Chapter 987 System stubborn disease, World Championships trials begin(1/2)
Ersha Island.
During the preparations for the World Championships, Su Shen would not go to school anymore, so he focused on training and prepared for the competition well.
At this time, there are actually things that make Yu Weili worried.
Yu Weili came to Ersha Island for inspection and felt that there was no problem at all, which made him feel relieved.
But you can see that Yu Feili still had a lot of worry on his face.
This is because one of the biggest competitive contradictions in our country: the contradiction between the National Games and the World Championships.
Not only this life, but also before the previous life, there were media reports that some track and field athletes were not very enthusiastic about participating in the World Championships in preparation for the National Games that were unveiled in November. This is a chronic problem that has not been resolved for a long time. Over the years, there have been a trend of giving up the World Championships in order to preserve the National Games. It has been reported that although the Berlin World Championships is approaching, since this year is the National Games year, some domestic athletes are not very enthusiastic about participating in the World Championships, and some players even gave up participating in the National Games.
Although the official said that there is no such problem, all provinces and cities have a deeper understanding of the national system and support for the national team. There is no fundamental contradiction between the National Games and the World Championships, and the National Games will not be affected by the World Championships. But you can see that if there is no impact, why issue a notice that the top 8 players in the World Championships will receive several places to participate in the National Games.
Isn’t it because I am not very motivated to keep the National Games?
In order to preserve strength before the National Games, some teams either adopt a "avoid" attitude towards the World Championships or decline politely on the grounds that athletes have injuries, and some even deliberately remind players to keep a "low-key" before the National Games so that they can do their best in the National Games.
"Didn't the coach Feng say it well at the press conference? Why are you frowning?" Yuan Guoqiang looked at his former teacher and asked.
"It's not that thing." Yu Weili shook his head, with a helpless look on his face.
"The Preservation Games give up the World Championship?" Yuan Guoqiang understood in a flash. After all, he was also a person from the system and was very clear about the twists and turns in the system.
"That's right." Yu Jie's strength was.
"Isn't there an incentive policy coming out this time?" Yuan Guoqiang said.
“Difficult.”
"And it's useless." Yu Weili smiled bitterly: "The World Championship champion will receive five National Games quotas, and the fourth to eighth will also receive one more National Games quota. It sounds beautiful, but how many people can fulfill it, so since it can't be fulfilled, it's better not to."
"At present, this decision is difficult to really play a practical role in the provinces and municipal sports bureaus."
Yuan Guoqiang didn't say much, just nodded silently because he knew very well that this was a situation that could not be changed in a short period of time.
Is the level of the National Games or the level of the World Championships? This should not be a problem. One is a national event and the other is a world event. From the competitive perspective, the World Championships represent the world's top level in this event, but there is some paradox that many provinces are more willing to let their players focus on the National Games rather than the World Championships. Less than a month from the end of the World Championships to the National Games, coupled with the journey, will greatly affect the performance of national team players in the National Games. One is to do their best, and the other is to wait for the effort. It is hard to say who gains and who loses at the National Games.
Of course, to put it bluntly, it is still a matter of interest.
In fact, people in the sports circle know that the awards of the National Games that are every four years are not comparable to those of the World Championships, and are even more valued locally than those of the Olympics - because many events have no chance to win cards in the Olympics, but there are still opportunities for their own people to fight in the National Games to win gold medals.
On the ranking of important sports events in my country, the Olympics are undoubtedly the first forever, and the second place may be the National Games. The reason is very simple. The Olympics are to win glory for the country, and the National Games are to win glory for the local area. The Olympics and National Games medals will be directly included in the quantitative assessment goals of the General Administration and local sports bureaus, and are directly related to promotion, bonus allocation and adjustment of key events. Athletes win an Olympic gold medal, and the total prizes of national, local and enterprises are several million, and the award for winning a National Games gold medal is only slightly lower than the Olympic standards, and in some cases even higher than the Olympic standards. In contrast, the results in international events such as the World Championships, World Cups, and Tennis Grand Slams are also difficult to be included in the assessment of local sports departments. When the National Games and the World Championships and professional competitions conflict, it is clear what choices each local sports bureau will make.
‘Be at ease, don’t get hurt.’
This statement has also become a "black words" and "code words" for selections in the National Games and World Championships.
In fact, other countries also have their own "National Games", and it is normal for athletes to weigh the pros and cons.
After all, the national honors can be won and the World Championship fails, which may represent the future distribution and bonus issues.
It is normal for athletes to think about their careers in a short period of time.
Therefore, if you want to change, you still have to change the essence. For example, in addition to the Olympic Games, the National Games medals will be directly included in the quantitative assessment goals of the General Administration and local sports bureaus, and directly related to promotion, bonus allocation and adjustment of key projects, the remaining World Championships and international competitions must also be included in the standards, even higher, and learn how to take into account both abroad.
Otherwise, this "stubborn disease" will probably be like this in more than ten years.
"Fortunately, your Ersha Island is still stable, otherwise, coach Feng and I will have a headache." Seeing Ersha Island's active preparations, Yu Weili still felt much more relieved.
"We still have no problem." Yuan Guoqiang said: "Basically, the country has swept, and the goals and ambitions of their athletes have never been in China. They are not even in Asia."
"Ersha Island really brings out a group of people." Yu Weili said: "Anyway, popular events are pretty good, and it doesn't matter if you can't win gold medals. People also know how valuable the medals in popular events are. In order to ensure the rest, let's guarantee the rest. There is no other way. The domestic popularity of the World Championships has always been incomparable to the National Games. I can't force others. Everyone has their own considerations. You can do more work."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "In terms of welfare, I will help you and the General Administration try their best to make the battle well."
"Of course." Yuan Guoqiang nodded and said, "Even if I don't let them go, these little guys won't agree."
"Hahahaha." Yu Weili laughed: "This is right."
"Come on, although I think you are already taking over Ersha Island."
...
The World Championship Trials began in early July.
The trial competition was held in Yangcheng.
Maybe it's because the Asian Championships will be held in Yangcheng, China at the end of the year.
Just think it was practiced in advance.
At the entrance of the main venue, there is a large circular square of about 1,500 square meters, with a wide space and convenient for people to gather. The main venue has a total construction area of 39,635 square meters, a maximum longitudinal span of 160 meters and a maximum horizontal span of 110 meters. The auditorium in the hall has a total of 24 small and small private rooms, 10,018 regular seats, including 654 VIP seats, 5,044 fixed seats, and about 4,320 movable seats. With the added aisle, it can accommodate about 20,000 people.
Although it is not comparable to the bird's nest, it is still very good in the past 2009.
Just this year, more than ten solo concerts of Chinese superstars have been held.
It is hard to say that the people from Ersha Island are very familiar with this gymnasium, and they can even be called their home court.
It is also very convenient to come here. They are all in Yangcheng, and you can raise your energy and attack.
It can be seen that in order to host the Asian Championships and next year's Asian Games, the venue has actually been upgraded again, and it looks more grand and grand than the Yangcheng Stadium I saw before.
"I didn't expect that Yangcheng Stadium was built so beautifully." Zhou Bing touched his head and said, "It looks much more impressive than before."
"Look at this track, it's obviously newly laid, and it feels very touching."
"If it was like this before, I would definitely be able to run a little better."
"That's impossible." Zhao Haohuan ruthlessly said: "You only have that much strength, and it won't change much due to the renovation of the venue. It's better to improve your strength honestly."
When Zhou Bing suffocated, he saw that it was Zhao Haohuan, and immediately stubbornly said, "How arrogant are you! I am also a qualified player in the OW competition now, I am not much worse than you."
"You?" Zhao Haohuan was almost speaking out after hearing this, and said, "You'd better forget it. I have a certificate. Do you have one?"
"I..." Zhou Bing had nothing to say, because the certificate means that you have entered the top eight.
The first eight will only have a certificate.
Non-finals players, there will be no.
"I will have it in the future!" Zhou Bing said angrily.
"Then let's talk about it later." Zhao Haohuan said lightly.
"Okay, don't forget to unite." Su Shen said laughing and crying: "This is a camera. Although you just come to get familiar with the venue, there are still so many people watching it. Don't give them a chance to make big news."
After saying that, Su Shen also clicked around, as if telling them that many eyes were staring at them.
Don't think this is still Ersha Island.
If you have any problems, you can do whatever you want when you go back and close the door.
There is no problem with the venue adaptation, and the refurbished venue is more comfortable. Although it is not the best high-speed track, it is much more comfortable than the old tracks before, with much elasticity and grip.
This time, the people on Ersha Island will probably break the head in order to grab the quota.
Even if you can't get a single quota, you still want to get a substitute or relay quota.
After all, Ersha Island is a place where those who can live.
If not.
Even Su Shen himself would come down.
However, the one that attracts the most attention is Liu Xiang.
Will Liu Xiang come to participate?
After participating in a gold game, Liu Xiang scored 13.24s, 0.1M/S against the wind, which can be regarded as continuing to refresh his season SB. However, in this game, Liu Xiang obviously did not use all his strength and did not push the line in the end.
I ran along like this and ran for 13.24s. Although I couldn't win the championship in this score, I also got the third place.
Get a bronze medal.
Although not many stars have come in this game, being able to continue to win the top three in the Golden League is also a recognition of Liu Xiang's attitude and physical condition.
This National Games may be the first game after Liu Xiang’s recovery from a close look at the domestic media.
Before, Liu Xiang was competing abroad. Seeing that it was true, whether he could do it depends on whether Liu Xiang could run the first shot in China well.
Faced with this problem, Liu Xiang's junior brother, Xie Wenjun, who will also participate in the selection competition this time, said in the face of the camera: "Brother Xiang's strength has definitely returned to the top level in Asia now, but he still needs to stimulate the top opponents."
"But even so, I still think that no one in China or even in Asia is a rival to Brother Xiang."
Sun Haiping himself deliberately avoided this issue. With the lesson from 2008, he no longer dared to speak casually, for fear that he would say something wrong and do something wrong.
As for Liu Xiang himself, he did not accept an interview publicly, only one sentence left: See you on the court.
This attitude has also caused many people in China to speculate. Some say that Liu Xiang's injury has not been cured yet, some say that Liu Xiang is bluffing again, or that he is starting to be mysterious again. But only Liu Xiang himself knows that although he has not yet recovered to his best top state, he can recover to this level so quickly and even participate in the World Championships. He is already quite satisfied.
As for the results.
He really didn't think much about it.
According to his opinion, if you don’t run around 13 seconds in this final, you can’t get a gold medal, right? With Robles there, it’s better to lower your expectations.
With this mentality.
The trial competition kicked off the next day.
If you can compete in the country, you can actually not say that Liu Xiang is looking forward to it.
To be continued...
