Chapter 5 Fight and Defeat Again

That night, all the staff of "Jin Chong" returned to the peaceful "strongest bicycle shop", and everyone was in no mood to speak, including Huang Qiang and his wife, of course. On weekdays, Huang Qiang always likes to comfort everyone and say: victory and defeat are just a common thing in soldiers, and he will encourage everyone to say: victory is impermanent, defeat is impermanent... Yunyun. However, when it comes to Howard's "Good Charm" cycling team in River City, Huang Qiang doesn't know what to teach, and the more pressure and desire he has to do everything he wants, the greater.

Perhaps, it is like the local battle of a football match, which is the so-called "same city fight" match, where you are overly nervous and care about the opponent. In fact, for more than a year, not only Huang Qiang, but also his children Sam and Huang Mingshan will also use the "good charm of the same city" to force their own team members to train and sprint.

Zeng Wenlong is the fourth driver of the original T15, which is the predecessor of Zhang Yuan. He is a native of River City, and he is considered a real fellow villager of the boss (Huang Qiang is a native of River City), but he can't stand the pressure of Huang Qiang and Sam and quits.

Huang Qiang retreated to the next best thing, looking for a peaceful local rider in the T15 team, and just happened to meet some talented strong King Kong legs (Huang Qiang has watched his son compete in the peaceful academic track and field competition, he is also a physical education teacher, so he naturally knows Zhang Yuan's track and field experience and talent, so when Zhang Yuan went to the strongest bicycle shop, Huang Qiang had already set his eyes on him)

As soon as they hear everything about "good foot strength", Huang Qiang's father and son will unexpectedly have a rapid heartbeat and emotional instability...

Dream back to the past.... Let's talk about history, about Huang Qiang's love story and the reason for Howard's rebellion

Around 1992, on the eve of the summer vacation, Huang Qiang, a prospective graduate of Guangshi Sports University, and his good brother and classmate Huo Hua suddenly turned against each other. The classmates are guessing that the brothers are turning against each other, either for money or for women... The reason for the opposite purpose is not money or women, but the reason for this time is the latter.

Because they are people from the same city and county (Huang Qiang and Huo Hua), and they are of the same age, their preferences are probably the same (they all fall in love with physical education work, and like cycling, football, swimming and other activities), it is because they are like brothers from elementary school to senior year of college, so the women they like are probably the same type of people!

That year, in the fall of 1991, He Miaodi enrolled in the first year of Guangzhou Sports University, a first-year student of the university, and a Hakka athletic beautiful girl, with a strong physique, with a melon seed face, a pair of big eyes and a kind smile, plus a unilateral smile dimple (only on the left face), so that a group of college presidents (from sophomore to senior and graduate school) are all fallen for the beauty, so, there are indeed many people who pursue this beautiful schoolgirl...

Among them, Huang Qiang is the most prominent and active senior, and Huo Hua, because of his skills and appearance, is not as good as Huang Qiang, so at the beginning, he did not get Zhang Miaodi's attention. But Huo Hua's eyes when he looked at Zhang Miaodi, it was the kind of expression that was deep in love, but shy, which attracted Zhang Miaodi's attention, but... She already has a boyfriend, Senior Huang Qiang.

Zhang Miaodi and Huang Qiang were found holding hands to watch a movie near the body after the Lunar New Year holiday in 1992, and they began to date, about three months later, because Huang Qiang secretly dated the Department of International Trade of the University of Foreign Languages... was secretly bumped into by some sophomores, so it became a small topic of conversation after tea and dinner on the campus of the University. The worst thing is that Huang Qiang only shared the matter of chasing foreign language university flowers with one brother of Ho Hua...

Therefore, when Zhang Miaodi asked Huang Qiang if he was having an affair, if no one knew about it, he would not do anything unless he did, but Huang Qiang was lying at a loss, Zhang Miaodi told Huang Qiang the time and place of Huang Qiang's date with Lin Lili, and what drinks he drank clearly, which made Huang Qiang feel betrayed by his brother, and at the same time, Huang Qiang was dumped.

In the evening of the same day, Huang Qiang went back to the dormitory and scolded Huo Hua for not being righteous, and his crush on Zhang Miaodi used treacherous tricks to correct him. Howard only said that he had not told anyone about Lin Lili and him.

But Huang Qiang didn't believe it, everyone didn't speak for a while, and Huo Hua, who had been wronged, walked around in the garden of the campus, but unexpectedly, he met Zhang Miaodi under the gazebo in the campus garden.

Zhang Miaodi happened to be crying here, and when she saw Huo Hua coming, she stared at Huo Hua with a helpless pear blossom and rain, as if encouraging him to take the initiative to come over. At that moment, Huo Hua's bold behavior came out of nowhere, he approached Zhang Miaodi, shook her hands lightly, took a step closer, and kissed the corners of her lips.

Just this kiss created a lover and a couple.

At the same time, it also created enemies for a lifetime, that is, Zhang Miaodi and Huang Qiang. Howard, who was sandwiched in the middle, immediately broke off their relationship with Zhang Miaodi, and they didn't speak again until today's game.

Back to the scene

Due to the failure of this competition and the defeat at the hands of his former rival, Huang Qiang's eyes were red.

Mrs. Huang - It turned out to be Lin Lili, the school flower of the Department of International Trade of the University of Foreign Languages. In Huang Qiang's heart, his wife, regardless of her appearance, family background, connections and even wealth, is far above Zhang Miaodi, but Huang Qiang occasionally said that he still hates Huo Hua when he is drunk and crazy...

Mrs. Huang knows that Huang Qiang can't forget this hatred, as for Zhang Miaodi's status in Huang Qiang's heart, it doesn't matter at all, Huang Taiji confidently believes that her husband's feeling for Zhang Miaodi is like looking at the scenery from the other side, it seems to be more beautiful, but it's not.

In the next 2-3 months, the members of "Jin Chong" received super special training, and those who served as soldiers often said that what they got from receiving love was called training; What you can't accept is called grinding. There are a total of 12 people in the three groups of the Jinchong team, all of whom have been honed by the devil's earth, not only to their daily work and studies, but also to their family life.

The members of the team, who were originally interested in cycling races, are now under severe mental pressure and overloaded, and everyone wants to avoid practice. In the past month, everyone seems to be out of breath, living under huge and unnecessary pressure, some people will be injured, and some people often make mistakes, but everyone understands Huang Qiang well, so everyone is working hard to do their part, and even force themselves to do better.

On October 25, 2008, the Guangzhou-Zhuhai Provincial Highway Race, a 170-kilometer road time trial, is also a large-scale race including group races and individual results.

The strongest bike shop has a strong team of riders, and the strong team "Rush" was placed as the No. 16 seed team (which is really an unprecedented low ranking). From Guangzhou North Railway Station (Huadu District) to Guangzhou South Railway Station (Panyu District), it is a situation of scuffle, only one person, in the first minute of the first minute, rushed wildly, allowing the second place to the unknown number of people in the city of Guangzhou Avenue scuffle for the second place. The first person, who is only 14 years old, is the youngest ace driver of the "Zhenyang" team, Huang Futao.

He possessed an extraordinary physique, wisdom and perseverance, and no one ever doubted his ability and determination in 'Lift Up'.

In addition, Huang Qiang, who claims to have sent the strongest lineup, what about his "strong rush"? On the urban highway of Guangzhou, all the cyclists of "Rush Chong" are surrounded by this group of riders, although they have broken through the past personal thought that they are their best results, and have improved and improved their efficiency in data, which means that they are really improving.

However, after the race entered the center of Zhongshan, the road at the exit of the Pearl River Delta was crisscrossed by a large number of dark slopes and viaducts, and unknowingly, the experienced riders (such as Zhang Yuan) unknowingly lost a lot of energy, and for the "Rush Rush" team, it may have been the mental stress and war weariness caused by the tension of the last two months (the most common occurrence of athletes under overtraining), resulting in a heavy psychological and physical burden.

When it came to the section near Tanzhou, Zhongshan, the non-seed team riders in the front were all unable to staminate, and the seed team chased forward fiercely at this moment, and they all rushed past the group of drivers who "rushed". Even the main drivers of the second and third grade teams such as "Jinlong" in Su City, "Xiongyang" in Guan City, and "Dayangshan" in Shao City all ran faster than the athletes of "Jinchong".

Huang Qiang's face was dark, he was blaming the players for not having enough physical strength, blaming them for not concentrating when practicing, and not working hard in the game... He didn't think about it, because he had been haunted by the last loss to Howard, so he did whatever it took to win the game and regain his dignity without considering the actual situation, and the result was:

The more stressful you are, the more you want to win, and the worse you lose, just like gambling in a casino, when you're in a hurry to turn over, the result is that you lose faster!

Finally, the first to cross the line was the F group "Zhenyang" driver Cui Qiuming, T21 is also the "Zhenyang" driver - Zhou Liguang and T18 champion Fan Qun, T15 group, and broke the previous record, the winner - Huang Futao. The winners of the four categories of adult F, T21, T18 and T15 are all from the "Zhen Yang" cycling team of the father of BMX, Hong Kong rider "Chu Tianxin", and the most prestigious Hong Kong team.

Champagne was sprayed and flying in all directions, and the 14-year-old champion boy couldn't drink, but he could use it to spray others with champion champagne. This quote comes from an interview with Zhu Tianxin, whose team won the individual championship in this competition.

When the reporter who interviewed him asked Zhu Tianxin again, Huang Futao, who was only 14 years old, how did he feel about breaking the record and winning the championship?

Zhu Tianxin said: He is looking forward to the arrival of other drivers, benign competition is beneficial to everyone, only more and more drivers to Huang Futao continue to stimulate, he can break through himself again...

Come back and see our protagonist - Zhang Yuan, what about him? His brother He Xiaohua came to the finish station of the race in Gongbei District, Zhuhai City, to cheer them on. However, when He Xiaohua saw the champion, it was not Zhang Yuan, and at the same time, it was not his "Jinchong" teammate.

He Xiaohua was also unhappy, but when he saw Zhang Yuan, who was tired and dying, slowly crossing the finish line, he felt a little like crying, exactly... What made Zhang Yuan like this, he was not energetic and extremely tired. He Xiaohua asked himself, I have known him for 10 years, and I have never seen Zhang Yuan like this.

Zhang Yuan's bicycle stopped, and Zhang Xiaohua gave him a sports drink, a sweat-absorbing towel, and a kind smile. Enough, everyone's own brothers, everything, all in words.

The overall results of this time came out, Zhang Yuan's overall ranking in the T15 group was 177, and a total of 240 people participated in the T15 team competition. He Xiaohua comforted him: If your results are calculated proportionally, you are also improving, and your ranking has also risen...

However, the T15 soul is Sam, who is only ranked 16th this time; Aman is ranked 19th; George is ranked 37th and Zhang Yuan is 177th.

Finally, the overall results of the team competition, in the T15 group, "Rush" ranked 15th, and the No. 16 seed team finished 15th, is it ironic or real strength? "Jinchong" T15, I have never tried to rank outside the top ten, and this time it is Zhang Yuan, who is ranked 177th, who is dragging everyone down. But no one will blame this, a new member of the competition for the second time.

Everyone was so tired that they didn't even want to talk, they just wanted to take a hot bath and sleep for another day and a night.

After the race, the drivers and staff got on the special bus to return to peace, and on the bus, Huang Qiang, who had a black face, didn't say a word...

Back in the meeting room of the strongest bicycle shop, Huang Qiang criticized the riders in harsh terms, and every rider in the roll call was criticized, among them, his son Sam was the one who was criticized the most. After scolding, Huang Qiang said in a warning tone: If you don't do well, next time will be the last chance, and those who can't will be replaced.

When Huang Qiang criticized everyone, Mrs. Huang kept looking at it, but she didn't say a word.
