Chapter 197: The Honor of the Nation

"Zhou Yu, whip them hard!"

On a certain field in the training hall of the first national badminton team, several young men who had just finished training were watching Zhou Yu's one-two training. Others just watched and didn't say anything, so Lin Buckle was screaming vigorously.

"Do you want to continue?" Xiao Xu, the assistant teacher standing on the sidelines, looked at Zhou Yu.

"Go on!" Zhou Yu said, taking a step forward, and the ball that almost fell to the ground was rescued from danger.

Coach Qian arranged two male sparring partners to do sparring training with Zhou Yu. This was a common occurrence, but today the difficulty suddenly escalated. The sparring partners are all heavy kills, while Zhou Yu can only use pumping, picking and putting the net to defend and kill.

The male and female players are not in the same order of magnitude in terms of strength and speed, plus two against one at the moment, plus she is not allowed to attack, even if Zhou Yu tries her best, she still can't change the rhythm of being beaten passively.

In the blink of an eye, a ball grazed Zhou Yu's shoulder and flew over.

"Brother Xu, let them stop, Zhou Yu can't hold it anymore!" Lin Koukou was really anxious, and ran to Xiao Xu's side to intercede for Zhou Yu.

Xiao Xu glanced at Lin Koukou, looking at the stupid boy.

Xing Xiaolong hurriedly went over and pulled Lin Buckle away: "It depends on whether Senior Sister herself wants to stop." ”

"What do you mean, tell me!" Lin Koukou raised his head and looked at Xing Xiaolong, in front of this kid, he always wanted to put his senior brother's score on the table.

"The players led by Coach Qian all practice like this, how much do you want to practice, when to stop, the coach doesn't make rules, it all depends on consciousness. Brother Lin just came up from the second team, and he definitely didn't know that there were many coaches in the first team who were gods. Xing Xiaolong finally seized the opportunity to laugh at others.

"You kid still dare to look down on me!" Lin Koukou said, he was about to turn his face.

Xing Xiaolong's arrogance that had just risen was not extinguished in a flash, and he hurriedly said: "Brother Lin, Senior Sister has already said that you lack a chance." ”

"It's too late to be obedient now," Lin Koukou said arrogantly: "I'll go back to the second team to play my little game, you Xing Xiaolong is also a god, I don't deserve to play with you!"

"Don't, last time at the Denmark Masters, didn't we work well together, I will listen to you when we are officially partners. Xing Xiaolong laughed along.

Lin Koukou deliberately reserved for a while, before reaching out and patting Xing Xiaolong's shoulder, and said reluctantly: "I won the men's doubles runner-up last time as a temporary partner, I will put up with you for the time being, then again, you really don't have many brains to play." ”

"Yes, Brother Lin is right, go back to the Korea Open, let's fight for the championship together!" Xing Xiaolong hurriedly followed Lin Koukou's words.

Xing Xiaolong was in trouble some time ago, and before the Denmark Open, his partner was suddenly injured. When it was imminent, the first team could not find a suitable men's doubles player, or the second team recommended Lin Koukou to the top.

Unexpectedly, the two people who got together temporarily didn't practice together, but they actually passed all the way and won a bronze medal.

The team has officially made adjustments in the past few days, and Lin Koukou has been transferred to the first team and paired with Xing Xiaolong in men's doubles. The first match between the two was the Korea Open shortly after.

Looking at Xing Xiaolong, Lin Koukou said disapprerovingly: "There is something wrong with your pattern, if it weren't for the Olympic points, I wouldn't be willing to participate in the super 500 competition." If we want to enter the first echelon of the world men's doubles, Super 1000 competitions such as the All England Open and the China Open are the places we should really go.

"Brother Ring's words make too much sense!" Xing Xiaolong immediately cheered.

At this moment, Zhou Yu finally ran out of strength and lay directly on the ground.

"629 balls, it's a good day!" Xiao Xu walked over, bent down and rushed to Zhou Yudao.

After gasping for a while, Zhou Yu got up from the ground, took the towel sent by Lin Koukou with a good look, and wiped the sweat on his face.

"It's too hard!" Lin Koukou muttered again.

Xiao Xu glanced at Lin Koukou, a little funny.

"Is it okay to say a few words?" Zhou Yu looked at Lin Koukou, "The last one who dared to say that Coach Qian was ruthless has already rolled up and gone home." ”

"I didn't say anything about Coach Qian. Lin Koukou rolled his eyes and looked around carefully.

Xing Xiaolong looked at Lin Koukou and saw that he dared to show off his might with himself, and in front of Zhou Yu, he immediately coaxed. Thinking of this, Xing Xiaolong couldn't help but pout.

Jiang Yufei ran in from outside with a roar, rushed to Zhou Yu, and shouted, "Senior sister, hurry up and take a look, Coach Qian is quarreling with someone again!"

"He's full," Zhou Yu asked casually, "Who did you offend this time?"

There was laughter all around, Jiang Yufei was also happy, and said: "Go and take a look, just outside, he is fighting so hard with the team leader and Yan Gui, Coach Qian's face is blue."

。 ”

"Let him quarrel, I can't control him!" Zhou Yu sneered.

Zhou Yu now understands why Coach Qian left the national team back then, and now it seems that it is not at all that he was excluded by others, just his stinky temper, he can't get along with people anywhere.

It's also tiring. Every time Coach Qian has an unpleasant quarrel with someone, no matter who it is, he likes to call Zhou Yu over to fight. is so willing to push Zhou Yu out, it is nothing more than a dead friend who is not a poor man, and he feels that Zhou Yu can withstand the scolding of Coach Qian.

said that it didn't matter, Zhou Yu still followed Jiang Yufei and walked out, and naturally followed Lin Koukou, who was not a big deal to see the excitement, and Xing Xiaolong, who was now Lin Koukou's little follower.

"It just so happens that Zhou Yu is here, you tell her yourself!" Outside the training hall, Director Yan first saw Zhou Yu who was walking towards this side, and said to Coach Qian.

"What I tell her, I'll tell you!" exclaimed Coach Qian.

"What are you talking about?" Zhou Yu asked pretending to be innocent, and he had already seen that the faces of several people present were not good-looking.

Team Leader Li of the first team opened his mouth first: "Zhou Yu, there are several social activities in the back, the organizer wants to invite you to participate, Coach Qian doesn't agree, the reason is that it will affect your training, you talk about it!"

Zhou Yuguang smirked there, and he didn't make a stubble. Coach Qian didn't like Zhou Yu's participation in those activities outside, and felt that he was not doing his job properly and wasting time. Since he was so disgusted, Zhou Yu didn't want to poke the hornet's nest.

Zhou Yu's reaction, Team Leader Li naturally understood, but also understood that Zhou Yu did not dare to offend Coach Qian, and directly relieved: "Okay, we respect Coach Qian's opinion, if you really don't want to participate, we can coordinate, but ......"

In the middle of speaking, Team Leader Li stopped and glanced at Director Yan, obviously asking him to make a move.

"Old Qian, why don't you think about it again?" Director Yan was obviously asking Coach Qian.

Zhou Yu wondered in his heart, listening to their conversation, it seemed that it was not just for participating in business activities.

"I made it very clear at today's coaching staff briefing. Zhou Yu's goal is the World Championships and the Olympics, and those competitions below the Super 500 will not participate in the future. She is now preparing for the competition, accumulating strength, and impacting the competition. Coach Qian said with a pulled face.

Director Yan shrugged his shoulders and glanced at Zhou Yu.

"See what's the use of her," Coach Qian snorted, "The game is really important, but you have to be moderate." Too frequent competitions will make the athletes' physical strength and energy too much exertion, the muscles are always in a state of tension, and the probability of physical injury increases, can you old rivers and lakes know?"

"Zhou Yu, what do you say?" Team Leader Li kicked the ball to Zhou Yu again.

Zhou Yu's expression was a little sneering, Coach Qian's words were not unreasonable, but the game arranged by the leader, it was not good not to go!

"What does the child know, it's useless for you to ask her, I'm in charge of this matter!" Coach Qian had already snatched the words.

"Old Qian, don't be in a hurry, let's talk slowly. Coach Yan stretched out his hand and patted Coach Qian's shoulder, as if he wanted to persuade him.

"There's nothing to say," Coach Qian made it clear that the oil and salt would not enter, and then he simply said again, "Don't talk about Zhou Yu, Jiang Yufei has some games in the future, and it can be played or not." When these children followed me, I made it very clear to them that we are regular athletes, we want to make money, and when they are ranked first in the world and have capital, they will not obey me, and they will toss as they want. ”

"I listen to Master. Jiang Yufei replied quickly.

"What about you?" Coach Qian looked at Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu couldn't be ambiguous: "I don't obey your control, my mother will scold me to death!"

Coach Qian's expression was relaxed, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud when he looked at Team Leader Li and Director Yan.

Lin Koukou quietly moved closer to Zhou Yu and whispered in her ear, "Korea Open, are you really not going?"

Zhou Yu smiled, if you don't go, you won't go, Coach Qian is happy.

In the athletes' restaurant, Zhou Yu had just finished eating and was walking out, when someone grabbed her shoulder from behind.

"Finished eating?" Zhou Yu turned his head and looked at Wen Jingyi.

"Your old money is really enough to protect your calves, and there is nothing you can do with him under strict guidance. Wen Jingyi squeezed her eyes at Zhou Yu.

"I wanted to go to South Korea with you to pad my nose, but now I don't have a chance. Walking outside the restaurant, Zhou Yu joked.

Wen Jingyi helped her waist and said, "Then I won't wait for you, I'll go beautiful alone!"

Noticing Wen Jingyi's movements, Zhou Yu asked, "Is your waist still good?"

"How many years of old injuries can only be treated slowly," Wen Jingyi said this, her expression suddenly darkened, and said: "To tell you the truth, I'm afraid that I won't be able to make it to the Olympics." ”

"Why do you say that?" Zhou Yu was stunned.

"To be honest, my peak is over. Now I always have problems with my back injury, and I grit my teeth when I play. Wen Jingyi looked at Zhou Yu and said a little self-deprecatingly, "Also, the back waves catch up one by one, and metabolism is a matter of time." ”

Finally couldn't hold back, Zhou Yu asked, "Is it ...... I'm putting a lot of pressure on you?"

"What are you kidding!" Wen Jingyi glanced at Zhou Yu, "Let's all rely on our abilities, you are now ranked ahead of me, and your ability has gone up." The Chinese team's women's singles now have two of them in the top 10 in the world, what a happy thing, it proves that our strength is slowly picking up. ”

Zhou Yu smiled and grabbed Wen Jingyi's arm: "Actually, since the time of the South China Club, I have admired you very much, you are invincible on the field, almost invincible." At that time, I was thinking, I don't know how cool it is to reach your level, but I didn't expect that one day I would become your opponent. ”

"We are opponents on the field, but in my eyes, you are my best friend," Wen Jingyi patted Zhou Yu's head, "Okay, I will still work hard, and I will definitely stick to the day of the Olympics, and then, it is best that the two of us can meet in the finals like the senior sisters in front." When the time comes, no one will let anyone!"

"Okay, let's do it together!" Zhou Yu nodded vigorously.

"If you don't go on, I'll go to the infirmary for physiotherapy, and then I'm going to play the Korea Open. Wen Jingyi smiled and sighed.

"In your state, can you still play?" Zhou Yu asked in surprise.

"Of course we have to fight," Wen Jingyi said: "Team Leader Li talked to me, the current situation, the newcomer is still in the exploration stage, and the veteran team member needs to take it." Besides, every time I open a tournament, I fight for my country. We can't let foreigners say that we Chinese don't even have the ability to compete for the Super 500 championship now. ”

Zhou Yu looked at Wen Jingyi, but he didn't expect that the result of the dispute between Coach Qian and Yan was to let the injured Wen Jingyi play.

Wen Jingyi walked away, Zhou Yu turned his head and looked at the athletes' restaurant, which was still brightly lit.

One morning a few days later, Zhou Yu and Jiang Yufei leaned against the wall together to do lower limb strength training.

"The team signed me up for the Korea Open. Jiang Yufei whispered.

"You can do it. Zhou Yu encouraged.

Jiang Yufei looked not far away: "Sister Wenwen said that she wanted to participate, with her, we all feel a little more at ease." ”

Zhou Yu: "......"

"I heard that this time Kamal is the top seed, some time ago Risa Nakata was injured, she is now gaining momentum, participating in big and small competitions, she wants to hit the world No. 1," Jiang Yufei said, and laughed, "Kamal is this person, just play ball, every time she yells, she is noisy to death!"

Zhou Yu said casually: "She is engaged in psychological warfare, what she wants is to deter the opponent!"

"There are not many who can beat her now," Jiang Yufei muttered, "I hope I don't meet Kamal too early this time." ”

"She's progressing a little fast!" Zhou Yu leaned his head against the wall and sighed.

Kamal's style of play is fierce, and his pace and strength are quite amazing, but according to Coach Qian's harsh words, once this kind of power-flow player is injured, there will be no chance of returning to the top, because physical strength is the only magic weapon for them to win.

Although it is a small game, it is also a headache to meet an opponent like Kamal who is in his prime.

"What's wrong with Sister Wenwen?" Jiang Yufei suddenly screamed.

Zhou Yu came back to his senses and looked at Jiang Yufei's line of sight. Wen Jingyi lay on the ground not far from the two of them, looking at her posture, very painful.

"I've hurt my waist again!" Zhou Yu said, and hurriedly ran over.

When she knelt next to Wen Jingyi, Zhou Yu noticed that her face was pale. Zhou Yu felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and kept wiping the cold sweat on Wen Jingyi's forehead with his hand.

"Why hasn't the stretcher come over yet?" Yan Dao yelled beside him.

"It's almost there!" someone replied.

After a while, Zhou Yu stood behind Director Yan and watched Wen Jingyi being carried away, and his two hands unconsciously clasped together.

"She has to be treated quickly, and she is still playing in the Korea Open. Coach Qian came over and disapproved of the authenticity.

"This kid is very tough, I don't recommend her to go to South Korea, but Wen Jingyi said that she can't have no main force. Director Yan shook his head.

"As a coach, you can't even manage your own players. Coach Qian complained, turned his head to look at Zhou Yu, "Hurry up and train for me!"

With a pout, Zhou Yu turned his head and walked away.

In the afternoon training, Coach Qian personally fed Zhou Yu the ball and did diagonal smashes.

Zhou Yu looked a little distracted, and flew several times.

"What's going on?" Coach Qian stopped and scolded.

"I'm sorry, I'm not paying attention. Zhou Yu hurriedly explained.

"If you don't want to practice, don't practice!" Coach Qian made a blank face, dropped the ball in his hand, and walked off the court.

Jiang Yufei and a few girls were waiting next to them to play, and when they saw this scene, they took a step back in fright.

Seeing Coach Qian angrily about to go out, Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, and finally chased him out under Xiao Xu's reminder.

"Coach Qian, I was wrong!" Zhou Yu quickly admitted his mistake.

"Don't talk to me!" Coach Qian said without looking back.

Zhou Yu followed: "I went to see Wen Jingyi at noon, and the doctor said that she would definitely not be able to participate in the competition again within two months......"

"Tell me what are you doing about this?" Coach Qian directly interrupted Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu said loudly: "Coach Qian, I want to go to the Korea Open." ”

Stopping suddenly, Coach Qian turned around and glared at Zhou Yu: "What I said, you take it as the wind in your ears? What is the main task now, you should know in your heart." If your ideal is to win a few small championships, Lao Tzu can leave the club alone and come to take you?"

"I understand that I want to win the world title with the highest gold content. However, since I am playing for the national team, the honor of the country is above all else. We want to show the world what we can do, and that's our responsibility as athletes. Zhou Yu said loudly.

"You've already promised Lao Yan?" asked Coach Qian with a blushing face.

Zhou Yu shrunk his neck in the end: "This is just my own idea, I won't ask for Yan to guide me until you agree." ”

"I could see in the morning that you stupid girl had changed your mind. Coach Qian said unhappily.

Zhou Yu looked at Coach Qian, it turned out that he had already guessed his thoughts.

"That's not ......," Zhou Yu asked cautiously.

"No!" Coach Qian dropped a sentence and left.
