The rest room of the national team was full of jubilation at this time, Zhang Guan broke the world record in the 200 meters, so the coaches and athletes were celebrating him.

When everyone was almost celebrating, Director Ma shouted Zhang Guan to his side.

I saw Director Ma say to Zhang Guan: "There is one thing, in fact, I have known it for a long time, but I am afraid that it will affect your competition status, so I have not told you, and now that the Athletics World Cup is over, I will simply tell you!" In the Asian Games, the center has already answered about your participation in the two middle-distance running events of 800m and 1500m. ”

"The center agreed?" Zhang Guan asked eagerly.

"A promise is a promise." Director Ma nodded, and then said, "But there is a prerequisite. ”

"I knew there was going to be this." Zhang Guan smiled helplessly, and then asked, "No problem, I just promised to come down." ”

"You didn't ask what the conditions were, and you just agreed? What if it pits you? Director Ma said with a smile.

Zhang Guan shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said, "Anyway, if I don't agree, I will definitely not be allowed to compete." Sooner or later, you have to get on this thief ship, so let's just have a good time! ”

"You can think about it." Director Ma stretched out his hand as he spoke, and continued: "I'll count for you, you have to participate in seven events: 100 meters, 200 meters, 400 meters, 4 by 100 meters, long jump, 800 meters and 1500 meters, right?" ”

"That's right." Zhang Guan nodded and said.

"If we don't count the 4 x 100 meters, then you have six events left to compete. You have to make sure that you win all six events before you can compete. Director Ma spoke.

Zhang Guan's heart was suddenly ecstatic, he participated in the competition to go for the championship. But in terms of expression, Zhang Guan frowned deliberately embarrassed, and said: "There are a lot of unexpected situations in this official game, and the game situation is also changing rapidly. Who can guarantee that you will win the championship if you participate. ”

"It's okay if you can't win the championship in these six events, but you won't be allowed to think about running in the middle distance in the future! At least until the next Olympics, give me a good sprint. Director Ma said.

"The center is afraid that my energy will be too distracted, which will affect the performance of the sprint event!" Zhang Guan said.

"I'm also afraid that your tail is too upturned, and I don't know how thick the sky is!" Director Ma continued.

Zhang Guan nodded: "That's okay, no problem, six champions are six champions!" 4 by 100 meters, as long as the others don't drop the chain, I'll bring you back the champion! ”

"Don't be too overly overwhelmed with that, just 800 meters. As you can see, Bahrain's Carmel won the championship. West Asians are world-class in the middle distance running event, not to mention this Carmel, yesterday in the 1500-meter event that Ramz also won a medal, in addition to Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia also have several African naturalized athletes, the strength is the world's first-class, at least there is no problem in entering the semifinals of the Olympic Games, but this time it is limited by the number of participants. Didn't come. Director Ma opened his mouth to persuade.

"You can rest assured, there are still fewer world champions who have lost to me over the years! I'm afraid there must be seven or eight, and one or two more would be better. Zhang Guan said confidently.

……

An interview with Zhang Guan was being shown on the television screen.

"Zhang Guan, you are the king of sprinting in the world. Winning the 200m event was something you had expected before the race, but I don't think anyone would expect you to break the 200m world record! Did you have a hunch that you would be able to break the 200m world record in the race? A reporter asked.

Zhang Guan thought for a moment and replied, "This is not at all." I was enjoying the race. So I didn't think about breaking the world record until I crossed the finish line and saw the final result. I realized I had broken the world record in the 200m. ”

"Zhang Guan, I saw rumors that you already have the strength to break the 200-meter world record, but you were deliberately hiding your strength before, right?" Another reporter asked.

"It's really not hiding the strength, it's because there are fewer 200m races, and many Grand Prix and Golden League don't have a special 200m race. I also didn't have a chance to express myself. Zhang Guan said.

Immediately, a reporter asked: "You now have three world records, and they are all sprints, it can be said that you are already a well-deserved king of world sprinting, in yesterday's competition, you also showed the world's top strength in the long jump event, I wonder if you have any ideas or plans to develop into other sports in the future?" Like High Jump? Pole vault? Or hurdles? ”

Zhang Guan remembered the middle-distance running that he had just been allowed to participate in the Asian Games not long ago, so he said: "I plan to try the middle-distance running next." ”

The reporters around him immediately raised their spirits, Zhang Guan is going to enter the middle distance running event, which is more attractive than the previous two topics. A reporter immediately asked: "May I ask if the middle distance run you are referring to is 800 meters?" ”

I saw Zhang Guan continue: "800 meters and 1500 meters, I want to give it a try." ”

The answer of "Oh ......" made the reporters on the scene even more excited, if Zhang Guan just went to run 800 meters, it was still within the range that could be forcibly understood, after all, 800 meters and 400 meters have some similarities, but 1500 meters are different, which has nothing in common with the sprinting events that Zhang Guan was engaged in before. As a sprinter, Zhang Guan will undoubtedly start from scratch if he runs 1,500 meters.

A female reporter asked expectantly, "How long do we have to wait to see you galloping in the middle distance race?" ”

"Actually, I participated in a middle distance race in a recent race in China. I participated in both the 800m and 1500m events. Zhang Guan replied.

"How's that going? Did you win the championship? The female reporter then asked.

Zhang Guan nodded, acknowledging it, and then continued: "That competition is also the selection of this year's Asian Games, and I think that in the Doha Asian Games in the near future, I should participate in the two middle-distance running events of 800 meters and 1500 meters." ”

"Wow!" The reporters around him immediately exploded, and the discussion continued.

"Zhang Guangang clubhouse this year! It's already September, which means it's three months away? ”

"Asian Games? Where was it held? When will it be held? ”

"I know, it's in Doha, Qatar. The time should be in early December. ”

"That's just over two months. You can see Zhang Guan's participation in the middle distance run! ”

Naturally, the voices of these reporters will not be recorded on TV, and when Zhang Guan has just finished answering questions, the TV screen has already switched back to the host.

The TV was suddenly pressed the pause button, and then a man in front of the TV, an elderly white man, said, "You all see, Zhang Guan is about to enter the middle distance running event." ”

The elderly man, named Virgil, is an American and a well-known middle-distance running coach in the United States, who had already lived a retired life, but was hired by Bahrain with a high salary to coach several famous middle-distance runners in Bahrain. Bahrain middle distance running has grown by leaps and bounds in recent years. It is precisely because Virgil is so well coached.

Not far from Virgil's side, Joseph Carmel pouted disdainfully: "Sprinting and mid-running are not the same. ”

Joseph Carmel had just won the 800m Athletics World Cup, and at this time he was in the limelight, and he didn't take Zhang Guan seriously at all.

"I think we have to pay attention to Zhang Guan, who is the most physically gifted athlete in the world, who can leap from 100 meters to 400 meters, and he can also break world records, maybe he can also achieve success in middle distance running."

The man who spoke was Rashid Ramz, who won both the 800m and 1500m world championships at the 2005 World Championships. At that time, he was known as the king of middle distance running. However, he was not in good form this year, so he failed to win a medal in the Athletics World Cup.

"Rashid, I admit that Zhang Guan's physical fitness is very good, but let's not forget that our physical fitness is not bad either. And there are a lot of tactics that can be used in middle distance running. You, me, plus Bella, if the three of us are there, we can drag down Zhang Guan with tactics! Carmel spoke.

The name "Bella" in Carmel's mouth is Bella Mansor Ali, and like Ramz, she is a naturalized Kenyan athlete from Bahrain. He once won the World Youth Championships in the 1500m, and his strength is also the best in the world, but he did not come to the Athletics World Cup this time. It is the kind of top player who failed to participate in the competition in Director Ma's mouth "due to quota restrictions".

Only to hear Carmel continue: "There are many talented athletes in this world, and Zhang Guan is not the only one who is dominant in sprint racing, you look at Phelps in swimming, he is also a monopolist in swimming sprint, but did he go to 1500 swimming?" Could it be that Phelps disdains to win a gold medal in the 1500m swim? Of course not. It was because Phelps was self-aware that even if he participated in the 1500-meter swim, he would not be able to win the championship. Jumping from the sprint to the middle distance and winning the world championship is something that no one else in this world can do! ”

Still uneasy, Ramz said: "Zhang Guan also mentioned in the press conference that he once won the gold medal in the middle distance running in China's domestic competitions. ”

"Domestic competitions in China? How many grades can I have? Carmel said dismissively.

At this time, Coach Virgil's mobile phone rang, and after he answered, he talked to the other party for a few words, then hung up the phone, and continued: "Gentlemen, I learned about Zhang Guan's participation in the middle running race in China through a friend. It was a national track and field championship in China, and Zhang Guan did not participate in the sprint, but won the 800m, 1500m and long jump. Zhang Guan's 800m time was 1:46.11 and the 1500m time was 3:35.85. ”

"Hahaha......" Carmel suddenly laughed: "1 minute and 46 seconds away, okay, we don't have to worry about Zhang Guan at all now." (To be continued.) )
