Chapter 287 People go to high places

The car stopped slowly and Gu Zhizhong walked out of the car.

Everyone is familiar with Gu Zhizhong. He was once the world number one, and he dominated the world table tennis world for ten years. He was the first "Grand Slam" winner in the history of the national table tennis team who combines the Olympics, World Table Tennis Championships and World Cup champions. He can be said to be the first generation of table tennis idols.

People of the age of Li Dai basically grew up watching Gu Zhizhong play basketball, and those coaches who were a teenager older than Li Dai all regarded Gu Zhizhong as their idol when they were athletes.

Compared to his athletes' era, Gu Zhizhong is indeed much fatter now, and he is like a fat middle-aged man, but his champion temperament cannot be concealed by his weight of dozens of pounds.

With the appearance of Gu Zhizhong, many coaches in the welcome team showed a scorching light in their eyes. They were looking forward to their athletes being selected by Gu Zhizhong.

When the national team coach comes to inspect athletes, the process is similar. First, go to the conference room to listen to the report and the coach's introduction, and then go to the training ground to observe the training. If necessary, he will also propose to watch a certain training.

For sports such as table tennis, which have high technical requirements, the national team coach will even pick up the rackets in person and go to the table tennis table to verify the athlete's level.

However, all this has nothing to do with Li Dai. He is a physical coach. His job is to train the physical fitness of every player in the table tennis team, rather than to be responsible for a certain athlete. So after the ceremony to welcome Gu Zhizhong, Li Dai returned to his post and continued to complete the work.

...

In the training room, Li Dai was leading several young athletes who had just joined the provincial team to practice strength.

"Xiao Li! Come here!" Wang Ping's voice suddenly sounded behind Li Dai.

Li Dai turned around in surprise and saw Wang Ping coming over with a smile.

"Why is Wang Ping coming? At this time, shouldn't he be with Gu Zhizhong? Could it be that Gu Zhizhong has left? It won't be so fast, right?" Several questions flashed through Li Dai's heart.

If it is normal, it would be normal for Wang Ping to appear anywhere in the table tennis team, but today is the day when Gu Zhizhong comes to visit. As the head coach of the table tennis team, Wang Ping should be with Gu Zhizhong in an endless way, so he would not have the time to find Li Dai, a "nobody to do it".

"Coach Wang, are you asking me for something?" Li Dai asked tentatively.

"Xiao Li, come with me to the conference room. Coach Gu wants to see you." Wang Ping still looked smiling.

"Coach Gu? Is Coach Gu Zhizhong? He wants to see me?" Li Dai couldn't believe his ears.

"Yes!" Wang Ping nodded seriously.

"Coach, what's wrong with Gu Zhizhong looking for me?" Li Dai asked in a low voice.

"He didn't say it, but I thought it would be a good thing!" Wang Ping smiled even more: "Don't ask so much, you will know when you arrive. Come with me!"

Li Dai followed Wang Ping in a daze and came to the conference room, and then met the famous Gu Zhizhong.

Gu Zhizhong looked at Li Dai with curiosity, his eyes as if he had seen something new, and even made Li Dai get goosebumps.

After Li Dai sat down, Gu Zhizhong did not make any mistakes. He was a very decisive person and immediately asked straight to the point: "Coach Li, the purpose of my invitation to you is to ask you if you are interested in joining the national table tennis team?"

Li Dai looked surprised. He didn't expect that Gu Zhizhong wanted to recruit him as soon as he met.

After a while, Li Dai realized, and he instinctively said, "I am a track and field coach, I don't understand the training of table tennis!"

"Our national table tennis team does not lack professional table tennis coaches, but we lack excellent physical coaches. So I want to invite you to the national table tennis team to be our physical coach." Gu Zhizhong continued.

"Why did you choose me?" Li Dai continued to ask.

Gu Zhizhong smiled slightly: "I have read your resume. You have brought out several Asian Games champions. I just discussed it with Coach Wang Ping. I think you are very suitable for our national table tennis team to be a physical coach. So on behalf of the national table tennis team, I formally sent you an invitation, hoping that you can join."

Li Dai was still a little at a loss. This happened too suddenly, which made Li Dai's mind temporarily in a "segment" state and lost the ability to think.

Gu Zhizhong then introduced: "Table tennis is national football, so compared with other events, the General Administration of Sports has also supported our national table tennis team more effectively. Moreover, table tennis has a relatively good foundation in China and has a high participation level of the masses, so the future of table tennis is absolutely unquestionable."

"In terms of sponsorship, our table tennis event has relatively advantages. Take our national table tennis team as an example. The current major sponsors are all well-known domestic brands. In this regard, other events are far inferior to our national table tennis team."

"The benefits of our national table tennis team coach are also one of the best in all events..."

Gu Zhizhong introduced that the national table tennis team was talking about the scattered nature.

In fact, this is like a company poaching. If you want to poach talents, you must introduce the advantages of the company so that you can impress talents. If the company is useless, it has no scale, and has no development potential, talents will definitely not be willing to come.

The same is true for Gu Zhizhong, who almost treated the national table tennis team as a Fortune 500 company to introduce it.

Just talking about a company with strength, it is obvious that it cannot poach talents. The key is to give others a suitable treatment. Even if it is Microsoft or Apple, it cannot poach people without giving a suitable salary. Anyone who can be called a "talent" will never work for others in vain.

So Gu Zhizhong continued: "Coach Li, if you are willing to join our national table tennis team, we will hire you as the official coach of the national table tennis team. Like other coaches of the national table tennis team, the organizational treatment will be based on national civil servants. Your previous administrative position will not change, and you will also enjoy the treatment you should enjoy."

When Li Dai heard this, he couldn't help but shake his heart. The formal establishment of the national table tennis team is a good thing! Compared with the current provincial sports team, it is obviously a step further.

When he was in the national track and field team, Li Dai was just a seconded identity, not a formal national team coach, which was restricted in many aspects, so Li Dai also wanted to obtain the official identity of a national team. Now, the opportunity has come to Li Dai.

Gu Zhizhong continued: "Our national table tennis team, whether it is comprehensive strength or the individual ability of athletes, is the world's number one. We have the best table tennis players in the world and occupy an absolute dominant position in the world's table tennis world. I believe that in other teams, there will definitely be no so many world champions, and there will definitely not be so many world's top athletes. So for coaches, coming to the national table tennis team to train so many top table tennis players is also a challenge!"

"Li Dai, another reason why I am optimistic about you is because of your youth. Young people should be brave enough to try and face various challenges. I believe you are definitely not the kind of person who is content with the status quo! I am optimistic about your potential and recognize your ability. You should belong to a bigger stage! And our national table tennis team is just the stage to give you a show of!"

After Gu Zhizhong finished talking about the "company scale", after talking about work benefits, he began to pour "spiritual chicken soup" again.

Gu Zhizhong's level of drinking chicken soup for heart is not very high, but what he said deeply touched Li Dai.

"Gu Zhizhong is right. The Chinese national table tennis team has the world's top players, and they are the world's strongest players in both strength and talent. This means that I can gain more experience!"

Experience is what Li Dai needs, and at this time Li Dai began to calculate silently.

In terms of the comprehensive level of athletes, the national track and field team is definitely not as good as the national table tennis team. Among the national track and field team, Fang Haiquan and Yang Sijie, who are of A-level talent, are already the strongest players. In the table tennis event, Zhu Feng, who is of B+ talent, has not even been selected into the national team!

Li Dai had a premonition that in the national table tennis team, there were definitely several S-level talented players, and there would be a lot of A-level talented players, and the athletes' ability values ​​would definitely be higher. This can gain more experience for Li Dai.

Moreover, athletes of the national table tennis team have more opportunities to participate in international competitions, and as long as they participate in the competition, they can basically win the championship. This can also provide Li Dai with a lot of experience rewards.

In comparison, there are only a few people in the national track and field team who can make it on the international competition stage, and even if they participate, it is difficult to achieve results. It is difficult for Li Dai to obtain additional experience value rewards.

Obviously, according to the system settings, the higher the level of Li Dai, the more experience value you need to upgrade. If you want to upgrade as quickly as possible, Li Dai must train athletes with higher levels and better talent.

"The table tennis team, among the various training teams in China, the experience value that the Chinese table tennis team can provide me is the highest!"

Li Dai understood that his greatest reliance was the coaching system. The improvement of coaching level meant the improvement of Li Dai's ability.

"I am just a first-class coach now. As the level improves, the experience I need will definitely increase. If I continue to be in my current state, it may really take more than ten years to upgrade to another level in the future." Li Dai thought of this and took a deep breath: "I can't wait any longer!"

Next to him, Gu Zhizhong took out a business card from his arms and handed it to Li Dai: "Coach Li, I know that this matter is difficult for you to make a decision for a while. You can go back and consider it first. This is my business card. If you think it through clearly, you can call me."

Li Dai took the business card with both hands, but a solemn expression appeared on his face.

"No need to think about it, Coach Gu, I am willing to join the national table tennis team." Li Dai said.

Gu Zhizhong was slightly surprised, and then smiled.

"People are walking to a high place!" Wang Ping couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
