However, as the news of Chen Yuxi's victory spread quickly, an unexpected situation made this festive moment instantly embarrassing. What's going on?
Let's unravel this mystery together.
In the 2024 Diving World Cup, the "Dream Team" lived up to expectations and won all the gold medals, becoming the pride of China!
The outstanding performance of Quan Hongchan and Chen Yuxi was impressive, and the fans were even full. The two sisters are not only rivals, but also close friends, so they are in the spotlight at the competition.
In this diving World Cup, their sisters have become the center of attention.
On March 4, Quan Hongchan and Chen Yuxi had a fierce duel in the 10-meter platform competition. In the first three jumps, Chen Yuxi always maintained a leading position with excellent results by virtue of his stable performance.
In contrast, Quan Hongchan's performance was not as expected, and her ranking even fell to third at one point. However, in the fourth jump, Quan Hongchan's performance gradually stabilized, but the score was still about ten points different from Chen Yuxi.
This is because Chen Yuxi's performance in the fourth jump is still excellent and consistent, and her overall score is still first, far ahead of the other competitors.
Chen Yuxi showed excellent strength in the final fifth jump, and the five jumps performed flawlessly, and finally succeeded in winning the championship.
Although Quan Hongchan performed exceptionally in the last jump, it is a pity that there is still a gap of about four points between her results and Chen Yuxi, and she can only be relegated to the runner-up in the end.
Despite this, Quan Hongchan's performance is also commendable. In short, whether it is Chen Yuxi or Quan Hongchan, their double 10-meter platform has shown strong strength and has become the champion of the competition.
In the game, they are like "bombs", and they can create amazing performances when they go to the **, leaving the opponent powerless.
Their double jump showed extraordinary strength from the start, reaching the highest score in all five jumps, and finally finished with 368With a score of 82 points, he won the championship with a score of 67 ahead of the second-place British pairThat's 68 points!
What's more worth mentioning is that Chen Yuxi won a total of three gold medals in this Diving World Cup, including the championship of the mixed team competition, becoming the triple crown winner of this Diving World Cup.
Such achievements are amazing, netizens have praised the strength of these two little girls, and Chen Yuxi's excellence is worthy of the name, it is the real triple crown!
Chen Yuxi spoke in English in a post-match interview, which was a surprise. Although her triple crown result was gratifying, speaking in English disappointed netizens.
Chen Yuxi, a three-time champion in a row, attracted the most attention in this diving World Cup, and became the subject of interviews with many reporters after the game.
As a champion, it's normal to be interviewed, and Chen Yuxi is also very happy to share her experience and gratitude.
However, it is worth mentioning that her speech was not in Chinese, but in English. Despite the slight differences in language, it didn't affect her gratitude to her coaches, teammates and fans.
Chen Yuxi's English speech sparked heated discussions among domestic netizens, and many people wondered why she didn't speak in Chinese, did she not know Chinese?
Some netizens insist that Chinese should be spoken in international occasions, and as a representative of China, Chinese can better show the national image.
Just as at every diplomatic conference, our diplomats speak in Chinese, although they also speak English, but in such occasions, Chinese is more appropriate.
In global competitions, speaking Chinese is no longer just a way to express fluency in the native language, it also represents the identity of Chinese and the power of China.
As a Chinese champion, Chen Yuxi should answer reporters' questions in Chinese during the interview to show the strength of her and her motherland.
What makes people laugh is that Zhang Zhihe, who once attracted much attention in the table tennis world, decided to become a Japanese citizen in 2014, which attracted a burst of scolding from netizens.
Ironically, his parents were originally Chinese table tennis players, and in order to give their children more opportunities, they resolutely took him to Japan and changed his Japanese name to Tomokazu Zhangmoto.
This is outrageous. However, Tomokazu Haramoto did not resist and chose to play for Japan instead. During the interview, he was able to express his thoughts fluently in Japanese.
However, after the Chinese reporter asked a question, he immediately answered in Chinese, but after realizing his mistake, he immediately re-answered in Japanese. Surprisingly, there was also a Chinese translator next to him.
Although Chen Yuxi is Chinese, she spoke in English during the interview, which led to doubts from some netizens.
In contrast to her, Tomokazu Haramoto, also from Japan, always speaks in Japanese during interviews.
This may be because Tomokazu Haramoto knows that, as a Japanese, he needs to maintain his country and culture at all times.
Although Chen Yuxi has won three gold medals, will speaking in a foreign language cause misunderstanding for others? Maybe she should think more about her identity and nationality.
The anger of netizens is understandable, but it is a bit excessive to put Chen Yuxi on the platform in English, thinking that she is admiring foreign and flattering.
After all, this is just Chen Yuxi's personal expression, and it has not had an impact on other players.
Moreover, Chen Yuxi's speech in English does not represent the problem of the entire diving team.
We should look at this situation rationally and not jump to conclusions. In addition, modern society is pluralistic and culturally inclusive, and we cannot measure a person in Chinese and English alone.
Chen Yuxi's speech in English is just her personal expression, and we should give her understanding and support.
There is nothing wrong with Chen Yuxi speaking in English, because many athletes will answer questions in English, and English is the international lingua franca and is used in many countries.
If the reporter interviewing her is a foreigner, then answering questions in English is also out of respect.
Netizens may be dissatisfied because Chen Yuxi speaks English, thinking that as a Chinese, you should only speak Chinese, otherwise there will be problems. But is that really the right idea?
There is no rule that speaking Chinese is the proper performance of Chinese. Although everyone is patriotic, so they are dissatisfied with Chen Yuxi's English, but if you only focus on this point, or even enlarge it for discussion, it is a little inappropriate.
As athletes of the Chinese national team, they know better than us the country's collective sense of honor and pride, their victory is the country's victory, they can feel this pride and pride, and they will continue to work hard for the motherland.
In this competition, Chen Yuxi won glory for the country with three gold medals, isn't it our pride? If she is not Chinese and does not love her country, then why will she not release water in the competition?
Is it because you're afraid that others will see it? Believing in her superb skills, it is difficult to find even if she releases water. However, Chen Yuxi did not choose to release the water, and her every jump was very good, and the highest score in the field was enough to prove her determination.
In the face of such a good player, we should not criticize her for speaking in English, on the contrary, we can encourage her to speak in Chinese.
We should treat every athlete with a rational and peaceful attitude, which is our responsibility and obligation.
As Chinese, safeguarding the honor of the motherland is our common belief. Our athletes deserve our praise for fighting the field for national honor.
To treat Chen Yuxi, we should treat her with a gentler and more rational attitude. As for using Chinese or English, in fact, both ways are possible.
