The roof of the Bird's Nest Stadium was torn down by the enthusiasm of the audience.
The bleachers were packed with people.
This kind of enthusiasm will make many big-hearted athletes feel extra motivation, such as Su Shen and Bolt, but there are also some who will suffer huge interference.
Such as Asafa Powell.
What he felt now was that he was already dripping with sweat even before he ran away.
This state is almost the same as when he was in Osaka. It cannot be said that it is very similar, it can only be said that it is the same.
Under the tremendous pressure, even the smile on his face seemed to freeze.
As a former fan of Powell, Bolt was a little worried when he saw Powell's mental state. Based on the friendship between his compatriots, he walked over during the final trimming stage to help Powell relax and calm down.
Few people would be so kind to their Olympic opponents, or primary opponents.
Even people from one country are the same.
After all, this is the Olympics.
When they get on the court, they are all "competitive opponents."
But Bolt still walked over and wanted to help Powell. Of course, his feeling may be...he is number one anyway.
It would be best if both the top two teams are occupied by Jamaica.
"Hey, Asafa, let's run this final well." Bolt tried to influence Powell in his own way: "Let this game become a dream game. Jamaica takes the top two. Wow, what a cool one." It’s something, right?”
It's a pity... Powell is like a marionette now, his whole body is extremely stiff.
I don’t know if this is because he warmed up too much in the side court. Powell’s overall condition has not been in the game yet, and he is already sweating profusely.
In Bolt's own words, Powell ran "hard" in the warm-up on the side court. Bolt was also brought into the "rhythm" and began to ask Mills if he wanted to run a few more sets.
As a result, Mills's approach was... flatly refused.
Tell him, that's enough, there's no need to run anymore, just keep some energy and excitement in your body.
This is the difference between Mills and Francis.
Mills simply wouldn't let Bolt run too many warm-up sets before a race.
But although the two men bumped fists, Bolt still saw numbness and "fear" on Powell's face.
Yes, it is "fear". Don't think that you are deliberately trying to discredit Powell, because in fact Bolt mentioned this in his autobiography, and the word he used was "fear".
Therefore, Bolt came to the conclusion from here that he might have no opponent with this shot.
Because the only remaining opponent has not yet run away and has already lost his fighting spirit in advance.
For athletes who have no fighting spirit, no matter how well their physical condition is adjusted before the game, it will be meaningless.
After all, you have to know that the human body always needs the spirit to issue complex orders.
If your nerves are not prepared, your physical body, even if it has the opportunity to be capable, will be blocked and unable to perform at its fullest.
Bolt shook his head on the side. He knew that he had tried his best. It was not an easy task to change Powell.
Just when Bolt had given up, Su Shen, who was warming up for a trial run, returned to the starting line when someone suddenly called him: "Hey, Su, can I have a word with you?"
Su Shen was stunned and turned around to see, if this was not his neighbor Asafa Powell, who could he be?
What does Powell want to say to himself? Su Shen was a little confused, but he still listened attentively and waited for Powell to finish what he said.
"Su, can I ask you something?" Powell asked again. It can be seen that he has really entered a state of "self-tension" again, and his words are slightly awkward. He doesn't look like a world champion at all. Instead, he looks like a young guy who has just participated in the competition. His body's ability to withstand pressure is really poor.
"What's the matter, Asafa, please tell me." Su Shen did not directly agree to anything, but just chose to listen first.
This is a sign of maturity. He has long been familiar with this truth.
I won't do anything that I don't have any confidence in and just agree to it because of cerebral congestion.
"Can you tell me what you said in Valusia again?"
Su Shen was a little confused and didn't know what Powell meant specifically, but it didn't seem to mean anything like this just by opening his mouth. Most of them are still willing to help with requests that are easily within their capabilities.
Just like someone said, most people are not great good people, and they are definitely not great evil people.
In terms of human relations and sophistication, the kind side still takes the initiative without harming one's own interests.
But the key is that in Valencia... The two of them talked a lot, and when you suddenly said something like this, Su Shen was not unimpressed and prepared.
"You just told me before starting, please, Su." Powell said with sweat on his head. Looking at him, I really doubted whether he could really run well. Absolutely strong physical talent and potential, but equipped with a relatively weak psychological quality. Sometimes you can only admire God's "miraculous workmanship". It is really difficult to have an absolutely perfect person.
After thinking about it, I said that I had a lot of meat, and Su Shen had always had a good impression of Powell.
The explosive start is to learn from the improved Powell's explosive start.
Therefore, due to emotions and reasons, he is his "half master", and he has some connections, and Su Shen is not an ice bucket who turns his back on him.
"Asafa, I have been looking forward to this battle for a long time. You must not show mercy." Su Shen said.
"Su, can I ask you to do it again? If you are more serious, I will invite you to Jamaica as a guest later. The air tickets are free and all meals and lodging are included." Seeing Powell like this, Su Shen was happy, nodded, and took a breath. He looked at Powell seriously and said:
"Asafa, I have been looking forward to this battle for a long time, but you must not do it."
"Show mercy."
That's the look.
Powell felt like he was in Valencia, and his most primitive emotions as an athlete seemed to have finally been mobilized.
"Thank you Sue, you're a good person."
"I will definitely remember your kindness and give my best on the court."
Hearing this, Su Shen smiled and said: "Your way of dealing with kindness is to go all out, so am I at a big loss? I can tell you, Asafa, I have never looked at someone so seriously in my life. Man, you must be one of them.”
"Haha, Su, thank you. You and Usain are both good people. If I can get a medal this time, I will use the bonus to give you a big gift." Powell's mood has recovered a lot, although he is still nervous He was dripping with sweat, but at least a less stiff smile appeared on his face.
"Then I will be disrespectful." Su Shen said with a smile: "Get ready. From now until the end of the game, we are no longer friends, but enemies."
"Well, until the finish line, we are 'enemies'."
Bolt saw that Powell actually spoke better to Su Shen than he did. He once wondered whether he had the same nationality as Powell.
Live commentary seats.
"We can see on the camera that Su Shen and Powell next to him are having a brief exchange. It seems that Su Shen's international influence is also increasing. Even the former world record holder is like a friend with Su Shen." Yang Jian said After finishing, he asked Liu Xiang: "I have a curious question. I want to know, have you gained respect step by step on the world stage?"
"That's it." Liu Xiang put on the headset and said: "On the international stage, if you want to gain respect, especially if you have yellow skin, you can only let your strength make the decision. Foreign athletes can only be equal if your strength improves. Treat. It’s really difficult to rely on pure personal charm.”
"And now this scene shows that Su Shen has gained this respect. He is a truly world-class athlete."
…
Ready to finish.
The referee begins by asking the athletes to get to their starting blocks.
At this time, the electronic password also rang.
"on your marks."
Seeing the electronic password ringing and the athletes starting to enter their own lanes, Yang Jian immediately started to enter the state and said:
"The men's 100-meter flying competition is about to begin."
"All eight young people present will fight for their own honor and the honor of their motherland."
"They will also challenge the speed limit of their predecessors."
"We also hope that they can stage another classic 100-meter flying contest twelve years later."
Standing on the field, Su Shen made preparations.
He leaned forward with his arms bent, feeling the graininess on the track, and placed one knee gently on the ground.
The contestants in the other races also stepped firmly on the footrests on the starting block, buckled one knee to the ground, and prepared to raise their buttocks to start.
This shot will be one of the most exciting performances in the Olympics.
Not even one.
For any major athlete, the men's trapeze battle is always the highlight.
"Please also be quiet and give the athletes the most comfortable start." Liu Xiang reminded, he knew very well what terrible consequences it would be if the gunshots were not heard clearly on the track. And he did this for Su Shen and the others. After all, Su Shen and the others had gone through a fierce battle in the semi-finals. Now that they come in, if they want to gain an advantage, starting is very important.
at least.
Can't lag too much.
Otherwise, there is no hope at all.
"set."
When the next command came out, Su Shen's fingers used a little force to form an arch shape, preparing for elastic support before starting.
This is crucial for the first kick of the crank start.
Compared with the audience at the scene, maybe the professionals were more nervous.
Because they knew that Su Shen and the others would not be able to recover from the heavy exhaustion they had endured in the semi-finals in just over 2 hours.
Even if they have strength by then, it is estimated that it will be difficult to show them all in the finals.
This is probably the most uncomfortable scene.
However, this is the Olympic Games. Your physical recovery and multi-gun ability have always been the focus of the trapeze battle.
It's not directed at any one person.
Although Yuan Guoqiang, Yu Weili, Feng Shuyong and others are not comfortable in the same position, what they are thinking in their hearts now are exactly the same.
Please give our flower grower sprint team an excellent start.
In this way, it may be able to reduce a lot of burden for the pure running behind.
"Please hold your breath and wait for the ten seconds that millions of people are watching."
In this state, Lin Yanfang felt that her heart was about to jump into her throat. The feeling at the scene, especially in the Bird's Nest, among a hundred thousand people, this tension seemed to be invisibly magnified a hundred thousand times. .
Up there, she felt that her body could not help but tremble slightly.
What's more, Su Shen is on the court, gathering momentum to take action.
She couldn't imagine it.
But what we can do now is pray sincerely in our hearts.
Pray for the boy you love most.
He was able to run the track in the Bird's Nest.
Complete the game successfully.
Whoop, whoop, whoop.
Su Shen adjusted his breathing. It was obvious that the "balloon breathing training method" of the assault training had made his ventilation muscles stronger day by day. Even if it has not yet reached its peak, it is already much better than the rough version of "Su's Breath" before.
bring it on.
That's it.
I'm ready too.
And who knows, the so-called world record holder is actually thinking silently in his heart:
God, amen, give me a big shot and a start.
Do you think it's funny? But in fact, this was what Bolt himself later said about his inner thoughts at the time.
Martina, Zhao Haohuan, Bolt, Powell, Su Shen, Richard Thompson, Walter Dix, Mark Burns.
After three rounds of selection, the eight contestants who had come up one level at a time were already on the starting block, all raising their buttocks.
"You must be very focused at the start." Liu Xiang was completely involved. He is an active athlete and a straight track athlete, so it is naturally easy to empathize.
This is the highest stage of honor, and no one who comes is weak.
As far as medals are concerned, being able to stand on the final stage of the 100-meter trapeze competition in the Olympic Games is already fascinating enough.
How many hundred-meter athletes regard this as the goal that they need to work hard for throughout their lives?
Even Su Shen was like this in his previous life.
Being able to stand here already shows that you are some of the strongest sprinters in the world.
After all, if you reach the Olympic finals, this will also become a personal honor and be written into your honor bag.
This is the gold content of the Olympic final.
Thompson was beaten by Su Shen at the start of the semifinals. He felt very unhappy. In fact, he was full of energy for this shot.
I want to regain my confidence as a startup king.
But if he thought so, that would be... such a pity.
Because in the OW finals, Su Shen, the restarter, will be invincible in the world.
Even Thompson, who was once tied for first place in history, was of no help.
This shot, Su Shen is destined to activate and shock the world.
And he also knows very well that if he wants to win the brand in his current state, super activation is indispensable.
At this time, Thompson will come and have a hard time with Su Shen.
It can only be said that he really found the wrong person.
Quiet, quiet, quiet.
Occasional sporadic sounds will make the air more condensed because of the presence of 100,000 people.
In Su Shen's mind, he was counting silently.
It's like a rocket launching.
three.
two.
one.
Bang——————————————————————————
Electronic gunfire.
Game start.
Thompson, in lane six, rushed out quickly with absolute confidence.
The feeling he felt after taking this shot made him overjoyed immediately.
Because of this shot...
It feels surprisingly good.
Even in training, it is difficult to achieve the feeling of starting the gun.
In this case, as a top athlete, he knew that his starting performance would definitely not be bad.
Even when it feels like this, he and his coach are sure of it.
He is number one in the world!
In fact, on the original timeline, Thompson was indeed first in the ten-meter division, so much so that Bolt even said in his autobiography, "Oh my god, he's so cruel." Moreover, if you look carefully, you will know that his starting reaction is also a solid first.
0.133 seconds.
It seems a lot worse than the semifinals, but... you have to figure it out.
This is the final.
There is no need for everyone, they don't want to rush away easily, and they don't dare.
Therefore, you will find that the starting reaction of the OW finals is often much slower than that of the semi-finals.
This is because of people's mentality.
It's hard to achieve a complete relaxation response for this kind of game.
Therefore, Thompson with 0.133s is already the one with the fastest reaction. Bolt, as you know, usually comes from the back. This time in the finals, he was almost at the bottom.
Fortunately, Dutch player Martina gave him the all-clear, so Bolt was not the rare Olympic champion in history who reacted last.
Only American player Dix has a reaction time comparable to his.
The rest, even Powell, are slower than him.
Bolt even lost 0.03~0.04s here. Bolt's starting reaction for this shot was only 0.165.
This gap is equivalent to giving up a position in the 100-meter race.
Therefore, Richard Thompson does have pride and pride.
It’s not easy to react the fastest in the finals and be so calm.
But Thompson's joy didn't exist in his heart for a hundredth of a second. In the next moment, he already felt that his mood was going down like a roller coaster.
And it’s the kind of roller coaster that falls directly without the track.
As the world's top man, the man who has the best starting reaction in the Olympic finals must have nothing to say about his mental quality.
But at this moment, Thompson really felt a "demon wind" blowing suddenly from his side.
Glancing out of the corner of his eye.
I was even more shocked inside.
Because what passed was not the wind.
But people.
It was an oriental figure, sweeping past him.
It was too fast, so it felt like the sound of breaking wind.
Got away! ! !
Because he reacted so quickly, he still couldn't even touch the other person's butt?
This is obviously not right!
So in the mind, there is no need to think about it, the subconscious professional reaction is the word "jump ahead".
Obviously, because this shot started too fast, Yuan Guoqiang and the others generally thought the same way.
However……
The next moment, the familiar "didi-didi" sound did not... sound!
this means.
Toyoshu Yuong was in the box, and when he thought of something, his eyes suddenly widened, and his whole face was unconsciously pressed against the glass in front, and he almost blurted out the C language.
Yuan Guoqiang even blurted out: "This, this boy..."
After talking for a long time, there was no follow-up.
But everything is left unsaid.
Because the rest of the people around Yuan Guoqiang are also the same, with little difference.
Even Mills, who had always felt that he had a chance to win, was derailed by Su Shen's super activation.
Super boot.
See also Super Start.
And it was a super start that appeared in the Olympic finals.
Su Shen only took one tenth of a second.
It was already an elegant harvest with a "fuck".
Shocked the whole audience.
