Chapter 627 Call
The archery hall that Chen Jinzhi booked an appointment at was near the studio. It didn’t look very professional, but it was sparsely populated and deserted.

This was probably a side business developed on a whim by the owner of the gym downstairs. Of course, it has been losing so much money that it is on the verge of bankruptcy.

The era of hot weapons, coupled with the emergence of more stable crossbows, has made archery a serious unpopular sport. Probably only children on the prairie will persist in learning it.

However, most of the bows they use are traditional bows and arrows, which are different from the recurve bows used in archery competitions.

When Su Chengyi was learning archery, he accepted all kinds of archery, even the most professional and most lethal compound bow.

The difference in feel and psychological changes brought about by the transition from traditional bows to compound bows is probably the same as switching directly from a Mauser M98 rifle to an AK.

However, in formal archery competitions, recurve bows are generally used, which are less powerful, have fewer auxiliary tools, and test the archer's own skills more.

Similarly, the competitive recurve bow has the lowest entry threshold, and most archery gyms' starting bows are generally of this type.

So, even though this archery hall doesn't look very popular, the infrastructure is still good, and the recurve bows available for selection have all been maintained to a certain extent.

Su Chengyi weighed it and handed Chen Jinzhi an 18-pound bow, and he directly took the 30-pound bow in the corner that was obviously not in demand.

In fact, 30 pounds doesn't sound very heavy, but archery requires shoulder muscles and back muscles, which ordinary people who don't exercise rarely exercise and usually don't have much strength in.

18 pounds is definitely not a light weight for a girl of Chen Jinzhi's weight.

Thinking of this, Su Chengyi reminded:
"It's normal to feel like you can't pull it. Take your time. Don't rush. It's easy to hurt yourself."

"it is good."

Chen Jinzhi plucked the bowstring, smiled and nodded.

"Hey! Why is the coolest bow gone? Boss, give me a 30-pound one!"

Xiao Zheng, who had specifically requested to change into professional equipment, came out of the locker room noisily. He was rubbing his hands together, and was obviously very excited as it was his first time here.

A typical rookie period when he doesn't know his place.

Su Chengyi glanced at him, threw the bow in his hand over, and raised his chin.

"Give."

"Okay, okay, okay!"

Xiao Zheng, with his hobo hairstyle, immediately walked happily to the archery area and rolled up his sleeves with great poise, revealing the biceps he had trained after months of hard work in the gym.

"Master, please don't underestimate me. If I hadn't gotten the studio's annual gym membership for free and hadn't spent every day in the gym training, I really wouldn't have been able to light up those 200 boxes of fireworks. Oh, I'm not kidding. Ouch!"

Before he could finish his words, the bowstring suddenly rebounded and gave him a severe lesson. He was unable to lift his arm for a long time.

"Honest?"

Su Chengyi uttered a "huh" and immediately turned around and said to Chen Jinzhi:

"See? From the stance to the bow-raising action, it's all a standard negative example."

"Ah."

Chen Jinzhi hugged her bow and laughed so hard that she shook with laughter.

Xiao Zheng asked him for help with a bitter face.

"Master, stop gloating. Look at how my arm can't move. It hurts!"

Su Chengyi walked over with his hands in his pockets and pinched his shoulders, and he screamed like a pig being slaughtered.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

The empty archery hall was filled with the bloody and terrifying sounds. Passersby who had just walked to the door and wanted to come in to take a look all looked embarrassed and turned away.

After some effort, Xiao Zheng's arm was finally able to move again, but he also waved his hand to indicate that he didn't want to play anymore. He brought in a fruit plate, sat next to him, and watched the show while eating melon seeds.

"Iris, I apologize to you. It is true that I thought archery was too simple and signed up without discussing it with you in advance.

You must not have any psychological pressure, it doesn't matter if you can't practice well. Anyway, the focus of this idol sports meeting is definitely the idols rather than the sports, so don't be too concerned about sportsmanship or anything like that.

Don’t hurt your arm like I did. There are a lot of activities scheduled in the next few days. Let me see, three commercials and four interviews.”

"Don't make any noise."

Su Chengyi placed his fingers on the bowstring and plucked it threateningly, making a "buzzing" sound.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, spare me, sir!"

Out of physical instinct, Xiao Zheng shuddered and raised his hands in surrender.

But it turns out that even when facing death, the chatterbox couldn't help but talk nonsense. While surrendering, he couldn't help but continue:
"But I'm serious. Don't try too hard, Iris."

Receiving his concern, Chen Jinzhi poked his head out from behind Su Chengyi and smiled gently.

"Okay, Brother Zheng, I'll pay attention."

"Actually, it's good to miss the target. In the minds of your fans, you are always too perfect. If you show your shyness or act cute at the right time, it will have a better effect."

Xiao Zheng continued to give advice based on his experience in the entertainment industry and talked freely.

"You know, not being able to shoot arrows is not a black mark at all. Instead, it can become a funny joke.

I have thought of all the hot search topics for you, they are #There are things in the world that Chen Jinzhi can't do#, #Chen Jinzhi missed the target#, #Iris's arrow didn't miss the target, it just shot into my heart#"

Xiao Zheng could talk like this so easily that Su Chengyi was amazed. He would never be able to come up with such topics that had such a strong marketing flavor in his life.

"Besides, to be honest, with a face like yours, anything you do will be forgiven."

Xiao Zheng shook his head and sighed, picked up a piece of dragon fruit and put it in his mouth, and said vaguely:
"Right, Master? You know this best."

Su Chengyi narrowed his left eye slightly, pulled the bowstring in the air, and aimed at the center of the bull's eye.

"Yes, there are great scholars who will argue for her."

Although Xiao Zheng Chedong said a lot of comforting words and Chen Jinzhi responded with a smile, when she stood in front of the target, everyone present realized her seriousness.

“While stance is something that varies from person to person, generally speaking it’s good to have your feet about shoulder-width apart or slightly wider.”

Su Chengyi patted Chen Jinzhi's thigh gently, signaling her to adjust her posture.

"it is good."

Chen Jinzhi followed his corrective movements, trying to adjust and maintain a fixed angle and center line of the body.

"Stop, now this is standard."

Su Chengyi nodded in affirmation.

Chen Jinzhi is indeed very quick at learning anything, his comprehension is truly innate.

Although there is the possibility of the early bird catches the worm, such as the tortoise and the hare, that is based on the premise that smart people are not hardworking.

The most terrifying thing is that smart people are also at the pinnacle of diligence, and then they are truly invincible among the same level.

"Next is raising the bow. There are a few points you need to pay special attention to."

Su Chengyi picked up the bow and arrow with one hand and began to demonstrate.

“Correct position of the bow arm and rotation of the arm, correct positioning and fixation of the bow arm and shoulder, maintaining the correct center of the body and line of support when lifting the bow, and establishing the correct balance of power between the string arm and the bow arm.”

He doesn't actually pay much attention to these things when he's shooting arrows on weekdays, he just does what he pleases.

But because he was teaching, he needed to act like a regular coach, so he tried his best to make the movements pleasing to the eye, simple and clear.

Student Chen Jinzhi was very serious in class, with his brows slightly furrowed and humming from time to time.

When it was her turn to practice, she would ask questions promptly if she had any questions that confused her. She would not hide anything or be embarrassed to ask.

While Su Chengyi was helping her adjust the bow angle, he sighed silently in his heart:

In fact, through archery teaching, we can infer Chen Jinzhi's attitude when learning other things. She has not changed for so long. When Su Chengyi taught her at the beginning, she learned very quickly and dared to raise her own confusions without feeling ashamed.

Miss Chu is also a good student, but she often tries to get away with it. Chen Jinzhi is different. She is very determined to get to the bottom of things.

It seems that she has always been a very strong and resilient girl, which is why she was able to struggle out of her life which was like a swamp.

If it was Su Chengyi's stubborn and awkward personality, he would have grown up astray long ago and might have become an antisocial and dark personality.

After he started teaching seriously, Su Chengyi realized that there were so many things to pay attention to in archery. After studying everything from standing posture to the finger shape of the bow hand, several hours had passed and Chen Jinzhi had not officially shot an arrow.

At first, Xiao Zheng was watching the show with great interest, but later he pulled out a yoga mat and fell asleep. Now he was so thirsty that he went out and brought back a few bottles of soda water and energy drinks.

"Master, I see you are training an Olympic champion? Or a World Championship gold medalist?"

Xiao Zheng unscrewed the bottle cap and took a big sip. He couldn't help but sarcastically said:

"I just saw the team next door who arrived later than us, shooting arrows all over the room. Now they are packing up their things and leaving happily."

"Is there an arrow on the target?"

Su Chengyi snorted coldly, not caring at all.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

"Now you can try to draw the bow, slowly, just like practicing your stance, to find the rhythm that is most comfortable for you.

Don’t shrug your shoulders or shift your weight. Keep your body in a straight line.”

Although his attitude was strict, his tone was still gentle, after all, the person he was teaching was his girlfriend.

If he were to teach Xiao Zheng, he might have to change his attitude.

When necessary, bows and arrows can also be melee weapons - the Elf Prince Legolas knows this very well.

Chen Jinzhi nodded slightly, followed his instructions, and slowly pulled the bowstring.

18 pounds is still a bit heavy for her, but fortunately she had been in special forces training on the crew some time ago, and practiced a lot of martial arts moves with the martial arts instructor. Lifting metal props and waving them around every day can be considered a form of exercise.

In addition, Su Chengyi's guidance was quite professional and scientific, so she was able to pull the bow and arrow smoothly.

In a perfect standard posture.

"good very good."

Su Chengyi held his breath and was very satisfied with his teaching results.

"Ready, count down, three, two, one, release."

As soon as he finished speaking, the arrow in Chen Jinzhi's hand flew out.

The two of them have a very good understanding of each other and their words follow their actions.

The arrow shot out with a "whoosh" sound, with great momentum and full of power.

Xiao Zheng, who had been acting sarcastic just now, was also aroused and let out an excited "Oh".

Three gazes followed closely, staring at the target opposite, looking forward to the final outcome.

Su Chengyi didn't have high psychological expectations for this arrow. After all, it was a beginner's first time shooting arrows, and it was a rare achievement to be able to shoot it successfully.

Unexpectedly, Chen Jinzhi was indeed a martial arts genius with extraordinary talent. This arrow, which was used as a teaching level, actually hit the seventh ring steadily.

Su Chengyi looked at the arrow tail that was still vibrating slightly, and recalled that when he first learned archery, he seemed to have hit the seventh ring.

It’s just that he is too young and he is using a children’s bow and arrow, so it’s a little easier.

“Wow!!! Awesome!!!”

Xiao Zheng jumped up from his chair and clapped loudly.

Chen Jinzhi breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in thanks.

But Su Chengyi could clearly feel that this result could not satisfy her. She had become so strict with herself that she was not human at all.

"In that case, let's practice for a while today."

Su Chengyi pulled out another arrow and handed it to her.

After hearing this, Xiao Zheng on the other side almost fell to the ground.

"Really? Young Master, you're still not satisfied after getting seven rings? Are you really training an Olympic champion?"

"I am dissatisfied myself."

Chen Jinzhi smiled slightly and took the arrow handed to him by Su Chengyi.

"The difficulty of the competition is roughly the same as this. I want to practice more in the next few days and try to get a ranking."

"You two are really a perfect match."

Xiao Zheng sighed, picked up a bottle of soda water and handed it to her.

"You two are amazing, Mr. and Mrs. Juan Wang. Come on, I'll go back to the studio and contact you. I'll try to postpone the work for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow to give you time to practice archery."

"That would be great."

Chen Jinzhi smiled and took the water he handed over.

Su Chengyi stretched lazily and turned the arrow in his hand.

In fact, he felt that with Chen Jinzhi's talent, it was not impossible for him to win such an informal competition after two days of cramming.

"Then I'll go back and make arrangements. You two can practice slowly. Call me later and I'll call a car to pick you up."

Xiao Zheng lowered his head to look at the professional equipment on his body. The more he looked at it, the more he disliked it. The rental fee was quite high.

"Let's go, let's go!"

He kicked and stomped to express his dissatisfaction and left through the side door.

After drinking the water, Chen Jinzhi immediately stood in front of the target again, with no intention of relaxing or taking a rest.

"Thank you for practicing with me, Teacher Su."

She turned slightly, her eyes gentle.

"You're welcome."

Su Chengyi shook his head and tightened the cap of the soda bottle.

If she continues to work hard like this, it will be easy for her to defeat a few of her fellow opponents.

Su Chengyi was thinking about where to start teaching next when the cell phone that had been placed next to the fruit plate suddenly buzzed.

"Wait a moment, I'll take a call."

Su Chengyi waved to Chen Jinzhi, who quickly nodded in response and began to try to draw the bow and string himself, not idle either.

Su Chengyi walked to the rest area and unlocked his phone screen.

The caller ID shows "Unknown" and it is a secondary card.

The phone number of the secondary card is his private number, and generally only close friends know it.

Su Chengyi frowned slightly, pressed the answer button, and put the receiver to his ear.

There was an unfamiliar male voice on the other end of the phone, with a slight accent and a joking tone.

"Hello, Mr. Su."

For some reason, Su Chengyi's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and every nerve in his body tensed up.
