Say goodbye to "strong ice and weak snow" and expand areas of advantage
Previously, China's Winter Olympics projects were not only in a relatively backward position as a whole, but also had serious unbalanced development.
In the previous 11 Winter Olympics, the Chinese team won a total of 13 gold medals, 12 of which came from ice events, and only 1 gold medal in snow events (freestyle skiing men's aerial skills).
However, the situation of "strong ice and weak snow" has been completely changed this time.
Of the 9 gold medals won by the Chinese delegation, 5 came from snow events, even more than those won on ice.
Short track speed skating, figure skating pair skating, and freestyle skiing aerial skills are the "oldest three" in the previous Chinese Winter Olympics.
In this Winter Olympics, the dominant position of the Chinese team in these projects has been consolidated.
Short track speed skating won 2 golds, 1 silver and 1 bronze, the same number of gold medals as South Korea and the Netherlands. Because of one less medal, it ranked second among all participating teams after South Korea.
Sui Wenjing/Han Cong took home their gold medals in Beijing after finishing runners-up by 0.43 points at the last Winter Olympics.
The aerial skills team showed the quality of the "dream team" and won the men's and women's single gold medal and the mixed team silver medal.
What is even more gratifying is that the Chinese army "developed" a new "sphere of influence" at this Winter Olympics.
The Chinese team has qualified for the Olympic Games for the first time in the men's and women's big platform jumping and slope obstacle skills in snowboarding. Su Yiming, who has won 1 gold and 1 silver in the men's event, just celebrated his 18th birthday, and may be able to create a new one in his field in the next few years. era.

Due to the joining of the mixed-race girl Gu Ailing, the Chinese team's advantage in freestyle skiing has been greatly expanded.
Especially in the U-shaped field skills, in addition to Gu Ailing winning the gold medal, the other two Chinese "post-00s" Li Fanghui and Zhang Kexin ranked fifth and seventh respectively, showing the strong overall strength of the Chinese team in this event.
China only established the steel frame snow team in 2015, but in the World Cup this season, Geng Wenqiang won the gold medal for the Chinese team.
At this Winter Olympics, Yan Wengang achieved a breakthrough of zero Winter Olympic medals for the Chinese Steel Frame Snow Team.
The veteran sword is not old and the new star comes from behind
In this Winter Olympics, many veterans have become the "treasures of the Chinese team".

In the women's snowboard U-shaped field skills competition, Cai Xuetong and Liu Jiayu, who are also veterans of the four dynasties, won the fourth and eighth place respectively. Although they missed the medal, they still showed their strong strength in this event.
Short track speed skating star Wu Dajing, who participated in the Winter Olympics for the third time, was unable to defend his title in the men's 500m, but won the mixed team gold medal, which is already the pinnacle of the Chinese men's speed skating team.
The persistence of these veterans has helped the Chinese team to maintain a strong position in some projects, and the rise of a group of teenagers shows the bright prospects for the future development of the Chinese Winter Olympics.
In this Winter Olympics, young players have already provoked the lead.
Gu Ailing and Su Yiming, the leaders of the new generation of this Winter Olympics, jointly contributed 3 golds and 2 silvers.

These new faces of the Winter Olympics will be the main force of the Chinese army in the future ice and snow sports.
At this Winter Olympics, the Chinese delegation has achieved a leap-forward improvement in sports performance, but its greater achievement is that in the seven years since the successful bid for the Beijing Winter Olympics, the territory of the Chinese Winter Olympics has become increasingly complete, and the layout of ice and snow has gradually improved. , the rising new forces and the increasingly strong social atmosphere, a beautiful blueprint that integrates China's Winter Olympics and ice and snow sports is slowly being presented through this Winter Olympics.
