Perhaps in order to save time, the TV station directly broadcast the finals instead of the semi-finals.

There are eight people in the competition venue, including two Chinese players. Baolin is number 122. Her clothes are red, so she is easy to identify.

When the gun went off, all the contestants had already rushed out. According to the previous competition rules, they had to maintain their strength because they had to skate 13 laps, and the teams would constantly change during this period. But what Zhang Xiuhua didn't expect was that someone actually rushed out first.

After a brief shock, another Chinese player had already chased out. Baolin quickly followed the other teams, watching the two people sliding farther and farther away.

Yaoyao was a little confused, "Why didn't those people follow?"

Ji Lin was also seeing this for the first time and didn’t understand, so he looked at his mother.

Zhang Xiuhua had watched Baolin compete many times, but this was the first time she saw such a situation. She was also a little confused. Why didn't these two people play by the rules? She thought for a while, "It's 13 laps, why are they running so fast? Now they run fast, but they don't have the energy to do it later. What should we do?!"

Everyone watched the two people chasing each other, and the people behind slowly caught up. They were one lap ahead at the beginning, but after sliding three laps, they were only half a lap ahead.

Gradually, the first contestant who rushed out ran out of energy and lost his strength. It might be because of turning or something else, and his speed slowed down a lot.

Just when everyone thought that another Chinese player would hit him, the opponent's entire body slipped out and the Chinese player narrowly avoided it!

"Oh my god, I almost got carried away by that! This is too dangerous!"

Zhang Xiuhua laughed and said, "There's a knife under the shoe, and it's moving so fast, how can it not be dangerous?"

Li Jianguo also watched with great interest, "But our team's stamina is running out. The speed has slowed down."

Zhuzhu nodded, "After all, let's skate out first. Skating for such a long time is very tiring."

Everyone saw Baolin in the middle of the team, with people in front and behind her, she was tripped up and couldn't get out at all. They couldn't help but worry about her.

Fortunately, it is easiest to overtake people when turning. She turned around and overtook the people behind her, leaving them behind and taking the first position.

The people behind him were also changing formation quickly.

Let me put it this way, if you stand in the same place to take a photo, the order of the athletes will be different each time for these thirteen laps.

"Oh no, we're being caught up?!" Ji Lin exclaimed.

"Oh no! I've been caught up." Zhuzhu pouted, looking regretful. She finally managed to pass, but she didn't expect to be pushed down so quickly.

The bell rang, and there was only one lap left. Everyone was sprinting. The Chinese player, who was originally in first place, gradually widened the gap with the others.

Everyone was making the final sprint. At the last moment, Baolin's endurance played an important role. She skated faster than others! She won the championship in one fell swoop! The other Chinese player ranked third.

Several children shouted excitedly. Zhuzhu, who has always been lively, jumped around on the kang, twisting her body and dancing.

Yaoyao and Jilin were not as active as her, but they were also very excited, with smiles on their faces and they were beaming with joy.

Zhang Xiuhua slapped Li Jianguo hard on the back, "My daughter is so amazing!"

Li Jianguo didn't feel any pain, he touched his head and smiled foolishly, "We have an Olympic champion in our family!"

"It seems that our country doesn't have a Winter Olympic champion yet?" Zhang Xiuhua asked uncertainly after laughing.

Li Jianguo really didn't know. If Baolin hadn't been an athlete, he wouldn't have watched short track speed skating competitions at all, mainly because they were too far away from their lives. Most of the competitions that the public watched were volleyball, football, basketball and table tennis.

The host was soon filled with joy, telling the audience in front of the TV, "This is the first time that our country has won the Winter Olympics championship. And it's the women's 1,500 meters."

The first one is always different. Li Jianguo and Zhang Xiuhua were very excited. "Baolin will not have to worry about finding a job in the future."

"Why didn't Baolin call back?" Zhang Xiuhua was excited, but also a little worried. Although they were not at home, Youcai and Ergou also had phones at home, so she should have called home.

"Is she still abroad? International long-distance calls are too expensive." Li Jianguo told her not to worry.

Zhuzhu spoke with the tone of a person who has experienced it, "She is going to be famous, and there will definitely be a lot of people who want to interview her. Maybe we can see her on TV."

Jilin also felt that Zhuzhu's guess was reliable, but he didn't know when Baolin would come back.

The next morning, Youcai ran over to report the good news to them, "Dad, Aunt Zhang, did you know? Baolin won the championship?!"

Li Jianguo opened the door for him, but the others hadn't gotten up yet.

Youcai was carrying breakfast and chatting with Zhang Xiuhua across the wall, "Baolin is amazing. He has only been training for a short time, but he has already won the Olympic championship."

Before Zhang Xiuhua opened her mouth, Li Jianguo was unhappy to hear, "What do you mean by how long have you been training? Baolin worked very hard to win the award. Her knees and elbows have been broken countless times. Your Aunt Zhang went to the sports team to see her and cried out of heartache. You just don't know."

When Youcai heard this, he immediately became worried, "Is she okay?"

"It's okay." Zhang Xiuhua came out of the house. "Those are just injuries from a fall. They will be fine after a few days of rest. She wanted to train more, but the coach wouldn't let her."

Li Jianguo was still thinking about what the coach said before, "He said Baolin has some talent, but not outstanding. Why did Baolin get first place so quickly?"

"She has better endurance. Look at the 500-meter short track speed skating, she can't beat others." Zhang Xiuhua thinks Baolin can practice this aspect in the future, maybe she can win more medals. Alas, she is too greedy now, she wants the next one after having one.

Li Jianguo now thinks that since Baolin is the world's number one, there is nothing she can't do, and he nodded, "She just didn't practice enough before. If she practices for a long time, maybe she can catch up with others in the 500-meter and 1,000-meter short track speed skating."

After dinner, Zhang Xiuhua took her family out for a stroll to see the scenery of the capital.

Although it is winter now, the snow scenery is still beautiful.

On Chinese New Year's Day, Zhang Xiuhua and her family celebrated the New Year with Master Zheng's family in the restaurant. Everyone was having a great time.

On the third day of the New Year, Zhang Xiuhua and her family returned.

The reason they came back so early was because they failed to buy train tickets for the fourth to seventh day of the New Year.

Just as Zhang Xiuhua and her group left the capital, Youcai received a call from Baolin. She had just returned from abroad and had just gotten off the plane. She called him and wanted to stay here for a few days.

Youcai was a little puzzled, "You called half an hour earlier, and Aunt Zhang hasn't left yet."

When Baolin asked, he found out that his parents were spending the New Year in the capital this year.

Although she felt a little disappointed that she couldn't see her family, Baolin soon felt relieved because she would be able to go home soon.

"By the way, what are you doing in the capital?" Youcai finally thought of the main thing.

"I was invited to share my short track speed skating story during the recording program," Baolin said with a smile.

Youcai congratulated her, "I watched your game, and the whole family watched it. You're amazing! Come over sometime, and I'll make you a table full of delicious food. Just order whatever you want!"

Baolin was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He immediately ordered food, "Then I want chicken stewed with mushrooms."

"Okay! I'll put it in the pot and stew it now, come over quickly." Youcai agreed readily.

Baolin got off the plane, took a taxi, and took the coach to the hotel.

Not only she was invited to the recording of this program, but also the coach.

When the coach learned that his brother opened a restaurant in the capital, he was a little surprised, "Aren't you from the Northeast?"

"Yes! This restaurant doesn't belong to my brother, but to his father-in-law. My brother is the chef, but he can still afford a meal." Baolin treated his brother without any pity.

The coach suddenly realized, "Your brother is so lucky! He can marry such a good wife."

Baolin smiled proudly, "His cooking skills are better than his life. We can eat authentic Northeastern cuisine later!"

During her stay in Canada, she ate sandwiches, hamburgers, and sausages every day, and she was about to vomit.

When the coach heard her mention chicken stewed with mushrooms, his mouth was watering with envy.
