On the evening of November 27, Beijing time, the torch for the 2006 Turin Winter Olympics was held in ancient Greece Olympia The town was set on fire, the holy fire dispersed the gloom of the sky, and the torch relay road quietly lit up. In the coming days, the flame will burn all the way from Greece to Italy and finally to the main Olympic venue in the host city of Turin.

At 12:30 local time, the lighting ceremony took place not far from the ancient Greek Arena Temple of Hera Hold. Unfortunately, it's the sun God Apollo The prayer of the priestess Sharku was not heard, and the sky over the ancient Greek town of Olympia was too cloudy to use condenser The spark was collected. The stage performer and television amphibian star, who is taking on the priesthood for the first time, had no choice but to use the fire saved from Saturday's rehearsal. Since the 1936 Berlin Olympics This is the fourth time in the history of collecting fire in Greece that a "backup" fire has been used due to rain.
Sharku, along with 17 other priestesses, escorted the flame in an ancient Greek vessel to the father of the modern Olympics Pierre de Coubertin In front of the tomb, the first torchbearer, 19-year-old Greek pole vaulter Filipdis, was already waiting in a white and orange jersey. After a grand ceremony, Sharcu used the flame to light the torch in the hands of Philipdis, and the torch relay of the 2006 Winter Olympics began.

mascot

The mascots for the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, Italy, Neve and Gliz, designed by Portuguese designer Pedro Albuquerque, were officially announced on September 28, 2005. The image of Neve is a little girl dressed in red with a round head shaped like a snowball. "Gliz" is a little boy in a blue suit with a square head shaped like an ice cube. They symbolize the two essential elements of the Winter Olympic program - snow and ice. [3]
"Neve" and "Gliz"

medal

The 2006 Winter Olympics MEDALS featured a circular hollow design, with the medal straps tied casually and elegantly through a circular hole in the middle, with a gap in the middle representing the Piazza Italia. At the same time, like the Olympic rings or the ring symbolizing victory, its center is the open space, symbolizing the place where the heart beats, symbolizing life. The medal is complete only when it is suspended on the athlete's chest and the hollow area of the medal near the heart, drawing attention to the athlete's vitality and human emotion.
In order to highlight the three-dimensional character of the medal, its surface has been carefully designed to use full and blank space contrast, with a shiny, smooth texture. On the front of the MEDALS are graphic elements of the Winter Olympics, and on the back are pictograms of the winning athletes engaged in sports. [2]

summarize

Two golds, four silvers and five bronzes - Although China's gold medal haul in Turin was the same as last winter's, its 11 MEDALS have already made history. China's ice and snow team has won a total of 22 MEDALS in the seven previous Winter Olympics it has participated in, with the most won four years ago 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics At that time, only eight MEDALS were collected.

The first payment is made on the snow

Han Xiaopeng
In ice and snow events, in terms of level and performance, China has always been "snow is inferior to ice". That imbalance has begun to change in Turin, thanks to Han Xiaopeng's stunning gold medal in the men's aerials freestyle skiing event.
Freestyle skiing is a "long-planned" breakthrough in China's snow events. As early as 1998 Nagano Winter Olympics Up. Xu Annian Won the silver medal in women's aerials, changing the embarrassment of China's Winter Olympics and MEDALS. This time in Turin, China's "four golden flowers" all ranked among the top 12 finalists in aerial skills, Li Nina, Xu Nannan, Guo Xinxin They placed 2nd, 4th and 6th respectively, showing a strong overall advantage.
In men's aerials, China's previous best result was only 17th. This Winter Olympics not only featured Han Xiaopeng, Qiu Sen At the same time into the final, the former also ranked first in the qualification and final, undisputed back the gold medal. This is not only the first time that an Asian athlete has won a gold medal in freestyle skiing, but also the first time that a Chinese male athlete has dominated the Winter Olympics.
At the last Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, China competed in only 17 events in the three snow sports of biathlon, cross-country skiing and freestyle skiing. In Turin Winter Olympics, in addition to the above three major events, Chinese athletes also appeared in alpine skiing, ski jumping, snowboarding venues, involved in snow events for the first time increased to six; The number of items jumped to 27.
And for the first time, more Chinese competed on snow than on ice. Of the 84 events at the Turin Winter Olympics, two-thirds are snow events. China has greatly increased the number of snow events, showing the intention and attitude of entering the Winter Olympics in an all-round way.
The Turin event and the last Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City both participated in a total of 15 events. If you compare, you will find that the results of two-thirds of the events this year are better. Among them, biathlon can be compared with 7 events, and 4 results are better than the previous session. In the men's 10km individual event, the best place in the past was only 41st. This time, Jang Sung-yeop, 23, ranked 18th. In the women's 10km individual, the best result of the last Chinese athlete was 44th; The 28-year-old Yoo Hyun Young Ranked ninth. If China improves the level of shooting, the ranking will be greatly improved.
The women's 12.5km collective start is the newly established single event of the biathlon, Liu Xianying ranked 7th, and the top six are all European players. This is already China's best biathlon position at this Winter Olympics.
Cross-country skiing China's most prominent performance is 22 years old Wang Chunli . She ranked 18th and 21st respectively in the women's 10km and 20km individual events, both of which set the best level in Chinese history.

Most of the individual results on the ice are bullish

In the last Winter Olympics, Yang Yang won two gold MEDALS in women's short track speed skating, breaking the deadlock of zero gold MEDALS for China in the history of the Winter Olympics. In Turin Winter Olympics, China sent a total of 34 players to participate in 3 major events and 22 minor events on ice. Although only Wang Meng harvested a gold medal, compared with the 17 ice events that Turin and Salt Lake City participated in the two Winter Olympics, except for 1 place, China has 10 results better than the last one.
China's speed skating program failed to achieve the goal of winning the gold medal, but the overall strength of the improvement is obvious to all. In Turin, China's 15 ice athletes participated in 11 events, and compared with all 7 events that were jointly participated in last and this year, the results of this year have improved to varying degrees.
The women's most noteworthy event is the 500 meters event, because China's Wang Manli and Ren Hui won the second and third place in the event. In the 16th Winter Olympic Games in 1992, Ye Qiaobo won the silver medal of women's 500-meter speed skating. It is the first time for Chinese speed skating to win two MEDALS in a single event. Since the 18th Winter Olympic Games in 1998, the 500-meter speed skating has been changed to the total score of two slides to determine the ranking, and the difficulty has increased. Wang's silver medal is the first time a Chinese athlete has won a medal in the 500-meter speed skating under the new rules.
In men's speed skating, China's best performance was in the 500-meter event. 21-year-old Yu Fengtong This Winter Olympics ranked 5th and was the 17th Winter Olympics in 1994 Liu Hongbo After winning the 4th place in the event, the best performance of Chinese men's speed skating.
Of the three figure skating events, pairs skating is the most eye-catching performance of China in the Turin Winter Olympics. At the last Winter Olympics, Shen Xue and Zhao Hongbo won bronze MEDALS. This is not only the best result in the history of China's single event, but also one of the best results in the history of China's figure skating in the Winter Olympics.
In this Winter Olympics, China sent Zhang Dan/Zhang Hao, Shen Xue/Zhao Hongbo, Pang Thanh / Tong Jian A total of three pairs competed in the pairs skating competition, the results of the second through the fourth place. This is also rare in the history of the Winter Olympics.
Short track speed skating has always been the focus of China's gold medal, this time the gold medal, the number of MEDALS have failed to surpass the last Winter Olympics, 8 entries have 5 lower than the previous ranking, only the men's 1000 meters, women's 1500 meters results better than the last.

A champion is a young man

Compared with the Summer Games, Winter Olympic winners are relatively older. However, China's Turin Winter Olympic gold medalists Wang Meng and Han Xiaopeng are only 20 and 22 years old, respectively, which can be called a big boy.
Although Wang Meng is the first time to participate in the Winter Olympics, but has been "battlehardened" in the past two years in the short track speed skating women's 500 meters project almost invincible. This Winter Olympic Games and only won the 500 meters champion, 1000 meters runner-up, 1500 meters third, is the only person who won three MEDALS in the Chinese army.
At the last Winter Olympics, Han Xiaopeng ranked 24th out of 30 men's aerials in freestyle skiing. And he has never won a gold medal in a world competition. This Winter Olympics, he from the qualification to the final "one black in the end", and finally won the gold medal, showing a rare psychological quality beyond his age. This is the most valuable thing for a high-level player.
Not only are the champions, but most of the other Chinese athletes who brought home MEDALS at this Winter Olympics are also very young. Zhang Dan and Zhang Hao are participating in the Winter Olympics for the second time and are only 20 and 21 years old respectively. They won the second place in pairs skating, which is already a breakthrough for Asian players in the event. A total of 20 pairs of players participated in the Turin Winter Olympics, Zhang Dan and Zhang Hao are the youngest pair in the top nine, and the future is unlimited.
Li Nina was the favorite to win the women's aerials in freestyle skiing before the competition. Unfortunately, she lost out to 29-year-old Ruhe of Switzerland and won a silver medal. However, she is just 23 years old and has a long road ahead of her.
There is also the women's speed skating 500 meters bronze medalist Ren Hui, 1.80 meters tall, the condition is very good. He won the gold medal in 1000m speed skating at the World University Winter Games last year. But for a mistake in the 1,000m, the 22-year-old could have finished well.
In addition, some young Chinese players have undergone training in Turin, showing promising prospects for development. Like Guo Xinxin of freestyle skiing aerials, who qualified second; The first jump ranked first in the final, and the second jump was the champion as long as it stood firm, but it was a mistake when it landed, and the result was ranked sixth. She is only 22 years old, the difficulty of the action has reached the world's first, if the future in the stability of the work, can completely impact the world competition gold medal.
For the first time, China participated in the women's snowboard halfpipe competition at the Winter Olympics. The two competitors were Pan Lei, 17, and Sun Zhifeng, less than 15. They qualified 28th and 31st respectively, failing to qualify for the final, but still showing a high starting point.
Snowboarding is a young sport, having only entered the Winter Olympics in 1998. China has carried out the project for a short time, and it is already very difficult for two people to get "tickets" for the Winter Olympics. Pan Lei won the second place in the World University Winter Games last year. Sun Zhifeng, the youngest competitor at the Turin Winter Olympics, trained in martial arts. At present, the difficulty of her movements has caught up with the world-class players.
The Halfpipe event is very suitable for Chinese players who are known for their dexterity. As time goes on, it is entirely possible that this event will become a new gold point for China in the Winter Olympics.
