I am no longer the spiritual guy who was laughed at by the teacher as "a stupid boy who sleeps on a cool kang with firepower".
With two mobile phones, a computer, and anti-epidemic equipment armed to the forehead, I am here!
Wang Zumin
The text reporter reports on the Olympics
First impression of the Olympics
The most intuitive impression is that this is the Olympic venue with the least Olympic atmosphere.
Tokyo, in a state of "emergency", is quiet, empty, and even has some solemn atmosphere, which is completely different from the cheerful and noisy atmosphere of the previous Olympic Games.
Another deep impression is that when it comes to epidemic prevention, the Chinese are the most effective and self-disciplined.
During the two days in Tokyo, the people with the tightest protection and the most cautious travels were basically Chinese.
Sometimes I see those Olympic staff and some foreign colleagues who are quite casual in protection, and I really want to teach them China's experience in epidemic prevention.
Wang Zumin
What to expect from a trip to Tokyo
Now in the official bulletin of the Olympic Organizing Committee, there are still information about the infection of Olympic-related personnel every day, which also makes all participants panic and nervous.
Therefore, my greatest expectation for this Olympics is to proceed safely and smoothly. When the Olympics closes, I hope that the Olympics Xiaoxin and all participants can "retire"-come happily and return in a healthy and healthy manner. .
What "secret weapon" did you bring to Tokyo
This is the ninth time I have participated in the report of the Summer Olympics. From the 1996 Atlanta Olympics to the present, the 7 Olympics are all in the front report group.
My Olympic coverage has exceeded the age of several Olympic Xiaoxins. I don't know if I should be frustrated or proud.
However, the experience of reporting on the 9th Olympic Games and the accumulation of more than 30 years of Chinese sports can be regarded as my "secret weapon".
During the Tokyo Olympics, I will work with my young colleagues and colleagues to bring you more Olympic information and tell you more stories about the Tokyo Olympics.
Wen Mengxin
Video reporters report on the Olympics for the first time
First impression of the Olympics
The surrounding content of the Olympic Games is too rich, and living conditions are better than expected.
As a video reporter, our Olympic interviews are actually subject to many shooting restrictions, and shooting is not allowed on many occasions.
Before we set off, we made a lot of plans, for fear that there would be no good content.
But for two days of work, we have hot searches every day~ The daily shooting schedule is full, and the previous worries are unnecessary!

What to expect from a trip to Tokyo
I look forward to all athletes, coaches, staff, journalists, and overseas Chinese and overseas Chinese students participating in Olympic volunteer work in Japan, all safe and healthy!
What "secret weapon" did you bring to Tokyo
Bring a good appetite, hahaha... Eat well to work well, please look forward to the hungry wolf-style Olympics eating and broadcasting in Xiaowen's wind and raging clouds!
!
Xing Chong
The text reporter reports the Olympics for the second time
First impression of the Olympics
The Olympic Games started for 24 hours. It can be said that we started to work immediately upon arrival. We arrived at the hotel early on the evening of the 19th and took a shuttle bus to the media center at 10 am. The construction started very fast, which reflects our combat effectiveness, hahaha.
For Japan, being in it is not as "terrible" as imagined. Everything is still relatively orderly. The hotel, shuttle station, and media center volunteers are very enthusiastic and patient to solve problems. Their protection is not even stricter than ours. Of course, epidemic prevention still cannot be relaxed. .
Xing Chong
What to expect from a trip to Tokyo
The biggest expectation is that everyone in the reporting team can complete this reporting task safely and smoothly. It is the biggest expectation for everyone to be safe and secure.
What "secret weapon" did you bring to Tokyo
The secret weapon?
I have participated in reports on large-scale events many times before, including many overseas interviews. It can be said that I have been more skilled, and I have a relatively complete range of food and drink, including various drugs.
This is the first time I have participated in the Olympics report. I am looking forward to it and worry about it. The main concern is the safety of epidemic prevention. In short, I feel a little complicated, haha...
Yuechuan
Text reporter covering the Olympics for the third time
First impression of the Olympics
The initial impression should be "wait", because we started from Beijing and stayed in Japan until we finally landed in Japan. It took more than 30 hours to get rid of the jet lag, and most of the time during this process was waiting.
Immediately after we put into the first day of work, we also waited a lot, including the arrival of the Chinese delegation. According to the plan, the 19th was also the day when the Chinese delegation arrived the most in a single day, reaching 14 teams.
Including, for example, the Chinese women's volleyball team, Chinese diving, Chinese shooting, and Chinese weightlifting, so everyone pays more attention to it, because the epidemic prevention will be stricter than usual and the clearance time will be longer.
Yuechuan (middle)
What to expect from a trip to Tokyo
I hope that the Chinese athletes who have paid a lot of sweat in the past five years can get the ending they want.
Maybe it's not just the gold medal, but I hope they can get the rewards for their efforts.
Compared with the previous Olympic cycle, this year’s Olympic cycle is one more year, which means that they need one more year of persistence.
Not only that, they may have to make a lot of difficult decisions and put in more effort to get them to come to Tokyo five years later.
What "secret weapon" did you bring to Tokyo
Japanese hotels are generally small in size, so I brought a lot of foldable daily necessities, such as drying racks, which are more convenient to use.
Zhang Su
Text reporter covering the Olympics for the third time
First impression of the Olympics
I started working for 24 hours and wanted to say, help me up and "come another (draft)".
It turned out suddenly that the game hadn't started yet...
Zhang Su
What to expect from a trip to Tokyo
During my trip to Tokyo, I most look forward to the stability of the epidemic so that I can meet my previous teachers.
What "secret weapon" did you bring to Tokyo
A little raccoon doll that has been with me for 25 years.
It was bought by my father when I came to Japan.
Wish me luck.
Zhao Anyuan
Video reporter covering the Olympics for the second time
First impression of the Olympics
Many tour guides in Japan have joined the volunteer team. Many of them have served Chinese tourists. They are very good at Chinese, and they are very friendly and patient with Chinese reporters.
One of the tour guide sisters said that because of the epidemic, there are fewer tourists, and tour guides don't have much work now.
There is some income from joining volunteers, but compared with the income of tour guides, it is much worse.
But they still joined for the country.
Zhao Anyuan (left)
What to expect from a trip to Tokyo
I look forward to every Chinese athlete who can be proud of the arena.
This expectation stems from a small tidbit-the Chinese women's water polo team has several "laughs" posted on the suitcase.
What "secret weapon" did you bring to Tokyo
The secret weapon is a big Chinese national flag. There are no spectators. It reminds me of Wang Yaping, the race walking Olympic champion of the Sydney Olympics. Legend has it that she couldn't find a national flag after winning the championship.
So before setting off, I brought a national flag.
If you have the opportunity, you can interact with Chinese athletes.
Zhu Chenxi
The first time a literary reporter reports on the Olympics
First impression of the Olympics
The Japanese staff are more patient and polite. A staff member at the airport was supposed to leave work at 3 pm, but after receiving our reception work for this flight, he had not left work by 10 pm, so he still patiently accompanied me. I was very moved by handling nucleic acid testing, activating the Olympic work card, and going through various immigration procedures.
Zhu Chenxi
What to expect from a trip to Tokyo
The expectation is that the Chinese Olympic delegation can win more gold medals, so as not to spread the epidemic, and to successfully complete the Olympic reporting task by itself.
What "secret weapon" did you bring to Tokyo
The secret weapon is all kinds of protective equipment, especially the N95 masks issued by the agency, which makes me feel better.
Xia Yuhua
The head of the China News Service Olympic Reporting Team reports the Olympics for the 11th time
First impression of the Olympics
On the one hand, because of the epidemic prevention, the entire reporting team is severely restricted.
Before the previous Olympic Games, they would visit and train before the games, but this time many venues are not open to reporters for training.
For some games, such as those outside Tokyo, we can't go there. The reports are very affected.
Another feeling is that there are too many uncertainties, including the need to make an appointment in advance for each game to be interviewed. Making an appointment in advance means controlling the number of people and means which games can go or not. It is very uncertain.
还有一种不确定性，就是对运动队、对比赛双方了解的不确定。运动员很久没打国际比赛，自己、对手情况如何，都不是很确定，现在面对比赛的准备的不确定性，在以往的奥运会是没有的。
夏宇华
东京之旅有什么期待
期待两方面，一方面期待奥运会能顺顺利利，平安地完成所有比赛，不要出现外界担心的疫情大流行。毕竟是疫情爆发后最大规模的一次全世界的聚会，希望能成功完成，为世界恢复正常交流进行一次成功的探索。
第二个期待就是中国代表团的表现，期待中国代表团实现预定目标，止住中国体育近几届奥运会成绩连年下滑的趋势，能够在第一序列站稳脚跟。
带了什么“秘密武器”来东京
哈哈，真没有什么秘密武器。半箱子防护用品。
希望前方报道组的同事们注意安全
等你们和中国代表团一起凯旋！
