On the afternoon of February 5, the shared space on the first floor of the Beijing Book Building was crowded with ice fans.

Sui Wenjing, a famous Chinese pair skater and champion of the Beijing Winter Olympics, signed and released her new book "More than Wenjing" here.

Just as the title of the book "More Than Quiet" implies, one year has passed since the peak of the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, and the "Number One" who used to show her toughness and vigor in the pair skating arena is starting to open a new era filled with infinite possibilities. A new chapter in life is possible.

　　Speaking of the book "More than Wen Jing", Sui Wenjing's friend and two-time Olympic women's taekwondo champion Wu Jingyu revealed a detail, "It was when Wen Jing and I were sitting on a bus when we participated in an event last year. I saw her It's strange to be typing while sitting in the car. I only found out after asking that she is writing a book." Wu Jingyu admired Sui Wenjing's earnestness.

　　It was only after reading the book "More than Wenjing" that Wu Jingyu knew what kind of injuries and pains Sui Wenjing had suffered.

Surgery on both feet almost foreshadowed the ruin of a figure skater's career, but Sui Wenjing stubbornly overcame the pain.

Wu Jingyu said, "In the eyes of outsiders, Wen Jing is a girl who always smiles and gives people happiness and warmth, like a 'warm baby'. But few people know the hardships and setbacks she has experienced."

　　These experiences of Sui Wenjing finally made her dream come true on the field.

Some of these experiences have been disclosed by the media, but there are many others that only Sui Wenjing, who has personally experienced them, can explain clearly.

Sui Wenjing hopes to write these experiences into the book, not only to write to all those who care about her, but also to say something to her future.

　　The 19-year skating career and the various trials in the pursuit of the Olympic dream have created a Sui Wenjing who can face all difficulties and challenges.

This is her background as an athlete and the source of confidence that she can enter the second half of her life calmly.

　　At the new book release ceremony on February 5, Sui Wenjing shared with ice fans a moment that she will never forget before the Beijing Winter Olympics: that was the day before the opening of the Beijing Winter Olympics. Peng Cheng, a good friend who was also preparing for the Beijing Winter Olympics, met in a restaurant. This very ordinary scene had a dramatic scene on that day—Sui Wenjing and Peng Cheng put down their dinner plates at the same time, and hugged each other tightly. However, everyone in the restaurant may not be able to understand the actions of the two athletes. Only the athletes who are under tremendous pressure before the competition know the meaning of this hug.

Sui Wenjing recalled that because the pair skating event had strict restrictions on the weight of female athletes, she weighed only 70 kilograms at the time, and Peng Cheng weighed more than 80 kilograms. It can be said that they were all skinny.

When the two hugged each other, they were hurt by each other's ribs, but they both felt great power from each other, and this power inspired them to bravely meet the challenge.

　　This kind of power will also affect Sui Wenjing's life. She originally thought that it was impossible for her to write a book, because writing a book is a job for a professional writer, but she completed the new book in half a year.

And she can do more.

　　Influenced by many years of figure skating, Sui Wenjing has a strong interest in dance and art.

A scene in life can also be transformed into an artistic idea in Sui Wenjing's mind.

She said that she had such an inspiration when she opened the glasses case not long ago.

"That day, when I opened my grandma's glasses case, I suddenly felt that only three lenses could be used to make a very good dance image - a pair of wrinkled hands to open a glasses case; a pair of children's hands to open the glasses case; a pair of Young, slender hands opening the glasses case; and parents' hands, probably with different professional characteristics, opening the glasses case. Then, there is a shot of everyone putting on glasses: the old man puts on reading glasses, the child puts on It may be toy glasses in the shape of stars. The young people wear decorative glasses or sunglasses, and the parents wear short-sighted glasses or ordinary glasses. The third shot is everyone's smile after wearing glasses. The three shots are combined in Together, we can show the warmth of a big family of three generations."

　　Sui Wenjing said that when she was studying at Beijing Dance Academy, the teachers often said that everyone should open up their sensitivity. She thinks she is a person with high sensitivity, "I like to try new things, they will give me different stimulation. , has brought me a lot of inspiration."

This also makes her very confident in her future attempts in the field of dance and art.

　　Sui Wenjing is still working as a program director for the young players of the Qiqihar figure skating team. She spends up to 9 hours a day on the ice, and then she has to guide the young players on land, and she has to do a few hours of desk work when she returns home at night.

Sui Wenjing said that she arranged 10 programs in 10 days.

Although life after leaving the arena is not at all easier than when she was an athlete, Sui Wenjing enjoys it.

　　When it comes to the program director of figure skating, Sui Wenjing has another idea, which is to reflect as much Chinese style as possible in the programs of Chinese athletes.

Sui Wenjing said that the first program she composed featured Dunhuang water sleeves. In order to arrange this program, she practiced water sleeve swinging at home. "A sleeve is swinging hundreds or thousands of times a day," Sui Wenjing said with a smile, "My sister Tell me, I wiped all the floors in the house."

　　Sui Wenjing discovered that the elements of traditional Chinese culture can be reflected in many places. She showed reporters a brooch shaped like a butterfly, and then explained, "Actually, this is a hairpin."

　　Sui Wenjing believes that "figure skating performances have the special ability to tell stories, and China's five thousand years of traditional culture should be better displayed to the world through figure skating programs." She said, "I am also thinking, Why in the figure skating programs we have seen so far, the clips that embody the Chinese style have not actually shown some core things of the charm of Chinese classical dance. I think we have actually shown more connotations, but how to use it? , we need figure skating choreographers to have more ideas and creativity, after all, figure skaters are different from dancers.”

　　Looking back at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, it was already a year ago, and the flowers and applause gradually faded away.

As athletes, Sui Wenjing and her partner Han Cong have achieved the highest goal that athletes can pursue. Next, she can use her own programming to reach the top of the Olympics again in another way.

　　Looking to the future, Sui Wenjing said that her life is not limited to being an Olympic champion, just as she wrote in the preface of "More Than Quiet", "The ice skates make a 'stabbing' sound, and the lines of marks on the ice draw extraordinary I thought, isn’t this just like life? Imprints are embedded in the ice, and which direction I choose to go will leave a dent in that direction. And the length and direction of the traces are up to me. Like the rest of my life, it's up to me to decide."
