Chapter 144: This is the real dragon
PS: The previous chapter was blocked, and it should be released soon.
After Shen Lang completed the static test, he was first taken to the cafeteria.
It was breakfast time, and Wang Hua took this opportunity to introduce him to everyone.
But in fact, there is no need for him to introduce it, most of the team members know that there is a 14-year-old guy in the team, including his background, which has also been passed out from the small circle of the Shanghai Gang.
Shen Lang quickly introduced himself, and several old people in the team immediately came over to set up with him, and his attitude was very friendly.
But whether these people are really so kind to him or not, this cannot be just taken on the surface.
Take Zhao Xuebing in front of him as an example, he is full of kind smiles at the moment, and he looks like a loyal big brother.
But in terms of system information, especially the favorability displayed, this Zhao Xuebing is not very friendly.
Zhao Xuebing, male, 25 years old, captain of the national men's swimming team, good at breaststroke and freestyle.
Main achievements: "7th place in 100m breaststroke" and "9th place in 100m freestyle" in the 7th Asian Games; In the 8th Asian Games, he won the 5th place in the 100-meter breaststroke and the 7th place in the 100-meter freestyle.
These profiles don't seem to be a problem, but they show a 46 (disgust) on a favorability scale.
For some reason, this guy was extremely disgusted with Shen Lang when they first met.
But Shen Lang didn't want to know the specific reason, he just needed to know who was the enemy and who was the friend.
Just like He Jiahui, the captain of the women's team, can be friends, her favorability towards herself is 75, which is very friendly.
Shen Lang didn't check their attitudes towards him one by one, because most of these teammates didn't have much intersection with him, just check the attitudes of a few star players in the team towards him.
If you meet teammates who are not very old, have good talents, and are friendly to you, you can consider strengthening their talents in the future.
But it's a pity that he checked several male teammates in a row, and they were not very friendly to him.
Just when Shen Lang wondered where he had offended these teammates, he was surprised to find that most of the female teammates were very friendly to him, and the worst was a normal impression, and he didn't even have any disgust.
This is very strange, Wu Jie also happened to be observing this puppet, and when he saw this situation, he thought about it for a long time before he understood why.
Shen Lang's appearance is very high and his figure is good, but the most important thing is that the conditions at home are good, especially the family background is very good.
Shen Lang's family also has a history of more than 200 years, at that time it was a wealthy gentry, and his grandfather's generation was also a well-known rich man in Shanghai, half of the real estate in Zhouqiao Village before the liberation was in their name, and there were also many industries in the city, including Hong Kong.
Of course, this gentry belongs to the class that has been defeated.
But his grandfather was a wall-riding faction back then, and secretly supported rabbits, and most of the real estate and properties were handed over after liberation, but they were commended.
Not mentioned in the previous decade, now the state has begun to implement new policies, and some properties and properties that were originally nationalized have begun to return to their owners.
Of course, it is impossible for the Shen family to return half of the village, but it is possible to return part of the property that was handed over at the beginning. and his family's ancestral house, which originally covered an area of five hectares and was later demolished to only three hectares, should also be returned. Including some undeveloped land along the river, I don't know if some of it will be returned to them.
Anyway, Shen Tao is applying to use the land that originally belonged to their family to create a collective factory, and lead the villagers to start a business together, maybe they can get some of this land back in this roundabout way.
Shen Lang's family background is basically like this, saying that he is the second generation of the village is actually a bit derogatory, and it is not suitable to say that he is a future local tyrant, after all, the family has a history of more than 200 years.
The players in Shanghai all know Shen Lang's family background, coupled with his good looks and excellent figure, which will naturally arouse the favor of most of the opposite sex.
But at the same time, it will also make most people of the same sex feel unhappy, everyone is not a saint, who is not a little jealous.
But then again, although no one in the men's team can compare with Shen Lang's appearance, almost half of the team members are a little handsome in appearance, and their figures are also outstanding compared to ordinary people.
But look at the women's team again, there is not even a good look, and the figure is all tiger back + big thick legs.
This situation is easy to explain, swimmers need very strong body strength and endurance, especially the strength of the upper body and thighs, and at the same time, in order to reduce underwater resistance and save physical strength, the selection of materials will require the upper body to be longer than the lower body, the shoulders to be thick and wide, and it is best to have a pair of giant palms and feet, it would be perfect.
These requirements make both male and female swimmers the type of strong, bear-backed and bear-waisted, and with thick lower limbs.
So the question arises, why do male swimmers still look like models?
This is because the male body is broad and strong, supplemented by streamlined bodybuilding abdominal muscles, which is very in line with the mainstream aesthetics, even if the hands and feet are big, it is not a defect, although it is not the type of slender lower limbs, but all outstanding male swimmers are very tall, so the legs still look longer than ordinary people.
Female swimmers are different, the figure of tiger back and bear waist + big hands and feet definitely does not conform to the mainstream aesthetics, especially the upper body is long and the lower body is short, and it will look short and fat and short, and this kind of skeleton is generally difficult to grow a good-looking melon seed face shape, so it has caused the situation that female swimmers generally have low appearance and poor figure.
This is not a phenomenon unique to China, it is the same all over the world.
There is no shortage of endorsements for male swimming stars, and there are many female fans, so it is easy to gain fame and fortune.
Most of the female swimming stars have no endorsements, let alone male fans, and even a room of medals can only be watched by themselves, which is very tragic.
After Shen Lang got Wu Jie's instructions, he immediately pretended to be a scheming, innocent and sunny little Zhengtai, trying to make everyone feel his warm smile like a spring breeze.
It's very scheming, it sounds like a green tea duck, or a better name should be "idol"?
After breakfast, it's time for the official training.
There are no major competitions this year, but next year there will be the "Asian Games" and the "World Championships", and the national team will start preparing for these two events after the New Year.
Shen Lang learned through his teammates that the daily training time of the national team is set at 6-8 hours according to different events, which is a lot of training intensity.
He is special because he is the youngest member of the national team, the youngest is 15 years old, and the coaching staff does not know his physical condition and results, so it is necessary to find out his bottom first, and then decide what kind of training to arrange for him.
Shen Lang warmed up by the pool before taking the test, and then went to swim a few laps in the water to familiarize himself with the venue.
At this moment, around the pool, many team members are discussing this new teammate.
"His figure is so beautiful, he doesn't even have a trace of fat!"
"yes, it's all streamlined muscles, how do you train it?"
"It's scary to have such a figure at the age of 14!"
"Did he lie about his age, you say?"
"I think it's like how it is possible for a 14-year-old to practice like this, and I have some doubts about saying that he is 15 years old."
“……”
These voices, either nymphomaniacs or lemons, fully show the attitudes of different groups of people towards Shen Lang.
"You're good at the 100m and 200m butterfly and freestyle, so let's swim the 100m freestyle first."
Liu Guangzu is a coach from Shanghai, and he has the information sent from the Shanghai team and the data he just measured in his hand, and he is ready to find out the bottom first.
"I'm ready to go."
Shen Lang hasn't been training in the water for three days, but his physical condition can fully meet the requirements of the competition.
Liu Guangzu nodded and put the whistle in his mouth, holding a stopwatch in his hand that could only be accurate to 0.1 seconds, and his eyes were fixed on Shen Lang, who was ready.
"Toot!"
The whistle blew, Shen Lang kicked hard, and entered the water beautifully, and the reaction speed was very fast!
Liu Guangzu also pressed the stopwatch at the same time, and then followed Shen Lang by the pool to observe.
Shen Lang's action as soon as he entered the water has already made many team members exclaim, because this is the weakness of domestic athletes for a long time, and the reaction to entering the water will always be slower, and he will habitually shrink back.
But it's not that the Chinese players are slow to react, it's a gap in physical talent, and they need to push enough to get enough underwater propulsion when kicking the wall, and the top players in Europe and the United States usually have an advantage in this link, often leading a distance at the start.
Shen Lang's performance in the starting stage was very similar to that of European and American athletes, and after entering the water, many people's eyes widened, because he did not use the traditional freestyle leg action underwater, but used the butterfly leg stroke, which is commonly known as the "dolphin leg".
This maneuver immediately caused controversy, and almost no one in the freestyle of the seventies and eighties used "dolphin legs" at the start.
But I have to say that Shen Lang's connection from departure to entry into the water is very perfect, and he dived thirteen or fourteen meters underwater in one go, which is very close to the 15-meter limit stipulated by FINA.
No one in the Chinese swimming team has been able to dive underwater for so long, because underwater propulsion is a great test of leg ability, and most people have to float up less than ten meters, otherwise the underwater speed is not as fast as the water swimming stroke when the propulsion is not enough.
Shen Lang's leg and arm strokes after coming out of the water are still full of power, and he also uses a straight-arm stroke that is rare in this era and more physically demanding.
This movement allows him to swim forward in a completely horizontal position, not only does not sway from side to side, but also does not fall together, and all parts of his body seem to be a whole, like a dolphin in the water.
Liu Guangzu paid more attention to the place, he followed Shen Lang by the pool, and he could clearly see that Shen Lang's arms were basically symmetrical on both sides, and the way of hitting the legs was very powerful, the water almost flowed over his head, and unlike most domestic players who used 2 leg beats, he could actually use 4 leg beats.
This technical and physical talent made him a little short of breath, and he was sure that no one in China had such a perfect swimming style and technique, including in international competitions, he had never seen anyone with such a wonderful swimming style.
Shen Lang quickly finished the first 50 meters, and the upcoming half-turn is a key part of measuring the level of the runners.
Liu Guangzu stared at Shen Lang in the water, and he clearly saw that when this little guy turned around, his torso, hips, and shoulders were all synchronized, and these parts were still on the same plane.
Again, this is a very remarkable performance, and no player in the national team can do such a perfect turn, because it requires all the core muscles of the torso to be used, and it requires excellent coordination and strong core strength in all parts of the body.
Shen Lang didn't know that Liu Guangzu had such a high evaluation of him, otherwise he would definitely accuse this coach for having too little knowledge.
His four leg beats are an incredible performance in Liu Guangzu's eyes, but thirty years later, the first-class masters have already hit the legs six times.
This turn is also very mediocre, compared to those first-class players thirty years later, at most 50 points.
This is mainly due to the fact that they are too young, and many skills can only be improved when they reach the physical fitness standard.
The swimming pool of the national swimming team is formulated in accordance with the standards of international competitions, the length is the standard 50 meters, then the 100-meter competition is a round trip, and the second half is the time to test the real strength of a player.
Although Shen Lang's physical talent has greatly improved after upgrading, he is limited by his age, and there is still a lot of room for improvement in various attributes.
This slowed him down in the second half of the race, but even in the final 15 metres of the sprint, he was able to sprint with a strenuous straight-arm stroke and four leg kicks.
In the end, when the moment of hitting the wall and coming out of the water, all the teammates who were watching the excitement on the side couldn't help but praise!
Many people were convinced at this time, of course they could see that Shen Lang's physical talent in this test was very amazing, but the most amazing thing was his swimming style and technique, many of whom had never even heard of it.
Liu Guangzu felt his body tremble a little, because when he pressed the stopwatch, the time displayed on it was 53.40 seconds!
What does this mean?
This means that Shen Lang has reached the standard of "athlete", and the standard of the latest men's 100-meter freestyle event "athlete" in China is 54.00 seconds, which is only 0.4 seconds away from the 53.00 second standard of "international swimmer".
There are only four people in this national team who can meet the standard of "international swimmers" in the "men's 100-meter freestyle" event, but the fastest time is only 52.70 seconds, which is difficult to swim into the final at the Asian Games.
Shen Lang's 53.40 seconds looks a little worse, but he is only 14 years old!
If you can swim so fast at this age, won't you have a chance to break the Asian record in two years?
The current long course Asian record for the men's 100m freestyle is 50.57 seconds, and the world record is 49.45 seconds.
Therefore, if you can swim in less than 51 seconds, it is enough to hit the gold medal in the Asian Games.
If you can swim under 50 seconds, you can already hit the Olympic medal.
Shen Lang obviously has the talent to swim for 50 seconds, and Liu Guangzu immediately knew that the country had a genius in swimming.
"Is it really windy?"
Liu Guangzu just watched the news of Ruda's interview in India today, and his remarks after the game have been featured in several major domestic media.
But Liu Guangzu didn't expect Luda to say that there are really more than one or two geniuses in Chinese sports, and there was a dragon lying in the shallows in front of him in a real sense, about to take off.
