Suzhou is thousands of miles away.

An apartment with newly decorated traces, in the spacious living room, the LCD TV hanging on the wall is turning on, and the camera in the picture moves along with Zhao Lin’s walk...

"Zhao Lin won the first place in this group with an absolute advantage. It's very easy. This is the strength of the world champion. Let's take a look at his final results in this group..."

The sound of the TV was very loud, and the commentator Yang Jian always echoed in the living room with a passionate tone, and the sound came into the ears of the people sitting on the sofa.

"Oh ~ 10 seconds!"

The screen on the TV also switched to the timing card in front of the finish line.

"The result is 10 seconds, the wind speed is 0.4 meters against the wind, and we can see that this is just a preliminary after all, and Zhao Lin has not yet run into his best form..."

The audience cheered and applauded, and thundered, and it was truly spread through the TV.

In the picture, the young man who had gradually faded away was waving his hand to greet the camera and around him...

"My grandson, this is a promising future! This is a promising future. It has grown strong and grown up, but it is a little dark..." An old man sitting on the sofa dullly muttered with his lips trembling, and his eyes were filled with tears of excitement. He is Zhao Lin's grandfather, and he has been in his hometown and has not seen his grandson for half a year. At this time, he finally saw it on TV!

"Dad, of course it's a promising future. You didn't see my brother and sister-in-law coming back. How many leaders have come from our province and county? And those big bosses all came for our Xiaolin. How much does this house cost? It's like picking up for nothing..."

Next to Zhao Lin's grandfather was a pretty middle-aged woman in her 30s. Zhao Lin's sister-in-law also held the old father's hand and said excitedly: "Dad, brother, sister-in-law, why are you crying? You should be happy. Xiaolin didn't pass the university and is no longer successful now. Why can't our old Zhao family be successful? If it weren't for... I would have said that my sister-in-law would have asked Xiaolin to do sports. Our child in our family didn't have that talent. If he had the physique of Xiaolin..."

The 10-year-old boy who was scolded by his mother just looked ashamed, did not look at all ashamed. He sat on the sofa without stopping for a moment. He then grabbed the old man's arm and shouted: "Grandmad, my brother is so awesome, he runs too fast!"

"Yes, I ran too fast, I didn't even see clearly..." The old man smiled and touched his grandson's head and said softly.

"Of course, hurry up. Didn't you listen to the host's praise from beginning to end? Xiaolin has won the first place before foreigners..." Zhao Lin's sister-in-law still had the excitement of being honored: "Brother, sister-in-law, if you don't work in Yanjing, what business will you do when you come back? Come and help him take the helm with Xiaolin. He is now a sports star. He is young and able to make money, and he has face. Don't let him learn bad things..."

"Okay, what are you talking nonsense? What can Kobayashi learn?..." The old man was unhappy, and he only had a son and a daughter. When it comes to his grandchildren, he had only one relative and one grandson. He could not help but say it.

"Dad, you don't know..."

When she was still talking, Zhao Lin's father finally recovered from his senses and spoke.

"Little sister, Kobayashi has been training with his coach. Except for sometimes taking advertisements and accepting interviews, they don't go out at other times. If his coach is in charge, nothing will happen. Kobayashi is very honest with his coach, so their coach can control him!"

"Little sister, you don't know how close that kid is to his coach. He has never kissed your brother and me like this. He has not been home since he started doing this sports. Every time he comes back, he always tells him, our coach says, "What our coach says, I'll tell you..."

He kept staring at the TV until the scene of his son's game passed, and then his mother Zhao took her spirit back. When she heard that her son and coach, she pulled her sister-in-law and began to "scream" her son with her. Her expression was both the pride of her mother and the "sad" of her son as if she was snatched away.

Zhao's father watched his wife and his sister complain about things, and laughed loudly. In fact, there were only a few things back and forth, and there was not much to say, but his wife was still very interested in talking.

Is my son kissing the coach? Dear, and it is the kind of dear relative who is deeply loved from the bottom of his heart. Should it be? When I think of the scene on the side of the training ground, my son's disappointment and surprise, and all the achievements he has had until now, should be!

"Brother, the coach you are talking about is the one who accepted Zhao Lin in the training ground? I heard that he is very young, right?" He didn't say anything as if he was thinking about the middle-aged man, and then asked.

In the spacious living room, Zhao Lin's family sat around the sofa, Zhao Lin's grandfather, parents, sister-in-law and uncle, as well as his teenage cousin, are all closest family members recently. Since Zhao Lin started practicing sports, they have been together for the first time to watch Zhao Lin running on TV. The person who spoke at this time was Zhao Lin's uncle, a person who looked stern and serious in his 40s.

"Yes, that's the one. He is really young, but he is really capable!" Zhao's father nodded seriously. When talking about this coach, he unconsciously showed a bit of respect: "You have never been in sports, and you may not understand it very much. Our Chinese Sports seems to be very strong, and the Olympic gold medal list has always been in the top three and four. But we can't do the track and field events that are most valued by people in the Olympics!

If our country can win a world championship in track and field events, it is a breakthrough in the sky. Do you still remember the Ma family army who was always on TV in the past few years? It is a track and field event, middle and long-distance running. After winning the world championship several times, even the national leaders personally received it.

The 100-meter run by Kobayashi is now a sprint, which is the most important event in track and field events. No one with our yellow skin has ever been out before. So when Kobayashi runs this grade, the province and county people value it so much. I understand their thoughts, it is nothing more than asking Kobayashi to give her image or add something to them.

If you really talk about the person who is attracted to the top level, why is the Ma Family Army called the Ma Family Army? Because the coach's surname is Ma, he is the leader..."

"When Xiaolin said she wanted to do sports, I looked for people everywhere with her connections, but Xiaolin was really old and no one was willing to ask for it. In the end, I took Xiaolin directly to the training ground of the Yanjing national team. There was a senior brother in my team who was coaching, but the same was true. It was confiscated. That was the same day, Coach Lin asked Xiaolin to run once and then accepted him.

At that time, I looked young and seemed to be a little too hasty to collect, and I didn’t have much confidence in my heart. Because no one really wanted it, now that the national team coach is willing to collect it, what else can I think? No matter what I can run, it will finally fulfill my dream of a child. I didn’t expect that I could run like this now.

Coach Lin also has an athlete who ran 200 meters in the competition when Kobayashi won the world championship. He is also a world champion, and he seems to have won the Asian champion himself. The meaning of this, brother-in-law, do you understand? Coach Lin has just passed the age of 24 not long ago..."

Zhao Lin's uncle nodded. Although he is not a sportsman or a high-level person, how could he not understand the meaning of this, as an administrative person. As long as this coach Lin does not make political mistakes, his future is promising!

"Then this coach Lin is really extraordinary. Dezhu, Xiaolin is following others now. After all, it is still the one who has pulled us out. No matter how many people Xiaolin holds us outside, we should not be confused. Our Zhao family must not lose our gratitude..."

Listening to the old father's solemn explanation, Zhao's father nodded seriously. Is the change big? Of course it's big! In less than a year, his son's various bonus income was more than he earned in the past few decades. Not to mention, Suzhou, Nanhu, city, county, leaders, and company bosses have all come to express their condolences many times.

After returning from Yanjing, I was going to do some business I had always wanted to do in my hometown. The city and county have a green light all the way. I bought a house with half and half a gift, and I don’t need to pay cash for the half sold. Even my sister and brother-in-law have benefited a little.

All these changes are just an encounter and a firmness. The lessons to come from the past are there. The child who once followed Coach Lin with his son and flew after several national championships. His current situation is not bad, but it is so different from that time. What's more, such a coach who is already full of honors at the age of 24 is worth getting close to in any aspect.

"Brother, if you want to say that, then we should be closer, maybe we should do something..."

What should I do? Father Zhao listened and nodded as if thinking!

...

"He Jun, it's time to rest!"

When the Yucheng delegation was staying in the gym of the hotel, Coach Li saw the back of a young man holding a barbell there as soon as he walked into the door. He couldn't help but shake his head.

After squatting, lifting it up, and after a few more times, He Jun stopped and slowly put the barbell back in place. He turned around, moved his limbs slightly panting and walked towards Coach Li, "Coach, you haven't had a rest yet, right? Is it almost 10 o'clock?"

"You still know it's 10 o'clock?! I just finished the race a few hours ago, and there will be competition tomorrow. What you should be relaxing. I won't come. How long do you plan to practice? Can I rest?"

"I don't plan for long, I'm going to take a break!" He Jun shook his head, smiled embarrassedly, and explained, "I just ran a preliminaries today, and I didn't put in much effort, so I'm not tired."

"What? Are you envious? Or are you a little hit?"

Coach Li said it very straightforwardly. He Jun followed him when he first entered the sports school in his 10s. Because of He Jun's grades and potential, after being selected for the national team, he also followed him as a coach. He knew He Jun very well, and with He Jun's relationship with him, he didn't need to say a word.

The coach's words made He Jun's expression fade away instantly, and he became silent.

Coach Li looked at He Jun who was silent in front of him, and in a daze, he seemed to see a few years ago. At that time, he had just taken He Jun. The 13-year-old boy gave him the initial impression of being sensitive and stubborn. After so many years, he has not changed.

He gently patted He Jun on the shoulder and grew up! The boy who used to be barely 1.6 meters away when he was just taking him is now an Ang-Zang youth.

"Sit down and rest for a while? Let's talk to our master and apprentice, we haven't had a chat for some time, right?"

Following the coach's side, He Jun bent his legs and hugged his knees with his hands, and slowly breathed out.

"Master, I don't envy you. Honors are all based on results. I just..." He Jun's voice was soft, with a little unwillingness and stubbornness, and said slowly, "Actually, I know I can't win the 100-meter race. What the city said might be that they can fight for unstable performance, maybe they don't even believe it. I just think, why is this so fast...

In just half a year, from ordinary people to world champions and Asian champions, the results have ranged from 12 seconds to less than 10 seconds. And I... Master, do you think my talent is really so much worse?”

"The talent is much worse? No!" Coach Li shook his head slightly, sighed, and said, "Their progress is indeed very fast, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a miracle. But it is hard to say how good the talent is!"

"That……"

"Maybe it's my responsibility?" Coach Li looked a little lonely. He was still young. He was just over 40 years old. When he was just taking care of He Jun, he was only in his 30s. He was afraid that he would not be able to take good care of his level. He worked hard to learn to enrich himself. The process of taking care of He Jun was also the process of his improvement. That period of time was when he felt that he had made the fastest progress.

His efforts also paid off. He Jun won the provincial championship, qualified to represent China in the World Youth Championship, won the national youth track and field championship, and entered the national team. What is expected will be one of the core of the future national team sprint event...

But more than a year has passed, and he felt that the urgent thing he had once thought of improving himself and bringing breakthroughs to athletes has become weak. He Jun has not made much progress in more than a year, so where has he made progress? It is much more difficult to make another breakthrough than maintaining a stable level! What's more, there are many suggestions from the municipal competent departments.

Coach Li can understand He Jun's mood very well, but he didn't. In the original domestic competition, he competed with Chen Jianhai, Yang Zuyao, and Shen Bao, and occasionally he could win and lose each other, and he was stable in the top 5 or even the top 4 in the country. However, since the first half of this year, the game was suppressed to the end, even Chen Jianhai and Shen Bao were all.

And he has gone from being a top coach and a young talent praised by many people to such an awkward situation now. Even when he returned to Yucheng, he felt that he was less courteous than before.

More importantly, in a World Championship, the individual event did not meet the standards and the qualification for connection is no longer available. Now He Jun's situation has become very nervous in the national team. There is no competitiveness in the individual event, and the relay is only the sixth or even the seventh one.

He knew that He Jun had always wanted to participate in international competitions and even Olympics through his own strength, but now, this hope seems to be getting slim. Should we say that athletes are not as talented as others, or should we say that athletes are not working hard? After the competition, he still wanted to come to the gym to show off his strength, and you can't find any excuses.

"He Jun! We need to make some changes!" Coach Li calmed down and said firmly: "Maybe, I should be the one who needs to make efforts for change first!"

He never worried about He Jun's training attitude, he had never delayed the tasks arranged, and sometimes he even needed to stop them. Maybe he was the one who really wanted to change!

"Okay! Let's take a break!" He patted He Jun's back gently and said seriously: "Tomorrow, you will run with all your strength at 100 meters, regardless of ranking, not for honor, just to run out our former beliefs. Chen Huan and Zhao Lin are not old, and you are just as young as you!

There is also the 200 meters behind. Although there are no strong players in your age group, the same is true. Regardless of ranking or honor, we cannot break through ourselves at the moment, so we also need to cheer ourselves up!"

"Master, I will get the 200-meter gold medal..." He Jun said firmly. Without Yang Zuyao, without Yin Hanzhao, he must fight for it whether it is for the present or the future, for himself, for the coach and the Yucheng team.

What he needs is not only the honor of a youth champion, but also some affirmation. Let the breath in his heart and the blood that is moving towards a higher field, not completely dissipate!

...

As night falls, after the hustle and bustle of the day, the whole of Tanzhou slowly moves towards tranquility.

After the one-day competition of the City Games ended, most of the young athletes from all over the country had already rested.

However, what is silent is the person, what is beating is the heart. In every corner, there is restlessness, silence, passion, and falling and sinking!

Tomorrow will still come, and countless people may be waiting, waiting for them to achieve their dreams with their hands and walk out of their own path with hard work and hard work!
Chapter completed!
