70s factory beauty, transform villain cubs to become rich

Chapter 686 Shocks the Entire Audience!

Chen Qing greatly admired Director Meng and was very humble. "I understand what you mean. To be honest, I also know how difficult it is for athletes, so I wanted to see if she was qualified to be an athlete."

"Alright, let's see what her talent is like then." Director Meng couldn't very well refuse Chen Qing directly.

She is the manager of a sportswear factory, a rare factory that allows athletes to earn some extra money. The factory provides samples for athletes to wear and test to see if they are good. After the athletes wear the samples, the factory will give them away for free and give each athlete a five-yuan testing fee.

Athletes usually take their sportswear to outsiders to exchange for other items, and then send the exchanged items back home.

Therefore, Director Meng cannot cut off the children's extra income.

The two arrived at the archery range.

The archery range was an open, muddy field with several weathered wooden targets at the far end, the ring numbers on the target paper already somewhat blurred.

Some training equipment was piled up on the sidelines, and several coaches wearing old sports shirts stood there with serious expressions, sifting through potential talents.

Jing Weibao quickly arrived with Xiaoyu and a group of children.

Xiao Yu's eyes lit up as soon as she saw her aunt, and she skipped and hopped towards her.

Director Meng could tell at a glance that the child had excellent physical fitness just by looking at his running posture and speed!
She's also very pretty, clearly a child who's been pampered since childhood. Putting everything else aside, Chen Qing is truly exceptional in his treatment of his sister's child.

Even if a family is well-off, they might not necessarily raise their daughters that well.

Chen Qing squatted down and touched her hair: "I came to see you. Just do your best. I believe you can do it."

"Ok!"

Xiao Yu clenched her fist, cheering herself on, brimming with energy.

He Yuxiang and the others came to Chen Qing's side.

Xiao Yu was called away by Jing Weibao.

When Jing Weibao saw that Chen Qing was standing next to Director Meng, he frowned slightly, looking somewhat worried.

The athletes' parents spoiled their children too much; that's not good...

But come all come.

Let's test Xiaoyu's talent first.

There is already a template for the archery test procedure; Jing Weibao just needs to follow it.

Basically, it involves shooting arrows from a fixed distance using a light-weight bow suitable for children, and observing the ring count and stability.

People were already testing their archery skills at the archery range. Everyone looked at Xiaoyu with longing in their eyes because she was wearing canvas shoes and a nice black tracksuit. She looked like a city kid who was well-fed.

They were all children recommended by sports schools and primary schools.

Most of them had trained for a period of time, so their posture was more standard. When they shot arrows, their arms would tremble, the trajectory of the arrows would be erratic, and most of them barely hit the target, with the ring score fluctuating.

There was no way around it; the group of kids were all dark-skinned and thin, lacking strength. Even if they had talent, they might not receive proper training.

So all the kids who came to the training base really wanted to stay, because they could keep eating meat!
Chen Qing looked at the children on the scene, her lips pressed tightly together, her heart sinking little by little: "They have it tough too."

Director Meng felt sorry for her when he saw her eyes and quickly said, "Yes, they are mostly children from the countryside with many brothers and sisters. What good food can they eat? Our country needs money everywhere. It's really not easy for us athletes."

He was giving frantic hints.

Chen Qing glanced at Director Meng indifferently.

Director Meng immediately said, "Your niece is about to be tested, let's take a good look."

When it was Xiaoyu's turn for the on-site test, she picked up the longbow, which was still a bit heavy for her, stood on the firing line, and with her round almond eyes, she instantly locked onto the bullseye in the distance under the coach's guidance.

Jing Weibao taught her how to shoot arrows.

Chen Qing and He Yuxiang, among others, became inexplicably nervous.

Following the coach's instructions, Xiaoyu stood steadily with her feet apart, one in front of the other.

With her left hand holding the bow and her right hand holding the string with three fingers, Xiaoyu's arm and shoulder formed a beautiful arc as the bowstring was slowly pulled back, remaining perfectly still.

His eyes narrowed slightly, all the light focused on the distant bullseye. Whoosh—

The moment the arrow left the bowstring, everyone's eyes followed its movement.

The arrow made a crisp, short sound as it pierced the air, striking the bullseye with precision, its fletching trembling slightly.

From raising the bow to hitting the target, the entire process was smooth and effortless.

That's not a trained standard, but an innate sense of rhythm.

The coaches present exchanged glances; they knew that some talents cannot be taught.

Director Meng was also taken aback.

That move was so beautiful!

In the subsequent basic tests, Xiaoyu performed far beyond the average person, even to the point of being perfect!

Director Meng stopped chatting with Chen Qing and went to talk to the coaches about some things. In order to further test her talent, an unconventional project was temporarily added.

The coaches temporarily erected a small marker on the grass in front of the target.

Jing Weibao pointed to the small target that was teleporting instantly, "Xiaoyu, try that one, shoot it before it falls."

This requirement exceeds the scope of children's training. Although the movement is slow and the distance is short, it is a pure test of Xiaoyu's personal talent.

Chen Qing held her breath, she was really nervous!

Xiao Yu's gaze instantly locked onto the tossed ball. She raised her bow again, but this time, her movements were no longer steady as before, but rather swift and decisive, just like yesterday's hunt.

She didn't have time to aim precisely, relying entirely on her feel and that instantaneous spatial intuition.

whoosh-

puff--

The arrow pierced the falling ball with pinpoint accuracy!

The ball was carried away by the force of the arrow and landed on the haystack behind it.

The entire archery range was completely silent.

Everyone was stunned.

Even a group of children stared wide-eyed.

Looking at the ball pierced by the arrow, it was as if they had witnessed something unbelievable.

Mao Mao clapped excitedly: "Ahhh, Xiao Yu is the best!!!"

A warm and sustained round of applause erupted from the sidelines.

Xiao Yu turned her head to look over, her eyes curving into crescent moons with laughter.

Director Meng looked at Xiao Yu with excitement. Sports really depend on talent, and this child's talent was obvious. It was as if she was born with a ruler and a scope.

This extraordinary focus and stability, coupled with an incredible shooting instinct, makes him perfect for archery practice!

Director Meng, who has trained Olympic champions, understands very well that geniuses in any era will emerge in their own unique and groundbreaking way.

"Comrade Xiaoyu, you really have to come to our sports training base."

"I need to ask my aunt." Xiaoyu looked at her aunt standing on the sidelines.

Chen Qing had a feeling that this was expected.

Her daughter, Xiaoyu, is very athletic, has exceptional focus in everything she does, and possesses strong mental fortitude—she's like a natural-born athlete. That's why... she felt so heavy-hearted.

Because being an athlete meant that Xiaoyu would have to endure hardship for a very long time in the future.
