Administration.

In the director's office, Director Hou held the reading glasses on his nose and carefully read the documents in his hand.

Director Hou is an athlete, and after retiring, he took charge of the women's volleyball team and led the women's volleyball team into its most glorious moment. Later, he entered the General Administration of National Sports, which was still called the Sports Commission at that time, and witnessed the growth and glory of national sports step by step from Xu Haifeng's first Olympic gold medal, and it can be said that he dedicated his life to the country's sports cause.

This year, Director Hou is 64 years old, and after the Athens Olympics next year, he will retire from the sports post he has fought for all his life. But at this moment, he does not have the slightest slack about retirement, he wants to stand on the last shift, not only for that duty, but also for the cause he loves and fights for all his life.

Many people think that next year's Athens Olympics will be a preparation for the Olympic Games in the capital, so there is no need to be too strict about the results. But Director Hou does not think so, he very much hopes that the national team can achieve excellent results in the Athens Olympic Games, but also hopes to be able to make breakthroughs in some events, although patriotic sentiment dominates, but for an old man who is about to retire, it is a perfect end to decades of work.

At this moment, what Director Hou is holding is the list of people who have reached the Olympic participation standards in the current track and field events.

Liu Feiren in the 110-meter hurdles is obviously the brightest star on this list, and he is also the most favored player by Director Hou. According to the current level of Liu Feiren, it is enough to be able to impact a medal in the Olympic Games, so as to achieve a breakthrough of zero medals in the men's track and field short event of the national team.

"Huh?" Director Hou swept his eyes over the men's 100-meter sprint, but found that there were two names, both marked with Olympic A mark.

"Two people!" Director Hou took a closer look to confirm that he was not mistaken, and then his eyes shone with excitement.

"The men's 100-meter sprint is usually so reluctant to enter the Olympic B standard, but this time two people have reached the A standard, and they may be able to run into the second round. Jian Chen? I've heard this name, I seem to have won a medal in the last Asian Games, and he is a very good young man; Zhang Guan? Who's this? Director Hou thought about it carefully and found that he was not impressed at all, so he asked the secretary to come in, pointed to the list and said, "Go and bring the information of the two athletes in the men's 100 meters." ”

The secretary immediately went to inform the Athletics Association, and in less than 20 minutes, the information of Chen Jian and Zhang Guan was transmitted to the secretary's e-mail.

Chen Jian, runner-up in the 100 meters at the 2001 East Asian Games; In 2002, he won the third place in the 100-meter and the third place in the 4-by-100-meter Asian Games. 2002 National Track and Field Grand Prix Finals 100-meter Champion ......" Director Hou looked at Chen Jian's data on a row of honors, and always saw the "National Track and Field Championships Huangpu Station 100-meter Champion" just achieved.

Director Hou showed a satisfied smile on his face, and said to himself: "National Track and Field Championships Huangpu Station, personal best time of 10.17 seconds. This event seems to have been completed only before yesterday, which means that this Chen Jian is in good shape now, and he may be able to make a breakthrough if he is sent to the Olympics, which is very good. ”

Director Hou opened Zhang Guan's information again.

"Zhang Guan, only seventeen years old, so young!" Director Hou then looked down, and there was only one honor in the honor column of "Asian Athletics Championships Trials".

Director Hou's face suddenly became gloomy. He called the secretary, pointed to Zhang Guan's poor information, and asked, "What's going on?" Why is there only this line? ”

The secretary knew that Director Hou felt that Zhang Guan's information was too little, and thought that he was not doing things well. He immediately opened his mouth to defend himself: "I just wanted to report to you, for this Zhang Guan, the Athletics Association gave these information, I just received this information and thought that the Athletics Association had leaked, so I called the Athletics Association to confirm, the Athletics Association said that Zhang Guan was only seventeen years old, and had not participated in any events before, and the Asian Athletics Championships Qualifiers were the first official competition that Zhang Guan participated in, so there was only this record." ”

Director Hou's expression softened a lot, and then asked: "Since there is no record of the game, there should always be a training situation!" For example, which sports school he trained in, which sports school selected him, and which coach he followed before. Here, there is only the household registration and the team registration where you are located. ”

"According to the news of the Athletics Federation, this Zhang Guan only had two months of formal training when he participated in the Asian Athletics Championships, and he was not selected by the sports school training, he was an ordinary high school student and had not experienced sports training." The secretary paused, and whispered: "It is said that this Zhang Guan was unintentionally excavated by Chen Lao. ”

"Did Lao Chen dig it?" Director Hou nodded, and Director Hou still recognized Chen Lao's ability very much.

"So this athlete wasn't selected from the system." Director Hou tapped lightly on the table, and the word "genius" kept flashing in his mind.

There is a complete system for the training of domestic athletes, and sports teams and sports schools at all levels occupy a large amount of staffing and financial allocation, and are also responsible for the selection and training of athletes. Those athletes who have become famous have basically spent nine years of compulsory education training, and athletes in sports such as gymnastics have been training since they were three or four years old. And in this case, an athlete who is not from the system can achieve this kind of results, which can only show that he is a genius!

I saw Director Hou suddenly shake his head and said, "No, we can't send such a person with no competition experience to participate." This Zhang Guan has never been on the international stage, and it is definitely not possible to go directly to the Olympics, which is too irresponsible. The Olympic Games is not only a sports meeting, but also a manifestation of the country's image, even if it is just an appearance, even if it is just an appearance, it also represents the country! We can lose the game, but we must not lose face for the country. ”

Director Hou's generation of sports people has experienced too much, the war of the country when he was young, the passion of the construction of his youth, the growing strength of the country after middle age and the re-emergence of a great power after old age, when he was a coach, he led the team to fight abroad many times, from the very beginning to the hostility and indifference of the Western world, to the respect and praise of the West later, so no one can better understand the importance of the national image than their generation of sports people. And the Athens Olympics was his last major event in office, and he wanted every member of the team to achieve good results.

I saw Director Hou take out a pen and write instructions under Zhang Guan's information: ensure that he participates in an international event before the Athens Olympics and strive to accumulate experience in international competitions! Strive not to be nervous or stage frightened during the Olympics.

……

Field Management Center.

Director Ma summoned everyone to the conference room again.

"Director Hou personally gave instructions, everyone has already circulated it! The leaders of our center personally instructed me to strictly implement Director Hou's instructions and implement them to the letter. The main purpose of today's meeting is to discuss this matter. Director Ma said and looked at Director Yu and said, "Director Yu, you are mainly responsible for the sprint project, so you can tell your opinion first." ”

Director Yu coughed dryly, cleared his throat, and said: "I'll talk about the domestic event first, this year's competition is only left with the year-end Grand Prix of the National Track and Field Championships in November, and this event needs to accumulate enough points in the previous races to participate, so Zhang Guan is not eligible." As for next year's event plan, there will be the National Indoor Track and Field Championships after the Spring Festival, and the round robin of the National Track and Field Grand Prix will start in April, but there should be a stop in the National Track and Field Grand Prix is the selection of the Athens Olympic Games. Excluding the preparation time for the Olympic Games, I estimate that Zhang Guan will be able to participate in one or two stops at most in the National Track and Field Grand Prix. ”

"So little?" Director Ma frowned, and then asked, "What about international competitions?" ”

"Internationally, there will be the 9th Asian Athletics Championships later this month. Zhang Guan did not qualify for the World Athletics Grand Prix, and there will be no other events this year. Next year's Golden League will be held at a high level, and it will be held mainly in Europe, and the level of our country's athletes will not be able to obtain an invitation from the organizing committee; The series of next year's World Athletics Grand Prix requires the age of 18 to participate, and Zhang Guan will only be 18 years old in the second half of next year, and his age does not meet the registration requirements. Then it's time for the Olympics. Director Yu said.

"Isn't that all that is left for the 9th Asian Athletics Championships later this month?" Director Ma thought for a while, and then asked, "What about the youth competition?" ”

"There are relatively few youth competitions, but next year there will be a World Junior Athletics Championships. The tournament will take place at the end of July and the beginning of August next year, in Italy, a short distance from Athens. Director Yu said.

Director Ma sighed a little disappointed: "Time does not allow, the Athens Olympic Games will open on August 13, and before that, the participating athletes still need to participate in training, especially for first-time athletes, there will be more training courses." In addition, the deadline for entries for the Athens Olympics is early July. ”

Everyone present immediately understood that the registration materials of the athletes of the Athens Olympic Games must need to be reviewed by the General Administration of Sports of the People's Republic of China, and the World Youth Athletics Championships had not yet started at that time, so Zhang Guan's registration materials still had no experience in international competitions, which obviously showed that the center did not go to implement the orders of the General Administration, and this kind of thing was absolutely not allowed to happen.

"It seems that only the 9th Asian Athletics Championships will be held in the second half of the year. Let's send a letter to let Zhang Guan participate in the Asian Athletics Championships. Director Ma said helplessly.

"Is that an additional entry or a replacement for the existing participants?" Director Yu immediately asked.

Director Ma thought for a while and said, "Replace the original participants!" At this time, the quota has already been decided, the financial allocation has been in place, and it is calculated according to the capitation. It's not easy to explain the audit. ”

Director Yu then asked, "What about the 4 x 100 meter project?" Zhang Guan didn't run the relay at all! ”
