From 47.58 to 50.74, 49.89, and then to 47.63 in the fourth test which should have been very tiring in theory, the fluctuations in the results between these four times forced everyone to take it seriously.
Judging from the results of these four times, there is no need to doubt Qiu Wen’s talent in the 400-meter race. But what is the reason that caused such huge fluctuations in Qiu Wen’s results in these four tests?
The moment Zhao Heping saw Qiu Wen's results, he began to think about what the differences were between Qiu Wen's four tests... Then, after a brief review, he turned his attention from Qiu Wen to Su Bai.
"...Master?" Su Bai noticed Zhao Heping's gaze and turned to look at his master.
Looking at his apprentice's calm face, Zhao Heping sighed and shook his head: "You kid..."
If it was true as he thought, that the ups and downs of Qiu Wen's test scores were completely affected by Su Bai, then Su Bai was truly amazing.
Just imagine, this is a guy who can observe from Qiu Wen's daily training status that Qiu Wen has the potential to run 400 meters, and who can, without Qiu Wen having any training foundation, rely on pre-match explanations and the inculcation of some small tricks to enable Qiu Wen to directly run a national athlete level result in the 400-meter test?
You want to tell others that this person is not the sprint coach of their track and field team, but the chef in the cafeteria's kitchen?
Whenever Zhao Heping thought of Su Bai's actual identity and the coaching talent he showed today, he suddenly felt his head go bald.
Su Bai hadn't thought about this problem yet. He was just very happy that Qiu Wen was able to regain his composure in the final round of tests.
To put it bluntly, although the skill of technical guidance of the Sand Sculpture System can indeed play a certain role, if the player himself does not have sufficient willpower and endurance, if the player himself lacks sufficient talent, then even with his technical guidance, the improvement of the player's performance will be limited.
Qiu Wen was able to achieve this result today, in addition to his technical guidance that allowed Qiu Wen to stabilize the most critical 400-meter segment rhythm arrangement, Qiu Wen's own talent determined the upper limit of his performance. Qiu Wen's years of persistent training and his personal willpower, determination, etc., also determined whether he could understand Su Bai's needs in a practical way and implement them in place.
This time, the two 400-meter test results given by Qiu Wen can indeed be said to be the best results of the cooperation between Qiu Wen and Su Bai.
After Qiu Wen ran a time of around 47.60 seconds for the second time, the depression he had felt in the previous two tests was swept away. After he stopped to buffer his steps, he put his hands on his waist, raised his head and let out a long sigh.
He can, he has no problem!
Qiu Wen first told himself this happily in his heart, and then his eyes were filled with expectations and prospects for the future - this was just the result he had achieved before he had any special 400-meter training. If...
He meant that if he gave it his all and quickly got into training for the 400-meter event, then after a period of time, what kind of results would he be able to achieve?
Open the 46-second level and run under 45 seconds? Or...will he have the chance, like Fang Yu, to break the 45-second barrier that no Chinese has ever broken, run into the 44-second world, and compete with the world's top 400-meter runners?
Just thinking about this, Qiu Wen felt his blood boiling and he felt like he could run another 40,000 meters right away!
Of course, he didn't have any time to continue being so excited. Zhao Heping saw that he was still in a daze at the finish line, so he called him to his side with a lion's roar.
Qiu Wen touched his ears which had a slight tinnitus, then ran happily to Zhao Heping and Su Bai.
"Coach, Xiaobai!" Qiu Wen's eyes were sparkling again this time, and it was obvious that he was still in an excited mood.
Zhao Heping ignored his excitement and said simply, "Tell me how you felt about this test just now."
Qiu Wen understood that this was to analyze the reasons why his results were different from before. He scratched his head and carefully recalled the differences between the fourth round of tests and the previous two rounds.
"Well, I felt that... during the second and third rounds of testing, I really didn't know how to run. Although you gave me instructions, I had never practiced 400 meters before. I had no idea what stride and rhythm I should use at what time. In the second round, I remember that after I finished the 200-meter run, I was exhausted. When Dawei and Hu Li caught up with me, I really wanted to overtake them, but I just couldn't. I felt like I was being led by them..."
“Although there was a timer for the splits in the third round, I don’t know why, but I just couldn’t find the same feeling as in the first round. I felt unsure when I ran, and it was a mess… I just felt suffocated and uncomfortable.”
Qiu Wen's words were very simple and easy to understand. Translated, they were the reasons that Zhao Heping and other assistant coaches knew: they had never practiced 400 meters, lacked awareness of the 400-meter segment speed, lacked a relaxed running state, and lacked a sense of rhythm for the 400 meters.
Zhao Heping frowned again: "What about the fourth round?"
Qiu Wen scratched his head again: "I don't think anything has changed in the fourth round. Xiaobai gave me two rhythms. He told me that after running 200 meters, if I feel tired, I can use the first one, and if I am not tired anymore, I can use the second one. Then he told me to increase my stride and not to run 100 or 200 meters..."
Zhao Heping was choked by these words. When Su Bai was explaining these things to Qiu Wen, he was standing by. Of course, he knew what Su Bai had said to this silly boy. The key point was, "How could you remember everything he said?"
Qiu Wen was stunned by this question: "Well, anyway, when I was on the track at first, I can always remember what Xiao Bai said."
Zhao Heping looked at Qiu Wen suspiciously: "What about now?"
"...I forgot everything." Qiu Wen looked embarrassed when he said this, but he found that he could not tell the difference between the two rhythms Xiaobai taught him.
Zhao Heping felt a headache when he saw his silly look, and finally he had no choice but to wave his hand and said to him: "Okay, you can train normally first. I have already got the test results, and you don't have to worry about the rest."
When Qiu Wen heard this, he did not leave immediately, but looked at his coach eagerly.
Zhao Heping frowned: "What's wrong?"
"Coach, what about my changing sport...?"
"That's enough." Zhao Heping frowned. "What are you afraid of with your results? We can't stop training now. Wait for notification for the rest."
After hearing what Zhao Heping said, Qiu Wen's face broke into a huge smile, he said "eh" loudly, then turned around and ran away happily.
Looking at the appearance of this stupid disciple, Zhao Heping was filled with anger.
Of course, there was another guy who made him sigh even more - Su Bai.
Zhao Heping looked back and saw Su Bai, who was still unaware of anything. He even looked at Qiu Wen's back as he left for training with a slight smile on his face. He seemed to be in a good mood.
Well, there is another troublesome thing here!
At this moment, Zhao Heping really felt that each and every one of his disciples was a debt, and they were all here to do evil and cause him a headache.
"Alright, alright, what are you still laughing about? Xiaolin, Xiaozhao, you two should keep an eye on these guys' training first. I'll come over to check it out later." Zhao Heping frowned and turned to glare at Su Bai: "Su Bai, come with me!"
?
? ? ?
Su Bai didn't know how he had made his master angry, so he immediately followed his master all the way back to his office, then sat on the chair in the office and listened to his master scolding him.
"What are you capable of, kid? You were thinking about retiring before. Okay, no problem. I raised you as my master. I can't bear to see my disciple struggling for a living and bring you to me, Old Sun."
"But don't you know in your heart that I want to lead you to the path of coaching? Otherwise, why didn't I suggest you to study sports training? Yes, your performance is not suitable for you to retire and directly join the team as an assistant coach, but you have the ability, why didn't you say so earlier?!"
"You can see Qiu Wen's potential at a glance. How long have you been observing him? The technical guidance for the 400 meters, the accurate prediction of his performance and condition, plus your on-the-spot technical guidance are quite strong. It's amazing that Qiu Wen can remember what you said!"
"One is that he was able to run under 47.60 seconds in his first 400-meter test, and the other is that he has a sharp eye, and he also has the ability to coach and give on-the-spot tactical instructions to athletes. If you had said this to me 10 days earlier, would we have lost one more assistant coach position in our sprint team?!"
Zhao Heping became angrier and angrier as he spoke. He felt that each of his disciples was a cause of worry to him, and it made him so angry that his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys ached.
Especially when thinking about Su Bai’s current position in the team - chef on the third floor of the cafeteria.
Well, this is a cook who is famous throughout the provincial team. The coaching staff of the track and field team even plan to eat on the third floor of the cafeteria.
When he thought of this, Zhao Heping's head started to hurt even more.
Tell me, how could he have such a stupid apprentice?
Su Bai was scolded all over and finally understood what his master was angry about. However, he was also embarrassed. After all, the Stupid System only appeared after he submitted his retirement application, and at the beginning, the Stupid System did not have so many coach-related functions.
But he couldn't say it out loud after all, and from the external appearance, it was obvious that he had this ability for a long time, but he didn't say it out loud.
Su Bai sat upright on the chair and took the scolding obediently. After thinking for a while, he tried to comfort his master: "...Master, well, I did a pretty good job in the kitchen..."
That's it!
How can it be bad? !
Not to mention others, Zhao Heping himself was craving for the food cooked by Su Bai, and so many team members and players even had a certain improvement in their training status because of this incredible reason of eating delicious food.
This sensational incident, which alarmed the entire provincial track and field coaching staff and even led to athletes being taken for doping tests, undoubtedly proved that Su Bai's cooking skills were indeed amazing.
It is precisely because of this that Zhao Heping feels that all these things are even more troublesome.
If he now suggested to the coaching staff to transfer Su Bai to the team, those coaches would not know what to think. Even if they used Su Bai's record of discovering Qiu Wen and Su Bai's on-the-spot guidance of Qiu Wen, it would be much more difficult to transfer Su Bai than when Su Bai's cooking skills were unknown.
Not to mention anything else, if Su Bai quits working for the food on the third floor of the cafeteria, how will the athletes on the team's key list react?
Thinking of this, Zhao Heping glared angrily at his innocent-looking disciple again, and then felt deeply that he was not far from middle-aged hair loss.
In the end, Zhao Heping couldn't think of any good ideas for a while, and Su Bai saw that it was almost time to prepare his dinner, so he cautiously suggested going back to the cafeteria first.
After being glared at by his master a few more times, Su Bai was able to escape, slipped out of Zhao Heping's coaching office, and returned to the kitchen.
After his apprentice left, Zhao Heping sulked for a while, then packed up Qiu Wen's stack of historical training materials and several test results from this afternoon, and went to the office of He Yishen, the head coach of the track and field team.
Su Bai, who had returned to the kitchen earlier and was about to wash up, change clothes and prepare dinner, received a new message from Sun Xiangdong.
"Huh? Do you want to prepare more dishes tonight?"
"Oh, isn't it?" Sun Xiangdong shook his head. "Isn't the team determined to improve its performance this year? So, the team invited several coaches from the national team to come to our team to provide guidance for a few days. Originally, they were planning to take the national team coaches out for a good meal, but Lao He remembered your cooking skills and said that there was no need to go out specially. The meals for these national team coaches will be covered for you. They will have their first meal tonight, and the director of our provincial team and other leaders will also come with them."
After a pause, Sun Xiangdong smiled and said, "Work hard, kid. I think Lao He and the others have been thinking about you. Let them know your cooking skills during this meal tonight. In the future, you will be a big star in our team!"
Sun Xiangdong was obviously saying that Su Bai would be able to enjoy a lot of preferential treatment in the provincial team in the future, including salary increase and other benefits.
However, Su Bai didn't care much about these. Instead, the news that the coach of the national team would come to provide temporary guidance made him pay a little more attention. However, he quickly put these behind his mind. Without any hesitation, he accepted the job immediately.
On the other side, when Zhao Heping went to He Yishen's office, he happened to meet several national team coaches who came to guide the work. Looking at the information about Qiu Wen he brought, these national team coaches also showed some extra interest on their faces.
