When it comes to Shui Qingxia and the Chinese team she leads.

, the first four words that come to mind for most of the country:
"Clanging Roses."
But in fact, in an early interview, Shui Qingxia had modestly stated that she was not one of the "clanging roses".
"I'm actually not part of the 'Clash of the Roses', just the older generation of the

players."

It's clear that the word "Rose" weighs a lot in her eyes and can only belong to her history-making teammates.
That's right. That's a China.

It has also inspired a large number of

The girls are great examples of this.
In February 2022, while the firecrackers of the Lunar New Year are rumbling and the world's attention is focused on the grand opening of the Beijing Winter Olympics, the China

At one point, they were two goals down, but under head coach Shui Qingxia's calm scheduling, China

The team rose to the occasion:
In the 67th minute, substitute Zhang Linyan made a point, and Tang Jiali hit the penalty; in the 72nd minute, Tang Jiali sent a wonderful pass after being surrounded by people, and Zhang Linyan leaped up in front of the goal to break the header; in the 93rd minute, China

Playing with smooth coordination under Wang Shanshan's steering, Xiao Yuyi strongly ate her opponent's hammer!
Make it two and three! Amazing reversal!
The whistle blew, and Shui Qingxia, who is the coach, raised her arms and cheered. This cheer, for decades of perseverance, for the sharpness after the trials and tribulations, but also for the glory of the resounding rose bloomed again.
And this persisting, grinding, never-giving-up
women's soccer
The spirit is deeply felt by a Chinese brand, as it has always been their credo.
Coincidentally, people give
women's soccer
The cheers have not yet died down, but the old Chinese company is also "like them", in a low-profile glory, the name of the brand - White Elephant.
After "315" in 2022, White Elephant was spontaneously pushed to the "front of the shelf" by netizens because it has always kept the bowl of "Chinese noodles" firmly in its own hands, because of the good quality that has never changed, and because of the style of doing things in a practical manner and seeing little hype. "Shelf front". For a time, white elephant sold out of the news in the major social platform screen. White elephant years of cultivation also finally let this national brand get due recognition.
But behind the accolades is the fact that white elephants are "like them," like the
women's soccer
Like, the rewards of giving your all to a cause you're committed to.
From this perspective, white elephants and Chinese
women's soccer
It is a representation of Chinese quality in different dimensions and a fit of Chinese spirit in the same perspective.
plowing and weeding
For most people, the outcome is a standard of evaluation, not a continuation after some kind of process.
This mindset often makes people forget the plowing and perseverance behind the glory.
Plowing and perseverance are easier said than done.
This difficulty is like a long break in a beautiful piece of music, like an abrupt silence in a great movie.
There is no doubt that this taste, China
women's soccer
and white elephants have experienced.
In the decade of the new century, because of the lack of a winning record, China
women's soccer
The glory was once sealed. In the once unrivaled Asian arena, championships have become a bubble that needs to be augmented by luck. So in the opinion of many, China during that period of time

Throwing away what was once

Spirit, neither clang nor rose. As Wang Frost said in an interview:
"Competitive sport is brutal, and the only way to go about talking about it is to stand on the highest podiums

Spirit."
However, this does not mean that
women's soccer
People don't make an effort.
In 2001, Shui Qingxia took off her sneakers and put on her coaching uniform.
Having just made the transition, it's always a good idea to start at the grassroots level. In Shanghai

China

youth team and the Shanghai Junior Sports School, Shui Qingxia has been plowing through the most straightforward youth training stage for more than a decade, clearly seeing the

Problems faced by the movement:
"On the one hand the first line

The movement really isn't growing very favorably."
Obviously, at the time, she knew that this was not an industry that would reap quick rewards.
Even after becoming a Shanghai

commander-in-chief
But in the country
women's soccer
With the reality of having few league fans and being remembered almost exclusively come tournament time, things have been tough for Shui Qingxia and the girls.
However, during this time, Shui Qingxia did not complain or get discouraged, but kept insisting and polishing her "inner strength". In Shanghai
women's soccer
, she has also experienced failure, and frustration, and even controversy.
But all these experiences have become paving stones on her way to Shanghai.
women's soccer
became a dominant all-conference performer under her leadership.
At the same point in time, white elephants are also "like them", like Shui Qingxia, in silent persistence.
During 26 years, they insist on upgrading the products and equipment, upgrading the environmental protection level to the highest level; insist on zero accident of food safety for 26 years. At the same time, White Elephant also actively fulfills social responsibility, donating more than 50 million yuan to various charitable organizations and disaster areas. Though everything they do is seldom seen on the internet.
Finally, "like them," with their cultivation and perseverance, White Elephant and Shui Qingxia were rewarded at the same moment.
blossom
"Through all these years, we got back the spirit that belongs to the 'Clash of the Roses' and for us, it's all about rebooting."
After defeating the South Korean team, the "Clanging Roses" made a strong comeback, and this time Shui Qingxia can honorably take over the four-letter word from her former teammates.
For without her, no rose will ever bloom again.
But for this honor, water Qingxia is very indifferent: "I first point is to do a good job it, reputation is not the scope of consideration, I think you go really sink your heart into doing something, you will certainly get the corresponding reward. "
Obviously, neither Shui Qingxia nor her disciples saw this bloom as a perfect ending.
For today's "Roses".

The championship only means they're back to square one.

Players have embarked on the road to stay in the world with one goal in mind:
"Come back a little stronger than when you went out."
In this past year, Wang Frost went to the U.S., Zhang Linyan went to Switzerland, and players such as Tang Jiali, Li Mengwen, Shen Menglu, and Shen Mengyu all made great strides in various European competitions.
Zhang Linyan even became the center
national soccer team
The first Chinese player in the history of the ball to win the MVP of an overseas league!
In Shui Qingxia's opinion, this is all beneficial: "The psychological level has a greater improvement, technical words may be used more reasonably, because the opponent gives you a lot of pressure, your decision-making to be faster, this point they through the stay in the ocean, can improve the independent thinking ability, the ability to communicate with peers. "
At the same time, Shui Qingxia seized every opportunity to take the team to the more competitive European fields for training, where they ran on the turf of the Iberian Peninsula with the Irish

Against, playing Real Betis.
"Play this kind of game more often, even if you lose first, and know where to lose."
As Shui Qingxia said in an interview, China

The girls are aware of the additional difficulties and challenges that come with overseas stays and training, but they also understand that stepping out of their comfort zone is the only way to build on their Asian championships.
And with China, which continues to push its limits

Likewise, after the explosion of popularity of the white elephant also continued for the brand quality of the persistent pursuit of innovation, will be the sign of the national brand to polish more bright.
It is this temperamental sympathy that makes the white elephant and the Chinese
women's soccer
of this handholding seems even more valuable.
The phrase "Eat Chinese noodles, support the Chinese team." It speaks to the simplest feelings of the hearts of many people for the Clanging Roses.
Unlike the traditional business cooperation, White Elephant is cooperating with China's

The ball's youth training cause to add a new firewood. For this "new firewood", water Qingxia said: "White Elephant 26 years to adhere to this brand, but also the most critical point is that they have been adhering to the innovation, solid products, so that the people of the country to rest assured that I think all the other industries, including the
women's soccer
, and should learn from such a model as well. "
