Sprint champion: start standing on the Olympic field

Chapter 14 Boom
"In the early morning of August 8, BJ time, the athletes of the Chinese Olympic delegation and the participating staff took a flight back to BJ, and they were warmly welcomed by the masses as soon as the special plane landed.

The Olympic delegation was greeted at the Capital Airport. Officials from all walks of life held flowers and waved the national flag, expressing their sincere gratitude to these athletes who have won glory for the motherland.

Some athletes interacted cordially with the pupils of Beijing No. [-] Primary School present, received bouquets from them, and took pictures with them cordially.

After returning home, athletes will start to take a vacation to rest, but I believe that for them, the welcome ceremony has just begun. "

This is one of the reports on the return of the Chinese Olympic delegation from several major portal websites. Even so, there are countless follow-up posts, most of which are words of people expressing excitement.

Generally, there are different voices on any topic on the Internet, but only the topic about athletes who have won honor for the country is all about honor and excitement, without any noise.

This is a group of people who have been training for several years and more than ten years for the sake of the country, and finally won the honor. Who would blackmail them.

This is just the tip of the iceberg on the Internet. The major forums and communities are so lively. Even the grandpas and aunts who love to hang out in the streets and alleys can now say the names of a few athletes. Among them, the names of Liu Yuxiang and Su Feng are the most mentioned. of.

In fact, it is easy to understand when you think about it. After all, whether it is a sprint or a short span, this is a sport that breaks the limits of the human body. Not only in China, but also in foreign countries. The significance of sprinting to mankind can be seen from the wave of track and field caused by various countries in the world.

You know, when Bolt was at his peak, he won the Lawrence Award four times.

This is one of the pinnacle awards in the world of sports, as you can see by looking at the previous winners of the Lawrence Award.

Tiger Woods, Schumacher, Federer, Nadal, Djokovic, Hamilton, all are god-level athletes who have broken through their own circles and are extremely influential in the world.

And Bolt was able to win the Lawrence Award four times, and the significance of sprint to human beings can also be seen from it.

In today's China, talking about track and field has become a daily routine for people, and this craze is much crazier than when Liu Yuxiang won the championship with a world record.

Yes, crazy indeed.

Whether it's on the Internet or on the streets, if you don't say a few words about Liu Yuxiang and Su Feng to others, you will be ashamed to speak up.

As for the reason, the two are still different.

Liu Yuxiang won the gold medal and broke the world record.

Su Feng raised the 10-meter limit of the yellow race from 00 seconds to less than 10 seconds, and reached an astonishing 9 seconds. So although it is only a bronze medal, its influence is not weaker than that of Liu Fei. The two can say It was the wind that fueled the fire, and the fire taking advantage of the wind, coupled with the sense of pride that the 87 Beijing Olympic Games brought to people, directly pushed this upsurge to an extreme that even Su Feng in his previous life could not have imagined.

You know, Su Feng's home is in the capital, and he has a particularly strong feeling about it.

Now he doesn't even dare to go home, so he can only hide in the athlete's apartment with his laptop as a companion. Even so, when he opens the major websites, the homepage is full of images of him and Liu Yuxiang crossing the finish line.

In a sense, it can be described as "extremely tragic".

"Hey, mom, my aunts and the others haven't left yet? What, my aunt is here too. Well, I see. I'll go back in two days."

"Hey, coach, what, Yang Ma's interview, what program? Sports life? Can you turn it down?"

"Hey!" Su Feng sighed after hanging up the phone.

too crazy!

It was okay when I arrived in the capital on the first day, two of the leaders came, so there was naturally no problem with the environment.

But after that, trouble came.

The next day, he, Liu Yuxiang and their coaches appeared on several news programs and interviews, allowing them to talk to the coach about the process of growing up and hardships.

It's nothing, the key is that there are people watching the whole process.

In the CCTV studio, it was surrounded by the staff, and then autographs were indispensable, even the host and the director did not let them go, especially the director, who was over 60 years old and was about to retire, said that he had managed to Chasing stars, witnessing the development of the country, etc., it was so touching, and in the end, I and Liu Yuxiang felt that if I didn't sign this name, I would be a sinner.

The next day, September 9, when he met with Olympic athletes and coaches, Su Feng received the care and encouragement from the head of the team, and encouraged him to make persistent efforts.

On the third day, the summary and commendation meeting of the General Administration of Sports and the distribution of bonuses.Because Su Feng won the Olympic men's 100-meter bronze medal, and broke the Chinese and Asian records, reaching a score of ten, he was directly rewarded with 50 yuan, which was even more than the rewards for other Olympic champions.

In these four days, except when he was with the leader, for the rest of the time, Su Feng was surrounded by crowds.

Today is the fifth day, and everything is finally over, but Su Feng still can't go home.

Ever since Su Feng broke ten and won the Olympic bronze medal, relatives in the family have sent condolence calls. After Liu Yuxiang won the championship, the fire of track and field in China was completely ignited.

According to my mother, more people come to the house in one day than in previous years.

Even the neighbors who have lived in the family for decades have come to express condolences, and even brought their little grandson, saying that they want to see the place where Brother Su grew up and learn from him.

Moreover, she didn't dare to go out to buy groceries at will. They were all acquaintances, and she could be recognized immediately. She had already experienced being watched once.

The places where my parents work don’t stop. They are both public employees, and both of them are grassroots workers. In the company, they also rely on their qualifications to increase their grades and wages step by step. They have no real power and a low sense of presence. people.

But since Su Feng won the award, the two have become popular in their respective units. Not only have they received condolences, but they have also booked advanced individuals for this year.

In short, after all kinds of analysis, Su Feng came to the final conclusion that it is not suitable to go home now.

"Hey, it should be better after the limelight has passed in two days." Su Feng looked at his own news on the webpage and said.

But then shook his head.

Others don't know, but he can be regarded as a prophet to some extent.

In his previous life, Liu Feiren, after becoming famous in the Olympics, was surrounded by spectators wherever he went, and was often blocked at the airport.

I have a system in my body, and as my grades get better and better, especially after I start to compete with Bolt one day, I am afraid that the whole world will know me by then, let alone in China. In the next few years when I am at my peak, I'm afraid life will not be too easy.

"If Bolt and the rest of the track and field four tigers belonged to the stars and the moon, my physical limit is the same as Bolt. At that time, at least in the sprint, I am afraid that the sun and the moon will shine together. Whether it is in the world or in China, the fame of Bolt and I can only be greater than that of our previous life, not less."

Su Feng shook his head secretly, it wasn't Versailles, but he really didn't want to be disturbed by such a group of people.

Thinking about the future situation, people all over the world followed and chased the limit of [-] meters with them, Su Feng felt a headache.

On the fifth day and the sixth day, Su Feng rested for two days. In addition to completing the basic recovery-oriented training, Su Feng had a relatively easy life in these two days.

On the seventh day after returning to China, Su Feng was invited by the Beijing city government to participate in a local commendation meeting in the capital, and finally accepted a cash reward of 100 million, which also included a three-bedroom apartment on the fourth ring road sponsored by entrepreneurs. The area is more than 120 square meters!
