No. 100m is his focus.
I'm hoping two more golds can be get from relays. Maybe Zhang Yufei can get one more on a good day.
3-4 golds despite sabotage is good enough to send the middle finger to the west.
Just checked the starting list for the 50m freestyle heats, unfortunately no one from team China is swimming.
the amount of extreme hatred, racism and doubt that westoids have shown about Pan Zhanle's victory is truly something. I see nothing but saltiness. Its kinda similar to what happened when Huawei released Mate 60. The shock and disbelief and instant disregard was exactly like this.
I guess even if China wins no other gold, this one gold will be enough as a story. It's basically a milestone moment. Despite the west trying to sabotage China and making them so over 20 drug tests they still went to the Olympics and won the 100m setting the record as the fastest male swimmer alive. The amount of seething from the west is insane.
Of course if China gets two more, that would make it so much better.
Cool. Can’t wait till the Mate Pro 70 moment.
Nope, they have already digested that, they now say China achieved 7NM with govt subsidies and much lower yields. 5NM on DUV also won't change that. What will really shock them next will be Chinese EUV.
Coming back to Olympics, a Chinese winning 100M sprint will be the next big hurdle. If China ever achieves this, that will be another truly historic achievement. It will also break alot of racist thinking in many people around the world about East Asian men as not being strong or athletic.

Aaaand Pan found out today what the Anglos are like. Like I said in another thread: Chinese people who bust through the firewall will only learn how horrible and racist the West is and steel their hearts as Chinese. He thought those were good sportsmen but now he knows they are as dirty and respectable as a wad of used toilet paper.
Saw that match. Our girl was not as skilled as the German, but she was younger and stronger. Under the 95 degree summer weather with the sun blaring down, Kerber looked like a dried up earthworm and by the last third of the match, she was barely able to run for the side-shots. She crouched down in exhaustion after every exchange. Admirably, she still took Zheng into overtime only by her ability to angle the ball so that it had to be returned to an area she was close to. If Zheng could do side-to-side, Kerber would have lost every point. And if it was 70 degrees and cloudy, Zheng would have probably lost the match.
Honestly, what the hell are the other forms good for? Does anyone know? @azn_cyniq ? They're all slower than the front crawl so why do they exist? Competing in all 4 forms is like competing in running except you have regular running, then running backwards, to the side, and crawling. Those other forms don't make sense to me unless they were developed for specific purposes like cutting through waves in the ocean or resisting undercurrent. I do, however, think that submerged swimming is worthy simply because it is stealthy speed.
No, weightlifting used to start on day 1 but now it starts on 8/7. They did, however, reduce the events and the athlete quotas so that a country can max out at 3 golds for the men and 3 for the women. They were justified because the doping in Eastern Europe was insane and they basically gave the IOC the finger when asked to reform.
COVID Olympics... Probably Qing too but he might be milder or something.
