According to a report by The Wall Street Journal, the Chinese government has secretly paid freestyle skier Eileen Gu a staggering amount totaling millions of euros. This payment, documented in China's state budget, indicates that Gu received the majority of a €12 million support package over a three-year period. Following the discovery of this error in public documents, the names of the athletes involved were quickly redacted, shedding light on the opaque funding practices that may surround high-profile Olympic athletes.
