Chapter 278: The Opening of the 10th National Games

Time has entered the end of the National Day holiday, at this time, the major sports newspapers and websites in China have moved from the Magic Grand Prix and the second China Open to the upcoming National Games.

Jinling is the host city of the 10th National Games, which is the first time that the National Games has adopted the form of bidding to determine the organizer of the comprehensive large-scale games, and it is also the last national comprehensive sports event in China before the 08 Olympic Games, which is regarded as a comprehensive drill for the Olympic Games.

At the same time, as the organizer of the event, it has also made attempts in many aspects such as venue construction, event organization, and information technology, accumulating a lot of experience for the Olympic Games in three years.

What is more interesting is that the mascot of this National Games is taken from the traditional "Qilin", and it is named "Jinlin" after the animation comic, which is homophonic to the host city.

On October 11, after the Suzu Xinzhuang training base was renovated for a period of time, it set off to Jinling to participate in this year's National Games.

The National Games are held every four years, four years ago, Su Zu was just reborn, has not yet entered the field of sports, and four years later, he is already the hottest athlete in China, the winner of three Olympic medals, the World Championships 100 meters, 200 meters double champion, Asian men's sprint record holder.

With so many titles, no matter which one of them is enough to make people the focus of media pursuit, not to mention that these are all unique to Su Zu alone. As soon as Su Zu arrived in Jinling, he was surrounded by many domestic media, and this move of the media caused a large number of passers-by to watch, and finally he was able to get out under the arrangement of the armed police and security staff in charge of public security maintenance.

From the side, it can also be seen that Su Zu's huge popularity at this time, when the previous Magic City Grand Prix broke his personal record, he also appeared on the news network again. With the continuous reporting of the domestic news media, it can be said that there are very few people in China who do not know Su Zu at this time.

This is Su Zu's first time participating in the National Games, but no one will guess whether Su Zu can win the national championship.

Although some media have previously exposed that Su Zu is suspected of being injured after the Grand Prix, this point has not been clearly responded to by Li Zhizhong and other members of the coaching staff.

On the night of Su Zu's arrival in Jinling, in addition to dealing with the endless media, he also had a very important meeting.

"How's the preparation?"

After a brief dinner, Li Zhizhong knocked on Su Zu's door.

"Master, do you need to be so formal?"

In the room, Su Zu had just taken a shower, wearing a well-fitting formal suit, and looked at Li Zhizhong who walked in a little uncomfortably. In this life, most of the time is spent on the track and field, Su Zu does not have a few clothes to attend formal occasions, most of the time the athletes wear sportswear, but the person he sees tonight is more important, so he prepared this outfit in advance.

"Of course I do."

Li Zhizhong walked up to Su Zu to help him tidy up his outfit, took a step back and looked up and down, Su Zu's body shape itself is very good, he is wearing sportswear on weekdays, and it is quite eye-catching when he suddenly puts on a formal suit.

Li Zhizhong smiled with satisfaction, "Very spiritual, tonight is someone who wants to see you by name, this is an honor, maybe you will have the opportunity to walk on that stage in the future." Didn't Fredericks join the Athletics Federation after retiring? ”

Su Zu was a little helpless, but he also knew that this matter could not be shirked, especially to a certain extent, he already had the color of national symbols, and before the Olympic Games, he would definitely be pushed out as an image representative.

19 o'clock in the evening, Jinling Hotel.

Su Zu followed several leaders of the organizing committee into a spacious meeting room, and an elegant white old man in the living room got up from his seat with a smile and greeted several people after seeing a few people enter.

"Sue, congratulations on breaking your personal record again!" The old white man shook hands with Su Zu and congratulated him.

"Thank you, Mr. Rogge." Su Zu humbly expressed his gratitude.

The old white man standing in front of him was none other than the current president of the International Olympic Committee, Jacques Rogge.

This meeting is of a very high standard in the various occasions that Su Zu has experienced, the national leaders have left, but in the meeting room, there are still leading officials of the General Administration, accompanied by the officials of the 10th National Games.

As an athlete, Su Zu was able to appear on such an occasion, which was a huge recognition of his achievements at home and abroad. Compared to ordinary world champions, he broke a lot of boundaries and became a business card, which is very symbolic.

"Sue, your achievements are limitless, and with such a great motherland behind me, I very much look forward to you being able to create new brilliance again. I used to be a doctor, and as a doctor, if I had a tumor, I had to remove it, squeeze out the pus, and heal my body. Once something goes wrong, I try to figure out the crux of the problem as soon as possible and try to fix it. ”

During the dinner, Jacques Rogge and Suzu talked about the doping problem he faced after being elected president of the Olympic Committee, saying that Suzu had the strictest tests in all categories, but all of them passed the tests without any problems. This made him very pleased, and at the same time, he was sincerely happy about the progress of China's sports industry, and hoped that Su Zu could continue to work hard to maintain it.

In the official words of the press, Mr. Rogge, the president of the Olympic Committee, and Su Zu had a series of cordial conversations.

After leaving the Jinling Hotel, Li Zhizhong, who had been waiting outside, looked extremely excited, and patted Su Zu's shoulder from time to time.

"Master, are you so happy? People who don't know think you've been promoted again! Su Zu smiled and made a joke with Li Zhizhong.

"You're too young to understand what that means."

Li Zhizhong shook his head and said with an excited expression: "You should read some books when you go back, I really didn't expect to be able to get to today." ”

Su Zu looked at Li Zhizhong and the others, smiled, and sighed slightly in his heart. With the improvement of his grades, the trajectory of his and Li Zhizhong's lives has changed unimaginably. And Lao Li is obviously looking forward to what he is looking forward to in the future.

On the morning of October 12, Su Zu prepared to conduct simple adaptive training for the athletes' training base next to the hotel, but because there were too many onlookers and ordinary people, he only hastily carried out a few events in the end.

In the evening, Su Zu came to the Jinling Olympic Sports Center in advance, and in view of his current achievements and influence, he was specially invited by the organizing committee to be the last torchbearer to enter the stadium and light the torch of the 10th National Games.
