Some interviews/documentaries that I don't have time to completely translate right now and they're pretty generic interviews anyway...
- April 2009 (after winning a senior national competition for the first time)
- She started skating when she was 4 because the daughter of a family friend was a skater, and she thought it looked pretty
- Initially she couldn't get ice time except really early in the morning or late at night
- Her mom would carry her out to practice at 4AM and one time the neighbor saw them and called, wondering if Zijun was sick. Nope just going to skating practice
- December 2010
- Her favorite skater is Yuna; she admires Yuna's speed, performance quality and strong jumps. She hopes she can skate like Yuna someday
- Asked which word she'd like to define the new year, she answers 成 (as in 成功 = success) and then they have her write it with a brush
- May 2012
- "I don't really remember how I felt back then [when I first started skating]...it was just fun, wearing blades on my feet and sliding around on the ice, I just thought it was fun." The first time she skated, she didn't fall even once!
- Her parents thought she'd get bored of skating but she never did, and eventually they made the tough decision to put her into formal training
- In 2008 she went to train in the US along with Kexin and Bingwa, this was kind of a big deal because only three Chinese skaters were sent abroad to train
- She got homesick and the training was hard but she learned to be more independent while her parents weren't around
- One time they went to LA Disneyland and toured around one of the four sections; they didn't know the park had more than that and were surprised LA Disneyland was so small lol
- On her coach Li Mingzhu: "She's very strict. She pays attention to all the small details."
- She trains in Beijing most of the time and doesn't get to go home very often. She doesn't really keep up with her childhood friends because she was always busy skating
- When she was little she skated for fun, now she is motivated by a drive to succeed and her goal is to always challenge herself at every competition. She hopes to go to the 2014 Olympics and do well there
- She is the most thankful for her parents for always supporting her
