Chapter 99 Negative news before the final
At 11:00 in the morning, perhaps because of the lack of complete recovery of physical fitness in the first round of preliminaries, in the second round of the rematch, most of the athletes aimed to advance, and the capable athletes also adopted conservative running methods.
In the second round of the rematch, Wang Ben advanced to the semi-finals with 10.21 seconds.
"Hello..."
Just after leaving the stadium, Zhang Ben and his party were stopped by several reporters: "Can you interview Mr. Wang Ben?"
The microphone in the hands of this reporter is the logo of "Seoul Sports News". The English was very slippery, and Wang Ben didn't understand it at all. The reporter smiled and hurriedly said, "It won't take too much of your time, one minute, only one minute of yours..."
"Okay, we agree to your interview..."
Yu Wei directly agreed to the request with a smile.
Zhang Ben sighed and didn't say much. Zhang Ben wanted to refuse this interview, but Wang Ben has never participated in reporter interview training, and he does not know that these foreign reporters have several pitfalls in every sentence. If they fall into the trap designed by others, it will not only be embarrassing Wang Ben, it may also have a negative impact on the country.
"Be careful, don't lose confidence, don't be too arrogant, say what you should say, don't say what you shouldn't say..."
After all, Wang Ben was only seventeen years old and had never experienced such a scene.
Just after Zhang Ben finished his instructions, seven or eight reporters surrounded Wang Ben, and Zhang Ben was pushed out.
"There's not much time. I'm very tired from participating in two games in a row. If you have any questions, just ask them directly..."
Wang Ben's English proficiency is only the level of the third grade of junior high school, and he still failed. He couldn't understand what these reporters were muttering, so he could only say this.
"Mr. Wang Ben..."
Unexpectedly, among the reporters on the other side, there are reporters who can speak Chinese, and their words are eloquent: "Hello, my name is Li Xiao, I am Korean Chinese, I will ask you a question now, what do you think about athletes who use doping? What's your opinion?"
As soon as this question came out, Zhang Ben knew it was not good.
The other party is obviously a carefully designed question, deliberately digging a hole for Wang Ben...
Just as he was about to walk over, as a coach, Zhang Ben had the right to be interviewed on behalf of his disciples.
At this time, Wang Ben replied: "Using doping is a very unfair behavior and a behavior that goes against the spirit of sports. It's a fluke for a while, and it's a lifetime delay..."
Zhang Ben was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Wang Ben's answer, which made him very satisfied and relieved a little.
"Then Mr. Wang Ben, what is your goal for this Asian Games... Do you have any idea of โโbreaking the Asian record?"
This question is not difficult. As an athlete, who does not want to win the championship? Who doesn't want to break records? Whether there is strength or not is another matter. As an athlete, you must have this kind of goal.
Wang Ben also answered in the same way. Obviously, it is quite satisfactory.
"Good answer..."
Zhang Ben smiled slightly, pulled Wang Ben away from the reporters, and when he got on the bus, Chen Hai laughed: "In the past, these foreign reporters rarely interviewed Chinese athletes. Although you are not the first, but the 100 meters You're one of the very few..."
In domestic sprints, there are not many excellent results abroad, and naturally, there are not many opportunities for interviews.
"hey-hey..."
Wang Ben smiled complacently: "The coach told me before to read more classic answers when others were interviewed, and I learned a little along..."
............
The next morning, Wang Ben and other athletes ran around the hotel in the morning.
Zhang Ben came to the restaurant first and had breakfast. He had a brief meeting to attend, and he would run out of time to eat breakfast later... After the meeting, he should leave for the main arena to play.
This restaurant is a Chinese restaurant. The waiters here are either from China to work, or students studying in South Korea on a work-study program. Therefore, after coming to Korea, only here did Zhang Ben feel a sense of comfort.
Entering the restaurant, Zhang Ben faintly heard words such as Wang Ben and record breaking. saw that there was a newspaper rack by the wall of the restaurant, with some newspapers on it, in English, Japanese, and Korean...
Of course, only there is no Chinese version.
Zhang Ben frowned and picked up a newspaper in Korean, because the front page of this newspaper was the shot of Wang Ben's preliminaries rushing to the line yesterday...
Sitting at the dining table, Zhang Ben saw a girl looking at him quietly. This girl, Zhang Ben, is also a little familiar. She and Zhang Ben are fellows and study here. With a slight smile, Zhang Ben beckoned: "This classmate, how about helping you translate this newspaper?"
The girl sat opposite Zhang Ben and began to translate for Zhang Ben. At the beginning, Yu Wei and a director of the field management center also came to the restaurant.
Hearing the contents of the newspaper, the Director Cai was very dissatisfied.
Director Cai frowned more and more deeply: "Korean journalists are too irresponsible. There are too many ways to smear and spread rumors."
First, "Seoul Sports News", the title is: Chinese 100-meter trapeze, suspected doping.
Followed by MBC newspaper: Chinese athlete fantasies to break the Asian record.
"A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier, an athlete who doesn't want to break records is not a qualified athlete. Young people have some momentum and fantasies, which is a good thing.
A simple interview, so blackened by these sticks? Isn't Wang Ben already running 9.99 seconds faster than the wind? Isn't this a proof? Why don't they report it? Are these foreign media mindless? Although the result of super wind speed is not included in the record, it is still a real result. If you work harder, it shouldn't be difficult to actually run to 9.99 seconds. "
The Korean reporter said that Wang Ben's desire to break the Asian record was an illusion, but Director Cai didn't take it seriously: "But just yesterday, our Liu Feiren broke the Asian record of 110 hurdles in the European arena. The 100m record is not too soon. What's the fuss about?"
Signaling the waiter to read the third newspaper, Zhang Ben has become a foil. What can Zhang Ben say, Yu Wei was also there yesterday. Although Wang Ben's answer in the interview was not perfect, it would not leave a tail that people could catch.
This time, Wang Ben is also famous in South Korea. They are all front-page headlines, with photos of Wang Ben running.
"Chinese players threatened: Asian Games to break Asian records."
"Chinese 100-meter flying man, suspected doping."
"Chinese who can't afford to lose, cheat and use illegal drugs."
Several newspapers in succession were all about Wang Ben. Listening to that girl's translation, Zhang Ben was completely stunned, these Koreans like YY so much? It's too obvious that these interviews are made up.
Director Cai has been frowning. In the small land of South Korea, these newspapers do not have a conscientious newspaper?
"This Wang Ben must have been tricked by a reporter and said something he shouldn't have said. After returning to China, Wang Ben must be trained to deal with reporters."
Zhang Ben and Yu Wei can testify on this point, there is absolutely no...
After hurriedly eating a few bites of breakfast, Director Cai bid farewell to Zhang Ben and Yu Wei, got in the car and went straight to the main stadium. For the urine test conducted by Wang Ben yesterday afternoon, Director Cai must contact the competition committee, contact the urine test center, and hold a press conference to clarify the matter.
This matter must be clarified, otherwise it will have a great impact on the athletes, and even have an extremely bad impact on the entire Chinese national team.
......
At the same time, Ibe Takuku, a hotel living in Japan, put several newspapers in front of Hebian Bei Dao and said at the same time, "Kawabe-kun, please read these reports."
Hebian Bei Dao quickly read these newspapers, and was silent for a long time: "This Wang Ben is obviously a very strong athlete who is probably even greater than Japanese athletes. South Korea, a nation with a low level of competition, is also qualified to discredit Wang Ben? It's immoral for them to spread rumors like this."
Hebian Bei Dao seems to have forgotten. Yesterday he was thinking about how to reveal such news to South Korean reporters.
Today, he is a bit righteous and awe-inspiring...
The Japanese have always respected the strong and despised the weak. This is a cultural heritage.Wang Ben ran 9 seconds and 99 seconds in super wind speed in the rematch, which is not even in Japan.Therefore, although the Japanese did not accept Wang Ben, they respected this strong man very much.
"Hebian-kun, this is Korea..."
Takuo Jingbei smiled slightly: "Do you think these Koreans are a moral nation?"
Hebian Bei Dao smiled, not wanting to comment on this matter.Unless the blind or the fool, or except the Korean nationals, who does not know the methods of Korean sports?
Putting down the newspaper, Hebian Bei Dao laughed again: "The Korean media not only smeared Wang Ben, but also smeared the entire Chinese sports. China is a country with a good face, and I think this Wang Ben is going to run into trouble."
