Today, Du Jianxiang, the interpreter of the Chinese men's Asian Games team, published a post on social media summarizing his two-year experience spent with the team and hoping that fans would give more support and encouragement to Chinese soccer.
With China's men's soccer Asian Games team going down 0-2 to South Korea in the quarterfinals, the team's mission has come to an end. After the team was disbanded in Hangzhou, translator Du Jianxiang summarized the post on social media, writing:
In the next two years, working with a team, struggling together, from the first time we met in Hangzhou training to all the players we live together now, as well as knowing a group of good brothers! They are a group of brothers who don't give up easily and stick together, no matter what difficulties they encounter! Likewise, I wish all of you to stay optimistic and positive in the days to come, to have the vitality that we have now, and to bravely pursue your goals and dreams! I hope that the fans can be more supportive and encouraging of soccer, and less mocking and abusive! [Greetings]
Thank you very much to all the players, coaches and my dear companions for their support and care! My career as an interpreter is also coming to a perfect end, but let's continue it when I come back and we meet next time!
