Almighty Coach

"He saved the American track and field"

"Chinese coach becomes the savior of American track and field"

"From the weakest to the strongest, he created the American road team's counterattack"

Looking at the headlines in the media, James suddenly felt that he was still a good man among the sports commentators. At least in terms of content, what he wrote was not too exaggerated.

The American media has always liked to use an amazing title to attract people's attention, which arouses the reader's desire to read, even if the content of the article does not match the title at all times.

James sighed helplessly. In fact, he is a very professional sports commentator. He hopes to bring some professional analysis to the readers, but unfortunately, he wants to succumb to the market, he wants to survive, so just He has to cater to the reader's taste. He can only write something that the reader likes to read, not what he wants to write.

"When is this day a head!" James stood up with a depressed mood, and then opened himself a bottle of whiskey, he hoped that alcohol can make him feel better.

At the same time, Li Dai, who is far away in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, is also being interviewed by an American reporter.

Today is the eighth competition day of the Olympic track and field events. During the day, there are only two events scheduled for the men ’s 50km race and the women ’s 20km race. These two events do not need to be held at Maracana Stadium, and this is not a project that the US team can win gold. For the US team, walking is focused on participation, so Li Dai did not play all day. Tasks naturally have time to be interviewed by reporters.

The reporter who interviewed Li Dai this time was arranged by the American Association of Athletics Associations. The media where this reporter is located received several good advertising contracts from the American Association of Athletics Associations. .

It is also for this reason that the questions asked by this reporter are all very conducive to the American track and field team. In fact, they are directed in the direction of good news and no worries.

"Coach Li, as of yesterday, the U.S. team you led has won 18 gold medals, which is also the best result of the American track and field in the history of the Olympic Games, and there are only three days left before the end of the Olympic Games, so What I want to ask is, how many gold medals can your team finally win? "The reporter asked the last question with interest.

"As far as it seems, there are no problems with more than 20 gold medals. Among the remaining projects, we still have an advantage in the relay race. So if I didn't set the goal at 20 gold medals." After a while, he said: "I hope my team can finally win at least 25 gold medals."

"25 pieces!" The reporter expressed a surprised expression, and then he immediately said: "Coach Li, you know, on the last day of the Olympics, there is only one marathon left in the track and field, so in fact, the track and field competition is only left tonight and tomorrow , That is to say, in these two days, your team must get at least 7 gold medals. "

"Although this is somewhat difficult, it is not an impossible task. I am confident of accomplishing this goal." Li Dai replied confidently.

The reporter nodded, picked up the recording pen on the table, and received it in his pocket. Then he asked: "Coach Li, regarding your last question, your answer may cause some controversy. I followed what you said. Report it, or do you want to modify it a little bit? "

Li Dai immediately understood the meaning of the reporter. The reporter was worried that Li Dai's cowhide was too blown, and finally lost his face.

"American sports culture, isn't it normal to talk loudly before the game. How come to me is not good." Li Dai murmured secretly, then said: "It doesn't matter, you just follow my Just report it, and you will hear good news by the end of the game tomorrow night. "

...

"Interview with the track and field team coach Li Dai: the goal is 25 gold medals"

That afternoon, this report appeared in the American media.

University of Oregon, coach lounge.

"For every gold medal at 25, he can really dare to say it!" A bearded coach pointed angrily at the tablet screen, and then said: "There are 13 items left for the Olympic track and field competition and no gold medal has been decided. I want to get 25. For a gold medal, it is necessary to take 7 out of the remaining 13 gold medals. How is this possible! "

"Be restless." Coach Logan waved his hand, motioned to calm down, and then said: "Young people, after success, they will always be proud. But even if you can't get 25 gold medals, 20 There is always no problem with a gold medal. This is already the best result ever. Who can do this in your words? "

"That Li Dai was just lucky, and he was able to achieve the current results, mainly due to the strength of the participating athletes!" A black coach next to him said with a straight face.

"Do you really think he's just lucky? If it's you, would Mueller get directly into the US team without selection? Do you have the guts?" Coach Logan snorted, then said: " I have told you that all successful people will always have advantages that ordinary people do not have, and will always have strengths that you do not have. If you have the same strengths, then you will also have the same success as him.

"Okay! I know I'm not the same. But I just can't get used to that arrogance like Li Dai! A villain's ambition." The coach said.

"If he was an American coach, would you still have this idea?" Coach Logan looked very indifferent, then said: "We Americans have been in the world's number one position for too long, we naively thought Other countries are not as good as us, especially when we lag behind our country to achieve some achievements, our first reaction is always 'that is false', but many times, our personal subjective judgment is always different from the fact. People are always Believe what I am willing to believe. I think that only when we are surpassed and thrown away far away, we Americans will realize that we are not the best. "

...

On the other side, after Li Dai sent away the reporter, he began to consider the issue of the evening game.

Tonight's track and field, there are only two preliminary events, namely the men's 4 by 400 meters relay and the women's 4 by 400 meters relay. With the strength of the US team in the 400-meter project, the gold medals of these two projects have already been booked, so Li Daisi is not worried about the preliminary matches of these two projects.

In addition to these two preliminaries, the others are finals, namely women's pole vault, men's hammer, women's 5000 meters, women's 4 by 100 meters and men's 4 by 100 meters.

Among the men ’s hammer throws, no one from the US team reached the finals. The women ’s 5,000 meters. There are Kenya and Ethiopia, a pair of African doubles, and other countries have no chance. As for women's pole vaulting, many masters in European countries have advanced to the finals. With the strength of American athletes, winning gold is basically hopeless. It is possible to fight for medals.

So Li Dai's focus is still on the women's 4 by 100 meters and men's 4 by 100 meters.

The 4x100m relay race has always been a highly valued item. This item is regarded as a criterion for judging the comprehensive level of a country's sprint.

Before the rise of the Jamaicans, the US team had been the ruler of the 4x100m relay race, both men and women. As long as there are no mistakes in the game, the US team will be able to win the championship.

But the rise of Jamaican sprint squeezed the US team into second place, and the Jamaican team has won the 4x100m relay championship for two consecutive Olympics. Therefore, many countries regard Jamaica as the world's first sprint power.

"In terms of the men ’s team, the Jamaican team has lost the thickest thigh, but I have lost Alexander and Ford. This time, the Jamaican team ’s strength in the 4 by 100 meter project is Not as good as the American team. "

"As for the women ’s team, it ’s really a bit overhang. In the previous 100-meter sprint and 200-meter sprint races, the two female trapezes in Jamaica maintained a very good state. The female players on my side, even if they have a chain With the help of the title, there is a gap in strength. Compared with the Jamaica team, the victory is only between five and five. "

"It's like a way to increase the probability of winning." Li Dai dragged his chin, thinking for a long time, and suddenly remembered the new prop he had obtained.

"Otherwise try the prophecy request box? Maybe this new prop can help me." Li Dai thought of this and entered the system, and took out the request box.

After shaking a few times, a bamboo stick flew out of the request box.

Li Dai took the bamboo stick and saw the words "上 上" written on the bamboo stick.

"Sign up! Good luck." Li Dai could not wait to look down, a group of black spots appeared on the bamboo stick:

Let Halena Bob run the third shot.

"Halena-Bob runs the third shot? Is this signing up? Isn't it wrong? How could this be signing up? I said it was signing down and I still believe it, did I get it back?" Li Dai said to himself.

Haleina Bob is a 19-year-old young athlete. Among the four players who participated in the women's relay in the United States, Haleina Bob is the worst player with the least experience. If it were not for the US team to be affected by the doping scandal, many sprinters retired, and it was not her turn to participate in the relay race.

In the relay race, the weaker players generally run the first shot, and the players with stronger short-distance sprint ability go to the second shot. The third shot is often the runner with the highest overall technical stability. The fourth shot Rod is the strongest person to run.

In general, the third and fourth sticks are the most important links in the relay race, especially the third stick, which is responsible for receiving and passing the baton. Athletes are often the most trusted coaches.

In the American team, Haleina Bob is responsible for the first shot.

In Li Dai's opinion, Haleyna's speed is not fast enough, and the technology is not good enough, and she is too young, and the play is not necessarily stable. Li Daike does not dare to entrust him with a heavy responsibility. The only advantage of Haleina is that the youth is quick and the starting reaction The time is also shorter, and running the first shot is sufficient.

But the signing that Li Dai asked for showed that letting Harena go to the extremely important third shot, which seemed to Li Dai to be a terrible decision.

"The third stick is so important, how can Haleyna run? She wants speed without speed, technology without technique, stability without stability, experience without experience. More importantly, when practicing before He has only practiced the batting, and has not practiced the baton! Is this a mistake in signing? "Li Dai asked.

The fundamental difference between the first and third sticks is that the first stick is only responsible for handing over the stick, and the third stick is not only responsible for handing over the stick, but also taking over the stick. This is equivalent to a very complicated task.

The relay baton is not a static one. The baton will first run up, and then complete the baton during the running process. Considering the speed of the athletes, the baton is not a very simple action. This is like refueling an aircraft. Refueling in the air is much more difficult than static refueling, because during the refueling in the air, the aircraft is flying.

At the same time, the baton must also be completed in the relay zone. Once the runner is out of the relay zone, the athlete has not completed the baton, which is equivalent to a foul. The relay zone in the relay is only 20 meters, and the 20-meter visual inspection may be very long, but considering that the athletes only need 10 seconds to run 100 meters, so the entire process of the handover, the athlete has only two seconds to complete the entire set of handovers. So neither the batting side nor the batting side can tolerate a slight mistake. A slight mistake may be the failure of a whole game.

Haleina-Bob is the first athlete to run. She does not need to take the baton, so she just practiced the batting before the game, but not the batting. Regardless of the athlete's individual level and game experience, if he said that a player who did not practice taking over, Li Dai could rest assured that he would run the third shot.

At this point, the voice of the system sounded from Li Dai ’s mind: “Do n’t question the prophecy request box. The strength of the prophecy request box is not to tell you what you think is good and what kind of decision is bad, but it 'S prophecy ability ~ www.readwn.com ~ I understand, you mean, the result of the prediction box must be correct. "Li Dai nodded, but he was still hesitant in his heart, do you want to believe this signing Let Harena-Bob go for the third shot.

The sound of the system sounded again: "For you human beings, the unknown is always the most terrible thing. If you can know the future, how much are you willing to pay?"

Li Dai was hesitant. He didn't know how to answer this question.

"I don't know." Li Dai shook his head: "I don't know how much to pay for it."

"Or do you think that at any price, it is not enough to exchange the ability to predict the future?" The system asked.

"You want to remind me of the value of 'prophecy'?" Li Dai asked.

The system did not respond anymore, but Li Dai already had a decision in mind.

"Okay, I will sign according to this and let Haleina Bob run the third shot!"
