Zizhao Chuan: The Biggest Sportsman

Chapter 276 China's Achievements Surprise the World
In the last two days before the end of the Olympic Games, the representative teams of various countries have also entered the final sprint stage of competing for the gold medal.

But at this time, the Chinese team's dominant project has completely ended.In the remaining two days, there are no items that can be charged for gold.However, with the current number of 32 gold medals, the Chinese team is also content to start the mode of sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight.

Naturally, the US team ranked first in the gold medal list with its strong strength.But this time, the Chinese team unexpectedly still sat firmly in the second position.Since September 9, the Chinese team has ascended to this position in one fell swoop, and has never come down again.Sitting firmly in the second place on the gold medal list for 22 consecutive days, this shocked the whole world.

Is this still the Chinese team that has been tepid?Although in the last two days, the Chinese team has no project to win the gold again.But this time the number of gold medals is 32, which is double that of the previous two Olympic Games!
Stunning!

This is the only feeling that all countries have about the performance of the Chinese team in this Olympic Games!Surprised the opponent!The audience was amazed!It even surprised the whole world!

This time, the Chinese team broke out in an all-round way except in their own advantageous sports such as shooting, gymnastics, weightlifting, badminton, table tennis and diving.In previous disadvantaged projects such as track and field, great breakthroughs have also been made.In each previous Olympic Games, the Chinese team won at most one track and field gold medal.But this time, there are a total of five gold medals.

Regardless of whether the Chinese team can maintain the second position in the gold medal list in the end, this is considered a great victory.So now, even the third-ranked Russian team is starting to catch up strongly.However, the mentality of the Chinese team is also very stable.

So what if he is caught up by the Russian team?Then he is not the third place on the gold medal list?Compared with the previous sessions, not only has it improved by one place on the gold medal list, but the number of gold medals has also doubled.These are hard results!With these things in hand, everyone is happy...

……

In the last two days, Russia, which ranked third in the gold medal table, really started the imperial counterattack.In Russia's most advantageous women's track and field event, she has won multiple gold medals in a row.

Finally, before the end of the Olympic Games on October 10, the Russian team finally increased the number of gold medals in this Olympic Games to the same 1 yuan as the Chinese team.However, with the number of silver and bronze medals far exceeding that of the Chinese team, Russia jumped to the second place in the medal table.

The Chinese team was overtaken by their opponents on the last day, and unfortunately fell to the third place in the medal table.The host Australia, this time also took advantage of the home court advantage.Killed the old strong team Germany and ranked fourth in the medal table.

In the end, when all the competitions of this Olympic Games were over, the medal lists of each country were officially released.

美国队最终以35金26银31铜，总共92枚奖牌占据了第一位；俄罗斯队以32金28银28铜，总共88枚奖牌排在了第二位；中国队则以32金16银15铜，总共63枚奖牌遗憾的排在了第三位；

东道主澳大利亚，以16金25银17铜，总共58枚奖牌升到了第四位；而德国队仅仅以13金17银26铜，总共56枚奖牌落到了第五位。

As soon as the medal list came out, although the Chinese people were excited about it, many people of insight were excited and realized that the Chinese team still had a lot of shortcomings.

Director Yuan Weiming, the head of the Chinese delegation to the Sydney Olympic Games, is such a person.

. . . . . .

After the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games, the main team officials, team leaders and coaches of the Chinese team also held a brief summary meeting.

At the conference, in addition to briefly summarizing the brilliant achievements of the Olympic Games and emphasizing the discipline on the last day in Sydney tomorrow, Director Yuan Weiming also discussed some problems in the Olympic Games. A simple review.

"Although this time, we have achieved a historic record of 32 gold medals. Even compared with the number one American team, we are only 3 gold medals behind. However, in terms of the total number of medals, It is not at the same level as the US team and the Russian team!"

"Even compared with the Australian and German teams behind us, we don't have a clear advantage in the total number of medals! What does this mean?"

"It shows that the overall level of our Chinese team is actually not much different from the Australian and German teams. This time we played well, so we have more gold medals and we are in the front. If we play well next time If it’s not good, it’s likely to fall again!”

"So, comrades, now is not the time for us to be complacent and arrogant!"

"In addition, in this Olympic Games, we won a lot of gold medals. However, I guess everyone has discovered that most of these gold medals are still concentrated in those few old advantageous events. That is to say, if these Once the project does not perform well, the number of our gold medals will drop significantly. This is worth our attention..."

"In terms of basic sports such as track and field, swimming, kayaking and rowing, we are still at an absolute disadvantage. There are nearly 120 gold medals in these events, but we only won 5 of them! And the other gold medals are basically divided up by European and American countries."

"This is the gap! Only by winning more gold medals in these basic categories can we be called a sports power! There is a long way to go..."

"Finally, this time we have experienced a sharp decline in some sports that we had advantages in. Swimming, volleyball, women's football and other sports have completely lost their competitiveness. This also requires us to conduct a deep reflection after we go back. ..."

……

After listening to Song Pingping's report, Guo Zizhao couldn't help silently giving a thumbs up in his heart!

Director Yuan is right, the ranking on the gold medal list does not explain anything.If you want to truly become an influential sports power, you still have to work hard on those basic sports!Otherwise, no matter how many gold medals you win, you still don't have the confidence to speak in the IOC.

After all, the influence of skill competitions in the world is still much worse.Moreover, once others want to mess with you in these competitions, it is also very easy.The experience of the Chinese team being hacked in previous Olympic Games also fully illustrates this point.

However, although it is easy to say, it is not easy to really make a breakthrough in these projects.

First of all, in terms of race, the yellow race does not have an advantage in this respect.Caucasians are naturally suitable for water sports such as swimming, kayaking, and rowing because of their large frame, broad shoulders, and long arms, plus a moderate body fat percentage.

Black people are very suitable for track and field events such as running and jumping because of their higher bone and muscle density, taller legs, and the lowest body fat percentage.

The yellow race is between the two, and all attributes are relatively average.Although they are not as strong as blacks in terms of bone and muscle strength, and not as good as Caucasians in body shape, they are slightly better than the former two in terms of flexibility and neural reactivity.Therefore, it also has an inherent advantage in skill competitions.

Furthermore, even the domestic sports environment is not optimistic.For the advantageous projects that can win the championship, not only the leaders attach great importance to it, but also invest a lot of manpower and material resources, and the public's enthusiasm for participation is also very high.On the contrary, for some basic projects that lack the strength to win the championship, the prospects are not clear, or require long-term investment, the degree of attention is much lower.

After all, for leaders in charge of sports at all levels, it is hard and solid political achievements to have outstanding results and championships during their term of office.

Even in the previous life, after nearly ten years of hard work, the Chinese team began to make qualitative breakthroughs in major sports such as track and field and swimming around 2010.

But now, Guo Zizhao hopes that with his own intervention in this life, the development of Chinese sports in these sports can be faster and smoother...
