Chapter 406 Urine Test
Yutung International Sports Center can accommodate 32000 people, and it was already full before eight o'clock.

From the entrance of the stadium to the parking lot, there were large numbers of Chinese and foreign reporters inside and outside the stadium, all waiting to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.

After celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival last night, he only accepted interviews from CCTV. So far, he has not accepted interviews from other media.

When these media reporters saw him, they immediately rushed forward, the sound of clicking was endless, and the flash lights were flashing everywhere.

Li Hong and Yang Jian followed He Zhongqiu, with CCTV photographers filming in the front and his track and field team following behind. The group, armed with cameras and protected by dozens of security personnel, headed towards the lounge.

"Wolverine, what result are you going to get in the long jump?"

“Hopefully it won’t be lower than 8.59 metres.”

"Oh, I remember that was the result of the long jump champion in the Athens Olympics."

"You remembered correctly."

"Wolverine, what's your best training result for the 100-meter meter right now?"

"That's not important. What's important is what result I can achieve today."

The media kept throwing various questions at him, and he dealt with them casually.

As we walked forward, more and more reporters came and the corridor was packed with reporters, half of whom were foreign reporters.

Li Hong wiped the sweat from her forehead with the back of her hand. As the face of CCTV-4, she had never experienced the feeling of being surrounded by so many reporters.

Slowly, she shrank behind He Zhongqiu. There was a big mountain in front of her, so this was the safest position.

"What happened?"

In some lounges along the way, coaches and athletes inside heard the noise outside, opened the door and looked out, wow, they were all reporters.

When Su Bangtian opened the door and looked, he was shocked and exclaimed: "If you don't know, you would think Wolverine is coming."

But when he looked carefully and saw He Zhongqiu, who was much taller than him, he rubbed his eyes and shouted loudly: "Oh my god, come and see, Wolverine is coming."

He Zhongqiu turned around and looked in the direction of Su Bangtian, but was blocked by someone and didn't see anyone.

Big names are different. The organizing committee specially arranged a lounge for He Zhongqiu.

Next to He Zhongqiu's lounge is the lounge for athletes from Yanjing City and Tianjing City, where more than 40 people are crowded together.

There were more than 12 participants in this championship, roughly half men and half women. There were lounges in the stadium, and the other athletes were squeezed together from several provinces.

There were a few people outside the lounge, they were the head of the Yanjing Sports Bureau and several coaches of the track and field team. They were all planning to follow He Zhongqiu for the next few days.

Seeing the reporters rushing in like a mudslide, several people from the Yanjing Sports Bureau immediately broke out in sweat as they had never seen such a scene before.

He Zhongqiu finally arrived at the lounge, greeted the leaders and coaches of the Municipal Sports Bureau, closed the door, and the world suddenly felt relaxed.

"call!"

Li Hong let out a long sigh, fanning herself with her hands and sighing, "This is the first time I've seen so many reporters, and half of them are foreigners."

Yang Jian found it funny and said, "You are the most beautiful host of CCTV. Have you never seen such a scene?"

"I've never seen it before." Li Hong said with a smile.

Then she added, "I heard yesterday that track and field competitions in China are always held at a loss, but this time it made money."

Yang Jian smiled and said, "It's a big profit. Not counting the ticket sales, the TV broadcasting rights fees from the hundreds of TV stations alone are a lot of money."

He Zhongqiu began to change his clothes, saying, "This is my first track and field competition, and everyone is just looking for something new."

Li Hong squatted beside him and said, "Zhongqiu, tell me the truth, can you run 977 in the Olympics next year?"

When Yang Jian and the three CCTV photographers heard this, they pricked up their ears and aimed their cameras at He Zhongqiu and Li Hong.

He Zhongqiu joked, "Li Hong, you're only interviewing me this once, why are you asking about next year right away?"

Li Hong said with a smile: "No, I will play with you in the next four games in September. If the results are good, maybe I will play with you in the Olympics next year."

He Zhongqiu was startled and asked in surprise: "No, are you planning to change the channel?"

"No, I hold the position concurrently. The main reason is that the sports department doesn't have the right people, and it's a bit late even if we recruit now." Li Hong explained with a smile.

"Oh."

He Zhongqiu nodded, returned to Li Hong's question, and said, "Let me tell you this, in the Yanjing Olympics, 9.77 in the meters should not be a problem."

"Wow!"

"Great!"

Li Hong and others said happily.

He Zhongqiu has his own track and field team with him, but national track and field team head coach Feng Shuyong will be with him throughout the championship.

When Feng Shuyong heard this, he was so excited that his teeth were chattering and his eyes were red. He felt that the spring of Chinese track and field had arrived.

As for those in the city, they are even more excited.

Especially for the top leader, if He Zhongqiu can run a score of 9.77, equaling the score of the -meter champion in the last Olympic Games, he may be able to be promoted to the next level.

He Zhongqiu opened the series and took a look while changing his clothes.

At the end of April, his 100-meter level rose to 86. After that, due to the playoffs, he reduced his sprint training and only resumed part of his training in July. In the past month and a half, there has been little improvement. Now he is at 88, close to the first-class level.

200和400米分别是86和84级，跳远和三级跳分别是90和78级，跳远的等级超过了百米，也是五个项目中唯一一个达到一流水准的。

When I was at level 86, my long jump result had reached 8.7 meters. After being promoted to level 90, my current result has reached 8.9 meters. If I am in good shape and perform well, I can challenge the world record of 8.95 meters.

Of course, he has never jumped over 8.95 meters in training, but he is a competitive athlete, and it is normal that his training state is not as excited as his competition state.

He felt that when his long jump level was raised to 95 and his skills reached the world's top level, he would be able to set a world record that would be difficult for others to break in the next ten, twenty or thirty years, and only he could break it.

Seeing that He Zhongqiu had finished changing clothes, Feng Shuyong said: "Zhongqiu, the first event in the morning is the long jump, followed by the 400-meter preliminaries, and the 100-meter preliminaries in the evening.

There are three groups of 400 people in the 20m race, and you are in the first group. There are three groups of 100 people in the 19m race, and you are in the second group. There are 16 people in the long jump, and the top eight will advance to the finals. The sprint is the same as the long jump, and the results will not be carried forward to the finals. "

"Will the long jump final also have three jumps?" He Zhongqiu asked.

"Yes, this time the competition will be conducted according to Olympic rules," said Feng Shuyong.

"okay, I get it."

He Zhongqiu nodded. Today's long jump was the preliminary and final rounds, which meant that the preliminary and final rounds were held together.

Feng Shuyong added: "With your training results, you have no rivals in the four events you participated in in China. The gap with your results is too big, so you don't need to be nervous. If you perform normally, you can win the championship in all four events."

"Take the 100m for example. The best two athletes in China, Zhang Peimeng and Wen Yongyi, have recently achieved best times of over 10.40 seconds, which is far from the Olympic B standard of 10.28 seconds."

"no problem."

He Zhongqiu changed into his competition uniform in the lounge, his competition number was 0001.

The National Track and Field Championships are conducted through provincial team registration. Yanjing City is numbered 0001 to 0100, and he is the first one.

He suddenly remembered something and asked, "Director Feng, for competitions like this where the results are recognized by the IAAF, there are urine tests, right?"

Feng Shuyong nodded and said, "Yes, the World Athletics Federation conducts strict inspections, and conducts random inspections around the world from time to time, before and during competitions. And there are not only urine tests, but also blood tests.

Three urine test officers are now in the waiting room, and more than 20 athletes have been tested."

He Zhongqiu nodded. The NBA also has urine tests, but they are very lax and just a formality. They are mainly used to check for drug use. Stimulants have no effect on basketball.

The reporters outside had already started to be cleared away. After all the reporters had left, a staff member from the organizing committee came running over in a hurry.

Speak of the devil, and he will appear. This staff member is here to inform He Zhongqiu that he has been selected and needs to take a urine test.

He immediately followed the staff out of the lounge. There were many athletes in the corridor outside. When they saw him, some of them immediately ran up to him. "Hello, everyone!"

He greeted with a smile, unable to move an inch.

"Clap clap clap..."

"Wolverine!"

"Kung Fu King!"

There was warm applause and cheers in the corridor.

Feng Shuyong, who followed behind, shouted quickly, "Alright, alright, let's go, everyone stop crowding around, go out and take the time to warm up."

"Wow, Wolverine is so tall!"

"With such a high altitude, he can run 10 meters in less than seconds. It's amazing!"

"I heard that his strongest skill is long jump, and he can break the world record."

"too strong!"

"I heard that he beat the foreign boxers so badly that no one dared to fight him."

"That's right. In the end, he had no choice but to give up his world boxing title."

"Don't you have the title of Super World Boxing Champion?"

The crowd then dispersed, and as they walked out, they looked back at He Zhongqiu from time to time and talked a lot.

He Zhongqiu came to the waiting room, handed in his entry certificate, and then signed the entry and exit control form before entering.

There were three urine test officers inside, two white and one black. One of the white ones was the main urine test officer. Even when facing a super star like He Zhongqiu, he had a blank expression on his face.

Another white urine test officer took out three cups and said, "Mr. He Zhongqiu, these are sample cups. Please choose one."

"That's it."

He Zhongqiu took a look and saw that they were all sealed. He picked one at random and walked towards the bathroom.

The black man was the urine test officer, and he followed him in immediately.

The urine test officer cannot be avoided during the urination process. The urine test officer will first check the pants and tops for a 360-degree inspection.

He Zhongqiu pulled down his pants in front of the urine test officer, tore open the seal of the sample cup, and prepared to drain the water.

When the urine test officer saw the big bird, his eyes twitched and he felt a sense of inferiority in his heart.

He quickly reminded: "Wolverine, you need to provide at least 90ml of urine."

"I'm holding my urine. I'll give you 500ml," said He Zhongqiu.

The urine test officer's face twitched again. I'm not thirsty, why do I need so much?
He Zhongqiu filled the sample cup directly and then left it there for a long time.

Back in the waiting room, He Zhongqiu placed the sample cup on the operating table under the watchful eyes of the three urine test officers.

The chief inspector took out three sets of sample bottles and motioned He Zhongqiu to choose one. He picked one at random, and after opening the seal, there were two bottles, the so-called Bottle A and Bottle B.

The chief urine test officer then said: "Mr. He Zhongqiu, you need to confirm that the five numbers on the bottle cap match those on the bottle.

And check that the bottle is clean and intact before unpacking it.”

He Zhongqiu nodded, compared them and found them to be good.

After this set of procedures, He Zhongqiu personally poured the urine into bottles AB. The two bottles were sealed, put back into the packaging box, and then placed in a safe.

Finally, He Zhongqiu answered some questions from the urine test officer, signed, and received a reply slip that he had to keep for three months.

When he left the waiting room, he signed the entry and exit control form, got his entry certificate back, and ended the random inspection.

When they returned to the lounge, it was almost time, so He Zhongqiu put on his long jump spikes and went out.

The auditorium with 32,000 seats was already packed. At least 70% of the people, if not all of them, were there to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Both sides of the exit passage, extending all the way to the stadium, are filled with media reporters, with cameras and long guns everywhere.

At this time, He Zhongqiu appeared at the exit.

"Wolverine!"

"Wolverine is here!"

"Wow!"

There are stands on both sides of the exit passage. When the audience from the second floor to the first floor saw He Zhongqiu, they immediately shouted and yelled excitedly.

"Crack, click, click..."

The media reporters' flashes began to flash and the shutter sounds continued.

"Mid-Autumn Festival." A familiar voice shouted.

He Zhongqiu looked over and saw that Zhang Heli, Yu Jia, and a large group of people, all Chinese reporters who had interviewed him in the United States, were here.

"Hey, Mr. Zhang, when did you come here?"

"I just came here from Yanjing with a few of them. They arrived yesterday."

He went over to say hello, then strode out, waving to the audience in the stands with a smile on his face.

Going out of the exit is the starting point of the 100-meter track, and across the track is the sand pit for long jump.

Before warming up, He Zhongqiu went to draw lots for the 400m and long jump.

CCTV's live broadcast began. The photographer pointed the camera at He Zhongqiu, and Li Hong took the microphone and said a few words from time to time, introducing some information about He Zhongqiu.

In Shanghai, Liu Xiang was resting at home.

I'm about to go to Osaka to participate in the World Athletics Championships. These two days are a rare rest time, and I will start pre-match training the day after tomorrow.

When he saw Li Hong, he couldn't help but think of the CCTV and the winter day when they interviewed him. After comparing them, he couldn't help but complain:

"Alas, this treatment, CCTV is too partial, why not send Li Sisi and the others to cover the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

In Yanjing, Dong Ri was also watching the game and suddenly sneezed.

"Hello."

"Hello to you, Wolverine."

“Wow, that’s high!”

"Wolverine, can you really break the world record?"

"Not necessarily. It depends on the performance. It hasn't jumped out in training yet."

"Come on! If you can break the world record, that will be awesome!"

He Zhongqiu drew number 6, and then came to the sand pit, greeted the other 15 long jump athletes, chatted with them and warmed up.

Hundreds of reporters also followed him here. There were only 16 athletes participating in the long jump, and the reporters formed a sea of ​​people, completely drowning them.

"Keep a good attitude and don't be influenced by media reporters."

He Zhongqiu saw that the athletes were obviously affected by the reporters and shouted quickly.

But it was obvious that those athletes had never seen such a scene before. Some of them were confused and had a great impact on them.
