"Control the snow, jump into the air, flip for two weeks, turn 1620." The concise description of the words in the news reports made her scream loudly, put her hands around her head and cover her cheeks after a short three-second landing in the air, as if she could not believe she had done all this. It fully shows the valiant and heroic posture of this concerned and beloved girl.

The unprecedented attention to the snow events of the Winter Olympic Games driven by various youth idols comes from the fact that the pattern of Chinese Winter Olympic events, which was once "strong in ice and weak in snow", has been broken by the good news that the whole project has basically been participated in this year's Beijing Winter Olympic Games. The Silver Snake Dance inside and outside the Great Wall, the wild snow wax Mercedes-Benz, and the handsome and cool skills fully displayed by athletes from all over the world are an eye-opener for close-up viewers and memorable for those who have witnessed through the image.

The Olympic rings, the "Beijing 2022" logo, the warm winter sun in North China, the beautiful posture of athletes, rich expressions of pride, coupled with the composition of the natural integration of people and the environment, the atmosphere created by athletes and spectators. The information in the photo allows us to know more about each snow project through dynamic images, and at the same time, we can revisit the charm of that moment, and turn those dazzling leaps, smart flips, gallop snakes, and fast winds into wonderful still signs, which makes people imagine.
