WEIBO UPDATES
2012 London Olympics

*Sorry for the late updates. Thank you so much for karlospkc89 for translating.

Zhang Jike's Weibo Updates

August 2 2012

*Before the finals game

I couldn't believe all these if it was 3 years ago，I got all this step-by-step。Since I have achieved it，I should relax and enjoy the process like nothing is a big deal. If I believe in myself, nothing can stop me.

*I don't know who he is referring to in here but I have a theory that maybe it was the 8 badminton players who got disqualified for fixing the game (2 from the Chinese team) but i'm not really sure

This kind of people is worthless to be respected. I can't believe that he could say such thing，totally ridiculous。You don't see how honored your team is，and even that was your teammate！Competing in sports is a tough，but it's ok！Able to pick it up and drop it down is what people expect from us. Maybe today doesn't belong to you, but future will be. LETS GO!

August 4 2012

*After winning Gold

Please permit me to speak how I felt from my heart these two days：I am not talking about myself，but my good brother that we 've been fighting together, Wang Hao！Long time ago people said you had a tough heart，I couldn't really feel that. But when you stood in Olympics' final for your 3rd time, everyone is so proud of you. Your courage your toughness is well worth for all of us to learn. The moment when I achieve victory and high-five and hug with you， what I saw, is the smile with confidence and the calmness. The moment when you salute the crowd in military style，really truly deserves our respect. Your whole entire being and your selfless act is what we need to learn from you; that's why I don't think there is a loser for this match. Your whole behavior is far worthy than getting a grand-slam！The country needs you, this team needs you. Be the forever strongest.

We all trust you that you are the best. The two brothers who are replacing you had finished our last quest，Lets go！As soon as you don't retire from the Chinese Table Tennis Team，you will always be the leader in our team in our heart. At last，I hope everyone cheers for us, believe we can win the team champion！！！
