Athens Olympic Complex

It's 20:40 pm.

With the final group of the women's 200-meter second round, the Chinese delegation, who were on the sidelines, suddenly rose.

Today is not a day off, and the attendance rate of the Olympic Stadium is not as full as the previous two days. And because of this, it provides great convenience to many spectators who are interested in coming to the scene.

For example, the stands that were completely bathed in red. The lineup was larger than the previous few days, and the slogans that kept whistling there were more neat and louder.

At this moment, the people here were also in a state of emotion. They were full of energy and cheering higher and higher. They waved the national flag, spoke the most complex language in the world, and shouted in the most passionate slogans.

"Come on Huaxia!"

"Long live China!"

"Come on Huaxia! Long live Huaxia!"

In front of the TV, countless people watching TV at this moment were instantly aroused their enthusiasm by Yang Jian and Han Qiao's voice in the scene, and at the same time, they also shocked their hearts.

They felt a hot warm current flowing out from their hearts, filling their whole body, stimulating their nerves. They had the urge to roar with them.

This is the voice of the Chinese, this is a shout to the whole world!

"Ladies and gentlemen, what is about to start is the award ceremony for the men's 100-meter competition. Now athletes are invited to appear..."

The podium in the venue has been set up. Amid the exciting background music, the host on site announced the next process with enthusiasm.

"...My spectators, the award ceremony for the men's 100-meter competition begins soon. Now the three athletes have entered the arena under the leadership of the etiquette lady... Chinese athletes..."

“Oh~”

"oh!"

...

The award ceremony, which only a few minutes later ended with the attention of tens of thousands of people around the world!

On the sidelines, the Chinese delegation and his party had not completely dissipated.

As they watched the five-star red flag rise high onto the flagpole and flutter in the wind over the stadium, the strong sense of pride and honor made them tremble.

"Huh... It's really good, it's a pity..."

Still looking at the sky above the stadium, Feng Yong sighed a little.

It was already very late when the game ended last night, but no one in the entire track and field team did not pay attention to it. As soon as the result came out, the news spread instantly.

As one of the team leaders of the delegation, he has a lot of work to deal with. Including Luo Yi and him, he has never really watched a game since the start of the track and field. But can they not care?

Today, after he hurriedly arranged some trivial matters, he rushed to the stadium, and he wanted to witness every moment of history with his own eyes.

China has taken another step forward in the gold medal at the World Championships and silver medal at the Olympics. He not only has honor, but also has more expectations for the future.

However, he was still a little regretful. When he thought of this, Feng Yong, who had originally been moved, couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Maybe it was because I was so arrogant that I was a little pretentious. I thought about the semi-finals before, and even if I fought in the finals, I would be perfect. Now I have won the silver medal and set a new Asian record, but I feel sorry!

It was also Kobayashi who gave him too much expectations, and people's hearts are really lifted up little by little!

"Leader, don't leave. I can't stand even if I say it!"

Yu Weili reluctantly withdrew his gaze. When he heard Feng Yong's words of excitement and regret, he couldn't help but complain. He almost rolled his eyes. Combined with a bald and entangled expression, he felt bitter.

"We are watching our sprints step by step. The unexpected outbreak of the World Championships cannot be a common example... In the Olympics, this is the competition of the truly top players...

If it were the past, as long as someone could hear the second and third shots, we would dare to set off firecrackers to celebrate, regardless of whether he was prohibited from setting off. Now he is in the finals and wins the silver medal. What else is there to be dissatisfied with..."

"Haha, okay, stop! Lao Yu, let's talk in private, don't be serious, who told their group to raise my desires higher and higher!"

"It's indeed raised, but it's getting harder and harder. Boss, don't put pressure on them. Besides, our future..."

Yu Weili agreed with Feng Yong's words, even if he was a little regretful. In this final, Zhao Lin and the championship were actually not much worse.

But he also understood that Zhao Lin had already shown his best state and strength. He did not perform relatively poorly because of various factors. But even so, he still beat Zhao Lin. The gap between the two is quite large.

But isn’t this just the beginning? The athletes are still young and have just gotten on the right track. As long as there is no accident, there will be enough expectations for the future.

"You, Lao Yu, I am the head coach. They are all my soldiers. How can I not know..." Feng Yong said angrily, Yu Weili's intention to protect his son was getting higher and higher.

"Okay, I'll tell you some good news and also an interesting discussion by the way!"

Yu Weili said just because he was accustomed to worry. In fact, he knew how Feng Yong, the head coach, could not protect the track and field team. What's more, he was from the team of Kobayashi and others.

To be realistic, what happened to them in the Olympic delegation in previous years? What happened to him and Feng Yong in the delegation now?! It's obvious.

"At noon today, I got a fax in China and sent a letter of congratulations to our track and field team separately. Haha, I think it's very beautiful when I think about it. I heard that the news on the broadcast has been on twice. How about it, Lao Yu, is it exciting?!"

"Haha, boss, didn't bring it back to the team to read it?" Yu Weili was very happy to hear the news. Although the athletes really made the debut in all this, the coaches who made efforts and gained something, and they were naturally satisfied.

"I was thinking about it, but Director Li said that he would come here in person when he had time and also take a look at our track and field team."

"It seems that Director Li is concerned. Director Wu has mentioned it a lot before..." Yu Weili knew in his heart that the people involved have truly entered the vision of a higher level of people this time, which is a good thing!

"I was in the morning. You just talked about Director Wu. Another discussion was mentioned by Director Wu. The temporary director Laro from the General Administration communicated with us project leaders..."

"What to discuss? Something seems pretty small?"

"If you want to say that the actual impact is indeed, if everything goes well, the General Administration plans to start the year-end finals of each project in the second half of this year."

Feng Yong didn't lose his appetite and made any suspense, so he explained himself with a smile;

"The General Administration considers the official national sports meetings in each individual championship. Athletes entering the top eight will register a supervisory coach for filing. At the award ceremony, their supervisory coach will also take the podium to receive the award..."

"This..." Yu Weili was a little surprised, his mind quickly turned around, and he came up with many meaningful benefits in an instant.

When he thought of the possible scenes, even his coach, who is no longer dedicated to the people, was a little uneasy.

"Haha, isn't it very interesting?"

"It's not just interesting, but more meaningful. The boss, the national competition, has many top three every year, but there are too many grassroots coaches who do things silently and still suffer even if the athletes make a name for themselves...

Not to mention the grassroots, Liu Xiang, the Universiade champion, Asian champion, record holder, second in the World Championships, many people know him now, but who is Sun Ping? Not many people really know him.

Even Kobayashi, if he didn't have several titles and was still in the Olympics 400 meters, he wouldn't have been exposed to know about it specifically. How can I say this?! Athletes need affirmation, and coaches sometimes need affirmation..."

"Ha, Lao Yu, it seems that you feel it too. It's really a bit wrong. It's a bit indifferent, just like Xiaolin and Lao Sun. They don't fight and continue to work hard, but if they are a little weaker, the blow to enthusiasm is indeed...

Director Wu said that he had these ideas when he saw the athletes and Kobayashi's situation. But the ideas were indeed very real, and I really didn't see them before..."

"Um~" Yu Weili nodded thoughtfully.

"Boss, it seems that we have thought about speeding up the progress a little bit..."

"Well, let's wait until Kobayashi's game comes down, we will talk to him, and he still needs his cooperation. His personality! Yesterday CCTV reported the information to the delegation and said that it was really on the show, it was too low-key..."

Feng Yong shook his head helplessly. No one likes subordinates who don’t cause trouble and can work without showing off, but to this extent, they will have a headache.

"The competition is about to begin, let's take a look at his game first. Even if you don't want to make a name for yourself, you can't help yourself!"

While the two were talking, a huge sound suddenly sounded in the stadium. Yu Weili looked at the stadium and the women's 800-meter final was over. According to the schedule, Lin Mu's game is about to come!

"Then let's watch the competition first. They ran so many games at the beginning of the Olympics, and they watched it on the spot for the first time. Yesterday, I had already decided to come over at the 100-meter meter, but Director Luo asked me to go over to the delegation... Now, I want to take a good look. I wonder how Kobayashi is preparing for this final?"

...

Check-in area

Lin Mu, who was thinking about others, had completed the final name at this time. Under the leadership of the staff, he and seven other athletes who participated in the 400-meter final were lined up in a column and walked into the stadium.

As the competition is approaching, athletes usually hold their energy in their hearts, but in fact they are also carrying pressure on their bodies. Many times, these energy and pressure are given by the outside world, and of course, they are also added by the athletes themselves.

These pressures sometimes become the weight to crush athletes, and sometimes they also become the driving force to break through themselves.

Just like Lin Mu at this moment, as he walked through the corridor and got closer to the stadium, his emotions gradually rose.

After yesterday's game, he was basically satisfied with his results, honors and rankings. As for the moment when the gold medal or silver medal was not reached, he really didn't value it. He couldn't change the real core, without enough core background, one or two medals wouldn't represent anything!

He has always had this mentality, but it doesn't mean that there is no reason, and he never puts pressure on athletes based on his ranking.

But after the award ceremony just now, he felt a little strange. He felt that he seemed to be a little confused!

In the recording area, the sound of the American national anthem that can still be heard, facing the three rising national flags seen on the synchronous screen...

At that moment, looking at the five-star red flag under the Stars and Stripes, the entangled expression of both happy and sad on Zhao Lin's face in the picture was touched.

To win glory for the country and develop track and field career is really more than just a slogan!

It shouldn’t be just a process of looking at data and accumulating data. It also requires a lot of progress and motivation in the process!

It takes a lot of energy to create, and it also requires everyone, athletes, and coaches to move forward step by step, and even more, it requires a ruthless spirit to achieve it with a desperate effort.

Yes, fight desperately!

The athletes have always worked hard, and he has always been pleased with this. His encyclopedia has gained so much help now, and has always been thanks to this. Of course, this is indispensable for the concepts he has been adjusting and instilling in athletes. China needs this spirit, and he has always asked athletes to leave all constraints and fight.

The athletes are working hard, but what about him, who is also an athlete on the list?

Just in the last few minutes, he was a little self-reflective. He felt that he had bound himself in a certain framework after all!

In order to achieve the training purpose, he led people to fight to the death. In order to win the final victory at the World Championships, he encouraged people to fight to the death. After changing their skills, they were all fighting to further speed up the running-in.

He felt that he was in the identity of a coach and was hard enough to fight alone, and he could force his leader to take his leave. It is conceivable that he could not help.

But as an athlete, he felt a little sorry for this identity.
