She admitted that every second was a process of suffering. Although the team competition will be ushered in two days later, getting a perfect start will help her maintain her victorious mentality, “I have thought that it is a good start, but I still have to fight every sword well. The score will not come by itself. You have to fight for it, the team Of course, the team also has to fight for the medal.” She hopes that the meaning of this gold medal is not only for the individual or the fencing team, “but for all the sports-loving people in Hong Kong, and there will be more impetus.”
