On the evening of June 30, Beijing time, in the women's 100-meter hurdles final of the 2024 National Track and Field Championships and National Track and Field Grand Prix Finals, Wu Yanni, the "first sister" of the Chinese track and field team, finally ran an amazing 12.74 seconds and successfully won the championship of this competition.
Another competitor of Wu Yanni, Lin Yuwei, also from the Chinese track and field team, won the runner-up with a time of 13 seconds, so in the past more than 1 year, although Wu Yanni has been controversial in terms of personality, competitive sports rely on results to speak, Wu Yanni also used championships and records again and again, so that "black fans" turned into "iron fans"
Since entering the 2024 year, Wu Yanni's personal performance has been getting better and better, she has continued to surpass herself, and has won championships in various competitions many times, and this time she won the championship at the National Track and Field Championships, which also means that before the arrival of the Paris Olympics, Wu Yanni has adjusted her condition and is just waiting to meet the challenges of the Olympic Games. After winning the championship, Wu Yanni was also very excited, she thanked her hometown parents and villagers for their support to her through her personal social media, and Wu Yanni also said domineering again: She will definitely get better and better, and the Chinese women's 100m hurdles will definitely get better and better!
With the continuous improvement of her achievements, Wu Yanni's image in the minds of netizens has also undergone earth-shaking changes, and many netizens who accused her in the past have also changed from "black fans" to fans, and the most important thing is that with Wu Yanni continuing to create history in international competitions, her influence has also expanded to foreign countries, among which the United Kingdom, France and even Japan have praised Wu Yanni
When many foreign netizens evaluate Wu Yanni, partly because of her achievements in the track and field, and partly because of Wu Yanni's exquisite makeup, some European and American netizens commented that Wu Yanni is very good at integrating elements of oriental aesthetics into modern trend makeup
Among them, the famous British media "The Guardian" praised Wu Yanni as "not only Asia's top track and field athlete, but also an outstanding contemporary makeup master", her works can not only remind people of the charm and elegance of ancient Chinese Oriental court makeup, but also lose the modern beauty, highlighting the freehand technique like Chinese ink painting, especially for the depiction of eyeliner, the flowing brush also makes Wu Yanni's eyeshadow look like smoke
For Wu Yanni's makeup every time she is in the arena, Japan, which is known as a "beauty country", is also full of praise for Wu Yanni, and many Japanese media will praise her as a female athlete and her confidence in makeup almost every time they report on Wu Yanni, and even the members of the popular Japanese idol group AKB48 are Wu Yanni's "iron fans", among which the team captain Oguri Yuyi once said that "I hope to ask and learn from her in person when I have the opportunity!" And another group member, Mayu Watanabe, even claimed, "We all envy her superb makeup skills!" ”
Perhaps because of Wu Yanni's sunny temperament on the track and field, which is more loved and accepted by Western people, Wu Yanni was also invited by the French fashion media "ELLE" to shoot a set of high-end photos for the magazine
However, to say that the most ruthless praise for Wu Yanni is the British media "Daily Star", they used the title of "Charming Hurdlers, Fight Back to Those Critics" to praise Wu Yanni, and the article even clearly mentioned that many Chinese netizens in our country criticized Wu Yanni, but "Daily Star" did not think much of Wu Yanni, the article called Wu Yanni "China's top hurdler", and believed that Wu Yanni used training and results to respond to those doubters again and again
It can be said that Wu Yanni has successfully won the recognition and support of the Western world by virtue of her track and field achievements, relying on her achievements on the field, coupled with her excellent "makeup skills", but this can't help but make us reflect: Foreign media appreciate Wu Yanni so much, why are Chinese people so harsh and picky about their own outstanding athletes?
