Gu Kun didn't pay attention to how many spectators left the stadium after the game.

Because he's really tired today.

A 1500-meter freestyle preliminaries, three 200-meter breaststrokes, that is a real 2100-meter swim, and four sprints. It was definitely the most physically demanding day since the start of the race.

If you were a normal earthling, it would be absolutely impossible for you to maintain your condition under such physical exertion.

Gu Kun completely relied on "breaking the world record in any single event only needs to use eight successes" to barely make it.

Hurriedly returning to the hotel, Gu Kun rinsed down a little, and went straight to the bed.

"Why don't you eat something first? I made you steak and prawns. Lin Ying quietly followed Gu Kun's house and asked softly.

She came to Fukuoka two days before the start of the competition, and she accompanied Gu Kun to talk to relieve boredom and cheer him on, but she definitely didn't let him get close to women.

She occasionally borrowed the kitchen of a temporary short-term rental next to the hotel to help Gu Kun cook something delicious, and the ingredients were all brought from China by the team, so as not to contain stimulants.

"Let's eat it later. Gu Kun buried his head in the pillow, and he didn't bother to lift it.

"Then I'll rub it for you first, and then I'll warm it up for you when the time comes. Lin Ying said, and gently and considerately killed Gu Kunma.

After reassuring, Gu Kun pointed to the cabinet where the luggage was kept: "Help me get two bottles of vodka and a box of chocolates." ”

Of course, Lin Ying complied, and then Gu Kun grabbed and ate two catties of steak with his hands, and then began to pour vodka and chew chocolate, estimating 20,000 calories before stopping.

In the eyes of the lover, Pan An, even if Gu Kun is just eating, with the state and great achievements of the past few days, he is dizzy and shaken in the eyes of the girl.

Lin Ying only felt that Gu Kun's gestures had a strong masculine smell.

"It's really exciting, the coach and teammates stared at me two days ago and pulled me to eat together, which was really embarrassing, and I had to worry about others treating me as a weirdo. Gu Kun let out a long breath, "I've worked hard for you these past few days." ”

It is only in front of his own women that his quirks and talent will not be suspected.

Lin Ying listened to the man's comfort, her heart was sour, and she was a little relieved: "Am I the kind of 'big brother's woman' on "Crazy Boy"? ”

Some little girls just enjoy the FEEL of being a big brother woman, and it can only be said that everyone has their own ambitions.

Actually, this time Midlova also wanted to come to Fukuoka to watch the Kun competition.

But Gu Kun didn't want to see a bunch of blonde girls on the field shouting for him, it was too abrupt. So he deliberately did not give Middlelova or even any international student a travel allowance.

Midlova, whose life has just improved, now has to regularly transfer money to Heckland's hometown to support her family, so she is very sensible and has no extravagance and gives up watching the game.

After all, Lin Ying is a rich girl who came out of her own pocket, which is different.

The two of them simply hugged Wen Cun and rested for a while, Lin Ying remembered something and asked: "Your subordinates called you that day, and I didn't ask for details, I don't want to spoil your emotions in the game." The competition is going to be over tomorrow, is there something wrong with Lan Fang?"

Gu Kun lit a cigar, this was his first smoke during the competition, and he had been very restrained before. Then he said leisurely:

"It's true that something happened, I believe you are measured, and you won't talk nonsense. is a business rival, Zhu Jingye wants to deal with my people. But at least no one was killed, and the other party bled fiercely-

When you came last time, didn't you say that a woman named Hu Mei wanted to persuade you to seduce me and provide some scandal about me? Now I can tell you clearly that the boss behind Hu Mei is Zhu Jingye.

So Zhu Jingye is the one who chose another plan to deal with me after confirming that Hu Mei's persuasion failed and that you refused to cooperate with them in just a few days. When I return home tomorrow, I'll have to deal with them. ”

Lin Ying was terrified when she heard it, but she also understood her husband's love more and more.

The people around Gu Kun are really unsafe.

"What about my response that time...... Isn't it inappropriate and harms others? If I talk to Hu Mei for a while, maybe I can drag them down and keep them from taking risks......" After all, Lin Ying had never seen blood, and her essence was still kind, so she was a little uneasy.

"It's none of your business, Hu Mei looking for you is superfluous, it's Zhu Jingye's wishful thinking, don't think about it. I'm going to rest. ”

Gu Kun domineeringly took all the psychological burden on himself, and asked Lin Ying to retreat and go back to the room to sleep by himself.

As for tomorrow, turn pressure into strength, vent out, and then hide merit and fame.

……

Monday, August 21.

Gu Kun, who slept lazily until half past nine in the morning, ate a buffet breakfast to his heart's content, wandered around the hotel, read magazines on the Internet, and passed the two hours.

It was close to noon, so I went to the hotel's gym to get used to the warm-up first, and then with Lin Ying, I called a car to the Kitakyushu Swimming Center.

The taxi price starts at 660 yen, and you basically have to skip a word in a few seconds.

After all, the Universiade is not as good as the World Championships and the Olympics, limited by funds, the swimming team does not charter a bus, and the other team members usually walk to the venue, anyway, it is not far from the hotel.

In the taxi, the driver didn't recognize Gu Kunlai at first, but because he heard that Gu Kun was going to a swimming center and spoke Chinese, he cautiously asked him in Chinese: "There is a player in the Huaxia team, named Gu Kun, are you ...... Do you know?"

"He is. Lin Ying proudly announced, and hugged Gu Kun's arm tightly.

"It's a bit like what NHK photographed, can you sign it for me? I don't charge you for the fare. ”

Gu Kun smiled, casually pulled out a small advertisement clipped on the backrest of the front seat, signed his name, but finally paid for the car.

If he didn't give money, wouldn't it be equivalent to selling a signature for 660 yen?

The driver was obviously aware of this problem, apologized to Gu Kun again and again after parking, and took the initiative to get out of the cab and go around to the other side to open the door for Gu Kun.

"At least in Fukuoka, you already know it. Lin Ying said proudly and with relief.

Gu Kun smiled and didn't care.

Soon they entered the site, took samples to check for doping according to the procedure, and completed all the preparations.

With the announcement curtain in the loudspeaker, Gu Kun took off his headphones, and stood on the starting platform of this arena for the last time in the cheers of the audience.

In order to adjust the rhythm before the competition and not let the noise in the field disturb them, many swimmers still have the habit of wearing headphones and listening to some background music that suits their inherent rhythm until they are ready to board the starting platform.

Gu Kun was not so poor and exquisite, but just five days ago, when he won his third gold medal and broke his eighth world record. A man named Gohito Tima suddenly flew in from Tokyo, and Bula Bula lobbied him a lot.

He also bowed and thanked for handing over the check to give a sample gift, and implored Gu Kun to listen to Sony's latest lightweight version of DIS and use Sony's headphones before the follow-up competition.

At that time, Gu Kun could only reluctantly accept this pair of Sony headphones that were said to be worth 1 million yen and the matching DIS.

And, of course, there's a check for 100 million yen for advertising expenses.

Even so, Gu Kun only promised to wear it before the competition in the future, so that the media from all over the world can shoot close-up shots to see that this is Sony's. But endorsement Gu Kun doesn't do it.

It's only more than 8 million yuan, what else does Sony want? Dai Dai is benevolent and righteous, enough to save face.

Love gives, doesn't give roll.

"Prepare guys. ”

Gu Kun slowly ripped off the headphones, placed them on the side of the starting platform with the CD Walkman, and finally stretched his arms with his ten fingers crossed.

With a whistle, Gu Kun flew out like a torpedo.

Recently, there have been too many troubles in my heart that I don't want to think about, and with the return to my heart, I really need a way to vent.

On the other hand, because there will be no follow-up games, Gu Kun doesn't have to think about conserving his physical strength.

Just be willful for once.

It's a big deal that it will be more difficult to break the world record in the 1500m event in the future.

But it doesn't matter, with other projects alone, it is already a certainty that he will surpass Bubka in the future.

To be a man, the most important thing is to be happy, occasionally arbitrarily, not according to the plan to play cards, but also very cool.

"Oh my God, how can it be so fast?"

"This rhythm is obviously much faster than yesterday's preliminaries, is it impulsive?

The people on the stage were all concerned about Gu Kun from the bottom of their hearts, as if they were worried about him, and some of them vaguely felt that they could witness a greater miracle.

Kosuke Kitajima, who already had to count on Gu Kun to retire in a flash before he could become the world's frog king, was also in the stands, and his heart was completely adoring and excited: "He is such a professional athlete, he will definitely not distribute his physical strength indiscriminately! There must really be spare energy! Come on!"

After only five laps, Gu Kun has already surpassed the second place by half a lap. On lap 10, I passed 80 meters and then steadied until the sprint.

At this moment, the 10,000 spectators in the venue knew that there was no problem of improper distribution of physical strength, and everyone's pupils were dilated, and they just wanted to see more shocking news.

"Come on! go over! go over! go over!"

"Don't save your energy! Let's take a look at sportsmanship!"

A player from the Oceania Kingdom who won the second place saw a huge wave next to him suddenly bounce over, and the echo made people breathe and suffocate, and it was really more than a lap.

The 1500-meter record in the Universiade and the World Youth Championships was originally more than half a minute slower than the world record, so Gu Kun had to surpass the second place by at least 70 meters in the preliminaries.

Now the ring is nothing more than 30 meters more than the preliminaries, but the converted time is at least 15 seconds.

Of course, the second and third places seem to be worse than yesterday's preliminaries, so it is impossible to break the record by 15 seconds all at once - mainly after the other players were trapped, they suffered a huge psychological setback and blow, and when they finally sprinted, their willpower collapsed and they did not rush to full strength.

"14 minutes 27 seconds 88! It is a full 11 seconds 02 seconds higher than the 14 minutes 38 seconds 90 he set yesterday! Gu Kun became the first earthling to swim 14 minutes and 40 seconds after he was the first earthling to swim into the 14 minutes and 40 seconds mark!"

Gu Kun drew a perfect end to his journey to the World Universiade. ”

Journalists from various countries excitedly announced in front of their respective camera lenses in their respective languages into the microphone.

When Gu Kun got off the scene with a bath towel, countless reporters surrounded him, and the people of NHK took advantage of the landlord to take advantage of it:

"Gu, may I ask why you were able to suddenly break the world record of 10 seconds at once today? Is it because you don't want to keep your strength? The outside world says that you want to be the one who surpasses Bubka, and you don't care about the sportsmanship that you do your best, what is your explanation for this?"

Gu Kun: "I can break as much as I want." As for sportsmanship, I think it has to be a big picture. For those events that are physically exertional, it is normal to save a little stamina until the final round, as long as you can ensure victory.

I can't distribute my energy like everyone else, because you can't find another player who needs to register for 9 events and swim 25 games, right?"

The NHK reporter was dumbfounded by the rhetorical question, and felt that what Gu Kun said was really reasonable.

Yes, on the earth, Gu Kun alone reported nine gold medals at one time, and he had to swim at least four times a day on average, is it wrong for people to allocate their physical strength a little?

Now that it's the last day, didn't they do their best to break the world record of 10 seconds at once?

What Bubka's conspiracy theory is completely slander! Gu Kun's sportsmanship is at least even higher than Bubka's!

The female reporter ended the interview respectfully with an almost flattering smile.

Then Gu Kun was touched by a group of girls who reached out across the fence, desperately trying to ask him for an autograph.

Gu Kun politely signed a few, and then withdrew under the escort of his bodyguards.

Limited by the nature of the competition and the scale of media reports, he believes that his reputation is so sought after in Yuben for the time being, and as for the transmission back to China and the attention of all people, it is estimated that it will be the beginning of school.

That's the real harvest season.

However, it's not bad to have a good reputation in this book. After returning to Lanfang, in the first year or two in the future, Chinese tourists will still not be rich enough compared to the consumption level of Lanfang.

If you can attract enough people to support the party, it doesn't take too much, and tens of thousands of people a year is a lot of business. After all, Lan Fang is only that big, and there are very few people who need to be fed.

……

Gu Kun is like this, carrying an epic honor, and returns with a high profile.

On the night of August 21, his flight arrived in Hujiang from Tokyo, and then transferred to Guangdong and Kuching. Since it was late at night in Kuching, he stayed for one night and returned to Lan Fang on his own boat the next morning.

At the Lanfang Port Wharf, Gu Kun saw a grand welcome ceremony.

It was actually Zhu Youdong, the Grand Duke of Lanfang, wearing official court clothes, who came out to "welcome" the hero in the suburbs.

"Your Highness. Gu Kun still politely said hello first.

"Gu Kun, you are the hero of our Lan Fang. The Grand Duke held Gu Kun's hand and said a high-sounding words of encouragement.
