The dumb coach speaks
Qu Chi smiled, but Sun Yimian's words aroused her curiosity again.
Does this song have this effect?
The soothing music rang in my ears, and it was indeed peaceful.
It's like a sunny afternoon in autumn, with no waves and a breeze blowing on the lake surface, without a ripple, which makes the listener's heart fall into the deep valley. It is a feeling of floating in the air, with no landing point, allowing the consciousness to be intoxicated.
It was impossible to tell what kind of instrument it was, but it slowly sounded like pebbles in a lake. Birds were also circling over the deep valley, awakening the souls that had fallen into the deep forest, giving everything a sense of purpose.
Just as Sun Yimian said, she suddenly had the desire to rush up from the deep valley, breaking through all barriers just to see the sky higher.
But Qu Chi did not wake up, she just fell asleep with this mood.
When he realized that he was in a dream, Qu Chi was still a little confused because the scene today had changed again.
The girl with the ponytail was warming up. I had never seen her warming up before.
But Qu Chi was overjoyed. She recognized Ponytail's strength and agreed that warm-up was one of the keys to performing well in the game. Since Mawei was willing to teach, she learned.
After completing a set of stretching exercises, lift your head with your ponytail, jump on the spot, let the forefoot touch the ground and relax, then move the right leg.
Qu Chi did as he was told.
Then she heard a helpless voice.
“You don’t need to learn this.”
She had never spoken before, and the mute coach finally turned on the player?
In the dream, she had no emotions and was not frightened. Instead, she had a conversation with Ponytail like this:
"You did it, didn't you? You did it all. What if it helps your grades?"
Ponytail sighed again: "This is because my right leg is injured. This is a subconscious action to confirm that my leg is okay."
Qu Chi was surprised: "Have you been injured?"
Mawei didn't answer and squatted in front of the starting blocks again, waiting for Qu Chi to get ready.
In each round-robin race, Qu Chi followed Ma Wei to learn. She would add warm-up to every race. Qu Chi felt that this method was really suitable for her. Even in her dreams, she could feel that she was running more easily.
When the alarm clock rang, Qu Chi opened his eyes and woke up, staring at the ceiling in a daze, waiting for consciousness to slowly return.
She opened her phone and saw several new messages congratulating her on her successful advancement to the semi-finals. She sat up and scrolled through the contacts on her phone, but did not see any congratulations from Qin Chengmo.
Maybe he just didn't pay attention? Qu Chi unconsciously clicked on his WeChat Moments. The last post was about an opera house in the Southern Hemisphere. He must be busy right now.
Qu Chi liked his message.
Sun Yimian hasn't woken up yet. Their schedules are slightly different. Qu Chi also wants to be lazy today and plans to get up half an hour later.
The song I listened to last night was composed by CuiMo. Qu Chi stared at it for a while and decided to take a screenshot and send it to Qin Chengmo.
【Music: This song is very nice, I want to share it with you. 】
It's normal to share your favorite songs with a musician.
Qu Chi nodded calmly. He didn't expect Qin Chengmo to reply immediately. After all, he should still be in another time zone.
But Qin Chengmo replied quickly.
Qin: Thank you.
Qin: I wrote this song. I'm honored that you like it. I haven't told you anything about my composition style, so I'm very happy that you like it.
Qin: Are you up now? You've worked so hard! Good luck in today's game.
[Qin: Do you want to listen to more songs? I have some songs that I like and can share them with you.]
Qin: I wish you good luck in the competition. I will always support you.
As expected of someone who can play the violin, his hands seem to be very fast and he sent many messages in a row. Qu Chi touched the corner of his mouth and found that he was smiling happily.
Although Qin Chengmo is not here, he must be paying attention to her news.
She couldn't explain why she was a little concerned about whether Qin Chengmo was still paying attention to and supporting her, but she vaguely felt that it might be because Qin Chengmo was the first person she "met" who supported her to continue running, so she really wanted him to keep watching her.
Qu Chi threw his phone aside, wrapped himself in the quilt, turned over and sat up with a dazed mind.
My heartbeat is a little fast, it should be a reminder for me to get up and do some maintenance training.
Qu Chi got out of bed, thought about it, and then slid over the bed and picked up his cell phone.
Reply to the message.
[Music: Your song is very nice. It helped me sleep well. Thank you.]
Then he suppressed his unstable heartbeat in the morning and went to the bathroom to wash up silently.
Today's match starts at 9:12 pm local time, which is a little after 3 am in China.
For spectators who truly love track and field competitions, this time is not too late. After all, they are allowed to stay up late to watch the games, so why not let them stay up all night for the events they support?
They will probably stay up all night. No matter how Qu Chi performs in today's semi-finals, their mood will probably make it difficult to sleep.
Qu Chi came to the familiar stadium, accompanied by He Yang and a group of coaches.
"There's a pre-race interview for domestic events soon. We have plenty of time, and the reporters won't make things difficult for you. I'm just sharing the good news that you've made it to the semifinals. The domestic broadcast didn't include the entire event, and track and field fans are quite dissatisfied with that."
He Yang said with a smile, Qu Chi nodded and listened.
He Yang added, "There are no other important matches in the same time slot tonight, so perhaps the organizers will broadcast the entire event live."
Qu Chi smiled: "Then should I prepare to say hello to the audience in front of the TV?"
He Yang patted her lightly: "You are really not nervous at all, and you are joking."
She was so nervous.
Qu Chi raised the corner of his mouth: "It's okay, whether anyone is watching me or not, I will run well."
He Yang murmured, "Yeah, that's right. I can't overthink it. Oh no, you're really not nervous, are you? I'm telling you, the team hasn't issued any military orders. It's a miracle that you can participate in the World Championships. Don't put pressure on yourself."
Qu Chi shook his head: "There won't be any pressure."
He Yang didn't say anything else, for fear that saying too much would upset Qu Chi's mood.
She sighed silently in her heart. As a coach, she actually played a small role in Qu Chi's growth. It was almost Qu Chi's talent that carried the banner all the way. It was not only that she did not help much with technical skills, but also Qu Chi looked like a veteran in his mentality.
All I can say is that the so-called well-rounded talented players can even regulate their emotions steadily during the game.
Qu Chi accepted pre-match interviews from two media programs.
Yu Changqing and Xu Hua introduced themselves. They are both veterans of long-distance running in domestic track and field events. When they were reporting news abroad, they often interviewed strong events such as women's hammer throw, women's javelin and race walking, which are sure to perform well in the World Championships.
Sending back news like this can also cheer people up.
The women's 400 meters was their first interview.
"Hello, Qu Chi. Let's chat briefly. Your performance in the preliminaries was truly impressive, and domestic track and field fans are excited about your achievement. How do you feel about successfully advancing?"
Qu Chi: "Happy."
The atmosphere was a little awkward, and Qu Chi didn't think he was to blame, but he still kindly added something.
"Being able to achieve good results at the World Championships is something that is very gratifying for me personally. I am very happy to know that there are many audiences in China who support me."
Yu Changqing felt a little relieved. Although they didn't know each other well and there were no good topics to talk about, Qu Chi was obviously someone who was willing to speak, which was also good.
Xu Hua also asked, "Qu Chi, you've already broken your own best in the preliminaries. We're all happy for you, but the 400-meter race is very physically demanding, and you put in a lot of effort in the preliminaries. Will yesterday's race have any impact on your physical fitness today?"
Qu Chi: "Not bad. Although it was two consecutive days, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, I had almost a full day of rest. My physical strength has almost recovered, so it didn't have much of an impact."
"That's great. I look forward to your performance today."
The two reporters were indeed not going to make things difficult for anyone, just as He Yang said, but this made the entire interview look dull and without any highlights, including Xu Hua's question about physical fitness, which was obviously intended to relieve the pressure on Qu Chi. If she didn't perform well in the semi-finals, it meant that her physical fitness had not recovered yet, and let everyone remember that she had made history in the preliminaries.
As the interviewee, Qu Chi had no objection and was quite grateful to the two reporters.
So she took the initiative and said, "I didn't run my best in the preliminaries, so I hope to have a good run in the semifinals."
The two reporters' hands trembled, feeling excited and worried.
Qu Chi is making a big promise.
This was an interview, so of course they could edit it, but after hearing what Qu Chi said, they were reluctant to delete it. If this is sent back to China, it will definitely be a small hit. Apart from anything else, the audience's expectations will definitely be high.
If something really happened to Qu Chi... Bah bah bah.
