Almighty Athlete Chapter 358: Trials

Whether the participating countries, the number of participants and the degree of attention of the Winter Olympics are far inferior to the Summer Olympics.

The projects of the Winter Olympics are all ice and snow projects, so these countries that are relatively close to the equator are basically impossible to participate in the Winter Olympics, such as the vast majority of African countries, Caribbean countries, and Pacific island countries in Oceania. I have never seen snow in my entire life, and it can be said that it is completely missed from the winter project.

In the Summer Olympic Games, almost all countries in the world will participate. Even if it is the effect of tens of thousands of people, it will send one or two athletes to come. In the Winter Olympic Games, it is good to have ten countries to participate. At the end of the last century, there were about two or three thousand talented athletes in the Winter Olympics, and there are currently about three or four thousand athletes. Although the number has increased, it is still only a fraction of the number of participants in the Summer Olympics.

The qualifications for the Winter Olympics are also easier to obtain than the Summer Games. The admission tickets for many items in the Summer Games are precious, and the admission tickets for many items in the Winter Olympics may only take a few months. Training can be obtained, many athletes participating in the Winter Olympics are amateur athletes. As long as your country is willing to sign up for some projects, you will have the opportunity to participate in the Winter Olympics.

At one Olympics, Tonga, a Pacific island country, wanted to participate, but Tonga was located near the equator, and there was no snow at all throughout the year. The King of Tonga even offered a reward throughout the country. There was no one to call for skiers. Found, Tonga finally chose a person to send to foreign countries for training for half a year, fulfilled the dream of Tongan people to participate in the Winter Olympics. A person born in Tonga who has only trained for half a year can participate in the Winter Olympics, which is enough to show that the threshold for the Winter Olympics is not high.

Athletes who are amateurs or quasi-professionals participate in the Winter Olympics. They are determined to participate, and athletes who are truly capable of competing for medals are also professional-level players. So it can often be seen that the Winter Olympic Games are divided into two groups AB. Group A is a professional level with a relatively high level, which is to compete for medals, while Group B is a non-professional level with a relatively low level, even if it takes To the first group B also missed the medal.

The qualifications for the short track speed skating event are calculated by country/region. The qualified country can send three people to participate in the short track speed skating competition, and if it is qualified for the relay race, it can send five Individual competition. It's just that the short track speed skating project is tossing and turning, that is, those countries are playing, so basically every country participating is relatively fixed. And short track speed skating has only four events, 500m, 1000m, 1500m plus a relay, so many contestants are required to participate in three events at the same time, even if all four events are normal Situation.

The national team has already qualified for the Vancouver Winter Olympics short track speed skating relay race, so it can send five players to participate. Five men and women, a total of ten players participate in the short track speed skating event. As for who will be sent to participate, of course, the Winter Sports Center said.

The reason why Zhang Guan proposed to participate in the short track speed skating project is that this project does not need to be eligible for additional participation. Now there are still two months left before the opening of the Winter Olympics. It is difficult to participate in other projects. I won again. For short track speed skating, Zhang Guan can participate if you know that the Winter Sports Center will nod and agree.

At the same time, Zhang Guan doing so also put the Winter Sports Center into a dilemma.

......

Director Wang of the Winter Sports Center didn’t expect that Zhang Guan’s counterattack came so fast, he just returned from the body of the front foot, and there was a call from the body of the back foot to ask the Zhang Guan for participation opinion.

Meeting room. Director Wang summoned several major leaders.

"Zhang Guan asked us for a short track speed skating entry. Let's talk about your views." Director Wang glanced at everyone in the meeting room.

"It must not be given to him! Let me say, this Zhang Guan is specially designed to add chaos to us. The incident (love qíng) he made a few days ago has made our work very passive. Now there is a short track speed skating entry? Isn’t this a measure of incompetence? Is it true that he thinks our winter sports center is bullying?" A very angry guy said first.

"But if we don't give the Zhang Guan quota, will it make our sense? People said Zhang Guan, but if he goes, he will definitely get a gold medal, and he dares to make a "war order".

"Zhang Guan bragging, do you really believe it? He is not a skater. I am afraid he will not even wear skates. Can he participate in short track speed skating? On flat ground, he runs very fast, but on the ice, I don’t believe he can break the world record!"

"I don’t know if I’m not bragging, but old Li, don’t forget, we just gave the general plan, but erased the original three gold medal goals. Then Zhang Guan Now, to help the national team earn these three gold medals, can we not let him go?"

"He said that if he can earn the gold medal back, can he really earn it back? That's the gold medal in the Winter Olympics, not the Chinese cabbage on the street." Lao Li said.

"Okay, let’s not give him the quota. When the Winter Olympics arrive, if the results are not satisfactory, who should bear this responsibility?"

"Don’t you discuss this issue before, and the results are not satisfactory, so I pushed it to this personnel change. The personnel change was caused by the Zhang Guan going to the anti-corruption bureau. He was so troublesome, so he was let This black pot!" Lao Li continued.

"That was before, now we can't find such an excuse myself. People Zhang Guan have already offered to go to the Winter Olympics to win gold, and to help us solve difficulties, it depends on whether we give him the opportunity. Didn’t you see that he is mainly anti-guest. If our performance in the Winter Olympics is not satisfactory, Zhang Guan can say that he proposed to help us win gold in the winter sports center before the game, but we will not give him the opportunity to let him He took part in the competition and could not rely on him if he lost. By then, it became our own responsibility."

"Then give him a quota, I don’t believe that he really has the ability to get the gold medal! He also made a military order, and I see how he stepped down!"

"That’s not okay, we only have five places in total, how can we waste one place on his (body shēn). Zhang Guan is obviously bragging, short-track speed skating looks at a sport of technology, How can we get to the field in a few years of hard work? Director Wang, the four-year Winter Olympics, can we make such a hasty decision!" Someone immediately objected.

The person who opposes is the leader of the Skating Association. Short track speed skating is the project of the Skating Association, so of course he does not want Zhang Guan to take up a valuable place. And short-track speed skating is the strength of the national team. So many excellent athletes are crowded to participate in the four-year Winter Olympics. How can the leaders of the ice association be willing to give Zhang Guan a place.

"I see, Zhang Guan guessed that we would not give him this quota, so he was so fearless."

"Give me nothing, give me nothing, what can I do? Zhang Guan~IndoMTL.com~ really makes us in a dilemma!"

"Director Wang, I have a suggestion." Suddenly someone said: "We might as well try a trial and let Zhang Guan also participate. Isn't he saying that he can win gold at the Winter Olympics? If even our national team Athletes can't win, I see what other face he has against us!"

"This is a good idea. It's a mule or a horse. It's a good idea for our national team guys to teach this little boy!"

"I don't think the men's team is necessary, the women's team can win him, ha ha ha..."

However, the old Li suddenly splashed cold water: "You said, what if Zhang Guan won in the trial? After all, it is five places, he doesn't need to take the first place, take the third or fourth place, You have the qualification to represent the national team."

"Win? How is it possible to win! Lao Li, I think you are confused. That's short-track speed skating. You think you are running 100 meters, as long as you run fast! Short-track speed skating is technical. The requirements are very high. Even if Zhang Guan can slide two times, it can never have the ability to fight. Moreover, Zhang Guan is not a Northeastern. Their province does not even have ice skating. Zhang Guan has no chance of contacting short track speed skating. As long as he dares to participate in the qualifying tournament, he will lose!"
