Champion’s Heart

v4 Chapter 4: gold medal

The media said that this Olympic team is "the strongest Olympic team in history" is not blindly touted. Because this national Olympic team is actually very strong in terms of player strength.

Looking at the players, they have five outstanding foreign players, which is the key to why they are "the strongest in history."

Zhou Yi, who plays for Dortmund and is the absolute core of the team.

He performed well in Atletico Madrid and stabilized Sun Pan, the main goalkeeper of Atletico Madrid.

Schalke 04 midfielder Yang Muge.

Si Nu's back defender Guo Nu.

Valladolid's main striker, the Western League silver boots shooter, helped Valladolid finally upgrade the hero He Ying.

These five people are the absolute main force in their respective clubs, which is very rare among the foreign players before. The previous Chinese players stayed abroad and were able to play rotation players in their clubs, even if it was the highest achievement, and it was good to be able to play the bench. But these five people are all the main force, five of them accounted for half of the national Olympic team.

In addition, the national Olympic team also includes excellent young players such as Wang Dale, Wu Lei, Zhang Linpeng in China, they are also the main players in their respective clubs, and have been trained in the professional league early.

Before this Olympic team, the strongest Olympic team in history was the team led by Xu Genbao in 1992. Although the team eventually suffered a black three-minute missed Barcelona Olympics, the team finally emerged. Many stars, Hao Dong and Fan Zhiyi were well-deserved Asian bests in their respective positions. In addition to the two of them, Li Bin, Peng Weiguo, Xu Hong, Jiang Jing, and Hu Zhijun were also the stars of the first stage of the League.

But even the team at that time, no one can play the main force in the five major leagues in Europe, or even become the core.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that this Olympic team is the strongest Olympic team in history. It really deserves its name.

The Chinese Olympic team took the time to go to the Great Hall of the People on July 10. This was the first time Zhou Yi entered the Great Hall of the People in order to attend the inaugural meeting of the Chinese Olympic sports delegation.

Except for 1988 and 2008, the previous Olympic delegation establishment ceremony has nothing to do with the Chinese men’s football team. Compared with those who have participated in many Olympics, Zhou Yi is a complete newcomer.

At the meeting, they saw a lot of sports stars that could only be seen on the TV. Although they are themselves stars, many players are still a star chaser in front of the Olympic stars. Zhou Yi got the signature and photo of Lin Dan, the badminton world champion, and then ran back to show off to his teammates.

Everyone else has gained something, so Sun Pandong looked away, frowning and doing nothing.

"What is it?" Zhou Yi asked.

"I'm looking for Fukuhara Love"

"Fuyuan love?" Zhou Yi is very strange.

"Yeah, why didn't she come?"

"Come on ass! People are Japanese!"

Sun Pan was stunned to hear Zhou Yi's words, and it took a long time to react and patted his head: "Fuck! I always think she is a standard Northeastern!"

"So you like the kind of girl Fuyuan loves" Zhou Yi looked at Sun Pan with a thoughtful look.

"No no no!" Sun Pan quickly waved his hand. "I like girls of all types!"

"" Facing such a shameless Sun Pan, Zhou Yi was speechless.

Yang Muge squeezed through the crowd and returned to them.

"How is the harvest?" Zhou Yi asked.

Yang Muge picked up a photo and said, "I want to get Liu Guizhi's photo."

Zhou Yi took the picture and looked at it: "Liu Guoliang?"

Yang Muge nodded: "It's a pity that I actually want Zhang Yining's signature, but she has retired."

Many players of the Olympic team are looking for other sports stars to sign and take a photo. Compared with the Olympic team, the Olympic team is relatively deserted. No one came to them for any signature or photo. After all, the image of Chinese football is really far from those of Olympic stars.

But there are exceptions.

While Zhou Yi was chatting with his friends, a tall figure suddenly appeared in the National Olympic Team. He was so striking that everyone stopped talking and turned his attention to winning the championship at the Shanghai Swimming World Championship last year Young teenager Sun Yang who broke the world record.

"Hi." Sun Yang greeted everyone and raised his hand, then went straight to Zhou Yi. "Zhou Yi, let's take a picture together?"

Zhou Yi pointed at himself somewhat unexpectedly: "Me? And Me?"

"Yes." Sun Yang grinned broadly. "I am your fan!"

After talking, he took out his phone.

"I'll help you." Yang Muge said voluntarily. Sun Yang handed him the mobile phone.

Then he leaned down slightly and wrapped Zhou Yi's shoulders. The two stood together and finished a group photo.

After the photo session, Sun Yang took the phone and gave thumbs up to Zhou Yi: "I watched your match in Dortmund, it was really super! I used to think that only Harvey and Pirlo could play that way. I didn’t expect that we also have China! Come on at the Olympics, as long as you have time, I will watch you race!"

After that, he waved to other Olympic players and said goodbye.

"Oh! Awesome!" Sun Yang exclaimed as soon as he left. When Sun Yang broke the world record at the World Swimming Championships last year, it was a beautiful place, and even athletes in other events never heard of his name. He is known as the genius boy in the world of swimming.

Didn't expect him to be a fan of Zhou Yi?

Everyone's awe-inspiring is not over yet, and someone came over to take a photo with Zhou Yi. This time it was Ma Long, a player of the Chinese men's table tennis team.

Next, someone came to Zhou Yi for a group photo and autograph.

The teammates next to me were dizzying. At this time, many of them suddenly realized that in fact, they also have the kind of big stars in the Olympic team that have exceeded the influence of this sport!

This makes the Olympic team players a little proud.

Zhou Yi is indeed the number one star of the National Olympics team. Although there are five overseas players, the most dazzling is clearly Zhou Yi. Even in the media interview after the founding conference, Zhou Yidu accepted the interview of the national TV station as the representative of the national Olympic team.

When asked how he felt about participating in the Olympic Games for the first time, he said: "I'm very excited and excited. I used to watch the Olympic Games in front of the television.

This answer is actually quite decent.

However, his answer to the next question surprised some of the reporters and teammates present.

When the reporter asked Zhou Yi what goals or prospects he had for the first time to participate in the Olympic Games, Zhou Yi smiled and said, "Fight against excellent teams and players from all over the world and then win the championship."

After Zhou Yi finished speaking, the reporter who interviewed him froze, and the teammates behind him also froze.

Except for the five little dragons, they were all stunned.

If they heard correctly, Zhou Yi just said "champion"?

"I'm sorry, I can repeat it again." The reporter was also a little ignorant, she confirmed to Zhou Yi.

"Well, champion, I hope we can win the championship at the Olympics. This is my personal vision of the Olympics." Zhou Yi repeated this time, this time he said more clearly. Everyone heard him say "I hope we can win the championship in the Olympics."

Is Zhou Yi crazy?

When the reporter was shocked, she suddenly realized that it might be a big news, so she quickly asked: "Why did you put forward such a high target?" She was frightened.

Zhou Yi continued to smile and answer the reporter's question: "I think this is a goal in line with the spirit of the Olympic Games? Higher, faster and stronger. If the gold medal is the highest goal, then it should work towards the highest goal. Once every four years Olympic Games, for us who play football, we have the opportunity to participate in this lifetime, of course, we must strive to be the best."

"So the goal of the gold medal is self-motivation?" the reporter asked.

Zhou Yi nodded.

When she saw Zhou Yi nod, she was relieved to explain that it was normal. It was not that Zhou Yi really wanted to win the championship, but that the championship was regarded as a motivation for struggle. This is much more acceptable.

This concludes the interview with Zhou Yi. Zhou Yi and his teammates will leave the Great Hall of the People and return to Xiangshan's training base to continue training.

His teammates surrounded Zhou Yi on the way back: "Zhou Yi, the goal of that champion is that you tease reporters?"

This situation is actually quite common. In the face of the media, everyone will involuntarily or painstakingly say some beautiful words.

"No." Zhou Yi did not expect to shake his head.

"Eh?!" Everyone was surprised. Is Zhou Yi serious? "Are you serious?!"

"Otherwise what do you think?" Sun Pan next to him couldn't help asking.

Everyone looked at each other for a while, but they were a bit unacceptable.

Olympic gold medal!

Although everyone likes it, everyone knows how far it is from them. Being able to win a gold medal at the Olympic Games has never been easy. Even if it is China's traditional superior table tennis, it is often tense to see everyone.

Not to mention that football is a traditional weak project in China

"Don't look at me with that kind of expression. It's not impossible to get a gold medal. As long as we maintain a good state and play well, I think there is still a chance." Zhou Yi said to everyone. "We are not the first Chinese team to participate in the Olympics, but we can be the first Chinese team to win the gold medal. Isn't this cool?"

"It's cool, it's easy, and it's too difficult?"

"Isn't it boring if it's not too difficult? I think so. First of all, we have to believe in ourselves, and secondly, we can really do things that others think we can't do~lightnovelpub.net~ Everyone thinks that is an impossible thing, how can we really achieve him? If our goal is to qualify for the group, do you think it will be OK after the group is released?"

Someone said, "How is it possible to stop here? Who doesn't want to go further?"

"Yes!" Zhou Yi slapped. "Will it be better if I want to go further?"

Now everyone looked at each other and roughly understood the meaning of Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi continued: "The knockout round is the quarter-finals, and the quarter-finals further. I'll rely on it further. Isn't this the final? Since they are all in the final, why not fight for a championship?"

The queried car was silent.

Everyone seemed to be in deep thought.

Zhou Yi did not continue to explain, he sat down, Sun Pan next to him came together and asked him: "Aren't the Olympic spirit focused on participation?"

Zhou Yi glanced at him: "That's just an excuse the loser used for self-consolation." To be continued. ..
