Following in Bolt's footsteps

Chapter 181
The outdoor warm-up field outside the Rio Olympic Stadium.

Wu Ziyi's face was as relaxed as ever, while Su Bingtian's face was solemn. Xie Zhenye kept talking to them and kept smiling, but from the movements of licking his lips, he could tell how nervous he was.

Wu Ziyi had a lot of conversations with Xie Zhenye for the first time. He knew that Xie Zhenye was in a very nervous mood. Although Xie Zhenye had been emphasizing that "my strength will definitely not make it to the finals." They", but Wu Ziyi knew that he was very eager to enter the finals, but dreams were dreams after all, and Xie Zhenye's strength at this time was not enough to stand on that stage.

With the addition of Wu Ziyi's bug, and Su Bingtian, who scored 10 seconds twice this year and regards the rematch as a final, this time the men's [-]m semi-final will definitely be more intense than in his previous life, and perhaps the threshold for the final will exceed last year's Yanjing World Championships game.

The contestants are undergoing the final inspection, and Xie Zhenye will be the first of the three to appear.

里约时间8月14日晚20点，2016里约奥运会男子100米半决赛。

Live footage flew over the statue of Jesus on Rio's Corcovado Hill and captured the Rio Olympic Stadium in the air.

"Audiences from all over the world, let us overlook the Olympic Stadium from the sky—this is the palace of sports dreams! Tonight, we will witness who is the fastest man in the world."

Before the start of the Rio Olympic Games, many netizens left messages under CCTV's scarf, hoping to let Liu Yi, who showed his amazing skills at the World Championships last year, come to explain. The leaders of CCTV saw that everyone expected it, so they invited Liu Yi.

Liu Yi happened to be in Rio too. Although he retired and started his own career, he often interacted with Wu Ziyi, Su Bingtian and others. Of course he would not miss such a grand event in Rio, so he gladly accepted the invitation and had a chat with Yang Let's explain tonight's men's [-]m semi-final and final together.

Back in the stadium, the men's [-]m semi-finalists were ready for introduction.

"Track 2, Hassan Taftan from Iran."

"The third track is Jimmy Vicourt, a famous French player we are very familiar with."

"The 4th track is the Jamaican player Ashmead who Xie Zhenye defeated in the group stage, but it can be clearly seen that he slowed down in the end, and his strength is very strong."

"On track 5, this is South African teenager Akani Sibini. He also ran his personal best of 9 seconds this year."

Liu Yi: "Track 6, Chinese player Xie Zhenye! Xie Zhenye created a personal best time of 10 seconds in the group stage. I hope he can perform well in the semifinals and set a new high!"

"The seventh track is Ben Youssef Meite from Côte d'Ivoire. He ran 7 seconds this year and opened 9 seconds."

"The 8th track is No.3 in the national trials, Marvin Blasey; the 9th track is Jacques Ali Harvey from Turkey."

The strength of the players in this group is quite close. Except for Xie Zhenye and Iran's Taftan, the other players have run under 10 seconds, and the qualifying situation is very difficult to predict.

“On your marks~”

Finally, this moment has come, Xie Zhenye, don't think about whether you will make it to the finals, your task today is to break through yourself!
"Ha!" Xie Zhenye yelled to cheer himself up, walked forward with firm eyes, stepped on the starting block, and made good moves to wait for the gun to be fired.

"Set—"

"boom--!"

When the starting gun fired, Xie Zhenye quickly exerted force with his left leg and ejected himself. His starting was very different from Wu Ziyi and Su Bingtian.Su Bingtian has a very low center of gravity and a very fast pace, while Wu Ziyi has a high center of gravity and a long stride, and Xie Zhenye is in between, so his start seems to be a little "floating", and his strength is not so strong.

But the results of the Portland Indoor Track and Field Championships proved that his future ability is not weak, just like the current state of the field-there is almost no gap between all the players in the first 10 meters, and everyone stepped over the 10 meters at almost the same time. rice noodles.

After 30 meters, he began to gradually lag behind the stronger Vicourt, Sibney, Meite and others.

At 60 meters, the front end is over and the back is coming. At this time, Vicourt is alone on the field, leading Ashmead, Sibney, and Meite by more than one body, while Xie Zhenye is half a step behind the three position.

But after 60 meters, Xie Zhenye also gradually accelerated to his extreme speed. Unlike the indoor 60 meters, he needed a longer acceleration distance in the 100 meters. He was originally a 200-meter special runner, and he was good at the latter part of the race.

60 meters, burst!

Xie Zhenye clung to Sibney and Meite who were beside him, not allowing them to draw any further distance from him!

From 60 meters to 80 meters, Ashmead began to be unable to support his own progress, and was gradually opened up by Sibney and Mei, while Xie Zhenye, who was biting the two, was also getting closer to Ashmead distance.

After 80, Harvey in the 9th track also showed his ability to catch up with Ashmead with Xie Zhenye. The competition on the field has entered a fierce stage!
For the last 10 meters, lean forward and press the line!

Yang Jian was very satisfied with Xie Zhenye's performance, "Xie Zhenye maintained a very good pace. He should be in the middle of the group, ranking fourth or fifth. Weicourt ran within 10 seconds, 9 seconds 95, Xie Zhenye's His results should be pretty good too, he bit the few players in front of him tightly in the back end, I feel like he is going to break his personal best again.”

Xie Zhenye supported his knees and looked at the big screen. He knew that he had no chance, but when he saw 9.95 displayed on the timer after crossing the finish line, he felt that he should have run very well.

After several sets of replays, the results of the first set were finally displayed on the big screen: (+0.2m/s)

1 Jimmy Waycott 9.95 Q
2 Ben Yusuf Meite 9.97 Q
3 Arcani-Sibini 9.98
4 Xie Zhenye 10.01 PB
5 Jacques Ali Harvey 10.03
Yang Jian laughed happily: "Oh~ 10 seconds, this player Xie Zhenye has really brought us surprises all the time. He refreshed his personal best time again, and improved from 01 seconds in the preliminaries. At 10 seconds 08, an improvement of 10 seconds! It’s great, and the future can be expected! Your mouth is really amazing, this person’s best score will be broken as soon as he breaks it!”

Liu Yi: "No, it's Xie Zhenye who strives for it, hahahaha~"

********
In the waiting room, Su Bingtian had already set off, because Wu Ziyi's appearance led to a change in the grouping of the semi-finals this time. Su Bingtian was originally in the third group, but now he has become the second group.It was also because of Wu Ziyi that Bromel, who was supposed to be in the same group with Bolt and De Grasse, went to Su Bingtian's second group.

Wu Ziyi is still worried about Su Bingtian. Su Bingtian's group is also extremely dangerous. If he wants to advance to the finals, he must perform at his best in the future.

The live broadcast camera turned and switched to the second group of live images.

Yang Jian: "The level of this group is really very high. We have already seen the performance of the first group. The current situation is that Sibney of South Africa is waiting to be replaced with a time of 9 seconds, so the No. .98 If you want to enter the finals with a relatively stable replacement, at least you can’t be worse than Sibini. Like this group, Gatlin, Blake, Brommel, Su Bingtian, I think these players are very good. It may directly raise the threshold of the final to 3 seconds."

"Su Bingtian ran under 10 seconds twice this year, but one time was a super-fast 9 seconds. He ran 92 seconds in the Diamond League London-London station, probably because the rest time was only one hour. Rio's hundred The rest time between the preliminaries and the rematch is more than 10 hours, we can only expect him to fully recover his physical strength in such a long period of time, and play perfectly."

The player introduction session begins:
"Track 2, James Dasaru from England."

Liu Yi: "Run 3, Su Bingtian, one of China's current 4-meter duo and a core member of the men's 100×[-]-meter relay team!"

"On the 4th track, Yohan Blake, who was known as the second fastest runner in the world at the time, Bolt's younger brother, experienced injuries and he returned to the stage of the World Series tenaciously."

"Track 5, Bahrain's player in 15, Kemari Brown, was a Jamaican before."

"On the 6th track, Justin Gatlin, the star of the bad country, this is the fourth time he has challenged Usain Bolt in the World Series after his comeback, but this year his opponent is not only Bolt, but also twice Defeat Wu Ziyi who has not played yet."

"Track 7, this is Asuka Jianqiao, a 93 teenager from Neon. His father is a Jamaican and his mother is a Neon man. He is of mixed race."

"Track 8, Cui Wang Brommel of Moldy Country. He tied for fourth with De Grasse of Ghana University last year. He is currently the group of young athletes in the world's sprint field second only to Wu Ziyi."

"On the 9th track, the famous French general Lemaitre, he is known as [Giraffe], and his line-pressing skills are very strong."

Yang Jian: "Su Bingtian shouldn't think too much about the results of the promotion, just give full play to his future abilities."

Liu Yi: "Yes, according to his 9 seconds this year, as long as he runs to about 95 seconds in the first 60 meters, and then resists in the back, he may even have a chance to directly enter the final!"

While the two were talking, the starter had issued the "On your marks" command, and Su Bingtian clasped his hands together to give himself a final boost, and walked forward.

The summer in Rio is very hot, and the humidity is relatively high. Su Bingtian wiped off the sweat overflowing from his palms on his pants, bowed his head and got ready.

"Set—"

It is this moment, whether to make history or come back four years later, it all depends on the 10 seconds after the gunshot!

If you zoom in to see Su Bingtian's starting posture, you will find that his arm placement is completely different from that of other athletes. Other athletes are either wide or narrow, but they are all straight arms.

Su Bingtian, he is a curved arm.

"boom--!!"

The moment after the gunshot, all eight athletes kicked off the starting block quickly, and the competition officially started!
"Puff puff—" Only three steps away from the start, the [-] spectators at the Havelange Stadium and the audience watching the live TV broadcast all over the world saw an athlete in a red jersey stand out from the crowd. Quickly rushed to the first place!
Su Bingtian's ultra-high-frequency scissors, when the other players stepped on the 10-meter line, he had already lifted his ninth step. fuck him!

由于镜头视角的缘故，在1、2、3这样外道的选手如果能在前程获得领先，他们所展现出来的效果会远比7、8、9道的选手来的夸张。

Not tall enough?Stride too short?Then I will use the most extreme frequency to fight with you!

In short, I just put all the energy in my body into the future, so I asked you to follow? !
Today, either I will be killed by everyone because of my poor future, or I will lead everyone to chaos in the future, either you will die or I will die!
At 30 meters, Su Bingtian was at least one position ahead of the other players!
40 meters, two exaggerated positions!
At 50 meters, Su Bingtian is about to reach his extreme speed. At this time, Gatlin, Blake and other players also increased their speed. Although they are still far from the extreme speed, their maximum speed must exceed Su Bingtian.

But Su Bingtian will still be able to maintain his advantage for a while. Blake and Gatlin are veterans who have been in the field for a long time. Only Su Bingtian, so he was honored to be messed up by Su Bingtian.

At 60 meters, Su Bingtian still maintained the first place, but at this time Blake and Gatlin were ready to enter the state of extreme speed, and they were ready to start chasing Su Bingtian.

At 75 meters, Su Bingtian ended his extreme speed. At this time, his body's energy supply has changed from the phosphagen system to the glycolysis system, and the speed will inevitably slow down.At the same time, Gatlin also tied with Su Bingtian, and Blake was only half a body away from Su Bingtian!
At 80 meters, Su Bingtian was overtaken by Gatlin. At 85 meters, Blake tied with Su Bingtian. However, Su Bingtian put great pressure on them in the first 80 meters. Although Su Bingtian slowed down at this time, he was desperate He gritted his teeth and was ready to fight them desperately.

They didn't dare to release the water, so they could only work hard to maintain their speed and prepare for the final sprint.

Yang Jian: "The game started! Su Bingtian started very fast! He quickly took the lead! Blake and Gatlin were chasing behind, but Su Bingtian kept it! Keep the ability for the last 20 meters! Press the line! Su Bingtian really Fight!"

刘翊却注意到了最后压线显示的成绩：“加特林9秒90！苏炳天把他逼到了9秒90，非常有机会！苏炳天和加特林的差距并不大，这一枪绝对进了9秒95！”

After Gatlin crossed the line, he saw the "9.90" displayed on the timer and shook his head. He expected that he would be able to advance when he ran around 9 seconds, but Su Bingtian put too much pressure on him in the future, and he had no choice but to He was able to follow up with all his strength, but he didn't dare to release water for the last 95 meters. He almost did everything except not pressing the line.

9 seconds 90, this is already a few shots he has played better this season. Thinking of the final an hour later, he is full of bitterness.

Su Bingtian was happy. Gatlin's ability to run 9 seconds meant that his own performance would not be bad. As long as he could run 90 seconds, he would almost certainly be able to make up for the promotion!

If he can't advance to the final in 9 seconds, he will eat the camera on the spot!
The [-] spectators at the scene were also anxiously waiting for the results, until the moment when the results were refreshed, they saw the Chinese athlete on the field kneeling down excitedly, looking up to the sky and screaming.

What was it that made him so excited?
1 Justin Gatlin 9.89 Q
2 Yohan Blake 9.91 Q
3 Su Bingtian 9.92 PB
4 Trivan Brommel 9.95
5 Lemaitre 9.99
Su Bingtian 9 seconds 92! ! !
