At the invitation of the China Children and Teenagers' Fund (CCTF), Sui Wenjing, China's Olympic figure skating champion, visited female high school students at a Spring Bud class in Xunwu, a county of South China's Jiangxi province, on March 2.

Sui won a pair of golds with her partner Han Cong on the penultimate competition day at the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, becoming the second Chinese skaters to have won the Olympic gold after Shen Xue and Zhao Hongbo in 2010.

During the visit, Sui put on a school uniform which brought herself closer to local students after taking part in a game with them. She spoke with them about her growth stories and responded to their problems and questions.

Sui talked with them about how to better alleviate immense pressure from huge academic workloads, advised them to get fully relaxed and rise to challenges by properly resorting to crying, and joined them to watch her video clips at the competition venues.

Sui stressed that they shouldn't follow conventional norms and they should endeavor to create a colorful life.

At last, Sui also sent to them her autobiography, hoping that they can make personal dreams come true just like she did.
