44.50 seconds, a new Asian record, is the Asian record for the 400-meter dash.

The general public may think that this is a remarkable result, but it may not sound as dazzling as the Asian record of the 100-meter dash, but veteran sports people know that the gold content of the 400-meter dash record may be higher than that of the 100-meter dash.

The 400-meter dash requires technique, body, speed, and more importantly, there will be too many uncertainties in the 400-meter dash, Oman's 44.56 seconds in the eyes of Asians is already an insurmountable number, and today's Zhang Guan suddenly increased this number by 0.06 seconds.

The audience began to carnival, and even started to play with people. It can be said that 100% of the spectators at the scene are here for Zhang Guan's 400-meter debut, and they are looking forward to Zhang Guan's 400-meter debut to run a good result, and now Zhang Guan has broken the Asian record, which is undoubtedly a satisfactory answer.

Zhang Guan waved to the spectators around him at the finish line, and at the same time, a prompt appeared in the system: "The first athlete who runs within 100 meters in 10 seconds, 200 meters in 20 seconds, and 400 meters in 45 seconds will be rewarded with three skill points!" ”

"There can also be a reward for this, and it's three points!" Zhang Guan's heart was suddenly happy, he knew that there were rewards for breaking records, there were rewards for winning championships, and there were rewards for winning all six stops of the Golden League, but he didn't expect that there would be rewards for achieving such something similar to an achievement.

"It seems that achievement is also a kind of honor." Zhang Guan thought silently.

The honor reward of the East Asian Games has attenuation, and the champion has only one skill point reward, but the Asian record will not be attenuated, so there are still two points, that is to say, Zhang Guan won a total of six skill points in the two games, plus the three points that he just won the achievement honor, Zhang Guan has already obtained nine skill points, except for six points for learning flexibility and coordination. Instead, Zhang Guan earned three skill points, and tomorrow, Zhang Guan will have a 4x100m relay race.

……

"He broke the Asian record twice in two days, and he also became the first sport in the world to run under 10 seconds in the 100 meters, under 20 seconds in the 200 meters and under 45 seconds in the 400 meters." Zhang Guan's news was still playing on the TV.

Takano Jin looked at the replay of the game on the TV and said, "Coach, I still can't figure out why Zhang Guan's final sprint was so fast, the 300-meter fast run. The physical reserve should consume a lot of energy, and the sprint speed shown by Zhang Guan is not at all like he has just finished 300 meters, but like he has just finished 100 meters, which is not scientific! ”

But the facts are in front of you, Zhang Guan's last physical reserves are indeed abundant! We can only think that Zhang Guan is very good at physical strength! Kobayashi Keiwa said.

"And I still have a question, since Zhang Guan's physical reserves are very sufficient, why didn't he run faster before, he could have chosen to use other running methods. For example, a running style similar to Michael Johnson, which sprints at 250 meters; Another example is the traditional running method of speeding up both straights. Takano continued.

"yes, if I had that much stamina for him, I'd have run like Varina. After all, Varina's running style is considered to be the most advanced in the world at the moment. But Zhang Guan didn't do that, his running style looks like a retro running style from the last century, which has disappeared for more than half a century! When Kobayashi Keiwa said this, there was a strange look in his eyes: "So I think." Zhang Guan is not using that retro running style, but a new running style! ”

"A new way to run?" Takano was taken aback.

Kobayashi Keiwa nodded very seriously: "Yes, it must be a new way of running!" And it is likely to be a running style that is very suitable for the yellow physique. This running style can save physical strength in the early stage and can avoid the shortcomings of the lack of explosiveness of the yellow race. I think if we can learn this new way of running, then our 400-meter sprint in Japan will definitely rise! ”

"This ......" Gao Ye Jin hesitated, after all, he was a professional 400-meter sprinter, and he had also run a high-level result within 45 seconds, with Gao Yejin's professional judgment, Zhang Guan did not use a new running method, but a simple physical fitness demon.

However, the unique Japanese tradition of respect and humility made Takano Shin still silent, Kobayashi Keikazu is the head coach after all, and Takano Shin, as a subordinate, cannot question the judgment of his boss.

"Takano-kun, after returning to Japan, we have to carefully analyze every movement of Zhang Guan in the 400-meter sprint, including every step, and we have to collect as much information as possible about Zhang Guan's 400-meter run, we have to study Zhang Guan's new running method, and then learn! Even in the future, we can improve on the basis of Zhang Guan! The more Keikazu Kobayashi spoke, the more excited he became, and the more he talked, the more outrageous he became.

Since then, Japan's 400-meter sprint has embarked on a road of no return......

……

In the 4x100m relay event, the national team sent a four-person lineup of Hu Kai, Jin Ke, Yang Yao and Zhang Guan. As for the Japanese team, since Shingo Sueji and Nobuharu Asahara, it was obviously impossible for a few young athletes to defeat the Chinese team, so in the end, the national team won another gold medal in the 4 x 100 meters.

So far, in the men's track and field event, the gold medals in the five track and field short events of 100 meters, 200 meters, 4 by 100 meters, and 110 meters hurdles have all been included in the national team.

Next, after Zhang Guan returned to the capital to participate in the East Asian Games Commendation Conference, he asked for a leave of absence from the Athletics Management Center and immediately flew to Los Angeles in the United States.

The WTA Finals will be held in Los Angeles on November 7, the final WTA tournament of the year, and the total prize money is also $3 million, including $1 million for the champion.

Last year's WTA Finals was won by Sharapova, so Sharapova is the defending champion.

The right to participate in the WTA Finals is based on the official WTA rankings, and only the top eight players can enter the year-end finals, this year's Williams sisters have missed a lot of games due to leg and knee injuries, so they are relatively behind in points, and Henin is also absent due to injury, and world No. 9 Dementieva came on as a substitute for Henin.

The other six contestants are Davenport of the United States, Petrova of Russia, Schneider of Switzerland, Clijsters of Belgium, Mauresmo and Pierce of France. Davenport of the United States and Clijsters of Belgium are currently the top two players in the WTA rankings, and the gap between the two is not large. Sharapova, who finished third, was more than 600 points behind them, essentially bidding farewell to the race for the top spot in the semi-annual rankings.

The WTA Finals is a single-group tournament in which eight players are divided into two groups, with the top two teams advancing to the semi-finals and the winner competing for the title. Sharapova was in the same group as Davenport, Schneider and Petrova.

In the group stage, Sharapova defeated Switzerland's Schneider 2-1 and then defeated American Davenport with the same overall score, but in the third round, she lost to Petrova due to a recurrence of an old chest injury. In the semi-finals, Sharapova will face Mauresmo. However, she had 39 voluntary errors in the whole game, and finally reached the semi-finals.

Since this event is held in Los Angeles, it is also the place with the most American stars, so it naturally attracts many American stars, and many Hollywood figures also come to watch the game. Zhang Guan, with the two halos of "the world's No. 1 flyer" and "Sharapova's boyfriend", has attracted more media attention than many Hollywood stars. Especially in Sharapova's game, there was a camera that kept shooting at Zhang Guan, and in the TV broadcast, Zhang Guan also became the person who got the most shots except for the two contestants.

After the end of the WTA year-end finals. Zhang Guan rushed to New York with Sharapova.

……

Manhattan Beach, California.

"How's this house? I just bought it. Sharapova continued: "More than 3,600 square feet! And with the sea over there, it's nice to spend a holiday here! ”

"The design is original and the view is good." Zhang Guan looked around. It is a frameless loft structure with half of the front and side walls made of all-glass, and the interior is absolutely top-notch. The almost transparent design of the entire floor makes the interior space appear large.

"Originally, the renovation company said that it would take next year to deliver, but I remembered that you would come. Let the renovation company speed up the progress. With a smug expression, Sharapova pulled Zhang Guan and walked to the wide balcony on the roof.

There were two white deck chairs on the balcony, just in time to enjoy the sun, and Zhang Guan stepped forward. I saw a dozen magazines on the small table next to the recliner.

It's all track and field magazines!

"Martha, why are they all track and field magazines?" Zhang Guan picked up a book at random and flipped it up casually.

"Because I don't know anything about athletics!" Sharapova leaned on Zhang's shoulder from behind, and then continued: "We are lovers, but I don't know anything about athletics, I want to know more about you, so I bought these magazines." ”

Zhang Guan's body trembled involuntarily, he didn't feel the slightest emotion of excitement, but a slight sourness and thick self-blame permeated his heart.

"Yes, she's right, we're lovers, lovers should know each other, be familiar with each other, and how much do I know about her? If she hadn't told me personally, I probably wouldn't have known what she experienced as a child. She's a tennis player, and I can't even play tennis......"

Zhang Guan suddenly felt that his boyfriend seemed to be very unqualified. Although the two get together less and leave more, Sharapova has been trying to understand herself, but she has not thought to understand her.

Suddenly, Zhang Guan found that his feelings for Sharapova may not be about love at all, but more likely a sense of satisfaction and pride in possession, Sharapova is the first beauty in the tennis world, so a man will have a sense of satisfaction and pride in possessing her!

But he is her boyfriend, what he needs to do is not to enjoy satisfaction and pride, what he needs to do is to stand firmly behind her, to understand her, to care for her, to accompany her, to support her......

However, in these aspects, Zhang Guan is not qualified.

"Martha, teach me tennis!" Zhang Guan said suddenly. (To be continued.) )
