Chapter 41: Group 5 (Asking for Recommendation Votes)

Of course, Chen Qiang will not take the five-cent registration fee back to buy food. At his insistence, the middle-aged dick man could only register for Chen Qiang.

When the middle-aged dick man handed the registration form to Chen Qiang, he was still muttering words like "Good words are hard to persuade damn ghosts".

In this regard, Chen Qiang just smiled faintly and did not make much excuses. He wanted to keep a low profile, and signing up for the National Games as a coachman today was already very attention-grabbing, so Chen Qiang simply didn't say a word and left quickly.

……

The young man who went to sign up in Chen Qiang's car was named Zhou Songling, a student at St. John's University.

St. John's University, nicknamed the "Harvard of the East", was the most famous university in Shanghai at that time, and Fudan University, Tongji University, Jiaotong University, and other top universities in later generations could not compare with St. John's University at that time.

St. John's University is a church school, and church schools start physical education relatively early, so St. John's University has the best athletes in the country. In the first section of the National Games in old China, the students of St. John's University were all kinds of champions, and the later East China Games were also led by St. John's University.

This time, many students from St. John's University also signed up for the selection of the Shanghai team of national athletes, and Zhou Songling was one of them, and the event he signed up for was high jump.

With a week to go until the trials, the contestants who signed up for the competition have also started to train intensively, and the playground of St. John's University is even more crowded.

When Zhou Songling came to the playground, he happened to see several familiar partners getting together on weekdays, and Zhou Songling immediately stepped forward.

"When I went to sign up yesterday, I came across something new! Guess what? Zhou Songling said mysteriously.

"How can you guess this! Zhou Songling, don't sell it, say it quickly! Someone next to him said.

Zhou Songling cleared his throat with a dry cough and said: "I went to the China Stadium yesterday to register, and called a car halfway, and I didn't see until I finished registering, and the driver who pulled me there was also registering!" ”

"What? You say the coachman signed up for the National Games? You're not kidding me! I don't believe it! Someone immediately objected.

"I can swear to God that what I said is true! You don't know, the person who signed me up at the time knew that it was a driver, and he shouted that he would return the registration fee to him. Zhou Songling said with an oath.

"Although this National Games, Shinong and industrialists can sign up for the competition, even the peddlers and pawns can also give it a try, but I really didn't expect that there are really people who believe to sign up, and this driver is also quite upright!"

"Zhou Songling, such an upright driver, you didn't get to know him, and if you do his car, he will definitely not charge you more!"

The crowd began to tease.

Someone asked: "Zhou Songling, what project did you call the coachman you signed up for?" ”

"100-meter dash." Zhou Songling paused, and then said: "And he only runs 100 meters, 200 meters and 400 meters, he himself said that he will only run guidance, not turn." ”

"Can't turn? Hahahaha...... And this is still to participate in the national athletes? I don't think it's that others can't bend, it's that his brain can't bend! This coachman can't be a bad brain, right? ”

"It must be a bad brain, if you have a good brain, you should know that he is a coachman, completely untrained, how can he outrun us college students!"

"Maybe this driver thinks that 100 meters is enough to rush forward, I bet he must not know what a squatting start is!"

"Nonsense, a coachman, where does he know how to squat and start."

The crowd teased again.

At this time, Zhou Songling opened his mouth and said to a person beside him: "Cui Linhai, if you meet that coachman, you will make a lot of money, I estimate that you can be twenty or thirty meters ahead of him!" ”

The young man named Cui Linhai shook his head: "You don't know how to sprint, if you run 100 meters, you will be in a group with a weak opponent, but it is not easy to run a good result, when you are too far ahead, you will subconsciously feel that you are running fast, but in fact, the opponent is too weak." On the contrary, if your opponent is strong, it will bring out your potential and make you run faster. ”

"That's right. This selection competition is ranked according to the results, and only the first place in the overall score can get a place to participate in the National Games. Someone spoke in response.

"Cui Linhai, I heard that you can run for 12 seconds now, is it true? I remember the 100m champion at the last National Games, which was a 12-second run. Wouldn't you be able to win a national victory? Zhou Songling then asked.

Cui Linhai smiled and didn't answer, but his expression was acquiescing.

I only heard Cui Linhai say: "The national championship is a matter of the future, but this time the Shanghai team selection competition, I am determined to win!" I heard that Li Yongping of Hujiang University, his best score is close to 12 seconds, and a freshman named Liu Yuanzhi from Tongji University is also very good. ”

……

A week passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was the weekend, which was also the day of the Shanghai team selection for the National Games.

Early in the morning, the Zhonghua Stadium was full of people, in addition to the players, there were many citizens who came to watch the game.

On the bulletin board at the gate of Zhonghua Stadium, the grouping of players has been posted. Athletes stop here to find their group.

Chen Qiang also came to the China Stadium.

He was going to participate in the tryouts today, so he didn't pull the car, which was equivalent to giving himself a day off. Not only that, but Chen Qiang didn't start work yesterday, the purpose was to conserve his strength.

If you're competing at a high level, it's not enough to just rest for a day, and it's not enough to get back to your best. But this kind of low-level selection competition is enough to give Chen Qiang a day of rest.

Chen Qiang walked to the bulletin board and quickly found his name.

"There are five people in a group, I am in the fifth group, and there are Cui Linhai, Liu Shanjie, Zhang Yuan, and Du Kun in the same group as me, I don't know each other, and I don't remember these people. But it doesn't matter who the opponent is, I have to finish first overall. ”

Chen Qiang is now a little glad that he was placed in the fifth group, not the first group.

The trials are ranked based on their results, so the more players who appear later, the more advantageous they are. The player who came early definitely didn't know the results of the players behind them, while the players who came on late knew what the results of the players in front of them were. The later you appear, the more information you have about the game.

If Chen Qiang was placed in the first group, then he could only run once with all his might, because he didn't know what kind of strength the talent contestants behind him were. In case Chen Qiang has any reservations, the players behind him will overtake, and Chen Qiang will be eliminated.

On the contrary, if Chen Qiang appears in the back, then he will be able to grasp the results of the players in front of him, and with Chen Qiang's experience, as long as he gives him the results of some players as a reference, he will be able to estimate the results needed to advance. When the time comes, Chen Qiang can still leave some room for clumsiness.

……

Zhou Songling, Cui Linhai and other students from St. John's University also came to the bulletin board.

"Cui Linhai, look, Li Yongping of Hujiang University is in the second group, Liu Zhiyuan of Tongji University is in the eighth group, and you are in the fifth group." Zhou Songling pointed to the bulletin board and said.

Cui Linhai looked at the bulletin board and said, "I saw it, I don't know anyone in the same group as me." Shanjie Liu, Yuan Zhang, Kun Du, Qiang Chen. ”

"I don't know either, wait, what was your last name?" Zhou Songling asked suddenly.

"Chen Qiang. What's wrong? Do you know this person? Cui Linhai asked.

Zhou Songling immediately replied: "I remember that the coachman is called Chen Qiang!" You don't think you're in the same group as that driver! ”
