It was midsummer in Beijing at the end of June 2001.
The sun was scorching the earth, the air seemed to be distorted, and a vague heat wave filled the track and field ground.
Liu Xiang had just finished a round and was sitting in the shade under the stands, drinking a bottle of mineral water in one breath.
Speaking of Liu Xiang, everyone in later generations is naturally familiar with it, but in the summer of 2001, he was just a fledgling hurdler star.
(Everyone should know his name. To avoid suspicion, Lao Wang can only use this word instead!)
Liu Xiang was born in the "Magic City" Shanghai in July 1983. He has shown extraordinary athletic talent since he was a child.
When he was just 7 years old, Zhong Suogui, the coach of the track and field team of Guannong Xincun Primary School in Shanghai, took a fancy to this child at first sight and selected him into the school track and field team. From then on, he began his brilliant track and field career.
Since then, he has been coaching sprinters, but when he was in the fourth grade of elementary school, he was selected by teacher Gu Baogang to coach long jump at Shanghai Putuo District Youth Sports School.
In 1996, after a 100-meter sprint competition in Shanghai, Liu Xiang was spotted by Fang Shuiquan, the second-line coach of the track and field team of Shanghai Institute of Sports Technology, and then began to practice hurdles.
In the same year, Liu Xiang won the 110-meter hurdles Group B championship in the Shanghai Youth Track and Field Championships. This was also Liu Xiang's first hurdle championship in his life.
In 1997, Liu Xiang once again won the 110-meter hurdles Group B championship in the Shanghai Youth Track and Field Championships. He then transferred to Yichuan Middle School, a traditional track and field school in Shanghai. From then on, he trained while studying, and his sprint performance improved rapidly.
Many fans know what happened after that. Liu Xiang was selected for the Chinese track and field team in 1999.
In October 2000, Liu Xiang finished fourth in the men's 110-meter hurdles at the World Youth Championships in Santiago, Chile, with a time of 13.87 seconds. A month later, Liu Xiang won third place in the indoor competition in Lyon, France.
On May 6, 2001, Liu Xiang won first place at the National Track and Field Championships and Grand Prix Series with a time of 13.32 seconds.
On May 24, Liu Xiang won first place at the East Asian Games in Osaka with a time of 13.42 seconds.
He will participate in the World University Games in August this year and the National Games in November, so Liu Xiang has been stepping up preparations during this period.
Liu Xiang, who is only 18 years old, still has a hint of immaturity on his face, but he has been holding back a lot of energy in his heart.
Who says that yellow people can¡¯t win the world championship in sprint events?
He vowed to break the black monopoly in sprint events!
"Huhhuh" After taking a few deep breaths, Liu Xiang raised his head and cast his gaze towards the center of the runway.
A girl with a high ponytail started running quickly after hearing the starting gun. She skillfully crossed one hurdle after another and ran across the finish line like lightning.
Liu Xiang had a smile on his face. Seeing the girl walking towards him, he stood up and twisted his waist, then shook his legs.
¡°Many people see athletes always moving here and there when being interviewed, and think their behavior is not dignified at all. In fact, this is a complete misunderstanding.
??Athletes actually do this kind of movement just to stretch their bodies, and in most cases they are completely unconscious.
Just like many people often take the mobile phone into their hands unconsciously, maybe they never thought about playing with the mobile phone at this time
The girl walked up to Liu Xiang with a moving smile on her face: "Brother, how was my run just now?"
Liu Xiang smiled and said: "It's okay. It would be better if the rhythm between the columns was more stable! Zi Lin, you have made great progress during this period!"
The girl smiled and said: "Of course, I have been practicing so hard during this period. If I don't make any progress, I might as well give up track and field and become a model!"
This girl, whom Liu Xiang calls "Zilin", is over 1.8 meters tall, only slightly shorter than Liu Xiang.
¡°And she is beautiful and has a pretty good figure. Her two long, straight legs can make countless girls jealous to death. This condition is perfect for being a model.
Liu Xiang smiled and said: "Being a model is better than going to a beauty pageant. If you participate in a beauty pageant, you will definitely win the championship in competitions like 'Miss Universe' and 'Miss World'!"
"Oh Senior Brother, I will be proud if you say that!" The girl smiled, "By the way, Senior Brother, you are not from Shanghai, can you do me a favor?"
Liu Xiang smiled and asked: "Tell me, what do you want me to do for you?"
&nbsThe account is over.
"This damn girl!" Liu Xiang smiled bitterly, packed up his things and returned to the dormitory.
¡°The first four tickets cost 1,200 yuan these days, which is indeed not cheap. It is equivalent to a month¡¯s salary of an ordinary working class in Beijing.
Liu Xiang¡¯s performance has been getting better and better in the past two years, and he also won a place in the international competition this year. However, he did not receive much income from this, so he is really not stingy. He really cannot afford to invite his junior sisters to watch the game.
¡°If we win a gold medal at the Athens Olympics in a few years, what does a few tickets costing more than a thousand yuan mean?
????????????????????????????????? In Cantonese terms, it¡¯s sprinkle the water!
At the same time, Wang Dalin had just arrived in Shanghai, an international metropolis, and finally reported to the national team.
How did he know that he actually had a little crush in Beijing?
In fact, he had finished all the games in the 2000-2001 season in early June, but he could not return to China immediately to report to the national team because he still had many things to deal with.
First of all, Schwartz helped him make appointments with many brands for endorsement negotiations, including "Versace" and "Giorgio Armani", two world-class clothing brands, as well as "Omega", "Patek Philippe", "Rolex", Watch brands such as "Vacheron Constantin" and "Tissot".
Of course, Schwartz also interviewed Ford, Cadillac, Chrysler, Chevrolet and other car brands He really looked down upon Wang Dalin's Raptor.
This kind of pickup truck in the United States of this era is an agricultural vehicle!
You said that you, a well-known NBA star, actually drive a farm vehicle You yourself are shameless, and I, as an agent, want to be shameless!
Although Wang Dalin did not have to come forward during the negotiation, he still had to come forward in person when the contract was finally signed. The agent could not help him sign the contract, so he really couldn't return to China for a while.
What¡¯s more, he has just played a whole season, 82 games in the regular season and 13 games in the playoffs. They were all high-intensity games, and he really deserves a good rest.
¡°After all, he is only 19 years old. According to normal people, he is still growing up. If he gets injured due to excessive fatigue, it will be a bit outweighed by the gain.
This is not alarmist. Think about why Chairman Yao was frequently injured back then.
NBA players can rest for at least four months every year. Some players who don¡¯t have to play in the playoffs can even rest from April to September Why do they have to rest for so long?
That¡¯s because after a long season, they really need to take such a long break!
If you continue to participate in high-intensity games during the offseason, like Chairman Yao, you are likely to suffer sports injuries due to excessive fatigue. The most common one is "stress fracture", which is caused by excessive fatigue. fracture.
After playing in the playoffs, Wang Dalin found that his overall durability had dropped to 92. This was not a good sign!
Although the overall durability of 92 is quite high, who knows when injuries will suddenly strike? He does not have the "Copper Skin and Iron Bone Badge" now. If he is really fouled by someone, he may suddenly be injured at any time.
So Wang Dalin patiently took a good rest for a period of time. He just practiced shooting or dribbling for a few hours every day, which was enough to maintain his condition.
Soon the time came to the end of June. Wang Dalin signed three endorsement contracts for "Versace", "Tissot" and "Ford" respectively, and finally boarded a plane back to China.
In fact, the average annual quotation given by "Giorgio Armani" is slightly higher than that of "Versace", but Wang Dalin prefers the brand "Versace", and the endorsement contract period of "Versace" is only three years, which is higher than that of other brands. One year lessWang Dalin definitely hopes to sign a short-term contract.
Watch brand Schwartz helped him choose "Tissot", of course because "Tissot" has the highest price, and this brand focuses on sports and leisure styles, which is more suitable for Wang Dalin's current age.
As for the car brandSchwartz was indeed a little speechless.
Wang Dalin still chose to sign for Ford. The reason turned out to be that he really liked Ford F-series pickup trucks and felt that this large-sized car was the most suitable for him.
After signing the contract, Schwartz had already cursed in his heart - "You deserve to drive an agricultural vehicle for the rest of your life!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
