Chapter 221 Some people hold the flag, some people show it

A bang knock on the door sounded.

In the dormitory area of ​​the training base, Lin Mu was sorting out the information of athletes in recent times, and when the knock on the door sounded, his assistant Zheng Shutong, after receiving a response, he pushed the door and walked in.

"Guide Lin, everyone is ready and we are about to set off!" After entering the door, Zheng Shutong reported respectfully, and his eyes couldn't help but go around the furnishings in Lin Mu's room.

Even though he has been here not once or twice, he can't help but want to take a look every time he comes in, and he still sighs every time.

It is simple to be more than 10 square meters, a desk, a computer, a bed, and two simple furniture. If you don’t know for sure, you will definitely not imagine if you are unfamiliar with someone. This is where people in the top national team status currently live.

When he first came, he had a vague guess in his mind whether the coaches and athletes were unconventional and pretended to behave. But after getting along with each other, he was sure that it was no.

The affairs department came to him several times, but because they couldn't understand what they wanted to change to Director Lin's suite. But Director Lin felt it was troublesome and he had no choice but to come to him. He was a living assistant, and his service object was not something he could control. In the end, he could only discuss with the affairs department how to be more thoughtful in logistics services!

"Wait a minute, there are two more left!" Lin Mu did not turn around, his hand did not stop, and he quickly tapped the keyboard. This made Zheng Shutong feel admiration and emotion again. In this era, computers have just been popular for a few years, and not many people can operate them skillfully. There are even fewer athletes and coaches.

"Well, let's go!" Only a minute or two later, Lin Mu turned off the computer, got up and pulled out the power switch, and then simply cleaned up the desktop.

Zheng Shutong had already pulled Lin Mu's suitcase and prepared in front of his head. Although it was only a local competition in Yanjing, the schedule was two days, from tonight to the end of the day after tomorrow, they would not return to the base. They had to prepare daily supplies, clothes, shoes and hats.

Athletes need more sports equipment, nails, and even socks. They must prepare everything in detail. This is what they are doing.

Looking back at the dormitory, recalling and confirming that there was no omission, Lin Mu took his people downstairs and headed towards the gathering place.

A new journey has begun!

...

February 22

Indoor track and field in Huangsi Gymnasium.

In the 2004 National Indoor Track and Field Championships, the Yanjing Station competition is about to begin.

Because it was the last indoor competition in China in 2004, in order to test the results of winter training and to accumulate strength before the next stage of outdoor competitions. This site's competition attracted nearly 700 athletes from various events from more than 40 provinces, cities and sports teams in China to participate. This also made this battle the largest number of participants and scale of indoor competitions this year.

Many domestic newcomers, veterans, athletes from national and local teams will make their debut in the two-day competition. In addition to Liu Xiang, who participated in the sub-station competition in Europe, almost all the athletes from the national track and field teams are here.

Lin Mu and his team were still there, just like the previous two competitions. As early as yesterday, the project team had arrived at the competition site. Under the arrangement of the organizer, dozens of coaches, athletes and auxiliary personnel checked in the hotel, and then led the athletes to get familiar with the venue and resume some adaptive training.

After a night of rest, a bus came with a load of loads early this morning and the competition was about to begin!

"The athletes' situation is basically stable, and they are in good condition. The schedule of the two days, and these athletes in the team are not under pressure on both events, and the schedule of the competition is not tight. This is the list of players and schedules for participating events..."

In the lounge, Yuan Guohua handed Lin Mu the schedule and list of players for the two events that their team will participate in for this competition, the 60m and 200th competitions, and then sat next to him casually.

It is not a big lounge, but the facilities are very complete, including electrical appliances, tables and chairs, athletes may need to recover, and everything required for physical therapy is complete. This is specially arranged by the organizing committee for them. Generally, sports teams do not have such treatment, which is also considered some special benefits for them as core coaches of the national team.

"There are quite a lot of familiar names, haha!" Lin Mu looked at the form in his hand, smiled and said to several other coaches.

"It's true that there are quite a lot of them. We have been in contact with them during the winter training period. We have spent a lot of effort on the formulation and implementation of their training plans." Yuan Guohua smiled and pointed to several names on the list.

"Well, I don't know how the follow-up training is going, how the results are now! Hope..." Lin Mu had some impressions of the few people who clicked, and they were all athletes with some status and strength in each team. During the winter training, the training plan was not done once or twice.

In fact, compared to what the results will be, Lin Mu is actually more concerned about whether the coaches leading the team can understand the training arrangements. After mastering the methods and methods, as long as the athletes are willing to work hard, the results will be a natural thing. In a winter training, they were very busy, and he also hoped that these seeds could take root and sprout completely.

"Guide Lin, I said you are too...why?, hi~" Lin Mu sighed, Liu Ren couldn't help but scream. It's not that he is unstable and likes to quarrel, he really thinks Lin Mu is too worried.

"Those who have worked hard during the winter training now have to take care of their follow-ups. They have already led a path. Whether the follow-up can continue to develop, they should worry more about themselves. Even for the sake of national track and field career, they can't always expect anyone to be their life mentors. Maybe they are not happy!"

The other coaches in the same room couldn't help but move their faces. The speakers were unintentional and the listeners were intentional. Even if they had a higher status, they were also one of the group of people who benefited from Lin Mu's concern. Liu Ren's words made them a little embarrassed.

They were not easy to talk, but Yuan Guohua understood it, and then he scolded Liu Ren, "Old Liu, how can you understand the heart of Coach Lin? Don't whine it. We are all working for track and field. Even if these coaches are the coaches, athletes may not be able to live with us in the future, but they are also our sports power in China...

Didn’t Coach Lin say that our track and field circle is very small now. If we want to have good development, we must make the whole plate bigger. How to make it bigger requires a top group of flags, and we also need to rely on this lot of strength to support this atmosphere..."

"Hey, I said Lao Yuan, I found that you are becoming more and more like Director Lin now, and you are even speaking. I said..." Liu Ren couldn't help but scream, but the most of the things he talked and joked were obviously the ones.

"Okay! Old Liu, Old Yuan is right. You are really whispering. The athletes are time to compete later, let's prepare!" Lin Mu waved his hand and stopped Liu Ren and continued. He had seen some updates. He didn't want too many estrangements between their team members because of inadvertent speech.

He is basically satisfied with the current atmosphere, and it is not easy to get it, but it is too easy to ruin it! They are not qualified to engage in internal struggles now! The right way is to concentrate and accumulate strength and rush forward.

After packing up their personal belongings, the group left the lounge. The men's 60-meter preliminaries were about to begin, and they needed to go to the sidelines to watch.

Liu Ren led the way, and several coaches followed, Lin Mu and Yuan Guohua walked a little further back and headed towards the sidelines.

"By the way, Old Yuan, what's going on with Professor Lu from Huaqing?" Walking on the road, Lin Mu suddenly remembered the greeting Yu Weili said to him yesterday. A coach and two athletes from Huaqing Sports Department were to temporarily join his team. Lin Mu couldn't help but ask.

Although he had seen these people a few days ago, and the coach and athletes were both impressions of him in his previous life. Before entering the base, he arranged for the athletes to find training together, but he didn't expect that he would apply to come in in the end.

He doesn't believe that people are in order to enjoy the treatment of the national team. At least in his understanding, unless the people in Huaqing formally represent the country in major competitions, they will not usually go to the national team.

The athletes must have the strength of the coaches who can leave their names in his memory. It is not a bad thing to lead such coaches and athletes. But now he does not have much emphasis on talent, not to mention that he is a little confused about their true intentions.

"Actually, it's very simple. Professor Lu is a relatively new and open-minded... a scholar-type coach. He worked as a coach in the national team when he was young, and the national team was also where he started. Later, he went to Germany to study and train, but his level should be of a relatively high level in China. Later, after returning to China, he was hired as a professor and coach and started working as a professor and coach..."

Yuan Guohua sorted out and told Lin Mu in detail what he knew. He knew Lu Qing 20 years ago. At that time, Lu Qing had just finished his studies and entered the coaching industry, but he still had an impression of him. He was a relatively down-to-earth academic school, who was not as noble as an ordinary scholar, at least on the surface.

"A few days ago, when they came to the base for training and got together with our athletes, I also deliberately learned about it. The core of some of their training now is the core strength special project you proposed. Although athletes' effectiveness in core training events is not very good, the mode is this mode.

I think, maybe I want to know more or want to get in touch with us nearby to further enrich their training system?! Guidance Yuan probably, based on your attitude, would not refuse others to come to study, so he agreed!

Besides, that athlete named Hu Ke has always been the target of national team observation. If there weren’t Zhao Lin, Shen Huan and others last year, they might have entered the substantive stage of the national team’s procedural inspection. They have talent, and it’s not a bad thing to come in now!”

Lin Mu nodded without comment. He did not refuse anyone to come to study, just be sincere. As for talent, in his memory, Hu Ke did enter the national team and participated in the Olympics.

But it was still the same thing as before. He now looks at talent, but he doesn't value it too much. He even intends to abandon all the impressions in his memory in his previous life. This is a similar space, but he is not the same Lin Mu. He does not want his current judgment to be influenced by his inherent impression in his previous life.

"Old Yuan, thank you! You have worked hard during this period. But I have made up for a lot of vacancies for me!" Without thinking about the few people coming in, Lin Mu expressed his gratitude to Yuan Guohua formally.

"Haha, Coach Lin, don't say that, this is my job. If you want to say it's hard, no one in the team has the hard work of you!"

"Thank you? Maybe it's a bit hard, but the current situation is not the time to be comfortable. This year's Olympics, then the World Championships, and then the Olympics in front of our own doorsteps. It seems that it's quite a long time, but in fact there is no time left, you have to rush forward step by step.

Foreigners always make the conclusions of this law. Although we don’t take it seriously, we actually understand that some gaps are real. It is not easy to catch up with the gap or even catch up with it!”

Listening to Lin Mu's words, Yuan Guohua nodded seriously. How could he not understand? It was because of this kind of understanding that generations of people were gradually eroded.

"Guide Lin, are you too... too indulging in Xiao Yang!" Thinking of these urgent things, Yuan Guohua couldn't help but think of Lin Mu's training arrangements for Yang Zuyao. In his opinion, it was just indulgence.

Of course, Yang Zuyao is not the kind of arrogant person, nor is he having any conflicts with his coach with his attitude as a world champion, but it is a fact that he can't keep up with the training progress, and Lin Mu just accompanied him. He doesn't believe that if Lin Mu enforces the command now, any athlete would dare not to comply.

"Haha, Lao Yuan, you used to be the top athlete in the country. What was your situation at that time during your last time as an athlete? How did you get along with your coach?"

After walking a few steps silently, Liu Ren in front of him was almost walking and looking for a place. He turned around and waved to him. Lin Mu stopped at this time. After standing still, he did not answer Yuan Guohua's question. Instead, he asked about Yuan Guohua's past.

"Once upon a time!" Yuan Guohua thought about it. It was a long time ago, and there might be a lot of regrets. He didn't even think about it very much. Now when Lin Mu mentioned it, he couldn't help but think about it.

"What do you mean?" Yuan Guohua seemed to understand a little.

"Any sport, as you just said, someone holds the flag, someone sets off. Those who hold the flag must be the top athletes and teams. Of course, the results are very important, and without results is definitely empty talk.

But an excellent standard bearer only has very good grades. Then when his excellence is no longer excellent, he may be silent. With his silence, the entire project may be somewhat affected. You are an old sportsman, and you should have seen many such examples..."

Yuan Guohua nodded. Many national projects have this situation. When each event has a top athlete, it is necessary to create an atmosphere. But as Lin Mu said, when the performance is not good, it may become quiet. It is just that a few projects have truly entered prosperity.

"Then... what you mean is to deliberately train Xiao Yang to be the flag bearer, but this is the same as you now..." The problem seems to have turned back to the starting point, and it has become Lin Mu's problem of treating Yang Zuyao. Since he intends to train a flag bearer, he must have excellent grades. How can he be excellent in training poorly?

"In my opinion, our track and field team may be the best-performing group at present, with only three or four people. Sun Yingjie, who is a middle- and long-distance running event, is one. However, after all, the middle- and long-distance running event is brilliant. No matter how exciting it is, the effect it can produce is not very great... Zhao Lin is one, his results are enough, but this kid, his athletic career is probably not out of my shadow..."

Yuan Guohua looked at Lin Mu and shook his head. He also smiled. To be honest, how many athletes can get out of your shadow? To be honest, he actually admires Zhao Lin's personality very much. It's very real and pure.

"In my opinion, a good flag bearer must have excellent results and excellent qualities, and must be able to convey a spirit to all those who have cast their eyes on because of his rise. This spirit must be completely deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Only in this way can the value of his flag bearer be truly realized. Even if the short-term project is silent in the future, as long as this spirit is still there, people will not forget it because of silence, and later people will inevitably hold the banner again...

Liu Xiang, led by Lao Sun, was originally optimistic, but he was talented in success and talented in failure, but he was a little worse after all. If there was no good change in the future, the higher the grades, the faster he might die. Of course, I cannot judge what the future will be. This is just my own opinion..."

"Let's go over!" Lin Mu shook his head, and did not talk about Liu Xiang's topic, and slowly walked towards the sidelines.

Yuan Guohua followed Lin Mu's footsteps, thinking about Lin Mu's words just now. Such a definition of a flag bearer seems to be able to match many, and it is indeed more meaningful. But can Yang Zuyao?

"I brought Xiao Yang's technique and even guided him to grind himself, just to make him find those feelings, or that kind of consciousness. If such consciousness is cultivated, in the future, it will gradually take root and sprout through competitions, and it may eventually become a spirit. What kind of spirit is our track and field? Breakthrough, surpass, and never give up!!"

Seeing that Yuan Guohua was still having some questions, Lin Mu couldn't help but say a few more words, "He is not enough in terms of technology alone now. I'm not really trying to help grow! Haha."

"Don't worry, I still know a lot about my athletes. Xiao Yang can follow me!" Lin Mu laughed and said nothing more, and walked towards Liu Ren in a few steps.

Looking at Lin Mu's back, Yuan Guohua stared blankly for several seconds.

"Old Yuan, the game is about to begin!" At this time, Liu Ren's shouts came over.

"Flagbearer!" Yuan Guohua recovered from his senses and smiled, and couldn't help but mutter.

Mr. Gu, he, Old Chen, and Zhou Wei seem to have been the flag bearer intentionally or unintentionally, but he has not reached the level that Lin Mu said, and this is not just about achievements.

Is it appropriate to say that Yang Zuyao? Yuan Guohua is not sure, and no one can explain the future.

But you, Lin Mulin, seem to be more suitable. Who else can be more suitable than you?! Your experience and achievements are already a spirit! It is being passed on to all the people in the team now, and in the future it can be passed on to more people!

It’s really interesting! If you have time, you have to ask Director Yu and Mr. Feng to talk about his insights about Director Lin!
