When Randy Hunter walked into the massage room from outside the door, Ye Qin's physiotherapy was almost over, but the three of them did not leave, Ye Qin and Zhuang Wei were both sitting in chairs, listening to what Chen Zhongzhou was saying.

He had just briefly discussed with Clyde Hart and Michael Johnson about the technical characteristics and problems of Yechin, although they did not directly explain the problems completely, and many things could not be analyzed in a few words.

But one of the best men's 400m athletes, the other is the coach of the best athletes, the two watched the test on the spot, watched the video, and based on their respective competition and training experience, some opinions were pointed out, which made Randy Hunter feel inspired.

"Am I missing something?"

Looking at the appearance of several people sitting in a precarious position, Randy Hunter first showed a little doubt, and then laughed again, "Ye Qin, Chen, and Zhuang, are you in a meeting?" ”

During this time in China, Randy Hunter felt that the biggest discomfort was that many officials would always get involved in sports training, pure laymen, but always wanted to point fingers at professional people.

And the most common means of this is to hold meetings as they do now.

In fact, it is not uncommon to hold meetings in China and the United States, or in other large enterprises.

Randy Hunter once heard a friend who was already in the top management of a listed company talk about the fact that there are not many issues that can really solve the discussion in the matter of meetings, but in some systems, it is an indispensable thing. Because sometimes the purpose of the meeting is not to communicate and solve problems, but only one purpose, that is, to establish authority. Tell everyone who has the final say and makes the decision.

Of course, this is just a private complaint from the other party, in fact, a lot of communication is indispensable, but if it only stays in the discussion stage, without specific results and follow-up operations, Randy Hunter is not very acceptable.

"Randy, there's something very important for you to talk to."

After Randy Hunter entered the door, Chen Zhongzhou consciously stood up and walked in front of the other party with a rather solemn expression.

"What's going on, Chen?" Randy Hunter keenly caught a hint of solemnity in Chen Zhongzhou's expression, and asked at a slower pace.

"Look at this, this is what Ye Qin received." Chen Zhongzhou didn't explain much, but directly handed over the business card that Ye Qinrang had rummaged through.

Although he doesn't quite understand the specific meaning of this business card, he always feels that something is not right when he thinks about "nutrition products" and the famous Olympic champion Dajiaotou.

After Randy Hunter took the business card, he was a little casual at first, but then he just glanced at it, and his face changed suddenly in an instant, and he suddenly raised his head and looked at Ye Qin with a cold expression, "Have you been in contact with them?" ”

"Coach, before today's test, Yang Yao and I met two people in the athletics field, one is called Victor Conte, and the other is a coach who claims to be Jax Thelin, called Traver Graham. This was handed to me by the guy named Victor Conte. ”

Ye Qin opened his mouth and replied, he was actually a little inexplicable, just now Chen Zhongzhou simply said something about illegal drugs in the country to him, and he faintly felt something.

"Damn bastard!" Randy Hunter cursed a rare foul word, with a faint anger on his face, and in a few clicks, the business card in his hand was completely shattered.

He met the two of them when he was on Clyde Hart's side today, but he just avoided them at the time, but he didn't expect the other party to find the athlete he was carrying, which made Randy Hunter very angry at the moment.

Raising his head and looking at Ye Qin, he said very solemnly: "Ye Qin, Chen, Zhuang, I hope you must not touch and contaminate them, especially Victor Conte. Yechin, you know, he could ruin you. ”

"So serious?!"

Ye Qin was a little surprised, with his age and experience, as well as the things he had come into contact with, it was not enough to see the seriousness of the problem.

However, Chen Zhongzhou briefly emphasized and said that some foreign nutritional products may be illegal drugs, and in some cases in the United States, strangers peddle all kinds of drugs and the like, so you must be careful.

Although you may not buy it, it is likely to cause unnecessary trouble in the process of contact.

Randy Hunter also saw that Ye Qin didn't have enough concept of these things, and hesitated for a moment before suddenly saying to Zhuang Wei on the side, "Zhuang, please go to the door and watch, I'm going to give Ye Qin a good lesson." ”

"Huh? Good. ”

Zhuang Wei also sensed that something was wrong from the looks of several people, and although he also wanted to hear what Randy Hunter wanted to say, he still stood up and walked towards the door.

There is no door lock in this room in the physiotherapy room, and it is free to enter and exit for Yang Yao and Jiang Bo. Randy Hunter is so cautious, he naturally doesn't dare to slack off.

"Victor Conte, a cancer in the American competitive sports world, a steroid dealer. I don't know if you've heard of ZMA, a nutritional supplement drug launched by Balk Labs, but there was a sentence in his promotional materials that in the four Olympic Games in 1988, 1992, 1996 and 2000, many American athletes who won medals achieved good results by taking ZMA. ”

Randy Hunter pointed to the business card he had just shredded, and continued, "ZMA is ostensibly a legal stamina supplement, but secretly, they sell illegal drugs......

As Yechin listened to Randy Hunter's narration little by little, a dark side of competitive sports that he had never been exposed to or even thought about appeared in front of him.

The middle-aged white man that Yechin met on the track and field, Victor Conte, ran a vast empire of banned drugs almost in a tongue-smacking tactic.

In his early years, Victor Conte first opened a naturopathic clinic, selling supplements, vitamins and dama for a living

But one night, after two gun-wielding gangsters snatched almost $100,000 in dama from his clinic, he realized that the risk of doing this was too high, and it was easy for something life-threatening to happen.

Instead of focusing on natural remedies, he founded the Bay Area Joint Laboratory (Balk Labs), which was packaged to analyze human blood, urine samples and hair to detect the deficiency of trace elements in the human body, and then provide nutritional supplements with vitamins and minerals.

In the eyes of scholars and doctors with specialized knowledge, this set of Balk's lab is completely pseudoscience. However, the company's strategy for the name of the laboratory is that after high-intensity training, the trace elements in the athlete's body will be insufficient, which will affect their performance, and the laboratory uses cutting-edge instruments to detect that the athlete lacks that element, and then replenish it.

At first, this theory was confined to a relatively small non-mainstream sports circle, but Victor Conte, with his superb eloquence and incendiary ability, like many famous salesmen in the American dream, gradually broke into the professional sports circle with his tireless efforts.

Balk's lab routines provide illegal drugs that are mostly effective and undetectable, and most of them only work with high-profile top athletes.

The top athletes involved in this, Randy Hunter did not say explicitly, but the industry chain is constantly expanding, and Victor Conte has been specifically looking for well-known coach-athletes to work with, and it is almost a huge bottomless quagmire.

In recent years, the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency has repeatedly tested the Victor Conte and Balk labs, and since this year, the problem has reached the brink of an imminent outbreak. At this time, it was already on the crater.

"Ye Qin, don't get involved in the slightest relationship." Randy Hunter gave an overview of the situation, and then instructed again.

After hearing this, Ye Qin was a little stunned for a while, for a young athlete of seventeen or eighteen, it was almost unimaginable to hear such shocking news.

"Coach, I'm definitely not going to have anything to do with these things."

After a long time, Ye Qin nodded seriously, although he had occasionally heard about illegal drugs in the past, but it was the first time that he had really received such a detailed introduction.

But the more he did that, the more he felt the need to be vigilant.

This world cannot be completely pure, and in many unknown corners, there will be malice and dirt, and you need to be careful and cautious during walking.

He never wanted to improve his grades through illegal drugs, not in the past, not now, and not in the future.

Step on the runway and chase the accolades, but make sure you keep it clean.

"It's a professionalism and a moral quality of an athlete to get an honour in your own right, and that's good, and you have to do it too."

Randy Hunter was a little serious, paused and continued, "The reason why I say this so carefully is to tell you, Victor Conte, Balk Labs, you don't even want to get involved. It's a sensitive time, he's in a quagmire now, even if you're innocent, but as long as you're a little involved, who can guarantee that no one will throw dirty water on you. ”

Speaking of this, Randy Hunter couldn't help but sigh, he didn't expect to bump into the big event that was about to break out in American athletics when he returned to the United States this time, "Next, let's hurry up and finish the competition in the United States, although I am an American, I don't want to stay too long." This is the dark side of the world, and although you have grown up hard, you have never seen another world of deceit, where the playing field is even more cruel. ”
