All-round Athlete

Chapter 212 Come to seek abuse?

"Indian trapeze? Is it the kind that is shot out with small cannons in the circus? What kind of guys are they, cats and dogs will challenge me." Zhang Guan said with a smile.

Director Yu glanced at the photos published in the magazine and said, "This man is called Matthews Binu, an Indian 400-meter sprinter. Don't underestimate him. He has participated in the semi-finals of the Athens Olympics. It is estimated that he will be the last A good score can reach 45 seconds!"

Zhang Guan shook his head: "I don't know, and I don't have any impression. I remember that India seems to only play cricket. When did such a track and field player appear?"

Director Yu thought for a while and said, "In fact, India still has some good track and field athletes, especially the 400-meter sprint event, which is the strength of the Indians, probably only slightly worse than Japan."

"The strength is the 400-meter sprint?" Zhang Guan suddenly remembered a news from later generations, saying that a female champion of the 400-meter sprint in India was a transgender athlete. Zhang Guan also went to check the photo of the female athlete at that time. Really manly.

"Actually, when I was young, India's sports level was quite good. There were some outstanding players in various sports, but many of them were born in the British colonial period." Director Yu said, and Zhang Guan held I brought it over from the magazine, and said: "Don't pay attention to these tabloids. Before the big competitions like the Asian Games, many athletes also started to hype themselves. Now you are the most famous track and field athlete in the world. Naturally, someone will use your fame to come here. Hype yourself, Indians are just bragging at a higher level, and when you arrive in Qatar, you may see more similar news.”

"I understand, the king with a strong mouth. Everyone is coming to make headlines next to me!" Zhang Guan smiled, and then asked: "To be honest, I really don't like the 400-meter sprinters in other Asian countries. I understand. After all, I have never encountered Asian 400-meter athletes in the international arena before. Is there any special attention among them?"

"The 400-meter level of Asian athletes is generally not as good as that of Europe and the United States. In the previous East Asian Games, you also competed with the Japanese. That Kanemaru Yuzo is considered the strongest level in East Asia. West Asia is slightly stronger than East Asia. Saudi Arabia, Kewell, Qatar, and Iran all have Olympic A-level athletes. Among them, Saudi Arabia is the strongest, and all of them are naturalized African athletes. For you, you need to pay special attention to Really not, but if there are black players, just pay attention to it, the blacks are all naturalized from Africa, and they are stronger than the native Asian players." Director Yu introduced.

"Speaking of the Naturalized Legion, I suddenly thought of a person, that Samuel Francis, the Nigerian I met at the Doha Grand Prix last time, has he become a Qatari now?" Zhang Guan suddenly asked road.

"I haven't heard of this, but even if she is naturalized in Qatar, she will not be able to participate in this year's competition according to the rules. It is estimated that she will not be able to represent Qatar in the international competition until 2007." Director Yu explained.

...

The Doha Asian Games is about to start, and for the media, they also have an additional focus, and the host of the Asian Games this time is in Qatar, so the media from West Asian countries are the most enthusiastic about the Doha Asian Games.

At this time, Rabah, the editor of "Flower of the Bay", was preparing a warm-up report on the Qatar Asian Games.

"At the Asian Games, China, Japan, and South Korea almost won most of the gold medals. The gold medals won by all the countries in West Asia are definitely not as good as China. The strong items of China, Japan, and South Korea are just mentioned in one stroke. It is better to write about what we are good at. project.” Labah thought while entering the website of the Doha Asian Games.

"Athletics is still the number one sport. The athletics of China and Japan are still very strong in Asia. Originally, we, the Gulf countries, had naturalized some African athletes who could win a gold medal in the sprint event, but China has produced a Guan, all the world records of 100 meters, 200 meters and 400 meters have been taken. The world record holder came to participate in the Asian Games. It seems that the gold medal in the sprint event must belong to Zhang Guan. By the way, I heard that Zhang Guan also won the gold medal a few days ago A long jump world champion, maybe this time the long jump champion will be won by Zhang Guan!"

Labach clicked the mouse, skipped the previous few sprint events, and found the middle distance run directly.

"Middle-distance running has always been the strength of our West Asian countries. This time the champion must be our West Asian country. I guess the Bahrainis should be very promising. Let's rewrite the middle-distance running events and analyze the 800-meter and 1500-meter races. The audience will definitely like to see how Mi Mi wins the championship." While thinking, Labach found the list of contestants.

"Let me see who is participating in the men's 800m. Bahrain's Kamel, Ramzi and Ali all participated, Kuwait's Al-Arzemi, Iran's Moerhejaai and Mu Dila, Qatar's Suleiman and Bashar Najim, Saudi Arabia's Al-Shalih, Japanese players Yokota Masato and Suzuki Naoto, China's... what? Zhang Guan!" Rabah directly called out Zhang Guan name.

"It's the same name!" Labach immediately clicked on the athlete's information, and the photo showed that it was indeed Zhang Guan.

"Zhang Guan signed up for the 800m? I'm not dreaming! When did he start running the middle distance? Did the organizers make a mistake?" Labach was a little confused. He couldn't wait to open the search engine and search for " Zhang Guan 800 meters" content.

Relevant content immediately appeared on the webpage, and the title on the top was "Zhang Guan announces that he will enter middle distance running".

Labach clicked on the news immediately, which were some records of the interview with Zhang Guan after the Athletics World Cup.

"Zhang Guan said he wants to participate in the 800-meter and 1,500-meter races in the Asian Games? But he is a sprinter!" Rabach read the report carefully, and then immediately went to check the registration information for the 1,500-meter race in the Doha Asian Games. Then he really saw Zhang Guan's name again.

"Zhang Guan really participated in the 800-meter and 1500-meter races in the Asian Games! Why didn't I notice such important news before!" Labach thought a little annoyed, and then continued to search for Zhang Guan's participation in the middle-distance race. For related news, I found that the only thing circulating on the Internet was the interview after the World Cup of Athletics, and there was no other information other than that.

The influence of the Athletics World Cup is far less than that of the Athletics World Championships. If there are no competitors from their own country, many countries even bother to report it. It's more about the final game results, and how many people pay attention to the interviews after the game.

Of course, if Rabach uses a Chinese search website to search for Chinese, he will definitely find the news that Zhang Guan broke the national record of 800 meters and 1500 meters. See Zhang Guan's domestic competition situation.

"This is big news! The king of sprinting, Zhang Guan, will participate in the middle-distance race in the Asian Games! It's exciting to think about it. Headlines, this will definitely be the headlines of today's sports!" Rabach thought excitedly.

...

Bahrain.

Bella Mansor Ali rushed into the waiting room excitedly, and said, "What you said a few days ago turned out to be true. Zhang Guan signed up for the Asian Games middle-distance race!"

Ali put an Arabic newspaper on the table, and Kamel who was next to him immediately picked it up, read it quickly, and then said in amazement: "Zhang Guan really signed up? I thought he was only talking about it when he was interviewed." !"

Rashid Ramzi on the side showed an expected expression, and then said: "I told you a long time ago, don't underestimate Zhang Guan's determination, once an athlete of his level has a goal , will definitely do it.”

"Relax, Rashid." Kamel threw it to Ramzi casually, and continued: "Look at the professional sports commentators behind, they are not optimistic about Zhang Guan, so, I think, this Doha Asian Games It is a good opportunity for us to beat Zhang Guan. Although it is a long-distance running event, it should be a wonderful thing to beat the world's first flying man! Don't forget that I am the 800m champion of this track and field World Cup. I will use reality Tell Zhang Guan that the middle-distance running event is not something he can get involved in."

As Carmel said, at this time, the sports media in West Asia were full of negative voices about Zhang Guan, and there were many people who questioned Zhang Guan's mid-distance running level, and there were also people who directly said that Zhang Guan was overestimated. Some sports professionals even used the "persuasion flow" to directly and publicly express the hope that Zhang Guan can withdraw from the middle-distance running competition in the Asian Games.

In fact, this situation is not difficult to understand. Middle-distance running has always been the traditional strength of West Asian countries. Before that, even Japan, the Asian track and field powerhouse, was far inferior to athletes from West Asian countries in middle-distance running. Now that Zhang Guan wants to enter this field, he will definitely encounter a lot of doubts and resistance.

For example, one day the king of tennis Federer announced that he would come to China to play table tennis. The first impression of Chinese people must be that Federer is joking. Although you are the king of tennis, aren’t you looking for abuse when you come to China to play table tennis? And if Federer really appears in the table tennis arena, I believe everyone will think that sending any second-tier player from the national team can blow Federer away.

At present, the middle-distance runners in West Asia also have this kind of mentality. Everyone thinks that you are a sprinter, even if you are the king of sprinting in the world, but you are looking for abuse when you come to participate in the middle-distance running event of the Asian Games.
