During the nearly one-and-a-half hour live broadcast of the opening ceremony of the Winter Paralympics, Liu Dan, a teacher from Beijing Jianxiang School, used smooth gestures and a warm smile to bring the hearing-impaired people in front of the TV a wonderful ” Explanation”. During the Winter Paralympic Games, she and four other teachers from the school’s sign language interpreter team will continue to be involved in the “silent broadcast” of sports news.

Liu Dan recalled that when he received the important task of sign language interpretation for the opening ceremony of the Beijing 2022 Winter Paralympic Games, there were only ten days before the opening ceremony. Although he has participated in large-scale events and important meetings many times, Liu Dan is still a little nervous. She used the delegations that appeared at the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics as a template, and practiced the translation of each country against the national general sign language dictionary.

It was the opening day when I really got the commentary for the opening ceremony. In less than two hours, Liu Dan quickly became familiar with the commentary, sorted out the process, and focused on the information of the Chinese delegation, and his nervousness was relieved a lot. At 8 p.m., she sat in the studio full of energy, speaking with her hands, and “tells” the wonderful moments of the opening ceremony to the hearing-impaired.

Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner. However, when Li Duan, a visually impaired athlete, was groping to light the main torch, Liu Danben’s calm mood became nervous again. Liu Dan said that in that blank period, although the narrator did not speak, there was indeed a voice at the scene, and the audience was cheering for Li Duan. After much consideration, Liu Dan came up with the sign language of “Come on”.

“At this moment, from this moment, let’s guard this little fire in our hearts together, and guard this bright light at our fingertips.” Along with the last commentary, Liu Dan’s translation work for the opening ceremony also came to an end. It’s not that people in the industry may not have noticed that when translating the word “guardian”, Liu Dan deliberately pressed his hand to his chest tightly. Next, Liu Dan and his colleagues will continue to devote themselves to the news reports of sports events. “We hope that through our work, we can break down the gap between the hearing-impaired and hearing people, so that everyone can share the sports feast.”
