king of sprint

Chapter 126 400m Qualifiers
1 month 16 day.

Early in the morning.

Lu Xiaoyu got up.

The breakfast she prepared for Rousseau consisted of two mini fritters, two eggs, and the milk, not counting, the main thing was to put these together.

Rousseau looked at these after washing, and asked Lu Xiaoyu what it meant.

"This is 10 seconds 10~" Lu Xiaoyu said, "It's my brother's final 100-meter score in the Southern Guangdong National Games."

"That's just tying the National Games record." Rousseau said, "Put 10 seconds tomorrow, and wish me a breakthrough in the National Games record and the national record."

The National Games record is the national record, which is currently held by a senior from the capital team, with a score of 10 seconds.

……

1 month 16 day.

At 09:00 in the morning, the 400-meter preliminaries of the track and field events of the Southern Guangdong Provincial Games will be held.

At 18:30 in the afternoon, the 100-meter qualifier will be held.

The location is the main stadium, which is the Yangcheng Galaxy Stadium.

……

08:50 am.

When Rousseau walked on the 400-meter runway.

There are many people in the venue of ten thousand people cheering for him.

Now Rousseau is well-known in the domestic track and field circles.

The mainstream reputation is not small.

There are even more heated discussions about him on the Internet.

Whether it's a good reputation or a bad reputation, it's finally famous.

Every time someone mentions 'Pan Kai, the number one sprinter in China' on the Internet, there will always be someone who echoes 'Rousseau, the all-around hexagonal fighter'.

The sailors hired by Li Yan were very conscientious, but the results may not be as they expected, because they always felt that Rousseau and Pan Kai were made the first and second in the domestic sprint event by the momentum.

Today, that is, the 1-meter qualifiers on January 16 will be divided into two groups, and the 400-meter final will be held at 400:18 on the 19th.

Coincidentally, on the schedule, the 100-meter final will also be held at 18:18 pm on the 30th, with only 30 minutes between the two games.

Probably there are not too many players considering signing up for the 100-meter event and the 400-meter event at the same time.

This is also the case in the Olympic Games. The 400-meter event will always conflict with the 100-meter or 200-meter event. Many athletes will give up other events in order to ensure that they can successfully obtain a certain result.

Before Rousseau had the title of 'Little White Horse', he was planning to give up the 400-meter final, but now he can take care of it.

……

08:55 pm.

The first group of 400m qualifiers officially started.

This is the first time that Rousseau has officially participated in the outdoor 400-meter race.

His previous official grade on this subject was 0.

Of course, the Pengcheng Universiade due to injury (couldn't run) and retired from the game does not count.

The outdoor 400-meter terrain is simpler than indoors, so the result is faster.

Rousseau still has a lot of experience in the indoor 400-meter event, and it should be no problem to switch to the outdoor.

Before the game, Rousseau saw Xiao Qiang, who was assigned to the second group of the qualifiers. Across the crowd, Xiao Qiang gave Rousseau a thumbs up, and Rousseau gave him a thumbs back.

Rousseau jumped on the spot to cheer up his body and spirit.

"Prepare~"

Following the shout of the starter, eight athletes entered the ready position at the same time.

Still 'gaining momentum'.

boom!
World class start!

The power provided by 'gathering momentum' covered the 10 meters after the start, allowing Rousseau to complete the acceleration preparation faster.

Next, Rousseau, who was assigned to the outermost lane because he had no grades, staged a scene like Dugu seeking defeat. From the beginning to the end, no one overtook him. part, without any loss of speed.

Rousseau took the lead and won the place to enter the semi-finals with the first place.

The result was 46 seconds, 55 second faster than his indoor result.

Sure enough, running 400 meters outdoors is much more refreshing than running 400 meters indoors.

After Rousseau ran 400 meters, he met Lu Jinrong who came to pick him up. His pace was not tired, and he even seemed to be walking around. He was particularly outstanding among the tired runners who were panting on their knees.

All the audience who noticed this scene realized that this player didn't run with all his strength.

"Come on~"

When Rousseau passed by Xiao Qiang, who was about to play in the second group, he gave Xiao Qiang a high five.

Go down the field.

Rousseau suddenly noticed a figure.

That figure was standing at the door of the athlete's tunnel, wearing a full suit in such a hot weather, which seemed out of place with the coaches and athletes in T-shirts in the arena.

When Rousseau saw it, he only saw the back of that figure.

Li Yan...

Why is he watching the 400 meters?
Rousseau couldn't help thinking about it.

……

Li Yan is not the official coach of any of the athletes in this competition.

So he is considered an observer.

The same is true for Dong Zijian.

The two are now sitting in the staff lounge drinking coffee.

Li Yangang came back from watching Rousseau's race and commented, "Rousseau's 400 meters has the potential to break the domestic record."

"The National Games record is 45 seconds." Dong Zijian said, "Rousseau ran 80 seconds. It seems that he still has more energy. It's really amazing."

Yes, apart from being amazing, I don’t know how to express my feelings anymore.

100 meters, 200 meters, 400 meters?
"I don't understand him a bit, and I don't understand why he wants to run 400 meters." Li Yan said.

Dong Zijian knew what Li Yan meant. There was a time conflict between the 400m final and the 100m final, and it was difficult to take care of both.

"Maybe he will give up 400 meters because of 100 meters?" Dong Zijian guessed.

This is definitely not an option, don't forget the advertisement... So Li Yan shook his head: "Probably he needs an official result, after all, he has not had an official 400-meter result so far."

"Pan Kai does not agree to withdraw..." Dong Zijian mentioned this matter again.

"Well, Pan Kai is very proud. The possibility of agreeing to retire is very small, but don't worry, I have already arranged it." Li Yan said.

"Arrangement... what arrangement?" Dong Zijian asked.

"Coach Dong, do you really want to know?" Li Yan asked meaningfully.

"...Forget it." Dong Zijian shook his head.

Li Yan is like a black hole that can swallow all the people who are close to him, and pollute them with his purely utilitarian thoughts and will. The longer we get along, the more terrifying he feels.

"We must protect Pan Kai's commercial value." Li Yan said.

"What if it can't be protected?" Dong Zijian couldn't help asking.

"Then change people." Li Yan said, "I especially like a saying in your country, 'Change people without changing ideas'. Unfortunately, Rousseau doesn't agree with me. He and I should be the same kind of people. .”

……

18:00 PM.

The 100m qualifiers are about to begin.

The reason why the 100-meter qualifiers are scheduled at this time.

It is to achieve a balanced result between the commercial value and the best physical strength time of the players.

After all, the 100m is the most watched event in track and field.

none of them.

"Are you nervous?" Ruan Mei asked Rousseau.

"You are more nervous than I am." Rousseau said with a smile.
