As soon as they walked out of the airport, Chu Feng and his party met the team that picked up the plane from the UK.

To Chu Feng's surprise, a middle-aged man wearing sportswear, a peaked cap, and a stubble face turned out to be his old acquaintance Hu Cheng.

But it's not surprising to think about it, Hu Cheng himself is the coach of the national track and field team, and it is normal for him to come to the UK to compete with the national team.

What surprised Chu Feng even more was that a tall man who looked to be in his thirties and was about one meter tall standing with Hu Cheng had an extremely familiar face.

Isn't this the flying man Liu Xiang?

More than 10 years ago, Liu Xiang can be said to be the pride of the Chinese people, in the 2004 Athens Olympic Games, Liu Xiang 110 meters hurdles with a time of 1288 seconds, breaking the world record, the limelight is unparalleled.

He is also the first and only athlete in Chinese history to break the world record in track and field.

At that time, it could be said that it was popular all over the country. It can indeed be regarded as the pride of the Chinese people.

But the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.

At the 08 Yenching Olympics, Liu Xiang did not achieve ideal results, which also led to him being bombarded by friends at that time.

After 08, the results became less and less ideal, and then he retired.

Later, he experienced divorce and other events, and the reputation on him became worse and worse.

However, in the minds of many people, Liu Xiang is still the pride of the Chinese people. At least he's had a great time.

An athlete's career is generally not short.

Sprinters, in particular, have extremely high demands on physical performance.

After the heyday, it is no longer possible to surpass the past.

Later, the 100-meter world record was broken by the Cuban star Robles, with a speed of 1287, only exceeding the speed of 001 seconds, breaking Liu Xiang's record.

To this day, this is still the world's fastest 110 hurdles record.

After the world record was surpassed, Liu Xiang's reputation also deteriorated, because most people only remember who the first place was, and only remembered the highest world record holder.

This represents the pinnacle of the world, and once the pinnacle is broken, people will only promote the new peak. And you won't remember how brilliant you really were.

The world is cold, that's it!

Of course, no matter what you say, Chu Feng still maintains a certain respect for the athletes who have created brilliance.

"Brother Chu, you're finally here"

"Lao Hu, you are really not authentic, I didn't expect the person who picked you up to be you"

"I came here to pick you up, President Shu is also afraid that you are not familiar with the place and are a little unaccustomed, no, I have sent an old acquaintance of mine for a long time, and I don't need to introduce the person next to me, he is the head coach of the national team sprint."

"No, Liu Feiren's name is like thunder, he used to be my idol, if you don't say it, you still think that Liu Feiren is going to reappear Hello, I'm Chu Feng" Chu Feng smiled and stretched out his right hand.

"Don't make fun of me, what Liu Feiren, I'm already old, if you really want me to participate in the competition, maybe I'll have to lose the face of the countrymen again. This time, I attended as a pre-game instructor, you should be tired after such a long flight, so let's go back to the hotel to rest first!" Liu Xiang smiled and shook hands with Chu Feng politely.

The group soon took a special car to the athletes' reception accommodation specially arranged by the British government.

Because of the World Athletics Championships, Birmingham, an already prosperous city, has become more lively recently.

The streets were full of whites, blacks, and yellows, and some of them had their country's iconic emblem on them.

Athletes from nearly 150 countries around the world have come to Birmingham, and not only that, but many other countries have also come to Birmingham to watch the excitement of spectators.

And this time, there are not a few viewers who came from Huaxia.

Some Chinese people still have bandages on their foreheads, and the words on these bandages are not "Come on the Chinese team", "The Chinese team will win", "The Chinese team is invincible!" and so on. Most Chinese tourists actually have the words "Chu God Legion", "Chu God Ox Batch" and "Chu God Invincible" written on their foreheads.

These people are obviously fans of Chu Feng.

And it's in groups of three or five, one after another. It's clearly organized!

Chu Feng took the car to the athlete pick-up center on the way, but he saw a lot of such people on the road.

He didn't expect that there would really be so many fans who came to Birmingham to watch him play, and these people also formed a spontaneous organization.

It seems that there are more than ten times more people who come to cheer for him than those who specialize in cheering for the national team.

Chu Feng is also drunk!

At the same time, he was also a little moved, he was able to go to Birmingham to cheer him on, and spontaneously formed the "Chu God Army", which is a true love fan

The "Chu God Legion" has almost formed a beautiful landscape on the streets of Birmingham.

Because such an organized, disciplined, and unified fan support group is almost impossible to see in fan groups in other countries.

The fan groups of other countries are nothing more than pasting the national emblem of their own country on their bodies, and there is no unity of the "Chushen Legion" at all.

Those who don't know still think that the Chushen Army is another national fan group in Asia that comes to compete!

"Brother Chu, you really have a lot of fans, this time I really have a long experience, just this part of the drive, at least meet more than a hundred, right? I can still see so many of your fans in the UK, I am convinced, if I don't know you a little, I really think that these people are hired by you to support the scene!"

"Old Hu, don't make fun of me, I'm just a red!" Chu Feng spread his hands and said a little innocently.

"If you can be as red as you are, I'm afraid you're the only one in the world, and I've never heard of tens of millions of fans. ”

After entering the hotel where the British political and legal department is responsible for receiving athletes, Chu Feng met with the other athletes of the Huaxia team.

This time, there were about 100 members of the entire Huaxia team.

Among them, there are nearly a dozen athletes, and several of them are substitute members. There are more than a dozen entries in total.

Men's 100m dash, 110m hurdles, 4x200m relay, 800m. 1500-meter run, as well as javelin, shot put, high jump, long jump and so on.

Chu Feng participated in two events, the men's 100-meter sprint and the men's 110-meter hurdles. Chu Feng's arrival, the other athletes were not very welcome, and even a little repulsed.

First, he was not born as a regular athlete.

Second, because of his appearance, the other two athletes became substitutes, and naturally they would have rejected him.
