Following in Bolt's footsteps

Chapter 334 Let's Fight, Let's Fight! 【Ask monthly ticket】

Yang Jian: "The third group of the men's 100m semi-final is also the group of death that we recognized before the game. In this group, there are a total of three preliminaries and the world record holder - Wu Ziyi!"

David Liszt: "At this moment, we hope that Beck can withstand the pressure and forget about Brommel's poor performance. As of now, the replacement threshold for the final is 9 seconds 99, which should be easy for Beck. Achieved. Easy, easy."

……

The high jump final is in full swing, but Gianmarco Tenberi is a little distracted at the moment, because his eyes have already looked at the men's [-]-meter start area at the other end of the stadium, where there is an Italian national team in blue The bald athletes in team uniforms are running a test run.

The height of 2 meters can be easily surpassed by Turnberry, but his brother, Lamont Marcel Jacobs, may not be able to deal with it calmly like him.

If the high jump final is the show between him and Balshim, then the short 100 meters is the absolute field of the Chinese flying man. He is the world record holder and the object that all sprinters need to look up to. He is a veritable world King of!
Marcel, my brother, may the Sicilian winds blow to this distant winter capital and help you soar.

In the [-]-meter starting area, Wu Ziyi moved his body lightly with a relaxed expression. On his right hand is Jacobs, the "bald flying man" who set the Italian national record twice this season.

Then there are Wu Ziyi’s old acquaintance Ronnie Baker, the “fourth brother of the West” Sibini, Jikindu Uja from England, especially Sibini from the 7th track. Wu Ziyi has played against him since 15 Now, we are very familiar with each other.

The third group of the semi-finals is a veritable "death group", not to say how difficult it is to advance. For Wu Ziyi, Jacobs, Ronnie Baker and Sibney, 9 seconds 99 is really not difficult.

The difficulty is that the four top players at the time were squeezed into this group. Once one of them exerted his full strength for a stable promotion, the other three would be brought into a reluctant rhythm.

The interval between the semi-finals and the final is only two hours. If too much physical energy is consumed here, the final will fall into a situation where there is more energy than energy.

"Track 2, Jason Rogers of St. Kitts and Nevis Islands, his time in the heats was 10 seconds."

"Track 3, this is Paul Camilo from Brazil, with a preliminary score of 10 seconds."

"Track 4, Wu Ziyi, the Chinese flying man who set a world record of 2019 seconds at the 9 Doha World Championships!"

"On the 5th track, the Italian flying man Lamont Jacobs. This year's European Indoor Championships 60-meter champion, this year's performance is very amazing. Last month, he beat Ronnie Baker and Sibini in the Diamond Chain Monaco station Waiting for others, ran a time of 9 seconds and won the championship."

"Track 6, Ronnie Baker from Moldy Country. Baker is the second-ranked player in PB in this group. He ran 2018 seconds in the 9 Diamond League Eugene Station, and is No.83 in this year's National Trials .”

"Track 7, this is the famous South African player we are very familiar with - Akani Sibini. He set a new African record at the Hungarian Athletics Grand Prix one month before the Olympic Games, with a PB of 9 seconds."

"No. 8, Jikindu Uja, he is the first bat of the English 4×100m relay team."

"Track 9, Arthur Cisse from Côte d'Ivoire, with a preliminaries time of 10 seconds."

Behind the starting block, Wu Ziyi listened to the sparse cheers and applause from the other end of the stadium, and occasionally heard the neon spectators cheering like "Black Chicken Sang Ganba Daddy".

Although it seemed a little deserted, I was very happy to hear these cheering shouts.

From officially embarking on the professional path in 2014 to the present, he has been honed one after another, and he has long been trained to be fearless and calm.

Whether it was the mountains and tsunami in the past, or the current sparseness, it can't affect his mentality.

“On your marks~”

The order to get in place was issued, and the already quiet stadium became even quieter.

"Wu Ziyi, Ronnie Baker, Sibney, this game is also after the London station of the 2018 Diamond League, the three of them will compete on the same field again. We thought they would definitely meet in the final of the Doha World Championships, but it is a pity that Luo Ni Baker fell into a trough due to injury in 2019, and in the end he only won No.4 in the US Championships and missed the Doha World Championships."

Today, at the Dongjing National Stadium, these three world top sports from different countries and different continents met again on the [-]-meter track.I look forward to them being able to bring us a wonderful contest before the [-]-meter trapeze showdown! "

In the voice of Yang Jian's commentary, the domestic audience saw the eight athletes stepping on the running aids, and their eyes were all focused on Wu Ziyi in the fourth lane.

The Olympic Games is a grand sports event for human beings. Many viewers who are not familiar with track and field will also watch this fast and passionate battle at this time. For them, it doesn't matter who Ronnie Baker and Sibney are, and they don't care about Ronnie. Whether Baker was injured or fell into a trough, what they care about is Wu Ziyi, who has already represented the spirit of the Chinese people to a large extent.

What they expected was to see Wu Ziyi successfully advance to the final, and then cross the finish line first in the final and become the Olympic champion.

"Set—"

"boom--!!"

The starting gun sounded, and the game began!
Perhaps it was really fate, Su Bingtian ranked first in the group in the preliminaries, so he was not divided into the third group of the semi-finals like in his previous life. Instead, Wu Ziyi, who was running and playing in the preliminaries, walked the way of Su Bingtian's previous life.

Wu Ziyi is the kind of person who will constantly examine himself before the game, and even question himself, but once the gunfire sounds, he will put everything aside.

In the competitive arena, there may be two "winners", such as Tanberry and Barshim at the other end of the stadium, and if nothing else, they will share the precious high jump gold medal.

But Wu Ziyi would not allow such a thing to happen, even if the person beside him was his idol, the man named Usain Bolt.

Jacobs, Ronnie Baker, and Sibney, like Wu Ziyi, also represent the highest level of their respective countries. In such a high-level competition, Wu Ziyi would never dare to be like Bolt If he let the water go casually like that, he must control the rhythm in his own hands!
Crank the arms to start, kick and stretch, swing the arms, start, connect, and accelerate!
In this group, except for Jason Rogers in the second lane, the starting feet of the other players are all left feet. In this case, the difference in stride frequency and stride length between them will be more obvious.

right, left, right, left, right, left, right, left
Wu Ziyi took eight steps powerfully, while Jacobs, Ronnie Baker and Sibney also took eight steps, but with the same eight steps, Wu Ziyi had traveled more than 12 meters, and they All three of them only reached 11 meters.

From 2014 to 2019, the more refined Wu Ziyi's technology is, the smaller the pace.At first, when he deliberately imitated Bolt, his 41.5-meter steps were only 2018 steps. Later, in order to improve his performance, he gradually reduced the number of steps. It was not until 43 that he stabilized to [-] steps.

The stride has been shortened, but 43 steps per [-] meters is still a stride type. With the same stride frequency in the first eight steps, Wu Ziyi can naturally take the lead with the same number of steps.

Ten meters, 20 meters, 30 meters...

Usually, in the forward acceleration stage of the first 30 meters, it is not easy to distinguish the front and rear positions between players.

Especially because of the camera angle of the live TV broadcast, it is difficult for ordinary track and field viewers to tell which athlete is leading or lagging behind in a very short period of time.

However, during the third group of the men's 100m semi-final at the Beijing Winter Olympics, the audience quickly saw a figure running out of the queue, that person - wearing a red uniform!
Yang Jian, who was explaining on the spot, had a very clear mind and reacted quickly after the gunshot:

"The game has started! Wu Ziyi's start, leading a little bit, the other players are almost lined up, neck and neck!"

The actual situation on the field cannot be explained clearly and clearly in just 10 seconds, especially when Yang Jian said the word "neck and neck", it is best to understand it as "the gap is within one within the stature".

For example, in the state of "neck and neck" at this time, Jason Rogers in the second lane is actually half a body ahead of the others, and Arthur Cisse is also behind the others, Jacobs, Ronnie Baker , Sibini, and Uja are really neck and neck, and the gap between them is extremely small.

Driven by Wu Ziyi, the other players also had to put in their best efforts. In such a death group in the semi-finals, if you want to guarantee advancement, you can't take chances, and it is impossible to hold back.

40 meters, 50 meters, 60 meters...

From entering the high-speed running stage on the way to entering the extreme speed state, Wu Ziyi is still constantly widening the distance from other competitors in this 30-meter interval.

This is the first time for Jacobs to face Wu Ziyi, the king of the world. Although he knows that Wu Ziyi's first 60-meter limit has reached 6 seconds, but that is just data on paper. Until now he has truly realized this. How scary is the data.

在这个恐怖的6秒30之后，是与博尔特并列历史第一的后40米3秒27，雅各布斯觉得自己的极限肯定不止9秒89，但哪怕自己能够跑到9秒80，哪怕自己的后40米能开3秒40，后程也绝对只能跟在吴子义身后吃尾气。

Can’t compare, really can’t compare, Jacobs resisted and turned his attention to Ronnie Baker on the right. Now he can only keep hinting to himself in his heart, and completely remove Wu Ziyi’s figure from his mind. Throwing away from the middle, he completely regarded this shot as an arena between himself and Ronnie Baker.

Come on Ronnie Baker, I beat you once in Monaco a month ago, you must want revenge?

Come on, Ronnie Baker!Come beat me!

In competitive sports, it is unrealistic to be free from the influence of others, even if it is a 10-meter race as short as [-] seconds.

Maybe two people who don't know each other well in this world really know each other. Ronnie Baker was not surprised by Wu Ziyi's performance at all, and he was already prepared to deal with this situation.

He is adjacent to Jacobs, and he can judge the position of Jacobs even before he starts to raise his head and enter the mid-run stage, so he has been at a stalemate with himself from the start to the mid-run. Italian, his response was:
war!
Ronnie Baker didn't know whether Wu Ziyi would release the water in the end, but he knew that if he didn't try his best to compete with Jacobs, if he didn't run to 9 seconds and failed to advance to the final, he would regret it all his life!
He was born in 1993, and he will have his 28th birthday in two months. He has already missed the World Championships in Doha once, and he is determined not to miss the Olympic Games again.

At this moment, he no longer cared how much of his strength he could show in the final. A voice kept echoing in the depths of his mind: "To the final, Baker, you must make it to the final!"

come!Jacobs, I want to defeat you!
The strong desire to compete drives every player on the field. At this moment, they all have the same desire and belief in their hearts - to run into the Olympic finals!

70 meters, 80 meters, 90 meters...

After entering 80 meters, Wu Ziyi finally started to slow down. At this moment, countless eyes from all over the world were focused on him. They were waiting for this Chinese athlete who symbolized the limit of human beings to cross the finish line in an invincible posture. wanted to see the moment the timer paused, and then, they saw
Jacobs and Ronnie Baker also saw it, but Wu Ziyi's gesture didn't affect them at all. At this moment, they only had each other in their hearts.

They don't want to miss any chance to enter the final, and they don't want to hand over their future to fate. They must enter the Olympic [-]-meter final!

The last ten meters, five meters......

Wu Ziyi opened his arms when he crossed the 90-meter line, and once again turned his head to look at the moon, and was the first to pass the finish line gracefully.

Behind him, Jacobs and Ronnie Baker slanted one path to the right and the other to the left. At the final moment of pressing the line, their arms hit together, and they crossed the finish line side by side with a degree that was indistinguishable to the naked eye.

“9秒73！吴子义以回头望月的方式轻松的通过了终点，这是奥运会男子百米项目百年历史以来，第一个在半决赛中就突破9秒80、甚至是9秒75的成绩！而且9秒73啊，在这之前的本年度世界最好成绩是霉国选手布罗梅尔创造的9秒77，而现在，吴子义在半决赛就直接用回头望月的方式将他远远的甩在了脑后！”

"This is the king of the world!"

When the number "9.73" appeared on the timer, the reporters and referees who were used to seeing big scenes behind the finish line couldn't sit still. This was an exaggerated scene they had never seen before. It was truly unprecedented!
Although the reporters could not put down the cameras in their hands, they still used their cheers and shouts to pay their respects to Wu Ziyi, 9 seconds 73, and after the result was approved, they would be able to film this unprecedented result up.

Wu Ziyi didn't linger, no matter the final score was 9 seconds or something else, he was already determined to advance, and now all he needs to do is to leave a handsome and unrestrained back for his opponents.

Jacobs, Ronnie Baker, Sibney, Uja, Arthur Cisse, Rodgers, Camillo, none of them left, maybe some of them already had a premonition of their end, but they I still want to see with my own eyes the results of my hard work.

This is the result of how much sweat they swayed!

Gianmarco Temberi's heart was finally relieved. When he saw Marcel and Ronnie Baker crossing the line at the same time, and the finish timer showed 9 seconds, he knew Marcel would be able to enter the race. It's the final.

Turning his thoughts back, he faced the crossbar he loved again. Next, he and his opponents will challenge the height of 2 meters 27.

At the moment when Turnberry turned around, the big screen hanging above the auditorium finally refreshed the results of the third group of the men's 100m semi-final:
