Beijing time on August 15, the women's table tennis team semi-finals of the Rio Olympic Games were held between the Chinese team and Singapore. This was a peak showdown between "made in china" players. In the end, the Chinese team defeated the Singapore team 3-0, approaching the women's table tennis team final.
We all know that Feng Tianwei, a well-known Singaporean player, was a player of the former Chinese National Second Team. For various reasons, he had to leave his hometown and finally found his place in Singapore. In fact, this process still sounds very sad. Feng Tianwei was born in Harbin, China, and has shown a high talent for table tennis since she was a child. Feng Tianwei's father died when he was 16 years old. Soon after, she was diagnosed with myocarditis and missed her chances with the national team. She was very shocked in her heart, and her body did not allow herself to undergo intensive training. She had no choice but to go to Japan to play. Going to Japan almost meant that Feng Tianwei had bid farewell to the highest stage of the world table tennis. After going to Japan to play for two years, she met her own Bole, Liu Guodong, Liu Guoliang's brother. Feng Tianwei became a Singaporean citizen in 2007 and represented Singapore in the table tennis competition.
Feng Tianwei, Zhou Yihan, and Yu Mengyu, who played for Singapore on behalf of Singapore, are all Chinese table tennis players. Under the attraction of Singapore’s sports power strategy, they eventually joined Singapore. The treatment of these naturalized players is very good, except for Singapore. In addition to the house purchase discount provided by the government, income is guaranteed. Feng Tianwei won a bronze medal for Singapore at the London Olympics. Feng Tianwei won a bonus of SGD 375,000, equivalent to RMB 1.85 million. The commercial endorsement is also quite generous. After retirement, Singapore provides excellent jobs and benefits. In addition to enjoying great preferences on house purchases, Singapore’s immigration policy also has preferential policies, and family members can also obtain permanent resident status at the same time. This applies to every Singaporean. Feng Tianwei, Gao Ning and other team members have now settled in Singapore, which shows that Singapore's naturalization policy is not unattractive.
Singapore’s policies have indeed achieved good results. Especially at the 2010 World Table Tennis Championships, the Singapore Women’s Team led by Feng Tianwei defeated the Chinese team in the finals and won the championship of the World Table Tennis Championships, as well as individual individual events. To make a breakthrough, their goal is to train the best table tennis players. The heroes do not ask where they come from. As long as they can achieve good results, whether they are local or naturalized, they are Singapore's pride.
In fact, from the perspective of us Chinese, we don’t have to analyze this problem from the perspective of patriotism or patriotism. Everyone has the right to choose their own life after birth. Everyone’s life experience is not easy. Dreamers can’t realize their sports dreams. It’s a good idea to pursue their dreams from another angle. When they are "made in china" going abroad to compete in the arena, please give them applause. This is applause for those who dream.
