They promised to win the swimming championship, but what's with this "Grand Slam" thi

Chapter 49 Returning home in wealth and honor is like wearing brocade in the dark! [Bonus Chapter]

The next morning, after warming up at the training ground, Wu Jin casually tested her butterfly and freestyle strokes.

The butterfly stroke got 0.04 seconds faster, but the 50m freestyle was a bit slower, so I swam a time of 22.40 seconds.

This is actually quite normal. You can't swim your best every time. A fluctuation of 0.1 to 0.2 seconds is within the normal range. Wu Jin's less than 0.1 seconds is actually quite stable.

Yesterday was really due to my state of mind and overall high energy.

Wu Jin, of course, didn't take these fluctuations to heart.

Sun Yang, who was standing nearby, had obviously heard about Wu Jin's Asian record in the 50-meter freestyle yesterday, and he was feeling quite bad. However, he had already adjusted his mindset and accepted Wu Jin's prowess, so he wasn't so upset.

Zhang Lin is his future rival.

"Okay, everyone stop for a moment!"

Zhang Yadong suddenly walked in with a folder in his hand.

Everyone walked in his direction.

He usually takes this thing when he has something to announce, something that the entire provincial team is already very aware of.

We've encountered each other a few times in previous championship matches.

Old Zhang wasn't one to waste time talking nonsense. His only hobby was strolling around the pool like an old man, his hands tied behind his back, checking everyone's performance and training progress.

"The spots for the national team have been decided!"

"I hereby announce!"

Zhang Yadong opened the folder in his hand, inside which was an official document with an official header.

The National Swimming Center just sent an email to all provincial teams.

Upon hearing this, some people immediately perked up, while others shook their heads slightly. Sun Yang stood aside, looking both envious and jealous.

Because he knew that his best friend Wu Jin was already a confirmed choice.

"The men are Yu Cheng, Wu Peng, Wang Haibo, Cai Li, Zheng Kunliang, and... Wu Jin!"

Zhang Yadong glanced at Wu Jin beside him, and then continued, "Women: Luo Xuejuan, Chen Hua, Tang Jingzhi, Yang Yu!"

"Those who have registered, please tell your families that you will need to train for the next three months or so until the World Championships!"

"That means there's no rest time!"

"Everyone else, work hard and try to win the Olympic medal in next year's selection competition!"

"it is good!"

Countless people responded, and Zhang Yadong waved his hand, announcing the disbandment.

"Oh, right, Wu Jin, come here for a second!"

Zhang Yadong waved to Wu Jin, and Wu Jin walked to Zhang Yadong's side.

"When are you going to call your parents over?"

Zhang Yadong spoke casually, but Wu Jin's heart skipped a beat.

coming!

Are we going to sign a contract of servitude?!
But he said aloud, "What's wrong, Zhang Zhi?"

"It's nothing, don't be nervous. It's not that you did a bad job, hahaha!"

"We need to sign some contracts, and your parents will have to!"

"Oh well!"

Wu Jin readily agreed, but she would definitely need to think about it carefully.

It would be good to take a look at the relevant contracts first, as I wonder what the income distribution of athletes is like nowadays.

He knew some things about later generations, and actually, relatively speaking, it was still acceptable for non-top athletes.

The head, that is, the object of exploitation.

Almost everyone who has won an Olympic gold medal has had a less than pleasant experience with the General Administration of Sport, which eventually leads to "friendly negotiations" or... a ban.

The diving prince and Yao Ming are two stark examples of positive and negative contrasts.

Wu Jin trained according to the improvement plan formulated by Xu Guoyi. Around 11 o'clock, it was time to rest and relax before having lunch and a nap.

Continue at 2:30 PM.

That's roughly how the provincial team's training schedule is.

Wu Jin took a shower and changed her clothes before returning to her dorm and taking out her phone.

His mother knows the provincial team's training schedule, so she won't call him unless it's something important, and she'll only call him after he's finished training.

Xu Wanqin was clearly surprised by Wu Jin's call: "Son, what's wrong?"

"Mom, about what I told you last time, it's time to sign the contract!"

Wu Jin had warned Xu Wanqin, and Xu Wanqin immediately asked, "Sign now?"

"Okay, you can come today, but don't rush to sign. Just say you'll take it back for a look!"

Will they agree?

Xu Wanqin didn't know why her son knew these things.

However, she did consult her sister, and it's true that athletes often have commercial disputes, so Wu Jin's statement wasn't wrong. Perhaps some of the athletes on his team told him about this.

"Never mind whether you agree or not, if it doesn't work out, call your aunt and uncle, and I'll talk to them about it!"

"Alright, then it'll have to be tomorrow!"

"I'll call and ask if they have time!"

Xu Wanqin was talking there.

"Okay, just confirm your arrival time!"

"Okay, I'll text you once I'm sure!"

Xu Wanqin felt that her son had matured more and more. The provincial team was indeed a good training ground. Winning the championship was like growing up, which made Xu Wanqin feel quite uncomfortable.

"Oh, by the way, son, I went to your school this morning. Guess what the principal wanted to talk to you about?"

Xu Wanqin was smiling there.

Wu Jin was about to hang up when she heard this and was taken aback: "Looking for me?"

"Yes, haha, my son won the championship! Not only are there congratulatory notices posted in the school's display windows, but there are also big banners!"

"At that moment, I even considered borrowing a camera to take the photos!"

Xu Wanqin was overjoyed when she said this.

Wu Jin could picture that scene.

It's a national competition, after all, and it's elementary school students competing against adults. For an elementary school that isn't very well-known in Hangzhou, this is definitely a big deal.

"The principal insisted on refunding all my tuition fees, and when I said it was okay, he kept stuffing them into my bag!"

"We just want you to come to the school!"

"They said the school is having a sports meet next month and they hope you'll participate!"

Wu Jin: "..."

Isn't that ridiculous?
"Then what did you say?"

“I told you that since you’ve joined the national team, you might not have time to participate; you need to train for the World Swimming Championships in Barcelona in July, so you’ll need to take some time off!”

"Upon hearing this, the principal immediately said that the competition was the most important thing, and that you should give it your best performance!"

"You didn't see his expression when he heard the news!"

"I'm absolutely shocked!"

Haha, how could I not be shocked?

Students from our own school are participating in the World Championships, which are some of the most prestigious and prestigious competitions in the world.

Let alone primary schools, even university presidents have to give the green light all the way!

This primary school is just benefiting from the situation.

The school is now proud of Wu Jin, and it didn't cost them a penny. The key is that Wu Jin's family still has to pay a tuition fee every semester, and it would be a real pain to keep this money if he didn't return it.

If Wu Jin becomes famous one day and brings up this matter, the principal will definitely have to kneel down.

However, Wu Jin still had to admit that her mother's skills in showing off were now truly masterful.

He even blurted out the name "Barcelona World Swimming Championships".

My mother has indeed risen in status because of her son.

They have the confidence to show off.

"Now your school principal wants you to come to the school and set a good example for your classmates and younger students!"

"And you'll give a speech as well?"

"That would be even better!"

Xu Wanqin immediately smiled and said, "Your dad's school wants you to go there!"

"They know you won the championship!"

"Let's talk about it after the World Championships!"

"Your son definitely needs to focus all his attention on preparing for the World Championships right now!"

Of course, Wu Jin was clearly not averse to doing this kind of thing at all.

Returning home in glory is like wearing fine clothes at night; bringing honor to one's ancestors is something worth doing.

"Yes, that's what I told your dad and the principal too!"

"Okay, then call your aunt!"

"Okay, I'll come right away!"

Xu Wanqin hung up the phone after saying that.

Looking at her phone, Wu Jin felt that this agreement wouldn't be so easy to sign!
We have to take it one step at a time, proceeding gradually!
