The 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games have begun preparations, and the recent international Olympic Games have also made a preliminary resolution to identify 28 participating events, but what caused controversy is that weightlifting, boxing, modern pentathlon and other sports were temporarily kicked out of the Olympic Games, and this blockbuster news also immediately triggered a heated discussion among netizens. As we all know, weightlifting is the big gold medal winner of the Chinese team at the Olympic Games, and at the Tokyo Olympic Games, we won 7 gold medals with weightlifting, and finally won 7 gold and 1 silver. In addition, from the 1984 Olympic Games to the 2021 Tokyo Olympic Games, China won a total of 38 gold medals through weightlifting. Obviously, such a reform of the International Olympic Games has undoubtedly dealt a devastating blow to the Chinese weightlifting team, and we will also lose 8 gold points.
In fact, this is not the first time that the IOC has targeted weightlifting. Previously, the International Olympic Games have announced that in the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, the weightlifting event will be reduced to 4 small events, in addition, each country's qualifications will be reduced by 30%, such a reform has made many of our weightlifting talents blocked at the gate of the Olympic Games, and the Chinese Legion has also lost 4 gold points, such a reform has caused an unbearable impact on our weightlifting project. A large number of weightlifters in our country, including the world, have lost the goal of struggle and stifled their dreams. It is worth mentioning that such a reform will undoubtedly benefit the American team in the end, after all, the new projects are all the dominant projects of the United States.
The reason for the cancellation of the weightlifting event at the Olympic Games is also laughable, first of all, they believe that the weightlifting project has been the hardest hit area of doping for many years, and secondly, the weightlifting project is extremely devastating to the athletes' bodies, which is also contrary to the purpose of the Olympic Games. Obviously, such an explanation is difficult to convince, if weightlifting is the hardest hit area, how can athletics and swimming be not the hardest hit area of banned drugs? But why aren't swimming and athletics cancelled? In addition, in order to achieve good results in the Olympic Games, which athletes in which sport do not pay a hundred times the effort and train hard day after day? How to destroy the body. The so-called banning of drugs and the violation of the olympic purpose are just excuses for suppressing other people's traditional projects.
In fact, China's traditional advantages of the project has been targeted not once or twice, earlier the international sports world clamored to kick table tennis out of the Olympic Games, did not succeed, and repeatedly changed the rules and formats, with the intention of erasing the gap between athletes from other countries and national table tennis players, in diving, gymnastics, but also by the referee to lower the scores of athletes, now they simply tear their faces, directly kick the weightlifting project out of the Olympic Games, and find some grand-sounding, ironic reasons. However, he also believes that these clown-like behaviors and measures cannot change the momentum of the rise of Chinese sports.
