On the last day of their visit to Hong Kong, the national team athletes went to Victoria Park and the Victoria Pavilion to demonstrate sports, and even showed off a number of difficult moves, mingling with the audience. One of the sports demonstrations was held at the Victoria Pavilion in Wan Chai, including badminton, gymnastics, and table tennis. As soon as the athletes appeared on the stage, the Victoria Pavilion cheered continuously. Liu Yang, the gold medalist in the men’s rings of the Paris Olympics gymnastics, took the lead and performed the “inverted cross”, the signature “tilted head kill” and the “cross hang”. The stability was to remind the audience that it was not a frozen picture; Zou Jingyuan, the gold medalist in the parallel bars, guided young Hong Kong athletes. Huang Yaqiong, Zheng Siwei, Jia Yifan and Chen Qingchen, who won the mixed doubles and women’s doubles badminton championships respectively, “played against each other”. Zheng Siwei was responsible for “killing the wave”, and Jia Yifan and Chen Qingchen defended. Huang Yaqiong’s “net block” won the screams of the audience. The national team also played with Hong Kong athletes and the audience. Liu Qingyi, who won the third place in the individual breakdancing event added in the Paris Olympics, also showed her skills. The finale was a table tennis performance. Chen Meng and Wang Manyu of the national team competed with Du Kaiqin and Li Haoqing of the Hong Kong team. Ma Long, a veteran of four dynasties, played against the big brother of the Hong Kong team, Huang Zhenting. Ma Long stood outside the court and received the same wave. A spectator became a “lucky person” and was taught to play table tennis by Chen Meng. Ma Long and Chen Meng thanked the Hong Kong citizens for their support. Ma Long, a six-time Olympic table tennis gold medalist, said: “I am very happy to come to Hong Kong this time. I can feel the enthusiasm of Hong Kong citizens for us. I feel that everyone is paying more and more attention to sports and table tennis. I like it more and more. I am also influenced by us and the continuous improvement of the Hong Kong team’s performance. It also affects many young people. I hope they will continue to persevere.” Chen Meng, the gold medalist of the women’s singles table tennis at the Paris Olympics, said: “I am very happy to come to Hong Kong again after many years. I like Hong Kong and the audience friends who watched our performance on the spot.” Cheung Ka-long, the gold medalist of men’s foil of the Hong Kong team, thanked the national team through video and called on citizens to support the country and Hong Kong athletes. The whole performance lasted about two hours.
