All-round Athlete

Chapter 106 The King of Track and Field

Moscow in the early morning is unusually quiet, there is no noise, no hustle and bustle. The snow had stopped, and a ray of bright sunshine appeared in the sky, and then sprinkled her brilliance on the snow, but this kind of brilliance was as young and weak as a newborn baby, unable to melt even a little bit of snow. Let the snow-white earth be brighter.

Zhang Guan slowly opened his eyes and found that it was dawn, and then he remembered something that happened last night.

"She won't leave again!" Zhang Guan immediately turned his head, only to find that Sharapova was lying beside him, staring at him, and there was a trace of tears in the corner of her eyes, and her golden hair was floating in the air. On the snow-white pillow, the wheat-like healthy complexion looks even more exotic. For a while, Zhang Guan was stunned.

"The ancients said that beauty is picturesque, uh, no, this is a western girl, so it should be considered an oil painting!" Zhang Guan thought to himself.

"Are you awake?" Sharapova added, "I just woke up too."

"I'm sorry..." Zhang Guan said subconsciously.

"Why apologise?" Sharapova asked.

"You're crying." Zhang Guan thought it might be his fault.

"It's not because of you." Sharapova took a deep breath and continued, "It's just that when I just woke up, I felt a little wronged and a little confused."

Zhang Guan was taken aback for a moment, and then suddenly realized that she was still a girl under the age of 18 after all, maybe all the sudden things happened these days made her a little hard to accept, maybe he was under tremendous pressure all the time.

"I started playing tennis when I was five years old..." Sharapova began to tell everything about her. She started learning to play tennis at the age of five. At the age of nine, her father sold her property and brought her across the ocean to the United States. At that time, they had no money. In order to support her playing tennis, her father worked several odd jobs. And Sharapova also focused all her attention on tennis, because she knew that only tennis could change her life. This kind of life passed for five years, until 2000, when Sharapova won the first championship in her life. Although it was only the championship of the junior group, it was enough to attract the attention of many people. Then she got sponsorship, although the money is not much, but at least it can greatly improve their lives. Then in 2001, Sharapova participated in the professional league for the first time. In 2002, Sharapova, who was only 15 years old, boarded the WTA (International Women's Professional Tennis Federation) stage, and played in Wimbledon and Australia. In 2003, Sharapova won the first WTA tour championship, and then the 2004 Wimbledon Grand Slam.

Zhang Guan listened quietly. He could imagine that a nine-year-old girl must have experienced many difficulties in a place like the United States. She might be discriminated against, unfairly treated, or even subjected to school violence... But But she persevered with great effort, endured enormous pressure, and then stood at the pinnacle of the world.

Zhang Guan suddenly felt that compared with Sharapova, he was simply a softie. She is strong, she is persistent, she works hard, she has made achievements, and she is just a cheater relying on the system.

"What about you? Zhang, tell me about you..." Sharapova said.

"Okay, Sharapova." Zhang Guan suddenly changed his voice and asked, "What should I call you now? Maria?"

"You still call me Martha!" Sharapova said.

"Okay, Martha." Zhang Guan hugged Sharapova tightly and said, "My family is very ordinary, neither rich nor poor. I was also ordinary when I was young, and Like ordinary people, I went to kindergarten, elementary school, junior high school, and high school. Then I took part in an athlete test, was spotted by my coach, and became an athlete. Then I broke the national record and the Asian record. And broke the world record in the Olympics... well, you should know the next thing."

"It's over?" Sharapova asked, her eyes widening.

"It's over." Zhang Guan nodded. He remembered the experience of his previous life and said, "Before the age of seventeen, I was an ordinary person, a very ordinary person, so I lived an ordinary life. If I hadn’t become an athlete, I might have been admitted to a third-rate university, then found an ordinary job, found a wife who is not beautiful but very virtuous, had one or two children, and lived an ordinary life.”

"A normal life, maybe that's fine!" Sharapova nodded thoughtfully, then got up from the bed, picked up the bath towel that fell on the floor, covered her body and walked to the bathroom, saying at the same time : "I have to take a shower."

"Do you want to go together?" Zhang Guan smiled evilly, seeing that Sharapova did not object, he immediately jumped off the bed and followed like a pug.

...

The escort sent by the center spent the night anxiously. In principle, athletes are not allowed to act alone, but Zhang Guan got into someone else's car yesterday. He shouldered the mission of accompanying and supervising Zhang Guan. If anything happened to Guan, he would definitely be held responsible.

Fortunately, he learned at the front desk last night that Zhang Guan had returned, which made him greatly relieved, but early the next morning, he still came to Zhang Guan's door, wanting to ask What the hell happened yesterday.

A waiter came out of Zhang Guan's room pushing a dining cart, with a smile on his face and a tip of one hundred dollars in his hand. Such an income early in the morning was enough for him to spend a whole day The mood of the day is very reserved.

Seeing the waiter, the escort immediately asked, "Have the guests inside gotten up?"

The waiter knew that the oriental man in front of him came with the oriental guest who just tipped him, so he nodded: "Yes, I think they are having breakfast. Uh, I suggest you wait a little while , go disturb him again!"

For the sake of tip, the waiter kindly reminded. But the escort at the center obviously didn't pay attention to the waiter's reminder, let alone notice that the waiter used the word "they".

He walked to the door of Zhang Guan's room and knocked lightly. Not long after, Zhang Guan opened the door. He stepped in and said as he walked, "Zhang Guan, you yesterday..."

He was just halfway through when he saw a blond woman in a nightgown sitting at the table eating breakfast.

Although he didn't recognize Sharapova, how could he not understand what was going on in this scene!

"Uh, it seems that I came at the wrong time, let's talk about it later, later!" He gave Zhang Guan a meaningful look, then quickly walked out of the room, and closed the door for Zhang Guan.

"Young people nowadays are more open-minded! Should I report this matter?" He hesitated, and then said to himself: "Athletes are under a lot of pressure in training and competitions, so they should relax occasionally. Nerves are tense. No wonder I ran away yesterday, it turned out that it was a beautiful woman who had an appointment! But I have to remind Zhang Guan to pay attention to safety."

...

In the room, Sharapova saw Zhang Guan coming back and asked, "Is there any problem?"

"No problem." Zhang Guan shook his head, but secretly pondered whether he should buy something for the escort at the airport duty-free shop to gag him.

Zhang Guan sat next to Sharapova, casually inserted a vegetable leaf, and put it directly in his mouth

"Nothing else?" Sharapova asked.

"I'm going to Germany to participate in an indoor competition. It will be next Thursday. According to the regulations, I can't eat anything, at least meat. Vegetables should be fine." Zhang Guan said.

"Then you can't eat vegetables all the time these days! Athletes can't do without meat," Sharapova said.

"It's okay, I ordered the steak, and the people I brought will go to the kitchen to watch the chef cook it with their own eyes, so that there will be no problem eating it." Zhang Guan paused, and then said: "What about you? You next What's the plan?"

"I'm going to Japan. I thought that if you want to go back to China, I can take the same flight as you. I didn't expect you to stay in Europe." Sharapova continued: "Japan's Pan Pacific Open At the end of the month, the prize money is high, so it's well worth going."

"Yeah, the Japanese like to spend money." Zhang Guan thought of the appearance fee for the Yokohama All-Star Game, and deeply agreed.

...

When two athletes from different fields fall in love, they are destined to get together less and leave more. Both Zhang Guan and Sharapova have endless games, so they are destined not to stay together every day like ordinary lovers .

After a brief good time, Zhang Guan had to separate from Sharapova, and then boarded the plane to Germany, and Sharapova was about to go to Tokyo.

The Sparkson Cup indoor track and field competition is held in Stuttgart, Germany. Compared with the cold Moscow, Stuttgart in the basin is much warmer. Because of the large number of forests around the city, there is no ice and snow in winter, and there are few cold winds. Of course There is less precipitation and the climate is relatively dry.

The vast majority of track and field athletes prefer a dry climate, with less moisture in the air, and electrolytes in muscle cells can bring athletes better explosive power.

After Zhang Guan arrived in Stuttgart, he received a call from He Yiming just as he had completed the procedures for entering the hotel.

"Zhang Guan, your new world record is really timely. I have a very interesting news here. There are more differences within the association regarding our agent team. Now there is a voice that does not affect you for the time being. Participating in the competition, the discussion about the management team will be postponed." He Yiming sighed and continued: "Sports is really about the winner is king, I didn't expect a world record to be so important."

"Then do you want me to add fire?" Zhang Guan asked.

"Fire it up? Why, break another world record?" He Yiming asked with a smile.

"Well, I will work hard and strive for it, and I can almost break the world record." Zhang Guan replied.
