Chapter 5078: Hard Work Comes First
The torch relay in Shanghai is equally exciting. For all Chinese people, the Olympic torch relay is always the most exciting moment. For Shanghai, it is also a memorable thing to see so many stars and celebrities passing the torch on the road. Especially, there is Lin Feng today.
The King of Shanghai, the God of Wind, the Demon King, each of these titles is so exciting. And being able to see Lin Feng in person is undoubtedly the most exciting thing.
As for Lin Feng, as the last baton, the Shanghai government, after careful consideration and research, placed the most important baton route at the "Century Light". This is now the real center of Shanghai. The surrounding area has been rebuilt from the ground up and has become Shanghai's city central park and the lungs of Shanghai. It is undoubtedly the most appropriate to let it be the last baton.
Along the way, as the torch was passed, all the people cheered with their arms raised and shouted "Go China". This is the same in any place in the country. As long as they see the torch, the enthusiasm of the people is ignited, and the patriotic complex in the hearts of the people erupts like a volcano.
There are too many stars in Shanghai along the way. The most famous one is Yao Ming, and he is also the most recognizable star and celebrity. His tall figure can be recognized from a distance. Basically, most stars in Shanghai will not be recognized when they go out. But Yao Ming will definitely be recognized. No matter how Yao Ming disguises himself, it is useless. His natural height is destined to be impossible to disguise.
In addition to Yao Ming, Sun Wen, Zhou Xun and others are also stars that make the onlookers extremely excited. Of course. Liu Xiang is naturally indispensable among them. And the Shanghai Municipal Government also arranged Lin Feng in the second to last leg because of his relationship with Liu Xiang.
Just like Chu City. When Lin Feng appeared on the Olympic torch relay route, all the people around screamed again. The atmosphere was directly warm and extraordinary.
"Feng Shen, you are still the most popular one. The unique one!" Liu Xiang smiled and lit the torch in Lin Feng's hand.
"Haha, this year is the Olympics, you have to work hard and surprise everyone again!" Lin Feng laughed and turned and ran away. However, there was a hint of darkness between his eyebrows. But it was soon replaced by a brilliant smile.
"Go China!"
"Go Fengshen!"
The crowd cheered again.
2000 meters is not a difficult task for Lin Feng. In particular, the main structure of Shanghai City Central Park has been basically completed, including the river, tree-lined paths, tree holes, bamboo maze, etc. All that remains is the final planting of trees on both sides. And the final completion of the underground subway.
Once all the projects are completed, Lin Feng believes. Shanghai City Central Park will surely become the best city central park in the world, and will also provide a natural oxygen bar for the center of Shanghai. And here, it will surely become a place for lovers in Shanghai to meet, the elderly to do morning exercises, the middle-aged to relax, and the children to play.
Finally, with everyone cheering, Lin Feng ran the last leg. After the run, Lin Feng declined the dinner invitation from the Shanghai Municipal Government, but instead asked someone to find Liu Xiang.
Lin Feng suddenly remembered something, that is, Liu Xiang who withdrew from the Olympics. In the 2008 Olympics, the whole nation was full of expectations for Liu Xiang. They had high expectations for this star athlete in the Chinese track and field arena, and even the only hope for track and field. As a result, he withdrew from the competition before the final. It can be said that at that time, everyone in the country scolded Liu Xiang, and many people hated him. However, Lin Feng was not among these people.
Therefore, in 2008, after Huang Jianxiang went to Phoenix TV, he once talked about this topic in a program "Everyday Sports Meeting" hosted by him. He said that the people of the whole country are so enthusiastic about Liu Xiang now. What if Liu Xiang gets injured during the Olympics? He said that the Chinese people should not be too responsible and should not make things difficult for Liu Xiang.
At that time, Lin Feng thought about this matter. Who would have thought that Huang Jianxiang's words would come true in the end, and Liu Xiang really withdrew from the Olympics. This surprised Lin Feng at the time, but he quickly accepted it calmly. That's why when Lin Feng met Liu Xiang before, he provided him with the best sports team in the world. He just hoped that he would not get injured.
In the past few years, Liu Xiang has achieved great results. Just like before rebirth, he became the Grand Slam record holder of world record, Olympic record, and World Championship record. In this case, is Liu Xiang injured? Lin Feng wanted to know.
Soon, Liu Xiang came. With a smile on his face, Liu Xiang regarded Lin Feng as an important person as his mentor Sun Haiping. If it weren't for Lin Feng, he didn't think he would have everything he has now. Although Lin Feng never gave him any guarantee in training, in terms of nutrition, fatigue recovery, and injury treatment, Lin Feng gave him the best treatment in the world that his mentor Sun Haiping could not give.
So, when Lin Feng called him, he came over immediately.
"Feng Shen, what's the matter?" Liu Xiang asked.
"Well, Liu Xiang, I want to know, are you injured now? The Olympics are coming soon, and the people of the country have high expectations of you. It can be said that now that there are so many people in the Chinese Olympic team, the most anticipated gold medal in the country is your 110-meter hurdles gold medal. Is there any problem?" Lin Feng asked.
Liu Xiang laughed.
"Wind God, don't worry. Although this is a lot of pressure, I firmly believe that as long as I run out of my own state, I will win the championship. No one, whether it's Robles or Merritt, can't be me." Opponent." Liu Xiang was as confident as ever.
"Is your ankle injured?" Lin Feng asked.
"Don't worry, you're very healthy!" Liu Xiang moved his legs and jumped a few times to show his health.
Lin Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that the arrangement he made after his rebirth this time should eliminate the possibility of injury in the Olympics. Otherwise, we will really get injured again and withdraw from the Olympic Games. To be honest, although the public's resentment is a bit unreasonable, after all, the Olympic Games will be withdrawn due to injury, and four years of waiting will be ruined. The most injured person is not us spectators, but the athletes themselves. Especially, for a niche event like the 110-meter hurdles. It can be said. The Olympics is the biggest stage. If you miss it, it's gone. And after retiring from the Olympics with an injury, this feeling will undoubtedly be very aggrieved and depressing.
But in the eyes of the Chinese people, they felt that they had been deceived by Liu Xiang. So extremely annoyed. And this is always a bad thing about Chinese people. This is like a warm-up match between France and China on the eve of the 2006 World Cup. As a result, Cisse's right foot was tackled by Zheng Zhi, and his path to the World Cup was completely cut off. Not only that, Liverpool, where he was originally from, also loaned him out while he was recovering from injury. Subsequently, Cisse's career path became increasingly bleak. Now he has returned from the Premier League to French Ligue 1 Marseille, and has come back again. It is said that he will soon be loaned to Sunderland in the Premier League again.
It can be said that his career was almost ruined by this kick. And the Chinese people’s reports on it. That is to say, Zheng Zhi injured him with a shovel in the warm-up match, and then there was no report. When Chinese people discuss this matter. Most of them are in a teasing tone. Lin Feng is not talking about the mentality of Chinese people, but he feels that if it were a Chinese player who was about to compete in the World Cup and was injured by a foreigner, he would probably be scolded for the rest of his life.
This Chinese mentality is the same when it comes to Liu Xiang. If Liu Xiang is unfortunately injured during the Olympics, he is destined to be criticized by thousands of people and even be infamy for eternity. Of course, all the news came out that year, saying that Liu Xiang was doing it for the sponsorship contract and money, and did not dare to announce that he was injured. In fact, in terms of commercial contracts signed by athletes, regarding endorsement contracts, there is not much difference between injuries and non-injury. Usually, mature businesses will seek insurance from insurance companies to ensure that the contract will not suffer losses due to athlete injuries. Even if there is no insurance, as long as the injury is not caused by the athlete himself, the contract will not be terminated.
As for Liu Xiang's injuries, they must have been resolved before the Olympics. It is certain that he will not be able to run. But why he didn't say it, I'm afraid it wasn't his intention, but the system. That’s what the people above mean. Doesn’t China always have a spirit called sacrificing for the motherland?
The Olympic Games are the expectations of the people across the country, so Liu Xiang naturally has to fight hard for the 1.3 billion people in the country. Isn't it just that your ankle is a little injured? Grit your teeth, fight hard, and persevere, maybe you can win the championship? That way, all of them will benefit. You yourself are the same, and after the Olympics, it was revealed that you had been injured, but you persisted in running and won the championship. What a touching scene it was. At that time, we can write a special book and list him as a national role model and a model of sportsmanship.
Lin Feng now wants to know whether Liu Xiang is really injured. It would be great if it didn't hurt.
"Feng Shen, in fact, in addition to the best medical team and nutrition team in the world you have provided me, what I also want to thank you for is that you have allowed me to avoid participating in many unnecessary activities. Many, many, as long as I don't agree , I won’t force me to go. At this point, I know that if you don’t come forward, I’m afraid there will be many occasions where I have to attend, and this will be extremely detrimental to my training and recovery from fatigue.” Liu Xiang expressed his thanks again! .
"Haha, it's okay, as long as you are okay. Remember, although this Olympics is held in our motherland and is highly anticipated, if you can win the championship, you must win. If not, then just try your best. Although China has always I like to judge heroes based on success or failure, but there will definitely be winners and losers in the game. No one can be a victorious general. If you work hard and defeat yourself, you will be the champion!" Lin Feng encouraged.
After Liu Xiang left with gratitude, Lin Feng thought about the grand occasion of the Olympic Games. When it came to the Olympic Games, Lin Feng remembered that in the end, China won 51 gold medals, 21 silver medals, and 28 bronze medals, a staggering total of 100 medals, far exceeding any previous Games. As for the United States, it has won 36 golds, 38 silvers, and 36 bronzes, with a total of 110 medals. In terms of medals, it still ranks first. In terms of the gold medal list that China has always respected, it ranks second.
But obviously, although foreign countries still pay attention to gold medals, when it comes to a country's sports strength, they are more concerned about the number of medals. After all, sometimes, the difference between a gold medal and a silver medal is only a few tenths of a second. This gap, sometimes, is just a moment of poor performance, leading to this result. But if you win a gold medal, you are a hero, but if you win a silver medal, wouldn’t you?
This is obviously unreasonable. Therefore, although the West also pays attention to gold medals, they also provide the same encouragement and support to silver and bronze medalists, or even players who have not won a medal. In the past few years, Lin Feng has been traveling in the West for a long time and received a lot of Western education. Therefore, Lin Feng has no intention of helping China get first place in gold medals and medals in this Beijing Olympics.
This is just a sports event, where sports lovers from all over the world gather together to have some exchanges. As for the competition, this exchange is meaningless without competition. Just like playing mahjong, if you don't make money, it will be boring. Lin Feng never rejects or opposes competition. But Lin Feng thinks it is unnecessary to compete for the first place, the first medal, and the first gold medal.
Lin Feng thinks that this spirit must be promoted and encouraged to compete for gold medals. Because people always have to constantly defeat themselves and their opponents to find their own value. But Lin Feng thinks that the theory of gold medal supremacy, or the theory of medal supremacy, is unnecessary. If we win, we congratulate them, and if we lose, we knock them down and kick them ten thousand times?
So, Lin Feng did not make a move.
"Boss, when are we leaving for Dubai?" Melissa asked.
"Well, let's go, let's go now. Time is a bit tight, let's go now!" Lin Feng ordered.
Under Melissa's arrangement, Lin Feng flew to the airport by helicopter and took his own private plane directly to Dubai.
This is not the first time that Lin Feng has come to Dubai. Lin Feng is already very familiar with this city. Moreover, Lin Feng is now completely visa-free when he goes to Dubai. Although Hamdan did not give Lin Feng any special treatment on his passport to avoid him from getting into the "nationality gate" and other boring things, and to avoid people saying that Lin Feng has taken the Dubai green card or something, Lin Feng still needs to get a visa to go to Dubai.
However, Hamdan specially hung Lin Feng's head portrait at all borders, so that they would let him go as soon as they saw him. Including Lin Feng's entourage, as long as they come, they will be let go, not only let them go, but they will never be checked. Lin Feng, free of inspection. This is another kind of preferential treatment Hamdan gave to Lin Feng.
Of course, every time Lin Feng comes, the person responsible for picking him up at the airport is definitely Sheikh Hamdan.
"Haha, Lin, you are finally here. You don't know that if you don't come again, those sheikhs will occupy my palace and won't leave!" Hamdan saw Lin Feng and gave him a big hug.
"But there have been some troubles recently." Hamdan whispered in Lin Feng's ear.
