After the men's 400m freestyle final, the referee signaled the competitors to come ashore.

Du Ke was in lane 5, Hao Yun was in lane 4, and Zhang Lin was in lane 3, and the champions, runners-up and runners-up were close together.

After Zhang Lin came ashore, he naturally patted Hao Yun's back to say hello, and then he walked up to Du Ke and took the initiative to stretch out his hand and said, "Du Ke, congratulations, well done." ”

Du Ke and Zhang Lin shook hands and said modestly: "Brother Lin, I have conceded." ”

After shaking hands, Du Ke quietly glanced at Hao Yun in place.

In the regular etiquette of sports competitions, the defeated side will generally take the initiative to express polite congratulations to the champion and the winner, and a handshake and congratulatory words are all routines. If the winner takes the initiative to shake hands, it will be a bit of a show-off.

Du Ke was waiting for Hao Yun to come over and shake hands, but Hao Yun turned around and was about to leave.

At this time, Zhang Lin grabbed Hao Yun's arm and pulled him back.

Zhang Lin put his left hand around Hao Yun, bent Du Ke with his right arm, and said in the tone of a big brother: "Two brothers, how old are I older than you, I have to admit now, I am indeed an old man, and the time that belongs to you is coming." I am very relieved that there is a successor to the Chinese men's players, hey, how do you feel that this word is old and awkward, the kind of old man who has won the Lifetime Achievement Award only said this word. ”

Du Ke interjected: "Hehe, how can Brother Lin be considered old? All of us under the age of 28 are young people, and we all have to pay the group fee, and we are all members of the Communist Youth League, and we are the same age. ”

"That's right." Zhang Lin smiled, then looked at Hao Yun and then at Du Ke, and said, "This is the first time you two have met in an official competition, right?" You can't take care of each other in the future. ”

Under Zhang Lin's euphemistic prompting, Hao Yun finally took the initiative to stretch out his right hand and said to Du Ke: "Congratulations." ”

Duke shook his hand: "Thank you, conceit." ”

At this point, the 400-meter race is over, and journalists can leave the media area and approach the starting area.

The perimeter of the starting area was surrounded by a separation line, and some reporters and videographers flocked behind the separation line to pick up their cameras and cameras to take pictures of the three gold, silver and bronze medalists.

Zhang Lin and Du Ke switched positions at this time, letting Du Ke stand in the middle, and he and Hao Yun sandwiched Du Ke on the left and right, which was exactly the position when the award was presented. Zhang Lin, the eldest brother, has been participating in domestic and international competitions since he was 17 years old, and he is very good at being a person.

The three of them smiled with different meanings, and posed for more than ten seconds to get material for the reporters.

Then the organizing committee staff reminded Du Ke that they were almost ready, it was time to go for a urine test, and the champions, runners-up and reporters called it a day, and after a short rest, there will be a medal ceremony, followed by the final of the 200m event.

The National Swimming Championships, the highest level swimming competition in China, naturally requires a urine test.

Du Ke followed the staff to the physical examination room, took a small plastic cup with his name and player number written on it, took a cup of urine and handed it to the staff, today's task is basically completed, and it can be withdrawn when he will go to receive a prize.

After showering, changing into sportswear, and getting ready to claim the prize, Duke used the reward points that were still hot in his hands to buy his long-coveted stunt [Big Water Wheel] in the system store, spending 25 bonus points. There are 5 prize points left, and all of them have added explosive power, piling up their explosive power attributes to 52.

Du Ke dragged the [Big Water Wheel] to the skill bar and admired the stunt description: "Quickly paddling with both arms to hit the water, just like a waterwheel running at high speed, the propulsion speed is increased by 40%, lasting 8 seconds, and it can be stacked with the acceleration effect of [8 Kicks], and the cooldown time is 1 hour." ”

"It's cool, it's cool, the 100-meter freestyle is just right." Duke was quite satisfied with the new stunt and was confident about the 100m race.

The ensuing award ceremony went according to the process, and Duke won a gold medal at the National Championships, which was more golden, not only symbolic, but also golden.

Back in the standby area of the Nanyue team, the coaching staff was satisfied with Du Ke's performance, Du Ke did not sign up for the 200m race, so he could withdraw first, go back to the hotel to rest and rest, and recuperate to prepare for the 100m race starting tomorrow.

As soon as he walked to the door of the swimming pool, Su Yun caught up: "Du Ke, wait!" ”

Du Ke stopped, and when Su Yun got closer, he smiled and said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time, why did you come to interview me now?" ”

Su Yun waved his hand: "I won't interview you today." ”

Du Ke had a puzzled expression: "Huh, what?" I'm not qualified to be interviewed even if I won a championship? ”

"Cut, come on." Su Yun replied disdainfully, "There are more champions, if you want to post it on the Internet in the form of an interview, you have to work hard." ”

Du Ke shrugged his shoulders and expressed helplessness: "I also want to brush 8 gold medals, but I signed up for two individual events, and I won two gold medals at most." I will also participate in the 4*100m relay, but this is a collective event, and it is a comparison of the overall strength, and it would be good if our team could win medals and even reach the finals. ”

Su Yun: "So tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, in the 100-meter race, you have to be a little more high-profile." You're acting pretty well today. ”

Duke asked rhetorically, "How do you want me to be high-profile?" Floating on the water? Lao Tzu also wants to practice this stunt! ”

"You're poor." Su Yun was also amused by Du Ke, "Didn't I tell you before, you have to show off when it's time to show, show off your muscles and the beauty of male strength, show your warm smile, now the warm man is very popular, or like Sun Yang moved China with tears in his eyes, in fact, many people prefer to see the side of athletes who show their personality after victory." You finally won a championship, you have to let us reporters capture your selling point, you are stupid to take a few flowers, like a door, and like that extra, there is no focus. ”

"Damn, can I salute like Lin Dan? The point is, I'm not a military athlete. ”

"You're so smart, think for yourself, design design. Okay, I have to go back, it's a rare time, I have to learn from my seniors. Oh, I forgot to say, congratulations to you Duke, congratulations on becoming a national champion. On behalf of all the residents of Fenghua West Street Sports Community and the neighborhood committee of Nangang City, I would like to express my most sincere respect to you. ”

"Get out!"

……

The next day, the 100m and 50m heats will be held today.

There are many athletes who have signed up for the men's 100m freestyle, and they have to go through the first round of preliminaries, quarterfinals, and semifinals before they can enter the finals.

In the first round of preliminaries, Duke jumped with [One Leap Thousands of Miles], and immediately used a new stunt [Big Water Wheel] after entering the water, while driving the [Big Water Wheel], he double-opened [8 legs], because his advantage in the first 50 meters was too obvious, he did not open the stunt [Dolphin Turn] when he turned around, and also won the first place in the group and entered the quarterfinals.

In the first round of preliminaries, Duke mainly did experiments to test the acceleration superposition effect of the double open [Big Water Wheel] and [8 Kicks].

The double opening effect was too strong, and he swam a demonic time of 49.01 seconds in the first round of preliminaries, narrowly breaking the national record of 48.97 seconds!

After Duke went ashore, he whispered to himself: "I'll go, it seems that I have to save my strength before entering the finals......"
