  In the semi-final of the day, Chinese teenager Li Wenlong collided with other players, causing him to fall on the ice.

He said that his mind went blank after the fall, and his first thought was to hand over to "Brother Elephant" Ren Ziwei.

As a player participating in the Winter Olympics for the first time, Li Wenlong has performed quite well and won a silver medal in the 1000m final.

  Ren Ziwei said that everyone needs to communicate more in the relay competition. Before going on the field, he also exchanged experience with Li Wenlong.

"Everyone must fight in the finals, and they can't give up their positions because of various concerns." (End)
