This training camp is not only the members of the Chongwen school team, but also the players from major schools across the country have gathered in the swimming pool of Chongwen, waiting for the final confirmation of the list of participants by the sports department
Participation in the Asian University Championships is open to university students between the ages of 17 and 28 who are enrolled in school or have graduated within two years. The list of entries www.biquge.info the Fun Pavilion is selected by the relevant sports department, and sometimes it is usually directly submitted to the world champions who are studying at prestigious schools.
is like the two senior sisters of the national team in the Chongwen school team, He Jiaqi and Lin Ruilan, one of them specializes in butterfly stroke, and the other practices long-distance medley. All of them have won results in world competitions, and they do not need to participate in the National University Championships, and they can generally qualify directly for the Asian Championships.
These players will be selected from various schools to form the strongest team to compete in the Asian Championships in Busan, South Korea.
Chongwen's swimming pool is very large, and there are always many swimming pools vacant on weekdays, and the players from major colleges and universities gathered, and it became lively. Concentrated practice can indeed mobilize people's sense of competition, and in different schools, everyone is holding their breath and practicing desperately, vowing to compete for excellence.
Fen Qiao has always focused on swimming, and when he swims, he is rarely disturbed by the outside world, and still trains according to the pre-competition training plan given by the coach.
The only difference from the previous competition is probably that Fen Qiao's pre-competition practice includes more rice medley. This is the practice program that Shu Min personally ordered for Fen Qiao, who was responsible for the final stick of the mixed relay, freestyle. The four members of the mixed relay are from other schools, and one of them is even a world champion in the 200 butterfly at the World Championships in Kazan.
This decision shocked everyone in Chongwen, not to mention anything else, isn't Shu Min's move announcing to everyone that Fen Qiao's entry list has been finalized? Pan Wenlei is also practicing 100 meters, in the eyes of Chongwen everyone, Pan Wenlei's results and stability will only be above Fenqiao, why is the relay chosen by Fenqiao?
There were still three days left in South Korea before Shu Min received Chongwen's entry list. She walked to the edge of the pool with the papers, clapped her hands and motioned for Chongwen to gather and prepare to officially announce the list of contestants.
Finally, when the moment came, the players of the women's team climbed up from the pool and lined up. Everyone was excited and timid in their hearts, and they were still dripping with water and were in no mood to wipe it, staring nervously at Shu Min's mouth, waiting for her announcement.
"I've said a lot about the competition before, I won't go into the rest, it's a pity that we have three players in Chongwen this year."
As soon as Shu Min's words came out, everyone's anger rose to their throats.
Three?
Chongwen's results in the national championship this year are not bad, and they are even very good, how can he only go to three? The number of places is limited, and there must be people who are scheduled to be brushed off.
Fen Qiao's quota has probably been confirmed, and it is impossible for He Jiaqi and Senior Sister Lin Ruilan to lose the election, so what about Pan Wenlei?
Everyone's eyes fell on Pan Wenlei.
Pan Wenlei's face was also pale and at a loss, she stared at Shu Min's mouth tightly, her eyes were full of disbelief, and she wanted to hear a different answer from Shu Min's mouth.
Shu Min continued to read word by word, "These three people are: He Jiaqi, Lin Ruilan, ......"
Pan Wenlei's breath was already condensed at the end of her nose.
"Fen Qiao."
Shu Min finally pronounced the name and closed the roster.
No one dared to question Shu Min in person, but there was an uproar in the team, and everyone's eyes were in disbelief, and they gathered in twos and threes to whisper.
Seeing this, Shu Min frowned, and said, "Everyone adjust their mentality, this time if you are not on the list, there will be a next time, if you have any questions, come to me at any time and disband."
。 With that, she walked straight to the stands with the roster in her arms.
This list was beyond Fen Qiao's expectations, and she never expected that Pan Wenlei would be among the losers. Pan Wenlei's results in the last national championship were better than her, why didn't she make the list?
The team had dispersed, but Pan Wenlei was still standing in place. Fen Qiao quietly looked back at her, just glanced at her, and immediately looked back again.
Pan Wenlei has always been free and handsome in her impression, and just now, Fen Qiao clearly saw the water stains under her eyes.
Occasional glances and whispers of discussion in the crowd came to Fen Qiao. The gaze of everyone made her very uncomfortable, but what made her even more uncomfortable was the sudden pressure. She took a few steps lightly, walked to the side with a blank face, picked up a towel and wiped the water on her body.
Pan Wenlei failed to participate, but Fen Qiao got this place, what if she has nothing to gain from this Asian Championships? Although his speed has improved a lot recently, Fenqiao has never been sure of his ability.
Shortly after the breakthrough, her 100-meter self-performance was not stable, sometimes she could swim to 54 seconds, sometimes it was nearly 55 seconds, and even 50 meters.
Pan Wenlei has always pressed her, this time, why did the coach choose herself?
Fen Qiao clenched the bath towel in his hand, looked back at Coach Shu Min in the stands, and took several steps, wanting to move and stopping.
Want to ask clearly?
After the relationship with Gu Yan was exposed, even the seventy-year-old professors in the school knew Fen Qiao, and Gu Yan was the director of Chongwen, and in Chongwen, Fen Qiao could always enjoy care without a trace.
If the coach chose her because of her strength at all, would she still be able to participate in the competition calmly?
No. Fen Qiao's brain gave this answer almost immediately. Not to mention that Pan Wenlei has helped her a lot, even if she changes to someone else, Fen Qiao can't convince herself to accept this quota calmly.
This time, Fen Qiao finally made up his mind and trotted all the way to the stands.
"Coach!" Fen Qiao gasped, and the moisture from his sideburns did not dry off, and it meandered down his jaw and landed on the floor.
Shu Min looked up from the notes she had taken, her gaze was not surprised, she had obviously expected Fen Qiao to come to her, "I know what you want to ask, Fen Qiao." ”
Fen Qiao lowered his head and pursed his lower lip, his voice was very low, "I'm not as good as Pan Wenlei's... Why me? ”
Everyone in the team didn't care about it, but their eyes fell on the two people in the stands, paying attention to the movements here.
Fen Qiao's words fell, but Shu Min shook his head, "Fen Qiao, have you carefully read your results during this time?" ”
What the?
Fen Qiao raised her head, her eyes puzzled, of course her own results had been studied.
"Compared to Pan Wenlei, your results lack stability."
"I know......" Fen Qiao admitted, but his eyes became more and more puzzled, in this case, why is the person who was screened out and why is Pan Wenlei again?
"This is Pan Wenlei's record since the training camp," Shu Min handed her the notes in his hand, "100 meters 54.23 seconds, 50 meters 24.78 seconds, this is your best result, Pan Wenlei has never swam."
。 ”
Fen Qiao's gaze followed the row of data on the notebook and looked down. The data is surrounded by dense annotations in small print.
Looking up again, Fen Qiao's gaze was stunned.
For a long time, she has been left far behind by Pan Wenlei, and even Pan Wenlei won the gold medal at the national championships not long ago and defeated herself. And now, these data clearly tell her that she has surpassed Pan Wenlei.
"As long as you swim like this at the Asian Championships, you will win two gold medals." Shu Min's expression was serious, "Fen Qiao, you just haven't been able to see yourself clearly. ”
"I'm not biased, Pan Wenlei wins in stability, but she also loses in stability."
The short-distance freestyle has never been Chongwen's strong event, and it was not easy to have Fen Qiao and Pan Wenlei, both of whom need careful care. Pan Wenlei has been at the top for too long, what she needs is a sense of crisis, and what Fen Qiao needs is confidence and affirmation.
If Pan Wenlei is used to compete, the results are mediocre and no suspense, and if Fen Qiao is used, the ending is likely to be eye-catching.
This is a risky move, and the slightest mistake may lead to a deviation. She has done what she can do, and the rest is only hoped that the two of them can understand her intentions.
Of course, she can directly throw the results of the two to the team members to see, negate their doubts with facts, and reduce the pressure on Fen Qiao. But those pressures are not necessarily a bad thing for Fen Qiao. Shu Min watched Fen Qiao walk down the stands step by step, exhaled lightly, and closed the notebook in his hand.
……
Time seemed to be back to the eve of the national championships, and Fen Qiao was once again surrounded by doubts.
Fen Qiao swam a group of meters and turned back, poked his head out of the water, went ashore, and took off his swimming goggles.
The people who originally dined with Fen Qiao and his party seemed to have forgotten her.
Again.
After a morning of practice, there was a lot of loss of physical strength, and Fen Qiao was exhausted, but he couldn't raise his appetite at all.
She couldn't tell where she was holding her breath, she couldn't vent it, she couldn't swallow it, so she simply didn't eat. Fenqiao put on his swimming goggles and plunged headlong into the pool again, only to swim until his calves twitched before coming back to shore.
I took a shower, put on my coat, and walked out of the swimming pool with my bag.
The lights in the swimming pool were bright, and when he came out, Fen Qiao found that it was completely dark, and a cold wind blew over, Fen Qiao couldn't help but shudder, tightened his coat, and continued to walk forward.
In the cold wind, Fen Qiao lowered his head and walked alone under the dim street lamp, feeling inexplicably sad. The closed training camp has been going on for several weeks, and she hasn't seen Gu Yan for a long time. Rubbing the mobile phone in the pocket of his coat, thinking of the cold eyes he received in the swimming pool all day, the ventricular cusps became aggrieved and sour.
"Fen Qiao."
A male voice came from behind her, calling her?
Fen Qiao turned back strangely, but the tall figure was Liang Yizhi.
His hair seemed to be a little shorter, and he was a spirited man, and he stood not far from Fen Qiao, and he didn't know how long he had been following her.
