[Competition] The Road to Champion of the Seventh Prince of the Dragon Palace

A few old coaches got together and talked together: what important competitions are there in the last two months?

It's the end of the year, and it seems that there are no competitions—no, there will be a Short Course World Cup in Singapore in January next year.

This is not an important event, it belongs to a series of competitions. Several races will be held in different places around the world during the year. Each national team can selectively send athletes to participate.

Under normal circumstances, this kind of competition is mostly based on training young teenagers, and then paired with a few veteran athletes who are second in each event. Therefore, the significance of training is greater than competition.

When athletes are selected for the national team, there will be coaches to go with them. In previous years, because of Fu Xingtu, the team was led by Shen Xingguo.

Now that Fu Xingtu has retired, and Shen Xingguo has been promoted to the head coach and will no longer personally lead the players, isn't this spot vacant?

Fu Xingtu had just started working for less than a year. To put it bluntly, according to the regulations of the career establishment, his probationary period hadn't passed yet.

Shen Xingguo can't be biased like this.

Not long after, the list of the national winter training team came down, starting on December 12, for a period of 21 days, and then about 30 days of competition. On February 10, the coaches and athletes returned to the provincial teams.

There are three players selected in Province C, Ao Ling, Qi Yi and Shen Fei.

……

There are four people in dormitory 403, only Liang Fan was not selected.

Not to mention Liang Fan himself, even Fu Xingtu was surprised.

Although Liang Fan failed the physical fitness test and was only qualified for the Asian Games selection, he was disqualified from the championship.

But his performance in the short-distance backstroke is also impressive, especially compared with athletes of the same age.

Although he didn't say anything, Ao Ling could tell that Liang Fan was still a little frustrated.

A brother in a dormitory, the other three have entered the national team, but he was not selected.

No one will feel good about this matter.

The point is, the other team members still use this incident to tease him, regardless of his feelings, which makes Liang Fan even more depressed.

In the beginning, Ao Ling always tried to make him happy, and accompanied him to watch the rhythmic gymnastics and synchronized swimming team's girls' training.

Later, I found out that it was useless to say anything.On the surface, Liang Fan didn't look much different from usual, except that he often lost his mind when he was alone.

Ao Ling didn't say much anymore, but she still accompanied him every day.

Obviously he was not good at playing games, but he still played ranked with Liang Fan, trying to trick him, dropping ranks again and again.

The two sat by the pool, watching the girls in synchronized swimming doing handstands in the pool, with their legs sticking out of the water, posing in various poses.

At this time, someone walked up to them holding a mobile phone and mouthed them to say hello.

This person is promoted by the Sports Bureau, and he often shoots some training videos of provincial team athletes and posts them on the short video platform.

Gymnastics, diving, and synchronized swimming are highly ornamental events that usually have higher clicks than other events, so he often comes to shoot materials.

After the National Swimming Championships, because of Ao Ling's soaring popularity at that time, he also went to the swimming team to shoot videos of their training.

But the athletes in the water have different swimming caps, goggles, and swim trunks. At a glance, all the swimmers galloping in the water are the same, and fans can't tell who is who.

After the video was posted, the reverse was normal, the number of likes and views did not meet expectations, and all the comments couldn't tell which one was their cub.

After two days of shooting, I really didn't get what the fans wanted to see, so forget it.

I met by chance by the pool today. Two handsome teenagers were wearing white T-shirts and sweatpants, sitting there head to head. Looking from a distance, the youthful atmosphere rushed to my face.

Ao Ling looked at the camera, showed a shy smile, and looked away the next second.

On the other side, Liang Fan tilted his head and whispered something in his ear. Ao Ling pushed him, and the two teenagers bumped their shoulders, and after bouncing away, they leaned together and laughed again.

It's childish, but fun.

This short video was sent out in the afternoon, and the official account of the C Provincial Sports Bureau went viral that night.

That short video had more than 500 million views and more than 20 likes. Among the more than 3 comments, it was all about one person—Ao Ling.

"After a month, I saw Zai Zai again."

"Wow, my cub is so handsome, a clean boy should wear a white T-shirt."

"Taking pictures of my cub is all about taking pictures of his face. With such good skin, such a delicate appearance, and always taking pictures of swimming scenes, I can't even tell who is him."

"The relationship between Xiaoqi and his teammates is really good, the boys are fighting and fighting, the atmosphere is really great!"

"It is said that our Xiaoqi is the group favorite in the team, and the brothers and sisters all like him."

"..."

The staff of this social platform seems to have opened the door to quickly increase fans and increase popularity.

He runs to the swimming pool every day, just to take pictures of the time when Fu Xingtu's group finally started training.

Eight handsome teenagers in their fifteenth or sixteenth year, all with bare upper body, wearing knee-length black swimming trunks underneath, with muscular arms and well-proportioned chest muscles, and rectus abdominis divided into eight symmetrical pieces by tendons.

With broad shoulders, thin waist and long legs, and narrow buttocks, even Fu Xingtu, who was holding a stopwatch and swearing at people with a whistle in his mouth, was so handsome.

Among them, Ao Ling is of course the most popular. Every time he takes a close-up of him, whether it is taking off his swimming goggles, smoothing his hair, or wiping the water droplets on his chin, it will attract a large number of fans to watch.

A few days later, he actually received a private message that a well-known domestic sporting goods manufacturer wanted to cooperate with the Provincial C swimming team and provide them with equipment and clothing sponsorship. The request was that Ao Ling would shoot an advertisement for them.

The leader thinks it is feasible. Some people are willing to send money and equipment, but just shoot an advertisement, so why not do it.

So, taking advantage of Shen Xingguo and Fu Xingtu's meeting at the Sports Bureau, the leader made a special trip to chat with them about this matter before the meeting started.

As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Xingtu made it clear: "I don't agree."

The leader said: "No matter what the project is, the national team members are getting more and more commercial endorsements. Just Fan Yuhao, the commercials are filmed one after another. Our players are no worse than him. Why don't we take advantage of this opportunity?"

Shen Xingguo waved his hand: "The child is too young, not yet 16 years old. At this stage, training is still the main thing."

The leader stretched out his fingers, "They promised your swimming team a sponsorship fee of this amount, as well as clothing and equipment for the entire provincial team for three years. The only request is that Ao Ling shoot an advertisement for them."

Hearing these words, Fu Xingtu's blood pressure was immediately full, and he asked bluntly: "If there is no sponsorship fee and equipment, and only promises to sign personal commercial sponsorships for athletes, will this advertisement still be shot?"

"..."

There were several people sitting in the meeting room, and the atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing point.The leader's face was extremely ugly, and there was a sensible person beside him, who immediately made a cup of tea and brought it over.

"Fu Xingtu, don't forget your identity."

Shen Xingguo committed the problem of protecting his shortcomings again, so he quickly stood up to smooth things over: "It's almost time, let's have a meeting first, this matter can't be decided in a day or two. Ao Ling will go to the national team for training soon, I think first Let it go, and talk about it when you come back."

The content of the meeting was related to the national winter training team. Three athletes from their province were selected this time. According to the ratio, one coach is allowed to enter the national team for further study and further study.

For this place to go to the national team, the coaches of the provincial swimming team tried their best and thought of various ways to fight for it. Even if there were three players selected for the national team, none of them were brought out by them, but the swimming management center did not. According to the regulations, only the executive coach of the athlete can lead the team.

In order to fight for this spot, some people even brought their ideas to the Provincial Sports Bureau.

At this time, it happened that the Swimming Management Center of the National Sports Association issued another notice-specific arrangements for organizing the training of the second-line national swimming team.

集训时间从1月4号开始到2月1号，一共28天，各省市表队最多选派四名运动员参加集训。

Athletes aged between 14 and 18 must meet the national first-class athlete standards. Athletes with training prospects, development potential, and high comprehensive quality will participate in this training camp and submit their grade certificates for inspection when they report.

At the same time, each representative team can also choose the best to send a coach, and the age must not exceed 50 years old.

After this announcement, the coaching staff agreed that Fu Xingtu was the most suitable candidate to lead the team.

Such a good opportunity should be given to young comrades to go out and exercise more.

Shen Xingguo smiled and said nothing, but he knew it in his heart and didn't express his opinion.

Fu Xingtu sat beside him, his face sinking like water, and he didn't bother to talk to them at all.

The next day, the arrangement of the Provincial Sports Bureau came down. The coach selected by the National Winter Training Team was Director Zhang, and the members of the National Second Team selected two men and two women. Fu Xingtu.

Shen Xingguo called Fu Xingtu to the office, and the master and apprentice chatted alone for a while.

"Well, I wanted you to go to province Y this time. I didn't expect that Lao Zhang is so active. You know that the one who almost gave you a heart attack before the meeting was Lao Zhang's brother-in-law. .” Shen Xingguo sighed several times while holding his big tea mug.

Although he is the head coach, he has always favored Fu Xingtu as an apprentice in his heart, but there are bigger leaders above him, and there are some things that he can't help.

Fu Xingtu snorted softly: "Do you think I really want to go to the national team? I just..."

Although he didn't finish his sentence, Shen Xingguo was his master after all, he only listened to half of it and understood what he wanted to say.

How could Fu Xingtu want to go to the national team? He is very familiar with that place and has left a lot of regrets. Since he can't go back to the past, he might as well not visit the old place again.

Shen Xingguo put the teacup on the table, looked at the yellow leaves outside the window and sighed: "I know, this opportunity for plateau training is very rare, and Ao Ling and the others were brought together by you. Their grades go up."

Fu Xingtu took a deep breath. Anyway, there were only the two of them in the office, so he talked with his master: "National Swimming Championships, Xiaoqi's results are very good, almost reaching the level of international masters."

"But you also said at the time that he was a competitive player, and he had a personal best on the field. What does this mean? It's just an extraordinary performance."

"The closer the results are to a high level, the harder it is to make a breakthrough. Now is the most critical period. You also said just now that high-altitude training is very rare. You know the level of the person coaching Zhang. I am not very good at it." I am willing to let my team members waste a month of time and such a good opportunity."

The master and apprentice were silent for a long time, Shen Xingguo stood up, walked around the desk and came to Fu Xingtu's side, and patted his shoulder with a generous palm like a father: "Forget it, it's not bad to go to S City, a big city. I also I don’t know what’s going on with you now, I don’t feel at ease going to the plateau area.”

Fu Xingtu tapped twice on the glass of the desk: "Alright, I wanted to find a chance to clean up Liang Fan, he is really a bit outrageous."

"I know that child," Shen Xingguo thought about it. "When I came to the provincial team two years ago, my parents were not very willing. The family conditions are good, and the parents dote on the child. They are spoiled and spoiled, so they can't bear hardships."

"If you can't bear hardships, go back as soon as possible. Don't waste your time and talent here." Speaking of this, Fu Xingtu stood up, "I haven't finished writing the summary of the meeting yet, so I'm busy."

The team members have all heard about this incident. A few young lads complained especially for their director Fu, and even said that they would write a joint letter to the leaders of the Sports Bureau.

Shen Fei stopped them: "Come on, train hard, don't mess around, if you don't make trouble for Mr. Fu, you will be sensible."

Liang Fan was the most unhappy about this matter. He thought he could get rid of their Fu's guidance and spend a month easily.

He lay on his back on the bed and sighed: "I never thought that our President Fu would lose to nepotism."

Ao Ling was also unhappy. When he heard that he was going to the national team for training, Fu Xingtu would not go with them, and Ao Ling was in a bad mood.

He even ran to ask Shen Fei: "Captain, can I..."

He hesitated for a moment, Shen Fei thought that he wanted to steal something again, so he heard the little guy startle: "Can I not go to the national team."

"..."

How many athletes have been training for a lifetime, dreaming of entering the national team or the first team of the country, they are good juniors, don't want to go? ? ?

"why?"

Ao Ling bit her lower lip, not knowing what to say.

"Because of Mr. Fu." Qi Yi sat on his bed and gave him the answer.

It was only then that Shen Fei suddenly realized, and teased him with a smile: "Reluctant to give up to guide Fu?"

Ao Ling went to pull Liang Fan's arm: "I don't want to part with Senior Brother Liang Fan either."

Liang Fan put his arms around his neck and brought him into his arms: "Good boy, senior brother didn't love you for nothing."

Shen Fei pulled him to the desk and sat down: "When you go to the national team, you will meet many new friends and new coaches. There is a broader platform there, and you will find yourself improving very quickly."

"..."

Ao Ling pursed her lips and did not speak.

He couldn't tell why, he just didn't want to be separated from Fu Xingtu, let alone have a new coach to train him, especially that Director Zhang.

He felt that Director Zhang couldn't even train his players well.

Shen Fei continued to comfort him: "It's only been over a month, and we'll be back after the game. You will always be a team member under Fu's guidance, and this cannot be changed."

Liang Fan was talking beside him: "Unless he doesn't want you anymore."

"..."

Ao Ling's eyes widened suddenly: "Why doesn't he want me?"

"Don't worry," Qi Yi's voice came from the other side coolly, "Mr. Fu must be the first one not to want Liang Fan."

Liang Fan got on his bed as soon as he turned over, and the two wrestled together: "You mouth, if you can't speak, just throw it away."

Just when everyone thought the matter was settled like this, they never expected that after only two days, there would be a turning point!

The author has something to say: In fact, this article can be regarded as a group portrait, and I want to shape everyone well.

Athletes should have no cannon fodder. If there is, it should be foreign opponents.

I'm going to catch bugs! ! !
