Chapter 54 (1)



Not only Guo Dun, but also Jiang Wentao, Pei Jinan and Wang Ting who were standing by the track and watching the game nervously were all confused at this moment - what was the performance target that Su Bai set for Zhang Ziyi and Qiu Wen before?

It seems to be 46.15 and 46.25?

So this is all exceeding the target? !

It's not just Zhang Ziyi and Qiu Wen.

On the track just now, the third person to cross the finish line was neither Guo Dun nor Lin Chuan, but Li Junhao, whose performance and condition had been very poor in this season. Li Junhao's result was now clearly displayed on the electronic timer display panel at the training ground - 46.33 seconds, which was not only his best result this season, but also a significant breakthrough in his personal PB result.

When Wang Ting saw Li Junhao's results, he was so excited that he pumped his fist and shouted "good".

Li Junhao has been a player that Wang Ting has been very optimistic about since he was still participating in the youth group. However, over the past year or so, Li Junhao's performance has indeed disappointed him, but he doesn't know where to start.

Wang Ting has always felt that Li Junhao's mentality became unstable after he achieved good results, but no matter how much he tried to persuade him back, he failed. Not only that, Li Junhao's results were getting worse and worse... This gave Wang Ting a headache, and he was also worried that the players he had trained for so many years would be wasted.

But unexpectedly, after Su Bai's combination of punches, everyone thought that the athletes' mentality and performance would be affected, but in fact, this plan completely awakened the athletes in the 400-meter event?

On the training ground, the electronic timer's display screen has shown the results of all eight athletes: 1st place, Zhang Ziyi: 45.96 seconds, 2nd place, Qiu Wen: 46.16 seconds, 3rd place, Li Junhao: 46.33 seconds, 4th place, Guo Dun: 46.39 seconds, 5th place, Lin Chuan: 46.45 seconds, 6th place, Zhang Chang: 46.51 seconds, 7th place, Zhou Xu: 46.72 seconds.

Among the seven players, only the last two, Zhang Chang and Zhou Xu, have not yet achieved the training goals initially set by Su Bai. However, at the beginning of the competition, Zhou Xu obviously made a mistake in the start. He was slow in the reaction stage of hearing the gun, so that his starting reaction time reached 0.359 seconds, which seriously affected his subsequent results and overall performance.

In addition to Zhou Xu, another person who failed to run into the standard time was Zhang Chang. However, his result of 46.51 seconds was already very close to success. After seeing his result, Zhang Chang was first happy, then regretful, and began to regret that he could not do better in the test just now.

Among the 7 runners, except for Qiu Wen and Li Junhao, the rest of the runners did not actually achieve the best results in their sports careers. However, the feeling of "once you start running, you can reach this state" still made all the runners excited.

With this feeling, they even want to run another lap immediately to try whether this idea is an illusion.

"Coach Su...are these results within your expectations?" Jiang Wentao looked at the results on the display screen and still found it somewhat magical.

These achievements cannot be considered good in an international context or even in an Asian context, but they are surprising enough in China.

Comparing the results of several track and field Grand Prix races this year and the final Asian Games trials 400m event, even for Zhou Xu, who obviously made mistakes today, his result of 46.72 seconds was enough to take him into the top three in any Grand Prix this year.

In just 20 days, Su Bai did what he promised and significantly improved the athletes' performance.

Su Bai nodded, without saying anything more, but walked directly to the players and announced the results of today's test: "Today's test has basically achieved the goal. Zhang Chang and Zhou Xu, take a 15-minute break and retest. There are still 5 days of training time. Qiu Wen will continue to follow the original training plan. There will be detailed adjustments and communications later. Zhang Ziyi, Guo Dun, Lin Chuan, and Li Junhao officially enter the 4*400m relay team list. Zhang Chang and Zhou Xu are on the bench. There will be a separate relay intensive training course in the next 5 days. Zhang Chang and Zhou Xu will also participate as alternate players."

As announced before, the top four players except Qiu Wen directly formed the 4*400m team for this Asian Games, and the ranking given by Su Bai also indicated that Li Junhao will be directly responsible for the last baton of the 4*400m - which is also an extremely important baton in the relay team.

After hearing Su Bai announce the list, Li Junhao's expression did not change, but his hands were secretly clenched into fists.

Others had not noticed why his performance had fluctuated and declined so drastically, but he himself vaguely knew it. If he was still responsible for the second or third leg in the 400-meter relay team as he had been in the past, then he might not have felt too much pressure.

But... the fourth baton.

Is Su Bai so confident in handing the fourth baton position in the 400-meter relay to him?

Li Junhao gritted his teeth and secretly glanced at Su Bai, but was unexpectedly caught by Su Bai.

"What? You don't dare to take on the role of the fourth runner? You don't dare to shoulder the responsibility of the fourth runner?" Su Bai glanced at Li Junhao casually, his tone very calm.

grass!

"Who the hell doesn't dare?!" Li Junhao glared at Su Bai and felt that this pretty boy coach was really annoying.

"Oh." Su Bai heard Li Junhao's answer, a smile flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled at Li Junhao: "Then you have to work hard in the next 400-meter relay training. After all, whether you can get rid of the disadvantage or maintain the advantage in the last leg of the 400-meter race depends on your performance."

"Yes, Ah Hao, how well we can maintain the final result of our 400-meter relay depends on you!" Zhang Ziyi smiled and patted his junior on the shoulder.

When Zhang Ziyi saw Li Junhao's results just now, he felt very surprised. He knew how much effort their coach Wang Ting had spent on Li Junhao. Seeing that Li Junhao was able to cheer up again and significantly refresh his PB, he was greatly relieved.

Lin Chuan, Guo Dun, Zhou Xu and Zhang Chang also ran over one by one and patted Li Junhao on the shoulder to cheer him up. Even Qiu Wen ran over to him and patted him on the shoulder enthusiastically like everyone else, then looked at him with eyes full of trust, expressing his belief that he could definitely shoulder the responsibility of leading the team to achieve good results.

Originally, Li Junhao was still complaining in his heart that Su Bai was a nasty gigolo coach, but at this moment, his voice suddenly became hoarse, and his usual "I am the most powerful person in the world" look was on his face. All the complaints he wanted to make were blocked by the trust and encouragement of his teammates around him. He opened his mouth several times but couldn't say anything. Finally, he secretly glanced at Su Bai and could only complain in his heart that this coach was not only a gigolo, but also a cunning gigolo!

only……

This pretty boy really has some skills.

Li Junhao couldn't help but feel a little fluctuated when he thought of his recently refreshed personal PB - for more than a year, he had almost given up hope on his own results. He once thought that maybe when everyone had no hope in him, he would not have to bear any pressure, and perhaps his results would be able to improve again?

But today, his conjecture was shattered by his own hands. It was a surprise and a complete accident.

He understood that if he had not had the excitement of the previous practice match, and if Su Bai had not torn off his fig leaf so bluntly and even to the point of hurting his soul, he would not have been so angry, to the point of being furious, and then putting this furious and angry mind into training.

However, at this moment, Li Junhao still does not have enough confidence in himself - in today's test match, he ran a time of 46.33 seconds, but what about after that?

Can he still achieve this result in a formal competition?

In the relay race...can he really withstand everyone's attention, the hopes of the entire team, and rush to the finish line with this hope?

Amidst everyone's blessings, Li Junhao had a sullen face and did not dare to answer the question in his heart.

Who the hell could have thought of that?

Everyone thought he was getting cocky, but it turned out that Li Junhao was just a coward.

Just as Li Junhao's thoughts were racing, Zhang Ziyi suddenly asked Su Bai a question.

"Coach... I want to ask, do you think I still have a chance to refresh my personal PB?"

Zhang Ziyi has kept this question in his heart for a long time.

As the number one in the domestic men's 400m event, Zhang Ziyi certainly has his own pursuit of results. However, this pursuit has gradually become like a luxury under the domestic 400m level and environment.

After he ran his best time of 45.57 seconds, he was never able to replicate that success again. Even running under 46 seconds was not something he could do often. This was largely due to his condition during the race, which involved a lot of luck.

Just like last year's 2017 season, he was lucky and ran under 46 seconds in explosive form, becoming the best player of the season that year. But this season, his form was not so good, so he has not been able to break through the 46-second mark. Until today, it was the first time this season that he broke the 46-second mark again.

Although he carries the unreal title of "the best in the 400m event" in China, Zhang Ziyi is well aware of the gap between domestic and international standards in the 400m event because he often participates in foreign competitions. This inevitably makes his mentality somewhat depressed and unbalanced.

Until today, until Zhang Ziyi truly felt that Su Bai seemed to have brought about a qualitative leap in the performance of all team members in 20 days with just a casual remark... Zhang Ziyi suddenly wanted to ask Su Bai this, hoping to get an answer from Su Bai that would allow him to continue to struggle or simply despair.

After Zhang Ziyi asked this question, the athletes present fell silent for a moment, and Jiang Wentao, Pei Jinan, and Wang Ting, who were originally standing on the sidelines, also stopped talking.

Su Bai has conquered them with the abilities he has demonstrated in the past twenty days, and they also want to hear Su Bai's judgment on Zhang Ziyi.

Everyone looked at Su Bai with a hint of anticipation and trepidation.

Looking at the expectant gazes around him, Su Bai also looked at Zhang Ziyi seriously: "Why not?"

Just with these five short words, a hint of surprise appeared on Zhang Ziyi's face.

Su Bai smiled, then looked at all the athletes present with a serious look: "Since Ziyi has this question, I can tell you very solemnly here, based on my personal experience, whether it is you, Zhang Ziyi, or Zhou Xu, Zhang Chang, everyone here, your talent in the 400m event is not inferior to that of athletes from most Asian countries."

"So, my plan for everyone's performance cannot stop at 46.50 seconds."

"So far this season, there are nine Japanese athletes who have run under 46 seconds, but in official domestic competitions, this number is currently zero."

When Su Bai said this, all the contestants present, including Zhang Ziyi, looked unnatural for a moment.

Su Bai ignored their shame and spoke directly: "Based on your current results, I think I should continue to serve as the national team's 400m coach. I only propose one goal here - I hope that in the next outdoor season, there will be at least five domestic men's 400m athletes who can break the 46-second barrier during the season."

The appearance of this target surprised the players present, including Jiang Wentao and others.

If we say that during this period of test matches, Su Bai's target performance requirement for the athletes is 46.50 seconds, and about half of the athletes present have achieved this result, then the world record of less than 46 seconds... Among the athletes present, only Zhang Ziyi and Guo Dun have achieved it, and Guo Dun has only run it twice so far.

Before everyone could come to their senses from the goal set by Su Bai, Su Bai suddenly turned the topic to Zhang Ziyi.

"As long as you are willing to fight, believe me, your results will never stop here." After a pause, Su Bai's eyes suddenly swept across all the players present: "In my opinion, among you, at least three people present have the opportunity to break the current national record of 45.25 seconds."

"Don't underestimate yourselves. Your talent is definitely not worse than those Japanese players who broke the 46-second barrier during the season."

…………

I don't know if it was influenced by what Su Bai said after the test match that day, but in the subsequent re-test that day, including Zhou Xu and Zhang Chang, all the members finally broke the team test target set by Su Bai 20 days ago.

But if they look back 20 days ago, they would never have believed that they could do this so easily.

Faced with the training goals set by Su Bai for them for the next year, these athletes, who originally felt unbelievable, after finally reviewing their test results, quietly began to look forward to the next year's training and results.

[At least 5 people can break the 46-second mark...]

[Then, will I be among those five people? 】

This kind of thought is inevitable in everyone's mind.

After leaving the training ground and returning to the office, Pei Jinan and Jiang Wentao, who had been eager to make a move all the way, couldn't help but speak.

"Coach Su..."

Pei Jinan and Jiang Wentao, who spoke at the same time, were stunned for a moment, then smiled at each other, and Pei Jinan spoke first.

"Coach Su, what you just said on the training ground, is it true?"

Su Bai blinked and asked, "Which sentence did I say?"

"Next year, we expect at least five runners to break the 46-second barrier..."

Su Bai frowned: "Fake."

"ah……!"

When Pei Jinan, Jiang Wentao and Wang Ting heard him say this, they all looked disappointed.

Seeing the disappointed looks of the three, Su Bai immediately knew what they had misunderstood, so he smiled and said, "Actually, it's not 5 people, but 7 people."

?

? ! !

Su Bai's heavy breathing made the remaining three people present open their eyes wide.

"Coach Su, what you mean is that... there is a high probability that all the players will break the 46-second mark next year?"

Su Bai nodded: "Yes, I have already made a rough assessment of the abilities, technical characteristics, and project potential of these players. Although not every one of them has the chance to run under 45.50 seconds, they all have no problem breaking the 46-second mark."

"The reason why I didn't tell everyone just now is to maintain their competitive mentality and avoid them becoming lazy because of the idea that 'everyone has opportunities and potential'."

After hearing Su Bai's explanation, Pei Jinan and the others breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, they also began to look forward to the project prospects for the coming year that Su Bai described.

After feeling happy, Jiang Wentao thought of the upcoming Asian Games.

"In today's test match, Zhang Ziyi and Qiu Wen ran 45.96 and 46.16 respectively. According to what you said, Coach Su, their results can basically be stabilized in this range. Doesn't that mean both of them have a good chance of making it to the Asian Games finals?!"

If the semi-final results of the men's 400m event in previous Asian Games are used as a measure, then if a player wants to enter the 400m final, he must at least be able to run within 46.20 seconds in the semi-finals - a result that Zhang Ziyi was not necessarily able to achieve on average in the past.

And now... among the contestants of the men's 400m, Zhang Ziyi and Qiu Wen both have the foundation for such performance!

As long as they can maintain this state...

Thinking of this, Jiang Wentao felt excited.

The original goal proposed by the General Administration of Sport of China for this year's Jakarta Asian Games was for all athletes to enter the quarterfinals in all events.

This goal is stress-free for some events, but in track and field, there are actually quite a few pitfalls. For example, in the 400m event, although athletes were sent to participate, the Athletics Administration Center had already made a special report to the General Administration of Sport, intending to take on possible problems that might arise in the men's 400m event.

Who would have known that, in the blink of an eye, things would suddenly turn around and things would look brighter?

In response to Jiang Wentao's question, Su Bai nodded: "If we follow the qualifying standards of previous years, both Zhang Ziyi and Qiu Wen have hope, but it is precisely because of the addition of these two players who are competitive in the finals, so the qualifying standards for this year's finals may be higher than in previous years."

As soon as Su Bai made this analysis, Jiang Wentao calmed down immediately - indeed, in previous years when Zhang Ziyi might not have made it to the finals, the qualifying standard for the finals was around 46.20 seconds. Now that there are two more people, shouldn't the qualifying standard for the finals be raised?

Thinking of this, Jiang Wentao's heart began to lift again, but this time he felt both nervous and expectant. After all, this time there were at least two promising prospects, Zhang Ziyi and Qiu Wen, right?

On the same day, Jiang Wentao and others talked with Su Bai in his office about the next work tasks and other things that Su Bai might face. At the training ground for the 400-meter event, the training atmosphere among several 400-meter athletes was much more intense than before.

While training, Zhang Ziyi couldn't help but think of their new national team's 400m head coach Su Bai.

From a seemingly normal and calm state, to Su Bai shattering this calm with lightning speed, and at the same time completely tearing out the escapism and cowardice hidden in all of their hearts, and then to iron-fistedly betting his own future to gain a little trust from everyone, and using this trust to provide them with a series of training and guidance, and finally today, the stage victory for Su Bai and all of them.

After figuring all of this out, Zhang Ziyi couldn't help but admire in his heart - although their coach is young, he is not to be underestimated.

At the same time, after seeing off Jiang Wentao and others, Su Bai finally breathed a sigh of relief. During the past twenty days, because there were many athletes who needed attention in the 400-meter event, and it was related to whether his coaching career would be smooth in the future, he focused most of his time here. Until today, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

After looking at the time, Su Bai thought about it and stopped sitting in the office. Instead, he got up and left, walking towards the 110-meter hurdles training ground.

During this period of time, he had very little time and energy to pay attention to Cui Luoheng. Fortunately, he had bound dynamic body condition analysis to Cui Luoheng, and the dynamic body condition analysis had an early warning function that could set alarm values ​​for various attribute data for the bound players. Once the player's attribute data reached the early warning range, an alarm would be issued.

With the help of real-time data from dynamic analysis and Cui Luoheng's training files delivered to him by the assistant coach of the hurdles group every day, as well as occasionally taking time out to visit the hurdles group to observe Cui Luoheng's training results, and some communication and inquiries with Cui Luoheng during the evening snack time, he was able to barely hold on to the training during this period.

When Su Bai arrived at the training ground for the 110-meter hurdles, Lu Mengfan, Zhao Yankai and Cui Luoheng were all conducting their own training. Although Zhao Yankai failed to qualify for the 110-meter hurdles in this Asian Games, he was the original number two figure in the 110-meter hurdles event in the country. When Lu Shengbin issued the training call-up list, he also included Zhao Yankai.

Unfortunately, Zhao Yankai's performance during this training cycle was not very good. Perhaps it was because Cui Luoheng had given him too much of a shock in two consecutive games, so that he had not been able to adjust his mentality well, and his performance in training during this period was also rather dull.

The head coach of the hurdles group, Lu Shengbin, was not very satisfied with Zhao Yankai's performance during this period. He roughly knew the crux of the problem, but in the communication with Zhao Yankai, he failed to change his mentality well. Lu Shengbin still focused more on training Lu Mengfan, and there was no better way to deal with it.

In Lu Shengbin's opinion, Cui Luoheng is also relatively silent during training, but his silence is different from Zhao Yankai's silence.

Zhao Yankai's dullness caused his training state to decline.

Cui Luoheng's silence seemed to be due to his dissatisfaction with something, so he vented this dissatisfaction through hard training.

In comparison, although Cui Luoheng was silent, he always maintained a good condition in a series of training. In several tests within the team, Cui Luoheng's results made Lu Shengbin quite satisfied.

Lu Shengbin couldn't help but admire in his heart. Although Su Bai didn't have much energy to focus on the 110-meter hurdles, Cui Luoheng's training plan was still able to proceed according to the expected results given by Su Bai at the beginning. He was truly an amazing person.

"Hey, Coach Su!"

Several athletes in the 110-meter hurdles were training independently. Lu Shengbin was simply staring at the athletes at the moment, so he soon noticed Su Bai, who rarely came to the training site.

"Coach Lu, thank you for troubling you during this period." Su Bai nodded to Lu Shengbin.

"Haha, what's so troublesome about it? These are the tasks I need to do. Coach Su, you need to run two projects at the same time, which is hard work."

After Su Bai and Lu Shengbin met, they briefly exchanged views on Cui Luoheng's training situation. Su Bai then temporarily separated from Lu Shengbin and walked to the indoor track to watch Cui Luoheng's training situation.

During this period, Cui Luoheng is conducting strength training for his waist, abdomen and hip joints. This is the overall maintenance and strengthening training that Su Bai has prescribed for Cui Luoheng during this training period, in addition to focusing his attention. The main purpose is to stabilize Cui Luoheng's current physical condition. On the premise that his mental state is further stabilized, his overall quality can also be well maintained in an activated state. Of course, it would be best if he could grow.

Su Bai's requirement for Cui Luoheng is to apply his attention-focusing training to every aspect that requires attention, including training.

So Cui Luoheng didn't notice Su Bai's arrival until he finished a set of training and got off the equipment, then he found that Su Bai had been watching him for a long time.

Seeing Su Bai, who had not appeared during training for a long time, Cui Luoheng felt a little aggrieved for some reason. He pursed his lips and said nothing. He just walked up to Su Bai and looked at him without blinking. His face clearly still had a cold expression of "keep away from strangers", but it made Su Bai feel guilty for a moment, as if he saw a big dog complaining to its owner that he had abandoned it.

“Ahem.”

Su Bai took back the dog ears that he had inexplicably added to Cui Luoheng's head, patted Cui Luoheng on the shoulder, and encouraged him: "You did a good job in training. You have worked hard during this period."

This hard work of course also includes Cui Luoheng’s daily dining problems.

Cui Luoheng himself refused to speak about his taste sensitivity, and Su Bai was not in a position to explain for him. After all, the national track and field team's meals were supervised by the chef Jin Manjiang, and were served buffet style. Both the overall taste and the degree of dining freedom were much better than those of the provincial team. Besides, if the food was not to his liking, even if others could understand verbally, they might privately accuse Cui Luoheng of being pretentious.

In order to maintain sufficient energy for training, Cui Luoheng must eat enough food even if it is not to his appetite.

During this period, the people in the hurdles group always felt that Cui Luoheng was difficult to approach and silent. In addition to the habits that had been developed over the years, the food issue played a big part in it.

Su Bai was thinking about these things in his mind and patted Cui Luoheng's shoulder to comfort him. However, Cui Luoheng was thinking about some other things that he had been thinking about for some time.

During this period of time, because of training in the national team, everyone has a heavy training task. Compared with when he was in the provincial team, Cui Luoheng has more time alone. Occasionally after training or after eating supper and returning to the dormitory, Cui Luoheng will be alone for a while.

As an athlete who has been training in a sports school since he was a child, Cui Luoheng, like most athletes, finds it difficult to have the energy to develop other interests and hobbies besides training. In addition, he has been silently enduring the troubles brought by his sensitive taste buds since he was a child, and has developed a taciturn personality, making him seem even more withdrawn and dull.

Usually, after training, he would sit alone like this, daydream for a while, or watch sports news and some domestic and international events.

But recently, when he was in a daze, the person he thought of from time to time unexpectedly turned into Su Bai.

At the beginning, he noticed Su Bai because of Su Bai's cooking skills. The food he ate from Su Bai made him finally feel the pure sense of peace and happiness brought by food after so many years.

Later, Su Bai also noticed his sensitive sense of taste and would give him a whole portion of side dishes in the cafeteria. All these made him feel good about Su Bai.

What really haunts him is the incident when he was injured because he was in poor form and unbalanced in mentality in many games and forced himself to increase his training volume.

That was when he was in the worst condition, but when Qiu Wen and Wang Shen came to visit him, they not only brought him food prepared by Su Bai himself, but also a passage of words from Su Bai.

He always remembered that Su Bai said he had high hopes for his talent and told him not to cause himself irreparable regrets out of impatience.

It was Su Bai's words that made him feel relieved, and it was Su Bai after that who led him out of the abyss and to the peak he is now.

He wanted to follow Su Bai, move forward with him, and watch Su Bai like an angel, leading him to a more dazzling and brilliant peak.

only……

[…Qiu Wen is right. Xiaobai has too many concubines in his harem. If he doesn’t compete for favor, Xiaobai won’t even notice him. 】

[But...how do I compete for favor? 】

[Is it shameless coquettishness like Qiu Wen? 】

Thinking of this, Cui Luoheng couldn't help but frowned, feeling that it was really difficult for him to be as shameless as Qiu Wen.

Su Bai looked at Cui Luoheng, whose expression changed slightly, and was a little amused: "A Luo, what are you thinking about?"

Cui Luoheng pursed his lips, feeling unwilling but not daring to try, so he shook his head somewhat dejectedly: "Nothing."

Cui Luoheng, who looked a little dejected, looked a little like a big dog in Su Bai's eyes... Before Su Bai's parents passed away, in his childhood memory, his family had raised a German Shepherd that was almost as tall as he was when he was a child. That German Shepherd was clearly a very serious and upright big dog, but it would often look at his parents with its dark eyes and ask for food. Then his parents would not be able to bear it and would pass the big dog's favorite food to his mouth.

Unfortunately, after his parents passed away unexpectedly, he was sent to an orphanage because no one took care of him. He was still young at that time, so he couldn't take his dog to the orphanage, and in the end, no one knew how his dog was doing.

Therefore, when Su Bai didn't know, large dogs and large dog-like creatures and their personalities became the cute points hidden in his heart, such as Qiu Wen who looked like a Husky, and Cui Luoheng in front of him.

"Ahem." Su Bai once again forcibly erased the big ears that had been visualized on Cui Luoheng's head in his mind, and then told him to remember to go to the cafeteria for a midnight snack at night. He then forcibly diverted his attention and began to communicate with Cui Luoheng about some key points that he needed to pay attention to during training.

Not far away, Lv Shengbin looked at Su Bai who was coaching Cui Luoheng attentively, and turned to the assistant coach beside him and said, "Hey, I think Coach Su is a nice guy. Look how seriously he coaches Cui Luoheng. He doesn't look like someone who would directly invite American players to bully our players."

The assistant coach next to Lu Shengbin also nodded sympathetically.

Su Bai's previous ruthless move had already left a great reputation in the national track and field team. He even directly put his identity as the head coach of the national team's 400-meter project on the line and made a direct bet with the athletes. Such a ruthless person is extremely rare among the coaches of the national team.

But, when he was coaching Cui Luoheng in the hurdles group, he was totally different.

To be honest, Lu Shengbin had been very worried before. He wondered whether Su Bai would recruit two 110-meter hurdlers from the United States to conduct practice matches. If so, it would be fine for Lu Mengfan who often competes abroad, but Zhao Yankai would probably be completely ruined.

While Lu Shengbin was daydreaming, Su Bai had already explained the training content to Cui Luoheng, and walked to Lu Shengbin, intending to discuss with him some related matters during the Asian Games.

Lu Shengbin immediately patted his head, put aside the mess in his mind, and the two began to seriously discuss matters during the subsequent competition.

The 25 days of training before the Asian Games passed in a flash, and in the blink of an eye, it was time for the national track and field team to set off for the Asian Games in Jakarta.

This training cycle can be said to be fruitful for the team members in the men's 400m event.

Unlike the previous 20 days of training, during the final 5 days of training, the team will conduct a test match every day to allow players to see their actual and stable test results.

After 20 days of training and adjustment, they have indeed achieved the personal standards proposed by Su Bai in individual events. However, they did not notice it when they were simply doing baton passing training before. However, during the full training, because their respective speeds were different from the past, they were prone to subtle mistakes when judging the pre-start time and the timing of passing the baton.

The adjustment for this mistake was not very smooth, causing their results to hover between 3 minutes 06 and 3 minutes 08 seconds. Only when the baton was passed smoothly could they enter the range of 3 minutes 05 seconds that Su Bai had originally required.

But just this was enough to make them excited.

Because, in those times when the baton was passed smoothly and successfully, they all broke 3 minutes and 4 seconds, which is very close to the national record of 3 minutes and 3.66 seconds set ten years ago!

This means that if they can perform well, they will most likely win medals in the 4*400m event, or even break the previous national record...!

Once they thought of this possibility, all the members of the relay team became excited. Even Li Junhao, who was under great pressure because he was responsible for the last leg, became more focused during training.

August 19th is the day when the national track and field team sets off for Jakarta.

At the B City Airport, athletes wearing national team sportswear gathered together. Many sports media also came to the airport, wanting to interview the national team before their departure.

The main interviewees of this interview were the head coaches of each group, such as Pei Jinan, Lu Shengbin and others, and reporters also caught up with the athletes for random interviews.

Su Bai originally didn't expect anyone to interview him, but perhaps because of his young age,
