Chapter 201? Aachen Equestrian Festival

Naturalized athletes are a complex system. In China, they are in their infancy and have many problems that are slowly revealed.

There are individuals and national equestrian competitions in Aachen, and national competitions are the same concept as the Olympic team competitions.

Huan Xiang got the quota and changed his nationality. For Huan Xiang, it was to fulfill his grandfather's last wish, and for the Chinese national equestrian team, it was the hope of Chinese equestrian in the field of dressage.

But for Denmark, and even for the Han family in Denmark, it is actually not too friendly.

China does not allow dual nationality, and giving up Danish nationality is an inevitable choice for Guan Xiang.

His mother Mo Yinluo has always been Chinese. At this point, it is actually not difficult to exchange Huanxiang for Chinese nationality.

However, even if Mo Yinlu is Chinese, even Huan Chenbei is a Chinese with yellow skin and dark hair. After all, Huan Xiang was born in Denmark, and even Huan Chenbei was born with Danish nationality.

The attention and evaluation received by naturalized athletes in China and at their birthplace are definitely different.

In particular, Huanxiang is also a rising star in the dressage world in Denmark.

Denmark is a traditional power of dressage, but for the past few decades, dressage has been ruled by the Germans.

Losing Huanxiang is definitely a loss for the Danish national equestrian team.

Moreover, what Danish equestrians most cannot understand is that Huanxiang chose to represent China, a "backward country" that has just begun.

In the eyes of Huan Xiang's former teammates, although Huan Xiang's conditions were good, they were still young after all, and they were still far from the Olympic medals.

With the conditions of being an official, if the chance of individuals being on the podium is not high, it is not difficult to accept if you can get a team medal with better Olympic quality in order to get a team medal in Germany or something.

But for the sake of a Chinese who is not a host, who has never qualified for the Olympic dressage competition, it is very likely that the Olympic team bronze medals or even silver medals will be obtained.

Especially when the dressage competition at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics has undergone major adjustments.

The situation where German athletes dominate the Olympic dressage is something that the Olympics do not want to see.

Just like Chinese table tennis is too powerful, the rules of every table tennis game are set to limit Chinese players.

In Tokyo in 2020, the dressage team competition will no longer use the method of winning the top three with the best results in each country to determine the final champion.

The number of teams in each country has been reduced from four pairs of players to three teams.

In this way, as long as a team in a dominant position makes a mistake in a team, the champion may be directly defeated.

This is a stricter game rule and a more uncertain rule.

Under this new rule, the contestants in the team competition need to have a strong mentality and stable performance.

Denmark's equestrian sports have a high level of development and are a traditional powerhouse of equestrian sports.

This is due to the very famous cavalry of Denmark since the age of cold weapons.

In fact, the three equestrian sports in the Olympics all come from military.

There is a dressage competition that requires wearing a tuxedo, and there is a very special rule.

If an athlete is a soldier, he or she can participate in the competition without wearing a good uniform.

This tradition, although rarely used, is a form of expression of the historical source of equestrian sports.

Although Huan Xiang is not the number one rider in Denmark, his stability has always been praised by the intersection.

Whether it is a partner with previous participating partners or with current [Real Belief], Huanxiang's performance has been steadily improved every time.

This is actually extremely rare.

Not only do players have good psychological qualities, but they also need to have equally excellent and outstanding horses.

The biggest pain in equestrian athletes is due to the poor lifespan of humans and horses.

If a person lives one hundred years old, a horse can only live 25-30 years old.

Losing the horse that has been with you for many years and starting to train a new horse again is likely to directly lead to the end of your career.

A talented horse and a talented athlete are equally hard to come by.

Every time Huanxiang trains a horse, he can train the horse very well. This is what the Danish team values ​​Huanxiang the most.

On July 16, 2018, Huan Xiang brought [Real Faith], who was nearly four months pregnant, to participate in the dressage competition of the Aachen World Equestrian Festival.

Huanxiang didn't have to come so early, because the 2018 Aachen equestrian competition opened on July 17, and the dressage was the last competition event.

But this year's Aachen Equestrian Festival is a bit special.

Huan Xiang wanted to bring Qi Yu, who was on holiday, and [Rock Blacksmith], who had been training with him for more than three months, to Aachen to experience the immersive equestrian atmosphere.

Convinced Qi Yu to bring [Lanhe Blacksmith] to the Aachen Equestrian Festival with him, and spend more money on Brother Huanxiang.

Qi Yu originally wanted to go, but after hearing that Huan Chenbei and Mo Yinluo were going to go, he began to give up.

Huan Xiang criticized Qi Yu and said, "Ugly daughter-in-law always wants to meet her parents-in-law."

Qi Yu did not refute Chou, but said: "If you don't be your wife, don't have to see you soon?"

"But, but, this time the Aachen equestrian direct cup has very strong Chinese elements. Are you sure you don't want to feel the spark of the collision between Chinese elements and equestrian culture?"

"It's because of the extra dressage rider like you who has changed from Denmark to Chinese nationality?" Qi Yuman disagreed.

If she wants to witness the rider Huanxiang's style, how can she have to wait for a major equestrian competition?

"Of course not. I don't think I have such a big face. In fact, no athlete actually has such a great energy." Brother Huan Xiang has always liked to tell the truth, which is essentially different from the fact that Qi Wangpo sells melons and meets.

Brother Huan Xiang gave a popular science to Qi Xiaoyu, who still seemed to know nothing about the Aachen Equestrian Festival:

"Since 2001, Aachen World Equestrian Festival will find a partner country."

"The purpose of doing this is to hope that the Aachen Equestrian Festival can have a greater influence and integrate into different cultural characteristics around the world."

"In the past decade, the Aachen World Equestrian Festival has been looking for partners around the world, and they are traditional equestrian powers."

"For example, we have developed equestrian sports in Denmark, Switzerland, Sweden, the Netherlands, Brazil and other countries, and have been partners in the Aachen Equestrian Festival."

When Qi Yu heard this, he didn't grasp the key point and was unhappy that the index led to a sharp rise: "What is our Denmark?"

"Don't you like Denmark too? Even if I change my Chinese nationality, I still have feelings for Denmark. This should not be surprising? Do you want your brother Huanxiang to be a ruthless person? Or, you have no feelings for Brisbane?"

When Huan Xiang was corrected by Qi Yu for the second time, he finally expressed the truth-telling characteristics.

"This...that...uh, this is obviously not the point!" Qi · couldn't say that he had to change the topic and was about to go online.

"What's the point?"

"The key point is what does these partner countries have to do with whether I go to Aachen or not?" Qi Yu had a natural rejection of Huan Chenbei.

The psychological shadows I have had since childhood are difficult to change at once.

"My fault, I'm talking about relationships now. At the 2018 Aachen World Equestrian Festival, we did not choose a country with a very mature equestrian movement as a partner country, but chose China."

"This year, Frank Kampman, president of the Aachen World Equestrian Festival, focused the attention of world equestrian enthusiasts on China."

"Equestrianism became an Olympic event as early as 1912, but China was not involved in the equestrian event until the founding of New China. It was not until the 1950s and 1960s, and it was still limited to a very small range."

"China's equestrian sports was several decades later than European countries. It was not until China joined the International Horse Federation in 1982 that it began to participate in large-scale competitions."

"If we start from joining the International Horse Union, the start of Chinese equestrianism is 70 years late."

"China can become a partner of the Aachen World Equestrian Festival in 2018, thanks to the all-round development of Chinese equestrianism in the past decade."

"Behind the choice made by Frank Kampman, president of the Aachen World Equestrian Festival, is the rise of China's economy, which directly drives the internationalization of equestrians."

"He is optimistic about the future of Chinese equestrianism."

Huan Xiang and Qi Yu introduced the special nature of the equestrian world in Aachen 2018.

"It's amazing, the future of Chinese equestrianism." Qi Yu's attitude changed a little, but it was difficult to detect the faintest ones.

"If you go to the opening ceremony with me, you will see the entire Aachen main stadium transforming into a sea of ​​Chinese elements."

"Chinese elements are also great, but, but, if I want to see Chinese elements, wouldn't I go back to China to watch them directly?" Qi Xiaoyu was not a female classmate who was so easily convinced.

"If you go to the opening ceremony with me, you will see China's dragon and lion dance." Huan Xiang continued to throw out his olive branch.

"Thank you, I want to go back to China to see you." Qi Yu continued to stick to his ideas.

Huan Xiang didn't care about Qi Yu's attitude, but threw out the last chip lightly: "If you go to the opening ceremony with me, you will also see the performance of the "Red Cherry Blossom" women's percussion band that once participated in the closing ceremony of the Beijing Olympics."

"Red Sakura Bunch? Tell me about the band of twelve girls who played drums at the closing ceremony of the Beijing Olympics?!" The percussion fan and the only percussionist in "Dance of the Blacksmith", instantly became extremely excited.
