Chapter 419: Back to Yanjing
July 15th.
When Sheffield, England is about to usher in the annual Grand Prix, at this time, at the international exit of Yanjing Airport, all kinds of media from all walks of life from all walks of life are gathered here. In addition to this, there were many fans who greeted the airport, holding welcome banners aloft.
"This battle is much better than two years ago!"
Sun Shuai looked at the reporters around him and the many young boys and girls who had gathered, and his face couldn't help but show a little emotion.
"Brother Sun, how was it two years ago?"
Behind Sun Shuai was a young man with a camera hanging from his neck, and he couldn't help but ask curiously when he heard Sun Shuai's emotion.
The young man's name is Chu Zhengming, and he is a new intern at the portal where Sun Shuai is now working, and he has been running with him all this time.
More than two years have passed in a flash, Sun Shuai left Yichun that year, and then joined an online portal, and has been doing a good job since then.
The last time he picked up Ye Qin in Yanjing, he also made a big joke, and many media reporters rushed to interview Ye Qin, but he just thought of him as Liu Yangyu.
When he asked loudly at the pick-up port, "Has Liu Yangyu arrived", he was really embarrassed by a group of fellow seniors, and he couldn't wait to find a crack to drill down.
However, more than two years have passed, and this kind of thing has already been practiced, and if the same thing happens at this time, he can still face it without blushing and heartbeat, and he can even talk and laugh with other people.
Looking at Chu Zhengming, who had just walked out of the school gate, Sun Shuai coughed lightly, and then slowly said: "At that time, Ye Qin had just stepped on the international athletics arena, and he was famous, but where can he compare to today, he is now an international sports superstar, and he has a good opportunity to show his face in CCTV news this week." Liu Yangyu can't do this treatment. ”
Since Ye Qin broke the 10-second mark at the Doha Asian Games in December last year, he has run 10 seconds several times this year, and each time it has caused a huge sensation.
Especially last night, CCTV news broadcast, Ye Qin once again refreshed the Asian men's 100m record, 9.90 seconds, this result almost made everyone feel a strong and incredible feeling.
You must know that at this time last year, everyone was still skeptical about whether Ye Qin could break the 10-second mark, calculate the time, at that time, the World Youth Championships had not yet started, and Ye Qin had not even broken the national men's 100-meter record.
In the past year, he has improved the Asian men's 100m record to 9.90 seconds, and he won it after beating the current men's 100m world record holder Asafavier.
In the past two years, he has been in charge of the sports section of the portal, and Sun Shuai is no longer the newcomer who was a little ignorant about sports, but has a lot of well-known figures in the world of sports. Especially in the track and field event, Liu Yangyu in the 110-meter hurdles, his opponents, Alan Johnson and Trammel of the United States, Robles of Cuba, etc., are all familiar and cannot be more familiar.
In the men's sprint event, he first started with Ye Qin's men's 200m and 400 meters, and later with Ye Qin's men's 100 meters, he gradually became familiar with the men's 100 meters.
Records, the results of top athletes, and various training methods, although they are not as good as the coaches of real professional teams, a large number of game data and athlete information of various events flow through their hands, which can be said to be no worse than a senior track and field fan.
"That's amazing!" Chu Zhengming listened to Sun Shuai talk about Ye Qin's past, and a lot of admiration and excitement flashed in his eyes, "It's two years younger than me, it's really the pride of us Chinese." I wouldn't have believed it if someone had told me a few years ago that we were going to make such a huge improvement in sprinting, but you just watched him break the record again and again. Now the three men's records in the Asian men's 100m and 200m and 400m are all Ye Qin's, and if the world record is also when, it will really become a legend! ”
"It's so easy to think so much." Sun Shuai shook his head, thinking too much about this intern, as he learned more about the sprint event, the more he admired how difficult it was for Ye Qin to do what he was doing, and at the same time knew how difficult it was to reach the three world records that Chu Zhengming said.
The world record, which is the limit that human beings can currently reach, is the limit reached by billions of people, and if you calculate it according to probability, it is lower than winning the lottery.
Three world records are even more fantastic. In the current track and field sprint event, Michael Johnson has become a legend. It is the other party who occupies the two world records of the men's 200m and the men's 400m.
But even such a legendary athlete failed to run under 10 seconds in the men's 100m. And in the men's 100m records, the performance in the 200m and 400m is also much worse than Michael Johnson.
Therefore, Sun Shuai thinks that such a thing can only be put in everyone's mouths, occasionally teasing and laughing, and just talking. If you really want to take it seriously, it will make people laugh.
While the two were talking, the exit of the airport suddenly boiled.
With the sound of the camera shutter clicking, all kinds of magnesium lights flashed, and the already crowded exit was instantly crowded.
In front of a temporary press conference venue that the airport staff had set up long ago, Ye Qin stood in front of him with a little tiredness after a long flight, and waved to many media and spectators.
After getting off the plane, Ye Qin had already received a notice from the airport staff that there were a large number of media and track and field fans at the exit gate, whether they needed to leave through the VIP channel of the airport first.
Chen Zhongzhou suggested that Ye Qin go directly to the training bureau and take a good rest, during this period of his trip to Europe, the intensity of the competition and the competition in various places are still relatively hard.
Coupled with the long flight from Italy to Yanjing, it is enough to make people mentally exhausted for a while, and it is not suitable to attend such a scene.
However, Ye Qin finally rejected the offer to leave first, and was ready to give a simple interview here to meet some track and field fans.
From leaving to participate in the competition in May this year to returning now, more than two months, he still wants to see his supporters in his heart.
On the other hand, the advice of his agent, Max Essenbard, if possible, he still needs to maintain exposure beyond the competition and establish a suitable external image among the public and track and field enthusiasts.
Since Max Essenbad became Yechin's agent, he has not done much in the past six months, one is that the other party has other agent business, and the other is that Yechin is now in the competition period, and the main goal is to compete, and he does not need to get involved in other business activities too much.
Especially before the World Championships, Max Essenbaard clearly knew what Yechin needed to do most during this time, and did not bother Yechin with various commercially packaged activities.
When Ye Qin's figure appeared before the temporary press conference, the entire airport exit instantly boiled.
has already gathered a lot of media and track and field fans, but with the news of Ye Qin's return to China, more and more people immediately surrounded by three layers inside and outside.
Ye Qin also briefly answered some reporters' questions at first, took photos of some track and field fans, signed their names, and finally looked at more and more people, under the advice of the airport staff, for fear of causing any unnecessary safety problems, and finally could only advise everyone to leave quickly.
Many media workers are still unsatisfied, Ye Qin has always lived in a shallow position and rarely accepts media interviews, and they really don't want to miss such an opportunity.
Seeing that it didn't end well, Ye Qin could only quickly answer a few more questions, including Sun Shuai, who had squeezed through layers of crowds and arrived in the front row.
Ye Qin didn't have any impression of Sun Shuai, but after the other party asked a question, Ye Qin immediately remembered the other party.
The question is very simple, Sun Shuai asked: "Ye Qin, how many championships are you confident of winning at the Osaka World Championships this time?" ”
As soon as this question was asked, it caused the media present and many track and field fans to cheer, and in the field of men's sprinting, there was finally such a world-class athlete, and the question was no longer what the results were, or how many championships could be won.
Ye Qin also replied directly, at least one championship, if you can, preferably two!
