The Hong Kong team's badminton mixed doubles duo Deng Junwen and Xie Yingxue reached the top four in the Tokyo Olympics, setting the Hong Kong team's best mixed doubles record.
The two said on a commercial TV program today (11th) that after playing in the first event, they noticed that many Hong Kong citizens gathered in shopping malls to watch live broadcasts to cheer, and some people gathered for them on social platforms to bring them motivation.
Regarding the measures announced by the government to speed up the construction of a new building for the sports college, Xie Yingxue pointed out that the current sports academy's coaches and therapists are also insufficient, and it is hoped that more staff can be hired in the future.
Deng Junwen pointed out that the air-conditioning wind direction in the badminton hall of the sports academy will affect the direction of badminton. Therefore, most of the air conditioners must be turned off during training, which will cause the venue to burn.

Xie Yingxue, who served as the flag bearer for the Hong Kong team's opening ceremony at the Tokyo Olympics, said in a commercial TV program today that she was nervous because of the game the day after the opening, which affected her sleep quality on the opening night.
She pointed out that after she played in the first event, she received a lot of cheering voices on social platforms. Only then did she know that many Hong Kong citizens followed the event and supported them, which made her feel pressure and at the same time brought motivation.

She pointed out that when she first formed a mixed doubles combination with Deng Junwen, it took about half a year to run in. She praised Deng Junwen for his modest learning and continuous improvement.
Deng Junwen, who attended the same program, thanked the coach Chen Kang for his patience in training the two and encouraged him from time to time.
He recalled that when he first partnered with Xie Yingxue, he had little experience and could not handle many things, but after running in, the two communication methods became more and more gentle.
Xie Yingxue: Insufficient instructors and therapists in sports institutes expect to hire more staff
Xie Yingxue believes that there are not enough coaches and therapists in sports institutes. She took a badminton team with more than 30 people as an example. There are currently only two coaches. When they prepare for the Olympics, the coaches can only focus on training the athletes who will play and pay attention to other players. Less, and Chen Kang will return to Taiwan after the Eastern Olympics, making the problem of insufficient coaching even more serious.
