[Competition] Strive for the top

2010年11月18号,晚19:47分,广州亚运会最后一天。

The men's 4x100m medley relay award ceremony began. You Le and Yuan Zheng walked in the middle of the team. In front of him and behind him were Liu Lang and Teng Zhenzhi.The four talked in low voices, with big smiles on their faces, and walked around the pool to the podium.

The Chinese National Swimming Team finally adopted a conservative arrangement and put the strongest players in a relay team. Sure enough, they defeated the Japanese and South Korean teams and won the gold medal in this event.

The national anthem of the People's Republic of China was played in the arena, and the five-star red flag was hoisted on the highest point and was slowly rising.You Le and the others held flowers in their arms, with golden medals hanging around their necks, looking into the distance, with solemn faces, and with slightly parted lips, they sang a song firmly engraved in their minds...

The swimming competition of the Guangzhou Asian Games lasted six days. China won 24 golds, 16 silvers, and 14 bronzes, a total of 54 medals.

游乐获得了50自，100自和200自，以及4x50米自接力、4x100米自接力的五枚金牌，200米混合泳的银牌，以及4x100米混合泳的铜牌，并在50米自游泳上打破了亚运会的纪录。

Similarly, the big hero in this Asian Games is Yuan Zheng, who broke the Asian Games record for the second time and won hardware and a bronze.

The young couple were really proud of swimming for the Chinese men.

In retrospect, You Le still clearly remembers that in the last few days, the players of the Japanese and Korean teams looked at them with the end of their eyes, and said some sour words in chirping birdsong. He knew it without translation, for sure. What kind of hosts are you talking about, what is the right time and place for people, such sarcastic remarks about not having grapes and saying grapes are sour.

It's the host, how about it!Young Master, I not only won the gold medal in the Asian Games, but I also won the gold medal in the World Championships and the Olympic Games!We'll see what you say then!

You Xiaoye was really awesome at the end of the Asian Games!The cow's nose is poking into the ceiling!Especially after Director Xu Hanxu of the China Swimming Federation suddenly mentioned "China Tour" in the live broadcast room, advertisers flocked to him, making the bosses in the bureau very happy, and the expenses for next year can be regarded as settled .

Now is the commercial age, advertising benefits are paramount, and sports can’t stick to the rules. To produce an excellent athlete, in addition to having performance and winning glory for the country, the most important thing is the money.

In recent years, the Chinese national team has become more or less self-responsible.Only with tickets can there be resources, and only with tickets can more newcomers be trained, and the pockets of leaders can be bulged.

This is not philistine, not vulgar, but social ethos.

A week after the end of the Asian Games, the bigwigs in the bureau knew that the amusement fair was a cash cow.

One Monday afternoon, the General Administration called You Le's coach, manager and family members into the meeting room of the office building. Director Zhao held a large stack of folders and threw them on the table in front of You Mingjie and said, "Choose, no. If it affects training, pick a few out, and then we will have a meeting to discuss."

You Mingjie had already been irritated by his future father-in-law, and he was not in a hurry, so he chose slowly, and finally picked out two advertisements, one for Mengniu Dairy and the other for ASUS Computer.

Director Zhao looked at the two folders and smiled: "You're good at picking? Director Liu mentioned it to you, right?"

"En." You Mingjie nodded.

"That's okay, I won't talk nonsense, old rules, Sanqi, as a reward for these years of training, we will charge [-]%."

"Okay." You Mingjie nodded without thumping, took out a cigarette and lit it for Director Zhao, "There is nothing to discuss about this matter, the black and white system is fine, what are you going to say in the next meeting? It is impossible to just talk about this matter Son? It’s a big deal.”

Director Zhao thought for a while, lowered his waist, and said in a low voice, "Packaging, the sports man of the year award, we may give You Le a man of the year award, or the best newcomer award, that's all we want to talk about."

With a cigarette in his mouth, You Mingjie swallowed the clouds, thought for a while, then shook his head: "I don't want both."

"Huh?" Director Zhao was stunned for a moment, "No?"

"Well, don't." You Mingjie nodded heavily, "The honor can't be given too early, he is still young, so it can be a little later, can't the best newcomer be given to Yuan Zheng?"

"He..." Director Zhao frowned, hesitated to speak, and said vaguely, "Without You Le, he is enough, but now You Le is here, in front of 'China Tour', Yuan Zheng is still a little bit worse."

You Mingjie frowned: "Yuan Zheng is outstanding."

"I know, but..."

"Brother Zhao, do me this favor. It's not suitable for you to play this year, but next year."

"...Then you can talk to Bureau Liu. It was he who proposed it. He said that the media are all in this direction. He hopes to package the game and become a sports idol."

You Mingjie patted the back of his head and sighed: "What kind of bullshit? Do you want him to train after doing this? If you don't train and get results, why not pack it up! Anyway, I don't agree!"

Before the meeting, You Mingjie went to his future father-in-law's office to sit for a while, and then came out. The meeting was cancelled, and this year's newcomer award had been assigned to Yuan Zheng by default.

It's not that You Mingjie doesn't look towards his nephew, he really doesn't feel at ease, although You Le has grown up in the past year, but his life experience and mentality are still there, showing him such a flashy world in one breath, he I'm a little worried.

But Yuan Zheng is different, stable, firm, and consistent. Coupled with his family environment and personal experience, those things outside can have little impact on him.For Yuan Zheng, he put 120 hearts at ease.

You Mingjie went back and told You Le about the advertisement.You Le's eyes instantly turned into "$_$", and his happy face was distorted.I understand that the day when we You Xiaoye make money has finally arrived!

You Le is really greedy for money, he is unambiguous about money, if you give it to me, I will take it.After all, I was brought up by relatives since I was a child, and no matter how close I was, I lacked a little bit of energy. Grandma gave a few hundred, and my uncle and second uncle gave a few hundred, which is different from what my parents gave. , so as long as the team arranges for him, he doesn't have a word of objection, as long as he has money, he can run fast with his feet.

The commercial shooting time was set after the World Championships in Dubai. During this period of time, his training was tense. During the preparation period, he didn’t have time to dance the striptease for Brother Xiaozheng, so there is no rush.

A month later, You Le and Yuan Zheng and several first-line team members went to Dubai. When they came back, they came back with two gold medals. .

Yuan Zheng was beaten by Meituan in this expedition. He lost to Phelps in butterfly stroke and Lochte in medley swimming. In four events, he won two silvers and two bronzes. Gold medal.

Youle is very lucky. Cierro, who ranked first in freestyle, was found to have used doping in the National Games in China, which led to him being suspended by the FINA this year. French star Frederick, who ranked second, was banned before the competition. Injured, forfeited the game.

As a result, there was a huge gap in the harvest of young couples of the same level, causing You Le to look at Yuan Zheng's face all the way, and didn't dare to show off the gold medal.

Competition, more or less has something to do with luck.

On the evening of January 1th, Beijing time, the 19 CCTV Sports Man of the Year Awards Ceremony started grandly at the National Stadium.

At the grand awards show, all the biggest names in the sports world appeared in costumes, and the stars were shining brightly.In the Best Male Athlete Award, the highlight of the awards ceremony, the Chinese male swimmer, You Le, who has the title of "China Tour", was selected as he wished amidst the appeal of the audience.

Yuan Zheng only won the best newcomer award this year.

You Mingjie found Director Liu in the background, and asked why with a calm face?

Director Liu said helplessly: "The media voted, and everyone expected it, and I couldn't help it."

You Mingjie gritted his teeth and was speechless. In the end, he could only go back to the stands in disgrace, thinking about how to "beat" You Le, but when he saw You Le holding the little golden man and smiling brightly, at that moment, he swept away for no reason. With one glance at Yuan Zheng, he felt that his balance had collapsed.

You Mingjie sat back on the chair worriedly, his face darkened.Ye Shuwen glanced at him and asked, "What?"

"I'm very worried." You Mingjie sighed, hesitated again and again, and asked, "If your lover is stronger than you, do you think you can bear this pressure?"

"Yuan Zheng?" Ye Shuwen smiled knowingly and shook his head, "I don't know... If my wife is stronger than me, I might feel very uncomfortable. I want to find my place in this family day and night, but you You know, their situation is different."

"Are you going to be okay?"

"Who are you talking about? You Le or Yuan Zheng? I think Yuan Zheng is fine, he knows what he wants, but I'm more worried about You Le."

You Mingjie raised his eyebrows.

Ye Shuwen said: "I have a friend who is in a competitive relationship with his lover. There is only one No. 1, and every time his lover gets it. proud. But his lover gradually became confused..."

"Ok?"

"He gave up No.1 to my friend at the National Games."

"Huh? Do you play sports?"

"Yeah..." Ye Shuwen recalled, and suddenly smiled, "Then he was punched by my friend, and there was an awkward fight for a long time. In the end, his wife apologized and made a fuss, and he didn't get into the water for several days... "Speaking of this, he stopped abruptly, Ye Shuwen knew that he had talked too much.

You Mingjie is not stupid, although he is not sharp enough, but he still has some taste, muttering: "I learned to swim, my grades are very good, I am still your friend, do I know him?"

Ye Shuwen smiled but said nothing.Those two are cowards, different from this generous pair of post-90s. In China, they hide tightly and dare not come out of the closet. How dare he talk so much.So, Ye Shuwen said again: "In fact, the person who walks in front is also very hard, especially when facing his lover, unless he doesn't love enough, he must be timid. Mingjie, I think we should pay attention to those two people. Personal situation, especially You Yue, you can talk to him at any time."

You Mingjie scratched the back of his head and laughed dumbly: "So, now we not only need to forgive them, but also protect their feelings?"

Ye Shuwen also laughed: "Isn't this what you should do?"

That day, when You Le returned to the house, he collected the statuette and hid it in a box, then went to take a shower and packed it properly before sending Yuan Zheng a text message.

【Want to go out to play at night? 】

You Le pressed the send button, took two deep breaths, squeezed the phone, sat nervously by the bed and stared at Ji Xiangming who didn't know anything until now...
