I can extract side effects

Haishi, a certain villa in the suburbs.

Hou Wenjie came to the familiar house number, pushed open the concealed courtyard door, and walked into a sea of ​​flowers.

On both sides of the gravel road, there are countless flowerpots piled up layer by layer. The flowers are colorful and in full bloom. When they fall into people's eyes, they are as beautiful as the most colorful oil paintings.

He didn't care to look at the flowers, and walked straight all the way to the gate, which was also ajar, and heard a faint sound coming from inside, as if someone was waiting for his arrival.

Hou Wenjie pushed the door in nervously. He has been selected for the national team for many years, but his performance has been tepid. Seeing that he is getting older and older, he is already a veteran in his 30s and has no future in the World Championships.

Seeing that the national marathon is getting more and more popular day by day, and the prize money is getting higher and higher day by day, and then look at the pitifully small wages in the team, I can't help but feel anxious.

However, as a professional player registered by the Athletics Association, he is restricted by the training and competition plan and cannot compete casually according to his personal wishes.

The monthly training tasks of the national team are very heavy. If they secretly run to participate in the marathon and affect the state of the game, it must be a violation of the rules and will be dealt with seriously.

After deliberation, looking at the balance in the salary card, and encouraged by his wife, he finally submitted an application for retirement to the leader.

As long as the approval is obtained, he can be removed from the Athletic Association and look for Qian Jing in various marathon competitions as an 'amateur'.

However, as soon as the application was submitted, Coach Shi received a call, saying that he wanted to have a good talk with him.

Coach Shi was considered his noble person. At the beginning, he liked his performance in the provincial team and was directly promoted to the national team. Although he was not directly responsible for his training later on, he was always kind and amiable and treated him like a loving father.

"Hey, how are we going to tell Coach Shi about this later?"

"He is so optimistic about me, but I have become a deserter and want to retire to make money. I am really sorry for his cultivation."

Hou Wenjie saw the figure sitting upright on the sofa at a glance, and looked at the white hair on the other side's temples, and he couldn't help feeling guilty.

Coach Shi raised his head and smiled pleasantly: "Wenjie, you came early, yes, you are always punctual. Come, sit down and talk slowly."

Hou Wenjie sat down on the sofa next to him, his whole body stretched straight, and he lowered his head, not daring to look at him.

Coach Shi smiled and patted him on the shoulder, poured a cup of hot tea from the teapot on the table, and pushed it over.

"Don't be nervous, you child, why are you so reserved every time you come here, I told you to relax a bit, as if you were at your own home."

However, he is also used to Hou Wenjie's behavior. It is normal for a poor child who came out of a mountain village in Guizhou to come to a first-tier big city and cannot let go.

At that moment, he poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and said slowly.

"I heard you want to retire? You even signed up the report?"

Hou Wenjie was shocked. Sure enough, Coach Shi called him here for this matter.

Could it be that he wants to persuade himself to withdraw his application? This is absolutely not possible. There is no turning back when he starts the bow. Besides, he has already made an agreement with his family. He has even signed up for the recent Yangcheng Marathon.

He murmured softly: "Yes, coach, my parents are getting old and not in good health. I plan to go back to be a filial piety for a while, and wait until my parents are in better health."

"I know I'm sorry for your cultivation and love, I'm really ashamed..."

With a wave of his hand, Coach Shi took out a piece of paper from behind and placed it on the coffee table.

"Wen Jie, you did the right thing. When you reach 30, you really should make more plans for your parents, wife and children."

"I support your decision very much. This matter has been approved by the higher authorities. I have brought the documents for you."

"Huh?" Hou Wenjie raised his head in astonishment, and the excuses he had prepared suddenly became useless.

He hurriedly picked up the document and looked at it. The red seal on his name was very eye-catching. It was indeed an official document approving his retirement.

He was instantly overjoyed: "Coach, thank you."

Now I am not afraid of delaying the marathon two weeks later, and I can concentrate on training during this time.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on his face.

Coach Shi looked at him with great interest, and asked in a very friendly tone: "Wenjie, what are your plans after you retire?"

"Since your parents are not in good health, there are old and young children here, and your wife has to take care of the children and has no job. The financial pressure must be great. If you need help, just say it."

Hou Wenjie immediately showed a grateful expression: "Thank you, coach. The financial pressure is really high. I may go back to my hometown to take care of my parents first, and then I will see if there are any suitable jobs in the county."

Coach Shi pondered and said: "Wenjie, although you haven't achieved much in the past few years, you are still a member of the national team, and you can be regarded as a little famous. It's a pity to retire like this. I don't know if you plan to show yourself in the future. Remaining heat?"

Without waiting for Hou Wenjie's answer, he continued on his own: "The National Marathon has been so prosperous in recent years, and the prize money is so high, don't tell me that you are not tempted at all?"

The smile on Hou Wenjie's face was stifled, and he suddenly stammered: "This, this, there is still, a little moving, tempting."

"That's right, the folk marathon is so popular, whoever is not tempted is a fool." Coach Shi said, slapping his thigh suddenly.

"Wenjie, you are a professional. If you go to run a marathon, you will definitely beat a bunch of amateurs. Are you interested in winning the championship? The prize money will be more than 200,000 yuan, which is enough for you to live in your hometown for a year."

"It's not just one year, three to five years is enough." Hou Wenjie said in his heart, then he was startled.

Did Coach Shi guess that he was going to be a 'Bounty Hunter'? As worthy of the name of the old fox, this matter cannot be hidden from him.

So he nodded, showing a look of anticipation and regret, and said.

"Of course it would be great if I can win the championship. Unfortunately, I know my own strength. I have a group of specially invited black Filipinos. Many of them are running for the World Championships. I can't beat them at all. Winning the championship can only be a dream."

Coach Shi looked at him with a smile: "Then what if I can make you win the championship?"

Hou Wenjie's face suddenly changed: "Coach, you can't do it. I know you have a lot of hands and eyes, but if you are caught cheating, you will be suspended. If it is serious, my life will be over."

Coach Shi's smile froze, and he said angrily, "Who the hell told you to cheat? I haven't done that yet, and it's even more impossible to play tricks on your future."

Hou Wenjie rolled his eyes, and said distressedly: "Then you can only take banned drugs. What if you get caught after a positive drug test? The risk is still very high."

"Coach, I know you're doing it for my own good, but we can't just act fast for a while, we have to take a long-term view."

The smile on Coach Shi's face had disappeared, and he said with a straight face: "Wenjie, are you doubting my IQ? How could I let you do such a thing."

Hou Wenjie quickly waved his hand: "Don't dare, dare not, can you explain carefully?"

Coach Shi coughed lightly, and his expression became serious.

"That's right, Sanqing has developed a new drug, which is suitable for anemic athletes. It can greatly enhance the oxygen transport capacity in the body in a short period of time. The effect is remarkable. It can be metabolized within two hours of injection and excreted through the lungs. It is colorless, odorless, and traceless. .”

"This drug is still in the laboratory stage and will not be marketed, so it will not be included in the list of prohibited drugs. It is a completely legal drug, and only I have connections can get it."

"Currently, I am investigating some long-distance runners with symptoms of anemia, and I want to help them achieve better results."

"Of course, it's best to have the strength of a professional athlete, but also be able to keep an eye on the name of an amateur player, participate in competitions freely, have the blessing of drugs, and get the championship bonus without any problem."

Having said that, he looked over with a smile.

"Wenjie, I also think that you are a good seedling, and you grew up under my hands. The family conditions are also average. I can find a way for you to pay a lot of money."

"Of course, it depends on your own wishes. It's okay if you don't want to. Just help me keep a secret."

Hou Wenjie was surprised and happy when he heard these words.

He has no doubts about Coach Shi's ability. Since the other party can raise this matter, he must be sure.

Suddenly, in his mind, he thought of Xue Shen who came to the national team for training a month ago, and he couldn't help but suddenly realized.

"Xue Shen is also a member of Sanqing. It turns out that he has used this drug a long time ago to achieve such good results. Not only won the million dollar award, but also won the Olympic champion."

Just thinking about these two achievements made his mouth feel parched, and an evil fire kept bubbling out of his heart.

"Xue Shen is an amateur rookie, he can do it, I can't do it."

"I've been running marathons for 20 years, and I haven't won a championship, and I haven't even got a dime in bonuses. Why!"

Gradually, Hou Wenjie's eyes became resolute, and he said in a deep voice: "Coach, I confess, I also have a little anemia, so my grades have been getting worse and worse recently, and my body can't support long-term exercise. This is also the reason for my retirement. "

"You are willing to help me, of course I am, my life will be yours from now on."

"I have always been your person, before, and even more in the future."

Coach Shi grabbed his hand and laughed loudly: "Okay, as expected, he is someone I value."

"I knew it, you are definitely a marathon champion."

"You don't have to worry about the next thing, I will take care of it for you."

"In the future, I will be your coach and agent, and all games will be arranged by me. It is definitely not a dream to earn millions a year."

"And I don't just want to support you in the game, I will also support you and help you become a sports celebrity."

"After you continue to reap bonuses, accumulate high popularity in the marathon circle, and become an 'amateur' at the Internet celebrity level, you will become a brand, and then you can earn more income through opening training camps and brand endorsement channels. "

Hou Wenjie burst into tears of gratitude, and even his voice became choked up.

"Coach, you are my noble person. I have wandered half my life and finally met you. This is the blessing I cultivated in my previous life."

"Hehe, Wenjie, don't be so polite, we will be a family from now on."

Coach Shi patted him on the shoulder and explained his plan in detail.

Hou Wenjie was dazzled when he heard it, and his heart was so agitated, he said with emotion again and again.

"I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful, and you even managed the anti-doping center. You really have good hands and eyes, and you can't find any mistakes at all."

"Being able to hang out with you is the most correct decision I've ever made in my life."

He suddenly remembered something, and his expression was a little embarrassed.

"Well, I've signed up for the Yangcheng Marathon in two weeks' time. I hope it won't affect your plans."

Coach Shi took a deep look at him and said without further consideration, "Since you have registered, you can train as usual and then compete. I will arrange the rest."

"But let's put it bluntly first, the bonus you get will be divided 50-50 with the company, and the future endorsement and other commercial income will be almost the same."

"Don't worry, we are in business and we have a formal agency contract, which is absolutely regulated and legal."

"This share is also one of the best in the industry. You are a national retired player, so you can have such a high percentage. If you are an amateur player, it must not be so high."

Hou Wenjie nodded, and had no objection to the split. After all, without Coach Shi's drugs and connections, he would never have won the championship. Even if he took the drugs himself, he would not be able to pass the drug test.

He finally figured it out, since Coach Shi and the Anti-Doping Center joined forces to control the business, it would be too easy to tamper with the drug test.

Even if you don't do anything, just be a little more lenient with your own people and stricter with others, you can wipe out a large number of competitors.

Those black players, do you want to say that the body is completely normal and you can't find any faults? That's probably not necessarily the case.

To pick a bone in an egg, I can find an excuse no matter what.

As long as the opponent has a positive drug test scandal, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get along in this business.

It is conceivable that, riding the wind of the marathon, his money path is a golden light visible to the naked eye.

*****

Two weeks later, in Yangcheng, an international marathon was held.

At half past six in the morning, in the hotel room.

Hou Wenjie picked up the needle, injected 300ml of nano blood 2.0 into the thigh vein, and then came to the nearby stadium.

On the starting line, there are still more than a dozen black people lined up.

Since he had never won any championships, he could only stand among the amateur players in Area C, nearly 50 meters away from the blacks.

He squinted his eyes and looked forward. Wherever he looked, there was a dark scene.

Infinite fighting spirit surged up in my heart: "Let you gangsters take a good look, there are not only Xue Shen on the land of Huaxia, but also me, Hou Wenjie, how can you allow yourself to be arrogant here!"

boom!

When the starting gun fired, Hou Wenjie ran on the track like a runaway horse.

He has more experience than Xue Shen and is more confident in handling this match.

Speed ​​control, energy replenishment, energy conservation, and the final sprint are all done with great skill and ease.

When he sprinted at a speed of 100 meters, crossed a group of black skins, and was the first to run across the finish line.

The entire audience, the media and the audience, were all erupting.

Thunderous cheers erupted from the crowd instantly, and countless people rushed over and surrounded him.

"we are the champion!"

"we are the champion!"

"We will fight till the end!"

Hearing the passionate shout, Hou Wenjie couldn't help crying, his expression almost lost control.

The belated joy completely overwhelmed him.

It has been 20 years, God knows how long he has endured, and finally got his head out.

Yes, he won the championship.

At the age of 32, as a retired amateur player.

At this moment, Hou Wenjie was extremely grateful to that pharmaceutical company in his heart.

Long live Sanqing!

He fell down on the track, stroking the rough asphalt with his hands.

I repeated this sentence silently in my heart and repeated it many times.
