Seeing Li Yuang's dull eyes, Li Yan nodded with satisfaction.
I saw Li Yan casually pasting the photo of Li Yuang on the whiteboard, with the words World Championship written on it.
Han Tianyu's accidental injury made Li Yan very passive. According to this year's preparation plan, Wu Da Jinghe and Han Tianyu only participated in the first two races in November. No one expected that there would be an accident in the second race.
Han Tianyu's diagnosis report mentioned that a recovery period of half a year is required. This is a heavy blow to the Chinese short track speed skating team!
Even if Li Yuang rises strongly, Han Tianyu is still an indispensable backbone of the Chinese short track speed skating team!
More importantly, next year’s World Championships will collide with the Winter Games! Wang Meng will dispatch Li Yuang, Li Wenwu, An Kai and Zou Yuchen to participate in the Great Winter Games.
Others can say that if Han Tianyu cannot participate in the World Championships, and if Li Yuang cannot participate either, then the Chinese men's short track speed skating team will have to resign themselves to fate in next year's World Championships.
Li Yan stared at Li Yuang, waiting for his answer!
Li Yan is very patient. She knows that this choice will take time.
After all, Li Yuang's aunt Wang Meng is leading the team at the Great Winter Games. This basically requires Li Yuang to choose between family ties or honor?
At this time, Li Yuang suddenly realized that according to Dundun, the 2020 World Championships was canceled due to the epidemic, and the Chinese team did not participate in the 2021 World Championships. If he cannot participate in the World Championships next year, he will miss the All-Around Golden Boot before the BJ Winter Olympics...
He doesn't really care if he has gold boots or not. What he cares about is that if he gets the golden boots, he can pretend to be with his aunt!
Li Yuang remembered that Wang Meng often showed off her golden boots in the past!
Li Yan waited for a while and saw that Li Yuang still didn't answer, so she could only continue: "If I remember correctly, the youngest all-around champion of the World Championships currently registered in ISU is South Korea's Noh Jin-gyu at 19 years old. Next year, this record will be yours... …”
Li Yuang raised his head and said with sincere eyes: "It all depends on the team's arrangements! Whether it is the Winter Games or the World Championships, I have no objection!"
Having said that, Li Yuang has no intention of competing in the championship. He really wants to get a golden boot to break the stick record... Unfortunately, the system does not allow it! What if he really misses the Great Winter Games mission? What should I do if I feel zero ice? What about the Winter Olympics?
Li Yan was furious for a moment. If I could directly arrange for you to compete in the World Championships, would I still need to discuss it with you?
This matter is really not something Li Yan can decide. There are five people on the short track speed skating roster for the Great Winter Games, and four are on the national team. Li Wenwu, An Kai, and Zou Yuchen were all decided by the coaching staff at a meeting after Wang Meng arrived.
Only Li Yuang was requested by Director Wang Huizhong of the Pingdong Management Center, and Li Yan personally agreed!
At that time, the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics had just ended. Li Yan agreed, considering that Li Yuang was only a potential stock and not indispensable. Who would have thought that this kid would grow so quickly?
Rumors have leaked out that Wang Meng will be re-employed as long as she gets results at the Winter Games next year!
Under such circumstances, Li Yan's initiative to keep Li Yuang would inevitably be criticized.
Therefore, Li Yancai wanted to use honor to lure Li Yuang into offering to participate in next year's World Championships!
Li Yan chatted with Li Yuang for a few more words, and finally said, "If you want to be the all-around champion next year, come to me at any time." before letting Li Yuang leave.
…
After returning to the room, Li Yuang kept thinking about what happened just now. He didn't know the twists and turns inside. But judging from the exchange group led by my aunt for the Great Winter Games, this result is very important to her!
How could he backstab his aunt at this time?
"Carp, what's wrong? You look absent-minded." Li Wenwu asked with concern after seeing Li Yuang come back.
"It's okay. I'm just thinking about tomorrow's game. I don't know which extra event South Korea has chosen. If it's really 1,000 or 1,500, I'll be exhausted."

After listening to Li Yuang's words, Li Wenwu looked at his phone and said: "Congratulations... you guessed it right. The additional event in the Korean Ice Hockey Federation is the 1500m. Tomorrow morning there will be three individual events in the first round of qualifying, the second 1500m and First qualifying round for the relay. You have to participate in all but one of the 500m qualifying races.”
"It's as if you are not right." Li Yuang glared at Li Wenwu and continued, "The Korean Ice Hockey Federation has really taken great pains to promote Huang Tycoon. Even the projects are based on his strengths."
Huang Daheng's character is indeed not good, but he still has abilities, especially in terms of physical strength, which is different from ordinary people. He could often lead the 1,500-meter race until he finally lost to Lin Xiaojun...
"Who says it's not? It's understandable. If it were the Chinese station, we would also choose the 500 meters."
Li Yuang nodded in agreement. If it is held in BJ or Shanghai, the Chinese Ice Hockey Federation will definitely choose the 500 meters. With him competing with Wuhan University, the 500 meters gold medal is the safest.
The competition in Seoul, South Korea was held in three days. Due to ISU regulations, each national team can send up to six people to participate in the World Cup. Therefore, the first day is mainly about the qualifying competition of an event, the second day is the preliminaries and semi-finals, and the last day is the competition for the gold medal of an event. You can imagine the frequency and intensity of the competition. Like the World Championships, Yangma will only broadcast the finals on the last day.
In this competition in South Korea, Li Yuang has nothing to worry about in the two individual events of 1,000 meters and 1,500 meters. With his strength, advancing to the finals is a sure thing.
The only worry is the men's and women's 2000m mixed relay. In the first two races, the mixed accumulation team composed of Fan Kexin, Li Jinyu, Han Tianyu and Wu Dajing won the gold medal in this event for two consecutive races and set a record of 2:38 World record of 245 seconds.
The coaching staff was also worried that the new mixed relay team composed of Zhang Yuting, Zang Yize, Li Wenwu and Li Yuang would go wrong during the competition. During several adaptation trainings after coming to South Korea, they focused on the issue of baton handover.
Sure enough, in the mixed relay qualifying competition, Zang Yizeyu and Li Wenwu were continuously surpassed by others due to lack of tacit understanding and insufficient thrust during the handover. Fortunately, the opponents we met in the qualifying round were not strong and we advanced smoothly.
In the first two days of competition, Li Yuang used the skill "backhand heel sliding" to maximize his physical strength and successfully entered the finals.
In the 500-meter event, Jia Haidong was fouled in the semifinals and was sentenced to the Group B finals by the referee; in the 1,000-meter event, only Li Wenwu, besides Li Yuang, advanced to the Group A finals;
It is worth mentioning that An Kai took the initiative to give up the first 1500-meter race and was eliminated in the qualifying round. He took the initiative to conserve his strength and advanced hand in hand with Li Yuang in the second 1500-meter final.
Another player, Yu Song, became the first Chinese player to complete all events in Seoul because all the events he signed up for were eliminated and he was not on the relay list.
