She is very hardworking.
00:01
She is a very hardworking child.
00:02
She is very hardworking.
00:03
She is really hardworking.
00:05
She is too.
00:06
I am not as hardworking as her.
00:07
She is really hardworking.
00:09
No, you are too.
00:10
Both of them are Chinese diving queens
00:16
and both of them are teenage sensations.
00:19
And they are the best friends,
00:21
closest partners
00:22
and the toughest rival to each other.
00:25
And at the 1980s Asian Games,
00:27
they both shine again.
00:29
So what is the meaning and feeling
00:33
of the gold medal
00:34
you got at the Asian Games?
00:36
For me,
00:38
it is a step up in my life.
00:41
And this Asian Games
00:43
is also a mid-term exam for the Olympics.
00:45
So it is also a test for us.
00:48
What kind of person
00:51
are you to each other?
00:53
He is a very introverted person.
00:55
And he is very talkative
00:58
in front of the camera.
00:59
But I am not talkative in front of the camera.
01:01
So you are different
01:04
in front of the camera
01:06
and in real life, right?
01:07
You are more cheerful.
01:09
Yes.
01:10
I think his most shining part
01:12
is his innocence.
01:16
In his daily life,
01:17
whether it is training or competition,
01:21
he is very cute and lively.
01:23
And he is also very cheerful.
01:25
I hope he will always have a childlike heart.
01:28
So do you think
01:29
you have influenced each other
01:31
in the years
01:32
you have been training together
01:33
and being partners in competitions?
01:35
I think I will definitely
01:37
be influenced by him a little.
01:40
I am kidding.
01:40
But with my own strength,
01:43
I can pull the female standard line
01:44
to 430.
01:46
What about Luoluo?
01:49
What have you learned
01:52
from her
01:53
in these years?
01:55
I don't give up.
01:56
I don't give up.
01:58
She is pretty.
02:01
She is pretty.
02:04
She is very charming.
02:06
She is charming, beautiful
02:07
and doesn't give up.
02:09
And
02:12
in training and competition,
02:15
she also works very hard.
02:17
She is a hard-working kid.
02:19
Yes, you guys.
02:20
She works very hard.
02:21
She really works hard.
02:22
She does.
02:23
I don't work hard like her.
02:25
She really works hard.
02:26
No, you too.
02:28
I believe you.
02:29
You two are like a couple.
02:31
Athletes
02:32
always have an undisputed heart.
02:34
It's all fake
02:36
to say who doesn't want this champion.
02:37
So everyone will work hard for it
02:39
and fight for it.
02:40
And then
02:42
keep urging themselves to improve.
02:44
So I think
02:46
in such a competitive environment,
02:48
it also brings us
02:49
an unforgettable life experience.
02:52
And
02:55
with her encouragement,
02:58
I think I'm also improving.
