China Digital Times has collected the following representative messages. What do you think of this?
@张小姨_: Not a Chinese Canadian player, but a Canadian player.
@小鱼儿的圈圈: Don’t be Chinese, people are abandoned.
@Aglaia_V: Patriarchal patriarchy has lost all this kind of genius, and there is still a face to mention.
@叽里咕噜呱里啦: She was abandoned when she was 1 year old, and was later adopted by her adoptive parents to Canada, which means that Canada is fine. The significance of this news is to tell us that race will not limit the performance of Chinese swimming events. We must have confidence and nothing more.
@Ahri111: If you win the championship, you are of Chinese origin, and if you are ashamed, you are Canadian.
@VanessaCheongMY: After leaving the motherland, you are nothing? Do not! After leaving the motherland, she is the world champion!
@Dayo_Moses: The story of the abandoned Chinese Jiangxi girl winning the Olympic champion on behalf of Canada I really like it. Let the world know what misogyny, abandoning, and killing women are. In the 21st century, in this country, many girls and babies have been abandoned because of the tradition of patriarchal sons and the family planning policy.
@Dayo_Moses: Regarding this matter, I checked the comments on Weibo, Hupu, and almost no one asked whether it was true or false, and no one said that it was a rumor from foreign forces. It means that no matter what position you usually have, you know that there is nothing wrong with this matter. It’s so doubtful, I know that these things have indeed happened and continue to happen, a kind of tacit understanding of the depression that goes without saying.
@HopesoGlobalist: Jiangxi native parents are preparing to take back custody and immigrate to Canada.
@龙猫自在: Looking for “pro”, let her be sucked blood by her biological parents? Use bonuses to support the parents who abandoned her? Buy a house for your baby brother and baby brother to get married?
@麻生斑餅: People are abandoned, okay! Find a P’s pro!
Idle person soul: Olympic champions can encounter abandoned babies in our country with a small probability.
@小口丸酱: Don’t touch porcelain and say it’s Chinese. They are Canadians, and they really have nothing to do with us. But I sincerely thank the kind couple, they deserve to have such a good daughter. The players in our own country are also great. I will definitely win the championship in the future.
@武康庭: If anyone comes out to recognize their relatives, everyone will scold them to death!
@眼睡的猫: People did not pick up a baby, but a little life that her parents threw away like garbage, and then cultivated her own baby.
@EddieJia777: After leaving the motherland, you can be anything!
@LumosAll: The media is not ashamed, we also think it is ashamed. Chinese parents have abandoned their homes, and foreign parents have raised them so well. We are not ashamed. Never try to find the underworld of your biological parents.
@SharkyMon8964: I want to see the warm confession. “You have suffered, my parents were forced to forgive us at the beginning. The family really can’t afford it. Your brother hasn’t bought a house yet when he gets married…”
@ZhaoMingObserve: Look at McNeill’s facial expressions, full of sunshine and self-confidence, typical body language features that have been well-educated in the West, but mainland children do not. So it’s not about race, not about physical hardware, but software, it’s education, thought, soul…
@欣-止如水-Appropriate: A genius can only become a talent in the right country.
@我是小臭居: If she had lived in China for a lifetime, she wouldn’t even touch the swimming pool. What kind of family can abandon the biological daughter!
