Chapter 505: Izu Track

It's mid-to-late December, and in a few days Duke should go to Japan... Ben is it. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Duke found that he had spent more time in the capital this year than at home.

It is inevitable that swimming, athletics, shooting, cycling or any other major sport, the main training place of the national team is in the capital. Under the national system, when the Olympic Games are approaching, the national teams in each event will gather outstanding athletes to join the team for intensive training to prepare for the Olympic Games.

Outside the capital, there are also some well-known training bases, football teams, long-distance running teams sometimes go to Haigeng to practice, race walking teams, mountain bike teams are more fond of paying tribute. The volleyball team has a rudder in Zhangzhou, and the women's and men's national volleyball teams will always go to Zhangzhou for special training for a few months of the year. If the national canoe and rowing teams go to the Qiandao Lake training base, it means that the big war is coming. The hopeful stars that the national team focuses on cultivating will also have the opportunity to be sent to the country with the highest level of the project for a period of foreign special training.

But most of the time, the main training place for the members of the national team is in the capital. So Duke stayed in the capital for a longer time this year, and maybe even longer next year.

During his stay in the capital, Duke lived in the General Sports Retreat Center, and after a few months, he couldn't live anymore.

The dry rest house is quiet, but after all, it is a place for old cadres to recuperate, and the neighbors are all elderly friends, and Du Ke feels depressed after living for a long time. And after all, this is a public house, not your own home, no matter how comfortable you live, there is no sense of home.

It was also inconvenient for Du Ke's friends to enter and leave the dry rest house, no matter who came to visit Du Ke, the armed police at the door would be expressionless and stiff in tone, and the armed policemen carried guns on their backs, making Du Ke feel like he was confined within the high walls and being visited.

So Duke decided to do something personal outside of training --- buy a house.

Duke has a house in Nangang, which was sent by the province. Now that he has been running to the capital for a long time, he thinks that he should simply buy a house in the capital, it will be much more convenient to have a private house.

Then Duke spent 70 million to buy a single-family house in the suburbs of the capital. He now has a net worth of nearly 1 billion, and tens of millions can be taken out casually.

Du Ke called Su Yun at home: "Leader, I want to report something to you, I have a fancy for a house in the capital, and I have already paid the deposit this morning." ”

Su Yun: "If you like it, you can buy it, the lighting must be sufficient, the small building in the dry rest house is gloomy, I am afraid." Where is the house you are looking at? How many floors, how much area, how much is a flat? ”

Du Ke reported truthfully: "In the suburbs of the capital, the Jinfeng Famous Residence has a total of three floors, with a basement, a construction area of 600 square meters, 7 bedrooms, 4 living rooms, 2 kitchens and 5 bathrooms. The interior is equipped with central air conditioning and central vacuuming, and there is a patio with garage outside. Their house is sold by set, and the total price of this set I see is 70 million, which is 100,000 yuan per square meter. ”

Su Yun exclaimed: "What are you going to buy a villa?!" 70 million, this is a mansion, right? 70 million to buy a single-family house, decoration, furniture and appliances can not be too shabby, inside and outside I can see more than 100 million, can be characterized as a luxury house. ”

Duke: "I often run to the capital, and it's a little more convenient to have a nest here." We are not very short of money now, we can consider buying a second house, after all, it is also real estate, which is considered a family property. I have seen the existing building, the north and south orientation, good ventilation and lighting, the property and security of this villa area are good, all in all, you can start. You came to the capital recently to confirm, by the way, buy all the furniture and appliances, I will go to Japan soon.. Ben participates in bicycle races, and usually doesn't have much time. Oh yes, I wrote your name and ID number when I paid the deposit, Happy Christmas Eve. "Today is December 24th.

Su Yun was about to faint happily: "The Christmas gift you gave is too bad, I'll come to the capital tomorrow!" ”

……

After purchasing the property, Duke left the capital on New Year's Day 2016 and flew to Tokyo. Su Yun stayed in the capital to take care of her and Duke's mansion.

Du Ke and his teammate Pu Zexian did not stop in Tokyo, and traveled non-stop to the Izu Peninsula, not far south of Tokyo, to meet up with the Chinese cycling team's Asian Championship working group in Izu.

January 1st~3rd every year. Ben's New Year is the most important holiday in the country.

Day.. This New Year's custom is similar to the Chinese New Year, when families gather for a reunion dinner, children receive New Year's money from their elders, and people wear kimonos to worship at temples and ring bells to pray for good weather and peace and happiness in the coming year.

Day.. I was all celebrating the New Year, and the dozen or so Chinese in Izu were so different.

These dozen Chinese are Du Ke, Pu Zexian, coaches, translators, team doctors, technicians, and support team staff, and there are actually only two team members, and a total of 11 coaches and logistics support personnel.

Izu is a tourist destination, and it was here that Yasunari Kawabata was inspired to write a novel, The Dancing Girl of Izu.

The beginning of January is the day. It was the coldest time, but Izu, which is located on the Izu Peninsula, is not very cold due to the Pacific Ocean Current, so it was chosen as the venue for the Asian Road Cycling Championships. At this time of year, no one goes cycling in snowy Hokkaido.

However, it has been very windy in Izu these days, and professional cyclists have been fighting against it all their lives. Wind is a presence that riders love and hate.

Whirring and windy, the downwind is fine, while the upwind or crosswind can be a headache for the riders. Du Ke and Pu Zexian each took a road bike and rode in the wind on the Izu road course, familiarizing themselves with the 11.9-kilometer track with a single lap.

Duke and Pu Zexian will participate in the men's and women's road races respectively, and the big group race of the Izu Asian Championships will be a circle race.

The 11.9-kilometre course is mostly flat, with only one climb section with a 4.9% climb and a 4.1% downhill gradient, with 191 metres per lap.

The men's race totaled 166.6 km over 14 laps and the women's bike lasted 12 laps for 142.8 km.

The UCI has added two additional Olympic quota places to Asia, with the winners and runners-up of the men's and women's Asian Championships automatically qualifying for the road cycling event in Rio, where only the champion could go to Rio.

All in all, it was not easy for Du Ke and Pu Zexian to get the top two places respectively, because they had no teammates after the group, none of them. The road race is one of the categories of cycling that focuses on teamwork, and if a lone wolf wants to win, he can only attack more frantically. (To be continued.) )
