Chapter 139: Sensation
The final of the men's 100-meter dash is over. But the sensation caused by this competition slowly began to spread around the world.
In the history of track and field competitions, the top three results in the men's 100-meter final can be said to be the best results in history.
Since the opening of the World Championships, among the previous six World Championships finals, the closest and best result was the 3rd World Championships held in Tokyo, Japan in 1991.
At that year's World Championships, three athletes from the United States dominated the top three in the men's 100m final. Lewis's 9.86 seconds, Burrell's 9.88 seconds and Mitchell's 9.91 seconds also shocked the whole world. Let everyone fully understand the strength and domineering of American athletes in the men's sprint event. At the same time, Lewis's time of 9.86 seconds also set a new world record at that time.
However, the best result in the history of the Olympic Games was the last Atlanta Olympics in 1996.
The top three finishers in the men's 100-meter final belonged to three different countries. Bailey's 9.84 seconds, Fredericks' 9.89 seconds and Bolton's 9.90 seconds pushed the American sprinters out of the top three. And the Canadian flyer Bailey's time of 9.84 seconds also broke the world record of 9.85 seconds in Burrell, an American.
And just today, American athlete Green, Chinese athlete Guo Zizhao and Canadian veteran Su Lin once again created the best men's 100m final result in history. The results of 9.80 seconds, 9.83 seconds and 9.84 seconds not only made the world crazy, but also stunned some Western experts.
No way! There is actually a Chinese in the middle!
When did the yellow race actually step into the ranks of the world's top sprinters?
……
Although Guo Zizhao has achieved amazing results in the IAAF Grand Prix and the Golden League in the past six months. Although the championship has won a lot, there are always some racists who are reluctant to admit this fact. The fact that the Golden League and Grand Prix are still not high does not prove that the yellow race can also achieve impressive results at the top level.
However, Guo Zizhao's time of 9.83 seconds at the World Championships this time slapped them in the face.
It is estimated that they are also secretly rejoicing, fortunately, Guo Zizhao only won one runner-up this time, and if he wins the championship, it will be even more faceless. But even so, it made those guys restrain a lot. After all, Guo Zizhao has achieved such achievements at the age of 20 now, and no one can say what kind of achievements he will have in the future.
Everyone is not stupid, and in real life, there are not so many brain-dead idiots like in YY novels. As a public figure, you can also lose your job if you say the wrong thing. After all, in recent years, the call for anti-racial discrimination has also been quite popular in Europe. It's better not to get into trouble......
。。。。。。
At this time, in the hotel where the Japanese team was stationed, Fujita was also holding the video camera in his hand, and he was shouting excitedly while watching.
"See? Did you see that? This is Guo Zizhao's second rhythm! …… Look at what a big step this step is, how perfect it is! Coupled with this outstanding cadence, this has created a miracle of 9.83 seconds! 42 and a half steps...... Did you know? I've counted it 10 times, 42 and a half steps! ”
"Yaki God is above...... Fujita was intoxicated by his discovery, and muttered, "This is 1 step less than Green, which shows how big Guo Zizhao's advantage in stride is!" It would be wonderful if we athletes from the Great Japanese Empire had mastered such a rhythm. ”
"Well, Fujita-kun is right." Coach Yamamoto also immediately stood up and supported, "Since Guo Zizhao can do it, then there is no reason why our athletes can't do it." When I go back this time, I would suggest that Coach Fujita be in charge of this technical innovation. At that time, our Japanese sprinting skills will once again stand at the top of Asia. ”
"Well, Coach Yamamoto is right. We're really going to improve our current sprinting technique. However, with only a year to go until next year's Olympics, isn't there enough time to change your running skills? Another coach also agreed with Fujita's plan, but also raised a lot of concerns.
"No problem!" Fujita also said firmly, "We can also use this new rhythm as a surprise weapon first." Just like Guo Zizhao is now, he runs at a normal pace in the preliminaries, and he will not delay the daily competition. Wait until it's a crucial game and then change the pace. In this way, I think one year of training is enough! ”
"Good! In that case, I'll leave this matter to Fujita-kun. Yamamoto also made a final decision on this matter.
"It's a pleasure! Everything is for the sake of the Great Japanese Empire......" Fujita also responded with great ambition.
……
At this time, the hotel where the Chinese team stayed, it was even more lively.
After a short period of loss, Guo Zizhao also quickly adjusted. Isn't it just a runner-up, what's the big deal? With Lao Tzu's current state, he is about to catch up with Green, and when it comes to next year, Lao Tzu will not abuse him to death, haha......
Dad didn't see that Guo Zizhao was silently in YY, and thought that Guo Zizhao was sullen for the runner-up this time. So he also sat down and comforted his son.
"Baby, it's not a big deal. I didn't win the championship this time, so I just worked hard in the future. This time the result is already very good, 9.83 seconds, I didn't dare to think before the race! Hehe...... "Dad patted Guo Zizhao on the shoulder, "With this time's results, it will be much easier to improve in the future." You're still young, don't worry. ”
"That's it, that's it." Song Ping also comforted Guo Zizhao, "At the beginning of the year, at the Indoor World Championships, I only won a bronze medal in the 100 meters. This time the World Championships became a silver medal, and by the time it comes to next year's Olympics, it will be a gold medal! ”
"Hmm!" Guo Zizhao saw that everyone came to comfort him, and he also felt embarrassed, but he didn't expect that he was not at the right time, so he quickly got up and said, "I'm fine, everyone can rest assured." This time, I was able to perform exceptionally and am very happy with this result. Don't worry, it's really fine! ”
"That's good, that's good, then have a good night's rest. Tomorrow afternoon, I have to prepare for the 110m hurdles heats. ”
"Okay."
。。。。。。
However, Guo Zizhao is destined to have a bad rest. Because soon, all the members of the track and field team who got the news also came to Guo Zizhao's room to congratulate him after returning to the hotel.
Chen Yanhao even came up and gave Guo Zizhao a bear hug, and then squatted down and stroked Guo Zizhao's feet exaggeratedly, "Tut-tut...... That's a pair of feet that ran 9.83 seconds. This will have to be more touching, a little more blessing, so that I can run faster in tomorrow's race! ”
I'll go......
Guo Zizhao is also full of black lines, and Brother Chen's funny temperament is still so cute.
"Hey...... Brother Chen, I still have a pair of stinky shoes that ran 9.83 seconds. Why don't you use it as a pillow tonight? ”
"...... You get me farther away! ”
"Haha......"
In a burst of laughter from everyone, Zhou Wei looked a little lonely on the side.
Like Guo Zizhao, Zhou Wei has also slowly risen in the domestic arena since 1997. At last year's National Track and Field Grand Prix Finals, Zhou Wei ran the best time in history of 10.17 seconds. But at last year's Asian Championships and Asian Games, Zhou Wei also successfully won two bronze medals in the men's 100-meter sprint.
It can be said that in addition to Guo Zizhao, Zhou Wei is currently firmly in the second place in the men's 100-meter sprint in China. Although this seems to be infinite on the surface, if it is compared with Guo Zizhao, it is nothing. In competitive competitions, everyone always cares about who the first place is, who cares who you are, who is the second place? Just like now, everyone is talking about the "first brother" of domestic sprinting is Guo Zizhao, who would ask who the "second brother" is?
What makes Zhou Wei even more depressed is that not only is the fame difference between the two far away, but even the gap in grades is getting bigger and bigger. I've been about to cripple myself for half a year, but my best time still hasn't broken 10.17 seconds. This time in the World Championships, he only ran at the average level of 10.28 seconds. And Guo Zizhao's performance has improved rapidly to 9.83 seconds for more than a year.
This is simply a few grades worse, this is no longer the gap between the first and second brothers of domestic sprinting, this is simply the gap between the top international players and the second-rate players in Asia!
With such a gap, how could Zhou Wei not feel a huge sense of frustration......
