Chapter 408

Quanzhou, a prefecture level city under the jurisdiction of Fujian Province, is called "Lei" for short, and is also called Licheng and Erythrina city - um - this name!

Well, Erythrina is a tree name, native to India and Malaysia. During the Tang and Song Dynasties, this tree was introduced in many places in Fujian Province, most of which is Quanzhou. This tree is tall and luxuriant, with red flowers like fire. During the Five Dynasties, Quanzhou expanded the city, and this tree was planted all over the city and alleys, so it got this elegant name.

In song and Yuan Dynasties, Quanzhou was the largest port in China and one of the two largest foreign trade ports in the world at that time. A large number of merchants gathered here, most of them Arab merchants. They directly transliterated Erythrina as the nickname. At that time, this nickname was more widely used than the original name.

In addition, under the gun of cowhide King Marco Polo, no, the "travel notes" written in his pen is also called Quanzhou by Erythrina.

After the Yuan Dynasty, the number of Erythrina trees in Erythrina city gradually decreased, and even fewer in modern times. There must still be some, but it is difficult for Meng fan to see the red Erythrina flowers at the end of April. After all, it is past the flowering period, and even the number of Erythrina trees is rare. Instead, he passed a Erythrina road.

The Asian leg of the intercontinental weightlifting qualification of the Kyoto Olympic Games is held at the Huaxia Quanzhou sports center. The main venue is the weightlifting sports stadium. Quanzhou often holds weightlifting competitions, and it goes without saying that it has the ability to host events.

This time, few Chinese athletes came to participate in the weightlifting qualification competition. In fact, it can't be said to be very few. Strictly speaking, Meng fan is alone, because before this, the qualification competitions of other levels of weightlifting men and women have been won, but Meng fan's level has not been won.

Although the Chinese team is not good under the weight lifting rule, it is only relatively speaking, there is no problem in winning the qualification.

It is only 109 kilograms or more. If Meng fan gets it, all levels of men and women will be full. If it weren't for Meng fan, who is above 109 kg, some people in Huaxia would fight for the top 16. No matter how bad it is, they can also win places in the intercontinental qualifier.

Weightlifting is indeed a traditional event in China, but the big level is relatively weak, and it is difficult to win medals, but there is still no problem with qualification.

Meng fan was the only athlete who came to Quanzhou this time. In addition to the team sent by Ju Churou, including the team leader and technical consultants, Dean Zhan naturally also accompanied the team with Meng fan's coach.

"As long as the first six can get tickets."

Dean Zhan was very relaxed. At least it seemed to be easier than Meng fan. After weighing, he waited for the game to begin. Looking at Meng fan's warm-up, he said, "as you said, the total score is not high. As long as you lock the top six, you can play freely."

Meng Fan said with a smile, "didn't you say you wanted to keep the success rate under pressure?"? As you said, the first one is lower, and it's OK to be the last one. “

When Dean Zhan heard this, he knew that Meng fan had listened to his own opinions. He couldn't help laughing and said, "the intercontinental qualification competition is still too easy for you, and there is no pressure on you. It's impossible to treat it as a positive match according to your appearance. Just ensure your admission ticket. There's no need to compete. However, one thing to pay attention to is to ensure that you can enter group A of the Olympic finals."

Dean Zhan gave a guaranteed total score to ensure that this total score can be qualified to enter group a when reporting the total score. The total score can be reported higher, but it cannot be reported without basis.

In Olympic weightlifting, if there are a large number of people, they will be divided into two groups according to the reported results. Finally, the overall strength of group B is all worse than that of group A. therefore, even if group B gets the first place, it is basically out of luck with medals, even with the top six. There are few exceptions. Group A is the real finals. The live broadcast and rebroadcast of the event are also the pictures of group A. most of the audience only think of one group in the weightlifting finals.

Finally, Meng fan's snatch score was 208 kg, clean and jerk 251 kg, and the total score was 455 kg, which was a lot worse than his performance in the domestic trials, but it was a new domestic original record in the intercontinental arena, and it was no problem to win the first place in the qualification.

President Zhan's strategic guidance to Meng fan is very simple, first of all, to ensure the admission ticket of group A, and then to lay out the layout for the Olympic finals.

Meng fan broke the world record in the domestic trials and spread it abroad. Dean Zhan certainly knows that there is no need to be angry. Competitive sports are always on the court.

Of course, strategy and tactics are also an aspect of performance on the field.

Meng fan's performance in this qualification match was neither high nor low, breaking the original domestic record, but it was not too high, but Meng fan's performance on the court was very relaxed.

Didn't you say score water?

Then muddy the water!

There are world record breaking achievements hanging, and this achievement is the bottom line, but there is no real strength to show, let you think about it yourself!

In this way, Dean Zhan can take the lead and take the initiative in reporting weight in the finals.

Meng fan naturally doesn't object. Anyway, as long as he gets the champion honor point of the first place in the qualification competition, this competition really can't draw any competition experience for Meng fan. In terms of specifications, it's better to occupy the simulation training competition arranged by the dean for himself.

Meng fan's Olympic sprint is over after winning the weightlifting qualification.

......

Lift and drop the soft center.

When the leader surnamed Xiong learned that Meng fan confirmed that he had obtained the ticket for the weightlifting Olympics, he immediately ran to the office of the leader surnamed Zhou.

"Lao Zhou, I got it!"

"I see."

"Then hurry!"

The leader surnamed Zhou smiled, waved an application form in his hand, and said, "it's all filled out. Let's go!"

"Go, go, go!"

They were very happy and full of excitement. They took this application form with Meng fan's name and went to the sports department of the Sports Federation.

According to the regulations, all sports centers and associations under the Sports Federation have received this application form, but few centers or associations will submit it.

This application form is nothing else. It is the flag bearer application form of the Chinese Olympic delegation.

Every center and association is qualified to recommend the Olympic flag bearer, but generally speaking, the flag bearer of the opening ceremony of the Chinese Olympic Games has always been played by national men's basketball players. Since taking part in the Olympic Games for the first time in 84, basketball players have served as the flag bearer, and two people have served as the flag bearer for two consecutive terms. For example, Dayao was the flag bearer in 2004 and 2008, and the Arab League was the flag bearer in 12 years. It was not until 2016 that the Olympic flag bearer who was not a men's basketball team, that is, Lei Sheng, a fencer, appeared for the first time.

There are opening ceremonies and naturally there are flag bearers for the closing ceremonies. In the past, the same person served as the flag bearer at the opening and closing ceremonies, but later it was separately served by the athletes who performed well or made a historical breakthrough at the current Olympic Games. For example, Xiangfei man, who won the 110 meter hurdles champion in 2004, was the first flag bearer at the closing ceremony who was not the flag bearer at the opening ceremony, and then in 2008, 12 and 16 years, it was served by female athletes.

The Olympic flag bearer can be said to be the platoon of a national delegation, which is a great honor!

"Another one!"

The Department of sports and physical education received the application form sent by the two directors of the lifting and wrestling center together, and said with a smile, "since 16 years of breaking the 'Monopoly' of the men's basketball team, many people have submitted the application form this time. Who did you submit... Ah, it must be him!"

At first glance, it was indeed Meng fan.

"Many applicants this time? Who are they!"

Hearing this, Zhou Xiong and his colleagues immediately became vigilant.

"Don't ask me, it's confidential. However, I can reveal one thing. Judging from the results, your family is terrible! Except for the men's basketball team, they are all Olympic champions."

"In terms of significance, our family is the first contestant across three major events in the history of the Olympic Games! In terms of strength, our family has no opponent in wrestling and soft events, and broke three world records in weightlifting! In terms of popularity, who is as popular as our family at present? In terms of appearance, not to mention!"

"Yes, yes, you're right! But it's no use telling us. We're only responsible for submitting, and we can't do anything else."“

"It's no use, I say so!"

After thinking for a while, they still felt that they had to find the person above in advance. Although it is still two months away from the list of the Olympic Games, although the Olympic flag bearer was not determined until the end, although In short, this kind of thing should be done sooner rather than later. If Meng fan hadn't won the weightlifting qualification, he would have said it!

As for Meng fan, of course, he doesn't know this matter. If he really wants to know, it must be very late. At least after the announcement of the list, even after Kyoto.

The team returned to Qinhuangdao to participate in the summary meeting of weightlifting. Even if Meng fan was "liberated", the lifting and wrestling center naturally did not arrange any competitions, and the training still followed the best way before - let Meng fan make his own decisions, and the dispatched follow-up group also played a supporting role.

After returning to Hangzhou, there will be a long may day holiday. For athletes preparing for the Olympic Games, there is no holiday without a holiday. Even Meng fan is the same. He is still training almost every day, and the amount of training is never short of weight, and sometimes even more. To tell the truth, the team with Meng fan and Dean Zhan were shocked, worried that Meng fan's training volume was too large and there was an injury.

Normally, Meng fan is so strong that it's no problem not to train. Even the team and Dean Zhan won't force him. But Meng fan is obviously much more serious than they thought. Sometimes they don't understand what Meng fan is doing so hard, and they will persuade Meng fan to practice less.

Meng fan was also asked, but Meng fan's answer always made them feel strange. Meng Fan said that he was a lucky man, so he had to work harder, at least to be worthy of his luck.

The reason why I think it's strange is that these people probably recognized the meaning of "my talent is too enviable. I'd better try to appear mediocre".

Of course, compared with other athletes' closed training, Meng fan still has a lot of freedom, such as going to class, shopping, watching movies, accompanying his girlfriend, and playing cat.

Well, during the May Day holiday, Meng fan couldn't accompany his girlfriend, because Meng Caiwei, who had initially completed the weight loss goal, was "out of the mountain". Wu Tong took advantage of the May Day holiday when she didn't have class to play with neon. It sounds good to go to the outpost first to prepare for the family to watch the competition during the Olympic Games. She estimated that it should be to go shopping. After all, she hasn't been shopping for so long.

In addition, from the wechat sent by Wu Tong, Meng fan also knew that in addition to the two of them, Angelica dahurica and Su qingcen were also there. In addition, Meng Caihe, a female tycoon of the Meng family, happened to be on a business trip in Kyoto. In addition, Meng Caiwei's good friend in neon was ten yuan. Six women in this line were not shopping. It was simply Street bombing.

Su qingcen went out to play during the holiday, but Hu Yijing was not idle. After Meng fan won the weightlifting qualification competition, the relevant invitations reached a peak during this period of time, and then sorted out a batch and screened, leaving only six to Meng fan. However, Meng fan didn't reply for the time being, so let Meng Caiwei help to discuss with Hu Yijing when Meng Caiwei comes back.

Without Wu Tong, Meng fan, who was energetic in the evening, immediately had more copies of "strange people in the mountains and seas".

After the May Day holiday, people came to the wrestling center. They brought men's major athletes who won the qualification of wrestling in the Olympic Games. They followed Meng fan and completed a week of special training for him.

Compared with the previous special training, the specifications of the team members who came this time are obviously the highest, which shows the recognition of Meng fan, the "coach" at the training base.

On May 16, after the special training was completed, Ji Bangrou came to pick up the person, and Meng fan submitted a training application. Meng fan's autonomy in training is very high. The reason why he submitted an application this time is that he needs the help of the lifting and wrestling center.

"Xiao Meng, to be honest, I don't understand what this means. Why do you train like this? Is this really training?" After reading the application, the person who came here with a soft lift threw a confused look on his face and sent out three consecutive attacks of doubt.

Meng fan's answer was also straightforward: "yes, I really have no opponent in the two major items of wrestling and softness, and the only opponent is myself. In terms of strength, skills and technical tactics, I have reached the bottleneck, and it is difficult for me to break through even if I arrange the right opponent, so I came up with this method. Maybe it will enlighten me from the bottom up."

"... I'd better call director Zhou directly for you."

People listen to the clouds, how does it sound like it means to travel across the country in order to seek an epiphany breakthrough? Martial arts cultivation has cultivated peerless magic skills!

Not only was he stunned, but director Zhou was also stunned, but finally agreed to Meng fan's application. After hanging up the phone, he looked depressed and began to call the leaders of the heavy sports department of provincial sports institutes across the country, asking them to prepare for Meng fan's visit and exchange.

The Department of Heavy Athletics in provincial sports institutes is certainly not under the management of the center of lifting and throwing, or even a system. However, the three events of lifting and throwing account for half of the Department of Heavy Athletics, and face will certainly be given.

It's just that the leaders of the Department of Athletics in the sports institutes are also confused. Meng fan, who has no enemies in the international arena, came to visit and communicate with their provincial sports institutes. What the hell is this? What evil fun is this!

Of course, you are definitely welcome. Aside from the "Meng's training method" from the national team, who doesn't want to be wrestled by Meng fan!
