Chapter 170
After dinner, everyone present already knew why Jiang Ruohui wanted to run 400 meters.
Zhou Yuang looked surprised: "Sure, Huizi, so when the first coach discovered you, he was attracted by your talent in the 400-meter event, but you are also doing well in the 100-meter event of the G Province Sports Team?"
You know, the 100-meter event of the sprint group of the G Province Sports Team is known as the strongest provincial team in the country.
Zheng Tianxi, Gao Tianwu, Ye Minghao, Feng Xiaofeng...
Among the country's famous 100-meter sprinters, at least 5 of the top 15 are from the G Province Sports Team.
With such strength, they can indeed be called the strongest team in the domestic men's 100-meter sprint.
Among the younger generation of players in the G Province Sports Team, Jiang Ruohui is second only to Ye Minghao in terms of strength and popularity.
Apart from anything else, Ye Minghao's result of 10.44 seconds in the 2019 season ranked 14th in the season performance ranking of domestic male 100m athletes.
Such talent and performance are what Jiang Ruohui achieved after making the choice of "settling for second best".
No wonder Zhou Yuang was surprised.
He couldn't help but said to Jiang Ruohui, "Sure, Huizi, based on your speed ability, if you run 400 meters, wouldn't you be able to break the 46-second mark in a matter of minutes?"
Jiang Ruohui was silent for two seconds: "...It's not that exaggerated. Do you think I'm Su Xiaoyu?"
After complaining about Zhou Yuang, Jiang Ruohui said: "When I was in the provincial team, I originally planned to bring this up with the coaching staff, but it was Ye Zi who suggested that I bring this up after I joined the national team."
"Now that the first week of physical tests and early adaptive training have ended, the new week of training has begun, so I plan to mention this idea to the training coaching staff as soon as possible tomorrow. If the coaching staff allows, I may try to start 400-meter training..."
At this point, Jiang Ruohui frowned: "However, I have been doing special training for 100 meters in the past few years. The main training directions include training in explosive power, strength, starting technique, and front rhythm fluency. For example, the speed endurance and overall speed rhythm control training that are more important in 400 meters are very lacking..."
Su Yu listened to Jiang Ruohui's words, thought about it, and understood what Jiang Ruohui meant: "...You are worried that if you temporarily switch to the 400m event now, it will be difficult to catch up with the other athletes who have been training for several years."
Jiang Ruohui smiled bitterly and nodded: "Yes."
He did not deny the idea, mainly because it was right in front of their good friends and there was no point in denying such a thing.
After hearing Jiang Ruohui's affirmation, Su Yu said, "I think there is no problem."
"Although you have disadvantages, you also have advantages."
After hearing Su Yu's words, Jiang Ruohui was stunned for a moment, then quickly understood: "Xiao Yu, are you talking about my speed ability?"
Su Yu nodded seriously: "Yes."
Whether it is the 100-meter sprint or the 400-meter sprint, even though there are differences in training content and actual technical focus, they are all sprints.
What it means to be a sprinter is that it focuses on speed ability.
In the past, when selecting sprint talents in China, most of the athletes, regardless of whether they were more suitable for the 100 meters or the 400 meters, would be selected by the 100-meter coaches first. Only after the suitable people had been selected would the remaining athletes be selected to train in the 400 meters.
Because the 400 meters is not taken seriously, some provincial teams don't even have athletes training for the 400 meters.
Even though this season, due to the content of the interviews with Su Yu and Lin Zekai, the Athletics Administration Center and the national team "struck hard" and emphasized the "teaching students in accordance with their aptitude" approach, and athletes from other events began to gradually switch to the 400m event, the innate conditions of 400m sprinters are generally still relatively weak.
Compared with these athletes, Jiang Ruohui, who is currently ranked in the top 15 in the country in the men's 100 meters, is basically a dimensionality reduction attack.
Judging from the top ranking men's 400m runners in China, Zhang Mingliang's personal best in the 100m is 10.85 seconds, and Lin Zekai only has a 200m combined result of 21.07 seconds. Judging from this result, his 100m result should be better, but due to the lack of specific results and competition experience, a rough estimate of his 100m ability is around 10.60 seconds.
Li Mingzhou's 100m result was 10.93 seconds, just barely reaching the national first-class athlete's line in the 100m.
Compare these current top domestic 400m runners' results, and then look at Jiang Ruohui's current 100m personal best of 10.44 seconds...
Su Yu said confidently: "As long as you pass the ability test and the coach judges that Huizi has no problem with your potential in speed and endurance, they will definitely welcome you to switch to 400 meters!"
After all, compared with the 100m, domestic 400m talent is really scarce - take next year's World Youth Championship as an example. If Su Yu does not participate in the World Youth Championship, there are still Ye Minghao and Feng Xiaofeng in the 100m, and at least Zhou Yuang in the 200m, and the 400m...
Su Yu felt that Coach Liu must also be very troubled by the selection of athletes for the 400 meters.
Now if Huizi can switch to the 400m event, coach Liu Qinlong will probably be overjoyed, although coach Sun, who is in charge of the 100m event, will probably be heartbroken.
but……
Su Yu thought about it, he could compete in three events by himself and challenge the relay event at the same time, so there was no reason to stipulate that Huizi could not compete in multiple events?
Hearing Su Yu's words, Ye Minghao also smiled and patted Jiang Ruohui on the shoulder: "Did you hear that? I also think Xiaoyu's suggestion is very good - you can practice both the 100m and 400m events at the same time."
After a pause, Ye Minghao smiled and said, "Besides, wouldn't training 100 meters also help you improve your 400-meter speed ability?"
Jiang Ruohui: “…”
Jiang Ruohui looked at Ye Minghao with amusement, then looked at Su Yu and the others, and said, "I haven't even started working on this dual-project yet, and you've already arranged everything for me in advance?"
Su Yu blinked his eyes - It’s not that I didn’t have it, don’t talk nonsense.
Suddenly, cheerful laughter broke out in the small area of the cafeteria that belonged to them.
***
After returning to the dormitory that night, Su Yu thought about it and secretly poked Pei Dingshan on WeChat.
Su Yu: [Coach 0.0]
Pei Dingshan: [? 】
Su Yu was just trying to poke someone, and before he could organize his words, Pei Dingshan replied immediately.
Su Yu stared at the phone for two seconds, then typed slowly and asked, "Coach, who is the coach in charge of the 400-meter race at the Olympic Training Base?"
Pei Dingshan: [Do you want to recommend a contestant? Who is it? 】
Su Yu hesitated for a moment, and subconsciously made an expression of "Xiao Yu was shocked". When he wanted to withdraw his expression, Pei Dingshan on the opposite side had already sent a new reply.
Pei Dingshan: [Your emoticon pack? Very cute. 】
Su Yu: […Xiao Yu is silent gif]
Since he started saying "thank you boss" every day in the group, Su Yu has become more and more proficient in using his emoticons. At first, he was a little embarrassed, but now he has a completely broken jar mentality (.)
So after accidentally sending the emoticon package during the conversation with Pei Dingshan, Su Yu was silent for a brief moment, then gave up resisting and continued using it.
The conversation at Pei Dingshan's place continued smoothly: [Who do you want to recommend? Jiang Ruohui? 】
Su Yu: […Xiao Yu is shocked gif]
He just asked a question, and Pei Dingshan had automatically completed the entire guessing process, and the guess result was accurate.
Su Yu tapped his fingers on the phone keyboard a few more times: [How do you know? 】
Pei Dingshan's reply was still quick: [You don't have many friends you are familiar with. There are only Ye Minghao and Jiang Ruohui in the training camp. Ye Minghao is a very typical 100-meter runner and it is impossible for him to change events. The only possible one is Jiang Ruohui. 】
Su Yu glanced at Pei Dingshan's reply and slowly replied with an "Oh".
Although he accepted Pei Dingshan's explanation, what Su Yu was thinking in his mind was - as expected, Pei Dingshan could read minds.
Although he was complaining in his heart, Su Yu did not stop typing: [I think Jiang Ruohui's 100-meter ability will help his 400-meter results. 】
On the other end of WeChat, Pei Dingshan was processing the work documents at hand while reading Su Yu's slow replies popping up in the dialog box.
He could roughly imagine that the child opposite him was probably sitting on the bed, typing with a frown on his face.
His fingers flew and he replied quickly: [Yes, is this Jiang Ruohui himself trying to switch to the 400m event? 】
Su Yu did not hide it: [Yes. 】
Pei Dingshan: [Okay, I will communicate with Coach Zhang, the 400m trainer in the training camp. 】
Pei Dingshan: [But Jiang Ruohui has done well in the 100m, so we will probably suggest him to try multiple events first. 】
This result was similar to what Su Yu and the others had discussed before, so he decisively replied with an "OK".
After replying with the word "OK", Su Yu didn't know what to say for a moment, but if he just said good night, it would feel like he was treating Pei Dingshan as a mere tool.
His fingers poked back and forth on the keyboard for a long time. On the other side, Pei Dingshan was looking at the document while looking at the 'typing...' on the input box of the kid opposite with amusement. After a while, he sent a message to the other side.
Pei Dingshan: [Although we have holidays these days, don’t mess up your schedule and go to bed early. 】
Su Yu on the opposite side breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Pei Dingshan's words, and his fingers flew: [Coach, you should also go to bed early, good night. 】
After sending this message, Su Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Okay, the communication is over.
As an autistic player, Su Yu rarely speaks up even in his own family group. Taking the initiative to find Pei Dingshan to communicate today was already a huge challenge for him.
After the "challenge", Su Yu decided to reward himself.
He climbed out of bed, opened his laptop on the desk beside his bed, selected one from the various cutting-edge forum addresses that his seniors had sorted out for him, and clicked on it. According to the index given by his seniors, he found the content suitable for his current level and started reading.
When Jiang Yuan finished washing up and came out of the bathroom, he saw Su Yu sitting in front of the computer looking at something. He walked a few steps closer and wanted to tell Su Yu to go to bed early, but he saw Su Yu sitting on a chair, staring at the computer screen with sparkling eyes. The screen was full of English web pages, which were filled with all kinds of formulas that Jiang Yuan had never seen before. The tablet computer in front of the laptop was recording the contents of various notes that Su Yu had casually written down.
Jiang Yuan was silent for two seconds, rubbed his head with a headache, and then looked at Su Yu who was obsessed.
Although he had long been accustomed to Su Yu's obsession with various complicated "games" that gave him a headache, but now seeing it again, he couldn't help but sigh that as he grew older, the content his child was addicted to became more and more difficult to understand.
After thinking about it, Jiang Yuan did not interfere with Su Yu directly. Instead, he returned to his bed and sent a message to Su Yu via WeChat on his mobile phone -
Jiang Yuan: [Xiao Yu, go to bed early. 】
Su Yu, who was obsessed with acquiring new knowledge, was stunned after seeing Jiang Yuan's message. He looked at the time carefully - it was almost 10 o'clock.
Just then, a new message popped up on WeChat, from Pei Dingshan.
Pei Dingshan: [It’s time to go to bed. Good night. 】
Su Yu opened his eyes slightly, a little puzzled as to how Pei Dingshan guessed that he was still awake, but he hesitated for a moment and sent a gif expression of "Good night, Xiaoyu" to the other party, then closed the forum page and prepared to wash up and rest.
***
The next day, Su Yu got up early as usual, but the team had given them a complete holiday for the past week and had not arranged any training programs.
However, Su Yu had already gotten used to the daily training routine, and would feel something was wrong if he didn't exercise a little every day. So after getting up early, he would first run around for a while, then wash up and go to the cafeteria to have breakfast.
Of course, even though there is no training, it doesn’t mean that there is no time.
Although his seniors told him not to go to school these days, because his World Championships schedule had ended and he had returned to China, the courses arranged for Su Yu were more flexible.
He has quite a few senior classmates, and although each of them has their own research projects to complete, there is no problem for them to guide him together.
Before, he had limited class time every day, so there were fewer courses arranged for him. Now that there are more classes, in fact, there are just a few more senior students taking turns.
And because he was directly substituted by his senior classmates, the courses he studied were actually different from those of his classmates like Zhao Wenbo who took classes on campus.
Recently, Zhao Wenbo and others have occasionally contacted him, mainly to congratulate him on his achievements in the World Championships and to communicate about their respective learning progress.
Students like Zhao Wenbo have a two-month preparatory stage after entering the school, during which they need to complete a total of 18 credits of preparatory basics and preparatory general courses.
This is because the students enrolled in the Leading Talent Program range from the third year of junior high school to the third year of senior high school. At the same time, the subsequent undergraduate-to-doctoral study content also requires some learning content that is not planned in ordinary junior and senior high schools. Therefore, two months of preparatory study are arranged directly after admission.
After preparatory studies, in the 3+2+3 stage, there are various compulsory courses and major courses to study.
Courses such as analysis and equations, algebra and number theory, geometry and topology, and theoretical physics are all choices that need to be made in subsequent professional major courses.
It is currently early to mid-October, and Zhao Wenbo and his colleagues are still conducting preparatory studies for general education courses. Here at Su Yu, his seniors have already accelerated his course progress.
Of course, Su Yu also needs to take the exams for general education courses - it just so happens that he has already returned to China, and just before the start of winter training, he will go to the school to take a round of general education exams, and then he will probably continue to study remotely, and at most he will come to the school for some master classes that have been selected for him by his seniors.
…
While Su Yu was absentmindedly sorting out his subsequent course arrangements, his senior sister's remote teaching class was already ready. However, before the class started, his senior sister chatted with him as usual and talked about the current research progress and work priorities of their mentor, Professor Wang.
After the chat, his senior sister also asked about Su Yu’s subsequent training arrangements.
"From October to next April, you should be in City B for winter training, right?"
Su Yu thought about it and nodded affirmatively: "Yes."
"No other arrangements besides winter training? Then the courses may be adjusted according to your situation later?"
Su Yu thought about it and felt that it shouldn't be a big problem. Just as he was about to agree, his eyes suddenly swept across a stack of documents on the table - it was the advertising invitation plan that Pei Dingshan brought to him yesterday. If he remembered correctly, Pei Dingshan said "this is the first batch."
Then Su Yu was autistic and remembered that he had agreed to the invitation to be an observer of "Super Brain Power" yesterday.
On the other side of the video, Su Yu's senior sister saw the tangled and hesitant look on Su Yu's face and asked, "What's wrong?"
Su Yu was silent for two seconds, and finally gave up the treatment and said: "...I may have some other work to do recently."
Senior sister: “?”
Su Yu took a deep breath and said as if ready to die: "It's probably just some commercial shoots... and variety shows."
"ha?"
After hearing Su Yu's answer, the senior sister on the other side of the video was silent for a few seconds. But after a moment, she was not dissatisfied, but surprised and said: "Hey! Junior brother, you are going to shoot a commercial?!"
The next second she nodded quickly and affirmatively: "That's right! With your looks, grades and popularity, it would be strange if you didn't shoot commercials!"
Then, she asked curiously, "What advertisements are there? What about variety shows? Can you tell me what they are?"
Su Yu looked weak and hesitated, "I'm not sure about the advertisement. The national team sent a stack of contracts here, but I haven't read them yet. It seems that there will be other follow-up."
"As for variety shows... he's the observer for 'Super Brain'... right?"
The senior sister on the other side of the video was originally full of interest, but after hearing Su Yu talk about the observer of "Super Brain Power", her face suddenly looked strange for a second.
Su Yu asked: "Senior Sister, what's wrong?"
The sister on the other side was silent for two seconds, then said, "It's okay. I just didn't expect that Super Brain Power would invite you to be their observer."
As a popular variety show among the people, "Super Brain Power" gathers all kinds of geniuses from all over the world, including contestants with super instant memory and geniuses with graphic ability that is so strong that it breaks through the sky.
Although Su Yu's senior sister is a top student, she is also a fan of variety shows and has watched many programs with super brainpower.
And she still remembers that after the last season of "Super Brain Power" ended, the production team had already started previewing the next season - the Academic God Season.
:)
The program team claims that they will search for talented students from top universities around the world to participate in the competition to see who is the ultimate academic genius.
Isn’t this a coincidence?
As far as she knew, some of her classmates at Q University also received invitations from the program team, but the students who received the invitations were generally those who were already active in campus activities and participated in the recording of some programs on a daily basis.
It is not wrong to call him a genius. After all, anyone who can be admitted to Q University can at least be called a top student.
But compared to their junior brothers...
Lin Xiu felt that if one had to talk about the academic prodigy, then her junior brother could truly be considered a professional match.
However, her junior brother, an autistic child, is not suitable for variety shows at first glance. It is estimated that the national team does not intend to let him stay in variety shows as a permanent guest for a long time, so in the end he will be an 'observer', a guest who only appears in one or two episodes.
But... I don't know what topics the TV station has assigned to these academic geniuses in "Academic God Season".
You have to know that the "observers" in the past were really just observers. Some observers didn't even understand the questions when the contestants on the stage started to solve them. But this time is different...
Lin Xiu thought that this time, the 'observer' might be able to solve the problem faster than the contestants on the stage.
Thinking of this, Lin Xiu couldn't wait to see how her junior brother would perform as an observer in "Super Brain Power".
***
Just as Pei Dingshan said, the "bundle" of advertising invitations the day before was indeed just the first batch. As the Olympic year approaches and as winter training draws near, advertisers' invitations become more and more crazy.
Many people want to sign contracts with the players and shoot commercials before winter training.
Because these advertisers also know that once the winter training period arrives, the national track and field team will be strictly controlled, and it will be difficult to ask the national team to approve leave for the athletes to shoot commercials. At that time, there will only be one day a week, Sunday, that can be freed up for the athletes to shoot commercials, and the time is very inflexible.
In addition to this reason, popular and well-known players in the national team, such as Zheng Tianxi, Feng Chuming, Zhan Youming, and Sun Yuhang, basically trained at the national team's overseas training base during the winter training period.
By that time, people will no longer be in the country, so how can we talk about shooting commercials?
As for waiting until after the Tokyo Olympics next year to shoot commercials?
Not to mention that.
By then, the value of the athletes who have achieved good results will skyrocket, and the value of some dark horse athletes can increase by 50 times. Moreover, after the Olympics, except for some evergreen athletes, the popularity of athletes will gradually decline, which will be too unprofitable for advertisers.
Therefore, most advertisers who wanted to cooperate with the national track and field team took advantage of the opportunity after the World Championships and began to frantically send out invitations for cooperation.
Although the Market Maintenance and Operation Management Department of the Field Management Center had already screened out some inappropriate advertising invitations, Pei Dingshan still sent Su Yu a new stack today.
After seeing the new stack of advertising invitations, Su Yu seemed to wilt, with the word "rejection" written all over his body.
Pei Dingshan looked at the kid with amusement and rubbed his head, but he also said helplessly: "Just select a few, I will help you reject the rest with the team."
Although Su Yu's high popularity is a good thing, Pei Dingshan also realized that the child's personality is really not suitable for taking on too many advertising shoots.
Although there were invitations in the past, the filming content was less, so Su Yu did not resist much. Now that there are too many invitations, the little guy has started to "passively resist."
It's just about the advertising invitation. This thing actually also involves the income of the Athletics Management Center and the national team. One of the requirements for the national team members and coaches is to "comply with the needs of the national team to complete corresponding tasks", which also includes a series of business cooperation of the national team.
After all, although the national team receives state funding, in addition to the funding, "income generation" is also a very important source of funds.
Why does every sport want to go the route of launching star athletes? As the athletes become more well-known, advertising revenue will be high, which will be a huge supplement to the team's funds. Although the national team usually has no shortage of funds, the Athletics Administration Center wants to hold competitions, promote the popularization of athletics, increase basic athletics equipment across the country, etc. All of these tasks still require more financial support.
So Su Yu can refuse the advertising, but it is not easy to refuse all of them.
Pei Dingshan thought for a moment and rubbed the child's head: "Pick three or five, and I'll help you reject the rest."
After saying this, Pei Dingshan couldn't help but laugh in his heart.
If some contestants who are keen on making money knew how many advertising invitations Su Yu had, they would probably want to turn into spinning tops and accept all the advertisements. But when it comes to Su Yu, he would like to turn down all the advertisements.
Seeing the embarrassment in the child's eyes, Pei Dingshan thought for a moment and said, "Just pick three. Just pick three."
It was true that even if he asked his uncle to communicate with the Agricultural Management Center, it would be difficult to reject all the invitations, so he still decided on the number 3.
However, after Su Yu heard Pei Dingshan's persuasion like coaxing a child, he felt a little embarrassed.
He looked at the two piles of documents, and finally said in a 'heroic' tone: "...It's okay, just select a few more."
Su Yu also knew about the distribution of advertising revenue between the national team and the players. He rejected so many advertisements, which was actually equivalent to pushing the national team's income away.
Since he joined the national team, the coaches and leaders in the national team have been very caring towards him. Su Yu himself felt bad for asking him to reject so many advertisements just because he didn't want to do it.
In the previous two seasons, he also participated in the shooting of some commercial videos. Although he was not very adaptable...it was his responsibility.
Pei Dingshan wanted to tell the child not to force himself, but the child looked as if he had made up his mind. He was as stubborn as he was on the court, except that he looked a lot softer.
Pei Dingshan looked at Su Yu and guessed what he was thinking. In the end, he could only rub his head and said, "Okay, then you pick one."
But Su Yu's face wrinkled again at this moment, looking at the two piles of documents, he, who had always been full of autonomy in training and learning, felt for the first time that he also had the "procrastination syndrome".
Finally, Su Yu handed the two stacks of documents to Pei Dingshan with a distressed look on his face: "...Coach, let the team choose."
Pei Dingshan held a large pile of documents in his arms and looked at the child with amusement: "If the team chooses, do you have any selection criteria that you would like?"
When Su Yu heard this question, he hesitated and gave a classic answer: "... choose the expensive one?"
***
After Su Yu gave the classic answer of "choose the expensive one", even Pei Dingshan couldn't help laughing, but in the end he agreed to Su Yu's request and left with the pile of documents.
Of course, even though he left with the documents, it was impossible for him to hand them back to the national team directly, so he gave such an outrageous reply as "choose the expensive one".
In fact, if we follow the national team's thinking, then of course they will accept all the offers they can, after all, no one complains about having too much money.
But now there is a 'Market Maintenance and Operation Department' in the Athletics Management Center, which can provide relatively professional business marketing advice.
It was also based on the suggestions here that Su Yu actually had the space to discuss and refuse - because the suggestion of the Market Maintenance and Operations Department was to take the boutique cooperation route and choose high-quality endorsements that were in line with Su Yu's age, image, and the image of the national team.
Pei Dingshan originally wanted to let the child choose some brands that he was interested in, but now seeing the little guy’s resistance in this regard, he, as the coach, has to make the choices.
***
Su Yu waited until Pei Dingshan left, then thought about his stupid behavior and just wanted to stay in seclusion there for another three days and three nights.
But no matter what, I was determined to solve the advertising problem.
Pei Dingshan's recent trip not only brought him a new advertising invitation, but also told him that the "Super Brain Power" program crew was very happy to receive his response. The filming of the first episode of the program is almost ready, and the specific shooting time should be next weekend. At that time, he will be given the specific shooting time and location in advance.
As for the recording of the program, perhaps because my behavior just now was too stupid, now looking back, I feel that recording a program doesn’t seem to be a big deal.
After breathing a sigh of relief, although my mind was still a little confused, at least these annoying problems were basically solved. All that was left was to follow the team's arrangements and decide when to go and where to cooperate with the shooting and recording of the commercials and programs.
After resolving his "advertising crisis" like an ostrich, Su Yu plunged back into the ocean of knowledge.
Since his rebirth, it has been a long time since he had the opportunity to concentrate on acquiring new knowledge without having to think about anything else.
Each mysterious symbol and number is combined into a series of beautiful and rigorous formulas. How to derive and apply them? Can these new formulas and solutions be used to solve existing problems?
The knowledge of the past and the present began to merge perfectly, and Su Yu completely forgot about time for a moment. It was not until Jiang Yuan returned to the dormitory without calling him that he discovered that Su Yu was wearing noise-canceling headphones and was completely immersed in his own world.
Looking at Su Yu's appearance, Jiang Yuan shook his head with amusement.
Behind Jiang Yuan, Zhou Yuang walked in with a curious look on his face: "How is it, Yuanzi? Where's Su Xiaoyu? Is she in the dormitory?"
When he walked into Jiang Yuan and Su Yu's dormitory, he saw Su Yu squatting in front of a laptop, absorbed in studying. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
“…Good fellow.”
Zhou Yuang was shocked: "Is this the academic god?"
It was the first time in his life that he had seen a genius student who was so absorbed in studying that he didn't even answer the phone.
Not only did Su Yu not answer the call, he didn't even notice that there were two more people in the dormitory.
Zhou Yuang then carefully moved behind Su Yu, looked at the contents on the computer screen, and then stepped back two seconds later with a mask of pain on his face.
It’s so scary, so much knowledge, but none of it is in Chinese.
I don’t understand, I really don’t understand.
Zhou Yuang then looked at Jiang Yuan for help: "Yuanzi, is Su Xiaoyu usually like this?"
Jiang Yuan nodded with amusement: "Xiao Yu has always had this habit. Even when he was not feeling well, he would forget his meals when he was so engrossed in watching something. So Uncle Su and Aunt Lin were very worried about Xiao Yu in the past."
Zhou Yuang frowned and thought for a while, then said with emotion: "I now understand why you acted like an old woman when you were taking care of him."
Since joining the S Province Sports Team and the national team, Zhou Yuang has seen that Su Yu has strong self-care abilities. He once couldn't understand why Jiang Yuan looked at him like a three-year-old child.
But now it seems that Su Xiaoyu is so obsessed with studying that he doesn't even feel hungry. He is not even as good as a three-year-old child!
Zhou Yuang was about to go over and pat Su Yu on the shoulder, but was stopped by Jiang Yuan. Jiang Yuan then walked up to Su Yu and called out loudly again, which woke Su Yu up from his trance.
After hearing Jiang Yuan's voice, Su Yu was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Jiang Yuan, and then looked at the time on his mobile phone.
"Ah... six o'clock."
Su Yu immediately took off his noise-cancelling headphones and turned around to find that Zhou Yuang was there too.
"Brother, Angzi, you are here?"
Zhou Yuang stepped forward and rubbed Su Yu's head, complaining: "I called you several times, but no one answered. I almost thought something happened to you! Who dares not to come and see?"
Hearing Zhou Yuang's complaints, Su Yu's ears turned slightly red.
He hadn't expected that his initial escape-style obsession with studying would become so addictive.
Jiang Yuan smiled and rubbed his head: "Okay, it's good that you're okay. Let's go to the cafeteria to eat first. Ye Zi and Hui Zi are still waiting for us."
Hearing this, Su Yu obediently responded with a "OK".
It was getting late, so the three of them didn't delay and quickly went to the national team's cafeteria, where they found Ye Minghao and Jiang Ruohui who had already reserved seats.
After arriving at the restaurant, Ye Minghao asked them why they were so late, and Zhou Yuang immediately complained mercilessly -
"You don't know, just before dinner, Yuanzi called Su Xiaoyu five or six times, but she didn't answer any of them. Yuanzi and I were so scared that we thought Su Xiaoyu was not feeling well again."
"When we rushed to Dormitory 303, we saw this guy wearing noise-canceling headphones and immersed in studying. He was staring at something on a webpage that I couldn't understand at all, forgetting to eat and sleep... This was the first time I saw someone who was so obsessed with studying that he forgot to eat..."
As Zhou Yuang spoke, he recalled the scribbles that filled the entire screen. It was truly a mask of pain.
Ye Minghao and Jiang Ruohui didn't expect that this would be the reason, but after seeing Su Yu pursing his lips embarrassedly, they didn't intend to continue teasing him, but changed the subject.
Jiang Ruohui smiled and said, "Today I mentioned to the coaches in charge of the 100m and 400m at the training camp that I want to try switching events or running multiple events."
After hearing this, Su Yu asked, "Did it succeed?"
Jiang Ruohui smiled and nodded, and asked him: "Xiaoyu, did you mention this to Coach Pei last night?"
After hearing Jiang Ruohui's question, Su Yu paused and nodded in acknowledgement.
