Generally speaking, there are two types of sprinters. One type is short, with a height of no more than 1.8 meters, with stronger leg muscles and a higher pace frequency.
There is also a category of tall athletes with slender limbs. The pace of these athletes is relatively slower, but their stride span is much wider than that of shorter athletes.
Chen Zhao obviously does not belong to these two categories. Relatively speaking, Chen Zhao is taller, just over 1.8 meters tall, and his limbs are shorter than those of athletes, and he does not have long legs. Even if Chen Zhao trains his body to be as strong as an athlete, I can't run track and field either, especially sprinting.
Of course, Chen Zhao never wanted to be an athlete.
Chen Zhao likes his current life, which is fulfilling but has enough leisure time.
Rather than being like an athlete, his nerves are tense and he has to tire himself out every day.
Moreover, Chen Zhao has also passed the age of being an athlete.
Chen Zhao is interested in the bonus, nothing more.
"What if it's an international event? For example, the Star Invitational Tournament you mentioned."
"The prize money of the Star Invitational Tournament is actually not very high, with the highest being only 200,000 US dollars. The prize money of some invitational tournaments is even lower than that of domestic first-level events. The main purpose of the Star Invitational Tournament is to gain points from the IAAF and expand its reputation, so that it can have the opportunity to win domestic awards." Sponsorship from some sponsors, or increase activity income.”
"Then what's the Diamond League and the Gold League?"
"If I could be in the Diamond League... I wouldn't have been able to participate even in my heyday. I didn't have enough points, I wasn't ranked well enough in the country, I couldn't get a spot, or I had to buy a wild card spot, but I couldn't afford it. Finally, I was in the Golden League. , that is the ultimate stage for every track and field athlete, even more than the Olympics."
"How much income can you make if you win the Golden League?"
"Don't be ridiculous. I will never be in the Golden League in my life, let alone win the championship. My current best 100-meter time is only 9.95 seconds. In the domestic first and second leagues, I am not 100% sure of winning, let alone winning. In the Golden League, unless you break all the thighs of the contestants, and with my results, even if I participate in the Golden League, I may not even be able to advance."
"I'm asking about income."
"It's not certain. The Golden League is not one game, but multiple games. Any win in a game will bring in at least hundreds of thousands of dollars in income. This is just the bonus income, plus the income from sponsors, advertisers, and even It can reach $2 million.”
"If I heal your leg and help your competitive level return to its peak level, or even beyond it, and also sponsor you to participate in various events, how about you share some of the prize money with me?"
"What do you mean?"
"Literally, I want to invest in you." Chen Zhao said.
"You are a doctor, I believe you can cure my leg, but you said you want to invest in me, do you know what you are talking about? Even after I recover, I still need to rent a training hall, hire a coach, fitness, nutrition Meals cost at least 20,000 US dollars per month, and this is not something you can achieve in a month or two, let alone domestic league bonuses. Your money is likely to be wasted."
"Although it is an investment, I also believe that you can achieve good results. I am betting on your future. How about, for your next two years, I will bear all the expenses for the next two years, and all your expenses for the next two years will be borne by me." I want 40% of the income.”
"Okay, even if what you said is true, 40% is too high. It's impossible. You are even just my health consultant. I will give you 10% at most. No more is impossible. "
"10%? I pay you 20,000 U.S. dollars every month, and can you guarantee that your monthly income will exceed 200,000 U.S. dollars? Let me do the math. In two years, I need to invest 40,000 U.S. dollars. Eighty thousand US dollars, that is to say, you have to earn 4.8 million US dollars in at least two years, at least I will not lose money, do you think I am a fool?"
"40% is too high. Even if I find a club, they will only charge me 20% at most, or even a lower commission, and it is only my bonus share, not my entire income, but you want me 40% of all revenue.”
"Well, if you refuse, then forget what I just said and treat it as if I didn't say anything."
"25%, I will give you 25% of all income."
"30%, if it's less than this share ratio, forget it."
"The premise is that you can make my results even better. If you can make my results reach the quota for the Golden League, then I will accept this share ratio."
"Of course, I have ways to make you better."
"You mean taking medicine?" Ford's expression changed.
"Of course... no, don't worry, I'm just making you stronger."
"It's a deal, when will we sign the contract?"
"No contract required."
"Aren't you afraid that I'll default on my debt?"
"I don't like to sign contracts with any terms, but I believe that we are all contractual people... right?"
"How long will it take for me to stand on the track again?"
"I need to give you a more thorough examination, then a treatment plan, and finally a recovery plan."
…
"Mr. Bird, please don't take it as a joke. In fact, I am telling you this in a very serious manner. It is not a prank, a joke, or a story." David looked at Bird seriously.
"Wait, you mean, my daughter will be attacked by evil spirits?" Bird's smile gradually faded.
"Yes, and not one evil spirit, maybe ten, maybe more evil spirits." David said.
"And the hospital is definitely not our main battlefield." Sienna stood next to David and said: "Maybe there are many souls dormant in the hospital, and they will be affected by your daughter's soul and turn into evil spirits."
"Why?" Bird was still a little doubtful: "Did Aisha do something wrong?"
"No, she did nothing wrong. It's just because she was born extraordinary. She will face the test of life and death. She has already passed the test of death, and now she will face the test of life. If she passes If she passes this test, she will gain extraordinary power; if she fails to withstand this test, she will never be able to wake up."
"Isn't this a joke?"
"Yes."
"I still prefer to believe Chen, that Oriental man, Mr. Police, can you contact him? I want to ask him."
Compared to Sienna, Bird was more willing to believe in the person who helped him find his wife and daughter.
"Mr. Bird, I just tried to call him, but his phone was turned off."
"I need to think about it."
Sienna looked at the clock hanging on the wall: "There is not much time left. It is almost 22 o'clock. After 22 o'clock, evil spirits may appear and last until one o'clock in the morning."
"Miss Sienna, are you sure you will show up tonight?"
"It will definitely happen tonight, and it will probably be an unprecedented danger." Sienna said seriously.
