A special thank-you to my student, Yunting Zhang, for her extraordinary contribution to the success of the Sanya Open.
As the first Tianjin Sanda Champion produced by our club, she is truly my pioneering senior disciple. Currently pursuing her Ph.D. in Mathematics in the United States, she is also my mentor and dear friend. The moment she heard about the event, she flew across the ocean without hesitation to serve as our system operator.
During the official weigh-ins, she brilliantly resolved the language barrier between Russian and English with her quick wit. Throughout five high-pressure days of competition, her exceptional professionalism and sharp intellect ensured Ring 2 ran flawlessly and at full speed. She stays true to her principles and isn't afraid to speak up and call me out when necessary—and time and again, she proved to be absolutely right. Even more, she provided crucial support and stood as a solid rock behind this event at the most critical moments.
She carries the fierce spirit of a fighter in the ring, the rigor of a scholar in academia, and the dedication of a true leader behind the scenes.
Thank you, Yunting—I am truly lucky and proud to have you!
特别感谢我的学生张云婷，为本次三亚公开赛圆满举办所付出的卓越努力。
作为俱乐部培养出的第一位天津市散打冠军，她是名副其实的“开山大弟子”；同时，正在美国攻读数学博士的她，更是亦徒亦友的“数学导师”。得知赛事筹备，她毫不犹豫远渡重洋飞回国内，担任系统操作员。
在称重现场，她凭借敏锐的智慧化解了俄语与英语沟通的断层；在长达5天的赛事高压运转中，她以极强的专业素养和独立担当，保障了2号擂台高效、流畅地运转。她有自己的原则和坚持，甚至敢在工作中“直言不讳地纠正我”——而事实证明她的判断完全正确。更难得的是，她还在关键时刻给予了赛事坚定的支持与托底。
既有擂台上的锋芒，又有学术上的严谨，更有办赛时的担当。感谢云婷，幸甚有你！
