Li Zhi held his eyes, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes: "There is also a world of its own on the field, this is actually very normal."
Very normal? Yang Lan'er was stunned. Does that mean this is true? So that person deliberately tripped Liu Yu?
You know, the 100-meter sprint event only takes less than ten seconds.
Compared to hurdles, the 100-meter sprint is more about absolute speed. If someone trips you halfway, it's good enough if you don't break any bones. If it's more serious, like breaking your spine or ribs, it can be fatal!
Which country's players openly commit murder on the field?
"What does the IAAF say?" Yang Lan'er thought, how could the country not know about something that even Li Zhi knew? They must have investigated it, and only then could they be sure that it was intentional.
"Well, what can I say? The runway is so wide, it's normal to find accidents!" Li Zhi said this with some sarcasm: "In fact, this kind of thing is not uncommon."
"Not uncommon?" Yang Lan'er exclaimed. This is murder, isn't it uncommon?
"How should I put it? The competition among countries seems a bit fierce. If a country has a good player, it is most likely to cause trouble in an ordinary competition. If it is a big competition, it is actually the safest." Li Zhi got to know some of the inside stories of this circle because his father was concerned about Liu Yu's leg.
"If you do well, you have to be tampered with? Then why don't they target athletes from developed track and field countries?" Yang Lan'er was embarrassed, and suddenly thought of something. In her previous life, in the Golden League or something, wasn't Liu Xiang also hit and fell on the track? Could it be that there was something fishy going on here?
Of course, this is all speculation. No one knows the real situation. After all, it is a high-speed competition. Is there time to think too much? Li Zhi smiled and said, "I used to think so, but after someone told me, I seemed to understand that it is not cost-effective for those players!"
Still cost-effective? Yang Lan'er was annoyed. What kind of metaphor is this?
Li Zhi quickly explained: "Developed countries with track and field experience have many athletes and great competition. If one is eliminated, someone will naturally come up, which actually helps them. But in China, how many years does it take to produce a good sprinter? In international competitions, they couldn't even make it to the finals before."
Hearing this, Yang Lan'er nodded. So, this targeted approach is indeed more cost-effective!
"Liu Yu participated in the Olympics two years ago when he was only sixteen years old. That means he can still run for at least another ten years and participate in two more Olympic Games. However, it is unlikely that China will be able to produce a second Liu Yu within ten years." Li Zhi said solemnly.
Therefore, if this person makes some trouble, China will be silent for many more years. This deal is really a good deal.
Although the IAAF has banned the culprit, it still can't save the situation. They may not just lack such an athlete.
As to whether it is an estimate or not, outsiders have no way of judging. Even though most people know it, there is no evidence.
"Tsk, the track is actually very wide. A hundred meters passes in a flash. How can you make it to the finals if you run off the track and trip others?" Yang Lan'er complained. Isn't this a technical problem?
In fact, the track is wider than what you see on TV. Everyone runs in his or her own lane and is unlikely to bump into others. This is more difficult than hurdling.
Even the dumbest person knows that a straight line is the shortest distance and that the 100-meter result can be calculated to three decimal places. Running one more step is a waste of time!
Would everyone know that such a low-level mistake could be made in a final with players from many countries participating?
"So, China can only accept it." Li Zhi frowned. If China had so many backups, why would it be afraid of these? "So, Liu Yu is only eighteen years old this year?" Yang Lan'er asked, pretending not to know. She found this when she touched the bones just now, so she dared to say that it would take two months to recover.
"Yeah!" Li Zhi was stunned, not knowing what Yang Lan'er meant.
"So, his recovery might be even better than I expected. Boys' bodies mature later, and eighteen years old is still in the developmental stage." Yang Lan'er said lightly. In fact, she admired this type of athlete very much.
At the age of 16, she participated in international competitions and competed with the world's top players. What a huge potential! No wonder foreign countries want to make a move.
If hurdles can compensate for speed to a certain extent with skills, then the 100-meter dash depends entirely on absolute speed and is also a test of physical fitness. China may not be able to produce one in a hundred years.
Thinking of this, Yang Lan'er was no longer so distressed about the things she was about to use. After all, they were young men who brought glory to the country, right? Perhaps she was subconsciously admiring them, so she subconsciously thought of using some of the things in the space.
In fact, Yang Lan'er admired Liu Xiang very much in her previous life, even though he retired with such a tragic ending and was also burdened with some infamy in the end.
However, many things are created by the media. They praise people when they are doing well and step on them when they are in trouble. What they want is news and attention. Have they ever thought about how innocent the protagonists of their reports are?
No matter what, the hard training back then was not fake, and the sweat and tears shed back then were not in vain. It is very difficult for Chinese people to reach such a height in those events. I guess in addition to talent, they also have to work twice as hard.
After being hurt, not only do you not get any care, but you are also stepped on in various ways. It’s crazy to think about it.
Anyway, Yang Lan'er sympathized with the complicated psychological process involved. She always felt that no matter what happened later, the honor that they brought back to the country could not be completely erased.
So, when she saw Liu Yu, who won the silver medal at the age of sixteen, Yang Lan'er subconsciously wanted to cure him, rather than let the news be exposed, end his professional career, and disappear from the field in a flash.
I guess the culprit is still laughing! Nothing could be more embarrassing than Liu Yu recovering and winning the gold medal on the court again.
With the coordination of Li Zhi and Li Xian, the operation time was quickly arranged for the morning three days later.
If it weren't for waiting for Liu Yu to adjust his body and get it in the best condition for surgery, this time could be advanced a little.
Moreover, knowing that Meng Po was going to perform surgery on Liu Yu and claimed that he would be able to resume a small amount of training in two months, many people who knew the situation were shocked and concerned.
In particular, Liu Yu's original attending physician flew to Shudu City almost that same day, came to the affiliated hospital, and asked to enter the operating room to watch.
However, Yang Lan'er didn't say anything, and Li Xian didn't dare to agree on his own. He still wanted to go in, but it might not be possible.
Considering Meng Po's achievements on the website and her reputation in the hospital, no one doubted it, which made Yang Lan'er feel relieved. It seems that disguising herself as she is now definitely has many benefits.
