[Explanation] In the Olympic cycle from Rio to Tokyo, five years, for track cyclist Zhong Angel, this is the most difficult stage of his career.
Although the process was difficult, it ushered in a satisfactory result.
On August 2, at the Tokyo Olympics, Angel Bell wearing a phoenix helmet and Bao Shanju partnered to win the gold medal in the women's track cycling race.
From wearing a Mulan helmet at the Rio Olympics to today's fire phoenix helmet, Angel Zhong hopes to convey beautiful meaning in this way.

Now the whole world is affected by the epidemic, including us because the Olympic Games are postponed because of the epidemic, and the entire preparation for the war will also be affected.
So I think I also want to use such an implied meaning that the epidemic situation in the world can slowly get better, and I also want to make the whole world have a whole new big change through "Phoenix Nirvana and Rebirth from Fire".
[Explanation] The beautiful meaning of "Phoenix Nirvana" is not only a blessing to the world under the epidemic, but also an encouragement for oneself to fight in Tokyo.
In the Tokyo cycle after Rio, Zhong Angel ushered in the most difficult stage of her career. In this cycle, she suffered three back injuries and two knee injuries.
In such a difficult situation, Zhong Tianzhi never left every high-intensity training session.

Like a high-intensity training class, it is very tormenting. It can be said that after each class, you may not get off the car after each training. It is difficult for you to get off in the car by yourself. You need someone to help you to get out of the car. .
Then after getting off the car, you can’t walk or ride a bicycle. At that time, you can only say that you are lying on the ground. .
[Explanation] Injuries are the biggest natural enemy of athletes.
Angel Zhong said that when she suffered an injury, the help of the National Cycling Team and the support of her relatives and friends gave her the motivation to keep going, and also allowed her to gradually get back to the best competitive state.

My family and friends actually support me silently behind the scenes. They know that I have worked hard and have given me a lot, but they feel that what they can give me at home is support and encouragement.
They can't do something very practical, but I can feel that with every phone call and every video, they are always concerned about me.
[Explanation] "Young player" Bao Shanju, who won the championship with Angel Bell, is going to Tokyo for the first time in the Olympics.
Zhong Tianshi's positive training attitude and tenacious will also have a great influence on her.

Angel sister's usual training attitude (positive), sometimes when there is a very powerful person by your side, you have a goal, and you will stare at her to look at her.
Normal training is also true. If there are some very tiring trainings, I will look at Sister Angel. Sister Angel does so well. Then I should follow her (to keep pace). I can't say that I do exactly the same as her. At least I have to learn from her. I usually have learning goals when I train.
[Explanation] Regarding the future, Angel Zhong said that he has no clear plan yet, and is now preparing for the National Games with all his heart and soul.
She also admitted that she has "rooted" in the bicycle project for more than ten years, and no matter what she does in the future, it is difficult to leave the bicycle project.
