Shortly after entering the Olympic year, the fourth generation "shark skin" swimsuit tailored for the Beijing Olympics was grandly launched. As if unwilling to disappoint NASA and the Australian Fluid Laboratory for over three years of research and development, as well as spending millions of pounds, this swimsuit that allows athletes to wear what looks like "future warriors" instantly stands out in the record breaking frenzy sweeping the world's swimming industry. This high-quality and frequent exposure eliminates the need to invest a penny in advertising new products, in addition to giving Phelps a few sets of swimsuits.

Of course, "Shark 4" will use a series of numbers, symbols, and specialized terms to cover itself with a charming high-tech halo: the first 100% ultrasonic bonded swimsuit; Passed over 400 hours of uninterrupted power tank testing at the University of Otago, New Zealand; Professional technicians have conducted 3D scans on the bodies of over 400 athletes to obtain detailed body data for improved manufacturing.

Faced with this dazzling array of numbers, athletes around the world who want to make a difference in the blue waves of the Water Cube are confused: whether to wear or not, this is a question. With the beating of the Olympic drums, the sailors from all walks of life have finally decided to disarm, even if it costs a lot, even if there is a wave of opposition in their ears: "Shark skin" is a superstition. And the host Chinese team finally cannot go against a considerable part of the public opinion, and has opened up its arms to the "Shark 4" with more than ten days to go before the Olympics.

The Chinese team is not superstitious. As Qian Hong said, in the absence of her own strength, this is also an attitude of keeping up with strong teams.

We are delighted by the new records that have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, but we have no way of judging whether "shark skin" is the savior of China's swimming industry. Only one thing we can see clearly: behind the debate between science and superstition, our boss is counting a lot of money. China doesn't seem to have such swimsuits
