"Hi guys, hello!"

While Ye Qin and Yang Yao were communicating about their recent training and competitions, a white man in a suit and a middle-aged black man in sportswear came to the track and field at some point.

It was the white man in a suit and leather shoes who spoke, with very little hair, looking a bit like movie star Kevin Spacey, wearing a pair of glasses, both of them were about forty or fifty years old, seeing Ye Qin and Yang Yao, they seemed to have a little strange look on their faces at first, and then suddenly showed a look of surprise and said, "You are Ye Qin, am I right, buddy?"

The other party was a little embarrassed when he said his name in English, but Ye Qin still heard that the other party was calling him.

"Yes, I'm Ye Qin, may I ask who you are?" Ye Qin glanced at the white man a little strangely, not knowing how the other party recognized him, but he still shook hands with the other party very politely.

"Haha, it's really you." The white man smiled heartily, "You are a very good young man, I have seen your performance in the Olympic Games, as a Chinese athlete, it is incredible to be able to break into the finals of the Olympic Games." ”

"Oh, thank you!" Ye Qin nodded slightly, to be honest, at this moment, Ye Qin was somewhat surprised.

How influential are the Olympics? Any person you meet in the U.S. can get to know me?

In his impression, not to mention ordinary Americans, it is ordinary Chinese, and many people do not necessarily know him for his men's 200-meter run in the Olympic Games and finishing sixth. After all, he is not Liu Yangyu, who has refreshed the breakthrough of Chinese men's track and field gold medals in the Olympic Games and has become the darling of Chinese and foreign media.

Of course, it is not excluded that the white man in front of him may be someone who works in athletics, so it is not surprising that he can be recognized.

The white man smiled and suddenly patted his forehead lightly, "Oh, sorry, I forgot to introduce myself, I'm Victor Conte, probably you don't know me." But that's okay......"

Then he pointed to the middle-aged black man next to him, and introduced with a smile, "But, the one next to me, you must have heard, is the coach of Olympic champion Jax Thelin, Mr. Trafford Graham." Meanwhile, Mr Trafford Graham is also the coach of Olympic 200m champion Sean Crowder and the coach of female flyer Marion Jones. ”

Speaking of Trafford-Graham, Ye Qin was still a little confused, but the other party introduced him as a coach of several Olympic champions, and Ye Qin reacted to his feelings, feeling that this is a famous champion coach in the United States. And it's a sprint event, just listening to the series of big names in the back, the qualifications are not inferior to Randy Hunter and Clyde Hart.

However, he didn't think much about it, and there was a lot of emotion in his heart that the top coach of American track and field was really a big feeling, and not long after arriving in the United States, he casually bumped into a top coach like Trafford Graham at Baylor University.

Yang Yao on the side was slightly excited, he has been here for a long time, and it has been almost half a year now, where can there be such an idea as Ye Qin. Even though he has been in contact with many well-known athletes and coaches in the American track and field world under Clyde Hart, it is rare to encounter a top coach like Trafford Graham, and it is natural that he will not want to miss out on such an opportunity to meet him.

This is like those footballers who are still playing in the lower leagues, and they meet Pep Guardiola and Ferguson by chance, although they are not so excited that they are incoherent, but the throbbing in their hearts is still inevitable.

In competitive sports, a coach who has a great track record of success and has brought out top athletes is fatal to the attraction of an athlete, even if the other party cannot coach you at this time, but who can guarantee that it will not be possible in the future.

"Hello, young man." Trafford-Graham nodded faintly at the two of them, seemingly maintaining a somewhat arrogant attitude.

"Hello Mr. Graham, I'm Yang Yao, an athlete from China!" Yang Yao hurriedly stretched out his hand and shook hands with the other party.

Ye Qin watched Yang Yao's performance, the corners of his mouth twitched silently, and then he also moved forward and shook hands with the two. Although they don't know the two, they definitely won't be looking for him and Yang Yao when they think about it.

Sure enough, after a few simple greetings, the white man Victor Conte patted Ye Qin and Yang Yao on the shoulders, took out a business card and handed it to the two of them: "Young men, I am the president of Balk Company, specializing in athlete nutrition and health care, if you don't do well in the competition in the future, you can come to me." ”

As he spoke, Victor Conte also showed a mysterious smile, "Trust me, Balk is worthy of your trust!" ”

"Athlete nutrition?"

After watching the two leave, the other party finally said an advertising word, Ye Qin couldn't help but be a little funny.

Looking at the business card in his hand and looking at it, his English skills are getting better, there is no difficulty in understanding the content of a business card, and he doesn't see anything abnormal when he flips through it, but he feels that the other party is a little strange when he introduces his products, how can a big boss of a company hand over business cards like a salesman.

"Brother Yang, have you heard of this Baker company?"

Yang Yao shook his head, his English is relatively poor, although he has improved to a certain extent after coming to the United States, but at most he just watches some entertainment programs, and he still doesn't understand it, and he still doesn't understand this.

"Go back and ask the coach."

Ye Qin stuffed the other party's business card directly back into the bag he carried on the sidelines, and didn't think too much about the two people who appeared for a while, but instead continued to return to the track and field for adaptive training.

There isn't much time left until Eugene, and it's important for him to come to the United States for the first time, so he still needs to adapt a little bit to the weather, adjust to the jet lag, and maintain his competitive form.

……

On the other side, out of the track and field of Baylor University, Trafford-Graham, a black man who had not spoken much, glanced at the white man next to him with dissatisfaction, and said angrily: "Victor, you are too high-profile!" Now when is it, you'd better put away the set you used to be a salesman, this is the last time I'll help you. ”

"Help me?" Victor Conte stretched out his index finger and shook it, "No, no, it's helping each other, and, didn't you see, Clyde Hart swept us out of the house without mercy." ”

"So you're selling your 'product' directly to two Chinese athletes who are training? My Grand President & Founder Sir? Trafford-Graham sneered.

"Don't let go of any potential prospects, Tratford, you don't know how to do business. As for the two Chinese, ha, they are not big fish yet. Victor Conte chuckled, "I'm just testing that maybe I can move to Asia after the U.S. can't open the market." Hehe, speaking of which, that Ye Qin, I have seen the results of the other party's Olympic Games, sixth place in the 200 meters, what an incredible yellow man, if he can follow the systematic plan I built, maybe he can win the gold medal in their country's Olympics in 08? Of course, it would be nice to meet the hurdler who is now making a world sensation. ”

"Damn, can you not keep your mouth shut, low-key, low-key." Trafford-Graham almost had their lungs blown.

Especially when he heard the phrase "they are not big fish yet", Trafford Graham almost turned his face on the spot, which is what he said when he approached Victor Conte.

At that time, he learned about Victor Conte's 'product' by chance from his disciple Montgomery, and proposed to Victor Conte that Montgomery's strength at this time was not enough, even if he took the 'product', he could not achieve any excellent results, and he was not a big fish. The focus should be on Marion Jones, the big fish.

The first few years of the two were very pleasant together, but now, with a series of things going on in the drug test, Trafford Graham is becoming more and more dissatisfied with Victor Clearing, who is a big-mouthed, high-profile, eye-catching person who almost wishes the whole world knew.

Atralford-Graham knew that his coach from Jamaica could establish himself in the American athletics scene and bring out excellent sprinters time and time again, and that he was inseparable from the "product" of Victor Clearing, but now, he has shrugged himself away.

If it weren't for some threat from the other party this time, he had to make this trip with the other party to contact Clyde Hart, he would never have traveled with the other party.

Victor Conte couldn't help but snort softly as he looked at the Jamaican-born black coach in front of him. The two were already a bit of a disagreement, especially when their protégé Tim Montgomery broke the world record in 2002 and refused to thank him, which had already buried a rift.

This time, Victor Conte came to meet Clyde Hart, in addition to peddling his own set of products, more also hopes to use the coach's influence in the industry to speak for him at a critical moment, and the federal court indicted him in the recent period.

After leaving Baylor University, the two people who traveled all the way didn't say anything more, each got into their own cars, and went their separate ways.
