Chapter 457: All the Necessary People Have Arrived (Part 1)

When Captain Liu returned to the advanced track, the competition was about to begin.

Since it was around eleven o’clock, many tourists who had tired themselves out skiing also gathered around.

Seeing Captain Liu coming back, the burly coach approached him again and reiterated his instructions.

Captain Liu, recalling what Miao Jia had said, knew that Zhao Qingfeng wanted to have some fun. He didn’t spell it out but vaguely reassured, “Don’t worry, don’t worry, we’ll definitely do our best…”

The burly coach was satisfied, “You don’t need to put in all your effort, half is enough.”

Captain Liu laughed to himself, half? No way!

If they didn’t go all out in their act, how could they ensure Zhao Qingfeng’s victory?

After all, the competitors weren’t just his own team members but also included tourists with considerable skiing experience. So, in the competition, they had to give way to Zhao Qingfeng and also have team members disrupt the order of the other competitors. Only in this way could they ensure Zhao Qingfeng’s perfect first place.

“Do it like this, like this…”

After the burly coach and deputy head had finished instructing, Captain Liu gathered his team members.

“What?”

“Captain, why should we give way to him?”

“And to disrupt others’ races, that’s fair competition, we can’t do that!”

The charm of competitive sports lies in fairness, something everyone hopes for.

However.

There are always exceptions, and some exceptions have become the norm. Ski competitions are still okay; these team members will win many gold medals in future competitions.

Unlike football.

Alas, if you want to complain, you could do so for a whole year without repeating yourself.

Corruption, paying for play, and so on, it’s just a mess.

“That person is Zhao Qingfeng.”

Captain Liu pointed at Zhao Qingfeng, who was preparing.

“Ah?”

“It’s him!”

“If it weren’t for him getting Qingyang Sports to sign us, we wouldn’t even have new training clothes, let alone training funds.”

That was the current state of the ski team. In past years, the team members had to rent ordinary houses for training, in stark contrast to this year’s Shangri-La.

Captain Liu nodded lightly, “Moreover, I’ve discussed this matter with the higher-ups. Besides, this isn’t an official competition, just entertainment. You don’t have to worry about this minor matter causing any social scandal. In short, as long as we don’t oppose them outright, there will always be benefits for us.”

His words made sense. The team members were young and spirited but not fools.

Looking at their brand new training suits and the skis that were more than ten times more expensive than before, they were too grateful to complain.

They quickly finished their pre-battle preparations and waited for the signal to start acting.

“Are you ready yet?”

Seeing everyone else was ready, Zhao Qingfeng was still putting on his snowboard, and the deputy head arrogantly came over to ask.

“Ready.”

Zhao Qingfeng clicked his snow boot buckles into place and smiled, raising his eyebrows.

“Then let’s start.”

The deputy head snorted coldly, turned, and walked back to personally pick up the starting pistol.

Zhao Qingfeng didn’t pay him any more attention. Instead, he first glanced at Captain Liu, nodded at each other, then put on the red scarf Shen Lingyao insisted on giving him, bent his knees and leaned forward, ready to launch into the ski track.

Bang!

A gunshot sounded.
