Chapter 107 Return to the Crystal Palace ([-])
The next day, Zheng Fan, who returned to BJ by plane, found Zhou Zhibin immediately, and made three applications to Minister Zhou:
First, I hope to verify the content of the gambling agreement as soon as possible and join the national figure skating team; second, I hope to participate in this year's World Figure Skating Championships and get the support of the national team; third, I hope that I can agree to go to the Crystal Palace to participate in training.

Zhou Zhibin looked at Zheng Fan with a smile. The athlete in front of him was not complacent or supercilious because he had won three gold medals. He was still as humble and polite as when we first met.

After hearing Zheng Fan's three applications, Zhou Zhibin got up unhurriedly and poured Zheng Fan a glass of water before sitting back at his desk and saying, "The first application you mentioned doesn't matter about the VAM agreement." It, you know how to do quadruple jumps, and you still care about triple axels. So, our figure skating national team has approved your application to join the team. This is an agreement. After you sign, you will be a member of the national figure skating team gone."

After finishing speaking, Zhou Zhibin took out an agreement from the drawer and handed it to Zheng Fan.

Zheng Fan took the agreement, signed it without hesitation, and handed the agreement back to Zhou Zhibin with both hands.

Zhou Zhibin was still smiling, put the contract aside, and continued: "The second application, when you answered the reporter's question after the Netherlands World Championships, you said that you planned to participate in this year's World Figure Skating Championships, and it happened that Yan Han An arm injury requires surgery, and the surgery is scheduled for the end of March, so you probably won’t be able to participate in this World Championships, and there is a vacant spot, so I have already registered your name, and you can go directly to the competition when the time comes.”

After hearing Zhou Zhibin's reply, Zheng Fan was very moved. Zhou Zhibin should have been paying attention to him.

"As for the third application, I have already contacted you all and completed the procedures for you. You can report to the Moscow Crystal Club at any time. Ms. Etri has been looking forward to you for a long time!"

While talking, Zhou Zhibin took out an envelope, put it on the table and pushed it to Zheng Fan: "Here is the plane ticket to Moscow tomorrow, as well as your passport and visa. Thank you for taking it away!"

Zheng Fan took the envelope with a look of surprise, and was about to say something to express his inner excitement and gratitude, but Zhou Zhibin waved his hand to stop him: "The leaders approved for you, it is a Moscow letter for an unlimited period of time." Tickets for the trip, that is to say, you can continue to practice figure skating at the Crystal Club in the future. But there are two things that I must tell you in advance."

Zhou Zhibin's expression became serious, and his tone became low. Zheng Fan knew that he was going to talk about something serious, so he also sat upright, with an attitude of listening attentively and being taught.

"The first thing I told you is that you need to coordinate the training schedule with the national speed skating team. The national figure skating team does not make too many demands on you in this regard, but it will not come forward to help you coordinate what?"

After all, Zhou Zhibin paused, and after seeing Zheng Fan nodded, he continued:
"The second thing is what I want to tell you. The road has been paved for you, and I have done everything that can help you. How far you can go in the future is up to you.

I am very optimistic about your talent, and I am not worried about it;
As for your character, through my own observation and understanding from all parties, I can trust you, and I am still very confident in my judgment.

So, what I want to tell you is, I hope that no matter where you are in the future, no matter what your achievements are in the future, don't forget that you are a Chinese! "

Zheng Fan deeply agreed with Zhou Zhibin's words, but he didn't say anything, just nodded with firm eyes.

……

Coming out of Minister Zhou's office, Zheng Fan walked to Hao Qiang's office.

Zheng Fan wanted to meet his first figure skating teacher again.

In the national figure skating team, the person closest to him is Hao Qiang.

Hao Qiang spent many nights with him on the training ground. This feeling is so deep that Zheng Fan can't give up. He is about to go to the Crystal Palace for training. I don't know when the next time we meet will be.

When he came to the office door, Zheng Fan happened to meet Hao Qiang walking out, so he hurriedly stepped forward to stop Hao Qiang: "Coach, I'm back!"

"Zheng Fan?! The World Championships did well!" Hao Qiang rarely praised Zheng Fan, and reached out to pat Zheng Fan on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement.

"Hey, under your guidance, my figure skating has been improving by leaps and bounds recently, and I guess I'm not far from winning the gold medal. Are you free tonight? I'll treat you to dinner!" Zheng Fan asked.

"Today? Not today, I'm in a hurry to go home."

"What's the matter?"

"Today is my birthday!" After saying that, Hao Qiang turned around and left in a hurry.

Birthday?

Didn’t Hao Qiang’s birthday pass last month?

Zheng Fan remembered that when he went to see Hao Qiang at night last month, Hao Qiang just said that it was his birthday that day, and hurried home.

Come again today?

Just when Zheng Fan was at a loss, another coach came out of the office, and seeing Zheng Fan standing at the door, he greeted him and said, "Zheng Fan, you don't know yet, Hao Qiang The couple recently reconciled as before, and their relationship has rejuvenated, and they finally want to have a baby, so it's a little tight for this guy to go home during this time."

"Then Coach Hao Qiang used to stay on the training ground all the time..."

"The couple had a quarrel before, and they can't go home, so they can only stay here."

After all, the coach turned around and went back to the house, leaving Zheng Fan alone in the wind.

……

Red walls, green roofs, everything is the same as a month ago.

Looking at the Crystal Palace dotted with stars, Zheng Fan was full of emotions. Last time, he came and went in a hurry; but this time, he is likely to stay here for a long time.

Although it was very late, because Zheng Fan had called in advance, Sister Mian should still be waiting for him.

After saying hello to the guard, Zheng Fan opened the door and entered the Crystal Palace, walking towards the skating rink.

The ice rink is huge, but it's already past time, so no one is training on the ice.

There were two people chatting on the sidelines, it was Sister Mian and Uncle Du.

When Uncle Du saw Zheng Fan coming, he got up and walked to Zheng Fan, gave Zheng Fan a hug, then raised his eyebrows, and said, "Good performance! I hope you can do the same in the World Figure Skating Championships! Etelly and I want to tell you something, you talk, I'm leaving first. See you tomorrow!"

After saying goodbye to Uncle Du, Zheng Fan said hello to Sister Mian, sat next to Sister Mian and said, "Coach Ai Teli, I kept you waiting. It costs more to go through the formalities at Sangbo 70 School." It took me some time, but fortunately everything has been arranged, and I think I can participate in training tomorrow!"
