Chapter 549 Who is this guy? (Third update, please subscribe)
A butterfly in South America flapping its wings will cause a storm in the Pacific Ocean.
When this butterfly from Nanyang flaps its wings, what changes will it bring to the world?
No one knows yet.
But what is certain is that in some aspects, it has progressed a lot compared to history.
For example, transistors, electronic computers, intercontinental missiles... Although it is just a concept, it is ten months ahead of schedule!
This is the acceleration of global technological iterations brought about by Nanyang's research on advanced technologies or pioneering research, which is the so-called boundary effect.
This kind of acceleration is not just in one aspect, but in many aspects. Especially for some countries, they can use their own institutional advantages to accelerate. What kind of fruits such accelerated growth will eventually bear... I am afraid only God knows, and it is even beyond what people can predict.
But for the vast majority of ordinary people, all this seems to have nothing to do with them.
After all, in the development process of science and technology, it may be several years later when people finally feel the impact of inventions on their lives. People's lives are often slowly changed by inventions and creations.
In comparison, when the world is changing, people are just living ordinary lives as before.
It was February, and like many places, people began to prepare for the New Year. There were more and more customers on the streets, markets, and supermarkets, and people bought all kinds of things. Although there is no heavy snowfall during the New Year here, it does not prevent the flavor of the New Year from getting stronger day by day.
Not everyone needs to buy New Year’s goods. For people living in dormitories, celebrating the New Year seems to be a somewhat heavy topic.
I miss my loved ones even more during the festive season!
Although it was the weekend, Yang Wu, who had nothing to do, did not brag or play cards with his roommates in the dormitory, but went to Tianshui River not far from the factory.
Tianshui River is one of several rivers in Chang'an City. The lawns on both sides of the river dam are like carpets. Every weekend, Yang Wu always comes here...not for fishing, but for daze.
As usual, Yang Wu was sitting on the grass beside the dam in a daze. Opposite him was the stadium of the junior college. Even though it was a weekend, there were still members of the school sports team training.
Some of them are playing football, some are running, in short, they are doing various sports.
And Yang Wu was thinking about the problems that had been bothering him in the past six months. It was obvious that he found his current life boring.
“This strength always seems to be endless...”
Yang Wu punched the air a few times helplessly and laughed at himself.
"You are really used to being poor..."
While laughing at himself, Yang Wu thought of his past.
When he was 6 years old, he made a living selling newspapers on the street. He carried newspapers on his back and ran up and down the streets of Luhai every day. He had to run more than ten kilometers every day to sell newspapers. Regardless of wind or rain, it never stopped. Even after I went to elementary school, I would go out to sell newspapers sooner or later. When he was fourteen years old, he started pulling a rickshaw again, which he did for eight years.
In his memory, the most glorious moment was the rickshaw competition last year. He won the first place in the competition. At that time, the streets of Shanghai were packed with people, and everyone was cheering for them. While running, he pulled the rickshaw and its female passengers. Amid people's cheers, he passed one person after another and finally won the championship.
He even made it into the newspapers and from that day on people called him "Scud".
Yang Wu, holding a piece of grass in his mouth and leaning on the river dam with his head on his arms, thought about that victory, with a proud smile on his face.
At this moment, on the playground in front of him, some students were doing running training. More than a dozen students were running hard. A student in the middle suddenly surpassed the students in front, and then they were running in pursuit of each other.
Yang Wu has watched this kind of training countless times. After all, he comes here every weekend to be in a daze.
But thinking about his past, Yang Wu suddenly had an idea in his mind.
He stood up and walked towards the playground. When he saw several students moving their bodies at the starting point, Yang Wu also followed him to one of the tracks. The students wearing vests and shorts glanced at He didn't speak.
"Get ready..."
As the coach shouted, there was a "bang" gunshot, and in an instant, five members of the school's long-distance running team rushed out, their movements not very standardized. Yang Wu also ran forward.
No one thinks there is anything strange about this.
After all, when they train, someone will always follow them. It's not a big deal. Soon, such citizens will be left behind. However, what happened next was an unforgettable scene for the school's sports team members and even the coaches.
At the beginning, Yang Wu, who started slowly, seemed to be lagging far behind, but after he accelerated slightly, he only took a few dozen meters to be level with those guys. Just when he was level with them, he suddenly accelerated and galloped away, and he was far ahead from the beginning.
Then another shocking scene happened. Behind them, eight members of the school's long-distance running team wearing vests, shorts, spikes and running as fast as they could. A guy in front wearing a casual T-shirt, shorts, and even rubber sandals, After running around for a while, he was at least ten meters away from them.
After being surpassed by others, the leading team member was naturally very unconvinced. He even forgot that he should save his body and speeded up his pace. Then several other guys also speeded up.
But that guy was also accelerating, and he was nearly 100 meters behind them in the second lap. The team leader, who had always been very confident in his own speed, was already too tired to run on the third lap. In the end, he just stared at Yang Wu, who was still running, and asked in shock:
" Who the hell is this kid? How can he run away?"
The coaches on the sidelines obviously noticed this guy who could run very well. Only one or two people noticed him at first, but after he ran ten laps, all the coaches gathered together and started talking about it. I asked him who he was and what he majored in.
As for the coach of the long-distance running team, he stared at this guy as if he was seeing a treasure.
Ten laps, twenty laps...
Although Yang Wu's speed was neither fast nor slow, when he ran thirty laps, all the coaches were silent. They knew... …This guy is an absolute genius.
"Bah..." Suddenly Yang Wu, who had been running non-stop, stopped. He looked at the rubber sandals on his feet - the uppers were broken.
"Why didn't that guy stop running?"
"How many laps is this?"
"It seems to be twenty-seven laps..."
The coach who ran over looked at Yang Wu in amazement, who was holding his sandals in a daze in the distance. Then he walked quickly to Yang Wu with a smile on his face and looked at him like a hungry tiger seeing the food put into his mouth. Like a big fat sheep, he asked in blunt Chinese:
"Hey, are you a student of this school?"
Yang Wu looked at the foreigners with few hair in front of him, and always felt that the other person's eyes were a little strange.
He shook his head and replied.
"No, I'm not."
"Then which school are you from?"
The coach frowned. If they are from other schools, then they will definitely meet in this year's league. In other words, this guy is his direct competitor.
“No, I work on a nearby construction site, a worker from my construction company.”
A worker from a construction company?
It doesn't matter, Coach Hull said.
"Young man, how about coming here to study? It doesn't matter, as long as you come here to study, I promise to let you participate in this year's University Games, and you will become the best long-distance runner in Nanyang. Under my training Next, you may even have a chance to win the championship, and maybe you will become an athlete and represent Nanyang in the Olympics.”
Olympic Games?
What kind of meeting is this?
Do you have to pay?
Although I don’t know what the Olympics are. But he still understood what the other party was saying.
Reading?
Here?
Yang Wu couldn't help but feel a little dizzy, and quickly waved his hand and said.
"Sir, I, I only went to elementary school..."
Looking at this school, Yang Wu wondered, can I go to such a school?
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter..."
Hull shook his head repeatedly, then grabbed the assistant coach:
"Xu, have you seen him? I don't care what method you use, help this kid complete the admission procedures within an hour. I'm not kidding, at most One hour, otherwise you just have to pack up and leave!”
The newly graduated assistant coach looked at the a little excited coach, then turned to look at the dark-skinned Yang Wu, and couldn’t help but mutter in his heart,< br>
Only went to elementary school?
Is this possible?
You can go to university here.
But Hel didn't care so much, but looked at Yang Wu with a treasure-promoting expression and said.
"Look, what do you think, come to our school!"
Hell stared at the young man in front of him who had not yet recovered and said.
"Young man, you have no idea how talented you are. As long as you have a suitable coach, like me, you will definitely become a champion. I am talking about whether it is a national champion or even a world champion. , all over the world, when the time comes, the whole world will cheer for you”
For Hull, who is a long-distance running coach, he is excited now. After all, he has discovered a good prospect. If he trains well, he may really become a world champion in the future!
As a coach, who doesn’t want to train a champion?
"What? World champion?"
Yang Wu's mind once again flashed to the cheers of people when he won the rickshaw race. Wasn't that also a championship?
Can you also be a champion in running?
In the eyes of the other party full of expectation, Yang Wu said:
"I, can I really do it?"
"Believe me!"
Hull Said somewhat excitedly.
“You will never regret it!”
However, Yang Wu finally asked the most important question - can you eat while running?
