Director Guan's enthusiasm made Zhang Guan unbearable. Zhang Guan remembered that when he met Director Wang for the first time in the General Manager, the other party looked like a crossbrow, but now Director Wang smiles like a Buddha.
"It's really realistic!" Zhang Guanchang sighed. Not long ago, the Winter Sports Center regarded itself as the biggest trouble, but now, it seems that it has become the savior of the Winter Sports Center. At least in the short track speed skating team, Zhang Guan enjoys the top treatment, Zhang Guan even I felt that I was more big-named than I was in the track and field team. This contrast even made it difficult for Zhang Guan to adapt.
Compared with track and field sports, winter sports are indeed too weak. Winter sports have fewer games and athletes have fewer opportunities to show their faces, so winter sports can only be regarded as a "small temple." Today, a "big buddha" like Zhang Guan comes from the "small temple", which is still able to attract pilgrims to worship. The monks in the temple are naturally carefully enshrined.
At the end of the year and the beginning of the year, both domestically and internationally, the number of sports games is much smaller. Especially in the nba game, due to the absence of Yao's injury, the attention has dropped a lot.
As the footsteps of the Vancouver Winter Olympics approach, the Winter Sports Center has also announced the list of participants in the Winter Olympics. Short track speed skating is the strength of the national team, and it is also a hot spot for winning gold, so it has attracted much attention, so Zhang Guan's name is immediately reflected in people's eyes.
Zhang Guan wants to participate in the Vancouver Winter Olympics!
This news instantly grabbed the headlines of domestic media.
It is nothing new for an athlete to participate in both the Summer Olympics and the Winter Olympics. There have been many "summer and amphibious" athletes in history. In fact, the Summer Olympics are more professional than the Winter Olympics. Athletes who can participate in the Summer Olympics are all people with extraordinary physical conditions. If they are engaged in winter events with their physical talents, they are even more within reach.
Because of Zhang Guan's participation, the Vancouver Winter Olympics, which had not received much attention, came into people's attention.
...
The Vancouver Winter Olympics officially began on February 13 local time. A total of 85 countries and regions participated in this Winter Olympics, which is much less than the Summer Olympics, but compared with the last Torino Winter Olympics, there are more participating countries and athletes.
In the world, the Winter Olympics are also getting more and more attention. In the 1980s and 1990s, there were only more than 40 countries participating in the Winter Olympics, and now there are 85 countries participating, which is more than 20. Doubled this year.
In the arrangement of the competition schedule, the Winter Olympics and the Summer Olympics are also different. One item of the Summer Olympics is often carried out continuously. For example, after the start of the table tennis project, there will be table tennis competitions every day. Men’s and women’s singles, men’s and women’s doubles, team matches, etc. will be completed in a few days. However, many events in the Vancouver Winter Olympics are separate. Take short track speed skating as an example. Starting on February 14, the next competition day will wait until February 18 after four days. The middle three days are completely absent. Short track speed skating. The entire short-track speed skating event lasted from February 14 to February 27. It took two weeks. In fact, there were only five competition days, and the rest of the nine days were resting.
February 14 is the first race day of short track speed skating. On this day, the first gold medal of short track speed skating in the Winter Olympics will also be born. That is the men's 1500m event.
...
Men's 1500m group stage, semifinals and finals, of which the group stage will be the first match of the short track speed skating event.
In this project, the national team sent three players to compete. In addition to Zhang Guan, the other two players were Liu Xianwei and Song Weilong.
In the men's short track speed skating event, the national team's strength is not weak, but there is still a gap between the medals. National Du's players can enter the final even if it is a very good result.
In this project, the South Korean team has absolute dominance. For example, in the 1500-meter final, there is usually only Li Ge. The South Korean team has to occupy three, equal to half of them are Koreans. In the 500-meter final, there are only four places in total. The South Korean team also has the ability to take up three, which is equivalent to three South Korean players encircling a player from other countries.
In the first 1500m preliminary round, Zhang Guan advanced easily to the semifinals with the first group, while the other two teammates, Liu Xianwei advanced to the third group, while Song Weilong performed poorly and stopped the first round.
After an hour of rest, the athletes ushered in the 1500m semifinals. Liu Xianwei, who took the lead in the game, took the initiative to lead the skating, but in the end it was still weak, only ranked fifth in the group and missed the final.
Zhang Guan debuted in the third group, in addition to Zhang Guan in this group, there are Canadian player Oliver, American player Apollo and the world's number one South Korean player Li Zhengzhu, this group is also called the death group.
Li Zhengzhu is the brother of South Korea's 1500m short track speed skating, and the world's first in this project, and its strength is extremely strong; Canadian Oliver is the weekly champion of 1500m short track speed skating, and American Apollo is on this project. The most powerful athletes of the American team, all three have the strength to reach the finals, plus a crown, this group is equal to two out of four.
The public opinion before the game generally believed that Li Zhengzhu and Oliver will be promoted with divine power. After all, the strength of the two is there, and Zhang Guan is obviously the biggest unknown factor in this group.
Oliver is a local battle, he is clearly determined to win the finals. However, the final result disappointed the home audience. Oliver fell out of the track in the middle of the game. Zhang Guan and Li Zhengzhu advanced to the final.
The six finalists were all born. The Korean trio Li Zhengzhu, Li Haoxi and Cheng Shibai all won the final places. American Celzersky, Canadian Hamelin and Zhang Guan split the other three final places. .
...
Just over an hour and a half after the debut of Zhang Guan’s short track speed skating of 1500 meters, he has already appeared in the finals. Many audiences who watched the Winter Olympic Games for the first time even felt that this fast-paced schedule could not adapt. .
South Korean short-track speed skating coach Cui Guangfu brought his three players to the front and said, "The United States' Celsky and Canada's Hamelin are not afraid. Both of them scored 2 points and 16 In seconds, I am most worried about Zhang Guan. He has slipped to 2 minutes and 16 seconds in the group stage, and even improved to 2 minutes and 15 seconds in the semifinals. This result can already compete with you. I have Worried, Zhang Guan will become the biggest variable in today's game, and now it seems that my worries have indeed come true."
"Coach, you can rest assured that we will do our best!" Li Zhengzhu, the number one player, said.
"It is not enough to go all out. My goal is to win the first and second runner-ups. This time we did not let An Xianzhu contestants. Whether he himself or the people in the country, there are quite a few words about this decision, so you must After getting the top three and telling our people, even without An Xianzhu, we can still rule the 1500-meter short track speed skating competition!" Cui Guangfu paused, and then said: "When we are racing, follow us Before the established tactics, Li Zhengzhu led the slide, Li Haoxi and Cheng Shibai, the two of you were responsible for blocking the position and preventing the athletes behind from overtaking, so that Li Zhengzhu could run out of his own rhythm! Remember, we are a team and need It’s teamwork!"
...
At the same time, coach Li Bing also called Zhang Guan to the front.
"This time, An Xianzhu did not participate. I heard that he is now in conflict with the South Korean national team. South Korea's main player will be Li Zhengzhu. I guess coach Cui Guangfu will still let Li Zhengzhu lead in the front, while Li Haoxi and Cheng Shibai both Individuals are responsible for covering Li Zhengzhu, blocking other athletes from overtaking, and also disrupting the rhythm of other people. So you must control your rhythm during the game. Once the rhythm is disrupted, physical problems in the second half will occur. If possible, try not to be blocked by Li Haoxi and Cheng Shibai, if possible, go beyond it."
"An Xianzhu is the world record holder of 1500 meters. He should be only 25 or 66 years old, the peak age of a professional player. If he doesn't come, it's a pity." Zhang Guan sighed.
"The contradiction between Anxianzhu and the Korean national team has been made public. I heard that the last time he paid for his injury, the Korean national team did not pay a penny, leaving Anxianzhu at his own expense. And this time can also change the selection of athletes. Standards, got a point system, directly blocked An Xianzhu from the gates of the Winter Olympics." Coach Li Bing sighed and said regretfully: "This talented athlete is just given by the Koreans It’s a pity that it’s gone.

"Abolish it? Not at all. He can change his nationality. Maybe he will participate on behalf of other countries in the next Winter Olympics." Zhang Guan said with a smile.
As the world record holder of 1500m short track speed skating, An Xianzhu was once a hero of the Koreans, but is now in a state of being hidden by the Korean national team. In order to prevent An Hyun-soo from participating, the Korean Ice Federation even played tricks and set the trial time in September. At that time, An Hyun-soo just happened to participate in military training and could only miss the game.
Zhang Guan also knows that the frustrated An Xianzhu eventually fled to Russia, and the Russian president personally signed the presidential decree to give An Xianzhu Russian nationality. At the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics, An Xianzhu, as the absolute main force of the Russian team, won Russia's first short track speed skating gold medal and led Russia to break the short track speed skating relay world record. It can be said that An Xianzhu not only went to Russia, but also brought the concept and training method of Korean short track speed skating to Russia, thus making Russia become the world's top in the short track speed skating project. Strong team.
...
Six players have already stood on the skating line, three South Korean players are wearing dark blue skating suits, Americans are light blue tops, Zhang Guan and Canadian players are all red, at first glance Some are difficult to distinguish.
The referee
prepared
, the six players made a slipping gesture, and now the audience was all quiet, and then the gunshots sounded, and the six people started moving at the same time.
After the first corner, the Canadian player succeeded in grabbing the first position with the support of the home audience, three South Korean players followed closely, Li Zhengzhu was in front, and the other two were behind After a "pin" character, Zhang Guan and the American player were at the end.
The Canadian player leading the front looks like he is in the lead, but in fact the life is not so good. The three South Korean players behind are all stronger than him. The normal rhythm will be oppressed by the Korean players behind.
So after just one lap, the Canadian players gave up their lead position, and the following players took the lead to overtake, and the Canadian player who rushed to the forefront immediately fell to the last position.
"Good job!" Coach Cui Guangfu clenched his fists violently, and the three South Korean players were already in the leading position, which is the same as the coach Cui Guangfu's plan.
Leading Li Guangzhu began to enter his own rhythm, while Li Haoxi and Cheng Shibai began to interfere with the rhythm of other athletes. After only two laps, Li Guangzhu pulled away from the players behind.
"Sure enough, as coach Li Bing expected, Li Guangzhu was in front, Li Haoxi and Cheng Shibai were blocking in the back, and I had to go over as soon as possible." Zhang Guan looked at the front and found that Li Haoxi and Cheng Shibai guarded the line. Very dead, if you want to surpass, you have to be on the outer side.
"On the outside!" Zhang Guan rushed forward.
...
"Zhang Guan, more than two South Korean players, followed Li Guangzhu behind!"
This surpass led to a burst of cheers and applause from the scene. Obviously, the audience hoped to see a splendid game that you were competing for, instead of the three men of the South Korean team leading to the end.
Coach Cui Guangfu dismissed his lips in disdain. The kind of transcendence Zhang Guan used just now must be very physical. In the 1500m race, physical strength is a very important factor, especially in the final 500m, there is only enough Only physical strength can ensure that one does not fall off the chain.
Li Guangzhu also noticed someone chasing behind him.
"The red sportswear, not Canadian, is Zhang Guan! I can't think of him catching up. That's fine, see if you can keep up with my rhythm!" Li Guangzhu involuntarily accelerated.
As the world's first 1500m short track skater, Li Guangzhu's speed is indeed advantageous, especially in the second half, when other physical strength is reduced, he can still maintain a relatively fast speed, this It is also the advantage of the Korean team.
"It's too slow!" Zhang Guan in the back felt that Li Guangzhu's lead-sliding rhythm was still half a beat slower than his fastest.
"Although Li Guangzhu is now the world's first, his speed is still slightly lower than the world record. I still lead myself, and following him will affect my rhythm."
Zhang Guan thought of this and tried to surpass Li Guangzhu.
"Want to surpass me? No way! How could I let you pass." The afterglow of Li Guangzhu's eyes saw Zhang Guan ran to the outside. He knew that Zhang Guan was going to overtake, so he also increased his speed and he wanted to stop Zhang Guan.
"Zhang Guan is going to surpass Li Guangzhu, and Li Guangzhu has also accelerated! The two are almost in the same position!" The cry of the commentator also made another cry at the scene.
But Zhang Guan's surpassing was not successful. The front was a curve. Li Guangzhu was on the inside. He moved a shorter distance. Zhang Guan could not surpass Li Guangzhu at this stage.
At the end of the straight, Zhang Guan's second attempt was to surpass Li Guangzhu, who again defended.
...
On the track, Zhang Guan and Li Guangzhu are still fighting, but this kind of struggle does not affect the speed. Zhang Guan needs faster speed to surpass Li Guangzhu, Li Guangzhu also needs faster speed to defend Zhang Guan, The two gave up no one, which made the two faster and faster.
Coach Cui Guangfu looked at the timer, and there was a slight unnaturalness in his expression.
"Li Guangzhu slipped too fast, which is at least three seconds faster than usual. At such a speed, can his physical strength keep up?"
Coach Cui Guangfu began to worry about Li Guangzhu's physical strength, but he also knew that the reason why Li Guangzhu slipped so fast today was because the behind Zhang Guan was too tight.
The speed of the leader is fast, and the speed of the people behind will be accelerated spontaneously, so whether it is Li Haoxi or Cheng Shibai, their speed will be faster than usual, and this consumes more of their physical strength.
This is like a middle- and long-distance race. The leader of the race is faster. If the person behind is not strong enough to keep up, it will consume more physical strength and may not be able to complete the race.
This is the case today, especially after ten laps, the gap between athletes has gradually widened, and the compact formation at the start has long since disappeared.
"It's true that Li Guangzhu, who was thought to be a "genius player", can still maintain such a fast speed at this time. I have been following him, and I have already begun to be unable to work!" Cheng Shibai behind thought to himself. He slowed down a little bit, adjusted his rhythm, prepared to accumulate physical strength, and prepared for the final sprint.
However, Li Guangzhu at this time was actually riding a tiger.
"It's so tiring, I feel almost slippery! That Zhang Guan, how can it be so tight!" Li Guangzhu clenched his teeth and insisted.
In fact, by this time, Li Guangzhu didn't dare to slow down at all. He had to support his speed. Once his speed slowed down, Zhang Guan would overtake it. At the same time, Li Guangzhu feels that Zhang Guan's physical strength is definitely low, and Zhang Guan is also supporting, so as long as he persists, until the moment Zhang Guan can't hold on, the victory belongs to him.
This belief allowed Li Guangzhu to maintain a high-speed taxi. He felt that the current competition is not only a competition of speed, but also a competition of willpower.
However, Zhang Guan also felt quite surprised.
"I still underestimated this Lee Kwang-soo. His speed is still quite fast. So many laps have kept me in front of me. I won't let it go. South Korea's short track speed skating is worthy of the world's first level! It seems to depend on The last lap and a half sprint came to a victory!"
Thinking of this, Zhang Guan began to adjust his rhythm to prepare for the final sprint.
On lap 10, Li Guangzhu gritted his teeth.
On lap 11, Li Guangzhu still insisted.
On lap 12, the final sprint is about to enter.
"The last sprint, fight!"
After crossing the finish line, Zhang Guan accelerated the frequency of his steps. In the next straight, his speed was obviously faster than Li Guangzhu. When he entered the straight, he quickly pulled away from Li Guangzhu.
Li Guangzhu only felt that the figure in front of him flickered, and at the next moment, he saw that Zhang Guan had slid in front of him.
"Sprint? By the way, it's time for the final sprint!" Li Guangzhu also wanted to sprint, but his body did not listen to the command, and he had no extra physical strength to sprint.
"I can't move anymore!" Li Guangzhu raised his head, and in his sight, the red figure gradually moved away.
...
"Zhang Guan! More than gone!"
On the sidelines of the game, the national team was in the grandstand, and coach Li Bing on the sidelines couldn't stop shouting loudly. At this moment, he didn't know what he was calling. He just simply felt himself Shout it out loud.
The coach Cui Guangfu beside him was also not calm. He looked at the game with his eyes straight, and couldn't believe everything in front of him.
Finally, Zhang Guan crossed the finish line first.
The time is fixed at 2 minutes 08 seconds 021!
Break the record and win the championship!
Another record-breaking title!
Still the familiar Zhang Guan, or the familiar record-breaking champion! (To be continued.)
