51 Interview

Tang Yan's heartbeat was somewhat uncontrollable.

Even though his soul was in its thirties, even if he had actually experienced life and death, when he had the opportunity to beat the Korean team, he still couldn't suppress his own emotions.

His breathing was a bit heavy.

He took a deep breath, aiming at the distant target.

The target that had been shot by him with a hole stood quietly 70 meters away, and he aimed at the location of the hole. His first arrow had taken out a decent section of the 10 point ring.

Feeling that his arm was about to reach it's limit, he released his right thumb and forefinger.

"Twang!"

The arrow was straight off the string and flew.

All the eyes on the scene moved with the arrow that broke through the air.

This last arrow would determine the final fate of the two teams.

"Whoosh!"

An empty sound.

There was no sound coming from the target as before.

Off target?

Many viewers had this thoughts flash through their head, but soon, the audience in the front row screamed with excitement.

After the referee observed it, he followed by signalling the number of points.

10 points!

This wasn't off target, but it went through the previous hole, without even touching the edge!

When the referee gave the results, the entire venue instantly boiled.

Many Chinese on the scene burst into tears.

The Chinese team, with Tang Yan's winning streak, defeated the unequaled South Korean team in the men's archery team competition!

"China has clinched victory! What an extraordinary shot!" said a commentator shouting excitedly.

"China, China, China" The scene developed into resounding shouts.

Listening to the shouts of the Chinese people, feeling the surrounding atmosphere, Tang Yan didn't control his emotions, holding up the recurve bow, and unconsciously shed tears of excitement.

As an archery enthusiast, he knew what the team's victory over the Korean team meant for Chinese archery.

This was something that no one else dared to think about. It was destined to be a moment in the annals of history.

"Tang Yan! Tang Yan!"

When Tang Yan walked to the rest area of ​​the Chinese team, Li Haoze and Zheng Zhun yelled his name and then rushed toward him.

Tian Zhenzhe was also emotional and his eyes were red.

At the same time, the rest area of ​​the South Korean team next door was in dead silence, including Wu Quantai. They were unable to accept the facts. They....lost.

Park Tae-an was even more emotionally slammed, squatting on the ground and punching the ground with his hands.

Tang Yan defeated the South Korean team's body and mind with the perfect score of 12 arrows for 120 points.

Tang Yan also fulfilled his promise and made the Korean team a spectator in the team competition.

This was also the first time since the twentieth century that the Korean archery team missed the finals in a major event!

The German team and the Swiss team were also up to battle. So the two teams began to withdraw from the venue after a brief emotional adjustment.

....

Tang Yan and the Chinese team just left the venue when they were surrounded by reporters. The South Korean team was particularly deserted. Even some Korean reporters who had arrived chose to leave early.

"Tang Yan, Tang Yan!" There was a beautiful reporter who squeezed out from the crowd, holding a microphone in her right hand, and constantly yelling the name of Tang Yan.

Tang Yan glanced over. She looked familiar and after careful thought, he remembered she was the host of the Zhejiang Provincial TV station that he saw at the National Championship. If he remember correctly, she was called Shi Min.

Shi Min noticed that Tang Yan looked over and immediately asked: "Tang Yan, can you share with us your feelings after defeating the South Korean team?"

Tang Yan paused and said with a smile: "Well... very exciting, you know, this is the first time our Chinese team has beaten South Korea in a big event in many years. I'm filled with exhilaration having been able to compete with some of the best archers of my age group today."

After that, he added another sentence: "It was a good battle you know and we all fought hard for the victory and we are all overjoyed to make it to the next round. Hopefully we can go all the way to the end and win a gold medal"

This supplementary sentence attracted a smile from the reporter.

"Can you share with us what you think gave you the edge over the Korean team today?" Shi Min seized the opportunity, and asked another question not letting other reporters but in.

The opportunity for general reporters to ask questions was very limited. Shi Min stealing more time to ask questions attracted some dissatisfaction. However, seeing Tang Yan already answering, they could only endure.

"Well today's weather was rather bad, affecting the players' performance to a certain extent. I think we adjusted better and were able to seize our opportunities which allowed us to win." Tang Yan analyzed.

Tang Yan's answers made the reporters feel a bit surprised. This should be the first time Tang Yan interviewed with a media reporter, but it he was so direct and concise not rambling on in excitement like you would expect from someone of his age group.

"Today you shot through two archery targets. The organizing committee used three targets just for you. What do you want to say about this?" Another reporter asked.

"Well, this...." Tang Yan paused. If he told them he had adjusted the number of pounds from 50 to 100, it would definitely scare people. He thought about it and smiled. "Probably... the quality of the targets weren't very good...haha a lucky break on my part."

When the words came out, the reporters smiled again, and then they couldn't help but laugh.

Tian Zhenzhe saw Tang Yan give more and more nonsense answers. He took a step forward and reached out and said: "Today's interview ends here guys. Tang Yan is tired from the game and needs to go back to rest earlier."

After Tian Zhenzhe finished, he took Tang Yan and walked to the side. The reporters didn't stop asking questions. Of course, they refused to give up. They tried to squeeze forward, but at this time the venue staff came over and quickly stopped them.

The reporters saw Tang Yan gradually disappearing into the passage, those who didn't get the opportunity to ask a question felt frustrated they looked over for Shi Min but her figure was nowhere to be found she was long gone.

"Look at you being all energetic answering questions, look at that massive grin on your face." When they left the athlete passage, Tian Zhenzhe couldn't help but say.

"Coach, when you defeat the Koreans, you can be a celebrity like me." Tang Yan said with a smile.

"You...haha" Tian Zhenzhe chocked in laughter then went to flick Tang Yan on the head.

But Tang Yan's reactions were faster, he ducked away and ran forward.

"This kid!" Tian Zhenzhe looked at Tang Yan but didn't go to chase, he smiled and snorted, but from his eyes you could see he was becoming more and more fond of Tang Yan.
