You endorse match fixing ? It is is exposed, it discredit all of china. I would rather not have a gold.

You probably think it is okay to pay athlete in order country to lose to China then.
It already is exposed though. Badminton matchfixing news on China can be found by searching. But ultimately speaking Chen is a superior player in terms of achievements compared to He. We got players who are only good at beating their own countrymen and then losing it outside.

Unfortunately though it's way harder to bribe anyone who is capable of beating China consistently in badminton. After all if they are that good, they would want to go for full glory and no amount of money would change their minds. Therefore it's a worthless tactic.

The problem with matchfixing is most of the time, some crappy person becomes the star of China and then they get exposed when they get overseas.

It was exposed and we should stop doing it. It is a shame that a true Patriot think cheating is cool.

Dunno about cheating. But what do we do when we have two people and person A is good at beating person B but is no good at beating the others to win the championship while person B is? Do we really just let it go like that?

Anyway in this case it might be pointless coz Chen Yufei doesn't have a good record against that Korean so she probably would have lost as well.

The modern china does not require match fixing to win. China is showing the world that it is playing fair in all aspects. Price matching can get both A and B disqualified. Not only it loses the medal but it reinforces the view that China cheat

This is the reputation of china at stake instead of just one medal in an Olympics.
