Chapter 5 - Human nature is a gamble, everyone is good at gambling!
In physicality, as a striker, speed is paramount. In particular, the starting speed, as well as the acceleration after starting. Powerful starting speed, which can overtake defenders in an instant. To maintain this post-start advantage, the ability to accelerate after starting is key.
Tang Jue and Arendt are competing for speed, and both are forwards. Arendt's speed of 30 meters, known as the second in France, Arendt's most powerful is the acceleration ability after starting. The two were neck and neck in the first twenty meters, and almost everyone thought that Tang would lose.
The rest of the Paris Saint-Germain II squad stood under a parasol on the sidelines, with their parasols facing the finish line. The two of them won the battle in the last three meters, and they saw a black hair like an arrow, protruding from the side by side, and the short guy actually won!
In an instant, Sark let out a howl!
Beneath the howl, there were more sighs, and those were the voices of the other team members, because they had lost!
Cantona couldn't help but smile, and then his brow furrowed slightly, as if he was thinking about something.
……
Crossing the finish line, Tang never stopped immediately, but ran forward more than ten meters with inertia. After Arendt crossed the finish line, he was still running fast, as if the race was not over yet, and he must overcome Tang Jue. Because he is the king of this runway, and here before, no one has beaten him.
A gust of wind blew, and Tang Jue's black hair fluttered in the wind!
It's the wind blowing from Arendt's Run!
Arendt suddenly howled, and the howl was full of grief and unwillingness. He was defeated by this short man, this black-haired Chinese, he was unwilling!
Arendt gasped, turned around, his eyes were like swords, he looked at Tang Jue and said, "Let's come again!" ”
Tang Jue suddenly laughed because he thought what Arendt said was funny. He bared his white teeth and said with a smile: "Arendt, today I am testing, not a thirty-meter race. ”
Arendt still didn't give up, he said, "Otherwise, we'll come back after you run twelve minutes after the test." I underestimated you just now, and I didn't do my best. I must be faster than you! ”
Tang Jue looked at Arendt seriously and said, "I'll finish the twelve-minute run, and you'll race with me for another thirty meters?" Hum! Do you think it's fair? ”
Arendt's face turned red, if it was fair, he should also accompany Tang Jue to run for twelve minutes together, and then race the thirty meters. However, a 12-minute run was too hard. He didn't want to accompany Tang Jue for a twelve-minute run.
Tang Jue continued: "And let me tell you, I didn't do my best just now, I just accelerated a few meters after the last few meters, and I easily overtook you, if I had accelerated earlier, you would have been defeated a long time ago!" ”
Tang Jue's words inspired Arendt's fighting spirit, he used to be the king of this runway, he wanted to defend his kingship, a sharp flash flashed in his eyes, he made up his mind!
Tang Jue suddenly said, "You wouldn't think of running with me for twelve minutes and then coming back to the race, right?" ”
Arendt's eyes were full of war, and he said fiercely: "That's what I think!" ”
Tang Jue smiled and said happily: "Okay! ”
Face the challenge and rise head-on!
……
The technician looked at the electronic stopwatch in his hand, which read: 3.55 seconds. This is Arendt's result.
"Up 0.1 seconds!" He said in amazement.
Lakenbay looked at the electronic stopwatch in his hand in surprise, and said in his mouth: "3.47 seconds"
Obviously, Tang Jue gave him a big shock, because he knew that Benzema's 30-meter time, Benzema's 30-meter time was 3.54 seconds!
This means that the speed of 30 meters is the fastest in France!
His speed of 30 meters can be ranked in the top five in Europe!
Cantona shook his fan, walked up arrogantly, and asked, "How much?" ”
"3.55 seconds"
"3.47 seconds"
Cantona suppressed his joy in his eyes and said fiercely to the technician, "I said that he is very fast, and there is no need to test it. You see, the results are so good now. Obviously, he was still haunted by what had just happened. He was venting his frustration.
The technician ignored his dissatisfaction and continued to insist: "According to the regulations......"
"Okay, I won't worry about that." Cantona rudely interrupted him. Shaking a fan, he slowly walked under the parasol arrogantly. He seemed to be thinking about something.
The technicians registered the results of the two in the notebook, and at this time, Tang Jue and Arendt walked under the parasol where the players were. Sack was collecting the money, his face beaming with excitement, his golden brows slightly upturned.
"Hadad, quick, five thousand...... Arnold, six thousand, fast ......"
He held a large stack of flowery francs in his hands, and his eyes turned into two crescents. The other players shook their heads, reluctantly took the money out of their sports bags and handed it to Sark.
Tang Jue and Arendt looked at them curiously, goalkeeper Arnold handed the money to Sack, he saw Arendt, he asked loudly: "Arendt, what did you just want to release water for?" I lost 6,000! ”
Arendt's face turned red and she was embarrassed. Where would he not try his best to run, he is the king on this runway, he wants to defend the glory of his king, how can he release water? If Tang Jue's speed is too poor and he wins too much, he puts some water and doesn't let the opponent lose too ugly, which makes some sense.
However, just now, the two of them have been neck and neck, and it was not until the last three meters that the winner was decided, how could he release the water!
Only then did Tang Jue realize that they were gambling. Life is really full of casinos!
Tang Jue patted Zak, who was counting the money, and asked, "How much did you win?" ”
"One hundred and sixty thousand!" Sack said happily. He turned his head to see that it was Tang Jue, his two crescent moons became thinner, and his pupils could barely be seen. He patted Tang Jue's shoulder vigorously and said loudly: "Tang, you are running so fast, do you know the way, Arendt has never lost here, they all bet on Arendt to win." Ha Lu Ha, Ha ...... I won, oh no, I should say we won together. Good work, come and drink water! ”
Sack handed the mineral water in his hand to Tang Jue, he forgot that this water he had already drunk.
After the game, Sack was very depressed, because during the game, he was at a disadvantage in the confrontation with Tang Jue. Now he is very happy, because he won, 160,000 ah, equal to half a month's salary of him!
Tang Jueyang raised the mineral water bottle in his right hand, indicating that he had water. Tang Jue's eyes blinked and said, "Wait a minute, I'm going to run for twelve minutes, and I still have to race with Arendt, I'm sitting in the bank, do you still want to bet?" ”
Everyone looked at Tang Jue in amazement, and then looked at Arendt. After running for 12 minutes, still have to race? This, that's crazy! By the way, it doesn't seem fair, Don runs for twelve minutes, then Arendt is resting......
Arendt said solemnly: "For the sake of fairness, I will run with him for twelve minutes." ”
Now it's fair, but who to bet on? Tang didn't win much just now, and the speed of the two seemed to be about the same......
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, they are hesitating. Tang Jue said: "Okay, you don't have to decide right away, wait until we finish running for twelve minutes, and then you will make a decision." ”
He turned to Arendt again and asked, "Are you alright?" ”
So fast? Arendt glanced at Tang Jue suspiciously, the pride of youth, how could he let the other party trample on it casually, come here, Arendt raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay!" ”
After signaling to the technicians, Tang Jue and Arendt began to run around the football field for twelve minutes. At sunset, only two shadows accompanied them.
Tang Jue's chest rose and fell rhythmically, and in the scorching heat, the sweat on his forehead was desperately flowing down his cheeks. Crystal sweat, shining in the sunset, as if a pearl is shining. Arendt was twenty meters behind Tang Jue, he looked a little painful, and his breathing was very thick.
With the passage of time, Arendt was pulled farther and farther away by Tang Jue, the eyes of the players under the parasol did not hesitate, and Haddad said softly in Sark's ear: "Arendt, this guy is really cunning, and he actually made a painful look." I'm going to place a bet, you? ”
Sack's brows condensed slightly, he hadn't made the final decision, and he didn't know anything about Tang Jue.
"I'm going to get down!"
"I'm going to get down!"
The teammates have made decisions because they can see that Arendt is saving his strength!
Sack looked at the distance between the two and he made a decision!
……
"It's time!" The technician shouted!
Tang Jue slowed down and slowly ran forward. Arendt bent over, very painful!
"3150 meters!" Rakenbay said to the technicians, who were afraid that they would make a mistake about the distance. The technician nodded and said, "Yes, Tang's score is 3150 meters. He looked up at the painful Arendt and said: "Arendt's performance is not good, only 2750 meters, he used to be able to run more than 3,000 meters." He wasn't in good shape today. ”
Lakenbay is quite satisfied with Tang's twelve-minute run. In terms of physical fitness, speed is the most important thing for a striker, and for endurance, the requirements are not very high. Tang Jue's results are in the middle of the team, but they are in the upper reaches of the forwards.
Tang Jue stopped, took a few deep breaths, and walked under the parasol, his face relaxed. He asked the crowd, "Have you thought about it?" Five minutes later, we're playing! ”
"Alright, I'm going to bet!"
"Yes, I'm going to bet too!"
The players have said they have already made a decision. Tang absolutely looked at Sack and said, "Sack, you can help me record it." Sack looked at Don's confident face, and he began to waver.
"Good!" Sack said through gritted teeth. He no longer hesitated and began to register the bets of his teammates.
The movement under the parasol attracts the attention of another parasol. Coaches generally ignore this kind of gambling between players. This kind of gambling is not a big bet, and most of the time, it will also stimulate the fighting spirit of the players.
Cantona raised his eyebrows and said to Lakenbe, "Lakenbe, or we're going to bet too!" ”
Cantona is a court fighter, and a fighter is a gambler!
Lakenbay looked at Cantona, thought for a moment, and then said, "Good! Then I'll take a gamble! ”
"I'm going to bet too." Assistant coach Gameiro said.
Human nature is a gamble, everyone is good at betting!
Some people bet on the future with today, and some people bet on today with the future. The purpose of gambling is the same, they are all to win, only the bets are different, some people use their bodies to make bets, some people use health to make bets, and some people directly use money to make bets. Tang Jue only has a thousand francs on him, he doesn't have much money, he can only make a bet with confidence!
