After a summer vacation, a classmate became an Olympic champion?

Chapter 112 I'd rather die in the swimming pool!

"I... I was just passing by!"

Chen Shu showed an awkward but polite smile: "Goodbye, Director Cui!"

He said hello to Cui Dengrong and prepared to leave.

But Cui Dengrong shouted directly: "Come back!"

"Ah?"

Chen Shu turned around and said with a bitter smile: "Director Cui, I really passed by. I was going to find Zhan Shuo. His room is at the end!"

"Come in and close the door!"

Since Cui Dengrong said so, Chen Shu had to close the door and walked in front of him.

Cui Dengrong pointed to the bed: "Sit anywhere!"

"Director Cui, I really--"

"I know, I don't blame you!"

Cui Dengrong smiled a little. Seeing him like this, Chen Shu felt relieved and sat at the head of his bed.

"Did you hear what Sun Yang said just now?"

"Uh..."

Chen Shu hesitated, looked at Cui Dengrong's eyes, and scratched his head: "Director Cui, I didn't mean to listen!"

"I just happened to walk over and heard Sun Yang's voice, and your door was open, I was afraid that you would find me if I walked over, so... hehe!"

There was nothing wrong with what Chen Shu said.

Cui Dengrong was not angry, but laughed: "In the end, I found him out, didn't I?"

"Yeah, there's nothing I can do about it, you're always so sharp-eyed!"

Chen Shu spread his hands, and Cui Dengrong smiled: "What do you think after listening to what Sun Yang said?"

"What do you think?"

"He's going to participate in the 4*200m freestyle, which is the relay final tonight!"

Cui Dengrong looked at Chen Shu's eyes, and Chen Shu thought about it seriously this time, and then said: "Director Cui, tell me what I think, my personal opinion!"

"Well, you say!"

Although Chen Shu is only 14, Cui Dengrong knows that Chen Shu has a very calm personality.

And he doesn't talk much in the team, so Cui Dengrong is very confident in him.

Just looking at him, he doesn't look like a 14-year-old kid at all, but is about the same age as Pan Zhanle.

So, Cui Dengrong happened to see Chen Shu and wanted to ask him what he thought about this matter.

The most important thing is that this kid listened to everything he said.

If he didn't ask him, Cui Dengrong would seem guilty.

"I don't know the details of what happened to Brother Yang before, so I will only talk about now!"

"For the 200-meter event, whoever is faster will definitely go first. This has always been the rule of the swimming team!"

"Try to swim the fastest. Since you agree to let him compete with us, he should be considered a member of our swimming team!"

"If he is really faster than Zhanshuo in the 200-meter freestyle, I think he should be selected as the main player!"

Chen Shu almost didn't think much and directly expressed his opinion.

Cui Dengrong nodded: "Well, in principle, it must be like this!"

"But Sun Yang,There is a bad record!"

"That can't erase his contribution to the Chinese swimming team, right?"

As Chen Shu said this, Cui Dengrong said, "I took this into consideration and asked you for your opinion. After all, you just came to the swimming team!"

"If I were really so unkind, I wouldn't ask you, understand?"

"As a coach, of course I want him to play, but this is not something I can decide!"

Cui Dengrong said that, and then paused and said, "But since you said so, I'll ask Xiao Pan and others. If you agree, I'll try and ask the team leader for their opinions!"

"I have no objection anyway, and I don't think Brother Pan will have any objection either. Director Cui, you'd better ask Zhan Shuo. He is the most critical one. After all, it's his quota-"

"Well! ”

Cui Dengrong glanced at Chen Shu: "Zhan Shuo's 200m freestyle is not as fast as Sun Yang's at the moment. There are too many turns in the short pool, which is a big challenge for turning!"

"Besides, Zhan Shuo will have a men's 400m medley event tonight. He can't handle swimming two games in a row!"

"Let's go, I'll go ask him first! ”

Cui Dengrong stood up, Chen Shu also stood up quickly, and the two walked towards Zhang Zhanshuo's room.

Zhang Zhanshuo is very talented, but his underwater turns are indeed better than Chen Shu's before.

In his heart, Chen Shu actually hopes that Sun Yang will take over.

The reason is actually very simple. The men's 200m freestyle short pool relay is not that stable.

The reason why the four of them won the first place in the Paris Olympics was because of Chen Shu's explosiveness. In the end, he only won by 0.01 seconds, an extremely weak advantage.

Of course, Chen Shu's 200m freestyle now is definitely not the same as it was then.

He has become much stronger.

But this is not a long pool.

Everyone in the short pool has four more personal turns.

Chen Shu is fine, Pan Zhanle is not a big problem either, he is really His strength has improved, but what about Ji Xingjie and Zhang Zhanshuo? !

Zhang Zhanshuo still has to swim one more game, how much physical strength does he have left?

No one knows.

This is why Chen Shu is not confident of winning the gold medal in the men's 200m freestyle relay.

Let alone winning the gold medal, he really doesn't have the heart to do it.

Among the four relay events, the men's 4*200m freestyle is the most difficult one for Chen Shu.

So if Sun Yang can make it, even if he doesn't have the speed of his peak period, he can definitely make up for it in terms of technology.

Chen Shu definitely hopes to have an extra chance of winning.

He guessed that Cui Dengrong should have the same idea as him.

Who doesn't want to win a medal?

Cui Dengrong would definitely like to try if he can win a medal.

……

"Zhanshuo, is Brother Yang really faster than you? ”

Although Chen Shu has practiced 200m freestyle during this period, his main events are definitely butterfly and 50m.

Unlike Zhang Zhanshuo and Sun Yang, who are both long distance swimmersThey are close to athletes, and the two often compete in 200m and 400m, so they have more contact.

As soon as Cui Dengrong left, Chen Shu hurriedly asked.

Just now, when Zhang Zhanshuo heard that his starting choice was gone and Sun Yang was replaced, he actually let out a long sigh.

So he agreed without thinking.

Is this guy under so much pressure?

In fact, he must be the one with the most pressure in the team.

With Chen Shu and Pan Zhanle, Ji Xingjie has always been the main force of the 200m men's free relay, and only Zhang Zhanshuo started to join the team last year.

His strength is indeed the weakest among the four.

Winning the gold medal at the Paris Olympics was something he never expected.

So now that he has the Olympic gold medal in hand, if he wins the silver or bronze medal in the Swimming World Cup, or at least no medal, he will definitely be the one who is criticized the most.

The popularity of the Swimming World Cup is no less than that of the Olympics.

This is not to say that he is a coward or something, but these are the worst results that an athlete can think of before going to the battlefield.

If the coach asks him to play, he will definitely go without saying anything.

In his heart, he also wants to give it a try.

But the cost-effectiveness of the gold medal in the Swimming World Cup is different from that of the Olympic gold medal.

If he fails in this project, he will suffer from online violence, and success is just icing on the cake.

So Cui Dengrong asked Sun Yang to play, and Zhang Zhanshuo didn't think it was a big deal. He would definitely try his best when he played.

But the coach said so now, of course he didn't have any objection.

The most important thing is that he still has a single 400-meter medley, which is only half an hour away from the relay.

Half an hour of physical recovery will definitely cause loss.

"Brother Yang is indeed faster than me, but his physical fitness has deteriorated seriously. He can only take the first shot every time, but not the rest!"

At 32 years old, he is twice as old as Zhang Zhanshuo, who is 16 years old.

To put it bluntly, Sun Yang has already won when he stands on the field of the world championship at this age.

After all, swimming is a sport that is very dependent on age.

Age is better than talent.

Phelps, who is 31 years old, has already retired.

How many swimmers can't make it through the threshold of 30 years old, which is the strength threshold of swimmers?

If Sun Yang hadn't held his breath in his heart, if he had participated in the Tokyo Olympics and the Paris Olympics, Paris would definitely be his last dance after retirement.

But now, he has to stand up and give his swimming career the most tragic curtain call.

And the 200-meter freestyle relay is the last dignity he can give to his brilliant career.

He wants to reconcile with his unwillingness to get old, and this competition may be his knot!

"I learned all my long-distance freestyle moves from him!"

"If it's really possible, I still want to see Brother Yang stand on the world stage again!"

Zhang ZhanshuoSuddenly, Chen Shu nodded in agreement: "Yes, the final destination of swimmers is in the arena!"

"If he retires like that, it will be the most fatal injury in his life!"

"So, come on, win this gold medal!" (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

Zhang Zhanshuo said to Chen Shu, Chen Shu shrugged: "It's not that easy... I can only say try!"

"Definitely!"

"I believe that if anyone else has such an opportunity, he will definitely try his best!"

Anyway, Zhang Zhanshuo will definitely do it.

Chen Shu will of course do it too. []

This is different from their all-out swimming project. This is Sun Yang's only chance to prove himself. He might just blow it up!

At least Chen Shu is empathetic. If he encounters such a thing, he will definitely cherish this hard-won opportunity.

Breaking through oneself is a direct slap in the face of the previous things.

After the two chatted for a while, Chen Shu received a group message.

It was a small group created by Pan Zhanle, with only a few male team members in it.

"Damn, just now Lao Cui came to me and asked me if Brother Yang could join the relay..."

Ji Xinjie: "He asked me too!"

"What did you say?"

"If Brother Yang joins, I will definitely swim my life away!"

If there is a team member who has a good relationship with Sun Yang, Ji Xinjie is definitely one of them.

"Before the Paris Olympics, the Asian record for the 200m freestyle relay was created by me, Brother Yang, Brother Shun, and Brother Turtle!"

"Without Brother Yang, would I have won a medal at the World Championships and Asian Games?"

Ji Xinjie's 200m freestyle relay won the silver medal at the Asian Games and the bronze medal at the Short Course World Championships. He, Sun Yang, Wang Shun, and Xu Jiayu were the four main players of the Chinese swimming team.

Only he and Sun Yang really practiced the 200m freestyle event.

Wang Shun and Xu Jiayu were at most temporary additions, because the Chinese team had no one in the 200m freestyle event.

Without Sun Yang and Ji Xingjie, it would have been impossible for China to win the Asian record in the 200m freestyle relay. This was achieved by Sun Yang alone.

"Let's do it, help Brother Yang win a championship!"

"Well, I'll try anyway!"

"Chen Shu, Zhang Zhanshuo, have you two found Lao Cui?"

"Yes, I'm with Zhanshuo, let's help Brother Yang win a gold medal!"

Chen Shu also did it.

Zhang Zhanshuo sent a proud expression pack, and the four people were excited at the moment. Wang Shun and Xu Jiayu in the group immediately liked it.

They were once teammates of Sun Yang, so of course they supported him unconditionally.

"Does Zhanshuo have any objections?"

Wang Shun was still too comprehensive. As the captain, he had to comfort his teammates.

"What can I say? Brother Yang's winning rate will only increase if he plays!"

"That's good, and I still have a game!"

"Well, Zhanshuo has no objection. Then come on, I'll cheer for you guys!"

Xu Jiayu: "+1!"

Xu Jiayu was actually the worst in the national team's 200m freestyle relay.

He is a backstroke swimmer and is not familiar with freestyle. Even his entry into the water is like a turtle turning over. He has made many jokes when turning underwater. After all, the turning postures of backstroke and freestyle are completely different.

He turned wrong several times. Muscle memory is really hard to change.

But even so, the four of them often won medals in this relay event and broke the Asian record.

Sun Yang's 200m freestyle is worth a class.

"Okay, assemble!"

"Tonight's competition is up to you brothers. Beat Australia, Europe and the United States!"

Wang Shun shouted in the group, and everyone packed up and walked downstairs.

Later, after the 400m mixed men's and women's preliminaries, the men's and women's 200m freestyle relay will begin.

The men will take the lead this time.

When Chen Shu and Pan Zhanle arrived downstairs, they saw Sun Yang standing next to Cui Dengrong.

"Brother Yang, have you convinced the team leader?"

Zhang Zhanshuo suddenly approached him and said, as they were rushing to the stadium.

Sun Yang was obviously stunned after hearing this. He didn't expect that his own affairs seemed to be known by the entire men's team?

But he still reacted quickly and smiled and said, "I said, sorry, Zhanshuo..."

"What's the matter? I thought you couldn't get into 013!"

"How did you convince him?"

Wang Shun approached Sun Yang.

He was quite curious about this, after all, they were the two with the best relationship in the swimming team.

Although there were some misunderstandings of backstabbing before, but there is no acquaintance without fighting. In fact, those who really know the two know that they are very close in private.

"What do you think?"

Sun Yang was playing a riddle, but Wang Shun understood: "Just this one chance?"

"If there is a first time, there will be a second time!"

"Just wait and see how long I can hold on!"

Sun Yang pursed his lips, obviously still looking forward to the short-course and long-course World Championships.

"Sure!"

"If you can stay and contribute to the swimming team, the leaders will definitely turn a blind eye!"

It depends on whether an athlete is valuable.

Sun Yang, who is currently 32 years old, obviously still has some energy.

His 200m freestyle and 400m freestyle are where his value lies.

As long as he does not retire, the swimming team will certainly need him.

"Why did the leader agree?"

Pan Zhanle asked Wang Shun in a low voice, but Chen Shu and the others didn't understand.

"Because of what happened back then, he was blamed!"

"Oh~~"

The crowd finally understood.

This was a post-event compensation, and the leader might have given him a chance this time out of shame.

That's why Sun Yang said that there wasIf there is one, there will be two.

As long as he performs well, there will definitely be a second chance.

"So brothers, please help Lao Sun together!"

"We must win the 200-meter freestyle gold medal this time!"

Wang Shun said.

Sun Yang, who was walking in front, paused and clenched his fists.

He is definitely not suitable to say such words.

But as the captain, Wang Shun can encourage everyone.

"Need I say that?"

"Of course!"

"We must win!"

Pan Zhanle, Chen Shu and Ji Xingjie were waving their fists, and they were already looking forward to the last and last game tonight.

...

Five minutes later, Chen Shu and others had arrived at the competition venue of the Oriental Sports Center.

In the first 400m medley preliminary, Zhang Zhanshuo, as the only one in the Chinese swimming team, had to participate.

As for the women's 400m medley, no one met the standard.

This is also the only event in this Swimming World Cup where no Chinese athletes participated.

Medley swimming is still too demanding for swimmers.

This not only requires physical reserves, but more importantly, all four swimming styles!

You have to master all four to qualify.

Among Chinese female swimmers, there are not many who practice this event, and there are even fewer who are top-notch. At least there is no one at present.

"Chen Shu, Zhanle, Xinjie..."

"Sun Yang!"

"Come on, the four of you!"

Cui Dengrong suddenly shouted to Chen Shu and the other four, and all the other swimmers looked at Sun Yang.

Of course they are not stupid. Cui Dengrong said this, and it is obvious that they will be allowed to participate in the men's 4*200m relay later! .
