Shanghai Oriental Sports Center, Hungary team rest area.
"Brother, coach Zhang Jing seems to be really angry. You won't really want to leave after Shanghai Station, right?"
Liu Shaolin followed his younger brother's gaze and saw that in the previous two days of the game, head coach Zhang Jing changed his previous attitude. After briefly arranging tactics, he sat on a chair alone and watched the game like an audience.
...can even be called an audience, after all, the audience's emotions will be mobilized by the game.
And what about Zhang Jing? She is more like an outsider. No matter what happens in the Hungarian team's game, she will always look like she has no trouble...
Liu Shaolin turned to Liu Shao'ang and said: "I believe the Hungarian Hockey Federation will not let Coach Zhang leave!"
As Liu Shaolin said, the main reason why Zhang Jing is still sitting in the position of head coach is the contract issue. Before the contract expires, Zhang Jing's unilateral resignation must be approved by the Hungarian Hockey Federation.
Before the Shanghai game officially started, seven people, headed by the chairman of the Hungarian Ice Hockey Federation, had come to Shanghai to communicate about Zhang Jing's resignation. They rejected Zhang Jing's resignation and confronted Zhang in person about Bull's humiliation.
Crystal apologizes.
It's just that Zhang Jing's attitude was very firm. She never agreed with the board that was held high and put it down gently.
In 2012, with the support of the Chinese Hockey Federation and for the sake of friendly relations between China and Hungary, Zhang Jingyuan went to Hungary to become the head coach of the Hungarian national team. It has been eight years since then.
In the past eight years, Zhang Jing has given everything to the Hungarian national team. She wants to prove herself, train champion players and advantageous events for Hungary, and strive for the first Winter Olympic gold medal in Hungarian history!
In the past eight years, Zhang Jing has brought the Hungarian national team from obscurity to a strong short track speed skating team.
In the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics, in the men's 5000-meter relay event, they were infinitely close to the gold medal. However, Li Yuang's sudden emergence made the Hungarian people have to wait another four years for their championship dream!
Not to mention Zhang Jing's lack of patriotism, if given the opportunity to coach the Chinese national team, who would say no?
After all, her departure was also supported by the state, a bit like table tennis's "wolf-raising plan" to help backward countries improve the competitiveness of short track speed skating.
Zhang Jing turned to look at the Chinese team's rest area. As a coach who went abroad to coach, who wouldn't want to return to the motherland after becoming a championship coach like Lang Ping?
In the just-concluded women's 500m final event A, Fan Kexin recovered and won the first 500m gold medal of the season at her home court!
"Dajing! Come on, you can do it!"
Wu Dajing nodded firmly and said: "Yes!"
The friendship between the two is definitely better than that of ordinary teammates. During the time when they were sparring partners for the women's team, when others were not optimistic about it, they were surpassed by Fan Kexin on the court and encouraged by Fan Kexin off the court...
Both of them are athletes who specialize in the 500-meter event. They often compare skills together in private, and they also play billiards together when they have more free time!
Gradually, the two of them gradually changed from young players to old players, and they met for a bj. It became their common goal to win the first Winter Olympics gold medal for the Chinese team in the mixed relay!
Wu Dajing's form this season was not good. Except for winning the gold medal in the second 500-meter final in Salt Lake City, he failed to even get on the podium in several other competitions.
This is simply a humiliation for Wu Dajing!
In the Shanghai competition, as the captain of the Chinese short track speed skating team and the first skater to appear on the men's team on the final day, he must give the men's team a good start!
…
"Okay, the next thing to do is the 500-meter final."
"The first track is Chinese player Wu Dajing, the second track is Kazakhstan player Azhgaliev, the third track is Hungarian player Liu Shaoang, and the fourth track is Liu Shaolin, also from Hungary."
Wu Dajing went on the ice to warm up under the introduction of the on-site DJ. In the 500-meter event, Wu Dajing started together and had no opponent! His only opponent was himself! In this competition, his goal is only to win!
The Hungarian brothers who are warming up also have their sights set on winning the championship! They want to keep their coach with gold medals!
"Peng!" The game begins!
Wu Dajing, who started together, entered the corner first by virtue of his track advantage!
Liu Shao'ang in lane three was well prepared for the start! With his excellent explosive power, he overtook Azhgaliev at the starting stage and followed Wu Dajing into the second corner! Liu Shaolin in lane four was the last one to turn in!
"When did Liu Shao'ang become so strong? He was able to keep up with Brother Da Jing after three starts!"
"No! It's Brother Da Jing..."
In the rest area of the Chinese team, Li Yuang, who was watching the match, suddenly widened his eyes. He originally thought that Wu Dajing, who started together, would win the gold medal with absolute strength, but he did not expect that Wu Dajing was in such poor condition!
This is not Brother Da Jing’s best state!
During summer training, the two competed many times in the 500-meter event, winning and losing each other.
Coupled with multiple studies in the "Dream Training Ground", Li Yuang was extremely familiar with Wu Dajing's skating habits. Just after starting and turning, Li Yuang discovered that Wu Dajing was not in good condition!
Under normal circumstances, Liu Shao'ang from the third lane suppressed Azhgaliev from the second lane. With Wu Dajing's ability, he can definitely establish a direct lead!
But now, Wu Dajing not only failed to get rid of Liu Shao'ang, but was on the verge of being caught up by Liu Shao'ang!
After thinking about it, Li Yuang said to himself: "This game is difficult..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Da Jing slid out of the corner and accelerated. Liu Shao'ang, who had been prepared for it, took two steps and passed directly on the inside track!
Under normal circumstances, it is a routine operation for Wu Dajing to accelerate in a straight line and cut in at the next corner to complete the overtake...
What is surprising is that Liu Shao'ang was in great form in this game. He even added another knife when Wu Dajing was cutting in, and entered the corner before Wu Dajing!
"Come on Wu Da Jing!" "Come on!"
Wu Dajing did not expect that the start of this game would be so difficult. Listening to the cheers in his ears, he knew that this was his home court and he could not just admit defeat like this!
In the straight line area, Wu Da Jing accelerated to catch up with Liu Shao'ang!
About to enter the corner! Liu Shaoang, who was in the first position, did not expect Wu Dajing to adjust so quickly, so he could only add another knife to prevent Wu Dajing from overtaking!
However, Liu Shao'ang entered the corner too fast. Under Wu Dajing's continued pressure, Liu Shao'ang's center of gravity became unstable and he fell forward onto the ice! Liu Shao'ang quickly touched the ice with both hands to help him maintain his balance...
Wu Dajing, who was behind him, reacted quickly and quickly got out of the way, hiding in the outer lane.
Azhgaliev, who came in third place, took the inner path to dodge. Although he dodged in the flash of lightning, his movements were obviously deformed. Under the action of centrifugal force, he also fell out...
Liu Shaolin, who was fourth, seemed to have been prepared. He was not affected in any way. With this accident, he directly surpassed the three of them and rushed to the first position!
