Chapter 137: Interview Buzz & Welcome Dinner 

The members of the track and field national team were unaware that this time, the Asian Championships had received exponentially higher attention in their home country compared to previous events. Every drop of sweat they shed on the field, every achievement they made, was being watched by countless viewers.

With attention came media coverage, and with media coverage came a chase for more. The victorious track and field national team received a genuine "victorious return" treatment. Numerous media outlets waited at the airport exit, and even some track and field fans came to welcome these returning heroes.

Jiang Wentao's flight landed ahead of the others. Upon landing, he received a call from the staff at the Athletics Management Center, notifying him that a large number of media personnel had arrived at the airport.

To avoid congestion and prevent chaos, Jiang Wentao, with no time to rest, urgently coordinated with the airport staff to clear an area for interviews and press conferences. This led to the organization of a small-scale press conference.

Due to limited space and time constraints, Jiang Wentao selected a few athletes who had performed exceptionally well in this Asian Championships as representatives to face the press.

The other athletes had no objections to Jiang Wentao's choices. After all, those selected were either athletes who had achieved remarkable results in this competition, broken Chinese track and field history records, or secured gold medals at the Asian Championships.

In the world of sports, achievements spoke for themselves, and athletes like Zhang Ziyi and Cui Luoheng had the talent and results that justified them representing the team in interviews. It was only natural.

So, Jiang Wentao and the chosen athletes proceeded to the designated interview area, leaving the rest of the team to meet with the airport staff and board the team bus.

Meanwhile, at the other airport exit, Qiu Wen and the other athletes followed the airport staff. The team bus was already waiting for them.

As they boarded the bus, they noticed small boxes on their seats.

"Hey, what are these boxes?"

Qiu Wen examined the handcrafted paper boxes in his hand with curiosity, and a mouthwatering aroma wafted out when he opened one.

"Oh, nearly forgot about these," the bus driver said, hearing the question. "Each of you has a snack box prepared by Coach Su Bai and Chef Jin Manjiang. They're freshly made this afternoon. We still have to wait for the other athletes to arrive, so go ahead and enjoy these snacks."

Wow!

Snacks made by Su Bai and Jin Manjiang!

When the people on the bus heard this, their eyes lit up—this was quite something!

Most of the people on the bus were not from the 400-meter sprint team, but they all had friends in that team. They had heard countless stories about Su Bai, but he was a legitimate 400-meter head coach. Could he really cook for everyone?

So, they had been looking forward to trying food prepared by Su Bai for a long time.

This time, it was said that Su Bai and Jin Manjiang had worked together on these snacks.

Oh my, Jin Manjiang's culinary skills were beyond what ordinary team members could enjoy. Whether it was Jin Manjiang or Su Bai who made these snacks, they had certainly struck gold!
