It was 11 o'clock in the evening on August 6 when the chartered flight of the Chinese swimming corps arrived at the capital airport, and Du Ke stayed in the capital for one night, and the next morning, he took the plane back to Nangang.

After returning to Nangang, Du Ke refused all interviews, and he asked the Provincial Sports Bureau and the Provincial Swimming Team for leave, saying that he would rest for a few days, and then went straight to the First People's Hospital of Nangang City as soon as possible. His father is still in the hospital, and he has to visit him.

The father and son met in the hospital ward and chatted all afternoon, and then the nurse came in to persuade Duke to leave, because his father had just had heart surgery for less than a week and was still in the postoperative recovery stage and needed to rest.

After seeing his father, Du Ke was also relieved, the operation was successful, and it is expected that his father will be discharged from the hospital in another week.

Dad is hospitalized, always need family care, Du Ke's mother has official business, can not ask for leave every day, fortunately their family has many relatives, aunt, sister-in-law, cousin played an important role during this time, they take turns to the hospital to take care of the younger brother, brother, cousin.

Douce's mother came to the hospital at 7 p.m. after work, and the family of three had their first meeting in the hospital room after Duke returned home.

At 9 o'clock in the evening, the nurse entered the ward and said that the lights were going out, the patient was going to sleep, and the vigil was okay, but it was not too loud to affect the patient's rest.

Du Ke insisted on staying in the ward to keep vigil, but was forcibly driven back by his father, and his father even drove his wife Director Ke away, so that the mother and son could go home and have a good reunion.

Du Ke has just returned to China, and he must have a lot to say to his family, the joy of being a champion, the pride of being the number one in the world, and so on.

It is inconvenient to talk in a public place like a hospital, and Du Ke is now a sports star, not suitable for a long stay in the hospital, and some people have already recognized Du Ke. Dad said that you have already seen me today, you should rest assured, don't come to the hospital in the future, so as not to cause trouble, and I will be discharged from the hospital next week.

After a while, Du Ke's sister-in-law came, and it was absolutely reassuring that her sister-in-law was in charge of the vigil, so Du Ke and his mother went home first.

When they got home, the mother and son naturally had a warm exchange, and as they spoke, Du Ke suddenly chattered and said, "Mom, let me tell you something, please don't get excited after you hear it, can you do it?" ”

Mom smiled: "What? Got a girlfriend? Okay, I'll try not to get excited, you say, whose daughter? Do I know each other? ”

No matter what age a woman is, the heart of gossip will always burn with a raging flame. Du Ke shook his head: "It's not about the girl, Mom, what I want to talk to you about is business." ”

My mother was strange: "As soon as you return to China, you will talk to me about business as soon as you go home, you love your career so much, so let's hear it." ”

Doucle: "If, I mean if, I want to get out of swimming for a while and do something else, do you think it's possible, Mom?" ”

"What?" My mother was shocked, but after all, she was also a middle-level cadre in the provincial bureau, and her psychological quality was also good. ”

"Mom, aren't you excited? After listening to me, I'm not retiring, but swimming at the same time to work on other projects. As a sports worker, do you have any good advice for me to pursue other sports besides swimming? ”

"Can I not get excited? Duke, are you crazy? Or is there too much gold medal brush, and the brush is confused? What else can you do but swim? What other projects will you not achieve? ”

"Look at what you said, I can have a lot of projects, for example, I can use air pistols, dear mother, have you forgotten, you are my air pistol enlightenment instructor."

Mom was really speechless, she was speechless, yes, Duke's air pistol was taught by her.

"You haven't touched a gun in years, and you haven't been on the shooting range since your freshman year of high school, have you? According to what you say, then you will have a lot of sports, in addition to swimming, you can also air pistol, archery, tennis, by the way, you have also practiced track and field, 3000 meters and got a second-level athlete certificate. ”

"But what can you do at the level of a Level 2 athlete? Even the level of the provincial and municipal teams is not as good. Duke, don't make a fuss, I know, you've been the best in the world in swimming, and it's understandable to have a bit of post-competition syndrome. Listen to my mother, take a shower and go to bed early, rest at home for a few days, and then report back to the provincial swimming team. "My mother thought that Duke was sick and had post-game syndrome, which is a kind of sports psychological illness that requires timely psychological counseling to eliminate the symptoms. Therefore, the national teams of various projects, including some provincial teams, will be equipped with psychological counselors.

"Mom, I'm mentally fine, don't you even believe in your own son?" Du Ke also expected his mother's reaction, it was normal not to believe it, and he immediately believed that it was definitely not his own mother, "Yes, I also got a second-level athlete certificate for the 3000-meter run." It's strange to say, before I joined the provincial swimming team, I didn't have any certificates in the swimming event, of course, I was too lazy to take the test, otherwise I should be able to get the second-level swimming athlete certificate in the freestyle or backstroke test. I was also a second-level athlete, and after a few months of training, I was still in the national swimming team. ”

My mother was laughed at by Du Ke: "So, you are a well-rounded sports genius?" ”

Du Ke smiled: "Dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, I inherited the genius genes of a genius mother, everything is possible." ”

"Hey......" Mom suddenly sighed, "When you were a child, you did show amazing athletic talent, you can learn anything, no matter what the project, you can really practice a style after two weeks." However, this kind of training method is too much and not precise to almost make you useless. Your basic skills are solid and you have a foundation, but I still can't fully believe that you can achieve this kind of swimming in a short period of time if you go to a new project now. ”

Du Ke: "Try it, how do you know if you don't try?" If not, forget it, from then on I focused on swimming, and I never thought about it again. In April last year, I was sleeping at home, and I was forcibly arrested by Su Yun to participate in the test of the school swimming team, and then there was the aftermath, and then, I went home with 14 World Championship gold medals. The world is wonderful, Mom, don't you say? ”

The mother stared at Du Ke's eyes for a long time, and found that Du Ke was indeed serious, and said that the mother and son are connected, and the son is better than the mother, Director Ke Meihuake's attitude finally softened, and she asked Du Ke: "Then what new project do you want to work part-time?" ”

"The projects I did when I was a kid gave me some time to get back into training and get familiar with the equipment, and I was confident that I could pick it up again," says Duke. In terms of technology, I can choose from a lot of new projects, but in terms of system, I would like to listen to my mother's advice, after all, you are the leader of the Sports Bureau, and you must be more far-sighted than me. ”

My mother thought for a while and said: "First of all, you can't completely give up swimming, you can not participate in domestic swimming competitions, but you have to go to international swimming competitions, this is not a question of whether you are lonely or not, but a matter of national honor." ”

"Unless the Chinese men's swimming team finds a successor, you are no longer needed, but I think it will be very difficult in the short term, Ning Zetao and Xu Jiayu have potential, but they have not yet reached the stage where they can take the gold medal casually. In the short and middle distance events of the men's swimming style, the national swimming team is still inseparable from you in the short term. ”

"The swimming center, the provincial bureau, and the provincial swimming team have given you so much care, you have to pick a child and leave, do you think they will go crazy? The head hair on it is crazy, and I can only kill my relatives in righteousness. After saying that, my mother laughed herself.

Du Ke nodded: "Mom, that's right, we agreed on the strategic direction. At next year's Asian Games, I will definitely sign up for swimming. ”

My mother said: "On the premise of not giving up swimming, the sports you have practiced are shooting, archery, tennis, and track and field." I'm a professional shooter, and personally, I certainly want you to be as good at shooting as you are at swimming. However, as a sports system worker, I don't recommend that you work part-time in shooting. ”

Doucle: "Oh? ”

Mom: "My country's shooting events are not weak, in fact, in men's air pistols, men's and women's ****** and other small events, our Chinese team is quite strong." Who was the first Chinese to win an Olympic gold medal? It's your Patriarch Xu, what kind of project is he practicing? It's an air pistol. The manly pistol is my country's dominant sport, so you don't want to join in the fun for the time being, you know? Unless you go to skeet, skeet is the weakest event in my country's shooting. ”

Du Ke nodded: "I understand, I am a part-time worker, in case it is more fashionable than other people's full-time ones, it is too easy to pull hatred." So, if you want to play, play the weaknesses of the Chinese team? ”

"Yes, if you want to play, we can play our weaknesses, as long as you can make a breakthrough, there may be less resistance in all aspects." My mother said, "So don't play archery for the time being, my country's men's archery team is on the rise, and the harvest season will soon be ushered in, so don't go to harm them." ”

"Two are excluded, and there are two left. Compared with women's tennis, men's tennis in my country is indeed much weaker, you can consider tennis, you used to play tennis and played well. ”

"Athletics, the mother of sports and a sport with high international influence, has been the biggest and most painful heart disease in China's sports world for a long time. Liu Xiang retired again injured at the London Olympics, if it weren't for Chen Dian winning a gold medal in the 20km race walk at the London Olympics, China's track and field would have fallen into an extremely passive trough period. ”

Chen Dian's 20km race walking Olympic gold medal can be regarded as a lifesaver for China's track and field, but this race walking gold medal cannot cover up the overall weakness of China's track and field. On the men's side, running below 10,000 meters, including jumping and throwing, are the weaknesses of the Chinese track and field team. ”

Therefore, in addition to race walking, you can also consider other track and field events, and if you subdivide it, you should choose the 800-10,000-meter middle-distance run. Sprinting and jumping below 400 meters are secondary, about the shot put, discus or something, I don't want our heartthrob male god Duke to practice shot put and become a big fat man, just forget about the throwing class. My dear son of a Level 2 athlete in the 3000 meters, this is my personal advice. ”

Du Ke very much agreed with his mother's suggestion: "Tennis is not considered for the time being, and as for track and field, the mother of sports, as a certified track and field athlete, I feel that I should make a contribution to this project." ”

……

At half past five in the morning of the next day, Ke Meihua and Du Ke, mother and son, changed into sportswear and sneakers and went out.

Why do you get up so early and go out?

In Ke Meihua's words: it's a mule or a horse, pull it out and slip away.

Regarding the new event, Duke's decision was: athletics.

Why not tennis?

Because tennis players require comprehensive quality, that is, explosiveness, speed, endurance, physique, skill, strength, agility, and precision, the eight attributes of a bull fork can become a bull fork tennis player.

Ball games are basically the same, football, basketball, volleyball and other three balls, including badminton, table tennis and other small balls, also need comprehensive quality.

Running and jumping require speed and explosiveness; Powerful volleys, tomahawk slams, and strong forehand and backhand hits require power. Football, basketball and other physical confrontation sports also need strong strength and physical attributes as support, otherwise it is not uncommon to be broken by someone to break a calf, an elbow to break a rib, and a foot to crack the skull.

Football, basketball, and volleyball require skills, and small ball sports such as badminton, table tennis, and tennis require even more skills.

Endurance aside, what kind of exercise doesn't require good endurance?

Three balls, three balls, you can't stand all over the field, you have to move around, and that requires agility.

The soccer ball has to be accurate, and it can't fly for a long time. Machine; Basketball shooting requires higher accuracy, and you're embarrassed to go out and meet people with a shooting rate of less than 40%; Tennis, badminton, table tennis, you have to point where to play, you have to hit the ball over the net and not out of bounds; These ball games require a high degree of precision.

It can be said that in ball games, precision is an important attribute, running fast, jumping high, endurance is long-lasting, everything is to score goals, score points and beat opponents.

Duke's strength, agility, and precision are 23, 11, and 11, and he still has 156 bonus points left, so he can't stack these three attributes at the same time in a short period of time, so he doesn't consider ball games for the time being.

The five attributes of Duke's explosiveness, speed, physique, endurance, and skill correspond to most of the small items in the track and field events, and the throwing items such as shot put, discus, hammer throw, and javelin require high force attributes and cannot be played for the time being. Running and jumping are all right.

So early this morning, Duke's mother and son went out for an internal track and field test match in the family...... (To be continued.) )
