On May 23rd, it was reported that the 4th BEYOND International Science and Technology Innovation Expo (BEYOND Expo 2024) was held from May 22nd to 25th.

Today, Olympic champion Deng Yaping appeared at a women's technology summit and discussed the topic of "Why Chinese female athletes are so strong." She mentioned that Chinese traditional culture has greatly helped female athletes.

Deng Yaping believes that the first rule of competitive sports is endurance. Only after a high volume of training can one discuss talent. Chinese female athletes undergo astonishing amounts of training, possess exceptional endurance, and exhibit strong willpower.

To some extent, Chinese traditional culture has imposed restrictions and oppression on women for thousands of years. However, it has also made Chinese women particularly resilient and enduring. Whether in the family or in society, they have the tenacity to showcase their value.

Deng Yaping pointed out that in terms of numbers, whether at the Summer Olympics, Winter Olympics, or World Championships, there are indeed fewer male athletes from China compared to female athletes.

Chinese male athletes are not lacking in effort, but there is a certain gap between us and foreign countries. We need to objectively assess any situation.

"Many of our coaches and training partners are male, so when men and women work together, they complement each other without feeling exhausted." s_1e7ab2600cd54a7687bd60ea8f93d10b.jpg
