"It's perfect." Qi Guangpu's father Qi Juntao's joy was beyond words.
Qi Guangpu, who was born in 1990, started practicing freestyle skiing aerial skills at the age of 4, and was selected into the Changchun Freestyle Skiing Aerial Skills Team at the age of 10.
At the age of 23, Qi Guangpu was a blockbuster. At the Freestyle Skiing World Championships, he completed the action of rolling backwards for three weeks and turning 1800 degrees.
Over the years, Qi Guangpu has won numerous awards, including the World Cup champion and the World Championship champion twice.
However, he participated in the three Winter Olympics in Vancouver, Sochi and Pyeongchang, but failed to win a medal.
The family of Qi Guangpu was very excited to realize the dream of Beijing this time.
"He finally realized his dream." His wife Zhao Shanshan said with red eyes.
In the eyes of his family, Qi Guangpu is a sensible child and a responsible husband, who always reports good news to the family and not bad news.
Mother Yang Yunling said reluctantly that some news about her son, she always heard about others before she knew it, and by the time she asked, it was often over.
In preparation for the Beijing Winter Olympics, Qi Guangpu has not returned home for more than a year.
In order to let him prepare for the war with peace of mind, his wife Zhao Shanshan took on all the affairs of the family.
Zhao Shanshan said with a smile that they have a clear division of labor. She has to take care of the family, and he has to train and compete with peace of mind to win glory for the country.
At present, the action of rolling backward three times and turning 1800 degrees is still the first difficulty of freestyle skiing aerial skills.
However, many rising stars are capable of challenging the move.
Zhao Shanshan, a former athlete, believes that Qi Guangpu's biggest opponent is himself.
"He played very well in today's game, especially the last jump was perfect." Zhao Shanshan said, hoping that he can maintain his state and give everyone a wonderful performance in the next individual competition.
