Mr. Yang introduced that his database was prepared according to the standard of the previous players, and Yan Yang did not meet this standard. Yan Yang refuted that the ice is skating, not calculated, the potential of world champions and people is not calculated, and one cannot obliterate his own efforts with a piece of data. He turned to Coach Chen's opinion, and Chen Jin agreed in principle. She has worked with Teacher Yang for many years, and his analysis has never been wrong, but he also agreed with Yan Yang's point of view that a person's potential cannot be calculated with formulas. It was decided that Yan Yang would first train with everyone in the team, and the results of this data analysis would be discussed later.
Before training the next day, Chen Jin showed the players videos of athletes who fell in major international competitions in the past two decades, including herself. Chen Jin told everyone: For an athlete, between falling and getting up is a champion. A high-level competition is more about technique, and who has fewer mistakes. The best way to reduce mistakes is to lay a solid foundation. She announced that from now on, the basic training will be doubled, and the ice training will be halved. The basic movements are required to become their muscle memory and subconsciousness, and the elimination mechanism is continued, so that it becomes their habit to maintain a high competitive state at all times. Tang Han expressed everyone's concerns: if you double the basic training, your body will be overwhelmed, and if you halve the ice training, the ice feeling will decrease. Chen Jin spoke out the problems of each of the team members Tang Han, Dong Sanjing, Hao Han, and Tian Miao one by one, and pointed out that the further they went back, the more effort they would have to put in ten times more than the past if they wanted to improve every 0.1 seconds. They are worried because it is the decision of the coaching staff, whoever disobeys can leave at any time. After the meeting, Chen Jin informed Yan Yang that he would not do ice training, but only do Lu training. The training plan will be given to him as an assistant tomorrow. Returning to the dormitory in the evening, Jia Changan felt that Coach Chen was targeting Yan Yang, but Tang Han believed that targeting was better than ignoring.
The high-intensity training made Tang Han's body a little overwhelmed, so he secretly put plaster in the locker room to relieve the pain. After a while, Yan Yang found Coach Chen and asked about the time to get on the ice. Chen Jin asked him to get on the ice on Monday. Yan Yang received new skates and a note of encouragement from his uncle. He secretly made up his mind to live up to the expectations of his uncle and his family, and he would definitely become their pride.
Before training on Monday, Chen Jin announced that starting from this week, Yan Yang will join the ice training, mainly responsible for Jin Ying's sparring. Yan Yang is dissatisfied with why he has become a sparring coach after resuming on the ice? Chen Jin told him that sparring was also on the ice, and Yan Yang wanted to refute, but Coach Sun interrupted him, saying that it was the decision of the coaching staff.
During the formal training, before the coach called to start, Yan Yang started to slide desperately by himself. He fell on the ice. Chen Jin said in the past that he was protesting in some way. Yan Yang bluntly stated that he did not want to be a sparring coach and wanted to participate in the Olympics. Chen Jin told him: sparring is also a way to participate in the Olympics, and he can leave if he doesn't want to do it.
At the end of the training, Yan Yang felt extremely aggrieved. He sat alone on the steps, thinking about his rivalry with his father and the current situation, and suddenly he didn't know where to go. Jia Changan comforted him. Zou Qin was also selected by the first few of the provincial team before, and now he has been working as a sparring partner. Yan Yang stated that he came to the youth training camp to gain a chance to enter the Winter Olympics, not to be a sparring coach.
Yan Yang decided to leave, and the team members persuaded him that it was not worth it. Changan reminded Yan Yang that they would never go back without the gold medal, and he could not admit it. Yan Yang asked his teammates to go back first. He called his family and told his father that he should go to college. Dad told him: I never let Yan Yang see that medal before because I didn't want him to see his regrets, not because he was the second place, but because he didn't have the chance to win the first place again. He didn't agree with Yan Yang in sports. He just didn't want him to change his life for the injury like himself. He could have stopped Yan Yang at the airport that day, but when he saw him going to Beijing, the excitement on his face reminded him that he took his own road when he was young. He had to walk his own way. He decided to quit drinking and see if he could stop using crutches. If his son really decided to leave, he and his mother would go to the airport to pick him up after sending the flight number.
The next day, Yan Yang participated in the training on time. Teacher Yang went to Chen Jin's office and told her that Yan Yang had almost interrupted his professional training for a year, so the data analysis had such results, but the athlete itself was the biggest variable. He took Yan Yang's weaknesses and the level of other athletes into consideration By comparison, it was analyzed that he had such a problem because of his lack of professional training. They can find ways to strengthen guidance in these areas. Chen Jin is grateful that Teacher Yang's opinion coincides with his own.
Yibei showed Yan Yang the video materials of many previous sparring players. What he wanted to tell Yan Yang was that some sparring players were lucky enough to win gold and silver in the Olympic Games, but more sparring players ended up being unknown. He knew that Yan Yang was willing to be a sparring coach in order to stay in the youth training camp, but not every sparring coach could succeed. Yan Yang knew his uncle's worries, but he believed that even if he was a sparring coach, it would not affect his performance.
When training on the ice again, Jin Ying practiced a few laps and then Coach Chen let her off the ice and arranged for Yan Yang to take her to do Lu Xun's leg training. When the two were training, Yan Yang saw that Jin Ying's leg was injured, and he carefully wrapped her up, reminding her not to be so arrogant, otherwise her leg would be useless, and she had to learn to protect herself.
Yan Yang analyzed that Jin Ying's straight and cornering skills are very good, but the start was half a beat slower. Jin Ying smiled bitterly. She has always known this problem, but she has never found a solution. Yan Yang remembered that his father once said that the two most important points for athletes are training and mentality. He analyzed that Jin Ying should have a problem with mentality. He wanted to know about Jin Ying’s previous training experience abroad and help her analyze the reasons. Jin Ying’s excuse Feeling unwell, she fled back to the dormitory.
The next day of training, Chen Jin asked Jin Ying to practice the land start, but she ran countless times, but she still couldn’t start. Jin Ying was so tired that she was sweating profusely, saying that she tried her best, but she still couldn’t meet Coach Chen’s requirements. As far as her progress is concerned, she has only shortcomings in her eyes! Chen Jin asked Jin Ying back, did she think she didn't recognize the pair of gloves, did she not recognize that Jin Ying was the one who was sent out for the U.S. Championship? She also knew that after that race, Jin Ying had the slowest reaction every time she started. Is there only that important race in her life? As soon as she came to the youth training camp, she found Jin Ying. After so many years, if her efforts were only to gain her own recognition, would she leave the ice surface forever with her words of praise? She hoped that Jin Ying would remember: living in the past, she will never see the future! After Chen Jin left, Yan Yang felt extremely uncomfortable when he saw Jin Ying squatting on the ground crying.
