Chapter 83: People of Two Worlds

In the evening, all the games were over. In the hotel where the Chinese team lived, the Zhejiang chef specially cooked several dishes, and then took out the Shaoxing old wine that had been treasured from China, and held a celebration banquet for Chen Qiang.

On the other hand, Kishi Kichi is also apologizing to Lieutenant General Oshima.

"Lieutenant General Oshima, I'm very sorry, I'm not able to complete the task you assigned." An Qingyi knelt down and expressed his apology.

"President An Qing doesn't have to do this." Lieutenant General Oshima helped An Qingichi up with his own hands, and then said: "There is an old Chinese saying that planning is for people and success is for heaven. Your plan is fine, but our opponents are too strong!"

Kishikii stood up, then knelt in front of Lieutenant General Oshima with a guilty look on his face.

Lieutenant General Oshima continued: "I originally wanted to use an Asian record to inspire our Japanese people to persevere and survive this economic crisis, but I didn't expect that the Asian record would become Chinese. To be honest, I am very worried that this news will boost the national confidence of the Chinese people, and there will even be Chinese people who think that they will be stronger than the Japanese."

An Qingyi said "Hi" and continued to lower his head to listen.

Lieutenant General Oshima continued: "The future strategy of the empire is to turn China into a colony of the empire and make all the Chinese become slaves of the empire. But there are too many Chinese people. Even if only one-tenth of the population resists, it will cause huge trouble to the empire. So I don't want a confident China, nor do I want to see a group of confident Chinese people, which is not conducive to our rule. What we need is a group of cowardly and inferior Chinese people. Only such people can be willing to control the empire and serve the empire. Do you understand what I mean?"

"I understand what the lieutenant general means." An Qingyi continued.

Lieutenant General Oshima took a deep breath and continued: "So President Kishi Kishi, I hope our Japanese athletes can continue to work hard, defeat the Chinese named Chen Qiang as soon as possible, and take back the 'fastest Asia'! China cannot have the best in Asia, and the most Asian must belong to Japan! We must let the Chinese know that the Yamato nation is the best nation in Asia. Everyone in Japan is weak, physically weak, and mentally weak. They should willingly bow to Japan!"

...

At the same time, on the sports field of a school in Japan, Gu San Sanwu was trying to start.

After starting, Gu Sansanwu also lowered his head and accelerated forward like Chen Qiang.

After only a dozen games, Gu Sansanwu felt very awkward. Moreover, the starting speed did not increase faster, but was much slower than usual.

Gu Sansanwu stopped, looked at the ground with his brows frowned, and murmured to himself: "You can't run like this at all."

Gu San Sanwu closed his eyes and tried hard to recall what Chen Qiang looked like after starting. Then he tried it several times again and found that it was still very awkward. From starting to acceleration, it was not smooth at all, and it had no positive impact on speed.

"What's going on? Is my guess wrong? This starting method cannot increase the speed of the starting line, or there are any tricks that I have not mastered." Gu Sansanwu simply sat on the side of the track and frowned and thought.

In the next two hours, Gu San San Wu tried many times, but he still couldn't get to the fast start like Chen Qiang.

Finally, Gu Sansanwu chose to give up.

Chen Qiang's start came from later generations. Since the squat-starting start appeared in front of the world in 1896, generations of sports people have been constantly improving the start, from the initial attempts with their bodies to later computer simulation analysis, which has led to the continuous improvement of starting technology.

How could Gu Sansanwu discover the tricks of this kind of squat starting that countless coaches and athletes have only been studied by generations?

Not to mention anything else, Gu San Sanwu knows nothing about just adjusting the center of gravity. Later squatting starts pay attention to the adjustment of the center of gravity. The coach even inputs the athlete's height, weight, arm length and legs into the computer, and then simulates the most suitable center of gravity distribution by the computer. All of this was completely unaware of by people in the 1930s.

People in the 1920s and 1930s would think that it was just a running step? Why did it still focus on the body? Why did it involve physical knowledge?

Sports technology and concepts that have been ahead of a century cannot be mastered by just looking at them. It is precisely because of this that Chen Qiang is very unscrupulous about using new technologies, and no one can learn them after reading them.

What's more, such as stomping and forward swinging techniques, even if Chen Qiang is using them, others can't see that the 100-meter sprint is a fast sport, and with the naked eye of humans, it is impossible to capture details. At least before the high-speed camera appears, no one will understand Chen Qiang's technology.

...

From May 24 to May 31, the 9th Far East Games lasted for eight days.

Although Chen Qiang won the championship in the 100-meter sprint event and broke the Asian record, the Chinese team did not win the track and field championship in the end.

In other events, the Chinese football team is still very good. Under the leadership of Chinese football king Li Huitang, the Chinese football team won the championship in the Far East Games for the eighth time.

In addition, the volleyball team also achieved good results, defeating Japan and the Philippines one after another, and finally winning the championship.

The day after the Far East Games ended, the Chinese team left Tokyo by boat and returned to Shanghai.

...

On the dock, welcome banners and flowers are ready. People from the Ministry of Education, the National Sports Association and the Shanghai Municipal Government are all here. They are going to welcome athletes back to their homeland.

Of course, the reporters would not miss this opportunity. In addition to the reporters from Nanjing, reporters from major newspapers in Shanghai also came to the scene.

With the arrival of officials and journalists, many citizens watching the fun gradually gathered here. They wanted to witness with their own eyes what these athletes who brought glory to the country look like.

The passenger ship docked and the cabin door opened. The contestants participating in the Far East Games got off the boat one by one, and then began to enjoy the flowers and applause. Next, a small-scale welcome party was held on the dock.

Several coachmen mixed in the crowd, holding their feet and stretching their heads to watch the fun.

"Hey, that person looks like Brother Chen!" a coachman said.

The coachmen looked at Chen Qiang one after another.

"It really looks like Brother Chen."

"It was carved out from the same mold."

"I think Brother Chen is not as strong as him, right?"

"After that being said, we have to have not seen Brother Chen in more than a month."

"Yes, without Brother Chen, I haven't attracted foreigners in a long time."

The coachmen all exclaimed that life without Chen Qiang made them less money.

Suddenly, a voice sounded: "You guys, is that really Brother Chen? He hasn't appeared for more than a month and is just going to participate in the competition!"

"It's impossible! They are all coachmen. They participate in any competition. The competitions are all things that rich people and foreigners play. Even if you are asked to go to the competition, do you understand?" Someone immediately retorted.

The man shook his head: "Hehe, I don't understand, but Brother Chen is not an ordinary coachman. Don't forget that he can speak foreign languages ​​and foreigners know things, maybe Brother Chen can do it too!"

"It's really possible. Could it be that person is really Brother Chen?"

The coachmen still didn't believe it. The person who shook hands and took photos with flowers in his hands and shook hands with the officials was Chen Qiang. Although the coachmen did not know the officials, they could feel that those were all big shots. The coachmen did not think that the "Brother Chen" who pulled the car with them could shake hands with a group of big shots.

Someone couldn't help but shouted in the direction of Chen Qiang: "Brother Chen!"

Hearing this title, Chen Qiang instinctively looked up. However, there were too many people around him, and he did not see the coachman brothers in the crowd.

"He looked at this side, he is really Brother Chen!" The shouting man became excited.

"Is it really Brother Chen? He really went to be a sports athlete? So awesome!"

"When he comes back to pull the cart, I must ask him carefully what's going on and how he participated in the competition."

"Yes, I have to ask him what foreign countries are like."

The coachmen immediately started to talk.

Only Huang Dayan shook the big cigarette puddle in his hand, and then sighed softly: "Stop thinking about it, Brother Chen will never come back to pull the cart!"

The coachmen were slightly stunned. They looked at Chen Qiang, who was full of energy in the distance, and looked at themselves.

At this moment, they finally realized that Chen Qiang and the coachman were already people from two worlds.
