Split, Croatia.
It is the second largest city here. The climate here is Mediterranean, dry in summer and humid in winter.
This year's World Cup track and field competition, which has just been renamed, will be held here.
Bolliud Stadium.
It can accommodate nearly 40,000 people and is the home ground of Haiduk Split.
When we got off the plane this time, Yu Weili was still leading the team, but we didn't see a few familiar figures, such as Su Shen and Liu Xiang.
As for the sprint team of the Flower Planters, because Masashi Erikochi's knee has been injured recently, if he does not participate, basically no one in Asia can cause trouble to Zhao Haohuan and the others. The Japanese team easily watched the Flower Planters easily win all the quotas in the 100-meter dash again. The 200-meter side also won two, and Xie Zhengye was able to come here to participate in the international competition.
Zhao Haohuan is the athlete leading the team this time, and Su Shen is not here. As the second best athlete in Asia, he should be tough.
"What? What is our goal this time? If the Big Four don't come, the players I most want to run are the Jamaican players, such as Nesta Carter and Yohan Blake. If they don't come, I can only aim to go Try to compete for the championship." Zhao Haohuan's words made many reporters stunned. They thought that with Su Shen gone, the Asian team should be more honest this time, but...
It makes no sense at all.
And even if these people come, Zhao Haohuan is not without a chance.
After all, one of the biggest characteristics developed on Ersha Island is stability.
It is his greatest weight.
It's a pity that neither Blake nor Carter came over in the end. Blake Letti was a little depressed. He must make a breakthrough this time when he goes back. Carter went to compete elsewhere. His heart was pounding from the battle with Letti. My heart was pounding, and I could only rank fifth with 9.78 seconds. I was really... heartbroken.
I urgently need to find a place where I can easily compete, torture and "heal".
But if they don't come, Zhao Haohuan's pressure will suddenly be reduced a lot. Although there are also ten-breakers coming, but to be honest, Zhao Haohuan can be said to be able to deal with it easily now, not at all. See it in your eyes.
Maybe his results in the competition are not good, but you also have to look at what era this is. Super strong players come out one after another and compete together, which makes it seem like he is not powerful enough. But if these people don't come over, Zhao Haohuan actually has the possibility of competing for the gold medal.
Even if Carter hadn't suddenly exploded in Rieti and became a member of the 9.70+ club, he would have been the first person to compete for the top four.
Zhao Haohuan was originally gearing up to have a battle with these people to be the first among the four giants. However, none of these key research subjects came. This is really...
The timing and opportunity are all for Zhao Haohuan to win his first world championship.
Zhao Haohuan thought about it and was not polite. After easily breaking through the preliminaries and semi-finals, he quickly stood on the final stage.
It's said that it's the final stage, but there are a lot of people pulling their crotches. This time there are really too few experts.
A closer look shows that apart from Lao Yi and Zhang Peimeng, the only ones standing on the final stage are Monzavos Edwards and Ryan Bailey of the American team, Mark Lewis Francis of the Little Eagles national team, Daniel Bailey of Antigua and Barbuda, and one of the most popular sprinters this year, Christopher Lematri, who can fly even if he is white.
The most powerful one among them was naturally Daniel Bailey of Antigua and Barbuda who ran against the wind in 9.91 seconds.
But if Zhao Haohuan doesn't perform abnormally, there won't be any big problems.
It was a wonderful feeling for him to stand on the court, because this was his first time in a relatively large finals in the world, and he didn't have a comparable opponent, not even a 9.80+ opponent.
Lemaitrie was also a person who received a lot of publicity before the game, even more than Zhao Haohuan. This is because... he is white.
Believe it or not, the richest group of people and big families in the world are still 99% white. Although the world cannot have racial discrimination and so-called Western political correctness, but... you really want to tell them what they think. The resonance between people with completely different skin colors is definitely not as much as the resonance between people with the same skin color.
A black man can run fast, but no pure-bred white man can look happy.
Moreover, Lemaitrie has indeed performed bravely this season. He has broken ten points three times this season. He has achieved this three times in a short period of two months. Many people are hoping that he will be the next Su Shen and the next white man. The symbol of the rise of 100 meters.
Especially the yellow-skinned Su Shen defeated everyone this year and remained undefeated, which stimulated many white people's desire for 100 meters.
This desire is all focused on Lematri, a kid born in the 1990s.
This made Lematri very uncomfortable.
But what can be done.
Usually when I run to the back, I am the only white-skinned person. Even in this game, there were three yellow-skinned people, and they all had teammates.
At this moment, he really felt... quite lonely.
Zhao Haohuan stood in the fifth lane, right next to him, looking at this white young man who was also close to 190cm tall. He knew that Lemaitrie's idol was Su Shen, and nodded slightly to him as a greeting. Lematri saw Zhao Haohuan, who had just run 9.81s in Rieti, actually greeting him. He was stunned for a moment and immediately nodded in response.
Hey, he is also a guy who is expected by countless people.
Zhao Haohuan and Su Shen have felt this way before. They are the only two yellow-skinned people who can be on the big stage. It is really lonely.
Now this guy doesn't even have a partner. He really has yellow skin and is very unlucky.
However, Lematri's ability to break ten in a row still made him look forward to his performance. Of course, winning was certain, but he was just curious about how fast the white man could run.
After all, Lemaitrie's current PB is 9.97s. To be honest, he doesn't think this result is anything special.
At present, the ten-breakers under 9.95s are afraid that they can only compete with work and rest in China, and they are still far behind themselves.
Lao Yi was in the seventh lane, and he also looked at Lemaitrie next to him. He knew that this was the fastest runner among the white people. He started ten seconds into the third season of the season. To be honest, he and Zhao Haohuan had different ideas. On the contrary, his idea was ...I want to compete with this fastest white guy.
Compete and compete.
See if you, the third fastest person with yellow skin, can outrun the fastest person with white skin.
"on your marks."
Su Shen watched on the TV. This was also the first time for him to watch his teammates perform on the world stage as an audience since the game was restarted.
At this time, a group of little kids came over and stood timidly behind Su Shen. After all, now Su Shen is a sprinting god, not to mention in China, even in Asia. In the past, he was not here in Ersha Island for big competitions. These little kids You can be wild and wanton. But now he is here, and due to his prestige, many people can only stand in the back, and no one dares to be lively and noisy in the usual way.
Only Su Shen looked at it, turned his head, looked at a group of timid little eyes, and suddenly became happy, and said to a little girl with a Nezha head: "Why, are you usually so quiet when watching games? How can I I heard Ningma say that’s not the case.”
"Su..." In fact, the little girl Nezha had not thought about how to call Su Shen. After thinking about it, she still held back: "Boss Su, this is not something we usually do. It's just that you are here, so we can't let go. "
What? ? ?
Su Shen was stunned.
Good guy, Boss Su?
It's not like I haven't heard this before, but when the young version of Ge Manqi heard it, it was a bit unforgettable.
Su Shen was stunned for a few seconds, and then suddenly laughed loudly and said: "You can do whatever you want. If you are like this, others will think that I have bullied you."
"We at Ersha Island do not engage in hegemony."
Hearing what Su Shen said, Ge Manqi suddenly became bolder. She was not very courageous at first. She immediately came over and asked with her eyes wide open: "Boss Su, can Brother Gou Huan win this sentence?"
"You can just call me Brother Xiao Tian. Besides, why do you also call me Zhao Haohuan?"
Isn't this the private name of a small team?
Ge Manqi looked at Su Shen, and immediately shook his little head with Nezha hair tied in it and said: "Boss Su, you shouted so loudly during the Olympics and World Championships relay races, you don't want us to know, you are very stupid. .”
Forehead. (⊙o⊙)…
All right.
It seems that although no one said it on the scene, Zhao Haohuan's nickname in private has been like a flood that cannot be stopped.
"Do you think you can win?" Su Shen didn't care about this and continued to ask.
"I think it's okay." Ge Manqi said without hesitation. This feeling was really inspiring.
"Yo, so sure?"
I thought I was just teasing the children, but I didn't expect Ge Manqi to say: "Brother Gou Huan is more handsome than them all."
"It's unreasonable for a handsome guy not to win."
ha? ? ?
Su Shen: Embarrassing.
Okay, so that's what you thought, but Gou Huan, with his handsome face in his early 19's, long legs and athletic physique, is indeed a girl-killer. Su Shen has never doubted this.
I just didn't expect that a thirteen-year-old girl would know this. The times are really developing faster and faster.
At this moment, the sound of "set" came from the TV, and Su Shen regained his concentration.
On the TV, Yang Jian's voice was the same as always, the calm before the storm.
"Zhao Haohuan must be steady with this shot. If he is steady, he can win."
Now is not the past after all. After Su Shen led a group of people and started to achieve results, the domestic sprinting self-confidence has also increased with the tide. It will not be the same as before, seeing the advantage in hand, but not dare to say it openly.
Zhao Haohuan bent his arms and got ready, looking ahead, waiting for the gunshot to sound and running.
To his left is Daniel Bailey, who is also the person most likely to threaten him.
As long as the front can keep up and not create any big opportunities for Bailey to disrupt the rhythm, Zhao Haohuan will be confident to accept the game.
A few seconds of silence.
Bang——————————————————
The scene immediately became lively.
The 100 meters is the most primitive speed competition, and it can arouse people's deepest genetic resonance anywhere.
"Game start!"
"It's not bad to start Zhao Haohuan. In the third place, the speed in the acceleration zone is increasing steadily. Don't be anxious. Okay, not bad, we're getting closer!"
At this time, Zhao Haohuan had gradually followed Daniel Bailey in front of him. As for the disadvantage in front of him, he didn't take it to heart at all.
And I have been with Su Shen for a long time.
It feels like no matter how far behind we are, we are just used to it.
Nothing special.
Nowadays, if you want to rely on your future to disrupt Zhao Haohuan's rhythm, you are actually thinking too much...
Zhao Haohuan has been tortured by the team in the future and his nerves are as strong as iron.
If you want to disrupt him, you have to rely on the late rhythm.
For example, Bolt and Gay disrupted his rhythm several times.
Daniel Bailey is obviously unlikely.
"Run on the way!"
After the acceleration zone was lifted, Zhao Haohuan quickly raised his head and entered the middle of the road. Because the opponent was not strong enough and without the Big Four, Zhao Haohuan simply felt that the difficulty had dropped by countless times. He could even feel that Daniel Bailey, They all ran away...
Not quite.
With such a small lead, can we watch it?
This is less than a position.
In this case, Zhao Haohuan didn't say much, and his hip thrust immediately exerted force. As his speed increased, his advantages began to show.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang.
The swinging leg is immediately fully extended, and at the same time, the vertical axis of the hip on the same side is rotated, so that the two thighs form the maximum angle.
If you have a muscle observation device on your body now, you can definitely see that the displacement of Zhao Haohuan's center of gravity in the vertical direction has 4 peaks and 4 troughs, and as the upper body gradually lifts, the curve shows an upward trend.
These are extremely excellent data for running on the road.
Therefore, less than ten meters away, not even reaching the top speed zone, Zhao Haohuan passed Dennis Bailey almost in the blink of an eye.
And he didn't exert much force at all.
This...is winning?
Don't blame Zhao Haohuan for popping the champagne in advance now, mainly because it is impossible for anyone in this group of people to catch up with him later.
Since there is no one left behind, and he is already number one in the top speed zone, then...
What's the point of winning in advance?
In the top speed zone, Zhao Haohuan broke out normally, surpassing two in six seconds, and was easily liberated.
The speed suddenly reached a new level.
At this time, it was impossible for anyone to catch up with him. Even Yang Jian started talking in advance————
"Zhao Haohuan is already in first place! Has the balance of victory tilted so early?"
"Will it be that easy?"
Eh.
It's really that easy.
After entering the extreme speed zone, it is even less possible for these people to catch up with Zhao Haohuan, who has already started to race ahead.
Enjoy Usain Bolt-like treatment.
Zhao Haohuan heard the sound of spikes beside him getting smaller and smaller, and turned around to see, well, the victory was already sealed.
This scene was accurately captured, and then put together with Bolt's return, his title of florist Bolt became more and more solid.
But that’s a story for another day.
Now because Zhao Haohuan ran too fast, he left the others behind, one position, two positions, three positions, or even more often...
I feel a little unreal.
In recent years, he has been playing the role of chasing Su Shen and international masters, and this is also the position he has given himself.
Facing these "beasts", no matter how much he improves, he still seems to feel that he is not good enough or good enough.
But now that these people were gone, when he turned his eyes away from these people and back to himself for the first time, he suddenly realized that... he had become one of the most powerful people in the world.
Many of these people, many of whom I thought were pretty good or even quite powerful before, such as Bailey who Beiao saw, now face him... they have actually lost the power to resist.
He was already walking on a very high mountain.
When I looked back, I realized that I was almost "below a few people and above ten thousand people."
Almost with this state of mind, Zhao Haohuan approached the finish line step by step.
There is no Bolt, no Gay, no Powell, no Su Shen, not even Blake, Carter, Thompson and the others.
There was only one Zhao Haohuan left before the finish line. Even if Ryan Bailey caught up behind him and continued to fight back, it would not affect him at all. Even though Ryan Bailey ran a PB of 9.88s in Rieti, in fact, his hard strength is currently at 9.93. In addition, his performance is not stable enough. He is at least two and a half or even two points behind the current Zhao Haohuan. A grade of more than one and a half.
Although his late game is also good, compared to Zhao Haohuan, who can already open 3.40s relatively stably, he is still unable to match.
So in the end he just competed with Loyd-Lemetrie for second place.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang.
These three people are all the type to work hard in the later stages. In the last thirty meters, it will be a showdown.
In the end, Ryan Bailey, who ran 9.88s in Rieti, relied on his height and stride and a stronger back to surpass Lao Yi and Lematri and ran to second place. Followed by Lao Yi and Lemaitrie, since they have been passed by Ryan Bailey, forget it, aim for third place, at least a bronze medal is fine.
Lao Yi also really wants a medal on the international competition stage.
Although he also has team medals, individual medals are still too few.
None of the masters came this time, which gave him, the ten-breaker, a good opportunity.
Otherwise, he might not even be qualified to join a competition like Rieti's.
Lao Yi and Le Maitrie were in a stalemate for ten meters, and in the last fifteen meters, Lao Yi relied on his better physical condition and skills to gradually pass Le Maitrie. After so many years of hard training, the physical condition of work and rest has already reached the standards of North American athletes. Compared with European Lematri, he is even more physically advantageous.
Will we actually one day take advantage of sprinting physically?
This scene really made Yu Weili, who was leading the team, feel.
vaguely.
After all, when he was a sportsman and athlete in China, his body has always been a weak point of Asian sprinters.
Our bodies are considered “ordinary” in Asia.
But now, we can actually rely on better physical fitness, physical accumulation, and physical transformation to suppress our opponents. This was a fantasy five or six years ago.
But Lao Yi did rely on his better body, and finally suppressed Lemaitrie. In the final duel with Lao Yi, his speed dropped significantly.
After the body cannot hold on, it is natural that the technical movements cannot be maintained. Moreover, he has broken ten too many times recently. If the body cannot keep up, the consumption will be too great. Naturally, he will be unable to withstand this game in the end. Although the training in Europe is much better than that in Asia, it is still far behind the Americas, and it cannot be compared with the flower growers who have entered the world's top training level.
This is also the most powerful evidence for what Su Shen said, that the body drives technology.
If your body is not good enough and your quality is not up to standard, no matter how good your skills are, they are just words on paper and cannot be used.
In the end, Lematri actually had a showdown with Zhang Peimeng, who came up from the second line, and rushed to the finish line.
Tianchao Sports Station also shouted loudly: "No one can catch up with Zhao Haohuan!"
"Zhao Haohuan took one final stride and rushed to the finish line!"
"No pressure!"
"Straight through!"
"9.83s!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Zhao Haohuan crossed the finish line in 9.83 seconds!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Our first World Cup track and field 100-meter champion was born!!!!!!!!!!!"
"The undoubted champion, the honor of Zhao Haohuan's first world championship, he fulfilled his wish in Croatia!!!!"
In addition to Zhao Haohuan looking at his results, he also felt a little "unaccustomed" to his sudden world championship.
But he just looked at the venue with an expressionless expression, so in the eyes of the girl, he was not a kind of... cold person.
Anyway, handsome people do everything right.
Not to mention being a champion.
The second place is Ryan Bailey, his time is 9.95s.
The third place was Lao Yi, with a score of 9.96s.
The fourth place was Christopher Lematri with a time of 10.07s.
The fifth place is Zhang Peimeng, also with a score of 10.07s.
Sixth was Daniel Bailey with a time of 10.10s.
Seventh was Mark Louis Francis of Kitty Hawk Nation with 10.16s.
The last place was Edwards of the American team, with a time of 10.23s.
Su Shen watched from Ersha Island. It was not surprising that Zhao Haohuan won the championship. He had expected it. This result was obviously much better than the Intercontinental Cup final in his memory. The top three were all within ten seconds.
You must know that in the previous life, the first place in this game was 10.07 seconds.
The 100-meter level in the world seems to be gradually becoming more and more "involved" under the "flapping" of this little butterfly.
However, what makes Su Shen most gratified is that this Intercontinental Cup final has proved his success in training and change.
These Su gods prove it.
Even without themselves, they are enough to cope with many competitions in addition to top-level competitions.
The entire sprint program, the entire environment and the entire industry were lifted up.
This is also one of Su Shen's wishes when he came here.
Now, it is finally achieved.
He looked at Zhao Haohuan who was surrounded by reporters in the camera and spoke "coldly".
I looked at the calendar on the wall.
The rest reopened their long-cherished wish.
There were only two left.
An OW gold medal.
A pair of top-notch Bolt.
He is truly at his peak.
This is not the "downturn" of him this year.
PS: It’s a new month, please vote~~~~~~~~~~~
