I hear people on Chinese social media complain that the swimming team is being bullied by the west and ignored etc.
Like what's the point? We know what the west is like. I would almost argue it's a deliberate coordinated effort with america leading it.
The only real thing you can do is win gold like Pan. Then they will be forced to to smile in front of you. And if they don't, just mock them and core them a sore loser to rub it in. That's the only real language they understand. Winning.
If China don’t win another swimming gold, I’m happy with Pan’s gold being the only one in the 100 freestyle with the world record. What is lacking in total number of golds was made up by the quality of the gold. There is no bigger or more prestigious gold than the men’s 100 freestyle in swimming. It sent a message to the West that no matter what dirty tricks they try, China won’t be kept down. Pan is the pride of China. Pride of Asia. That world record was the biggest ‘FUCK YOU’ you can give. Look at all the cope from the West after Pan’s gold. They are shell shocked. People will never ever forget Pan’s gold medal. That young man didn’t back down and stood up for his team and country when it was needed the most in the most emphatic way. It’s one of the most important golds China has ever won. For me it’s even greater than Liu Xiang’s gold in the 110m hurdles in 2004 Athens Olympics. My favourite moment of the Olympics and I doubt anything can top this.
He predicted that he will break the world record at the Paris Olympics.
