August 31st.
The 22nd World University Games held in Daegu, South Korea ended smoothly.
The Chinese sports delegation won a total of 42 gold medals, 27 silver medals, and 17 bronze medals, ranking first in the gold medal rankings and first in the medal rankings.
It could be said that he had gained a lot.
September 1st.
2 PM.
The Huaxia sports delegation's flight slowly landed at the Capital International Airport.
Yang Zhuo and the other athletes, coaches, and leaders of the delegation were all beaming with joy.
He should be happy to return with a good reputation.
Yang Zhuo wanted to walk at the back and keep a low profile.
However, he was pulled to the front by the leader of the delegation.
The leaders were all around him.
It made him feel embarrassed.
Outside the hall.
A group of people was waiting for the delegation to come out.
They were the leaders of the General Administration of Sports, the Ministry of Education, and many media reporters.
There were long spears and short cannons. It looked like a huge formation.
At this moment, the passersby who had just come out of the arrival hall were a little dumbfounded.
What was he doing?
The person who came to pick her up was also confused.
"Hey, big brother, may I ask what this is for?”
"Look at the banner. It's for our country's delegation in the World University Games.”
"Oh, I see!"
"You didn't see the news, did you? This time, we won 42 gold medals and ranked first! Even that guy won the men's 100m sprint. That guy was really good.”
"Whoa, it's not easy to become the champion of the men's 100m sprint.”
"Isn't that so?"
At this moment.
Yang Zhuo and the others appeared in their line of sight.
The cameraman began to work.
"Kakaka."
They took photos.
When the leaders of the delegation came out first, the deputy director of the General Administration of Sports went up to shake hands with the leader and welcomed the delegation back with honors.
As the representative of the outstanding students, Yang Zhuo was praised by the leaders.
After shaking his hand, the deputy director patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile,"You've worked hard. You've brought glory to China!”
"Thank you, Chief!" Yang Zhuo replied in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.”
“......”
Except for the leaders, Yang Zhuo was very popular.
He was also the focus of the reporters and photographers.
There was also a short media interview session.
"Yang Zhuo, as a long-distance runner who won the 100m sprint championship in China, what do you think?”
"When do you think you can break the 10-second mark?”
"Next year is the Athens Olympics. What are your goals?”
"I heard that you have a girlfriend at Beijing University. Is that true?”
"You're so handsome. Will you enter the entertainment industry in the future?”
One question after another made Yang Zhuo's head hurt.
He could only give a simple answer.
"I'm still young. It's not time for me to fall in love. 10 seconds is a huge barrier for China and even the entire Asia. No one has ever crossed it, and I hope I will be the first.”
"The Athens Olympics is still a bit far for me. What I need to do is to work hard and improve as much as possible.”
"As for my thoughts on winning the championship, I'm mainly grateful to Beijing University, the Field Management Center, Shuicheng County's Second High School, and Shuicheng County's Sports Bureau. I've come a long way without them nurturing me.”
"Finally, I want to say that my strength is still far from the world's top level. I will continue to work hard.”
After answering the question, Yang Zhuo wanted to leave.
A reporter asked.
"Yang Zhuo, you're so good at the 100m sprint. Will you take on the 200m sprint as well?”
At this time, Yu Weili said," Our track and field team is still studying this problem. Thank you for your support. Thank you. Please make way."”
Most of the athletes had left.
Yang Zhuo was at the back, following Yu Weili and Li Qing back to the Field Management Center.
There was also a commendation ceremony at night.
Outside.
As soon as he came out, he met a group of young people.
Someone recognized Yang Zhuo.
He was a little excited.
"Yang Zhuo is awesome!"
"World Champion!"
"Yang Zhuo, you're amazing!"
"Are you participating in the Asian Championship?"
"Kill the little notebook! And win the Asian championship!"
"Charge, charge, charge!"
"We will support you!"
Yang Zhuo was touched. He smiled and replied,"I will work hard!"
After getting into the car.
Yang Zhuo leaned back in his chair and let out a long sigh.
It finally quieted down.
Unfortunately, he had rested for a while.
"Are you tired? Go back and have a good rest."
Li Qing then added," There's still the Golden League. The last stop is the Bruxels-Stronghold. Don't go there. Let's summarize the experience of this period of competition and make targeted adjustments.”
"Yes."
Yang Zhuo nodded.
The purpose of participating in the competition was to discover problems, adjust, and improve.
It was meaningless to blindly compete and not adjust.
......
At night.
The General Administration of Sports of the People's Republic of China held a commendation meeting in the conference hall of the Field Management Center.
The entire conference hall was decorated with lanterns and streamers.
A red banner hung high above the stage, which read: Commending Ceremony for the Chinese UniversityGames.
All the athletes, coaches, staff, and some leaders of the Sports Bureau were present.
It wasn't the first time Yang Zhuo had attended the commendation ceremony.
The last time he attended was the commendation ceremony for the Nanhe Province delegation after the National Middle School Games.
The process was similar.
First, the Director of the General Administration of Sports gave a speech, praising the performance of the entire Chinese delegation.
" In the Daegu International University Games that just ended, the Chinese university student delegation won 42 gold medals, 27 silver medals, and 17 bronze medals. It was not easy to achieve such a result."
Then, the head of the delegation spoke.
"Everyone here, you've worked hard and fought hard. The one who deserves special praise is Yang Zhuo. He worked hard and won the championship of the men's 100m sprint. He broke the record of the competition, the Chinese record, and the world junior record. Let's give him a round of applause!”
The regiment commander praised Yang Zhuo alone.
The international status of track and field was very important, and the 100m sprint was one of the most important events. Every time the Olympic Games held a flying man competition, it would be the focus of the world.
As an athlete of the national team, Yang Zhuo had broken the record and won the first world championship of the 100m sprint. Naturally, he deserved praise.
Although the other winners were envious, they didn't think anything was wrong.
......
The commendation ceremony ended two hours later.
Yang Zhuo was still very happy.
It was not because he was praised, but because of the bonus.
Moreover, it was a reward from the country.
It was not tax-deductible, and there was no need to distribute it to the Field Management Center, Beijing University, and the coaches.
Because Coach Li Qing also had a bonus.
Yang Zhuo won the 100m sprint championship and the bronze medal for the 4× 100m sprint.
They were all very valuable.
The prize for the champion was 20,000 yuan, the bronze medal was 5000 yuan, and Yang Zhuo also received 50,000 yuan for breaking the record.
A total of 75,000.
In 2003, it was quite a lot.
One had to know that the housing prices in Beijing were only three to four thousand yuan per square meter.
750,000 yuan for 20 square meters.
If he returned to Shuicheng County, he could buy a house with 75,000 yuan.
Of course.
Yang Zhuo would definitely not be satisfied with this amount of money.
Next year was the Athens Olympics.
At that time, he would definitely be able to get an endorsement.
At that time, he did not do anything but buy a house in the capital.
For example, Siheyuan.
He would definitely not lose out if he took advantage of the situation to get a set first.
In a few years, the price of the Siheyuan would skyrocket. By then, it would not be so easy to buy it.
Once he had a house, he would consider other investments.
He wanted to see if there was any way to earn money quickly.
