[Short track speed skating] From academic master to Winter Olympic champion

Gu Ran threw the skate helmet in Chi Lang's arms into Chi Lang's arms, and ran through the crowd in the blink of an eye.

Chi Lang was dumbfounded holding his equipment: "With this speed, why don't you practice sprinting? Maybe you will be the next [-]-meter flying man."

He misunderstood, although Gu Ran can sprint, but there is still an insurmountable gap between the [-]-meter trapeze.He suddenly realized that the long-lost martial arts master Lingbo Weibu was because he saw someone who surprised him.

Like a gust of wind, the little boy came to the table by the window with a "swoosh".

The four of them were chatting while eating, and when he ran over so suddenly, they all turned their heads to look at him.

This includes the head coach of the national youth team Cheng Sen, team leader Yu Jie, physical coach Zhang Yiming, and the new technical director Xu Qing who just got off the plane in the afternoon.

Cheng Sen glared at Gu Ran, and said coldly, "Are you a bit disciplined?"

Gu Ran quickly stood up obediently, and moved a small step to Xu Qing's side: "I was a little excited when I saw Director Xu coming."

Cheng Sen wanted to say something else, but Xu Qing slapped Gu Ran's ass and spoke first: "Go to dinner first, I'll go find you later."

Gu Ran nodded, turned around and ran away again.On the other side, Chi Lang had already put down his equipment, Gao Ziyi prepared the food for them, and Gu Ran sat down and started cooking.

Cheng Sen looked at his back and smiled at Xu Qing: "You are quite protective."

"Must!" Xu Qingqing said naturally, "This is my apprentice, who will I protect if I don't protect him?"

Cheng Sen smiled and said, "Don't worry, the team doctor said that his blood lactic acid level is high recently, I dare not punish him."

Xu Qing raised his eyebrows: "Director Cheng, isn't it time for you to beg someone?"

Cheng Sen buried his head in his meal: "I didn't ask him, I just asked him for a favor. Facts have proved that you won't come even if I'm so talkative. As soon as your precious apprentice comes out, it's only been two weeks, so you will come here gone."

Xu Qing glanced at him and smiled meaningfully: "Director Cheng, you've been calling our leader. They completed the formalities within two days and urged me to report quickly."

"Aren't I afraid that you won't come?"

Xu Qing snorted softly: "You want me to come so much, but you're giving up the head coach's position. There is no achievement at all."

Cheng Sen immediately said, "Let, I will give it to you now."

Xu Qing took a sip of the juice: "It's not rare."

"..."

The two of them said one sentence to another, which sounded like running on each other, but in fact it was the unscrupulous friendship between the brothers and sisters for so many years.The people next to them couldn't get in their mouths, so they could only eat in silence and listen to the two of them fighting each other.

Cheng Sen added: "There is a meeting here in Shanghai recently, and the hotel rooms are all booked. You have to squeeze me in for two days."

Xu Qing didn't take it seriously: "Squeeze, just squeeze. When we went out to compete, when did we not live in the same room?"

That must have happened two years ago, and the contact between the two of them in the past two years was limited to chatting about Gu Ran.Cheng Sen never dared to mention the past in front of him.

Now it seems that he is not shy at all.

Gu Ran was sitting diagonally across from them, she could see Xu Qing's back when she raised her head, and could vaguely hear their conversation.

Seeing Cheng Sen and Xu Qing talking and laughing, he turned his head happily and asked Gao Ziyi in a low voice, "Does this count as a reconciliation?"

This was heard by Chi Lang next to him, and he came over very gossip: "Is there any conflict between them?"

Gu Ran glared at him: "Eat your food, don't inquire about it."

Chi Lang buried his head and continued cooking: "Okay!"

Gao Ziyi smiled gently, and asked Gu Ran: "If I were Director Cheng and you were Director Xu, would you be angry with me?"

"of course not……"

Gu Ran lowered her head and planed a mouthful of white rice.In fact, Xu Qing said that he never blamed Cheng Sen. He blamed himself. What he couldn't let go of was his retirement due to injury at a young age and his lack of a chance to win against the Koreans.

Gu Ran suddenly leaned into Gao Ziyi's ear: "I don't think Director Cheng wants Director Xu to join the National Youth Team, he wants Director Xu to join his team."

Gao Ziyi thought for a while: "What's the difference?"

"some!"

"I'm done eating!" Chi Lang put down his chopsticks and leaned in front of Gu Ran, "Today is Friday, and we can open the dark for an hour at night."

Gu Ran said perfunctorily: "All right, all right, I'll accompany you to the night."

After dinner, Gu Ran read in the room for a while, and then did her homework, while Gao Ziyi carefully sharpened the ice knife beside her.

At [-]:[-], Chi Lang came to his room on time with his mobile phone: "Hurry up, get on the number!"

He was following this person, Ren Yongjie, and smiled at Gu Ran: "I heard that you play the game very well, let's go together."

Gu Ran hesitated for a moment. He really hasn't played a game for a long time, so he can play with them for an hour.So I took out my phone and had to update it first.

A team of three came together.Chi Lang played wild, Ren Yongjie played top laner, and Gu Ran played shooter.

The previous wins were smooth, and after the three-game winning streak, they were matched with very powerful opponents.

In less than 10 minutes, they were almost pushed home.

Gu Ran played a shooter with no self-protection ability, so she could only follow the group.Chi Lang was still making money in the wild area. There was a wave of lines in the bottom lane, and Ren Yongjie ran to clear it.

Gu Ran glanced at the economic panel, then looked again, and suddenly shouted: "Brother, be careful, there are people in the bushes!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ren Yongjie instinctively took a step back. At this moment, four burly men suddenly rushed out of the grass, all of their skills greeted him.

Fortunately, he took a step back just now and avoided the key control.But the firepower on the other side was fierce, and his half-meat outfit couldn't hold it.At the critical moment, Gu Ran arrived with a mage and assistants, and Chi Lang also bagged him from the wild area, and played a wave of beautiful zero-for-five.

"Beautiful!" Ren Yongjie escaped to the extreme, and shouted excitedly, "Amazing, amazing, amazing, Gu Ran, you are too amazing!"

Chi Lang often plays games with Gu Ran, and he has long been used to his amazing operations.But it was the first time for Ren Yongjie to ask curiously, "How do you know there are people in the grass?"

Gu Ran explained to him: "There is no enemy's vision on the map. I just looked at the economic panel. Everyone's economy on the opposite side is in a state of natural growth, which means that no one is in the wild. At this time, only the bottom lane has soldiers coming. Let's There is only half blood left in the Highland Tower, and someone will definitely go there to clear it, so I guess they must all lie in ambush in the grass and catch them alone."

Ren Yongjie's back felt chills when he heard it, and he broke into a cold sweat for the other person.

Players in the passer-by game open the economic panel to look at equipment, head count, and economic gap. Who is so free to remember the economic growth of the other party? There are still five people, and they can't remember it.

There was only shock left on Ren Yongjie's face: "Professional players are like this, it's amazing!"

Gu Ran waved her hand modestly: "I just subconsciously remember what I saw."

"Hey! It's quite lively." At this time, Xu Qing walked in from the outside.He saw Gao Ziyi who was sharpening his ice skates at a glance, and then looked at the three of them, all of them held their mobile phones with their heads down, and quickly tapped the screen with their thumbs.

Gu Ran said: "Chi Dali, hurry up and fight the dragon, so we can go to the high ground."

"Bring the line up!"

"Carry the tower, carry the tower, order the crystal!"

"Win win win win!!!"

Xu Qing heard it, the two senior brothers next to him were in charge of action, and Gu Ran was in charge of commanding.

"Cough..." Director Xu cleared his throat, startling the three of them, Gu Ran and Chi Lang stood up reflexively, and hid their phones behind them, "Director Xu."

Xu Qing looked at them kindly: "Busy?"

As the oldest team member, Ren Yongjie is naturally calmer than the two younger juniors: "It's not Friday, I will take them to relax. There is still training tomorrow, so it's time to go back and rest."

With that said, he took Chi Lang to the door, and closed the door for them intimately.

Playing games during the break, Xu Qing would not say anything.He just finished a meeting with the coaching staff, and now he came to see some of his players.

Liang Kexin is a girl, and she lives in the same room with female members of other teams. It is not convenient for him to go at this time, so he came to see Gao Ziyi and Gu Ran.

He pulled a stool and sat down, and asked Gu Ran: "It's been half a month, how do you feel?"

Gu Ran grinned at him: "I feel that you and Director Cheng are worthy of being brothers, dear!"

Xu Qing raised his eyebrows: "How to say?"

"Treat the team members like livestock."

Xu Qing nodded: "I will report this question to Director Cheng in a while."

Gu Ran panicked when she heard this, quickly took a bottle of mineral water, unscrewed the cap and handed it over graciously: "Actually, you didn't hear anything, it was just a hallucination."

Gao Ziyi smiled at the side: "This little training is nothing to Xiaoran. He also trains himself every day."

Xu Qing took the mineral water, took a sip, and was very satisfied with his apprentice's filial piety: "I heard that the lactic acid increased after practicing, and almost scared Director Cheng to death."

Gu Ran spread out her hands: "It's just right, now I can be lazy."

Xu Qing stood up and walked out: "Lie down and start dreaming."

When he reached the door, he turned around again and asked, "By the way, have you run 5000 meters in 20 minutes?"

Gu Ran was taken aback when he heard it. He hadn't run 5000 meters for a long time: "I can't run 20 minutes in my life. If I can, I'll practice long-distance running."

Xu Qing smiled and said, "Let's practice triathlon."

Gu Ran: "..."

When Xu Qing arrived at the National Youth Team, his face immediately changed.Always standing aside, looking at everyone kindly.Give everyone careful technical guidance, take them to analyze the route, and carry out awareness training.

Let Cheng Sen do all the swearing, and the hatred of the team members was held firmly by him alone.

In Province J before, although Xu Qing told everyone that they would be fined, he was relentless.But that's only for the men's team. He is still very partial to the girls of the women's team. Whether it's bed inspection or punishment, he will show mercy.

Cheng Sen was different. He attacked indiscriminately. Girls would still be scolded if they didn't do well. Not only would they be scolded, but they would also be punished.

In this way, the two coaches cooperated, one singing the red face and the other singing the bad face, torturing a group of teenagers to exhaustion physically and mentally, making them miserable.

After another week or so, the competition was getting closer and closer, and the training intensity was gradually reduced, and everyone was relieved.

Before, the high lactic acid content in Gu Ran's blood had aroused Cheng Sen's vigilance. He not only adjusted a training plan for him alone, but also asked a nutritionist to formulate a diet for him. He strictly followed the diet every day, The team doctor gave him muscle relaxation after training every night.

Chi Lang likes admiring Gu Ran's expression when he relaxes his muscles the most, and he can get a kind of happiness from adults bullying children, but he is often beaten violently by several senior sisters in turn, because the junior brother is their favorite, so he can't be treated by Chi Dali. Bad boy bullying.

On the other side, Meng Yuqiao sat silently by the bed, waiting for muscle relaxation.After everyone left happily, he suddenly said to Gu Ran: "It seems that God is fair."

Gu Ran is enjoying the sour feeling brought by pushing and rubbing the calf muscles. After a long time, she can really feel a little refreshment from that unparalleled soreness.

Hearing his words, he turned his head and asked, "What do you mean?"

Meng Yuqiao said: "The old man opened a 360° panoramic skylight and floor-to-ceiling windows for you, and he didn't forget to build a wall for you."

Gu Ran was amused, and his attention was a little off: "I didn't expect you to be joking."

"I'm not joking," Meng Yuqiao praised him from head to toe, "You are smart, well-proportioned, with excellent flexibility, balance and joint flexibility, and good explosive power. What's rare is that you work hard and self-discipline."

"It doesn't have to be short-track speed skating. Many sports have something in common. You will definitely achieve results if you practice other things. However, you also have the same natural weakness-poor muscle tolerance and easy fatigue."

Gu Ran is very optimistic: "Then I can often be lazy."

Unexpectedly, Meng Yuqiao suddenly smiled, and the corners of his lips were slightly hooked, but he was good-looking, with a slightly feminine feminine side, this smile was quite amazing.

Meng Yuqiao suddenly stretched out her hand and patted the top of his head: "I mean, you are easy to get hurt, so be more careful."

The team doctor interjected: "Big Joe is right. Excessive muscle fatigue can easily lead to strains. Be careful."

When it came to the National Youth Team, even Cheng Sen called Meng Yuqiao Da Qiao, and the others followed suit.

Gu Ran smiled and said, "Thank you, Da Qiao, for your concern."

Meng Yuqiao said, "Brother."

"Thank you, Senior Brother Qiao."

"..."

In fact, they can chat quite well, because among the dozen or so members of the national youth team, others have graduated from junior high school and started to attend technical secondary schools in the Physical Education Institute. Go to college.

Only Meng Yuqiao, who skated from the club, is still in high school like Gu Ran.

However, Meng Yuqiao is in her third year of high school this year and will be taking the college entrance examination next month.

His classmates are all making the final sprint, while he is suspending training to prepare for the game.

During the rest time on Sunday afternoon, Gu Ran would study the questions with him.Meng Yuqiao studied liberal arts, and the discussion between the two of them was limited to language and mathematics.

When Gu Ran talked to him about a fixed English collocation, Meng Yuqiao said in surprise: "If I remember correctly, you are only in the first year of high school."

Gu Ran smiled and said: "This has nothing to do with Gaoji, it all depends on accumulation."

Two people study together, and the topic of learning and learning will be biased towards short track speed skating.Gu Ran will talk about some of his small and technical insights in training.Meng Yuqiao nodded in empathy: "I have actually paid attention to what you mentioned."

If Gu Ran mentioned this to Chi Lang, the other party would just say, "Really, I didn't even notice."

"..."

Although Meng Yuqiao lived in the same room as Ren Yongjie, the two really had nothing in common.

When resting, Ren Yongjie often went to Liu Fei's three-person room and left the room for Meng Yuqiao to review.

When he came back, he often saw Gu Ran here, so he joked, "You two have more conversations, you should live in the same room."

Meng Yuqiao glanced at Gu Ran, who lowered his head and did several fill-in-the-blank questions in a short while.The long eyelashes are flickering, very focused.

He didn't answer, knowing that Gu Ran was unwilling.

It's not that Gu Ran doesn't want to share a room with Meng Yuqiao, it's just that compared to Meng Yuqiao, he prefers to share a room with his senior brother Gao.

Brother Xiao Gao was so kind to him, helping him cook and sharpen his ice skates, how could he be willing to separate from Senior Brother Xiao Gao.

Just before departure, they had their last in-team test.The performance of each team member has increased more or less. Even Liu Fei and Ren Yongjie, two old players who have entered a stable state, have made a breakthrough in performance. This is good news for them to enter the national team next .

But Cheng Sen is obviously dissatisfied with this. They are 19 years old this year, and this result is not enough to compete with strong opponents in the adult arena.

It was Gu Ran's performance that surprised both Cheng Sen and Xu Qing.

The two looked down at the stopwatch, and looked up at each other at the same time, seeing the same thing in each other's eyes.
