Chapter 495 Participation
Until the end of the National Day holiday, Du Ke did not receive any contact from any center for swimming, field management, self-sword, shooting and archery, and since returning home for a month, only Director Chen of the General Office of the Sports Federation has contacted him last week. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"It's good that no one cares about me anymore." Du Ke felt that it was easy for no one to care, but he also knew that several centers did not really care, and they must be secretly watching their every move.
Regardless of whether there is a person to care about it, Du Ke implements it according to his own plan, in addition to practicing guns, he has been busy doing some personal things recently.
Yan Ziyang helped Du Ke take over a watch endorsement and earned tens of millions.
After filming the watch commercial, Duke was invited by his old sponsor, Nick, to participate in an NRC running club at Nangang No. 2 Middle School.
This activity is to teach middle school students to run, which has the nature of commercial activities, but Du Ke himself is a coach to teach children to run, which has a positive impact on the promotion of track and field to a certain extent, and is a semi-commercial and semi-public welfare social activity.
Gun training, money is earned, and social welfare activities are also time-bound to participate, Du Ke has lived a calm and busy time during this time.
Some reporters have captured photos of Du Ke entering and leaving the shooting team of Nanyue Province every day, and rumors are spreading on the Internet: Du Ke wants to play with guns?
Du Ke did not make any response, the sports federation official was all official, the swimming center said that it did not know about this, the field management center said that Du Ke was on vacation, and the sword center revealed that Du Ke had obtained the Olympic qualification for mountain biking (he got it a few months ago), and the main responsible unit Shooting and Archery Center claimed that everything was done according to the system.
There are different opinions from the outside world, and the four centers related to Du Ke actually did not reveal any valuable dry goods, and tai chi is their strength.
However, Du Ke understood that the Federation should do a good job of coordination within the Federation, and no one informed Du Ke that he must go to the National Shooting Trials, and no one clearly told Du Ke that he was not allowed to participate in the Shooting Trials.
No news is good news, and the Shooting and Archery Center has actually implicitly expressed its attitude: everything is done according to the system.
So the Nanyue Provincial Shooting Team acted in accordance with the system explicitly issued by the Shooting and Archery Management Center, and reported Du Ke's name: to participate in the men's 50-meter rifle prone trial on October 27.
Duke's entry form was not rejected and appears to have been approved by the Shooting and Archery Center. It has been more than a month since Du Ke returned to Nangang, and during this time, except for a phone call with Director Chen of the General Office of the Sports Federation, he has not contacted any center, and the four centers have not taken the initiative to contact him.
But there are all kinds of signs that everything is being done according to some tacit system, and everyone knows it, so let's keep a low profile.
On October 24th, Du Ke arrived in the capital with the shooting team of Nanyue Province, and the national shooting trials will be held on October 26~31 at the shooting training base of the Shooting and Archery Management Center.
A total of 302 shooting athletes from 26 teams from all provinces, municipalities, autonomous regions, construction corps, and military systems have arrived in the capital one after another, and the most skilled professional shooters in China have gathered here, and through the six-day selection competition, 20% of them will stay, and 80% will return to the provincial teams to prepare for the next Olympic cycle--- Tokyo Olympics.
There are 15 gold medals (small events) in the shooting events of the Rio Olympics, with 9 gold medals for men and 6 gold medals for women, and each country can register a maximum of 2 athletes in each event.
The number of Chinese shooting team members who have signed up for the shooting events of the Rio Olympics is 30, and if there are people who do both sports, or if there are no two qualified athletes in some small events, less than 30 athletes can go to Rio.
Of the 302 shooting athletes who participated in the trials, 20% of them were left behind through this preliminary selection, that is, about 60 people, and these 60 athletes formed the preliminary squad of the Rio Olympic shooting national team.
The selection of the initial squad means they are one step closer to Rio, but in the end, only half of them will make it to the Olympics.
Of the 302 athletes who participated in the trials, only 10% made it to Rio, making it highly competitive.
Before 12 o'clock on October 25, the contestants of the provincial teams can go to the competition venue for test firing and familiarize themselves with objective factors such as adapting to the venue, scoring system, target, and lighting.
Early in the morning of October 25, Du Ke and his teammates Li Debao, Zhang Wenjun, Jiang Lei, and Mei Yue came to the shooting hall of the Shooting and Archery Center for a test launch of the venue adaptability.
This selection competition is not open to the outside world, and reporters are not allowed to enter the museum. After Duke entered the shooting gallery, he attracted some attention, and someone recognized Duke and said hello to him, and there was no phenomenon of chasing and intercepting.
After entering the shooting range, there were fewer people to talk to Doke, and the other competitors found their own shooting positions and practiced their own skills.
Most of the shooting athletes are rational and calm, and now everyone is facing great pressure of 80%~90% brutal elimination rate, no one will run after Duke's ass like a little fan, asking for an autograph or something.
There are 50 shooting positions in the 50-meter shooting range of the shooting hall of the Shooting and Archery Management Center, where athletes in the 50-meter event are test-shot, and official trials are also held here.
As far as the Olympic events are concerned, there are three events in the men's 50m, with rifle three positions, rifle prone and pistol slow fire. There is only one Olympic event in the women's 50m, the women's 50m rifle three positions.
The 50 shooting positions in the 50-meter shooting range seem a bit crowded, and this shooting hall is usually used for the training of the national shooting team, and 50 shooting positions are more than enough, but now there are more than 50 players from the provincial teams gathered to test the shooting, and the shooting positions are not enough.
The athletes of the above-mentioned 50-meter events of the provincial teams are tested here, and if there is a vacant shooting position, they will go up, and if they don't, they will wait.
It doesn't matter if you're a sports superstar or an Olympic champion on the shooting range, everyone is a shooter, an equal, and you're here to get into the national team squad and fight for the final Olympic quota, not to chase stars.
So Duke also had to wait for the position, and after waiting for a while, the No. 41 shooting position was finally vacant, he cut the track and field page in seconds, carried the gun, held the horizontal shooting mat, and turned on the [Fast Frequency Assault] and quickly rushed to the No. 41 shooting position, occupying the first position.
After occupying the 41st firing position, Duke switched back to the shooting archery page, laid out the mat and began the test firing. After firing for more than an hour and sixty or seventy rounds of ammunition, he gave way to his teammates and called it a day.
In the blink of an eye, on October 27, at 10 a.m., the men's 50m rifle prone qualifying round is about to begin.
In the indoor 50-meter shooting range of the shooting hall of the training base, there is a row of gunmen lying on the 50 shooting positions, and the 50 gunners aim according to the guns, or empty the guns, waiting for the referee to send a "load" signal.
Duke was in the No. 2 shooting position, and his teammate Li Debao was in the No. 38 shooting position, the two were quite far apart, and the qualifying shooting position was randomly assigned by the computer.
A total of 50 athletes from 26 teams participated in the selection of the men's 50m rifle prone shooting, which is a large number of participants for this weak individual event of the Chinese shooting team.
It's not that we have a lot of talents in this single event, but the provincial teams are based on the principle of being a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and all the players in the team who have the strength of more than 60 rounds and 600 rings will report to him regardless of whether it is a special project or a concurrent project.
In the Nanyue Provincial Shooting Team, Du Ke's 60-round training score can reach around 630 rings, and the coach will definitely report him to participate in the trials. Li Debao is the main three-position sub-horizontal shooting, and his training results of 60 shots can occasionally hit 600 rings, so he also came to participate in the prone shooting trial to try his luck.
On the wall of the 50-meter shooting range hung an electronic clock display, which, in addition to the date and time, also had the words: xxx days until the opening of the Rio Olympics.
Time is running out, less than 1 year. Looking at the electronic clock of the countdown to the Olympics, it inexplicably creates a sense of urgency.
The shooting and archery center deliberately did this, which is also a psychological test for the contestants, and this little external pressure can not withstand the abnormal performance, so there is really no need to go to Rio.
The time of the electronic clock was displayed at 10:15, and at this time, Wang Yifu, the head coach of the shooting national team who personally served as the referee, sent a signal: "All players began to reload, and after 5 minutes of test firing, they entered the 60-round scoring stage."
