中国短道速滑运动员曲春雨、范可新、张雨婷、武大靖、任子威2月5日获得中国体育健儿参加北京冬奥会的首枚金牌。中共中央政治局委员、国务院副总理孙春兰代表党中央、国务院向中国体育代表团发来贺电。

Chinese Vice Premier Sun Chunlan, on behalf of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the State Council, congratulated the country's Olympic delegation on Sunday for winning gold in the short-track speed skating 2,000m mixed team relay event at Beijing 2022.Qu Chunyu, Fan Kexin, Zhang Yuting, Wu Dajing and Ren Ziwei claimed China's first gold medal at Beijing 2022 on Saturday.

“爆竹声中一岁除，春风送暖入屠苏。”中国刚刚迎来农历虎年。虎象征着力量、勇敢、无畏，祝愿奥运健儿像虎一样充满力量、创造佳绩。我相信，在大家共同努力下，北京冬奥会一定会成为简约、安全、精彩的奥运盛会而载入史册。

To borrow a Chinese poetic line, "Out goes the old year with the sound of firecrackers; in comes the new with the warmth of wine and spring breeze." China has just entered the Year of the Tiger according to the lunar calendar. Tiger is a symbol of strength, courage and fearlessness. I wish all Olympic athletes excellent performance with the strength of the tiger. I am confident that with the joint efforts of us all, Beijing 2022 will surely go down in history as a streamlined, safe and splendid Olympic Games.
