"Guided by Lee, Guided by Lee......"

Zhang Pingqiu shouted loudly to Li Zhizhong, who was a little stunned when he stood on the side of the track and field after the men's 100-meter rematch.

The 80,000 or 90,000 spectators in the Bird's Nest National Stadium, even if they didn't shout and cheer for the players, were just whispering and discussing with each other, or a few light coughs, drinking water and chewing sounds. With so many people, it was still possible to create a loud noise in the stadium that hummed like the roar of a machine.

"Huh?! What's wrong! ”

Li Zhizhong seemed to be awakened by Zhang Pingqiu's voice in his ears, so he came back to his senses slightly and turned his head to look at Zhang Pingqiu.

"It's time for us to go back."

Zhang Pingqiu pointed to the middle of the field, the men's 100-meter five groups of rematch has ended, and the women's 3000-meter obstacle course is about to start on the track.

"Oh, good!"

Li Zhizhong nodded, and followed Zhang Pingqiu along the sidelines towards the direction of Yongdao, but before leaving the arena, he glanced back at the runway and the full spectator stands, and his expression was slightly complicated.

"Xiao Zhang, was Su Zu the first in the semi-finals just now?" Entering the mixed area of Yongdao, Li Zhizhong seemed to have detached himself from the noisy emotions in the arena, and casually asked Zhang Pingqiu.

"The rematch is second, and the group leader is Jamaica's Usain Bolt." Zhang Pingqiu glanced at Li Zhizhong with a little surprise, Li Zhizhong was standing on the sidelines throughout the rematch, who was the first in the rematch, and he knew it.

"yes, okay."

Li Zhizhong replied in a calm voice, looking at the athletes who were coming in and out around him, the two didn't go almost, and then heard him ask at the beginning: "Xiao Zhang, is the semi-final arrangement out?" ”

"It's going to take a while, the organizing committee will notify us after the results are verified."

Zhang Pingqiu had already seen that something was wrong with Li Zhizhong at this time, although his expression was normal, there was obviously a bit of anxiety and trance in his eyes.

He has worked with Li Zhizhong for many years, and he knows a little about Lao Li. Although he is a coach from the bottom, he really deserves the words shrewd and strong, and he arranges Su Zu's life, training and games in an orderly manner. It's rare to feel so distracted like today.

"Director Li, are you alright?"

Zhang Pingqiu looked at Li Zhizhong's expression, and asked again, after all, this time is August, and the imperial capital is in the period of high temperature, and heat stroke and colds are still very easy to occur.

"Huh? Not...... It's okay...... what can I do?! ”

Li Zhizhong waved his hand slightly awkwardly, and walked through the mixed channel area first.

Zhang Pingqiu pursed his lips and shook his head slightly, this will know what happened to Lao Li.

After wandering through a few corridors, the two soon came to an athletes' lounge.

In the room, Su Zu was lying on the massage table, and the physiotherapist Jiang Daheng was giving him post-game muscle relaxation.

The competition that Su Zu will participate in this Olympic Games is the same as the last Athens Olympic Games, with men's 100 meters and 200 meters and 4×100 meters relay races.

The importance of a good physiotherapist for an athlete is self-evident, especially in the case of participating in a competition, a coach assistant or anything is optional, but a physiotherapist is indispensable.

After Li Zhizhong entered the room, he didn't say much, just found a seat and sat down directly, too quiet.

"Ahem!" Zhang Pingqiu coughed lightly, walked to Su Zu's side, and touched him lightly.

Su Zu looked up at Zhang Pingqiu, and saw that he was snorting in the direction of Li Zhizhong.

Su Zu turned his head to look at the other side again, and suddenly saw Li Zhizhong sitting on the chair a little distracted, and immediately got up and said to Jiang Daheng: "Master Jiang, I feel almost relaxed." Please go out and wait for us first, and I'll have a few words with Master. ”

"Huh?!" Jiang Daheng waited for his big eyes to glance at Su Zu, and glanced at Li Zhizhong, and suddenly came to his senses, clapped his hands and said, "Okay, Xiao Zhang and I will go out first." ”

When Jiang Daheng and Zhang Pingqiu both came out of the lounge, Su Zucai turned his head to look at Li Zhizhong, "Hey, Master, what are you thinking, so melancholy?" ”

"Are both gone?" Li Zhizhong raised his head and looked at the only two people left in the room, and asked a little strangely.

Su Zu did go directly to Li Zhizhong and sat down, directly rubbed his shoulder, and said, "Master, you won't be still worried about me, right?" ”

"Alas......" Li Zhizhong looked at the only two people left in the room, and his body that had just sat up straight fell slightly, sighed softly, and then shook his head again, revealing a somewhat helpless wry smile.

"When you broke the national record for the first time, I thought that we might have a chance to participate in the '08 Olympics, but I didn't expect to see you competing in the Bird's Nest today."

"Isn't that a bit of a comforting feeling?" Su Zu smiled.

"Go, you stinky boy."

Li Zhizhong scolded lightly, looked at the side, found two bottles of mineral water from the mineral water tank next to the seat, handed one to Su Zu, opened the bottle in his hand, and took a sip slowly, before smashing his mouth, as if he had drunk old wine.

"I never thought that we would come to this point, before I took over you, I already thought that I might be an ordinary coach in Hedao in this life, and give people a hand. Oh, who knows......"

As he spoke, Li Zhizhong poured saliva again, but never said the second half of the sentence again.

"Master, don't worry, I won't lose tomorrow."

Su Zu unscrewed the mineral water bottle, took a sip, looked at the somewhat cramped rest room, and said slowly.

has been with Li Zhizhong for many years, the two are also masters and fathers, and they know each other very well, from Li Zhizhong's demeanor when he enters the rest room, Su Zu knows that Li Zhizhong's heart is probably very anxious.

Su Zu still remembers that at the beginning he and Lao Li went to participate in the National Middle School Games, and at that time, Lao Li was always able to hold on, smiling and smiling.

In fact, inside, Su Zu knows very well that every time he competes, Li Zhizhong is the most nervous one. In the early games, Li Zhizhong would always take the trouble to repeatedly ask Su Zu before the game if he would be nervous, but in fact, it was just because he was nervous.

But as a head coach, Li Zhizhong is afraid of losing face in front of outsiders in order to maintain the image of a coach, and he has always been strong. And in front of Su Zu, he couldn't pass on his nervousness to Su Zu, but had to constantly cheer him up and relieve pressure.

However, today's performance, Su Zu can also clearly see that Lao Li is a little breathless.

Racing at the Bird's Nest is easy to say. But an athlete with a lot of expectations, under the eyes of countless Chinese people, faces opponents from all over the world, including the top athletes who have fought him in the past, and the current strongest who broke the world record he held just a few months ago.

And if you lose? Or underperforming?

That may be what Qianfu is referring to.

This is true both at home and abroad.

Under such an unparalleled alternation of pressure, although Su Zu could bear it, it was Lao Li who had been protecting him and sharing a lot with him.

In such a competition, the pressure on the head coach is not light, in addition to the pressure on and off the field, he also has concerns from the system and the athletes themselves.

In Su Zu's memory, he remembered the impact caused by Liu Yangyu's retirement, and his head coach Sun Pingjiang, a middle-aged man over fifty years old, choked up several times and shed tears at the press conference.

"You......" Li Zhizhong glanced up at Su Zu, shook his head slightly, and let out a sigh of admiration or emotion.

"It's good to have confidence, don't be affected by me, I just feel emotional. Don't worry about it, let go and run! It doesn't matter what the grades are. ”

"Hmm."

Su Zu held the mineral water bottle and threw it on the massage table casually, with seriousness in his eyes.

He understands Lee's worries and anxieties, and he himself feels the same pressure at the start of this year's Olympics, especially after Usain Bolt broke the world record.

However, it is never useful to suffer from gains and losses under pressure, and to face the fear of competitors.

Su Zu knew how to bear and face these invisible pressures.

He has been thinking about the past from time to time lately, thinking about the trajectory of his past life that has gradually faded from his memory.

Those countless nights of struggle and sighing, the despair and pain of countless times tossing and turning beds and wheelchairs, at that time, he no longer thought about what value life could have.

It was also at that time that he asked himself, what is his biggest regret?

The answer wasn't to make more money, not to avoid that accident, not to do everything he had done......

Rather, it was something he had thought about but failed to put into practice.

There are no risks taken, no dreams chased.

When he sat in a wheelchair and looked desperately at the sky, he thought most about the dreams of his youth.

And God gave him a chance to read the file and start over.

He did not hesitate to choose another life.

Become an athlete, gallop on the track, and realize the dream of chasing.

It's not people who choose their dreams, it's dreams that choose people.

When everything started all over again, he wanted to desperately grasp the dream that chose him.

The dream that belongs to him and touches his own.

Will the process be tough? Yes, it's hard. There are no shortcuts, and you will fall many times.

There are no smooth mountains in the world, and whoever wants to reach the top must first climb over a steep ridge.

You will feel stressed, bored, discouraged, and miserable.

But all this will be the inevitable problems that you will encounter when you embark on the road of competitive sports and achieve extraordinary achievements.

It's competitive sports, it's life!

I have regrets once, how can I repeat the mistakes of the past?!
