Chapter 686 shocked the whole audience!
Chen Qing admired Director Meng very much and was very humble. "I understand what you mean. Frankly speaking, I also know how difficult it is for athletes, so I wanted to see if she is qualified to be an athlete."
"Okay, then let's see her talent first." Director Meng didn't want to directly reject Chen Qing's face.
She is the director of a sportswear factory, a rare factory that allows athletes to earn some extra money, because the people in the clothing factory will give samples to athletes to wear and let them test whether they are good to use. After the athletes wear them, they will give them away directly and also pay five dollars per person for the testing fee.
Generally, athletes would take their sportswear to others to exchange for other items, and then send the items back home.
So Director Meng cannot cut off the children's way to make extra money.
The two came to the archery range.
The archery range was an open muddy field with several mottled wooden targets at the end. The ring numbers on the target paper were already a little blurred.
There were some training equipment piled up on the sidelines. Several coaches wearing old sports jerseys stood on the sidelines with serious expressions, screening potential good seedlings.
Jing Wei Bo quickly came with Xiao Yu and a group of children.
As soon as Xiaoyu saw her aunt, her eyes lit up and she ran towards her happily.
When Director Meng saw the child's running posture and speed, he could tell at a glance that the child had excellent physical fitness! !
She is also very pretty and looks like a child who was brought up in pampering. Apart from anything else, Chen Qing has nothing to say about her sister's child.
Even if a family is well-off, they may not raise their daughters so well.
Chen Qing squatted down and touched her hair: "I came to see you, just do your best, I believe you can do it."
"OK!"
Xiaoyu clenched her fists, cheered herself up, and was full of energy.
He Yuxiang and others came to Chen Qing's side.
Xiaoyu was called away by Jing Weibao.
When Jing Wei Bo saw Chen Qing standing next to Director Meng, he frowned slightly and felt a little worried.
Athletes' parents are too doting on their children, which is not good...
But I'm here now.
Let’s try Xiaoyu’s talent first.
There is already a template for the archery test process, Jing Wei Bo just needs to follow it.
Basically, you shoot arrows at a fixed distance with a light bow suitable for children, and observe the number of rings and stability.
Someone was already testing at the archery range. Everyone looked at Xiaoyu with a bit of longing in their eyes, because she was wearing Liberation shoes and a beautiful black sportswear. She looked like a city kid who seemed to eat well.
They are all children recommended by sports schools and primary schools.
Most of them have trained for a period of time and have more standard postures. When they shoot arrows, their arms tremble and the arrows' flight trajectories are erratic. Most of them barely hit the target and the number of rings fluctuates.
There is no way. The group of children are dark and thin, and they don’t have enough strength. Even if they have talent, they may not be well trained.
So the kids who came to the training base wanted to stay because they could continue to eat meat!!!
Chen Qing looked at the children at the scene, pursed his lips, and his heart sank a little bit: "It's not easy for them either."
Director Meng felt distressed when he saw her eyes, and hurriedly said, "Yes, they are basically all country kids, with many brothers and sisters. What good food can they eat? Our country needs money everywhere. It's really not easy for us who practice sports."
He hinted wildly.
Chen Qing glanced at Director Meng indifferently.
Director Meng immediately said, "Your niece is going to be tested. Let's take a good look."
It was Xiaoyu's turn to take the on-site test. She picked up the longbow, which was still a bit heavy for her, and stood on the shooting line. Her pair of round almond-shaped eyes, under the guidance of the coach, instantly locked onto the bull's eye in the distance.
Jing Weibo taught her how to shoot arrows.
Chen Qing, He Yuxiang and others became inexplicably nervous.
Xiaoyu followed the coach's instructions, spreading her feet forward and backward and standing steadily.
Holding the bow in her left hand, she tightened the string with three fingers of her right hand. When the bowstring was slowly pulled apart, Xiaoyu's arms and shoulders formed a graceful arc, motionless.
His eyes were slightly narrowed at this moment, all his light focused on the bull's eye in the distance.
Whoosh——
The moment the arrow left the string, everyone's eyes followed the arrow.
The sound of breaking through the air was crisp and short, the arrow accurately hit the center of the target, and the tail feathers trembled slightly.
From raising the bow to hitting the target, the whole process was smooth and fluid.
That is not a standard acquired through training, but an innate sense of rhythm.
The coaches present exchanged glances. They knew that some talents could not be taught.
Director Meng was also shocked.
This action is so beautiful!
In the following basic tests, Xiaoyu's performance was far beyond that of an average person, even perfect!
Director Meng stopped chatting with Chen Qingxian and went up to talk to the coaches. In order to further test her talent, an unconventional project was temporarily added.
The coaches temporarily erected a small marker on the grass in front of the target.
Jing Wei Bo pointed at the small target that moved instantly, "Xiao Yu, try that, shoot it before it falls."
This requirement goes beyond the scope of children's training. Although the movement is slow and the distance is short, it is purely a test of Xiaoyu's personal talent.
Chen Qing held his breath as he watched, he was really nervous!
Xiaoyu's eyes instantly locked onto the thrown ball. She raised the bow again, but this time, her movements were no longer as steady as before. Instead, they were as swift and decisive as when she hunted yesterday.
She had no time to aim precisely, relying entirely on the feel of her hands and her spatial intuition at that moment.
Whoosh——
puff--
The arrow accurately pierced the falling ball!
The ball was carried away by the force of the arrow and landed on the haystack behind.
The entire archery range was silent.
Everyone was stunned.
Including a group of children, their mouths opened wide.
Looking at the ball pierced by the arrow, it was like seeing something incredible.
Maomao clapped excitedly: "Ahhh, Xiaoyu is the best!!!"
There was warm and long-lasting applause from the sidelines.
Xiaoyu turned her head to look over, her eyes curved into crescents as she smiled.
Director Meng looked at Xiaoyu excitedly. Sports really require talent. This child's talent can be seen. It's like he was born with a ruler and a scope.
This kind of concentration and stability far beyond that of ordinary people, as well as this terrifying shooting intuition, is perfect for practicing archery! !
Director Meng has trained Olympic champions, and he understands very well that geniuses in any era will emerge in their own way and make a stunning breakthrough.
"Comrade Xiaoyu, you really need to come to our sports training base."
"I want to ask my aunt." Xiaoyu looked at her aunt standing on the sidelines.
Chen Qing had a feeling that this was expected.
Her daughter Xiaoyu has well-developed athletic ability, is extremely focused in everything she does, and has strong psychological qualities. She seems like a natural athlete, so... she is in a heavy mood.
Because being an athlete means Xiaoyu will suffer for a very long time in the rest of her life.
