Chapter 56: Sycophants (Asking for Recommendation Votes)

Chen Qiang only knows Zhu Baozhang, the "king of sprinting" in the last National Games, but he doesn't know who Zhang Shiguang and Zeng Rongzhong are.

However, since Cheng Jinguan knew their names, Chen Qiang could guess that these two were also very strong athletes.

So Chen Qiang opened his mouth and asked, "Zhang Shiguang and Zeng Rongzhong, they are very powerful, right?" ”

Cheng Jinguan immediately explained: "Zhang Shiguang is from Tsinghua University in Beiping, Professor John Ma's favorite apprentice, it is said that he is the No. 1 'Scud' in Beiping, and he has compared with foreigners in the World Games, and many foreigners are not his opponents. There is a saying in Beiping, Liu Changchun outside the gate, Zhang Shiguang inside the gate! ”

"It turned out to be Mr. Ma's beloved apprentice!" Chen Qiang said suddenly realized.

"What Mr. Ma, Professor Ma is not yet fifty years old this year." Cheng Jinguan opened his mouth and said.

Chen Qiang smiled and said secretly in his heart: "In my eyes, you Cheng Jinguan are Cheng Lao, let alone Mr. Ma!" ”

Chen Qiang is still very familiar with Professor John Ma of Tsinghua University.

Mr. John Ma is a well-known physical educator in China, he is a professor of physical education at Tsinghua University, and has twice studied physical education at Springfield College in the United States, and is proficient in football, tennis, baseball, track and field and other sports. In 1936, he participated in the Berlin Olympics as the head coach of the Chinese team's track and field, and after liberation, he served as the chairman of the Athletics Association and the chairman of the National Sports Federation. He has dedicated his life to China's sports industry, which can be said to be a banner of Chinese sports.

"Since he is Professor Ma's senior apprentice, this Zhang Shiguang must be extraordinary." Chen Qiang then asked: "Then what is the origin of this Zeng Rongzhong's advantage?" ”

"Zeng Rongzhong is a native of Hangzhou, he studied at the National Central University, and is known as the 'fastest leg in Jiangnan'. His coach was an American, so Zeng Rongzhong also trained according to the standards of American athletes, and it is said that in the entire south of the Yangtze River, no one is his opponent. Cheng Jinguan explained.

Chen Qiang nodded again, he had read some records in later generations, and knew that there were foreigners among the physical education instructors of National Central University.

McLewr, an American, taught there from the very beginning of the founding of the National Central University until the thirties, and later the German Gerhan also came to teach physical education at the National Central University.

The United States and Germany, both then and now, were sports powers, and the level of American coaches and German coaches was still very high, and the disciples they trained would definitely not be rookie weak chickens.

What's more, this Zeng Rongzhong is still a native of Hangzhou, as the host player, there will definitely be a morale bonus during the game, and it is conceivable that in the game where Zeng Rongzhong played, the audience must cheer for him.

I only heard Cheng Jinguan continue: "Zhang Shiguang and Zeng Rongzhong, both of them have the strength to enter the finals, plus Zhu Baozhang and you, your group is equivalent to four finals players, only two of the four can advance, your group is a well-deserved group of death." I really don't know why the four of you are grouped together, it's just that the person in the group doesn't know your strength, but you must know that Zhu Baozhang, Zhang Shiguang and Zeng Rongzhong, no matter how they are grouped, these three people can't be in the same group. ”

Chen Qiang waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and the opponent is strong, so don't you compete?" The stronger the opponent, the more you should fight! ”

……

The 100-meter dash restarts.

Liu Changchun stood on the starting line and took a deep breath, he felt that today's state was much better than yesterday.

He was originally injured, from the northeast to Hangzhou, all the way by train and boat, so that he could not recuperate at all, and fighting with injuries would inevitably make his injuries worse.

So when he first arrived in Hangzhou, he rested directly and didn't even attend the opening ceremony.

Yesterday afternoon, he insisted on completing the 100-meter preliminary race, and then went back to rest, fortunately, the preliminary race was not difficult for Liu Changchun, even if he was injured, he could easily qualify.

After a night's rest, Liu Changchun felt that he had recovered seventy or eighty percent of his state. Of course, his injuries will still slow down his speed.

As soon as the starter said "ready", Liu Changchun put on a starting posture.

After the gunshots rang out, Liu Changchun immediately rushed out of the runway, and then frantically moved forward like a wild horse.

"It's really fast!" Chen Qiang couldn't help but sigh.

Liu Changchun has injuries on his body, and he doesn't have Chen Qiang's sprinting skills, but with his body alone, he ran at a speed that crushed everyone.

At fifty meters, Liu Changchun's advantage was enough to guarantee victory, but Chen Qiang could feel that Liu Changchun was a little weak.

Chen Qiang couldn't help but recall some records about Liu Changchun's participation in the Olympic Games, it is said that he had an advantage in the first half of the race, and every time he reached the second half, or even when he was close to the finish line, foreigners would surpass him.

"Weakness in the second half of the race, this is not only Liu Changchun's problem, but also a common problem of Chinese sprinters!" Chen Qiang shook his head, the problem of weakness in the second half of the year has not been solved even at the beginning of the twenty-first century.

This is not only true for Chinese athletes, but also for many white athletes, who are not as good as the first half.

Since 2010, almost all of the world's top sprinters in the second half have won the title of world champion. Usain Bolt, for example, was invincible in the second half of the campaign.

On the track, Liu Changchun had already crossed the finish line, and the referee quickly gave his result, 11.4 seconds!

The 11.4 seconds of the hand count just exceeded the standard score of the national second-level athletes, which is nothing at all in the later generations, and several can be caught in the stadium of the county-level middle school. But in this era, in the field of the 4th National Games of old China, this is already the fastest result so far.

"It's really worthy of Liu Changchun, even if he fights with an injury, he can still run a time of 11.4 seconds." Someone couldn't help but exclaim.

Liu Changchun, who successfully advanced to the finals, did not stay long, nor did he stay in the stadium to watch other people's games, he left early and went back to the locker room to rest and recuperate.

Next, it was Chen Qiang's turn to appear.

All eyes are on here, and everyone knows that this is a group of death.

……

On the podium, the dean of the examiners saw the "ordinary sneakers" that embarrassed him yesterday.

Thinking of being slapped in the face twenty seconds yesterday, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, and there was a depression in his eyes.

Today he decided not to say anything, lest he repeat the same mistakes.

At this time, Director Lu came over.

"Dean, you see the third player from here, he is Zhu Baozhang from Tianjin, in the last National Games, he won all three gold medals in sprinting alone!"

"Dean, look at Zhu Baozhang on the right, his name is Zhang Shiguang, a native of Beiping, nicknamed Beiping Scud, his strength is comparable to that of Liu Changchun in the last game!"

"Dean, look at the person in the back, his name is Zeng Rongzhong, National Central University, nicknamed the first fast leg in Jiangnan, in the entire south of the Yangtze River, no one can run him!"

"Dean, there are six people in a group, and only two players can advance to the finals, so this group is really strong, if you want to advance, it is difficult to climb to the sky! For some unknown contestants, that's the end of it. ”

Director Lu introduced it for a long time, and the dean of the examination also understood what was going on. This was a deliberate attempt to give "Ordinary Sneakers" a death group so that he could not advance to the finals.

I have to say that it's really good to be an official, it's even better to be a big official, and things like this kind of retaliation, he doesn't need to open his mouth to order, someone can help him do it.

At this time, the dean of the examination still had a sense of satisfaction in his heart, and this satisfaction did not come from Chen Qiang's retaliation, but from the flattery below.

Sitting in the position of the dean of the examination, it is impossible for him to be narrow-minded and have no energy, and he will not retaliate against Chen Qiang for the fact that he was slapped in the face after being handsome for only twenty seconds yesterday.

However, the fact that the officials below did this kind of thing in private still shows that he is a leader with a lot of cards, which can make him enjoy the satisfaction brought by power.

Many officials are like this, they may not be greedy for money, nor will they necessarily use power for personal gain, but they will enjoy the feeling of being in power and responding to every call, and the status that power brings to them will make them extremely satisfied.

For the subordinates with eyesight, the dean of the examination still planned to find out, so he glanced at Director Lu and asked, "What is your name Lu?" ”

"Humble Lu Youqi." Director Lu hurriedly said.

"Yes, it's good, it's good." The examiner nodded in satisfaction.

Director Lu was immediately overjoyed, this fart was a success!

Next to him, Director Lu's colleagues cast envious and jealous glances.

Isn't it just to arrange a death group, what's so difficult about this! This little trick can pat the dean's ass, it's just worth it! I didn't think of that!
