Ice and fire combine to stir the emotions
Opening extravaganza 'perfectly interprets' theme of the Games, report Zhou Huiying and Tian Xuefei.
Sui Wenjing, who won the pairs figure skating gold medal at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Games, became a member of the directorial team at the Harbin event.
"After the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Games, I enrolled in the Beijing Dance Academy to study choreography and directing, aspiring to become a director," said Sui.
"The experience of this opening ceremony has greatly encouraged me, because the innovative fusion made me believe that figure skating can be experimental and presented in more scenarios."
"In the future, I hope to continue creating more works using figure skating as a medium," she said. "Whether at large-scale events or within my professional field, I aim to diversify the platforms upon which figure skating is performed, and spread more Chinese culture."
