Zizhao Chuan: The Biggest Sportsman

Chapter 154 Wings
Guo Zizhao remembered that Feng Shuyong, the head coach of the national track and field team, said this after Liu Feiren retired in his previous life.

The significance of Liu Feiren to Chinese track and field is not that he has won several world championships or broken several world records, but that he has brought back the confidence to challenge the world for China's track and field.

Before Liu Feiren won the Olympic championship, the domestic track and field world at that time was lifeless.Not only has he been suppressed by the Japanese for nearly ten years in the men's sprint event, but also in other events, his international competitiveness has been decreasing year by year.

But from the moment Liu Feiren won the Olympic championship, it not only brought confidence to domestic track and field athletes, but also brought hope to local track and field teams at all levels.Everyone suddenly discovered that we Chinese can also achieve such results in the men's sprint event in the Olympic Games!

Since then, the concern and investment in track and field at all levels has also increased year by year, and the number of athletes and coaches going out for competitions and training has also increased year by year.In this way, after several years of accumulation, Chinese track and field athletes began to gradually explode in the world arena after 2010.

Of course, even so, after the loss of Liu Feiren, the leading figure in Chinese track and field, it is inevitable that it will show its decline.Although the men's sprint event has made a historic breakthrough, even if it occasionally enters the finals of the World Series, it is not a problem.However, due to the limitation of the physical fitness of the race, there has never been a world-class sprinter.The only way to pursue breakthroughs is in hurdles, a track and field event that requires more technology.

……

The current influence that Guo Zizhao has formed in the Chinese track and field circle is also similar to that of Liu Feiren after the Athens Olympics.However, because there is still no strong champion in hand, it has not yet reached the point of national fanaticism at that time.

However, even so, Guo Zizhao's influence on domestic track and field is slowly reflected.After all, judging from Guo Zizhao's current world ranking, he is already considered the world's top sprinter.And the results he achieved are definitely historic breakthroughs.

Moreover, Guo Zizhao has another advantage.That is Guo Zizhao's current domestic fame, which is not the same as that of Liu Feiren before the Athens Olympics in his previous life!
Before the Athens Olympics, apart from people in the track and field field, how many domestic audiences knew about Liu Feiren?It can be seen from the fact that all his domestic endorsements at that time did not exceed 200 million yuan.Not to mention, even the coach of the national team at that time did not give Liu Feiren any hope of winning the championship.

But the current Guo Zizhao is different.

Since Guo Zizhao unexpectedly became popular after the college entrance examination, coupled with the broadcast of several TV commercials such as Huaxia Telecom, Shuchuan Changhong and Jialin Motorcycle, Guo Zizhao has become acquainted in front of the people of the whole country.

However, a series of reports such as the subsequent Asian Championships and World Youth Championships made Guo Zizhao's image full of personality begin to take root in the hearts of the people again.Finally, at the Asian Games, Guo Zizhao made a historic run into the 10-second mark and won China's first men's [-]-meter gold medal in the Asian Games.What's more, the passionate singing at the Spring Festival Gala not long after.

This immediately made Guo Zizhao popular all over the country and became a well-known sports star.

Guo Zizhao's annual income from commercial endorsements alone is already tens of millions. This is the result of Guo Zizhao's selection for a long time, control and control.If you let it go, it is estimated that half a billion is still no problem.

The beginning of this year was even more remarkable.The champions of the International Athletics Grand Prix and the Golden League not only won a lot, but also won medals again in the Indoor Athletics World Championships and Outdoor Athletics World Championships.Let Guo Zizhao firmly sit on the position of "No. [-] brother" in domestic track and field.Now Guo Zizhao's world ranking can be ranked in the top three in the world at the last time.

. . . . . .

The birth of such a world-class track and field athlete, how can we not make the domestic track and field circle excited.Although Guo Zizhao's status as an athlete outside the system is not so popular in the industry, he can also train top track and field athletes within his own system.He Guo Zizhao can do things with such a little resources, there is no reason why we professionals can't do it?
So starting this year, the sports bureaus and professional sports teams from the General Administration to the local levels have greatly increased their investment in track and field.This also allowed the growth rate of outstanding track and field athletes to be greatly advanced.

For example, today's Chen Haijian, Yang Yaozhou and others have entered the ranks of the national team two years earlier.Although it is only being cultivated as a reserve talent now, this is also a great opportunity for them.

For a track and field athlete, around 18 to 20 years old is a critical period for rapid growth in strength.Being able to enter the national team one step earlier will allow them to obtain more training resources and access to more advanced training methods, which will have a crucial impact on their future prospects.With such an opportunity, Guo Zizhao believes that their future performance should not be worse than their previous life.

This can be regarded as the positive impact that the flapping wings of my own butterfly has on China's track and field industry...

……

"What are you thinking about? So engrossed." After chatting with several new team members, Chen Yanhao couldn't help asking Guo Zizhao still looking thoughtful.

"Oh...it's nothing." Guo Zizhao also quickly came to his senses. He looked at the new teammates who were leaving and sighed, "Hey...just when I saw new people joining, I suddenly realized that I am also a person now." He’s a veteran team member.”

"Haha...you," Chen Yanhao also laughed dumbfoundedly, "You are only 20 years old now, so you have the nerve to lament this here! Then I, an old guy, should have retired a long time ago."

"You're not old, you're still in your prime! You're the pinnacle of our track and field team." Guo Zizhao also teased Brother Chen, "By the way, I have something to ask you."

Guo Zizhao also suddenly remembered, "I heard that in the first half of next year there will be a lot of quotas for overseas competitions, Brother Chen, you have to hurry up! This is not the time to show your style!"

"You just came back and you knew about it, right?"

"That is, is there anyone in the team who doesn't know?"

"Haha... I am already a veteran team member. Besides, I have already reached the A standard. I will feel bad about competing with those young people." Chen Yanhao also hesitated.

"Don't!" When Guo Zizhao heard this, he quickly persuaded him, "Why are you so old? Look at Johnson, he is one year older than you now. Isn't it fun to run? And Jackson That old guy, he's 32 this year, and I haven't really beaten him once! Why did you back down?"

"Also, although your current score is A standard, it's hard to say whether you can enter the semi-finals in the Olympics. You don't want to go to the preliminaries again and you're done! I'm still waiting to meet you The final!" Guo Zizhao saw that Chen Yanhao was a little moved, so he quickly added fire, "You used to be delayed. Now that you have a good opportunity, go to international competitions more. This will not only accumulate competition experience , and you can learn more things, which is also very good for your current grades.”

In the end, Guo Zizhao gave Chen Yanhao a fierce slap, "Your current performance is basically at the bottleneck. Whether you can break through and enter within 13 seconds depends on next year. Brother Chen, to put it bluntly, next year The Olympic Games is probably your last, don't you want to taste the taste of the Olympic finals? You used to be the "Asian Hurdler King"?"

Guo Zizhao's words also instantly ignited Chen Yanhao's fighting spirit.

yes!I used to be the "Asian Hurdler King"... let alone the taste of the Olympic finals, even the semi-finals of the World Championships, I just stepped into it!Just give up?I am really not reconciled!Guo Zizhao is right, I will only be 28 next year!I can run another two years...

a long time……

"Oh... you bastard!" Chen Yanhao also patted Guo Zizhao on the shoulder, "I recognize you brother! Then next year I will go out for a walk, and see you in the Olympic finals then!"

"it is good……"
