Under the rostrum of the playground of Nanxiu No. 1 Middle School, Nie Fangping, one of the referees of this year's Municipal Middle School Student Games, was explaining the work of the afternoon with several male and female referees with a serious expression.

There was a little mistake in the morning's work, and the timing error of the 100-meter preliminaries for the girls in the junior high school group was quite large, although it was remedied in time, and not many people paid attention or caused trouble, but he still cautiously reminded the referees again.

As a coach of a sports school, it is naturally not difficult to be a part-time referee of the Nanxiu City Middle School Games. However, some referees on the scene didn't cheer up much, and they still had to give a few words.

"Coach Nie, Coach Nie ......"

Nie Fangping was communicating softly with the other coaches when a voice suddenly came from the side.

Nie Fangping slowly raised his head and looked in the direction where the voice came from, and it was the male teacher surnamed Peng who was assigned by Nanxiu No. 1 Middle School to assist him in his work, "Teacher Peng, what's wrong?" ”

"Coach Nie, excuse me." The male teacher surnamed Peng smiled and suddenly pointed behind him, "Someone is looking for you here." ”

"Someone looking for me?"

Nie Fangping had some doubts on his face, and after seeing the person who was looking for him clearly, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on a round face that was a little fat, and he laughed and shouted, "Oh, my Coach Zhao, when did you come back?" ”

"Hey, don't don't, I said Coach Nie, you're shouting too much."

The person who came was a middle-aged man in his forties, compared to Nie Fangping's short and fat body, the other party looked much thinner and taller, and he was also full of smiles.

"What's over, your big coach has a high rating, and I am not allowed to shout like this!"

Nie Fangping walked up to the man and joked with the other party with a big laugh.

"You are ......" Zhao Youcheng stretched out his finger and shook his head helplessly, "I'm just a first-class, I don't have the face to meet Nanxiu again when you call me like this." ”

"Hey, don't fool me, you're a first-level coach who is about to reach the national level." Nie Fangping chuckled, then put away his joking tone, stretched out his hand and shook Zhao Youcheng gently, "Xiao Zhao, welcome you back!" ”

"Coach Nie, old Nie, it's really been a long time!"

Zhao Youcheng looked at Nie Fangping and sighed with emotion, this big brother used to help him a lot, the hairline of the last meeting was not as high as it is now, and most of his head was exposed when he met again.

He came out of Nanxiu Sports School, and it has been several years for a while, although there are also phone calls in the middle, but after the unit is transferred, everyone is busy with work, and there are too many people who have to support their families and careers after middle age, and they have not been able to find a suitable opportunity to meet.

"Why did you come back all of a sudden?" Nie Fangping shook hands with Zhao Youcheng, stepped aside and stood side by side with Zhao Youcheng, looking at the playground in the distance.

"This time I came to exchange and learn with the provincial team, and it happened to be not far away, so I came back to see it."

Zhao Youcheng said slowly with a smile, raised his head and looked inside and outside the playground, pointed to the youthful students, and said with a smile: "Heh, I didn't expect to catch up with a big battle, what, Coach Nie, do you have any suitable seedlings?" ”

"What so many good seedlings!" Nie Fangping shook his head slightly, several coaches from their sports school came over to assist as referees, and they didn't have the idea of selecting and writing suitable potential seedlings.

Of course, it is mainly concentrated in junior high school students, and in most regions and cities in China, there are actually some coaches of sports schools or professional teams mixed in.

Saying that, Nie Fangping seemed to remember the 400-meter preliminaries he had just seen, and continued: "You're here, it's also a coincidence, you can see if there is a suitable one by the way." By the way, Xiao Zhao, do you remember Yan Ning, a female player in my team before? ”

"Yan Ning, ......" Zhao Youcheng thought for a while, and suddenly clapped his hands lightly, "Remember, that little girl was quite stubborn when she was in sports school, although it didn't last long, I was still very impressed." I heard that there were some twists and turns later, and finally went to the provincial team, right? How's it going? ”

"She, after retiring, became a physical education teacher in Xiushui County." Nie Fangping said softly, and paused again, "This time, she led the team over, and there was a student inside, I looked pretty good." ”

"Oh, what's the project?"

"400 meters, I think you're a big coach, if you're interested, you can take a look. In the first year of high school, the preliminaries were 51.59 seconds. Nie Fangping looked at Zhao Youcheng with his eyes and reported a set of numbers.

"Well, that's not bad."

Zhao Youcheng nodded, it's only December now, and the calculation time means that the first year of high school is only three months old, and it is still okay to run this result in the first year of high school.

"However, Lao Nie, our Nanxiu City is not a track event, it is all in your sports school, I will go back to your sports school to take a look, and it will not be a pearl in the dust."

"Let's take a look first." Nie Fangping pointed to the men's 400-meter final that was about to start, "Don't say it, I think if you really want to get your team, you will definitely not lose." ”

Zhao Youcheng shook his head and smiled lightly, and didn't say much, a high school student after more than 51 seconds of 400 meters is rare, but it really doesn't make him much concerned.

However, he is also willing to sell Nie Fangping a face, not to mention the rest, to see if it is really suitable.

……

"Yu Hongwu, Yu Hongwu!"

"Li Yongliang, come on!"

"Come on, come on, Sun Ming first!"

……

In front of the starting line of the men's 400m final in the high school group, castanets and shouts rang out from the crowd from time to time.

The men's 400m preliminaries in the morning have attracted a lot of people's attention, and in the afternoon finals, several middle schools with shortlisted athletes have gathered around the students.

Ye Qin stood behind the starting block of the fourth lane, gently rubbing the surface of the plastic track with his spiked shoes, his chest and abdomen rose and fell, and he took a deep breath to calm his mood.

The atmosphere was very lively, and the opponent was obviously stronger, but Ye Chin's mentality was much better than in the morning.

After running a preliminaries, he gradually found the feeling of competition, confident, determined, even in the city's middle school sports meeting, he was still the fastest runner.

When he stood on the track in the morning, the sudden impact of the race, the dense crowd and the loud shouts inadvertently made him nervous.

And in the afternoon, he was obviously much more relaxed in the face of such a scene.

After the results of the preliminaries came out, Ye Qin had a clear positioning of his results, he was the first in the preliminaries, nearly 0.5 seconds faster than the second place in the preliminaries, although Yan Ning said that the second and third places may have reservations, so that he should not be careless, but Ye Qin did not have the slightest fear in his heart.

Ye Qin first glanced at Yu Hongwu of the fifth Nanxiu No. 1 Middle School, and then slowly turned around and glanced at Li Yongliang of the third Jianping No. 1 Middle School intentionally or unintentionally, Yan Ning introduced the two of them to him at noon, both of them were former sports school students in Nanxiu City, and later graduated from junior high school and did not continue to practice sports in the sports school, but began to enter high school with their sports expertise.

Several key middle schools in Nanxiu City naturally do not have special sports recruits for the high school entrance examination like Xiushui County, and several middle schools in Nanxiu No. 1 Middle School, No. 2 Middle School, No. 9 Middle School, and Jianping No. 1 Middle School No. 2 Middle School have students with sports specialties.

Yan Ning analyzed to Ye Qin that his main opponents in this final were these two former sports school students, Yu Hongwu was a sophomore in high school, and Li Yongliang was a senior in high school. After high school, it is a sports specialty student, and there is naturally a lot of training, coupled with physical development, although the two of them have worse results in the preliminaries than Ye Qin, but when it comes to strength, it is still difficult to get an exact answer.

"Each in place......

Just after Ye Qin glanced at the two of them back and forth, the sound of the on-site starter's command sounded again, and the passwords of each person seemed to be vaguely reduced to three words in place.

Ye Qin exhaled lightly, shook his arms and shoulders, patted the muscles in his thighs, and walked onto the starting gear.
