Qianjin and Shash. What nicknames the Chinese gave Shcherbakova and Trusova and why

At the Beijing Olympics, Anna Shcherbakova took “gold” in the personal championship, Alexander Trusova – “silver”, and Kamila Valieva became a champion in a team tournament. And they conquered the hearts of the Chinese. After that, Chinese Internet users came up with new names to the girls that correspond to their characters.

Why Valieva is a hexagon warrior

Kamil Valiev was called the Iron Tatar princess and compared with the most titled player in table tennis – Ma Lun. Camila, like Ma Luna, is called a “hexagon warrior” (the athlete playing table tennis should adhere to the perfect balance of six qualities – strength, speed, supply, defense, skill and experience). Valieva also demonstrates all these qualities in figure skating.

Shcherbakova conquered the Chinese with worthy education

Anna Shcherbakova is called “Miss Stability” or “Treasure”. Qianjin from Chinese is still translated as invaluable. The word is also used to designate the daughter from a wealthy or famous family. Many are delighted with the manners and worthy behavior of Shcherbakova, which speaks of her good education.

If you disassemble the hieroglyphs “Cian” and “Jin” separately, then they mean “thousand” and “gold”. In the situation with the skater, this may mean that she wins a lot of gold medals. Anna Shcherbakova, according to users of Chinese social networks, embodies the image of an ideal girl – she is beautiful, elegant, modest, sweet and at the same time strong in spirit.

Trusova – New Empress

Alexander Trusov is called a Russian rocket or just a “shash”. “Shasha” is consonant with the name Sasha, apparently the inhabitants of China to pronounce the name of Alexandra Trusova is conveniently like that. But “Shash” is also a salsa dance, and in the local dialect of the city of Lanzhou, Gansu means “beauty”.

Chinese audience admires the fact that Trusova of the first of women perfectly performed five quadruple jumps in the program, as well as her ability to show spectacular images on ice. For the implementation of complex elements, Trusov is also called Empress Sha.
