Born to Run - Chapter 554

“We are going to Berlin this year. We dare not say that we will be able to surpass the performance in 1993, but our players will definitely be able to create better results after the past few years of world-class competitions, especially the tempering of last year’s Olympics… Everyone should see that after entering the millennium, we won two gold medals in 2005. Ye Qin and Liu Yangyu both won the championship. In 2007, Ye Qin created two golds and one silver by one person… …”

The press conference hall of the General Administration of China was full of seats.

On the podium, Feng Shuyong, the head of the Chinese delegation and deputy director of the Field Management Center in 2009, was talking to reporters freely.

Ye Qin sat on the chair below, watching the coaches and guides of all levels speaking above, and occasionally pointing at his own cameras and cameras, with a faint smile on his face.

He is very used to the process of the oath meeting before the delegation every time. Basically every time I participate in a world-class competition, it will be carried out.

On the one hand, this can be used to strengthen the thoughts and confidence of all athletes in the entire team. For athletes, in addition to hard power, they often compete on the field, whether they are strong or not, and whether they have confidence.

On the other hand, you can conduct simple reporter interviews with domestic media, set goals, and let everyone pay more attention.

Looking back on the past achievements and looking forward to the upcoming World Championships in Berlin, this has been the normal state of every delegation’s expedition, and compared to the low-key performance of previous sessions, it is obvious that Tian Guan is going to be high-keyed here at this World Championships. less.

Looking at the reporters who arrived in the press hall today, almost except for the seats of a few representative athletes, the corridors outside the door were filled with people.

This high profile may not have been deliberately created by Tian Guan Center, but Ye Qin knows that this is the current domestic trend. Beginning in 2004, to 2009 this year, five years have passed.

After years of silence, Chinese track and field once again had outstanding performance in world-class stadiums. In addition, the popularity of domestic sprint projects in recent years is even more exaggerated.

Ye Qin and Liu Yangyu are both undoubtedly top sports stars in domestic track and field events. It can be said that the games played by the two can cause crazy scenes regardless of the size of the event.

Especially Ye Qin, his own influence has radiated from China and Asia to most parts of foreign countries, the world’s number one flying man, the first yellow race men’s 100m Olympic World Championship champion, and world record holder. This influence Power, even the Yao who previously entered the NBA will be a bit inferior.

On the stage, Feng Shuyong talked about the World Championships in Stuttgart in 1993. Yeqin later learned about it. It was the best performance of the Chinese track and field delegation in the international arena.

At that time, the Chinese team won the best record of 4 golds, 2 silvers and 2 bronzes by virtue of Ma Jiajun’s outstanding performance, ranking second on the medal list at that time.

In the following years, in Götenberg in 1995, only Huang Zhihong of the Chinese team won a silver medal. In the 1997 World Championships in Athens, the Chinese team had no results; in 1999, in Seville, Liu Hongyu and Wang Yan swept the women’s 20 km race walking championship and runner-up; in 2001 in Edmonton, the Chinese team was unlicensed again, the most The good results are only Dong Yanmei’s fourth in the 5000 meters and Gao Shuying’s fifth in the pole vault; in Paris in 2003, the Chinese team won two bronzes-Liu Xiang won the 110-meter hurdles for men and Sun Yingjie for the women’s 10,000 meters.

It all started in Helsinki in 2005. The Chinese team won gold medals in the men’s 100m and 110m hurdles that year. At the 2007 Osaka World Championships, Ye Qin, Liu Yangyu, Zhou Chunxiu, and Zhang Wenxiu once again created three golds, two silvers and one bronze. They finished fourth, declaring that the Chinese team has experienced a low tide for more than ten years. Finally ushered in a bottoming out.

It realizes that today’s world athletics has clearly divided the areas between them. Except for Yechin for sprints, middle-distance running is still the United States, Ethiopia and Kenya compete in the long distance, and field events are in Europe (Australia). In individual events) the exclusive territory of the players.

This pattern is probably also a pattern gradually formed in different countries and regions according to their own long and short projects. The reason for the Chinese team’s emergence in sprint and sprint events is largely due to the emergence of two top athletes, Liu Yangyu and Ye Qin.

Driven by each other, the Chinese team has gradually emerged some follow-up talents in these two projects.

In this year’s World Championships, the Chinese team also has strong ambitions for the gold medals and medals of the World Championships. However, Liu Yangyu has not yet returned due to injuries. Ye Qin is responsible for picking the lead.

In the two consecutive World Championships and the Olympic Games, Ye Qin’s performance can be said to have surprised all Chinese people. At this time, regardless of the domestic and foreign media, almost all have begun to speculate about Ye Qin’s face in this World Championships. Whether Youssé Bot, Jason Gaby, Jimmy Warner, Sean Merritt and other talented athletes can break the siege and create new brilliance again.

At the end of the press conference, Ye Chin, sitting in the back seat, got up on stage. As the representative of the athletes of this World Championship, he made a solemn declaration in the eyes of many media reporters and athletes.

There are 37 players participating in the China National Team. After all, there are few domestic athletes who can meet the AB standard items of the World Championships. Among them, the women’s marathon, which has a relatively large number of qualified competitions, has three runners participating, and the other events are basically one or two runners. In the men’s sprint event, Ye Qin and Zhang Peimeng both qualified for the men’s 100-meter and 200-meter World Championships. Another is Su Bingtian, Lu Wei and Gu Kai as the men’s 4×100-meter relay. Participate together.

In the 2007 Osaka World Championships and the 2008 Olympic Games, the Chinese men’s 4×100m relay team performed very well. This time it is also a project that many people expect. Not to mention the gold medal, but it is everyone who wins a medal. Set a good goal in your mind.

Almost as soon as the press conference was over, Yechin was surrounded by many reporters around him. Questions about whether he could win three gold medals at the Berlin World Championships were raised one after another, as well as about Yechin and Youssef-Bot. There are so many questions about the duel.

After Ye Qin simply answered some of the questions, with the help of the staff nearby, he finally got rid of the chase of the reporters.

Back in the background, Yeqin was originally going to leave directly from the headquarter and continue training with other relay team members.

In addition to relay events in his recent domestic training, part of his energy has been focused on speed and endurance.

Before participating in the IAAF Golden League in Europe, he participated in the men’s 100-meter event. Both the 200-meter and 400-meter events have participated less this year.

The first goal of the World Championships must be the men’s 100 meters gold medal, but the men’s 200 meters and men’s 400 meters must not be lost.

Of these two projects, the 200m was Yeqin’s first project, and the 400m was Yeqin’s earliest training. He has a deep plot for this project.

But just after Ye Qin was about to walk out of the General Training Bureau, he was held back by Feng Shuyong, who had finished the reporter’s interview. “Ye Qin, come to the conference room. I have something to tell you.”

“Director Feng, what’s the matter?”

Following Feng Shuyong into a conference room of the General Administration, Ye Qin saw several coaches including Yuan Guohua, Li Qi and Sun Chaosheng sitting in the conference room.

“The first thing is the Jamaican sprint team.”

After Yeqin took his seat, Feng Shuyong slowly said, “On July 24, the authoritative Jamaican media, the Jamaica Observer, it was revealed that five athletes selected for the Jamaica World Championship lineup were suspected of being positive for doping A bottle samples. Further investigation.”

“Five players selected for the World Championships lineup?” Ye Chin’s spirit was shaken instantly, and he blurted out, “Yose Bot included? And Asafaville?”

As Yechin is currently competing for the strongest opponent in the men’s 100m and 200m events at the current World Championships, it can be said that Yechin is extremely cautious and nervous about his news.

“Youssé Bot and Asafaville are fine for the time being.” Feng Shuyong shook his head and continued, “He also won the men’s 100m and men’s 4x100m relay in the London Super Grand Prix on the 25th. The champion, but this time the matter is still relatively big, I need to let you know about it.”

Hearing that Yousei Bot and Asafaville should not have been involved in this matter, Yeqin’s nervous mood relaxed silently.

He himself doesn’t know how complicated it is. It stands to reason that if they get involved in this matter, it will be quite beneficial for him in this World Championship. But Yeqin’s more thoughts still hope that this opponent and friend will not miss the game.

Youssef Bot is extremely powerful. Even if Yechin himself is not sure of winning the opponent, it is with such a player that it is worth running on a stage like the World Championships Olympics to break his limit. Run better results.

Feng Shuyong didn’t know Ye Qin’s mood at the moment, but he could probably guess a little bit. He looked at the people in the conference room with different looks, and continued: “Exclusive news from an anonymous person inside the Jamaican Athletics Association quoted by The Jamaica Observer. It was pointed out that samples of the accident were collected at the Jamaica National Championship and World Championship qualifiers last month, and clarified that there were 2 men’s 4400m relay runners, 2 men’s 4100m relay runners, and 1 women’s 4400m relay runners. Among the 46 people who are about to participate in the World Track and Field Championships, there are no top players on the list, and no athletes who have participated in the Beijing Olympics.”

Although this is said, many of the coaches and staff can hear what Feng Shuyong said. On the one hand, this news is to inform everyone about the situation of the Jamaican team, which is the main opponent of the men’s sprint, and the other is not intended to warn everyone. .

Five athletes from the same sports team were recruited at once, which is obviously suspected of group medication. The extraordinary performance of the Jamaican team in the Olympics last year also aroused many people’s suspicions.

Even including Ye Qin, some extreme newspapers have never heard less about this.

After the Yanjing Olympics last year, Yeqin immediately went to Europe to compete, and this year he participated in numerous competitions in Europe. Basically, there are samples left for each competition. In addition to various other reasons, the underlying deep meaning is also there.

The world champion needs to be questioned by everyone. If you only have an outstanding performance on your own one-acre three-point land, it will often be difficult for others to convince them.

Then Yeqin learned about five players from Feng Shuyong, one of whom was Jamaican hope star Youhan Blake, who had previously had two games with Yeqin in the Golden League.

This 19-year-old athlete’s performance this year can be said to be dazzling. It is considered by many to be Jamaica’s third talented person after Asafaville and Youssé Bot, and is following the trajectory of the two predecessors. go.

Ye Qin remembers the opponent’s performance. In both games, Youhan Blake ran into the 10-second mark. In terms of age, this performance is indeed a superb performance. It is even conceivable that in the near future, Jamaica will have another player who can compete with him in the sprint event.

“Ye Qin, what do you think of this matter now?”

There was a discussion in the conference room, and Chen Zhongzhou next to him looked at Ye Qin’s emotions, and he asked him in a low voice.

“Reverse a bit!” Ye Qin sighed softly, feeling helpless about this.

He is a sprinter, especially when he has reached his position today, some things are irrelevant or irrelevant, but in fact they are inextricably linked.

When the Barker Lab scandal was exposed in 2005, it was a devastating blow to track and field, especially sprinting. At one time, many track and field enthusiasts thought that the sprint project was meaningless. What is faster, faster, and stronger is just a drug testing ground in various national scientific research projects.

When eight athletes stand on the field, basically everyone sees the moment, not guessing who can win the championship, but who is taking illegal drugs. What’s the point of such a competition?

In the years since then, the IAAF has been working to restore the impact.

Among them, Yeqin, Jason Gaby, and Yousse Bot etc. have emerged as the times require the continuous expansion of their influence in the international arena. All of them have the work done by the IAAF in this regard, in order to make people believe again. this project.

This time five Jamaican athletes were exposed. Fortunately, there are no Yosé Bot and Asafaville, otherwise the reputation for track and field sprinting is simply devastating.

This is also the reason why Feng Shuyong specially brought Yeqin over to talk about this topic. No one can ignore the representative meaning of Yeqin.

Ye Qin’s various medical examinations are only a lot more than in previous years. Although Ye Qin occasionally felt troubled in his heart, he still accepted it steadily.

“This matter is here first!”

After watching everyone discuss it for a while, Feng Shuyong finally brought the topic back, looking at Ye Qin, with a faint smile on his face, “There’s another thing~www.mtlnovel.com~ I will also tell you. “

“Isn’t this bad news?” Ye Qin said softly while looking at Feng Shuyong’s smile.

“It’s not a bad thing, but a great thing.” Feng Shuyong smiled even more and slowly said, “Yanjing will officially bid for the 2015 World Championships, and the Athletics Association has begun to fully support you! You are our number one business card. , You have to know about this!”

“Really?” Ye Qin became excited when he heard the news.

“Of course it’s true!” Feng Shuyong nodded, and the others in the meeting room also showed a sense of pride.

“That’s great, Director Feng, is there anything I can do?” Ye Qin asked with a smile.

Although the Yanjing Olympics ended last year, and the 2015 World Championships are still far away, Yeqin still feels very excited to be able to host the World Championships.

“Then there is nothing you need to do.” Feng Shuyong smiled and shook his head. “Your goal now is to get ready for the World Championships in Berlin. I can’t help telling you about this. Well, I hope I can apply. !”

“It’s definitely possible!”

Ye Qin nodded, but he was full of confidence that Yanjing could bid for the success of the World Championships. Last year’s Olympics were seen by the whole world. All work was the best in history. Coupled with his current influence, Ye Qin believed in the World Championships. The IAAF’s approval is very high.

And being able to successfully bid to host the World Championships in his own country, Ye Qin thinks this is very meaningful for Chinese track and field. He counts the time. At that time, he is probably entering the later stage of his career. If possible, he I hope to participate in a World Championship in the capital of the motherland.
