Chapter 77 Su Bai's Dispute and Gamble



On the Internet, after the end of the National Track and Field Championships, whether it is track and field enthusiasts on the Track and Field Kingdom, sports celebrities on Weibo, or various sports media, they have all given various track and field summary posts for this year.

There are reviews that break down each event into its own specific parts, comparing the results of each track and field event with the results of the previous year. There are also reviews that simply discuss a particular athlete, creating a graph of the athlete's personal performance and competitive status based on the athlete's 18 years of public competition results, to explore the athlete's performance in that year, the reasons, and whether there is any possibility of improvement in the future.

Among all the analysis and summary posts, the most popular topics of discussion this year are the 400-meter sprint and the 110-meter hurdles. What's more, in this year's summary posts, there is a new category - "coach summary post", or more accurately, "Summary post of Su Bai's coaching results."

This new classification has attracted the attention of many track and field enthusiasts. Su Bai, who was still unknown in early 2018, has now become a hot topic of discussion in track and field events.

On the rise of Su Bai: starting from the changes of the track and field team in Province S

"The ruler of the 400m event in the 18th outdoor season: Su Bai"

"Looking back at the National Track and Field Championships, did the Su team dominate the 400m event? 》

"The unignorable hero of the 110-meter hurdles: Su Bai"

"The chef who stands at the top of the domestic 400-meter sprint event"

One by one, everything that Su Bai has done in the past six months, as long as it can be gossiped about, has been reviewed again by track and field enthusiasts. After reviewing it again, many people are still amazed at Su Bai's deeds.

Not only track and field enthusiasts, but also the Athletics Administration Center has early issued rewards to Su Bai for his Asian Games training and his performance as a leader of the team. Although Su Bai's current qualifications are indeed insufficient and he has only been re-evaluated as a senior coach for the time being, this title has already surpassed the hard work of other coaches over more than ten years.

Sprint Head Coach's Office

While Pei Jinan handed Su Bai the corresponding certificate of this title, he also asked Su Bai about his plans for the winter training period.

Although it is only September 26th, there is still a full half month before the official start of winter training, but all necessary preparations must be made in advance. If various plans have not been determined now, then there may not be enough time to prepare for winter training.

Su Bai was of course well prepared for this. When he came to see Pei Jinan, he had already brought the overall plan he had prepared with him, so that he could communicate with Pei Jinan. Immediately, he handed the text of the plan to Pei Jinan and briefly reported to him the training arrangements during the winter training period.

"Joint training of men's and women's teams?" Pei Jinan flipped through the text in his hand and raised his eyebrows: "The training requirements for strength, endurance, etc. of men's and women's teams are different, right? Wouldn't joint training be chaotic?"

"Won't."

Su Bai just answered two words and was about to explain the reason for his arrangement for joint training of the men's and women's teams, but Pei Jinan had already nodded and continued reading.

Su Bai was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly and did not continue to interrupt Pei Jinan's review.

Pei Jinan nodded until the end. "Okay, I know about the plan for co-training of men and women. I will arrange staff to contact you for other plan requirements. If you need anything, just tell the team. Although next year is a big year for track and field competitions, with the Asian Championships and the World Championships, the team is also aware of the growth of the 400m event. Your main task next year is still the Asian Championships, so don't put too much pressure on yourself."

After a pause, Pei Jinan said: "But from my personal point of view, if possible, I hope to see a breakthrough in our team getting a place in the World Championships."

Pei Jinan said this very cautiously. He didn't seem to want to put too much pressure on Su Bai, so he considered it over and over again before saying this.

Su Bai did not refuse, but nodded very seriously: "I understand. When the qualifying results of the World Championships are released, I will make arrangements based on this result."

Pei Jinan glanced at Su Bai, his eyes full of relief - although Su Bai only said that he would make arrangements based on this result, Pei Jinan was already very satisfied that Su Bai was willing to agree to it. This almost meant that Su Bai was somewhat confident about this matter.

Thinking of this, Pei Jinan couldn't help but want to praise Su Bai a few more words.

However, before Pei Jinan could finish his compliment, Su Bai's next words made Pei Jinan frown.

"Coach Pei, in addition to the normal training for the 400m event, Coach Lu has also communicated with me before. In addition to Cui Luoheng, I will also briefly follow up on the training plans of Lu Mengfan and Zhao Yankai."

In fact, Pei Jinan had guessed that this would happen. After all, Cui Luoheng's results in the Asian Games were right in front of him. If Su Bai could train a Cui Luoheng, then how could Lu Shengbin give up Su Bai, a talent who was right beside him?

Although Pei Jinan was a little worried that Su Bai's distraction would affect his coaching of the 400-meter event, he still nodded: "Okay, but, Xiaobai, you still have to remember that your focus is still on the 400-meter event. The 400-meter event is your root now."

Pei Jinan's words were spoken with great earnestness and were indeed meant for Su Bai's sake.

At present, there has not been much improvement in the research and coaching of the 400-meter sprint in China. Su Bai is the only coach in the country who has achieved great results in the 400-meter event. In other words, if nothing unexpected happens, as long as Su Bai can lead the 400-meter event to the top step by step, he will be the undisputed authority on the 400-meter event in China.

If Su Bai was distracted by other projects, it would indeed be a loss.

After Su Bai heard Pei Jinan say this, the words he was about to continue with suddenly stopped in his mouth.

"What's wrong?" Pei Jinan noticed that Su Bai suddenly stopped talking.

Su Bai thought about it and handed another document in his hand to Pei Jinan - this was a training plan document for Fang Yu.

After seeing Fang Yu's name and the subject of the document, Pei Jinan frowned and glanced at Su Bai: "Nonsense!"

After this rebuke, Pei Jinan seemed to realize that his tone was too harsh. He took a deep breath, clasped his right index finger on the table, and tapped it, as if trying to suppress his temper that had just risen.

"Xiao Bai." Pei Jinan tapped the table for more than ten seconds before sighing and saying to Su Bai, "I won't talk about the 110-meter hurdles before. You single-handedly brought Cui Luoheng up in the S Province Track and Field Team. Everyone has seen your coaching results in the 110-meter hurdles. If you want to continue to coach Cui Luoheng, I will absolutely not say a word. Old Lu, that guy, saw your ability to coach the 110-meter hurdles, and he wanted you to give some pointers to Lu Mengfan and Zhao Yankai. Although this will distract you a little, you do have the ability and you have the foundation before, so that's fine."

"But what about your plan?"

After seeing that this document was a training plan for Fang Yu, Pei Jinan did not continue to read it, but closed the document directly.

Pei Jinan said to Su Bai earnestly: "Xiao Bai, I know your ability to coach the 400m and 110m hurdles, but the 100m, 200m and 400m, although these events are all sprints, the focus of training is completely different. I think you also know this."

"Besides, even if we don't talk about this, you should know what level of athlete Fang Yu is in our country. His training plan, in addition to me, also needs to be repeatedly verified by the entire expert group."

"You used to practice 100-meter running, so you should know, and you must know, what Fang Yu means to us as the only 100-meter runner in the country who has broken the 10-second barrier."

"As someone who has never been involved in 100-meter training, you should know that even if you give a plan, it is impossible to use it directly in Fang Yu's training. The plan you gave is a complete winter training plan. You have the time and energy to make this plan. Can't you do some other preparatory work?"

At this point, Pei Jinan rubbed his forehead helplessly, and looked at Su Bai as if he was looking at his own ignorant junior. He sighed and said, "Let's forget about all this, Xiaobai. I'm your superior, but I'm also Fang Yu's head coach. You handed me Fang Yu's training plan. If ordinary people saw it, what would it mean? Are you looking down on me? Or do you want to overstep your authority?"

Su Bai had listened to Pei Jinan's lectures before, and all of this was within his expectations, so he did not say much in his defense, intending to wait until Pei Jinan calmed down before speaking. But when Pei Jinan said these last words, Su Bai realized that it was inappropriate for him to hand the document to Pei Jinan at this moment.

Su Bai opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he really didn't have enough persuasiveness at the moment. The situation Fang Yu was facing now was not like Qiu Wen and Cui Luoheng's, where they could directly improve their grades in a short period of time through temporary explanations.

Just as Pei Jinan said, he had no way to directly and convincingly prove that Fang Yu could use this training plan without any negative consequences, nor did he have any way to prove that the improvement in Fang Yu's performance brought about by his training plan would be more suitable than the plan developed by the coaching staff.

Pei Jinan looked at him, sighed and shook his head: "Okay, I know you don't mean that, but Xiaobai, you should also know how inappropriate it is for you to do this."

Su Bai frowned and said nothing. Over the past six months, everything had gone very smoothly, whether he was a chef in the kitchen or a coach. This really made him think a lot less when considering submitting the proposal this time.

only……

There is no room for thinking about that now.

Su Bai also closed his eyes, then opened them and looked at Pei Jinan with a firm gaze: "Coach Pei, although this is the case, but... Fang Yu will soon be 28 years old, and his current condition is already very dangerous!"

"Coach Pei, you should have watched the preliminaries of this National Championships. Fang Yu's overall condition has declined seriously since his previous peak competitive state, and the pressure on him is too great. His condition in the finals of this National Championships depends entirely on self-adjustment, but this kind of adjustment is exhausting for him."

"These are all signs that he is on the verge of a dangerous state!"

Pei Jinan paused after hearing this, then looked at Su Bai: "Yes, Fang Yu is about to turn 28. We can see his current condition, but this also means that he no longer has the possibility of trial and error."

"Xiao Bai, can you guarantee that your plan will be absolutely effective?"

"Can you guarantee that your training plan can improve Fang Yu's current situation and enable him to achieve a breakthrough in his performance?"

Su Bai clenched his fist: "I can."

Pei Jinan shook his head and sighed: "Xiaobai, you still don't understand what I mean. You say you can, but what can you use to guarantee that you can do it?"

This was almost a dead end. Su Bai clenched his fists and wanted to say something else, but he was indeed unable to guarantee anything.

Just like Pei Jinan said, what can he use to prove that he can do it?

"Okay, Xiaobai, the team will definitely fully support you in your 400-meter training plan. You can also prepare well for the 110-meter hurdles. Just remember, don't be too distracted and affect your 400-meter training plan."

Pei Jinan looked at Su Bai seriously: "You are still young, Xiaobai, do your job well."

Su Bai hesitated for a moment, but still nodded, then said goodbye to Pei Jinan and turned to leave Pei Jinan's office.

Before walking to the office door, Su Bai turned back and looked at Pei Jinan seriously: "Coach Pei, if possible, I hope you can take a closer look at Fang Yu's plan that I submitted."

Having said that, Su Bai turned and left Pei Jinan's office.

On the way back to his office, Su Bai shook his head with a wry smile. Submitting Fang Yu's plan today was the most powerless he had felt in the past six months. Especially after seeing Fang Yu's actual situation several times and his lonely figure in the preliminaries of the National Championships, he could say that he was overstepping his authority or that he was inflated. He really could not, when he was capable of doing so, allow this hero who had created miracles for all of Asia to tragically fall from the altar.

only……

He knew that he had the ability to do it. He had even built a simulated athlete of Fang Yu in the system's training space, and he had adjusted the simulated athlete's adaptability to the plan many times.

But he had no way of expressing it, nor of using it as an example of himself.

etc!

Is there really no way for him to prove it?

Su Bai thought of the simulated athlete in his mind, and suddenly realized that he was not completely unable to prove the effectiveness of his training plan.

Thinking of the images that flashed through his mind, Su Bai gritted his teeth, turned around and returned to Pei Jinan's office.

"Coach Pei!"

Su Bai stood outside the door and knocked on Pei Jinan's door. Then, in Pei Jinan's slightly surprised gaze, he walked back to his desk.

"Coach Pei, I can prove it!"

Pei Jinan looked at Su Bai in surprise: "Prove what? Is your training program effective?"

Su Bai nodded seriously: "Yes, I can."

Seeing Su Bai's serious and completely confident look, Pei Jinan was also a little surprised. He frowned and looked at Su Bai: "How can you prove it?"

"I need Fang Yu's training plan for the next half month. Two days later, I will start providing Fang Yu with a series of physical test data and training effectiveness prediction data after using this training room."

"I guarantee that the error between the predicted data and Fang Yu's actual training data will not exceed ten percent."

!

Su Bai's words shocked Pei Jinan completely: "What did you say?!"

Su Bai repeated his previous words again: "I guarantee that the error between my prediction of Fang Yu's final data using the current training plan and his actual training results will not exceed 10%, including the range of data that his 100-meter performance will fluctuate in during the training test after he has completed this training plan."

"At the same time, I will also give the training plan I developed. After implementation, I will tell you what the actual training results of Fang Yu will be. If the data error exceeds 10%, I am willing to bear all the consequences."

Su Bai's words shocked Pei Jinan so much that he stood up. He glanced at Su Bai's determined look, then lowered his head and took the training plan that he had just put aside back into his hands. This time, he carefully read the training plan again in front of Su Bai.

Pei Jinan's expression was unpredictable at this moment. He was thinking whether Su Bai's plan could really be as effective as he said, and then he was thinking whether Su Bai's prediction would be true.

You know, the coaching team will of course have an existing estimate of the effectiveness of the training plan for the athletes, including the national team's data group. The scientific researchers also have specially established athlete data models. These are the basic guarantees for them to predict the training effects and results of the athletes.

But even so, they did not dare to say as confidently as Su Bai that they could guarantee the training results.

During the training process, coaches need to keep an eye on the athletes' daily data changes in real time. If the training results deviate from previous estimates, they must find out whether it is a problem with the athlete or the training plan, and then adjust the relevant training plan in a timely manner.

In other words, it is absolutely impossible for a coach to predict an athlete's exact performance in real time. It is difficult to keep the error within 10%, let alone 20 or 30 percent.

Pei Jinan looked at the plan in his hand and rubbed his head. This time, he did not reject Su Bai's proposal as he did before, but looked at him again to confirm: "Are you sure you can do it?"

Su Bai looked at Pei Jinan again with certainty: "Yes, I can!"

This time, Pei Jinan did not refuse Su Bai's request. He closed his eyes and thought for a long time, then picked up the landline phone in the office and directly notified his assistant coach, asking him to provide Su Bai with all of Fang Yu's information, including Fang Yu's training plan for the next half month, and even the data model and prediction waveform chart established by the data group for Fang Yu.

"Xiao Bai, I trust you this time about Fang Yu." Pei Jinan looked at Su Bai, and then said seriously: "Remember, Fang Yu's matter can't be trifled with. If you can't do it this time, there will be no next time."

Su Bai also looked at Pei Jinan seriously, and after a moment, nodded: "Don't worry, Coach Pei, I know."

This time, Su Bai walked out of Pei Jinan's office, feeling a little relieved. Although he had made an agreement that seemed difficult to everyone, and almost gambled Pei Jinan's trust in him for it, he felt it was worth it.

Not long after Su Bai left, Wu Shengping went to Pei Jinan's office to discuss training with him. As they were talking, Wu Shengping suddenly asked, "Xiao Lin said you asked him to compile a complete set of Fang Yu's information for Su Bai. What is this for?"

Pei Jinan was also thinking about the agreement between him and Su Bai at this moment, so he smiled bitterly and told Su Bai about the agreement and his promise.

"Ah, now that I think about it, I got a little carried away just now. I agreed to Xiao Bai so directly." Pei Jinan shook his head and said, "He was young and ignorant and dared to make such a bet. Why did I agree to it so hot-headedly? If he fails to do it, at his young age, I am also worried that his confidence will be frustrated..."

After listening to Pei Jinan's words, Wu Shengping smiled and said, "Oh, Old Pei, to be honest, if someone else had brought this up to you, I would have definitely thought he was talking nonsense, but Xiaobai..."

Pei Jinan looked at Wu Shengping with some doubt: "What did Xiaobai say?"

Wu Shengping smiled and said, "Didn't I go to the S Province Track and Field Team for exchange and guidance before? At that time, Su Bai had just spotted Qiu Wen's potential and wanted to arrange for Qiu Wen to switch to the 400-meter sprint. The S Province Track and Field Team was testing Qiu Wen's potential in the 400-meter race, and their coach called me along as well."

Pei Jinan nodded. He also remembered that Wu Shengping had mentioned this matter.

Wu Shengping smiled: "I didn't go into detail at the time. In fact, Su Bai made a very accurate prediction of Qiu Wen's test results. I remember it very clearly. At that time, he predicted the result of one of Qiu Wen's tests to be 47.60 seconds, saying that Qiu Wen's test result would be within this score."

"47.60 seconds?" Pei Jinan frowned: "What was Qiu Wen's final test score?"

"47.58 seconds."

Hearing this data, Pei Jinan took a deep breath.

Wu Shengping smiled and said, "At that time, Xiaobai was just a cook for the S Province Track and Field Team, and at most a retired 100-meter sprinter. I think all his knowledge about athlete training at that time probably came simply from his major in college."

Pei Jinan hesitated when he heard this: "So, we can expect Xiaobai to take over his prediction?"

Wu Shengping nodded and smiled naturally: "Of course, I am looking forward to it too."

Pei Jinan glanced at the training plan submitted by Su Bai, shook his head and sighed, "Okay, then let's wait and see if our coach Su Bai can make his accurate prediction this time."

Pei Jinan laughed again and said to Wu Shengping, "If this kid can really do it, then he would be a little monster, right?"

Wu Shengping also laughed when he heard this: "Okay, Old Pei, this little guy is already a monster now. If he can really do it, then our Chinese track and field may be able to make great strides forward!"

Hearing this, Pei Jinan couldn't help but reveal a hint of expectation in his eyes: "I hope so!"
