The WeChat group was quite lively at first, but later the Chinese team's game was not very smooth, and Lin Rui stopped talking and only posted video clips.

Everyone didn't discuss it anymore, and silently watched the young players of the Chinese team make consecutive mistakes, allowing the Russian team to score 6 points in the first half.

In the second half, Si Lingling and her teammates tried their best to save, but after all, they were powerless to recover and lost 6-8 and missed the final.

This meant that they would have to compete for bronze against another group of losing Swiss teams, and the outcome was unpredictable, and dark clouds hung over the hearts of the Chinese players.

After the game, Si Lingling saw the news in the group and immediately apologized in frustration, saying that she didn't play well today, dragged down her teammates, and failed to win glory for the motherland.

Everyone in the group rushed to comfort her.

Li Changyi didn't speak again, and silently wished Si Lingling a good performance in the next game.

In fact, in the next bronze medal battle, the Chinese team played really well, but the Swiss team against it was also very strong, the first round of the two sides exchanged blanks, and then the game began to enter the white heat, the scores of the two sides rose alternately, and the score came to 4-4 in the tenth game.

Unexpectedly, the Chinese team, which had the advantage of the back hand, made a mistake and was stolen by the Swiss team by 2 points.

In the end, the Chinese team fell short and missed the podium 4-6.

No one mentioned this competition in the group, and Li Changyi saw it from the news report afterwards. After the embarrassment of the last time, everyone apparently stopped the discussion very tacitly.

Li Changyi said a very mediocre and bland comforting word to Si Lingling in a private message: "It's a pity, but the game is like this, if you don't play well this year, then you will fight again next year." ”

Si Lingling replied in seconds: "Thank you, Brother Yi, I will definitely work hard next time." Are you still in Zugspitze? ”

"Yes, but our training is almost over, and we plan to return home in three days."

"I heard that it's very cold in the mountains these days, you must pay attention to keep warm, don't catch a cold like in New Zealand that time."

"Fortunately, I brought some more warm clothes this time, and it was still very warm after exercising every day."

The two didn't have much in common, chatting and talking about the photos in the WeChat group that day.

The girl especially emphasized that the photo was taken by Lin Rui with her, and she was just embarrassed to refuse, but she didn't expect him to post it in the group.

This explanation obviously exposed the girl's mind, but Li Changyi didn't understand: "Oh, it's very good-looking, your hair is longer than before." Lin Rui has also changed, and he seems to be much stronger. By the way, didn't he dislike ice hockey in the first place? Now it's fun to watch. ”

Si Lingling didn't want to continue to show her heart, so she talked about Lin Rui along the topic: "How can there be!" He is trapped in the ice hockey circle, the ice hockey team has a rule, never lose a talent, stay and play the game, almost send back to China to participate in the league, if it is really not good, go to youth training, unless retired, there is no opportunity to change the project. ”

Through her narration, Li Changyi knew that ice hockey is facing greater development pressure than other ice and snow sports.

At the Asian Winter Games in Sapporo, Japan, the Chinese ice hockey team lost all three games and conceded 32 goals, but none of them broke through the opponent's door. If this result is still achieved at the Beijing Winter Olympics, it will be a disaster!

But this is another team competition, and it is ineffective to practice behind closed doors. Athletes have to be thrown into high-level competitions to be polished.

Finland is an ice hockey powerhouse, and Lin Rui's training team joined its domestic league, hoping to improve the level of competition by training.

However, it is said that the main force of their current team is mainly foreign aid and Chinese players, and after a layman like Lin Rui came, he still practiced basic skills such as skating and physical fitness every day, and his life was very unsatisfactory.

As she spoke, Si Lingling said with emotion: "I thought that Song Ting was the most unlucky, but I didn't expect Lin Rui to be worse than him." Is there something wrong with our country's training system? ”

Li Changyi is quite content: "I think it's okay, there is no cross-border and cross-item selection, and I am still moving ice cubes in the aquatic market." ”

"No, I mean we just know how to train hard, but we just think of it as a task or a long-term job, and we don't really love the project."

"Oops? What you said is so profound. ”

"It's not what I said, after the game yesterday, the foreign coach gave us a meeting, and he said that we should enjoy the fun of this sport and appropriately reduce the blind study of pure technical aspects."

"Hmm, do you think he's right?"

"It makes sense, they seem to be like this, happy training, enjoying the game."

Si Lingling's words made Li Changyi fall into deep thought, and he remembered the scene when he saw foreigners sprinkling joy in the snow before, and there was laughter and laughter everywhere. Back in the Chinese training team, everyone always kept a straight face, and they couldn't hear a few laughs a day.

There is also Coach Tang, who strictly prohibits everyone from doing actions outside of training, which seems to effectively reduce the chance of injury, but it also kills everyone's interest in this sport.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the curling coach was reasonable, and he should communicate with Coach Tang about this matter.

Unexpectedly, when Tang Huai heard Li Changyi's thoughts, he actually jumped off the bed all of a sudden, he really jumped with a very agile movement.

However, after he landed, he raised his hand and hit: "Who instilled these nonsense ideas in you?" Enjoying sports? Enjoying the game? Happy training? Make your spring and autumn dreams! ”

Li Changyi and his master have been practicing for ten years, and when they saw Tang Huai slashing over, they stopped it with Wing Chun's moves without thinking about it, and even almost punched back.

Fortunately, Tang Huai's pigtails swaggered and reminded Li Changyi to stop in time.

Tang Huai looked at the fist that stopped halfway, and the black line in his head: "What's the matter?" You still want to do it to me? The wings are stiff and unacceptable, right? ”

He jumped up and hit as he spoke, and Li Changyi had no choice but to run around the house to dodge.

The two chased and fled, and Tang Huai suddenly stopped: "Hey? Is my waist right? It doesn't hurt anymore! ”

He was so emotional just now that he couldn't tell how he was moving around, but he was temporarily cured of his back injury by mistake.

At this time, he was in a good mood, and he didn't bother to be angry with Li Changyi anymore, so he called him to his side and talked about his good intentions:

"In my opinion, enjoying the game and training happily is a nonsense, the winner uses it to pretend, and the loser uses it as an excuse!"

"I ask you, what is happiness? Were you happy when you were overtaken by Ullihan? Are you happy when you are blocked by Zhang Zhiwang? Are you happy watching others come up on stage to receive awards? You are not happy, you can only be happy if you surpass them and knock your opponent down! ”

"Therefore, if you want to be happy, you must bury your head in the technology, pick out the details to the death, only by studying hard and tempering hard, you can control the game, master the know-how and ability to win, and then you will be qualified to talk about enjoying the game and talking about happy training!"

"It's time for you to lay the foundation at this stage, hurry up and clear these fallacies out of your mind, otherwise it will hurt you sooner or later!"
