It's also thanks to Ye Kaicheng and Ling Junyong being dismantled by Su Liang's dispersion plan in the previous game, which made both of them dizzy, otherwise who can be the final winner in this game, let's not talk about it.

But when Pei Jing rushed up to check on Su Liang's situation as soon as possible after the game, Su Liang's first sentence was "Coach, I won" with a smile.

"Tell me about you, do you understand what I just told you? You get the idea! ”

Pei Jing looked at Su Liang, who was obediently sitting on the sofa and listening to his lesson, and at the same time he was tired, he was actually quite proud and relieved - athletes, in fact, they have some stubborn and stubborn characters in their bones, if there is no strong desire for victory, it is difficult for an athlete to persevere in the long, boring and difficult training, and in the difficult competition against various top players.

So when facing a player like Su Liang, Pei Jing was really painful and happy in his heart.

The pain is to try to break the words with him and crush them, and stuff the truth into his head, so that his mind, which only thinks about winning, can think of what 'restraint' is at a critical moment.

Needless to say, happiness is needless to say - after all, in addition to players like Su Liang, there is also the type that plays perfectly in training and can't inspire fighting spirit when he arrives on the field!

Thinking about it like this, Pei Jing continued to say bitterly: "So, Xiaoliang, if we encounter a final like today's next time, if we meet a final like today's again, can we rush again if our physical fitness allows?" ”

Su Liang sat on the sofa, listened to the training honestly, and then said seriously: "I'll try my best." ”

Pei Jing: ......

Pei Jing glared: "Try what's going on?" ”

Su Liang, who was sitting, thought about it and blinked, with a firmness and expectation in his eyes that was not easy to mistake: "Coach, I want to win." ”

……

Pei Jing understood-Su Liang wanted to win, so he could only try his best.

Okay.

After a night of lessons, it was all in vain.

Sighing, he asked Su Liang again: "How is the state of your body at this time?" ”

Su Liang's three 1500 meters today, the physical consumption is a little overloaded, especially the last one, when the results came out, he directly took the person to the lounge of the Beijing team, fortunately, the team doctor of the Beijing team has been waiting there, and prepared all the special functional drinks to supplement physical fitness for Su Liang, and he didn't dare to let Su Liang drink too much at first, so he directly began to massage him to recover.

After adjusting in the lounge of the Beijing team for more than half an hour, Su Liang's state was better, and then he came out and called a car back to the hotel.

It's just that although the person returned to the hotel, Su Liang was really tired, and he obviously didn't have any appetite for dinner at night, and he barely ate it purely to supplement nutrition.

This kind of high-intensity competition of athletes is very intense for the mental state and physical exertion, and it is not a short rest that can quickly recover to the best state.

In order to get back to the best condition, you need to cooperate with the dietitian's special meal and short-term training for the athlete to recover from various conditions.

Normally, a high-intensity event has to be followed by a week or two of recovery period.

Of course, in fact, just talking about today's national league sub-competition, in the schedule planning table of the national team players, the players should only be in the nature of 'adaptive competition', and for the national team players, this kind of competition should only be an event used to improve the competitive state of athletes before major competitions.

Su Liang's performance in the game today did have highlights and surprises, but at the same time, it also clearly exposed Su Liang's flaws - that is, the physical weakness brought about by his age itself.

Pei Jing shook his head: "You are sliding the adaptive competition out of the momentum of the competitive competition." ”

Regarding Pei Jing's lesson, Su Liang said frankly and bluntly: "But coach, I can only be qualified to participate in the 'competitive competition' if I win this 'adaptive competition' first." ”

"In that case, this competition for me is not 'adaptability', but 'competitiveness'."

Pei Jing, who still wanted to tell Su Liang two more words, was speechless after Su Liang's words.

Yes, he just remembered that the national league was only an 'adaptable' event level for the standard players of the national team, but he forgot that the reason why Su Liang chose to participate in this stop of all ages was to fight for himself to be able to embark on the qualification of the 'competitive' event.

After waking up suddenly, Pei Jing also apologized to Su Liang seriously - as Su Liang's head coach, no matter how anxious he was because of Su Liang's physical fitness problems, he should not forget such an important fact in the conversation.

Pei Jing asked himself that he was usually a thoughtful character, but in front of Su Liang, he sometimes felt that the disciple he brought with him was probably more than his own thoughts.

After sighing, Pei Jing was concerned about a new question: "With the current physical state, can you still hold on to tomorrow's game?" ”

The 500m race will take place on 22 September, and although the 500m is much shorter than the 1500m, the competitors will start sprinting almost from the first lap to grab the spot.

Su Liang's tactics in the 1500m have been almost exposed today, and his lateral upright start in the 500m distance will be the biggest difference in effect with the opponent's point ice start.

Therefore, in comparison, in the next 500-meter and 1000-meter races, various factors such as physical wear and tear, unfavorable starting skills and other factors are superimposed, and it is almost impossible for Su Liang to get a result like 1500 meters.

Pei Jing was a little worried that Su Liang's character was so persistent about victory, and if he suffered consecutive setbacks in the next two days, would it affect his game mentality.

Su Liang looked at Pei Jing seriously again: "Coach, don't worry, I remember the goal and purpose of this competition very clearly - my goal is to win the top three in the 1500-meter distance, and strive to qualify for the finals in the 500-meter and 1000-meter distance events." ”

Hearing Su Liang's smooth answer, Pei Jing patted Su Liang's shoulder: "Okay, you just have a number in your heart, but the specific situation still depends on tomorrow's game, if the opponent in the same group is too strong, then you don't have to fight too hard." ”

"Remember, it's all about your physical fitness, and now that you have the chips to win the 1500m, even if you don't get the ideal results in the 500m and 1000m due to physical reasons, the national team will definitely consider sending you to the World Cup first."

Pei Jing This is the big truth, Lin Guobin is now paying close attention to the echelon construction of the team, with Su Liang such a good seedling, as the head coach, Lin Guobin will definitely try his best to send Su Liang to participate in as many world-class events as possible, meet with international players, and feel the difference between international opponents and domestic opponents.

Su Liang nodded to show his understanding, and Mu Yuansheng, who was sitting quietly on the side, saw that Pei Jing and Su Liang were finally about to finish chatting, so they each handed a cup of warm boiled water in front of the two.

"Coach Pei, Xiaoliang, we've been chatting for so long, let's drink some water."

After seeing Mu Yuansheng, Pei Jing patted his head: "Hey, Yuansheng, tomorrow's 500 meters is your highlight, I have been chatting with Xiao Liang for so long in the room between the two of you." ”

Mu Yuansheng smiled: "It's nothing, Coach Liang, what you said, in fact, a lot of things I should pay attention to." ”

Hearing Mu Yuansheng say this, Pei Jing remembered that Mu Yuansheng did have similar problems with Su Liang, and the competition in the arena was not as good as Su Liang.

Pei Jing smiled and shook his head: "Oh, you, your usual character, if you don't say it, I forget that you are also fierce on the ice." ”

After the ridicule, Pei Jing said goodbye and asked Su Liang and the others to rest early, so that they could have a good state in the next day's competition.

After Pei Jing left, the time was not early, Mu Yuansheng and Su Liang were both players who had a game the next day, of course, they would not stay up late at this time to joke about their state, so the two of them simply cleaned up and lay down on their respective beds, but before going to sleep, Su Liang remembered that he was too tired today and forgot to call home.

But it's almost 10 o'clock now, and it's time to go to bed for warmth, and I don't know if it's appropriate to call at this time......

Although he was a little hesitant in his heart, Su Liang still tried to dial a landline number at home - if there was no answer after 3 rings, he would hang up quickly.

Su Liang thought so, but less than two seconds after the phone was dialed out, the beep of the first phone rang, and it was quickly picked up by the other side.

"Brother?!"

Su Liang was stunned, and it was Su Nuan who answered the phone.

This is a small point, and this time is still on the phone.

"Nuan Nuan, it's me."

"Wow! It's my brother! Brother Nuan Nuan misses you so much! ”

"Dad said that my brother is the champion, I want to congratulate my brother, but brother, what is the champion?"

Su Liang had just said 4 words, and he couldn't stop on the other end of the phone, and his slimy little milk voice sounded like he was already very sleepy, but he was still trying to talk to his brother.

After listening carefully for a while, Su Liang waited until Su Nuan's words on the other side had become a cycle again before he spoke: "It's late, it's time for my brother to go to bed, it's time for Nuan Nuan to go to bed, okay?" ”

In the hotel room where the headlights had been turned off, only the warm light of the reading lamp was still slightly lit at the head of Su Liang and Mu Yuansheng's bedside, and from Mu Yuansheng's point of view, Su Liang, who was leaning on the bed, seemed to have melted off the usual cold shell under the warm light.

After finally persuading Xiao Budian to go to bed and say good night, Su Liang also said good night to his father, and then hung up the phone.

After the phone hung up, the room regained its late-night quietness, Mu Yuansheng and Su Liang both lay back on their beds, and the two of them each turned off the nightlight at the bedside.

"Senior brother, good night."

"Xiaoliang, good night."

***

Early the next morning, the fixed biological clock had become a habit, and in the faint light of the morning light, Su Liang and Mu Yuansheng quickly woke up.

"Xiaoliang, wake up? How do you feel today? ”

Su Liang pinched his limbs, he was in much better condition than last night, but it was naturally not comparable to when he was in the best condition.

"Okay." He said: "I slept well last night and recovered well. ”

For athletes, deep sleep is an important aid to recovery.

Mu Yuansheng smiled and rubbed Su Liang's sleepy hair, and said, "That's good, get up, have breakfast, make preparations, a new competition is coming this afternoon!" ”

For Su Liang and Mu Yuansheng, the two players in Group A, their Group A competition will not start until the afternoon, and the morning is the competition of Group B players.

After the two calmly ate breakfast and adjusted their condition, when it was almost noon, they had a simple lunch in advance, and then rode together to the location of the short track speed skating hall for the competition.

The driver of the taxi that a few people took today was probably also an ice fan, and when he heard that they were going to a short track speed skating hall in Harbin City, he chatted with a few people.

"Oh, I heard from my ice fan friend that yesterday's 1500m was amazing! It's a pity, we brothers don't have a break all year round, and we are even busier on weekends and holidays, so I can't watch it as yesterday's game. ”

"But I watched the South Korea Invitational Tournament at the beginning, and I didn't lose money if I had that game as a foundation!"

"I still envy you, you can go to the scene, but I heard that the reporter of our Black Province Sports Station took a wonderful picture of yesterday's game, and there will probably be special news tonight, and I will also watch TV at that time!"

It wasn't until the person was sent to the place that the master remembered to take a closer look at the two young people who got off the car, but the driver was stunned at this glance - rub, among the people he just carried, the two small ones were not Mu Yuansheng and Su Liang of the national short track speed skating team? !

Speaking of Su Liang...... Isn't that the protagonist of the South Korea Invitational Tournament and yesterday's 1500m race?!

He just chatted with people in the car for a long time, and he showed off in the face of the owner?

Thinking so, the taxi driver couldn't help but call his friend and showed off again: "Eh, Lao Liu, didn't you say that you are still watching the game today?" ”

"Me? Me? Of course it's still driving, oops, you don't know who I just drove to! Mu Yuansheng and Su Liang just arrived at the competition venue in my car......"

***

In the venue, Su Liang and Mu Yuansheng walked to the direction of the Beijing team locker room with their bags on their backs after getting out of the car, and the two arrived at the right time to allow them to calmly change their skating clothes and equipment for the competition.

After the two of them changed into a full set of competition clothes, the preparation time for the event belonging to Group A in the afternoon has arrived.

Compared with the 1500m, the 500m race has a shorter single round, and the whole race only takes more than 40 seconds, so the arrangement of each group of races will be more compact.

Like the 1500-meter event, the 500-meter group A is also 40 competitors, a group of 5, divided into 8 groups for the preliminaries, of which the first place in each group directly advances to the semi-finals, and the 2-4 places in each group are sorted according to their results, and the top 10 players are promoted in succession.

Today's preliminaries have been announced on the official website of the Harbin Ice Association in the morning, Mu Yuansheng will appear in the second group of the preliminaries, and Su Liang will only play in the eighth group of the preliminaries.

Unlike looking at the grouping of other players, many ice fans who paid attention to the 1500-meter race the day before, after seeing Su Liang's grouping today, couldn't help but try to find a name named Zhou Haibo among his fellow players.

It's a pity that Zhou Haibo's name didn't appear in the same group as Su Liang again today, which is really gratifying.

Compared with the previous day's race, in the face of today's Su Liang, no one on the scene would dare to underestimate the champion of the 1500-meter distance the day before.

Even if he knew that the champion had consumed a lot of physical energy the day before, he also knew that what Su Liang was good at was long distance, but he smoked

These athletes in the same group as Su Liang all subconsciously paid attention to Su Liang.

Facing the gazes of these opponents around him, Su Liang just calmly glanced around everyone, and then nodded and asked simply

Good.

Although Su Liang didn't have any other extra meaning, maybe this was the effect of the 'Champion Aura' the day before, which made his opponents couldn't help but look awe-inspiring.

Actually, just like Su Liang said to Pei Jing the day before, he really didn't plan to fight too hard today, 500 meters and 1000 meters, his physical condition only allowed him to barely fight until the finals.

It's just that the aura of the 'sequelae' of the day before was too strong, or Su Liang's cold appearance made everyone feel that he was determined to win, so this made the pressure on the opponents in the preliminaries who were in the same group as him.
