"Even though we only won one gold medal in this competition, we actually won a lot of medals and we skated really well in the singles event. Liu Shaoang, who won the gold medal in the men's 1000m, said, "I hope we can continue to work hard in the future and strive for better results." ”

The relay event not only pays attention to individual strength, but also pays attention to team cooperation, and the Chinese team's performance in this station is not tacit enough, and there are falls in both men's and women's events.

We had some small mistakes and some regrets in the relay, but our momentum and strength have been shown. In our project, it is normal to have regrets, and mistakes also remind us to try to avoid this situation in the next competition. Ren Ziwei said.

There are a lot of good players in the team now, and I have learned a lot as a young athlete. Sun Long said.

The 30-year-old Fan Kexin is more composed: "Short track speed skating is not just a competition between Asian athletes, athletes from all over the world are capable of competing for medals, and the quarterfinals are already very difficult to compare. I see that the women's team has gone from last year's poor results in the tournament to now that everyone is gradually reaching the finals, which is a very big improvement. I hope to bring everyone together and I will do my best to help everyone. ”

Next week, the fourth leg of the World Cup will be held in Seoul, South Korea. Ren Ziwei said, "I hope to play more actively than this one and strive for better results." ”
