Guo Jingjing came, but this time she appeared as a judge.
"Queen of Diving" Guo Jingjing's identity has changed, but she is still very approachable. Look, she is wearing a black coat, a woolen hat, and holding a thermos cup in her hand, chatting enthusiastically with the surrounding fans, without any star-like airs.
The news that Guo Jingjing arrived in Canada and interacted with Quan Hongchan at the diving World Cup training hall immediately caused a stir, sparking heated discussions online.
The sight of these two legends of the diving world together was impressive enough, but there was an action that left everyone stunned. Clearly, their relationship was not simple!
This has to do with a classic diving move. The two worked together with perfect synchronization and executed a perfect synchronized dive. This kind of coordination and默契was like they were telepathic. Just seeing this scene made one feel the deep friendship between them, without needing words, it flowed naturally!

Furthermore, the age difference between them is quite large, and they became famous at different times. So how come they get along so well?
With these questions in mind, it suddenly became clear that there were many warm and touching stories behind the scenes.
What a coincidence!
On April 10, 2025, Guo Jingjing appeared at the diving World Cup training venue in Windsor, Canada. She had just greeted her enthusiastic fans and was about to go to the judges' stand when Quan Hongchan finished her training and walked towards her.
When Quan Hongchan came down from the diving board, her hair was still wet, wrapped in a big towel, exuding youthful vitality, looking like a little fairy just emerging from the water.
She immediately noticed Guo Jingjing in the crowd, her eyes lighting up like stars, and without hesitation, she rushed towards Guo Jingjing.
Here comes the key moment: after walking over, she actually sat down on Guo Jingjing's lap!
This scene was so unexpected that those around were stunned for a moment, then let out exclamations of surprise, but soon laughter spread.
Over here, Guo Jingjing was amused by Quan Hongchan's cute demeanor, completely unconcerned about the water stains on her body, and affectionately hugged her tightly.
Quan Hongchan leaned beside Guo Jingjing, smiling brightly. They both happily gave a "YEAH" sign to the camera, making this scene so warm that it melted hearts.
Look at Chen Ruolin next to them, who seemed to be moved by this sweet scene, quickly took out her phone to capture this beautiful moment.
Looking at this picture, who wouldn't want to know what their relationship is and why they interact so intimately?
Tokyo Olympics - The Beginning of Their Destiny
Everyone must remember Quan Hongchan's stunning performance at the Tokyo Olympics.
At the age of 14, a newcomer, she easily won the gold medal with three perfect scores, shocking the whole world.
At that time, Guo Jingjing was watching the competition, full of admiration and amazement, and she herself admitted that after twenty years of diving, no one had ever achieved three perfect scores.
It really has to be said, Quan Hongchan's talent and strength are truly impressive.
From then on, Guo Jingjing began to pay special attention to this girl.
Quan Hongchan reminded Guo Jingjing of herself when she was once on the diving platform, giving her all to chase her dreams.
Quan Hongchan has long regarded Guo Jingjing as her super idol.
In interviews, she repeatedly mentioned with admiration that she greatly admired Guo Jingjing, considering her a role model, hoping to shine like Guo Jingjing someday in the diving world.
So every time she met Guo Jingjing, Quan Hongchan was so excited that her eyes were filled with affection and couldn't hide it.
Later, Quan Hongchan encountered some trouble in training and competitions, especially the pain of a waist injury, which made her performance poor.
Upon learning about this, Guo Jingjing was very concerned and immediately offered to take Quan Hongchan to Hong Kong for medical treatment, hoping to help her solve the pain problem.
Despite the fact that they couldn't go due to training schedules and team arrangements, Guo Jingjing's concern did make Quan Hongchan and her family feel warmth, and also tightened their relationship.
Hong Kong trip strengthened their bond
After the Tokyo Olympics, the Chinese Olympic athletes delegation visited Hong Kong. As the daughter-in-law of the Ho family, Guo Jingjing was responsible for part of the reception work.
This trip also gave her more opportunities to interact with Quan Hongchan.
At the event site, Guo Jingjing pulled her father-in-law, Ho Tim Ting, and actively went to find Quan Hongchan for a photo. In the photo, the three of them looked extremely happy, with a happy atmosphere emanating.
Guo Jingjing not only showed enthusiasm during the photo session but also always paid attention to Quan Hongchan's dynamics in daily life.
At a certain banquet, Guo Jingjing noticed Quan Hongchan staring at the rose-shaped pastry in the middle of the table, with curiosity and fondness in her eyes, so she gently pushed the dessert to Quan Hongchan.
This small gesture was jokingly called by netizens as the "feeding scene in the diving circle," vividly demonstrating Guo Jingjing's care for Quan Hongchan.
On and off the field, emotions have always been present
Over time, Quan Hongchan trusted Guo Jingjing more and more, treating her as a close sister.
She was willing to talk to Guo Jingjing about the trivial things in life and the small setbacks in training.
After each competition, regardless of the outcome, Guo Jingjing would be the first to rush up and give her a big hug, encouraging her to keep going.
Remembering the scene where Quan Hongchan met Guo Jingjing in the hallway during the Paris Olympics, it was truly amusing.
At that time, Guo Jingjing was preparing to record a moment of the competition with her phone, and as soon as Quan Hongchan saw her, her eyes lit up, and she excitedly ran towards her.
Before Guo Jingjing could figure out what was happening, Quan Hongchan gave a sweet kiss to the camera, then playfully turned around and ran away, leaving Guo Jingjing laughing uncontrollably.
This scene was captured by a passerby and uploaded online, causing netizens to react strongly, with comments such as: "How cute, this interaction is amazing!"
"These two people get along really well, they're like sisters!"
The Continuation of Diving Spirit
Although Guo Jingjing is a former legend and Quan Hongchan is a representative of the new generation, they both have brought glory to China's diving team and carried on the spirit of Chinese diving.
During her career, Guo Jingjing has brought many honors to China's diving team. Starting as an ordinary diving player, she faced numerous challenges, overcame injuries and doubts from others, and eventually became the revered "Queen of Diving."
Her persistence, diligence, and spirit of hard work have inspired batch after batch of young divers.
Quan Hongchan, this new-generation diving prodigy, has truly gone from being unknown to a household name. Everyone can clearly see her efforts during training. To seek perfection in that fleeting moment, she practiced the same move again and again, sometimes hundreds of times.
Their friendship is not just simple emotion, but also the continuation and inheritance of the spirit of Chinese diving.
Conclusion
I believe that in the future, there will certainly be more outstanding athletes like them, continuing to write the brilliant chapter of Chinese diving.
