King Of Sports

After getting off the plane, patrolling police cars could be seen everywhere on the street. The roads were also quite clean and tidy. Coupled with the pleasant climate here, it was a pleasant arrival.

However, they didn"t have time to waste. They went straight to the Olympic Village and after registration they quickly entered the area where they were staying.

This time, the archery team was originally prepared to let the Deputy Head Coach Guo Wenfeng lead the team, but after adding Tang Yan to the team, Tian Zhenzhe decided to come along to Singapore with the team.

This time, the archery team sent a total of three people to partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion. In addition to Tang Yan, there were two other people namely Li Haoze from the Xinjiang Province and Zheng Zhun from Hu Jian.

They were grouped into two"s and given rooms to share, Li Haoze and Zheng Zhun were arranged together in a room, while Tang Yan was put together with a boxing athlete.

.....

Dragging in his luggage, Tang Yan began to unpack. After sorting out everything and taking a shower, he was preparing to rest.

When his roommate finally entered, compared with Tang Yan"s small body, this boxer could be said to be made of solid muscle.

As he entered he seemed to be lost in thought, looking somewhat down.

"Are you Tang Yan?" Just as he was about to lie down, the boxer on the other side of the room took the initiative to say h.e.l.lo to him.

"Yeah I am, your here for boxing?" Tang Yan asked.

"How did you know?" the boxer asked in confusion.

Tang Yan pointed to the backpack on his bed, and a pair of boxing gloves hung on the side of the backpack.

The boxer looked back and saw it, then he laughed and reached out saying, "h.e.l.lo, I am Lu Yun from Guangxi Guilin."

Tang Yan reached out and shook hands with Lu Yun, and couldn"t help but say: "Oh a light hand shake. Wow."

Lu Yun smiled and couldn"t help but laugh. This little joke seemed to bring the two closer together.

"Can"t afford to injure that hand of yours or the whole of China will be after me, " said Lu Yun with a smirk.

"Hahaha your exaggerating, at most Coach Tian will come at you with a broom." Tang Yan said with a smile.

"Either way can"t risk that, especially not with the "Hope of Chinese Archery".

"With all the news on you, you would forget that there are other sports.

Like d.a.m.n people, I won the national boxing champions.h.i.+p, where"s my love." Lu Yun said with a smiling grimace.

"Haha~ Well, they are just using me as a poster child." Tang Yan said with a small smile.

After laughing for a while, feeling his earlier words weren"t suitable. Lu Yan said with reluctance: "Sorry."

"It"s just boxing in this country, especially amateur boxing doesn"t get any love or attention." Lu Yun said with a look of frustration.

Boxing was very hot in the United States, but in China, it"s popularity in 2010 wasn"t so great, listening to Lu Yun"s tone, this should be a young and talented boxer who wanted to revitalize domestic boxing, although he couldn"t tell him that he knew that boxing would prosper in the future, but at least he could rea.s.sure him there was a future in it.

" I"m sure interest will pick up once they see what you"re made of and you win. After all the same was true for archery till now."

"Well I don"t know how much longer I can hang on, my family situation isn"t great, I wanted to pick a career that could make money. My dad also thinking this let me learn boxing. But I didn"t expect the domestic boxing scene was so bad. How am I meant to make money at this rate?" Lu Yun said looking at Tang Yan.

Tang Yan was shocked by Lu Yun"s reply.

However, if he thought about it, Guangxi was a relatively poor place in China. It was also reasonable to want to change your fate through sports.

"You are worried about this?" Tang Yan asked.

"Wouldn"t you be?"

"In fact, we are very lucky." Tang Yan said with a touch of emotion. "There are many people who have the same desire as us, who have dreams and may have put in all their effort. But they can never reach our stage in life, they can only treat this as a hobby, we now have the opportunity to move further to a higher level."

He said as he looked at Lu Yun: "So I feel that in this case, worrying about this isn"t necessary, rather than thinking about this, it is better to think about how to secure yourself a medal. After that I"ll be surprised if people aren"t throwing money at you to continue boxing."

Lu Yun"s expression brightened up and he smiled and said: "Sure enough, old age brings wisdom."

"How do you know I"m not younger than you."

"Your eighteen right?"

"Yeah."

"Then your older, I"m seventeen, it seems I"ll have to call you older brother."

Tang Yan smiled, unconsciously he had become accustomed to Lu Yun"s direct nature.

...

After a day of rest, the next day, Tian Zhenzhe took them to the training hall to prepare.

The group went to the entrance of the training hall, but they were caught off guard by the fact that their area inside was already taken.

The Singapore government had built a special training hall for the Youth Olympics. Because there were many teams partic.i.p.ating in the compet.i.tion, each team"s training schedule time was staggered. Like from 8:00 am to 10:00 am, the training hall was the Chinese teams.

But now, they found another team occupying their training slot.

Tian Zhenzhe"s brows wrinkled, going inside with the translator he went to find out what was up.

After about five to six minutes, Tian Zhenzhe came back with an angry expression, and began to swear.

Tang Yan and the others looked at each other confused.

They looked at the translator in a tone of inquiry.

Song Yu explained: "The venue that was originally arranged for us is being used by the South Korean Team. The South Korean coach said that the organizing committee informed them to come here to train, we are gonna have to communicate with the organizers."

"Communicate my a.s.s, this group of Koreans are clearly occupying our slot on purpose, no, I have to call Chairman Cai." Tian Zhenzhe said taking out his phone and dialing a number.

After the phone call was over, it took about two to three minutes but then some staff members rushed over to the venue. First, they promised to solve the problem. But after talking with the Koreans inside.

They came back and said: "I am sorry, but the venue was indeed arranged for them to train. There is a conflict of schedules which is due to an issue on our part, I will arrange a new venue for you to train, in the suburbs. Can you wait just a while?"

"Why do we have to move!" After Song Yu translated, Li Haoze was the first to disagree.

"We are truly sorry for the mix up. You can rest a.s.sured that our organizing committee will be responsible for your transportation expenses." The man patted his chest and promised.
