CNY has a deep cultural significance in China, and Chinese communities worldwide. The essence of it is Tuan Yuan, or unity, specifically referring to family ties. It is strongly expected for Chinese to drop everything and make the long journey home to their family for the two weeks (I think?) that the CNY holidays span in China. This will also involve a lot of visitations to relatives' households, feasting etc etc. It's like Christmas, Easter and the Regent's birthday combined or something. | ||

While China rests the rest of the world is playing. overall from the interview i read, it doesn't seem like chinese teams actually had the motivation to want to "to be competitive and want to keep up solid results" so yea china seems to be aware that overall they dont care enough rightnow | ||

Its easier to understand now. Cant teams practice during the day for a couple of hours though? Or do they need to be with family for 24/7 | ||

Or do they need to be with family for 24/7 they can, but it's harder to organize team practice in any way because a lot of them come from different places and stuff, and they normally have a teamhouse the rest of the year... i mean im not denying china does and has sucked, but that they suck especially this major does have a pretty valid excuse imo | ||
