According to the data, Gu Ailing was born in September 2003, is 20 years old, and is a freestyle skier. In June 2019, Gu Ailing, who had just turned 16, announced that she would represent China, and her registered nationality with the International Ski Federation changed from the United States to China. In the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, Gu Ailing made a historic breakthrough for China's ice and snow in the women's freestyle skiing event. In this Winter Olympics, she won a total of 2 golds and 1 silver.

In early 2024, Gu Ailing said in an interview that she planned to continue to represent China in the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy, giving thousands of Chinese girls the opportunity to see the charm of ice and snow sports. She also hoped to play a bigger role in the broader women's sports field.

In addition, Gu Ailing has mentioned many times that she is proud of being a female skier and hopes to guide more girls to go skiing. "I hope that when young girls see my performance in the Winter Olympics, they will be inspired and motivated to go out and try something. I hope my achievements can make them feel that they have the ability to do the same thing."

At the just-concluded Paris Olympics, she frequently appeared at the stadium as a spectator or fan, interacting with Chinese athletes. In the mass marathon event, she also completed her first full marathon with a finishing time of 3 hours, 24 minutes and 36 seconds.
