At the post-match press conference, Liu Shiwen said: "When I first arrived in Ordos, there was a high reaction, and I was unwell and had nosebleeds for three consecutive days before the start of the game. Now the nosebleed is much better, thanks to the timely help of the local organizing committee and the hospital, and I am very grateful to the warm city of Ordos. ”

In addition to Lin Gaoyuan and Liu Shiwen who have many good impressions of Ordos, many contestants from all over the country are full of praise for the warmth of the city.

Sun Wen of the Jiangsu team said: "The atmosphere is very good, and the facilities and equipment at the competition site are very complete. ”

Wang Xiaotong of the Shandong team said: "The people of Ordos are very enthusiastic, and they have done a very good job in ensuring food, housing, transportation and other aspects. ”

He Zhuojia of the Hebei team said: "Ordos is not at all like the city that hosted a large-scale table tennis event for the first time, and it is very mature in all aspects, which makes me feel deeply. ”

……

Although some athletes suffered from mild altitude sickness, the all-round service guarantee of Warm City, as well as the boundless warmth of hospitality and boundless love, were enough to comfort the soul and heal people's hearts.

Why do the players call for the warm city again and again? In fact, this is inseparable from the rich experience of hosting the competition and the strong sports atmosphere of Warm City.

From the 15th Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region Games to the 2024 National Road Cycling Championships, from "Starry Sky Ema" to "Grassland Village Platoon", in recent years, there have been many sports events in the warm city, not only to "come from near and far", but also to create a never-ending stage, so that more people can see that the "hot" of the warm city has no "off-season".

Of course, a great sporting event can attract people, but to really retain people, it needs to be supported by long-lasting "user feedback". To put it simply, the significance of a sports event lies not only in the event itself, but also in the experience brought by various supporting services. Ordos actively responds to the national strategy of national fitness, shapes the cityscape with the power of sports, improves the quality of life of citizens, and forms a positive cycle between event services and tourists' experience feedback, so as to promote comprehensive economic and social development, and integrate sports into every vein of urban development.

The mighty river, the vast desert, and the abundant grassland, when the light of national table tennis shines in the warm city, this is not only a mutual achievement of the event and the city, but also a beautiful two-way rush, vividly interpreting the profound connotation of sports empowering the high-quality development of the city.
