In the women's 10-meter platform diving final of the Paris Olympic Games, Quan Hongchan won the championship with a total score of 425.60 points, once again retaining the Olympic gold medal in this event. After the game, reporters gathered around Quan Hongchan and asked a lot of questions, and from the questions and answers, we saw Quan Hongchan's straightforward and frank character. At the same time, she also showed extremely high emotional intelligence at a young age.
When asked by a reporter if she felt any pressure, Quan Hongchan replied: "I don't have any pressure, because there is her (Chen Yuxi) behind me. Even though I can't dance well, she is still behind me. Just do your own thing well and don’t think about anything else.”
In this project, the Chinese diving team sent two “kings”, Quan Hongchan and Chen Yuxi, just to win the gold and silver medals. Quan Hongchan was the champion of the last 10-meter platform diving, and Chen Yuxi was the runner-up. Four years later, the two are still far ahead in this event. Before the game started, the outside world exaggerated this game into a peak showdown between Quan Hongchan and Chen Yuxi. But in Quan Hongchan's view, although this is a personal battle, the two are still "teammates" and work together to defend the honor of the Chinese team. Moreover, she also trusted and affirmed Chen Yuxi's ability, which made her look both majestic and decent, impeccable!
In the eyes of outsiders, Quan Hongchan is a peerless genius in diving. But in Quan Hongchan's view, "Geniuses are also developed over and over again. This Olympic cycle is very hard, with tears, bitterness, and happy times. In short, it is not easy to get this gold medal."
diving There are only 5 jumps in the final, but behind it are many people who have worked hard for several years. Any sport requires talent, and talent determines height. But it doesn’t mean you don’t work hard or put in less effort because you are talented. Three years ago at the Tokyo Olympics, Quan Hongchan appeared on the scene, shocking the world. But she was only 14 years old at the time, and in the past three years she had to face the changes brought about by her growing body. Techniques, movements and other aspects need to be re-practiced. Little girls like to eat snacks, so Chen Ruolin also needs to be watched closely. All athletes work hard, training day after day, facing the tears of pain and the bitterness of failure. No one can succeed casually.
In addition, Quan Hongchan also showed us her humorous side. When asked: "What you leave to the public, everyone thinks it is happiness. Others are concerned about whether you fly high, but are you actually tired?" Quan Hongchan blurted out: "This question is, Who is not tired? ”
To be honest, this reporter’s question is quite boring. Although there are only 5 jumps in total, the hardship the athletes endure behind the scenes is beyond imagination. After the game, Quan Hongchan burst into tears while hugging coach Chen Ruolin's shoulders. She said: "I am very happy. It has been very hard in the past three years. It is not easy to win this gold medal. I can't hold it back. I am very happy now. The hard work in the middle is all worth it, just for this moment!"
And the most amazing question was when the reporter asked her: "Which gold medal is more important between the last Olympics and this Olympics?" Quan Hongchan replied: "I think I might be a little short in the last Olympics, I just feel The gold medal is too heavy. I don’t think it is that heavy this time. In the last year, I had to hold the gold medal all the time, otherwise my stomach would hurt when I walked. I don’t need it now, and I have grown taller again. Chan's answer made people laugh, and it probably also made the reporter who asked the question quite boring! Of course Quan Hongchan knew what the reporter meant by "heavy weight", but she cleverly changed the concept and answered with "weight". For Quan Hongchan, these two gold medals have different meanings. Tokyo won it for the first time and Paris won it for the defending title. However, the weight cannot be compared. They are both honors won for the country. There is no saying that they are heavier or lighter.

", "She is very wise and foolish", "Her emotional intelligence is really high", "Quan Hongchan's answer is in another dimension", "This answer is humorous and can be called a classic! "...
