"14 minutes, 27 seconds 88! This is a full 11 seconds higher than the 14 minutes, 38 seconds 90 he set yesterday! Gu Kun became the first person on earth to swim under the 14 minutes and 40 seconds barrier.

An Earthling who swims for 14 and a half minutes!"

"Gu Kun brought a perfect ending to his Universiade journey."

Reporters from various countries announced excitedly into the microphone in front of their respective cameras in their respective languages.

When Gu Kun came off the stage wearing a bath towel, countless reporters gathered around him. People from NHK took advantage of the landlord and got there first:

"Gu, may I ask why you suddenly broke the 10-second world record today? Is it because you don't want to retain your strength? The outside world says that you want to be someone who surpasses Bubka, but it's all in vain, Gu's sportsmanship that goes all out, you

What’s the explanation for this?”

Gu Kun: "I can break as many as I want. As for sportsmanship, I think it should be viewed from an overall perspective. For those events that require a lot of physical exertion, before the final round of competition, as long as you can ensure victory, leave some

Physical strength is quite normal.

I can't allocate my energy like everyone else, because you can't find another player who needs to register for 9 events and swim 25 games in total, right?"

The NHK reporter was left speechless by the rhetorical question, and felt that what Gu Kun said was indeed very reasonable.

Yes, Gu Kun is the only person on earth who has applied for nine gold medals at once, and has to swim at least four times on average every day. Is it wrong for people to allocate their physical strength a little?

Now it’s the last day. Didn’t they just try their best to break the world record of 10 seconds?

The Bubka conspiracy theory is totally slander! Gu Kun’s sportsmanship is at least nobler than Bubka’s!

The female reporter ended the interview respectfully with an almost flattering smile.

Then Gu Kun was touched by a group of Japanese girls through the fence, desperately trying to ask for his autograph.

Gu Kun signed a few as a courtesy and then left the venue under the protection of bodyguards.

Limited by the nature of the competition and the scale of media coverage, he believed that his reputation was so popular in Japan for the time being. As for spreading it back to China and attracting everyone's attention, it would probably not be until the start of school.

That is the real harvest season.

However, it is good to have a good reputation in Japan. After returning to Lanzhou, in the first one or two years, Chinese tourists will still not be wealthy enough compared to Lanzhou's consumption level.

If it can attract enough Japanese people to support it, it doesn't need to be too many, tens of thousands of people every year will be a big business. After all, Lanfang is only that big, and there are very few people to support.

…

Just like that, Gu Kun made a high-profile return with an epic honor.

On the night of August 21, his flight arrived in Hujiang from Tokyo, and then transferred to Guangdong and Kuching. Because it was late at night when he arrived in Kuching, he stayed one night and returned to Lanzhou on his own boat early the next morning.

square.

At the Lanfang Port pier, Gu Kun saw a grand welcome ceremony.

It turned out to be the Grand Duke of Lanfang, Zhu Youdong, wearing formal court clothes and coming out to "welcome" the hero's triumphant return.

"Your Highness." Gu Kun asked politely first.
