Chapter 282: Returning to China

"Win, win!"

On the sidelines, Chen Zhongzhou and Zhuang Wei hugged each other cheering at the same time.

In the third Grand Prix, Ye Qin won the championship again, although it is no longer the men's 400m event, but the men's 200m event is already very remarkable.

There are not many domestic athletes who can participate in the Grand Prix now, not to mention winning three stations in a row, among the current domestic track and field athletes, Liu Yangyu is the only one who can have the strength to win three consecutive games in the Track and Field Grand Prix.

However, Liu Yangyu failed to win gold again at the New York Grand Prix, before the men's 200m race, the men's 110m hurdles had ended, and the final result was that Liu Yangyu was third with a time of 13.11 seconds. The first and second places were won by American Alan Johnson and Dominic Arnold in 13.03 and 13.05 seconds, respectively.

But Yechin won!

Ye Qin won the first IAAF Grand Prix in Osaka, Eugene and New York, especially in Eugene and New York, which are the strongest countries in the world in track and field.

"Well done!"

Randy Hunter's tense expression, the moment he saw the results on the big screen, suddenly melted away like ice and snow in the sun.

There was only a smile on his face, this time he returned to the United States to compete, and in the two consecutive Grand Prix, Ye Qin showed a better level than his tone, which made him feel quite excited.

Old friends from the past knew that when he went to China to coach, they made fun of him, and even the media questioned him from time to time. After Eugene, Yechin has given a strong response to win the 400m. And in this men's 200-meter race, he believes that it can make many people speechless.

A time of 20.25 seconds is already the standard of a first-class athlete, and even in the National Championships and the U.S. Olympic Trials, if you are lucky, you may be able to finish in the top six and top three.

Especially in this race, Walter Dix and Wallace Spearmon, who won and won the men's 200m at this year's NCAA track and field championships, were regarded by the American track and field community as the champions of the 200m event in the next few years, but he also lost to Yechin in this race.

Athletes have their ups and downs, but winning is winning.

Competitive sports see only the results in the end!

……

"Congratulations, Number 100!"

On the track near the finish line, the athletes who had already watched the results of each person on the big screen on the scene gradually relieved their nervousness.

Ye Qin walked to Yusse Both's side, stretched out his hand and made a simple hug with the other party, Yusey Bot showed a somewhat reluctant smile on his face, his voice was low, and he seemed to congratulate Ye Qin with a little unwillingness.

"Thank you!"

Ye Qin smiled and thanked Yusse Both, then looked at the other party and said very seriously, "I won this game by luck, if you are at your best, I can't win." ”

These are Yechin's words, he won the championship by a narrow margin and created his PB, but he knows in his heart that he is not far from Yusse Bote, and he is now almost at the level of Yusai Bot in 2003.

At the 2003 Jamaica High School Championships, Yusse Bot had already reached 20.25 and 45.35 seconds in the 200m and 400m. Later, when Yusse Bot shifted his focus to the 200m, he ran a time of 20.13 seconds at the Pan American Junior Championships.

In 2004, Yusse-Bot was even better, setting a world junior record of 19.93 seconds in the men's 200m at the Caribbean Games.

If it weren't for the defeat at the Olympics, if he had been able to compete at his best in Athens, it is likely that Yusse Bot would have made a name for himself by this time. His best time in the 200m was the runner-up even in the final of the men's 200m at the Olympics.

"A loss is a loss." Yusse Bot shook his head, "Number 100, you have improved a lot, much better than our World Junior Championships in Sherbrooke and last year's Olympics. But in the next game, I'm going to win it back! ”

Yusse-Bot smiled and turned away from the track.

He's not someone he can't afford to lose, and it's normal to win or lose in athletics. But he was still a little surprised to lose to Ye Qin in this game, he knows his own state very well, he feels that he is in good shape now, but it may be because he is still in the correction period of scoliosis, which inevitably affects his performance on the field.

But......

When he left the game, he saw his coach with a shy stomach and a calm look in his eyes, and suddenly felt a little weak.

"When I go back, I should probably have to train a little harder."

After a brief exchange with Yusse-Both, Ye Chin then gave a brief handshake and hug to several other athletes, and then turned around and was about to leave the track.

After the men's 200m, there are other races to be played, and staying for a long time will affect the subsequent races.

As soon as he walked to the sidelines, Ye Qin suddenly saw several American reporters appear, one of whom was an American female reporter he had an impression of before the game, and her eyes were a little curious.

Ye Qin looked at this battle and was a little blindsided, it was just a matter of having Randy Hunter before the game, he was a little light, how could he suddenly have so many reporters around him after the game.

After all, it's just a Grand Prix.

……

"Randy, there should be no problem with Ye Chin, right?"

On the sidelines, Chen Zhongzhou saw reporters surrounding Ye Qin, and he became a little nervous.

After Ye Qin finished in Eugene, there were no reporters who came to interview him, but after winning the Grand Prix in two consecutive races, the meaning of this was completely different.

In particular, Randy Hunter's introduction before the game really pushed Yechin to the American sports media, and he was a little worried that Yechin would not be able to deal with it well.

After all, Ye Qin is still young now, and even Liu Yangyu has always been careful when dealing with reporters and media interviews in foreign competitions.

"Don't worry, Chen." Randy Hunter smiled indifferently and didn't care at all, "It's an athlete's upbringing, he not only needs to face the field, but he also has to get used to the spotlight." ”

In the United States, well-known athletes face media interviews, do not attend too many commercial activities, personal achievements, exposure, commercial endorsements, etc. are themselves a way to support commercial sports.

Chen Zhongzhou saw Randy Hunter say this, and relaxed a little, but his eyes still glanced at Ye Qin's place from time to time, and for a while, he had a little strange thoughts in his heart.

"This kid just graduated from high school, how can he learn English well."

The biggest factor that many domestic athletes do not have foreign reporters to interview, in addition to the requirements within the team, there is also a problem of language, many athletes are young to enter sports schools, and then professional teams and national teams, basically do not have much time to learn English.

When you go abroad to compete, you need to have team leaders, translators and other staff, otherwise you won't be able to pass the language barrier. Even a lot of English signs, short English rules, command passwords, etc., need to be specially trained.

Liu Yangyu's popularity in the United States is actually not low, but due to the language, the time to be interviewed is not very much. And after Ye Qin was introduced by Randy Hunter once before the game, many reporters on the scene knew that there was no obstacle to communicate with him, and after he won the championship, there were naturally more people chasing after him.

Moreover, Chen Zhongzhou actually knows that the media present are actually mostly magazines and newspapers in various sports and athletics, and there is still no real large-scale and influential media. At this point, it is mainly a matter of the level and audience of the competition, but in any case, at least Ye Qin is already known to the American athletic world.

"Okay, Chen, don't worry about this little guy, I trust his performance."

Randy Hunter smiled and said again, adding, "Prepare, we're getting ready to go home." ”

"Okay."

Chen Zhongzhou nodded, and when he heard Randy say the word "go home", his mind was still a little dazed for a while, and he had been abroad for more than a month before he knew it. And Randy Hunter, as an American, does not mean his home in the United States, but in China.

This made Chen Zhongzhou, a native of China, somewhat uncomfortable, and couldn't help but admire it secretly in his heart.

The next Grand Prix in June is basically Europe, like Athens on June 14, but with the current schedule, it is simply impossible to catch up, and the training purpose of taking Yechin to participate in the Grand Prix has been achieved, and the results are gratifying, and now it can come to an end.

As for the Golden League, which started in July, Ye Qin did not receive an invitation to participate before, and the Golden League adopted an invitation system, and invited players for their results and points.

Ye Qin's points and rankings have not yet fully risen, but I believe that after the results of this station are counted by the IAAF, it will not be a problem to continue to participate in the Golden League in the future.

After the New York Grand Prix ended, Ye Qin's team and Liu Yangyu's team also parted ways.

Liu Yangyu will fly directly from New York to Paris, France, where he will prepare for the Golden League on July 1.
