Dream Live System

Chapter 281 Fan support group

As soon as they walked out of the airport, Chu Feng and his party ran into the British pick-up team.

To Chu Feng's surprise, the leader, a middle-aged man with a beard and a peaked cap, turned out to be his old acquaintance Hu Cheng.

But thinking about it, it's not surprising. Hu Cheng himself is the coach of the national track and field team, and it's normal for him to come to England to participate in the competition with the national team.

What surprised Chu Feng even more was that a tall man in his 30s who looked to be in his 1.8s and was about [-] meters tall standing with Hu Cheng had a very familiar face.

Isn't this the flying man Liu Xiang?
More than ten years ago, Liu Xiang was the pride of the Chinese people. At the 2004 Athens Olympics, Liu Xiang was in the limelight after breaking the world record in the 110-meter hurdles with a time of 12.88 seconds.

It is also the first and only athlete in Chinese history to break the track and field world record.

It can be said that it was popular all over the country at that time.It is indeed the pride of the people of the country.

But the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.

In the 08 Yanjing Olympic Games, Liu Xiang did not achieve ideal results, which also caused him to be bombarded by netizens at that time.

After 08, his performance became less and less ideal, and he retired later.

Later, he experienced divorce and other incidents, and the reviews on the Internet became worse and worse for him.

However, in the minds of many people, Liu Xiang is still the pride of the Chinese people.At least he had achieved brilliant results.

An athlete's career is generally not short-lived.

Especially sprinters have extremely high requirements for physical bursts.

After the heyday, it is impossible to surpass the past.

Later, the 12.87-meter world record was set by Cuban star Roberts, who broke Liu Xiang's record with a speed of 0.01, which was only [-] seconds faster.

So far, this is still the fastest 110 hurdles record in the world.

After the world record was surpassed, Liu Xiang's reputation went from bad to worse, because most people will only remember who No. 1 is and the highest world record holder.

This represents the pinnacle of a world. Once the pinnacle is broken, people will only respect the new pinnacle.Instead of remembering how brilliant you were once.

The world is hot and cold, that's it!

Of course, no matter how you say it, Chu Feng still maintains a certain amount of respect for athletes who have created brilliance.

"Brother Chu, you are finally here!"

"Old Hu, you're really not authentic, I didn't expect you to be the one picking up the plane!"

"I came here specially to pick you up. President Shu is also afraid that you may not be used to the unfamiliar place. No, Jiu sent me, an old acquaintance, over here. The person next to me... don't need me too much." Let me introduce him, he is the head coach of the national team's sprint!"

"No need! Liu Feiren's name is like a thunderbolt. He used to be my idol. If you don't tell me, you'd think Liu Feiren is going to come out again! Hello, I'm Chu Feng!" Chu Feng smiled and held out his right hand.

"Don't make fun of me, Liu Feiren. I'm old. If you really want me to participate in the competition, you might lose face to the people of the country again. This time I attended as a pre-competition coach. What do you do?" After flying for such a long time, I should be tired, so let’s go back to the hotel and rest first!” Liu Xiang smiled and shook hands with Chu Feng politely.

The group quickly took a special car and came to the athletes' reception residence specially arranged by the British government.

Because of the World Athletics Championships, Birmingham, an already bustling city, has become more lively recently.

The streets are full of whites, blacks, and yellows, and some of them even have their country's iconic national emblem on them.

Athlete teams from nearly 150 countries around the world have come to Birmingham. Not only that, but also audiences from many countries who like to watch the scene come to Birmingham.

And this time, there were not a few spectators who came from Huaxia.

Some Chinese people still have bandages on their foreheads. The words on these bandages are not "Come on Team China!" "Team China must win!" "Team China is invincible!" and so on.Most Chinese tourists actually have the words "Chu Shen Legion!", "Chu Shen Niubi" and "Chu Shen Invincible" written on their foreheads.

These people are obviously fans of Chu Feng.

And they are in groups of three or four, one after another.Obviously organized!
On the way Chu Feng drove to the athletes' pick-up place, he saw many such people on the road.

He didn't expect that there would really be so many fans who came to Birmingham to watch him play, and these people formed an organization spontaneously.

There seemed to be more than ten times more people who came to cheer for him than those who cheered for the national team.

Chu Feng was also drunk!

At the same time, he was also a little moved. He was able to go to Birmingham to cheer him on, and he spontaneously formed the "Chu God Legion". This is definitely a true fan!
The "Chu Shen Army" almost formed a beautiful scenery on the streets of Birmingham.

Because such an organized, disciplined, and unified fan support group is hardly seen in fan groups in other countries.

Fan groups in other countries are nothing more than sticking their own country's national emblem on their bodies, and they are not unified by the "Chu God Legion".

People who don't know think that the Chu God Legion is another fan group from Asia that came to participate in the competition!
"Brother Chu, you really have a lot of fans. This time I have really learned a lot. I have met at least 100 fans on this road. I can still see so many fans of you in the UK. I'm convinced! If I didn't know you a little bit, I really thought that you hired these people to support the scene!"

"Old Hu, stop making fun of me! I'm just an internet celebrity!" Chu Feng said innocently, spreading his hands.

"You are probably the only Internet celebrity in the world who can achieve your level. I have never heard of an Internet celebrity with tens of millions of fans."

······
After entering the hotel specially in charge of receiving athletes, Chu Feng met with other athletes of the Huaxia team.

There are about 100 members of the Huaxia team accompanying them this time.

Among them, there are nearly a dozen athletes, and several of them are substitute members.A total of more than a dozen projects participated in the competition.

Men's 100m sprint, 110m hurdles, 4x200m relay, 800m. There are 1500-meter long-distance running, as well as javelin, shot put, high jump, long jump and other projects.

Chu Feng participated in only two events, the men's 100-meter sprint and the men's 110-meter hurdles.The arrival of Chu Feng was not very welcomed by the other athletes, and even a little bit repulsive.

First, he was not born as a regular athlete.

Second, because of his appearance, the other two athletes became substitutes, so they would naturally reject him.
