But in the eyes of Zhang Lin, an increasingly mature Chinese swimmers, "the biggest opponent is himself!" Zhang Lin, who wore the new Asian Games delegation dress yesterday, was low-key but confident.

Despite the two Olympic Games Champion Wu Minxia and He Chong are left and right, but Zhang Lin, a handsome swimmer and a handsome swimmer, is still the focal point of the China Asian Games delegation's ceremonial costume conference yesterday morning. After winning the Olympic silver medal in 2008 and breaking the world record of Hackett in 2009 and winning the world championships, Zhang Lin has become a big star who can be compared with the "flying man" Liu Xiang. The difference is that Liu Xiang is going to attack three consecutive championships in the Guangzhou Asian Games, and Zhang Lin has yet to win a gold medal for the Asian Games.

The Asian Games in Guangzhou do not have Zhang Lin's best 800 meter freestyle. He will attend 200 individual events of 200 meters, 400 meters and 1500 meters, as well as a collective project of 4 * 200 meters relay. In order to ensure the gold medal plan for Asian Games, Zhang Lin has been training in Australia since July. After three months' devil training, he returned to Beijing in early October and continued to participate in the national team training in Muxiyuan. What made him most excited was that he took the torch as the first torch bearer from general secretary Hu Jintao and took part in the relay.

Although he doesn't know much about the status quo of his teammates, Zhang Lin believes that he and his teammates will be able to fulfill their most important wish -- to defeat the old rival Japanese team in the relay project, and to avenge four years ago in Doha. At the 2006 Asian Games in Doha, China led the Japanese team against the fourth bars in the leading position.

At the Asian Games, Zhang Lin signed up for three single events of 200 meters, 400 meters and 1500 meters freestyle, which is also his main item. Almost all of them regard the three matches as a confrontation between Zhang Lin and South Korean elite Park Tai Heng. Four years ago, at the Asian Games in Doha, Zhang Lin won three silver medals in the three main events. It was Pu Taiheng who defeated him. Zhang Lin won the silver medal for the Chinese swimming team two years ago at the Beijing Olympic Games. At that time, the South Korean Pu Taiheng was still standing on the top podium.

To some extent, Pu Taiheng and Zhang Lin will be rivals for a lifetime. When Zhang Lin went to Australia for training, Pu Taihuan also went to Australia for nearly three months of training. It is said that park's current state has returned to the standard before the Beijing Olympic Games. For the attention of the outside world, Zhang Lin did not want to talk too much.
