Chapter 33: The strength of a first-level athlete

Views:

As a first-class sprint coach, Chen Yuejin is very sensitive to speed. He could feel that Chen Haiyang was very fast just by looking at him.

The results of this group of candidates will be out soon. The first place score was 10.64 seconds.

"10 seconds 64? Did I read that right? 10 seconds 64! How did you run so fast?"

"Manual timing is 0.24 seconds faster than electronic timing. If you add 0.24 seconds to the 10.64 seconds, it is 10.88 seconds. This is enough to meet the standards of national first-class athletes."

"The score line for national first-level athletes in the 100-meter dash is 10.93 seconds based on electronic timing. This result has indeed exceeded the score line for national first-level athletes."

"What are you doing? Athletes with such a high level don't participate in competitions, but join in the fun of tests for second-level athletes! Are they here to increase their presence!"

"I have been a physical education teacher for decades, and this is the first time I have seen this kind of thing. He is obviously a first-level athlete, but he comes to take the test for a second-level athlete. What did this candidate do a few years ago!"

Everyone was talking a lot, and the target of everyone's discussion was naturally Chen Haiyang, who had just run a time of 10.64 seconds.

This is a manual timing result. According to convention, if converted to electronic timing, 0.24 seconds need to be added. Therefore, the hand timing score of 10 seconds 64 can be regarded as the electronic timing score of 10 seconds 88. The standard line for national first-level athletes in the 100-meter sprint in track and field is 10.93 seconds. In terms of performance, Chen Haiyang has reached the level of a national first-level athlete.

But Chen Haiyang could not obtain the qualification certificate for a first-level athlete. Starting from national first-level athletes, including higher-level national-level athletes and international-level athletes, they are not assessed through tests, but need to perform well in national-level competitions.

For example, the standard line for first-level athletes in the 100-meter dash is 10.93 seconds measured by electronic timing. Athletes must run over 10.93 seconds in official national competitions before they can be awarded the national first-level athlete. Electronic timers are definitely used in official competitions, so starting from the first-level athletes, the results are determined by electronic timers.

Competitions and exams are completely different. Athletes will be nervous and perform abnormally when participating in competitions. They may not be able to perform even 70% to 80% of their strength. Even if they are strong enough, sometimes they have to rely on luck and chance to become a first-class athlete. This is why high-level athletes have the opportunity to go to college without taking exams.

Although Chen Haiyang's performance can be seen as 0.05 seconds higher than the standard line for first-level athletes, in fact he is still far behind the national first-level athletes. He still needs more training and needs to accumulate more actual combat experience. Experience, and perhaps many setbacks, are needed before one has a chance to become a true national first-class athlete.

A hand-timed score of 10.64 seconds was enough to prove Chen Haiyang’s talent in the 100-meter dash, and it was enough to impress coach Chen Yuejin. Although Chen Haiyang's 10.64 seconds was only 0.11 seconds faster than Xu Qingliang's 10.75 seconds, when athletes reach this level, the difference of 0.11 seconds can already be regarded as two levels of athletes. In comparison, Wang Lei's 10 seconds of 84 is not worth mentioning.

Chen Yuejin originally came to Wang Lei and planned to give him a place for independent enrollment, but the sudden appearance of Chen Yuejin obviously terminated Chen Yuejin's plan. One was 64 in 10 seconds, and the other was 84 in 10 seconds. As long as he could count, Everyone knows how to choose. He turned around and left without saying a word, ignoring Zhao Shouren at all.

"Why is Coach Chen gone?" Zhao Shouren looked embarrassed. His outstretched right hand was still hanging in the air, but Chen Yuejin had already walked away.

At this moment, everyone's exclamations reached Zhao Shouren's ears. Only then did he know that one candidate actually ran 64 in 10 seconds!

"Who, who is it! Who ran 10 seconds 64? Where did he come from!" Zhao Shouren looked very panicked. He also knew that there was no comparison between 10 seconds 64 and 10 seconds 84, so he could only place his hope on that one. The candidate who ran 10.64 seconds was not a recent graduate of high school, so that he could get back his independent enrollment quota.

"I think I've seen this candidate before. He signed up for our 100-meter sprint training class before, but he didn't come on the day of reporting!" Coach Zhou's voice sounded just right, and the trace of luck in Zhao Shouren's heart disappeared without a trace in an instant. trace.

"Coach, I've crossed the line too!" Chen Haiyang ran to Dai Li with excitement on his face.

However, Dai Li's eyes stayed behind Chen Haiyang, and he saw coach Chen Yuejin walking over in a hurry.

"It's coach Chen Yuejin of the Provincial Sports School. He's here again. Just now Xu Qingliang ran 10 seconds 75 and was able to get a place for independent enrollment. Now that Chen Haiyang has run 10 seconds 64, he will definitely give Chen Haiyang a place. The provincial sports university has its own enrollment quota!”

Thinking of this, Dai Li put a smile on his face, greeted him personally, and said, "Hello, Coach Chen. I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon."

"Is it you? Who are you? What's your last name..." Chen Yuejin dragged out a long sound. Although the two had just met not long ago, Chen Yuejin didn't remember Dai Li's name at all.

"Li Dai. My name is Li Dai." Li Dai was not dissatisfied at all, but immediately reported his name.

"Yes, I remembered it, Dai Li!" Chen Yuejin said, looking at Chen Haiyang next to him, and then asked: "This 10 Seconds 64 is also your student?"

"Yes, he is also my student. His name is Chen Haiyang, and he is also a recent graduate of the third year of high school." Li Dai pushed Chen Haiyang to the front and continued: "Chen Haiyang is very talented in the 100-meter dash event, and he usually The training is also very hard. Among my students, Chen Haiyang’s results are the best..."

Li Dai naturally praised Chen Haiyang vigorously, and even recommended him highly in his words, almost asking for the independent enrollment quota.

At this time, Chen Yuejin was not in a hurry to give out the quota for independent enrollment. Instead, he became somewhat interested in Li Dai.

Among all the candidates today, the two with the best scores are both students of Li Dai. If there is only one Xu Qingliang, it can be regarded as Li Dai's blind cat encountering a dead mouse, but if Chen Haiyang is added to it, it cannot be simply explained by the word "coincidence".

The intuition developed through many years of work experience told Chen Yuejin that the young man in front of him might be extraordinary.

Chen Yuejin looked behind Dai Li and asked, "Dai Li, how many students did you bring to take the test this time?"

"8. I have told you before that I worked alone and held a training class. I personally trained these 8 students and have been following me for two months." Li Dai said.

Chen Yuejin nodded and then asked: "How many second-level athletes have reached the standard?"

"Seven." Dai Li answered directly without thinking.

"Seven of the eight students were able to pass the second-level athlete test. This high standard rate is too exaggerated. How can there be such a high-level coach in a small place like Yuzhou City? Maybe I was too young before. Look at this young man, maybe this young man is really good at training." Chen Yuejin thought to himself.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from a distance: "Coach, I passed too!"

This is the last student of Li Dai to take the test. He takes the test in the fourteenth group.

A relieved smile appeared on Dai Li's face, and he said to Chen Yuejin: "Coach Chen, now all eight of my students have reached the standard."
