The first National Games in the history of Fujian Athletics "Three Golden Kings"
The 14th National Games kicked off on September 20 in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, when locally confirmed cases were found in Putian, Xiamen and other places in Fujian Province, and the epidemic prevention and control situation was grim. As a result, the number of Fujian delegations participating in the 14th National Games decreased, and Ge Manqi's head coach Liu Zhaoxu was unable to accompany them.
Through the video footage, Liu Zhaoxu carefully observed Ge Manqi's performance during the game, and then gave guidance in the rear through telephone and video. However, this also stimulated Ge Manqi's fighting spirit to a certain extent, and finally won three gold medals in the finals of the 100 meters, 200 meters and 4 × 100 meters, becoming the first "three golden kings" of the National Games in the history of Fujian athletics.
"Four years ago, I shed tears of regret in Tianjin. At that moment, I decided that I must fight for the silent support behind my back after four years. Today in Xi'an won three gold, all efforts and efforts have not been in vain. On September 25, Ge Manqi revealed his heart in the circle of friends.
"Every time I play a final, I'm riveted." In the face of the severe test of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, the Fujian Provincial Sports Delegation took the initiative to reduce the number of athletes, coaches and team doctors, and after the completion of the competition, the athletes from Fujian spontaneously looked at each other's bags and trained together. Ge Manqi revealed that it may be because he is holding his breath and wants to do something for the "epidemic" in his hometown, this time Fujian athletes have achieved good results, "it can be said that it is a relatively difficult battle."
According to the fujian provincial sports bureau, a total of 430 people in Fujian were qualified to participate in the Shaanxi National Games, and finally 366 people participated in the finals of 28 major events and 203 minor events, achieving 25 gold, 17 silver, 18 bronze, and a total of 60 medals, ranking seventh in the country.
For the good results achieved at the Shaanxi National Games, Ge Manqi felt that it was expected and unexpected.
"The results achieved at the National Games have been maintained in previous training, which is expected." Ge Manqi said that in early August, after returning home from the Tokyo Olympics, he spent a 21-day quarantine period in Beijing, and when he returned to Fuzhou for training, he found that he felt unwell due to multiple regional adjustments and climate influences. In addition, during the quarantine period, the physical training could not keep up, and she was also very worried about the impact on the National Games.
