In the office, Coach He smiled. He personally poured a glass of water for Zhang Guan, and then said: "Zhang Guan, after a few days in the team trial, you don’t have to participate!"

"Don't participate? Why?" Zhang Guan asked.

"After discussion, the team will directly give you a place in the Asian Championships, so you don't have to participate in the qualifiers." Coach He said.

"Give me the quota directly? Why?" Zhang Guan asked somewhat puzzled.

Coach He organized the language before speaking: "Actually, this is the case. Our triathlon team's new sponsor this year hopes to give you a place to participate directly in the Asian Championships."

"It's because of the sponsor!" Zhang Guan nodded silently.

The triathlon team has signed a few new sponsors this year, including competition clothes, shoes, bicycles, etc. These sponsors are actually in the name of Zhang Guan, otherwise who will be idle will be fine Going to sponsor a triathlon that my grandma doesn't hurt?

For sponsors, since they spend money on sponsorship, they naturally need to pay back, and this kind of reward is nothing more than let Zhang Guan use their sponsored products to appear on the competition field. If you can reach the level of the Olympic Games, let the whole world see that nature is the best. If you can't get to the Olympic racing, it is also good to participate in an Asian Championship.

Zhang Guan also knows about sponsors. It is also for this reason that Coach He has always been very polite to Zhang Guan, even responsive. The Triathlon team obviously regards Zhang Guan as the **** of wealth.

In fact, the triathlon is the most important event in the Olympics. It is really scary. Like some small sponsors, if it is for the table tennis team, I am afraid that it is too lazy to watch, but it is placed in the triathlon. In the eyes of the team, that is the huge amount of money that must be won.

Therefore, in the view of coach He, it doesn't matter whether Zhang Guan can achieve results. It is the most important thing to attract and sponsor. After all, triathlons, as weak domestic projects, receive relatively few resources. Their demand for sponsors is far more urgent than other projects.

"In this case, isn't it unfair to other athletes?" Zhang Guan asked.

"In fact, there is nothing fair or unfair." Coach He shook his head, and then said: "Our men's team is relatively weak, even if it is a game in Asia, it is just a good ranking. It is also more difficult to win medals. This Asian track and field championship, as a qualifier for the Olympic Games, actually has only one direct route to London. The chances we can get are very slim. So no matter who is sent, it is almost the same."

"Uh..." Zhang Guan suddenly said nothing.

Coach He's idea is very simple. Anyway, he can't get the Olympic quota. It is better to send Zhang Guan directly to Japan to send Zhang Guan's personal feelings while meeting the sponsor's requirements.

"Is our strength really so weak?" Zhang Guan asked involuntarily.

"It's really so weak." Coach He said rather helplessly: "In the triathlon, the current Asian brother is the Japanese player Yuki Hosoda, the only person in Asia who can qualify for the Olympics by relying on the world ranking. Except for Hosoda. In addition to Yuichi, Japan’s Tian Shanquanhao is also very powerful. He once won the 13th place in the Athens Olympics in 2004! It is the biggest favorite to win the Asian Championships. In addition, Japan has a name called Yamamoto The veteran of, he is good at swimming and long-distance running. He once won the runner-up in the Asian Games. I don’t know if he will participate this time. If he also participates, it is estimated that the top three will be taken over by the Japanese team."

Zhang Guan's direct access to a place in the Asian Championships did not cause dissatisfaction in the triathlon team. The competition of the triathlon men's team is not as fierce as that of the women's team, and the player's level is indeed limited. There is no hope for the Olympic Games.

On the contrary, it was Zhang Guan’s arrival, which attracted sponsors and improved the training and living conditions of the team members. At least they are now eating well, wearing well, and using well. The real thing that came is much better than the illusory Olympic qualification. These real things can guarantee them to go further in the domestic competition.

...

As the host of this Asian Triathlon Championship, Japan is naturally determined to win the championship.

Although the game officially started on April 8, as early as two weeks ago, the head coach of the Japanese triathlon team had already got the list of the triathlon Asian Championship players. This is also the benefit of being a host. You can know which opponents you have in advance, and other countries can only know by waiting for the organizer to announce.

The head coach of the Japanese triathlon team is Hideki Yamane. She was once a professional athlete in the triathlon, and was also the earliest female athlete in Japan.

At this point, coach Yamane Eki has already obtained a list of contestants from various countries, and is checking each one for any opponents worth noting.

"South Korea sent Xu Minhao and Jin Zhushuang to come this time! Okay, I will give you some lesson this time! Don't always think that you are great!" Yamane Hideki thought quietly.

The birthplace of triathlons is the US military in Hawaii, so naturally it was introduced to countries with American troops stationed in Japan and South Korea earlier. In comparison, the Japanese are more able to accept American culture, while the Koreans are more exclusive, so the development of this sport in Japan is much better than in South Korea, and the Japanese team is also stronger than the Korean team.

"Gag and Smolov of Kazakhstan also participated. They should be the biggest stumbling block for our Japanese team to win the championship." The flash of cold light flashed in the eyes of Yamane Eki.

In addition to the South Korean team, the most feared coach of Yamane Eki is the Kazakhstan team.

Kazakhstan is a multi-ethnic country, and more than 20% of them are white. They used to be part of the former Soviet Union, so most of the white people are Russians, and a small number of Germanic descendants. Caucasians have an inherent advantage in triathlon, which is unmatched by the Japanese. Fortunately, Kazakhstan is not a developed country, and the training level is relatively general, so it is not an opponent of the Japanese team.

Kazakh player Gag is a descendant of the Germans, with typical white skin and yellow hair, and once won the bronze medal of the Asian Games; Smulov is a Russian. Both of them are pure white people, and the level is not much worse than the Japanese players.

Yamane Eki then looked at the list of players, such as Wei Anzu on Hong Kong Island, Liu Jianzhong in Singapore, and Virgas in the Philippines. All of them are old acquaintances for Eki Yamane.

On Hong Kong Island, Singapore and the Philippines, the triathlon level is also very good, which mainly depends on their early start. Both Singapore and the Philippines have US troops stationed, so as early as the 1980s, they participated in the triathlon. Before the return, Hong Kong Island was a British colony, so some athletes also participated in triathlons.

"I don't know who the Chinese team sent to participate this time." Yamane Eki found the Chinese team's roster, and then he saw a familiar name.

"Zhang Guan!" Yamane Hideki could not help but exclaimed. (To be continued.)
