Sprint: This champion is a bit weird

Chapter 17 Director Feng, I don’t want to lose again!

As expected, Wen Hao was sprayed again.

There are too many filial sons in Europe and America these days. Who can Wen Hao afford to offend?
  This answer would be better if it were Liu Xiang. After all, he has really defeated European and American athletes in straight track events.

But you, a little Wenhao, with a PB of only 10 seconds, who has never even participated in an international competition, and who is not ranked among the top ten in history in China, actually try to challenge our European and American daddies?

I’m giving you face, right? !
  Feng Shuyong was very upset about this and believed that he had not made good arrangements and should accompany Wen Hao in person for interviews to avoid these highly controversial questions and answers.

When you applied for an interview with your stupid New Financial News, the interview script they produced was not like this!
  So you ended up playing vaginally with me?

Come to deceive and attack a seventeen-year-old minor?

Based on this incident, Feng Shuyong held a meeting with his colleagues at the track and field center, and then made a decision: to add the New Financial News to the national track and field team's interview blacklist.

If you don’t want to be interviewed, then don’t do it! ——
  Time passed backward and came to the evening of November 11rd.

Due to the small number of participating teams, many events in track and field events only involve one final round, so the progress of the schedule is very fast, and the entire schedule can be completed on only the third competition day.

The men's 17×30m final, which will be held at 4:100, is a game that the audience is looking forward to.

The online scolding war against Wen Hao's "arrogant remarks" had no impact on the audience who came to watch the game in Omen.

While discussing Liu Xiang's easy victory yesterday, track and field fans started discussing a new topic: Can the current Chinese relay team break the national record?

中国4×100米接力项目的纪录，创造于10年前的哥德堡世锦赛，成绩是38秒81。

Some track and field fans who like to collect data compared the members of these two relay teams who were separated by 10 years:

Li Xiaoping 10.5x - Lin Wei 10.3x - Huang Danwei 10.3x - Chen Wenzhong 10.3x;

Wen Yongyi 10.4x - Hu Kai 10.3x - Pang Guibin 10.3x - Wen Hao 10.3x.

The comparison of data does not take personal best results, but the normal results of these eight players that year. Among them, Wen Hao has less data and just won the championship a few days ago and set a PB, so he is also considered to have 10.3x strength.

From a configuration point of view, this year's Chinese relay team is slightly stronger than the Chinese team that set the national record 10 years ago.

And these two national relay teams, which are separated by ten years, have one thing in common: there are two Guangxi athletes in the team.

Chinese sprinting in the 90s belonged to the "Guangxi duo" era of Lin Wei + Chen Wenzhong. At that time, Chinese sprinting once suppressed neon sprinting.

It was not until the ages of Lin Wei and Chen Wenzhong gradually increased, and in the late 90s when Ito Koji, Ayahara Nobuharu and others gradually emerged that Chinese sprinting was surpassed and suppressed by Neon.

What domestic track and field fans are looking forward to is whether this Chinese relay team can break the national record that has been dusty for ten years, and whether it can defeat the neon relay team that has been extremely strong since the late 90s.

"Friends in the audience, let us follow the camera to the Omen Stadium to watch the track and field event of this East Asian Games - the final of the men's 4×100 meter relay"

At 17:25, CCTV Sports Channel switched the original live broadcast from the Olympic Swimming Pool, which is responsible for aquatics events, to the Omen Stadium, which is responsible for track and field events.

The men's 100-meter final two days ago happened to coincide with the quarter-finals of football - the Chinese team vs. the South Korean team, so it was only rebroadcast at midnight and the next morning.

Today, because it just didn’t happen to be a hot event, and because Wen Hao’s victory did bring a certain degree of popularity to the sprint event, CCTV 4 decided to broadcast the men’s 100× meter event.

Well, that’s right, broadcast.

Yang Jian himself did not provide live commentary at the Omen Stadium. So far, CCTV has only broadcast the men's 110-meter hurdles final live.

In the TV screen, Wen Hao, who had refreshing short hair, was waiting for the start of the game with his hands on his hips. When he saw his figure appearing on the big screen, he smiled brightly at the camera.

There was a burst of cheers that were not very enthusiastic, but at least it could be seen that he was beginning to have his own supporters.

"This morning, an interview from the New Financial News caused a lot of heated discussion in the track and field circle, and the center of this heated discussion is the seventeen-year-old genius who represents China's track and field competition. juvenile.

Frankly speaking, I rarely see young people as confident as him in China. He is not blindly arrogant, but can cite a lot of professional knowledge to discuss his views. However, there are some people who always feel from the bottom of their hearts that what the West says is right, and the Chinese are just not as good as Europeans and Americans.

If this is really the case, then Liu Xiang will not defeat the other heroes in the Athens Olympics and become a god in one battle!
  Of course, compared to Liu Xiang, Wen Hao still has a long way to go, and Chinese sprinters also have a long way to go.

Before realizing the vision of opening the 10-second mark, we should probably focus on raising the national record to less than 10 seconds, first gradually catch up with the height of neon sprint, and then try a higher level of competition.』

At 17:30, all players on the field were ready.

Lane 3, Macau, China team;
  Lane 4, South Korean team;
  Lane 5, Chinese Taipei team;
  Lane 6, Team Neon;
  Lane 7, Chinese team;
  Lane 8, China Xiangjiang Team.

There are six teams in total. In terms of paper strength, the Chinese team’s only opponent is the Neon team.

However, if the China and Neon teams make major mistakes during the game, and the Xiangjiang team and the Taipei team perform well, it is not impossible to achieve a counterattack.

"come on!"

"Come on Team China!"

"Fuck Little Neon!"

All kinds of strange cheers sounded in the stadium, some of which were not suitable for broadcast.

"On your marks!"

The instructions were given to everyone, and the eight athletes in charge of the first leg began to move, while the athletes in charge of the next three poles also nervously looked towards the starting point of the first leg.

The noise in the stadium gradually stopped, and the first runners finally got a relatively quiet starting environment.

"The relay battle is about to begin. Although we occupy the top two in the 100-meter event, the neon relay team has maintained a world-class level over the years and is not easy to beat.

In addition, the running-in time of this national relay team is very short, especially for Wen Yongyi and Hu Kai in the first and second batons, and Hu Kai and Pang Guibin in the second and third batons. They are all working together as a team for the first time.

The handover process can be more conservative and don't drop the stick. Come on, Team China! 』

On the track, Wen Yongyi held the baton tightly in his right hand, stepped steadily onto the starting block, and got ready to start.

The East Asian Games was his first time competing in an intercontinental event as a member of the national relay team.

This competition is not easy. His opponent is Neon’s national championship champion this year, Oda Shinya, with a personal best time of 10 seconds (-33m/s).

In terms of PB, Wen Yongyi is only 0.01 seconds behind him, but the PB of 10 seconds 34 was already last year, and this year he is only at the 10.4x level.

The pressure is really quite big.

"Set——"

finally come.

Although there is a lot of pressure, once you step on the field, you can only go all out!

"Snapped--!"

The starting gun rings! Wen Yongyi quickly broke into action!
  As the new national 60-meter record holder, Wen Yongyi's ability to start and accelerate is quite good.

The level of 10.4x seems a bit weak, but it is completely enough to compete in the East Asia Division!
  "Game start!
  Look at the start of the Chinese team - Wen Yongyi started very quickly. He was almost catching up with the outsider Xiangjiang team when he was less than 80 meters away! 』

Among the six players in the first round, Wen Yongyi really has no opponent except Oda Shinya, and the visual effect is extremely obvious.

Among the four outsiders from China's Xiangjiang team, except for the second-placed player Tang Yichun, who ran a personal best of 2 seconds this year, the other players, including Deng Yijun who made it to the 10-meter final of the National Games, all ran in 41 seconds. 10 seconds away.

Even Ye Shaoqiang, who ranked first, had a personal best time of only 10 seconds. Wen Yongyi relied entirely on his peers to set him off.

"OK! Wen Yongyi gained a big lead in the first leg, but the Neon team did not fall behind in the first leg. Let's see who can go more smoothly in the handover of the first and second legs! 』

The second pre-run area.

Hu Kai took note of Wen Yongyi's outstanding performance. Seeing Wen Yongyi not falling behind when facing the Neon National Champion, Hu Kai became even more motivated!

"Look at the handover of the first and second sticks - the Chinese team's handover went very smoothly. It's Hu Kai versus Kawabata Shingo on the court!
  The runner-up versus the third runner-up, the advantage is mine! 』

In the pre-run area of ​​the third leg,

Pang Guibin was extremely nervous. From his perspective, the first two games between the Chinese team and the Neon team were evenly matched. So what happens next?
  The fourth match after that was Wenhao's match against Nobuharu Asahara, who was in poor form in the 100-meter event.

Theoretically speaking, unless Nobuharu Asahara dreams of returning to the Athens Olympics, it will be difficult to defeat Wenhao in his prime.

Therefore, the pressure of the whole team was concentrated on Pang Guibin!
  And his opponent in the third leg was another top sprinter in Asia, the men's 200m bronze medalist at the Paris World Championships and the creator of the Asian record of 20 seconds - Shingo Suetsugu!
  When he thought of the name of this great god, Pang Guibin's originally very concentrated attention became involuntarily trance-like.

When he woke up again, Hu Kai had already rushed closer!

No time to think too much!

Pang Guibin turned around in a hurry and started running. After running six steps, he habitually reached back and prepared to take the baton. What was waiting for him was Hu Kai's anxious shout:

"Slow down! Slow down!"

"Coming to the third round, Pang Guibin will face Asia's 200-meter king Sutsugo Shingo!"

Let’s start! accelerate! Oops - the Chinese team made a mistake!
  Pang Guibin's handover slowed down a bit, but Shenwu had already set off, and he quickly left Pang Guibin behind! 』

Seeing this sudden scene on the field, the Chinese audience immediately sighed and even wailed.

In the flash of lightning, the two teams that were originally evenly matched were now suddenly widened.

Sutsugo Shingo was already in a "no man's land" on the curve. Whether they were opponents from the inside or outside, they were all left behind.

There is a certain strength gap between Pang Guibin and Suxu Shenwu, and the handover starts early, so he must first slow down to receive Hu Kai's stick, and then accelerate a second time.

If the opponent is only the South Korean team, Taipei team or Xiangjiang team, maybe Pang Guibin can recover some of the speed loss caused by this small mistake with his personal strength.

But what he faced was Suetsu Shingo, the strongest and best in the Neon team!

In the pre-run area of ​​the fourth leg, Wen Hao was really anxious at the moment.

There may indeed be a strength gap between Pang Guibin and Suxu Shenwu, but the gap definitely shouldn't be so big!

With his keen sense, he quickly reacted: there was a mistake in the handover of the second and third sticks!

If you are not careful, you may lose everything.

All he can do now is to avoid his own handover mistakes as much as possible, pray that the Neon team will make mistakes in the third and fourth shots, and then seize the opportunity to make a killing blow.

Although the possibility is extremely low.

While Pang Guibin was still sprinting hard, Sutsu Shenwu had already entered the handover area.

"In the fourth leg, the Neon team was the first to complete the handover, followed closely by the Chinese team!

The gap is a bit big, but Wen Hao has not given up, he is still trying to catch up! 』

In the Omen Stadium, more than 10,000 Chinese spectators were shouting at the top of their lungs. They clenched their fists and waved towards the stadium, hoping for a miracle to happen.

The fiery red figure that symbolizes China is now trying its best to catch up with the opponent with a huge lead in front, and it is visible to the naked eye that it is continuing to make up the gap.

But as the end drew closer, people's expectations were finally dashed.

In the broadcast room, Yang Jian suppressed his frustration and continued to explain dutifully.

"Unfortunately, the Chinese relay team failed to defeat the neon relay team in the end. This is the case for team events. Whether it is the overall strength or the tacit understanding of cooperation, the Chinese team does have a certain gap from the neon team.

The neon relay team we saw successfully reached the finals of this year's World Championships in Helsinki. However, our Chinese team did not even get a ticket for the World Championships. Losing to them was expected. It makes sense.

But we don’t need to be discouraged, because this national relay team is temporarily formed, and their running-in time from the National Games to now is less than two weeks.

We can see the potential of these players, and they still have a lot of room for improvement. Next year's Doha Asian Games, the 07 Osaka World Championships, and the 08 Yanjing Olympics, they still have a long time to get used to it. Prepare.

I hope that in every game in the future, they can keep today's lessons in mind and do a good job in every aspect down-to-earth. Come on, Team China! 』

The game is over, and the Chinese team lost to the Neon team.

As the focal point of the team, Wen Hao received treatment he had never experienced before after crossing the finish line.

More than a dozen reporters were holding long guns and cannons, shooting wildly at his face, and some even couldn't wait to ask all kinds of pointed questions.

Ya Lei!

When I won the 100-meter championship two days ago, I didn't see you guys being so active?

You're all waiting to see a joke, right?
  Fortunately, Feng Shuyong made preparations in advance and rushed into the field with his people. Wen Hao also cooperated and pretended to be exhausted. Feng Shuyong immediately picked up his arm and shouted to the reporters around him:
  "Get out of the way! Don't you see people fainting? Doctor! Doctor!!"

While shouting, Feng Shuyong helped Wen Hao escape from the reporters' pursuit.

Arriving at the lounge, Wen Hao naturally let go of Feng Shuyong, pulled up a chair, sat on it, and leaned against the wall.

"It's normal to lose the game. You are still young and you have to learn to accept defeat. You rest first and I will deal with the media. I will go to the award ceremony with Hu Kai and the others later."

After Feng Shuyong finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to leave.

"Director Feng."

A call made Feng Shuyong stop.

Wen Hao breathed a few rough words and said in a rather determined tone: "I don't want to lose again."
