Edit|South Candle Spring Evening
Since ancient times, there have been many red faces and thin lives, and few heroes have lived a long life.
China's talented athlete suffered a cardiac arrest during a live broadcast of the match.
Later, after rescue efforts failed, he was finally declared dead.
The young life is finally frozen at the age of 17.
In the rainy season, 17 years old is the best age for life.
So far, netizens still have a lot of questions about this.
As a national-level elite athlete, how could there be an accident in the competition.
In today's fast-paced life.
How do young people have different pressures from the older generation?
01, 17 years old, he is a genius boy
Zhang Zhijie's 17-year-old is not the same as the 17-year-old of most ordinary people.
At a young age, he represented China in competitions.
The last time I saw such a good and promising athlete.
From the badminton court alone, that person is still Lin Dan.
Zhang Zhijie's first appearance was in the 2022 National U Series Badminton Competition.
At the age of 15, he won the men's singles U15-17 finals.
Then he began the "open life" of winning awards all the way.
At the age of 16, he won two consecutive championships in Group B of the National Youth Badminton Championships.
He won both the men's singles championship and the men's team championship.
At the age of 17, he participated in the Youth Badminton International Tournament held in the Netherlands for the first time.
The strong Zhang Zhijie went all the way to win the men's singles championship.
On March 28 of the same year, at the National Youth Badminton Championships.
Zhang Zhijie once again won the championship of the men's team in Group B and proved himself.
Lin Dan has been in contact with badminton since he was 5 years old.
At the age of 12, he shined in the national junior competition and won the men's singles championship.
At the age of 15, Lin Dan, who had spent three years in the People's Liberation Army, was selected.
Participated in the Asian Youth Championship as a player of the Chinese team.
However, it is regrettable that the defeat in the final has frustrated Lin Dan's confidence.
After being reprimanded by the coach, he introspected and returned to the youth team after three months of adjustment.
In 2000, Lin Dan was 17 years old.
He became a member of the Chinese national team.
Lin Dan shined in 2002, when he was almost 19 years old.
At the Open Tournament in South Korea.
Lin Dan, who represents the Chinese team, defeated Sun Shengmo and became the champion.
In August of the same year, Lin Dan ascended to the No. 1 position in the International Badminton Federation rankings.
But throughout Lin Dan's contact with badminton began to his 17 years old.
The number of awards is very small.
Although he entered the national team at a young age of 17.
But there weren't many achievements before that.
Lin Dan is now known as "Super Dan".
The accolades received are unparalleled.
But on the other hand, Zhang Zhijie has won numerous awards before he entered the national team.
His 17 years old is obviously more amazing than Lin Dan's 17 years old.
Just like Lin Dan entered the national team at the age of 17.
If Zhang Zhijie had no unexpected circumstances, he should have successfully entered the national team.
02, the short life of a talented player
On February 18, 2023, Zhang Zhijie stood on the podium and the audience cheered for him.
As a badminton player, he won his first championship.
His talent was recognized, and his efforts were borne off.
Born in Jiaxing, Zhejiang, he began to get into badminton in kindergarten.
Later, because of his talent, he was sent to Jiaxing Children's Sports College.
Zhang Zhijie, who performed well in school, was sent to the Zhejiang Provincial Team for development.
On November 8, 2023, at the National Student Sports Badminton Competition.
With the Jinan team's Zhang Zhijie winning the championship again, the audience cheered.
In the various competitions in which he participated,
The only defeat was the runner-up at this year's Badminton Team Championship Finals.
However, such a talented player.
But in yesterday's game, he suffered a cardiac arrest and died after rescue efforts failed.
In his short career of 17 years, he has won numerous championships.
There is no more life to prove his strength and talent.
That is, Zhang Zhijie's sudden death caused by cardiac arrest,
Let netizens find out that this is not just the regrettable death of an athlete,
Perhaps there are some things we need to reflect on and improve in the sports medical system.
03, behind the fall of genius
At the Asian Youth Championships,
Zhang Zhijie suddenly fell to the ground and began to convulse.
The unexpected situation stunned everyone for a moment, and the experienced coach wanted to go up to check the situation for the first time.
But because it was a game, the referee stopped the coach's behavior at the first time.
After a brief hesitation, the coach decided to prioritize the safety of his players.
After stepping forward to check, the coach found that something was wrong with Zhang Zhijie.
Observing that Zhang Zhijie was no longer conscious, the coach immediately waved his hand and called the medical team.
But the medical team that was waiting on the sidelines of the game did not arrive at the first time.
It was almost a minute or so before it was late.
I don't know if the incident was too sudden, or if Zhang Zhijie's situation is very unoptimistic.
The medical team did not take first aid measures against Zhang Zhijie.
Instead, he was carried directly to the hospital on a stretcher.
Indonesian organizers said they put Zhang Zhijie in an ambulance within 2 minutes.
But it also takes time on the way to the hospital.
At eleven o'clock in the evening, the news came from the hospital: "The rescue failed. ”
Afterwards, the event issued a notice that Zhang Zhijie died of cardiac arrest.
However, it is not explained why the sudden arrest and why the rescue is ineffective.
Although the official announcement was so, those who watched the live broadcast did not approve of this result.
First of all, the referee prevented the coach from coming forward to check for the first time.
Secondly, the medical staff did not take first aid measures and wasted the golden rescue time.
In the end, it was officially emphasized that it was delivered to the car in two minutes.
These three reasons are in the eyes of netizens:
"It is that the rescue is not effective, delaying the best rescue time, and deliberately shirking responsibility."
Netizens obviously have relevant professionals.
It is believed that there is no AED first aid equipment on the field.
Otherwise, taking first aid measures may not have the same outcome.
After learning that Zhang Zhijie died after the rescue failed, his sister was also heartbroken.
But in the face of what has happened, any accusations appear powerless.
After all, the deceased will not return, and the loved ones left behind are only grief.
As an international event.
The preparation of the venue and props must be complete.
The means to deal with emergencies should also be prepared.
It's just a matter of time, or maybe the medical conditions near the stadium aren't up to standard.
It's not a satisfying answer at all, it's more like a shirk.
This accident should also make the country pay attention to the medical problems of going out to play.
If you are in a country where medical conditions are relatively inadequate,
A national medical team should be accompanied to avoid similar situations.
And what we regret the most is Zhang Zhijie's pre-match interview.
Zhang Zhijie, who was in front of the microphone, wanted to prove himself with his results and competitions.
But no one expected that what was waiting for was not to prove themselves, but to be unexpected.
Looking at Zhang Zhijie who was radiant at that time, he couldn't help but feel a faint pain in his heart.
We are saddened by the fall of genius.
It was the growing pressure of young people that finally crushed them.
04. Wake up the alarm for young people
Zhang Zhijie's death not only shows us the importance of first aid.
It also shows us the "vulnerability" of young people today.
Times are moving rapidly.
Convenience in life is all about saving time.
But as it stands, people have less free time.
Ordinary people face the fatigue of daily work.
When I got home, I only had a few hours to spare in the evening.
Most people want to be entertained and want to do what they want to do.
It is necessary to minimize sleep time.
This is true for ordinary people.
This is especially true as an athlete who trains at high intensity.
Sleep less, leaving the body in a tense state most of the time,
In the end, it is easy to increase the burden on the body.
This leads to ischemia of the heart or brain, inadequate oxygen supply, and cardiac arrest.
In layman's terms, it is sudden death.
Sudden death of young people is now not uncommon.
Whether it's stressful at work or stressful in life,
Or is it an irregular life caused by smoking, drinking, and staying up late,
or arrhythmias caused by strenuous exercise,
These can all be causes of cardiac arrest.
Just like Zhang Zhijie,
After cardiac arrest, blood flow to the brain is abruptly interrupted.
Within ten seconds, you will lose consciousness.
This is accompanied by a brief convulsion of the body, followed by a complete loss of consciousness.
Cardiac arrest is not out of the question if first aid can be taken within a short period of time.
But once the best time for treatment is missed,
The survival rate for cardiac arrest is almost zero.
Even this situation in the world competition has not been able to save it,
What if this happens to us?
Most young people work outside the home and rent on their own.
There are very few people who live together, and there are no people around who do not know each other.
In the event of a cardiac arrest, no one can call an ambulance in the first place.
What's more, people now have no concept of first aid at all.
Even if there are people around you at the time of cardiac arrest,
It is also difficult to take first aid measures in the first place.
Therefore, Zhang Zhijie's death is not only a wake-up call for medical treatment in the sports world.
It is also a wake-up call for today's young people.
Whether it's living on your own or with your family.
Maintaining a reasonable and healthy routine is the most important thing.
"The body is the capital of the revolution"
At 17 years old, he should have a great future.
If he can continue his badminton career,
It is not an exaggeration that he will inevitably become the second Lin Dan, or surpass.
But no one can predict the unexpected.
Cardiac arrest is a sudden burst of stress that has accumulated over time.
If you don't pay attention to your physical health,
Then death may be quietly approaching.
Faced with Zhang Zhijie's results.
We are sorry that there is one less genius in the world.
They will even be outraged by the level of medical care of the tournament side.
But it is even more important to be vigilant.
Nowadays, people should put their lives in perspective.
Blindly involuting will not make a difference.
Enjoying lying flat isn't really a joy either.
Only "put the bowl of water on the table of mentality".
Having your own goals and enjoying the process is the real life.
