93 years ago today, on July 30, 1932 (June 27, 1932 lunar calendar), China participated in the Olympic Games for the first time. In 1932, the "City of Angels" Los Angeles ushered in the 10th Olympic Games. On July 30, 1932, the 10th Olympic Games were held in Los Angeles, USA. At the graduation ceremony of the Department of Physical Education of Northeastern University on July 1, Zhang Xueliang personally announced that Liu Changchun and Yu Xiwei were athletes and Song Junfu was a coach to represent China in the 10th Olympic Games. Hao Jingsheng sent a letter to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and consulted with Wang Zhengting and Zhang Boling of the National Sports Association. Mr. Zhang Boling urgently called the Olympic Committee to handle the registration procedures for Liu and Yu. Liu Changchun, led by Hao Gengsheng and Song Junfu, arrived at the Shanghai dock and was warmly sent off by thousands of people in Shanghai. Dr. Wang Zhengting, director of the China Association for the Advancement of Sport, and his wife attended the flag-awarding ceremony and gave a farewell speech, saying: "Our country's sending you to participate in the World Sports Congress this time is the first time since the founding of the country, and it is of infinite significance. Yu Jin, with a sincere heart, represents the All-China Association for the Advancement of Sport to present the flag and the king. May you use your fighting spirit to carry forward in the Olympic Stadium in Los Angeles, so that the flag of the Republic of China can be flown in front of all countries in the world, which is a supreme honor." Subsequently, the athlete's reply expressed his determination to win glory for the country, but Yu Xiwei failed to make the trip for some reason. On the day of the opening ceremony, the Chinese team was improvised. Liu Changchun held the national flag, followed by Shen Silang as the general representative, and then represented 4 people: Song Junfu, Liu Xuesong, Shen Guoquan, and Tuoping. After the start of the competition, Liu Changchun ranked fifth in the 100-meter preliminary race in about 11 seconds and was eliminated; the 200-meter time ranked fourth in 21.9 seconds. Although not named, his posture and courage have been praised by outsiders. In the 1932 Los Angeles Olympic Games, Liu Changchun represented China in the Olympic Games for the first time.
