Snacks,game machines and medical services have poured into the family of Quan Hongchan,the 14-year-old gold medalist at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics,after the story of the talented diver striving to win the Games to support her low-income family and earn money for the treatment of her ill mother deeply touched us.

As the youngest athlete among China’s delegation(代表团),Quan amazed audiences around the world with her surprisingly perfect performance in the women’s 10-meter platform.

Quan immediately became one of the most-discussed Olympic athletes on Chinese social media and a“sweetheart”of many people not only for the snack-loving girl's likeable persona(形象),but also for her maturity and good heart after it came to light she was supporting a low-income family of seven.Quan said she wanted to“make a lot of money”to cure her mom's disease and visit an amusement park,which she has never been to.Eventually,Quan’s efforts have paid off and her dream is coming true.

A hospital in her hometown Zhanjiang,South China's Guangdong Province announced that it would provide a full range of medical services for her mother.The hospital officials said they were proud of the Olympic champion and were more than willing to help out her family.Several amusement parks,zoos said they would offer lifetime free pass for Quan and her family.A local businessman even offered 200,000 yuan in cash to Quan’s father,but was declined.

The passion for the young champion’s family,however,has appeared to become overly heated after some fans and Internet celebrities tracked down to her village home,causing local traffic chaos.Reports claimed some live-streamers even intend to climb up the trees planted at her house and take a jackfruit as souvenir.
