In the competition, Liu Zixu set out the 17th. With superb technology and strong psychological quality, in the shooting event, the ranking is always in the forefront of all athletes.

For this cross event transformation from “static” to “dynamic”, Liu Zixu’s coach Zhu Dewen told reporters that although he has the foundation of archery, the winter biathlon is composed of two completely different styles of cross-country skiing and shooting, which requires very high dynamic and static conversion ability of athletes. Athletes should not only learn to ski, but also have high requirements for physical fitness. They need to enhance their upper limb strength through continuous basic training.

“The child is usually slow-moving. He is better than hard work. He has a flexible mind and can grasp the key points.” Zhu Dewen recalled that during the 2019 National Games, Liu Zixu cancelled training because of illness before the game, but still won the fourth place in the long-distance competition. “This result is inseparable from his usual hard training.”

Turning to today’s gold medal, Zhu Dewen said: “as a coach, of course, we are very excited, but we didn’t give him any pressure before the game and didn’t put forward any requirements for him. Just let him play normally. This result is expected and unexpected.”

“Due to the epidemic, the opportunities for athletes to compete abroad have been greatly reduced. The most recent competition was the Nordic skiing European Cup for the disabled held in waukati, Finland, last December.” Zhu Dewen introduced that in this competition, Liu Zixu won the first place in men’s biathlon (sitting posture), which is not only the first World Series gold medal won by the Chinese team in this project, but also the “stepping stone” for Liu Zixu’s trip to the Beijing winter Paralympic Games.

At the eighth Winter Olympic Games in 1960, biathlon became an official event for the first time. Along the way in China, this project has never been practiced by anyone, and it has never been understood that it has received great attention today. Zhu Dewen also expressed thousands of feelings: “I have waited for this result for more than 20 years, and this gold medal also makes us feel the strength of the country and love for sports. Our efforts over the years have finally paid off.”

Liu Yumin, director of the planning and Construction Department of the Beijing Winter Olympic Organizing Committee, introduced that in addition to barrier free access facilities, there are barrier free guidance signs in the venues of the winter Paralympic Games. Braille, large text or voice prompts in both Chinese and English are specially equipped at Anti Doping checkpoints and medical clinics. In order to meet and ensure the normal use and maintenance needs of prosthetics, wheelchairs and other accessories of disabled athletes, a standard wheelchair prosthetic repair room has been set up. In addition, all venue teams and service support personnel have received corresponding training.

“This winter Paralympic alpine ski resort is the best barrier free environment I have ever seen,” said iliana Rodriguez, an obstacle free expert of the International Paralympic Committee

The winter Paralympic Games are short-term, but it is long-term to promote the construction of urban barrier free environment and the development of the cause of the disabled in China. Therefore, the use after the games and the formation of sustainable barrier free heritage have become the focus of media attention.

“The barrier free environment created during the Games is usually a very good heritage. In addition to the disabled, non disabled people, such as the elderly and infants, may need barrier free facilities,” said Clegg Spencer, spokesman for the International Paralympic Committee

“All venues will be open to the public after the competition to provide services for more people with disabilities, so as to promote the improvement of the construction level of barrier free facilities in Beijing and even the whole of China and the development of sports for the disabled. For example, the size of barrier free seats and barrier free health rooms in the grandstand of the National Swimming Center have been increased accordingly and will be retained as permanent facilities after the competition.” Liu Yumin said.

Guo Xusheng, vice president of the Beijing Disabled Persons’ Federation, said: “Beijing has taken the opportunity of the Olympic Games to further promote the construction of barrier free environment and the development of the cause of the disabled. Many streets in Beijing, from roads and bridges to barrier free buses, barrier free cinemas and public service institutions, have achieved full slope, full elevation and full low position. By the end of 2021 The total number (of barrier free construction) is 336000. “

Yang Qiyong, deputy logistics director of the venue operation team of the National Swimming Center, said: “the curling venue for ice water conversion of the National Swimming Center will be maintained until mid to late may at least this year, during which curling experience and tourism will be open to the public.”

All departments at all levels in Chenzhou immediately carried out flow investigation and traceability, tracking, investigation and control, regional nucleic acid detection, etc., and carried out environmental monitoring and killing of the activity sites of confirmed cases. Through scientific and technological means, strengthen the investigation and identification of close contacts and secondary close contacts, strictly implement isolation and control measures by classification and zoning, postpone the opening of schools in urban areas for three days, and suspend gathering activities in Beihu district to ensure no spillover, non-proliferation and zero infection.
