Chapter Twenty-Nine: Forty Years of Dreams
It's late at night.
Yu Gui lay on the bed, smirking from time to time.
An old man in the same room couldn't stand it anymore, and said: "Less, okay, don't get excited, it's time to sleep, there will be a game tomorrow!" ”
This old man is Coach He, who is ten years older than Coach Yu, and is also a senior coach of the national team track and field team, mainly responsible for shot put, discus, javelin, hammer throw and other throwing events.
"He Lao, you don't understand, at this moment today, I have been waiting for forty years!" Director Yu continued with emotion: "In 64, when I first entered the provincial team, my dream at that time was to become the first flyer in Asia! When I retired as a coach in '77, I fantasized that one of my disciples could become the No. 1 flyer in Asia and fulfill my dream of being younger. It's been forty years, and I've been waiting for forty years! And now it's finally done! ”
The national team is very strong in the throwing category, and some of the women's athletes even have the strength to challenge for Olympic gold medals, while the performance of the male athletes is not as good as that of the women, but it is definitely the best in Asia. Therefore, He Lao, who is in charge of the throwing project, really can't understand what it's like to wait for 40 years.
After another moment, Director He said: "Rest early, we still have a competition tomorrow, I remember that tomorrow you will have a 4x100m final and a 200m final." ”
"Don't worry, in the 200-meter event, our Yang Yao is a very powerful player, and now that Shingo is injured, the Japanese team only has Tsuchie Kanhiro and Takahira Shinshi, Yang Yao should be able to win a medal; As for the 4x100m event, without a Shingo Sue, it is not certain that the Japanese team will be able to play tomorrow. We have Zhang Guan, a wonder soldier, maybe we can fight for the gold medal in the 4 x 100 meters. Director Yu said confidently.
Director He frowned and asked, "During the daytime game, I have been watching Zhang Guan, and I haven't noticed Shingo Sue, what do you think he is hurt?" ”
Director Yu sat up and gestured with his hands as he said, "When Shingo Sue was just injured, I thought he had injured his ankle, but judging from the way he went on the court, it is more likely that he will have an Achilles tendon injury. ”
Director He nodded: "After all, the main event of the last Shingo is the 200-meter sprint, and it is normal to have an ankle injury on the left foot, but if it hurts the Achilles tendon, it will be a big trouble." ”
The 200-meter sprinter needs to go through a left-turn curve after the start, and in the case of a high-explosive high-speed left-turn run, the athlete's left ankle is subjected to the most force, so the left ankle of the 200-meter athlete is susceptible to stress injuries.
As for the Achilles tendon, it can be said to be the life of a sprinter, the Achilles tendon is a large tendon located behind the ankle joint, which is an indispensable tissue for human walking, running, climbing and other sports. Whether the sprinter's explosive power is strong or not is also related to the strength of the Achilles tendon, and some people later analyzed that the reason why Bolt ran fast was because his Achilles tendon was abnormally thick and developed.
Once a sprinter's Achilles tendon has a major injury, even if the injury is healed, it will lose part of its explosiveness and speed, and it is difficult to recover to its peak state.
Sprinters will suffer some damage to their Achilles tendons in order to maintain high explosiveness during exercise, so Achilles tendon injuries are a problem that every sprinter will face. Many of the sprint champions of later generations would spend a lot of money on world-class physiotherapists to relax their Achilles tendons after the race. Just like Usain Bolt, he always goes to Germany on vacation, because there are first-class physiotherapists and advanced equipment in Germany that can relax his Achilles tendon.
……
Yu Gui's guess was correct, and the location of Shingo Sue's injury was indeed in the Achilles tendon of his left leg.
At the Japanese team's residence, Takano came in to Keikazu Kobayashi and said, "Coach, this is the team doctor who gave the report and the results of the examination. ”
Kobayashi Keiwa waved his hand: "I won't read the report, just say the results." ”
The team doctor said that it was an Achilles tendon strain, mainly caused by the fatigue of the Achilles tendon for a long time, and excessive force was the cause of the strain. The doctor advised Shingo to stop doing strenuous exercise and to recover his Achilles tendon through rest and physical therapy. However, the medical conditions in the Philippines are too poor, so I need to go back to Japan for physical treatment. Takano said.
"How long do you want to rest? Can the following matches still be played? Kobayashi asked.
"The doctor recommended a two-week rest before making a decision based on recovery. I've already put on special shoes for Shingo Suesu, which won't affect his movements, but the doctor doesn't recommend Shingo Sueji to continue to participate in the next races. Takano stopped talking, but his face looked like he wanted to say something.
Kobayashi Keiwa noticed that Takano Jin still had something to say, so he asked, "Is there anything else?" “
"That's right, Shingo Sueji himself strongly asked to participate in the next competition." Takano Shin spoke.
Kobayashi Keiwa frowned and thought for a while, and said, "Next, Shingo Suesu has two races left, the 4x100m final tomorrow morning, and the men's 200m dash final. If Shingo Sueji can still play, let him go to the final of the 4x100m, and don't let him participate in the 200m sprint. ”
"Yes! I'll go tell him right away. Takano nodded and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute." Kobayashi Keiwa stopped Takano Shin again, and then said: "Shingo Sue's leg injury is no longer suitable for running the fourth stick, let him switch with Senji Asahara, go to run the fourth stick with Shinji Asahara, and Shingo Suesu run the second stick." ”
……
In China, although it has passed nine o'clock in the evening, the editor-in-chief Zheng of a well-known online media education page is still sitting in the office, typing on the keyboard and writing the manuscript.
"Manila won the championship and broke the Asian record, and Zhang Guan beat the Japanese player."
China's Zhang Guan, who has said that he will break the Asian record in the 100-meter dash held by Japan's Koji Ito for five years this year, finally fulfilled his vow today at the Asian Athletics Championships in Manila, Philippines. In 9.99 seconds, Zhang Guan not only improved the original Asian record by 0.01 seconds, but also won his first international championship. ”
It is not too much to use "explosive" to describe Zhang Guan's growth this year. In the international athlete test in May, Zhang Guan just obtained the national second-level athlete qualification, and then in the Asian Athletics Championships qualifiers, Zhang Guan won the championship of the 100-meter sprint with a time of 10.16 seconds, and broke the national record of the men's 100-meter sprint, and was crowned the first person in China......"
A press release was written, and Editor-in-Chief Zheng read it several times and felt very satisfied.
Just yesterday, a certain editor under the editor-in-chief Zheng copied and pasted an article, just finished hacking Zhang Guan, and this afternoon broke the news that Zhang Guan broke the Asian record, and the editor-in-chief Zheng had to stand up and wipe his ass in person. This time, Editor-in-Chief Zheng wrote all about Zhang Guan's growth process, firstly, to show that the actual situation is the same as previously reported, Zhang Guan has indeed changed from an unknown high school student to the first person in Asia in just four months, and they did not talk nonsense as a media; The second subtext is that the previous suspicion is based on reasonable suspicion.
But at the end of the article, Editor-in-Chief Zheng still tried his best to praise Zhang Guan's record-breaking, which can be regarded as a remedy.
Compared with online media, newspapers are not so immediate and fast, today's newspapers are often reporting what happened during the day yesterday, and it is precisely because the news of the newspaper will be half a beat slower, so the negative news about Zhang Guan has not had time to report the newspaper, and it has received the news that Zhang Guan broke the Asian record.
The newspaper did not go to black Zhang Guan, so there was no concern about the report, and he was too lazy to play word games, and directly accompanied a photo to hang the headline, so early the next morning, the headlines of the mainstream domestic newspapers were all reporting the news that Zhang Guan broke the Asian record.
Who is Zhang Guan? Ordinary people don't know.
What is the Asian record for the 100m sprint? 9.99 seconds? Ordinary people don't have any idea.
But Zhang Guan broke the record held by the Japanese, and it was very different. The thinking of ordinary people is very simple, no matter what kind of sport, the one who can kill the Japanese is definitely not a bad breed.
So on this day, Zhang Guan officially entered the field of vision of ordinary people, and many people remembered this name.
In the circle of track and field, the news of Zhang Guan's breaking the Asian record was like a typhoon passing through, setting off a monstrous wave.
Originally, Zhang Guan's ability to break the national record has surprised many people, but today's breaking of the Asian record is simply beyond normal cognition.
"Two months of training to break the national record, another two months of training to break the Asian record, fortunately there are no international competitions after two months, otherwise this kid would have broken the world record!"
"Zhang Guan, that kid is a monster, isn't it? It's so hard for us to improve our score by 0.01 seconds, but he's good, and the speed of his improvement is like riding a rocket. ”
"It's still Chen Laohui's vision of heroes! Who would have thought of picking someone in the examination room of national second-level athletes! ”
"This crown, maybe it's another Liu Feiren!"
"I don't think Liu Feiren can compare to Zhang Guan, and the 100-meter dash is much more influential than the 110-meter hurdles."
"The 100-meter dash has a lot of influence, but the competition is also more fierce, isn't it?"
……
Just when Zhang Guan dominated the headlines of domestic newspapers, as far away as Manila, Philippines, the game was still going on.
Today is the last day of competition, and the 4x100m race starts early in the morning, starting with the women's race and then the men's race.
Shingo Sueji still appeared in the preparation area of the Japanese team, but with a thick bandage on his left leg, it seems that yesterday's injury still had a big impact.
Originally, the strength of the Japanese team was the strongest, and the advantage of the Japanese team in this event was also obvious, but now Shingo Sueji is injured, and the Japanese team has lost one of their strongest points, which makes several countries such as Saudi Arabia and Kazakhstan eager to win the championship, which naturally includes the Chinese team.
"Come on, champion!" I saw the four players of the national team fold their hands together, cheer each other on, and began to walk to their respective positions.
At the same time, Zhang Guan silently entered the system.
"There is also a skill point, learn to sprint in corners!"
