God of Sprint

Chapter 4 No need to compare, I am alone

When it came to the track and field assessment, Zhang Tieshan called Zhao Yun, who was doing stretching exercises, over to meet Sun Zhu.

"Hello principal!"

"Zhao Yun, this is Teacher Sun. When you go to No. 17 Middle School, you must pay a good visit to Teacher Sun."

Zhang Tieshan had already stuffed Zhao Yun into No. 17 Middle School before the assessment. He was trying to shut up Sun Zhu. Who made Sun Zhu look so righteous just now that he wanted to contribute to the rural mountainous areas? He had to find a way to accept Zhao Yun.

Sun Zhu was still smiling at first, but his face fell instantly when he heard the second half of the sentence. He looked at Old Zhang helplessly.

"Okay, Principal, hello, Teacher Sun. I will work hard to get into No. 17 Middle School." Zhao Yun quickly greeted Sun Zhu.

"Zhao Yun, right? Do you know what our standards are for this exam? You are competing in the 100-meter event, right? When I called your class teacher, he told me your requirements. He said you can run in 12 seconds. But this result does not meet our admission standards this year. There are too many good talents this year. This year, a student named Zhang Xiang from Lianhua District ran the 10.8 meters in 11.8 seconds. He was sure to enter the provincial sports school, but he didn't want to fall behind in grades, so he chose our school. He has been admitted as an exception, and will directly enter No. Middle School next year. This year, our admission standard is seconds. You still have to work hard."

When Zhao Yun heard 10.8 seconds, he was stunned. So awesome? This was the standard of a national first-class athlete. And he had the same idea as himself, not wanting to give up his academic studies.

I turned around and thought, who cares who he is? The results of competitive sports speak for themselves. There is no need to compare. I am the best in the world. I can't lose my mentality.

If you are afraid, you are not worthy of climbing to the top. Every king is lonely.

"Don't worry, Mr. Sun. I will be admitted to No. 17 Middle School based on my real abilities. And I will surpass Zhang Xiang in the future."

"Good, you have ambition. Boy, you must bring honor to our school and not let others look down on you." Zhang Tieshan said.

Old Sun was so angry that he was grumbling. He thought to himself, Old Zhang, are you sick? Why do you always stab me in the back?

"Well, good. Perform well. Go and prepare for the test." Old Sun turned to look at Zhao Yun and said with a smile.

"Okay, Mr. Sun, Principal. I'll go get ready." After saying that, he looked at Sun Zhu and Old Zhang, and they both nodded. He bowed, took a step back, and then turned and walked towards the examination venue.

Neither humble nor arrogant, but gentle and polite. This was Sun Zhu's first impression of Zhao Yun. He took a closer look at the young man's face and found him quite handsome.

Zhao Yun was the only one running in the 100-meter event. Others were too far from the 12-second mark, so they didn't take the test.

As the whistle blew, Zhao Yun shot towards the finish line like a sharp arrow. He finished in a few blinks. He was done. It was so exciting, such a project that made hormones and adrenaline surge.

Finished in 11.4 seconds.

Sun Zhu looked at the result on the stopwatch with a shocked look on his face. He thought Zhao Yun's result was only 12 seconds, and if he didn't perform well, it might be around 12.5 to 11.5 seconds. If this result was not outstanding among athletes, it would not be considered outstanding. Unexpectedly, it was within seconds. This made the future full of imagination.

Sun Zhu turned to look at Zhao Yun who was doing some exercises to relieve muscle soreness. He thought he had found a treasure.

This is the result achieved without any opponent. If there was a competitor running at the same pace as Zhao Yun, I believe Zhao Yun would have performed even better.

Sun Zhu walked over, held Zhang Tieshan's hands with both hands and said, "Thank you, Principal Zhang, thank you for training talented people who can achieve results for No. 17 Middle School."

Zhang Tieshan suddenly felt a little regretful after seeing the results. Then he scratched his head in anger after hearing Sun Zhu's retort. Then he adjusted his large-lensed reading glasses and said solemnly:

"Zhao Yun is a talent, but even if he is a talent, I did not train him for you. I trained him for the country and for this land.

As educators, we should not limit our vision to our own small garden.

Set up the heart for the heaven and the earth, set the destiny for the livelihood and the people, for the sacred and inherited knowledge, and for the peace of the world.

What we have done is far behind what our predecessors have done!"

After saying this, he looked disappointed with himself.

Go ahead and talk, but don't compete with me. Your words will never stand up to scrutiny in my eyes, Zhang Tiecheng thought.

Sun Zhu was stunned and embarrassed after hearing this. Then his expression changed instantly.

"One word from you is worth ten years of study! I benefited a lot from listening to Principal Zhang's words. I will take Principal Zhang's actions as a benchmark and move forward courageously. And when we have a meeting later, I will tell other teachers what Principal Zhang said so that they can also learn from it."

I'll let you show off, I'll set you up first. Let's see what you'll do in the future. Don't you like to brag? Don't do one thing wrong, or your image will collapse. Don't you want to be a saint?

I! Ni! Ma!

After hearing Sun Zhu's words, Zhang Tieshan immediately wanted to say this.

Zhang Tieshan smiled and said, "No need. I, an old man, will not seek fame and reputation any more. It is time for you young people to make way. It will save me from being annoying. Young people have their own way of living. Students, go back to class!"

Zhang Tieshan turned around and directed the students to go to class. Zhao Yun also followed him to the class.

He was asked to say both good and bad things.

I saw that all the students had left.

"Let's go, Teacher Sun, Teacher Wang. Come to my office and drink some water to moisten your throat." Zhang Tieshan said to Sun Zhu and Wang Xin.

In fact, he still didn't give up and was thinking of trying to persuade them in the office to see if he could hire another person.

"Thank you, Principal Zhang." Wang Xin said with a smile.

The three of them walked slowly to the principal's office. Old Zhang made a cup of tea for each of them. He poured himself a cup and watched them both drink.

Zhang Tieshan smiled kindly and said to Sun Zhu, "This tea belongs to the home of my boss who is the head of the Education Bureau. I went to his home and snatched it away during the Chinese New Year. He has been mad at me for a long time just for this." After saying that, he turned to look at Wang Xin with a smile.

After hearing what Old Zhang said, Old Sun thought to himself, "As soon as you stick your butt out, I know what kind of shit you are going to poop. Your tricks may work on young people, but you can't trick me."

Old Sun replied with a smile: "Really? Then I have to find a chance to meet your boss and thank him in person for this good tea. This tea is really good, refreshing and fragrant."

Don't you want to take credit? I'll transfer your credit to others.

"How could he care about you? He is always thinking about how to get more children from the mountainous areas to enter good schools. Every time he sees the children in the mountains, he can't sleep at night and is exhausted. If you want to thank him, just help him share some of the pressure."

After hearing the answer, Old Zhang picked up the cup, blew away the hot steam, took a sip, and then spit the tea leaves in his mouth onto the ground, speaking slowly.

"It's within my ability. I can only say it's within my ability. My ability is far inferior to that of Principal Sun and the leaders. It's hard for both of you to do it, let alone us. What do you think, Mr. Wang?"

Wang Xin was in his own world when he was suddenly pointed out by Lao Sun. He said with a smile on his face: "Yes, your ability is too low."

The two old foxes exchanged witty remarks and chatted for a while, but Old Zhang didn't get any advantage.

After talking for a while, Lao Sun said, "I have to go now. Your car only runs once. If you are late, it will be gone."

Lao Zhang said, "I wanted to keep you for lunch. I'll treat you two well. I didn't treat you well in the morning."

"Maybe next time. We still have to rush to Yude Middle School this time."

As he said that, he walked out. After Old Zhang sent the two of them out, he came back and got angrier and angrier. He paced around the room, muttering to himself, "You wasted good tea leaves and didn't get any benefit. Next time I'll let you drink tap water. It has to be cold! The best one is the one you have diarrhea."

Zhao Yun was so excited when he returned to the classroom. He knew that he would be fine. Now he just needed to catch up with his academic performance. After all, the academic performance of the students in the 17th Middle School was not too low.

During this period, we must not fall behind in training plan, nor in academic studies. Zhao Yun's academic performance has actually declined recently. The total score of the last exam at the end of the month was 760 points. He scored 420 points, and his ranking in the class dropped to 480th. After all, he had not studied for a month, and he has been training a lot recently. His energy is a bit out of sync. If he wants to be admitted to No. Middle School, he has to work hard. Last year, the academic performance of the sports students in No. Middle School was points.

Next March, the county will select sports students. Those who are good at sports can enter the county's No. 420 Middle School. Sports students in the county's No. Middle School also need to have good academic scores. They are just slightly lower. Sports students with points will have no problem getting into the county's No. Middle School.

The remaining students who failed the exams for academic subjects either took the exams for vocational education centers or dropped out. Most of the girls who dropped out helped their families with farm work, and after a few years, they were introduced to a partner and got married and had children. Then the children started the vicious cycle again. There was no way out of this cycle.

Some boys find work on construction sites, while others stay at home doing farm work. That's basically how life goes.

If you want to change this area, you have to change this group of people. It is always the majority of people who are changed! Otherwise, the gap between the rich and the poor will become wider and wider.

To conquer the world, one must be as bold as a tiger; to rule the world, one must have the people in mind.

In Zhao Yun's mind, Mr. Mao is the most capable person in conquering and ruling the world.

Zhao Yun particularly likes Mr. Mao and his poems. The earliest reason was because there were many large calendars with Mr. Mao's poems on the wall of his deceased grandfather's house. Later, after slowly understanding some of the meanings, he became even more respectful and couldn't help himself. He especially liked the two poems before he left the mountains.

There is a saying that goes, why bury your bones in your hometown? There are green mountains everywhere in life.

Another saying: If I don't open my mouth first in spring, no bird will dare to make a sound.

"Although I am far inferior to Mr. Mao, I am standing on the shoulders of giants. I must do something to bring change to this region." Zhao Yun thought to himself.

"I love this mountain and the people here. Love will change it and make it more lovable. The road is difficult, but I will face it head-on."

study hard, improve every day.
