Wonderful experience of the rare scene of the 2022 Paralympic Winter Games1On the evening of March 4th, the opening ceremony of the Beijing Paralympic Winter Games, which attracted worldwide attention, was successfully held, but the details of lighting the main torch were kept secret from media reporters until the ceremony began. Until the last moment, Li Duan, a China athlete holding the torch high, walked to the center of the snowflake and lit the main torch. As Chen Shen, director of the opening ceremony, said, "We invited a blind man to light the fire in the boldest way. So far, in the Paralympics and Winter Paralympics that I know, there is no precedent for blind people to ignite. "
What is even more touching is the episode on the night of the ceremony-due to the inevitable visual impairment, Li Duan let the torch miss the spot many times during the process of lighting the main torch. However, after a short silence, the audience suddenly burst into warm applause. The audience began to cheer for him spontaneously. This warm and inspirational scene made the classic picture at the opening ceremony. In the loud "refueling" sound, Li Duan firmly embedded in the torch, and the torch of the Beijing Winter Paralympic Games was successfully lit and burned! Recalling all this, Li Duan said: "I have confidence and determination to complete this task."
Li Duan, 1978 was born in the northeast. He has a good talent for basketball and was selected for the national youth men's basketball team twice. However, while preparing for the CBA league match from 1996 to 1997, Li Duan was unfortunately blinded by an accident. When suffering struck, he once gave up decadence, but he quickly got up from the darkness and embarked on a new stage of life. Although he bid farewell to basketball, he began to learn Braille and blind massage, and soon mastered the basic knowledge of Braille and sports rehabilitation skills. Since then, with the recommendation and help of disabled persons' federations at all levels, he has resumed his sports career. Considering that I am a professional basketball player with good bounce and long lower limbs, I finally decided to take triple jump as the main event.
"To practice long jump, you must run straight and be accurate. If you step on the take-off area, you will be fouled. If you step on the take-off area, you won't enter it. If you are crooked, you won't jump into the bunker. " When it comes to triple jump, Li Duan feels like the torch lighting at the opening ceremony, which requires both accuracy and boldness. It was inspired by this spirit that Li Duan won four gold medals in the four Paralympic Games from 2000 to 20 12, conquered the stadium and audience with superb competitive level, and explained how to control his own destiny "triple jump" with practical actions.
That night, as the last torchbearer at the opening ceremony, Li Duan was particularly proud to sing the national anthem with 90,000 spectators. His words have a sense of honor and responsibility: "I represent not only myself, but all athletes and disabled athletes." I want to show the spirit of self-improvement of these athletes and the 85 million disabled people in China. I am particularly excited and confident. " Earlier in an interview with the media, Li Duan also said that "the wounded soldier is still a soldier", and he will shine as always.
Wonderful Experience of Rare Scenes in the 2022 Paralympic Winter Games In the biathlon women's short distance (visually impaired) competition of the Beijing Paralympic Winter Games, China athletes Wang Yue and Yang Qianru won the fourth and fifth place respectively. "Although I can't see the world clearly, I want the world to see us." After the game, China athletes spoke freely.
There are 9 athletes in the biathlon women's short distance (visually impaired) competition of the Beijing Paralympic Games, two of whom are from China. According to the starting list, China athlete Yang Qianru started for the second time under the guidance of the guide, and Wang Yue started for the fifth time under the guidance of the guide. With the close cooperation of the guide, the two athletes successfully completed the competition. Wang Yue won the fourth place and Yang Qianru won the fifth place.
"Today's performance is expected to be better before the game and I have played my own strength." In the interview after the game, Yang Qianru was very satisfied with the result of the game.
Yang Qianru, born in 200 1, is an athlete from Beijing. When she first entered the cross-country skiing team of Beijing Paralympic Games, she was 1 m 7 and weighed only 90 kg, so it was very difficult to complete the training. In order to be strong, she eats five eggs before going to bed every night. In order to catch up with her teammates, she practices one more lesson every morning and evening. Finally, her body became stronger and stronger, and the gap with others became smaller and smaller, and she won two silver medals in the Asian Cup.
Yang Qianru said that she would like to thank all the people who supported her, especially the guides and coaches. "Without any of them, I wouldn't be who I am today." Yang Qianru said that during the competition, the tour guide Yu has been cheering for her and giving her the courage to overcome difficulties.
"I never choose to give up. I will work harder and be more determined than before. " At this Paralympic Games, Yang Qianru will also participate in the Paralympic Winter Biathlon.
Wang Yue, a 22-year-old from Qinhuangdao, Hebei Province, just turned 17 years old when he was exposed to ice and snow sports. As a disabled athlete, on the road of training, the difficulties encountered by Wang Yue are unimaginable to ordinary people. But no matter how hard it was, she never thought of giving up.
Finally, on the stage of Beijing Paralympic Games, they challenged themselves and showed the world the elegance of visually impaired athletes.
Excellent Experience of Rare Scenes in the 2022 Paralympic Winter Games 3 The 1 gold medal won by the China team on the 7th came from the snowboarding field of the Paralympic Games. At this point, the China team "unlocked" all the gold medals in the four snow events of the Paralympic Games.
After 00, the team won the championship and the third runner-up China achieved full coverage of the snow gold medal.
Paralympic snowboarding, which has eight gold medals, started the gold medal battle on the 7th. In the first four individual competitions, China's "After 00" team won the top four in the men's obstacle course chase-UL class.
This time, the China team sent six athletes to participate in the men's snowboarding steeplechase UL, and five of them were "post-00". After one slip and two slips, in the finals and semi-finals of 1/4, China's four "post-00" teenagers Ji, Wang, Zhu Yonggang and Zhang Yiqi swept all four seats in the finals and locked in the third place in the championship for China in advance.
Finally, Ji, Wang and Zhu Yonggang won the gold medal, silver medal and bronze medal respectively. This gold medal is China's first gold medal at the Winter Paralympics, and it is also the first time that the China delegation won a big medal at the Winter Paralympics. Zhang Yiqi (17 years old), the youngest in the "post-00" group, ranks fourth in this project.
Wu Zhongwei, a 25-year-old from Hebei, won the bronze medal and Canadian won the championship in the men's individual pursuit of snowboarding in LLI. In the other two finals, France won the women's obstacle course LL2, while Finland won the men's LL2 gold medal.
There are four snow sports in this year's Winter Paralympics. In the previous two days' competitions, China team has achieved the breakthrough of zero gold medals in alpine skiing, biathlon and cross-country skiing. Now, snowboarding has won the championship again, and the China delegation has achieved full coverage of four snow events in the Winter Paralympics.
Alpine skiing won three women's all-around medals, and cross-country skiing won 1 silver medal and 1 bronze medal.
On the 7th, the Paralympic Alpine Skiing produced 6 gold medals for men and women, and the China women's team won on the third line and won 2 silver 1 bronze medal.
After winning the silver medals in women's all-around standing and visually impaired respectively, Zhang, a 20-year-old teenager, and Zhu Daqing, a 32-year-old veteran, both won three medals, including Zhang 1 gold 2 silver and Zhu Daqing 2 silver 1 bronze. The two will also participate in the women's slalom and slalom respectively, which is expected to further expand their achievements.
Liu Sitong, another player from China, won the bronze medal in women's all-around sitting posture, which is the second bronze medal Liu Sitong won in this Winter Paralympics. Slovakia, Sweden and Germany won gold medals in women's omni-directional visual impairment, standing posture and sitting posture respectively.

On that day, two medals came from men's long distance (traditional technique)-standing posture. Cai Jiayun, a teenager after 00, and Qiu, a 33-year-old veteran, won the silver medal and bronze medal respectively, and the gold medal was won by Japanese players.
Unfortunately, in the women's long-distance (traditional technique)-standing posture and visually impaired competition, China's Qing and Wang Yue both ranked fourth and missed medals.
Wonderful Experience of Rare Scenes in the 2022 Paralympic Winter Games 4 After defeating the Korean team 9:4 on the afternoon of the 7th, the defending champion China wheelchair curling team ushered in two consecutive victories, with 2 wins and 2 losses in the first four games. On the evening of 7th, Beijing time, China wheelchair curling team will play against Swiss team and American team on 8th.
The Chinese Paralympic Ice Hockey Team defeated the Czech team 5-2 on the evening of the 6th, and also won two consecutive victories. After a 7-day break, the China Paralympic Ice Hockey Team will face the Italian team, the last opponent of Group B, on the 8th.
Although the Chinese Paralympic Ice Hockey Team was established on 20 16, it has made rapid progress. In 20 18, he won the championship in Group C and entered Group B. In 200212002, he won the championship in Group B and entered Group A. This Winter Olympics will strive for medals.
As the final of Alpine Skiing Hexathlon originally scheduled to be held on the 8th was advanced to the 7th, only six gold medals will be decided in the Beijing Paralympic Games on the 8th in terms of standing posture, sitting posture and visually impaired distance for men and women in biathlon.
The men's cycling competition at the Beijing Paralympic Games venue is under way. Australian TV commentators speak faster and faster, even before they can catch their breath, which is comparable to the speed of athletes' wheels. As the two groups of athletes crossed the finish line almost at the same time, the narrator's voice finally calmed down and the audience holding their breath could finally catch their breath.
Paralympics bring people equally attractive sports competitions, and the audience can get the same pleasure from them. Such a wonderful sports competition is no different from that of healthy people. Katrina Webb, an Australian Paralympic athlete, said in Beijing a few days ago: "I hope everyone can watch the Paralympic Games. Some people think that the Paralympic Games focus on participation, followed by competition, but I want to say that the Paralympic Games, like any other sport, every athlete can only become a leader if he works hard, and the Paralympic Games are equally excited and disappointed. "
Katrina, an Australian track and field athlete aged 3 1 year, was trained as a promising ball player at the age of 18. But not long after, she suffered from mild cerebral palsy and then moved to track and field. So far, she has won three gold medals, three silver medals and 1 bronze medals in three Paralympic Games. From the able-bodied to the disabled, from the Olympic Games to the Paralympic Games, Katrina learned more. She said that the Paralympic Games is a real sports competition, but athletes happen to have disabilities, but their training is more difficult than before.
After decades of development, the Paralympic Games have attracted more and more attention. Twenty years ago, in Australia, Paralympic athletes didn't even have uniforms, and they had to pay their own travel expenses. Now athletes not only get a lot of financial support from the government and society, but also get better coaching guidance. The media also pay more attention to the Paralympic Games than before, with more TV broadcast time and vivid newspaper features. All this is inseparable from the athletes' hard work on the field and their dedication to the equally wonderful sports meeting in the world.
Wonderful experience The rare and famous scene of the 2022 Winter Paralympics "5 38" International Women's Day is the fourth competition day after the opening of the Beijing Winter Paralympics. At the press conference held on the 8th, the IPC and BOCOG extended festive wishes to the female athletes, officials, staff, volunteers and media reporters who participated in the Beijing Winter Paralympics. At the same time, they said that the Beijing Winter Paralympics has been highly recognized by all parties concerned in the organization and operation of the events and the guarantee of venue services.
Craig spence, spokesman of the International Paralympic Committee, congratulated the Beijing Winter Olympics Organizing Committee. For example, he said that since the beginning of the competition, a meeting of heads of delegations has been held every day to discuss and solve various problems. Judging from the experience of previous competitions, this meeting usually lasts for several hours, but the meeting of heads of delegations held in Beijing the day before ended in only 22 minutes. "Everyone basically didn't reflect any problems. The heads expressed great admiration for the smooth progress of the event and the concern of the organizing Committee for the athletes. "
Yang Shuan, vice chairman of the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee for the Winter Olympics, said that as of the 7th, the Beijing Paralympic Games had been held for three complete competition days, and 36 of the 78 events had started, resulting in 34 gold medals.
"Judging from the operation of the events in the past three days, I am very proud to tell you that all participating athletes, officials, the International Paralympic Committee and the Paralympic Winter Sports Federation spoke highly of the organization and operation of the Beijing Winter Paralympics." Yang Shuan said, "Everyone thinks that our stadium is very good, the quality of ice and snow is very good, the organization and operation of the sports meeting are very good, and the service is very good, including the operation of our city, which is beyond everyone's expectation."
Yang Shuan said that all parties concerned also spoke highly of the barrier-free facilities of the Beijing Winter Paralympic Games. "This fully reflects our society's concern, love and tolerance for the disabled. Providing the best service for disabled friends is a very important aspect of our entire activity organization and operation. "
He said that when bidding for the Beijing Winter Olympics and the Winter Paralympics, we promised the world that "the two Olympics are equally wonderful". "I think from the opening ceremony of the Winter Paralympics, we can really feel that' the two Olympics are equally wonderful', which is a social attitude and a social responsibility."
Huang Chun, deputy director of the Office of Epidemic Prevention and Control of the Winter Olympics Organizing Committee, explained the closed-loop epidemic prevention work during the Winter Paralympics at the press conference. Huang Chun believes that so far, the closed-loop epidemic prevention work is remarkable. "This is due to the fact that each of our participants is conscientiously implementing the epidemic prevention manual and implementing scientific epidemic prevention measures in a closed loop."
Wonderful Experience of Rare Scenes of the 2022 Paralympic Winter Games 6 The curtain of the Beijing Paralympic Winter Games has been opened, and the National Alpine Skiing Center has entered a new competition cycle. China's national team sang all the way and won many medals in succession, leading the medal list. I am proud of them!
Xiong, a volunteer from the Alpine Ski Center, told me that at work, he not only witnessed the elegance of the athletes, but also felt the warm atmosphere at the scene, including the temperature, which was even more touching. When the athletes fly down the slide and cross the finish line, no matter whether their performance is excellent or not, they will shout loudly and vent their pent-up emotions. "I can feel the bitterness and hardships along the way. Only they understand that they can show their posture on the field without regret. "
What excites the bear most is the scene of China athletes winning the championship. "At that time, it was the men's super giant slalom standing competition. Everyone is staring at the screen, watching the performance of China athlete Liang Jingyi, and silently praying for him. I saw that his advantage was getting bigger and bigger, gradually leading his opponent, and finally he steadily rushed to the top of the leaderboard. The logo of'1'and the pattern of the five-star red flag are particularly dazzling on the screen. "
The games on the mountain are splendid, and the village of Paralympic Winter Games at the foot of the mountain is also full of lively and joyful atmosphere. We have received many award-winning athletes and heads of delegations in our work. After the first match day, the head of the Slovak delegation came to the front desk to handle business. At that time, he was very happy and shared his joy with us: "Slovakia won the first gold medal of the Beijing 2022 Paralympic Games. This is a historic moment. I am very happy, and I hope to share my happiness with you. Thank you for your efforts! " I am also very excited to see the irrepressible happiness of the head of the delegation.
Yesterday (7th), a staff member of China delegation also came to the front desk to handle business. When I saw a bag full of medal boxes and certificates in her hand, I couldn't help admiring: "This is the domineering first in the medal list!" Hearing the praise, she proudly said, "We should bring more games at home! Don't worry, there will be more competitions in the future! "
Yang Shuan said that all parties concerned also spoke highly of the barrier-free facilities of the Beijing Winter Paralympic Games. "This fully reflects our society's concern, love and tolerance for the disabled. Providing the best service for disabled friends is a very important aspect of our entire activity organization and operation. " He said that when bidding for the Beijing Winter Olympics and Paralympics, we promised the world that "the two Olympics are equally wonderful" and "this is a social attitude and a social responsibility".
Wonderful Experience Seven rare scenes of the 2022 Paralympic Winter Games crossed the last corner of the rock runway of the National Alpine Ski Center and jumped into people's field of vision. When they rushed to the finish line at full speed, the China team's coaching staff, technical officials and volunteers waiting in the finish line area had entered the carnival mode. On the second competition day after the opening of the Beijing Paralympic Games, alpine skiing in China ushered in a passionate moment to break through history: 1: 13.54! In the alpine skiing event of Paralympic Games, China athletes finally reached the highest podium for the first time!
"I like' Jin Rongrong' very much. I like gold!" Zhang said: "I feel very happy and excited now."
Zhang was born in 2002. /kloc-at the age of 0/4, she was selected by Hebei Disabled Persons' Federation and became an alpine skier. "When I first arrived in the team, I didn't know anything. The coach told me that if you want to ski well, you must practice your physical fitness. After a physical training, my leg hurts so much that I can't walk. I thought about giving up at that time. How did I suffer so much at home? "
Later, seeing that his teammates were training hard every day, Zhang dismissed the idea. "We must persist, and persistence is victory. How many beats can life have? Not now. When? This sentence is my motivation. " Zhang said to him.
She put on her skis for the first time and stood on the snowy road, and fell on a small gentle slope several times. Later, she gradually mastered some skills and got better and better. Xiaoqiumeng failed to get on the podium when she first participated in the Hebei Paralympic Games. Seeing her teammates standing on the podium, she secretly made up her mind that she must stand on the podium next time. In the end, he won one silver and one bronze in the first national alpine skiing championship for the disabled and successfully entered the national team.
"At that time, I told myself that in the next competition, my goal was not to be second or third, but to win the championship. In the end, I won gold medals at the National Paralympic Games and the Provincial Games. " Zhang said to him.
After winning the national championship, Zhang began to attack higher goals. "First of all, I went to New Zealand to see the difference between foreign snow trails and domestic snow trails. Although there are not many opponents, I have accumulated some competition experience. Later, I went to some European countries and participated in the European Cup and the World Cup. I know a little about foreign athletes and feel that the gap between me and foreign athletes is particularly large. I have to keep working hard. "
In order to narrow the gap as soon as possible, Zhang and her partners redoubled their efforts. Behind them, many people give their full support in various ways. Wang Xiangping, the leader of China Alpine Ski Team for the Disabled, said that these athletes can rapidly improve their competitive level, which is inseparable from the system guarantee of the national team from the selection of materials to the daily team management, the guarantee of the facilities of many high-level ski resorts, and the indomitable will of our athletes.
In 2020, Zhang won the first alpine skiing gold medal for the disabled in the World Cup for China. Then she won three medals in the World Cup. Before the opening of the Beijing Paralympic Games, she was regarded as a champion by official website of the International Paralympic Committee.
On March 5th, she was expected to win the second place in the women's standing downhill event with a difference of 0. 1 sec. "I am very happy. Downhill is not my strong point. Today's results will help the following games (in terms of confidence)." Zhang said after winning the silver medal. After winning the gold medal, when the reporter asked her what kind of values she wanted to convey to people through this champion, she first said, "I am too stupid to speak", then thought for a moment and said slowly, "I want more people to know that as long as I work hard, I will gain something."
Wonderful Experience of Rare Scenes of the 2022 Paralympic Winter Games 8 At the opening ceremony of the Beijing Paralympic Winter Games, 90 actors from China Disabled Art Troupe, Zhejiang Disabled Art Troupe and Beijing Sport University dressed in snow-white costumes turned into shining snowflakes in the National Stadium with the music of the Waltz of the Paralympic Winter Games, and danced out of the flowing world of ice and snow.
Before the opening of the Winter Paralympics 19, at midnight on February 3rd 1, the China Sports Management Center for the Disabled in Shunyi, Beijing was still brightly lit. On the temporary platform of 10 meters high, the director Pei Yun kept shouting instructions, and 90 actors adjusted their positions with the help of the sign language teacher. Li, director of China Disabled Art Troupe, was seconded to the director group to participate in the creation of Waltz. She was so excited that she trotted to the open space beside the field and put out various snowflake shapes on the ground with toothpicks. "Each toothpick represents an actor. We originally thought of 65,438+000 groups of snowflake shapes. " Li said to him.
Rehearsals for Waltz always end late. Wei Jingyang, a deaf actor in the dance team of the Art Troupe, signed: "We usually rehearse from 9 am to evening 1 1. If you rehearse in this simulation venue, it will be late. " The simulation site is the largest and coldest of the three training sites. The actors are all wearing thick long down jackets. There are many tumbling movements in the dance, which need the actors to lie on the ground to finish. After practicing all night, the ground was clean.
After more than two months of rehearsal, most of the actors' dancing shoes were worn out. Wei Jingyang wrapped his red cotton dancing shoes with yellow tape and continued to rehearse. "You can look at Liu Qiao's dancing shoes." Xu Kexin, an actor from the Third Team of Art Troupe, said naughtily, covering her toes. Liu Qiao, the actress of the third dance team, can speak with dancing shoes. She and her teammates are students of Grade 20 15 in the High School Attached to the Art Troupe, and now they are studying together in the dance major of Changchun University. The new dance shoes bought by the art troupe arrived at the base early, and no one changed them. "Nobody wants to change them. They wear out too quickly, so they can save some money." This pair of broken dancing shoes is also a record of the actors' struggle for the opening ceremony of the Winter Paralympic Games.
"Waltz" requires the actor to complete the dance by rotating the chair. How to coordinate the chair with people and how to control the rotation is the focus and the most difficult part of the training. It takes a long time of continuous practice and running-in to form a man-chair integration. Wei Jingyang said, "We just started practicing and got hurt by a chair. We feel that our body is not our own, and we can wake up when we sleep. " Hard training and physical pain did not stop everyone's enthusiasm for training, and finally they all persisted, and no one quit.
On the night of the "Bird's Nest", they danced with hope and persistence, creating a beautiful scene of flowing ice and snow, which made the flowers of the Paralympic Games bloom.
