Stockholm.
Speaking of this city, perhaps the most impressive association for everyone is Stockholm Syndrome. The incident left behind by the two robbers who robbed the bank in 1973 became a global benchmark for this city.
You may not know the city of Stockholm, but you’ve definitely heard of Stockholm Syndrome.
Of course such a "famous" label is Stockholm. Whether you want it or not is a question. As the capital and largest city of Switzerland, it is the political, economic, cultural, transportation center and main port. It is also the official palace seat of the Swedish national government, parliament and royal family. Of course, it is also the hometown of the famous Alfred Nobel.
In February, the weather here was still a bit cold, but now Su Shen's team and Liu Xiang's team have done a good job in keeping warm and providing logistical support to the athletes.
They don't have too many problems.
After the registration and registration work was completed, the second day of the competition officially began.
In the early morning of February 24th in China, the 60-meter hurdles of the IAAF Sweden Stockholm Indoor Challenge will begin. The second round of the battle between Liu Xiang and Robles this season is about to begin. Judging from the list of participants announced by the organizing committee, the strength of the other players is very different from that of Liu and Luo. This game is destined to be a duet between them.
So far, the organizing committee has announced the roster. Apart from Liu Xiang and Robles, the only one with a best time of over 7.60 seconds is Italian player Abate’s 7.57 seconds. He also participated in last week’s Birmingham Indoor Games. , but did not reach the finals. The IAAF also published an article on its official website expressing concern about the second match between Liu Xiang and Robles, saying that this match will once again become the focus of the audience:
It was impressive that Liu Xiang defeated Robles to win the championship in Birmingham. He beat Robles by more than 1 meter and almost tied the Asian record of 7.39 seconds for the 60-meter indoor sprint that he set in 2010. This is a good sign for the New Year. In the first game, the state was not very good.
However, Liu Xiang's season-best time of 7.40 seconds in Birmingham obviously made Robles a little unhappy. Although in the 110-meter hurdles, he was not sure that he could win against Liu Xiang, but in the 60-meter hurdles, Robles felt that this was his own field.
Even after making eight changes and seven changes, Liu Xiang should not be his opponent, so in an interview before the game, he boasted that he would break the season's best 60-meter hurdles record in this game. He even wants to hit Colin Jackson's world record in this game to celebrate the Olympic year.
Stockholm is Robles' blessed place. Here he has won the 60-meter hurdles championship three times. What he needs most now is to rewrite this year's record to 1:1 before the World Championships.
So no matter what the need is, Robles wants to defeat Liu Xiang here and regain his advantage in the future of the competition here.
Of course, if he wants to break Colin Jackson's world 60-meter record, Su Shen feels that it will be difficult even for Robles. After all, that record is really too fast.
He was able to run 7.30 seconds indoors without any wind.
If Colin Jackson's pace had been higher, it is estimated that the world record would have entered the 12 seconds and 80+ area.
But he wanted to beat the world's best time set in Birmingham, which was Liu Xiang's 7.40 seconds. This was definitely something he had planned for a long time and had thought about it before he came.
Adding Colin Jackson, that's actually just an addition.
Make it sound better when you say it.
It's not as serious a "personal grudge" as Liu Xiang.
Moreover, in addition to Liu Xiang, the "American Legion" including Oliver, Richardson, Merritt, Trammell and others were absent again due to preparations for the domestic trials, and flower grower Shi Dongpeng was also absent due to Injury, another truce after Birmingham's withdrawal.
It can be seen that after the battle in Daegu, Shi Dongpeng was over, and his peak began to decline.
He probably knows this himself.
Therefore, he also regards this Olympic year as his final sprint.
After the game, I was ready to take a back seat or make a retirement report.
In addition, for the Stockholm Indoor Games, the official lineup has also been announced for the 60-meter sprint.
The leader among them is Su Shen.
In the competition where Powell and Bolt cannot come, Su Shen is undoubtedly the biggest card in the indoor competition, and if it is placed before him, it will become a one-man show, and no one can threaten him at all.
Coupled with the honor of winning three consecutive world championships, even top five players like Powell and Bolt are coming over, and in the 60-meter event...
Su Shen is equally qualified and powerful.
Standing in the middle of these posters.
This is the status he has earned with sweat and hard work over the years. In the 60-meter event, he has developed a dominance similar to Bolt's in the 100 meters and 200 meters.
This day is definitely not a day that Su Shen is boasting about.
He has really achieved this level.
Use the most scientific method system and technological means to reach the peak of the talents you should have, the talents that were not realized in the previous life, and then look for opportunities to break and stand up again.
That is to say.
Even with the indoor and sectional records that Su Shen currently holds, he is not satisfied.
He thinks that based on his current conditions.
Given his unique advantage as a restarter, he should use his change of feet to make another limit breakthrough.
next time.
That's the limit he can really reach.
Although he can win now, facing Bolt, who also has a prospect of less than 6.30, without the competition buff that activates reactions, he is actually still within the same level.
All he has to do is.
Completely raise the bar.
It's like Bolt puts him on a par with the rest. Let everyone in the future mention their future as their own name. This time coming to the Stockholm Indoor Games is Kemar Heyman from the Cayman Islands. Don’t think this name is unfamiliar. Maybe he was not particularly outstanding before, but this year he will break through 10 seconds and reach 9.95 seconds in one breath.
Compared with his previous performance, which was always around 10 seconds 20 to 10 seconds 30, he has improved too much. Then he will remain stable at around 10 seconds until 2019. He can be regarded as a peak player whose overall strength has been maintained for a long time. .
In addition, Guliyev, who has been troubled by injuries before, is the talent born in the 90s. He will also choose to make a comeback in this game. After 2009, his strength plummeted, but this year his indoor competition results are still very good. Brilliant, reaching a career-best 6.50+, but unfortunately his overall 100-meter score this year is not known. If he wants to break 10, he will have to wait until after 2015. Secondly, there is Chambers, the famous medicine king of Kitty Eagle Country. , he will also participate in this competition.
And in order to kill Su Shen in this battle, he will prepare more seriously than the last time when he ran around casually.
After all, he could also feel the chance of defeating this Eastern dragon.
It is estimated that this year is the only one left.
Although the media propaganda said that he was dying, or that the future was bleak, and that it was a physical endurance defect of yellow people, most sprinters did not believe this at all.
Especially Chambers, a group of relatively high-level players, believe that Su Shen, at such a young age, can at least recover within 10 seconds, or even higher, without any problem.
So they actually acquiesce in their hearts.
There is a very tacit acquiescence.
This year is the best chance to kill him.
It may also be your only chance.
As an athlete, I always get fucked hard, and I always want to win a little bit, to give myself psychological comfort. Even if my family or children ask me about it in the future, I can point to the video and say, look, I also beat him back then. .
Besides, Chambers himself had trouble with Su Shen. When Su Shen first came to Europe to compete, he had just come back from suspension and mocked Su Shen, although he was fucked to death.
But he still had discord with Su Shen.
Inexplicably, he just didn't want to lose to yellow and Asian people.
This is a typical manifestation of black people's psychological superiority in track and field events.
Chambers is one of the poster children for this mentality.
Therefore, seeing that Su Shen was not in good condition, he immediately actively signed up to participate in the Stockholm Indoor Games. Such a good opportunity did not come often.
How could you let it go after seeing it?
Thinking about it, he felt it was worthwhile and relieved to be able to beat up this Oriental who had been riding on his face all year round.
[Su’s record of being invincible in Europe will be ended by me here. 】
Chambers said confidently.
When he made this statement, many people actually realized that Su Shen had not lost in a European competition for a long, long, long time.
In the indoor competition, they maintain the record of winning the finals.
This really makes the European developed countries who think that their track and field and sports strength is higher than that of Asian countries have a series of problems.
I really hope someone can break this situation.
Apart from Chambers, there is also LeMaitre, the white light who is crazy about the media, and he has no choice but to not participate.
After all, compared to Chambers and other African Americans who are not originally in Europe, this gives white men the feeling that they have not really promoted a pure white man to make them achieve anything.
So Lemaitrie has to go even if he doesn't go here.
Sometimes the so-called implicit political correctness in Europe and the United States is crazier than you think, and the so-called freedom is the highest... It's just nonsense.
Lemaitrie also sent a text message to Su Shen before the game. It probably meant that he didn't want to take advantage of others' danger to come and participate, but he really had no choice.
But Su Shen "didn't like hearing this".
Just kidding, now is the time we need people.
Now that you are here, you should give your best.
This is the embodiment of the professional spirit of professional athletes.
There is no need to say such words in the future.
When you come, you should try your best.
It doesn’t matter what state the opponent is in.
Treat me with the best respect.
It means giving your best when competing on the same field.
When Lemaitrie said this, he almost cried while holding the phone on the other side of the screen. He really didn't expect that Su Shen would be so reasonable and didn't care about his current situation at all, and even encouraged him in turn. Let him give it his all.
Take a look.
Why can people succeed?
Why can people stand at this height?
It’s just that their structure is bigger than ours.
We must learn from Professor Su.
…
On the second day, Lemaitrie publicly stated: He believes that the strongest person in the history of sprinting is Bolt, but the strongest person in the 60 meters is Su Shen.
In addition, there are also Julian Reus and some famous European players here. Su Shen looked at the official entry list and silently touched his chin and said: "It's not bad, the overall quality is quite high. Yes, it seems that group of people helped me publicize a lot."
"Sure enough, when it comes to how hard you work on things, the enemy works the hardest."
"That's true."
If these people knew that Su Shen thought so, and their active propaganda calling for famous European generals to sign up to slay the dragon would look like a large gathering of tool men in Su Shen's eyes, they would probably be half angry to death at first.
…
The next day, the game begins.
Stockholm Indoor Stadium.
The 60-meter hurdles event was in front. Liu Xiang took the power of his best SB result of the season and ran first in the group, 7.60 seconds, easily advancing through the ranks.
The level of the preliminaries was really not high.
No wonder the media said before the game that this was a double play between Liu Xiang and Robles.
The rest is a warm-up for the two of them.
Robles also easily won the first place, and the two entered the finals, which was expected by everyone.
The two are in a competitive relationship, and Liu Xiang won the Triple Crown at the World Championships in this life, and in the Birmingham Indoor Championships, he defeated Robles with his best 60 meters, even leading by more than one meter.
This also made Robles determined to come back in this game.
Otherwise, how can I defend my title at the London Olympics?
After all, Oliver's soft-footed shrimp is not within the scope of Robles' consideration at all, because although Oliver competes in small competitions, he has never performed well in big competitions.
Since I can't perform well in the competition.
No matter how well he performs in the small competition, he will not be considered.
Therefore, Robles believes that his biggest competitor this year is Liu Xiang, who has returned from injury. If he can defeat Liu Xiang, then he thinks that his game is stable.
No other short-span player can pose a threat to him.
His sentiments resonated with his team.
This is the development of history, and it is so unexpected. At this stage, it is estimated that the whole world, including the two of them, has never thought about the real danger that is suddenly brewing.
Comparing Liu Xiang and Robles, there is no controversy at all. It must be a drama between the two heroes. The situation at 60 meters is a little different.
Many people want to defeat Su Shen and make a profit for themselves.
Who said that Su Shen is now the real king of the 60-meter indoor competition? Whether it is honors or personal strength, he is the undisputed number one in the history of this event. For competitive sports, if you want to be famous, defeating the strongest player in the event is undoubtedly the best way to become famous and gain traffic.
As for the strongest person, he is still not in the strongest state yet.
That doesn't matter at all.
Anyway, most ordinary track and field fans and those advertising manufacturers can't tell the specific status difference at all.
Just win.
As long as you win, you can double your worth and double your contract.
So based on this point.
This competition in Stockholm is enough to attract many famous indoor athletes training in Europe to come and participate.
Regardless of fame or personal interests, winning this game is a double gain.
Naturally, many people are flocking to it.
Otherwise, if you were replaced by Su Shen last year, even if you were one of these so-called authoritative media or the three major news agencies, if they screamed at the top of their lungs, there probably wouldn't be a few people who would respond.
It is absolutely impossible to have such a positive scene like this year.
Lemaitrie has always had a favorable impression of Su Shen.
The first is because Su Shen started to become famous early in this timeline and even dominated the European indoor competition. This also gave LeMatri, a sprinter who is also non-black, more recognition and attention.
The second is that Su Shen once came to comfort him when he was nervous in his first competition. And I told him what he did wrong.
These few points are enough for Lemaitrie to have a different favorable impression of Su Shen than other athletes on this field.
Even if Su Shen hadn't told him that that day, he would probably have felt that he was "taking advantage of others' danger" and was not a "gentleman".
Su Shen also greeted him, facing the other opponents who looked at him with green eyes, as if they were about to step on him in the next moment to achieve their own achievements.
Face these looks.
Su Shen could only say.
Um.
Bravo.
That's the momentum.
It's this look.
If you don't look at me like this.
On the contrary, I am having some difficulty.
Bang————————————
"Su Shen's activation reaction is okay."
"Steady acceleration."
"The speed is very fast, and I feel good when I get up. Soon... I'm in front?! This feels a bit like before."
Yang Jian was originally worried that if Su Shen left the country and Asia, he would no longer have any advantages and it would be difficult to win.
Su Shen told him now that this was not the case.
In the preliminaries, he easily defeated Guliyev, a genius born in the 1990s.
"Su Shen let go a little in the end and crossed the finish line in 6 seconds 58. With this shot, Su Shen ran very fast in the preliminaries."
"I just hope that such a good state can be continued in the final two hours later."
Su Shen's performance also made Chambers and other famous European players who wanted to make a fuss about this game more certain in their hearts...
He is no longer the Su Shen he was before.
Whether it’s running style, movement, or rhythm.
He is no longer the guy who made his scalp numb just by looking at him.
Then this...
You have a chance yourself.
Get rid of him if you have a chance.
Chambers looked at the slow-motion replay on the big screen, so his horns showed some ferocious expressions: "At this level, I'll make you kneel down in a moment."
When he thought that he could make Su Shen, who was recognized as the most promising person in the world, look disappointed because he lost the game in front of him, he shook his head helplessly.
he just……
I feel that my body is invulnerable to all poisons.
A wide variety of medications.
All are boiling.
Of course he doesn't know.
A few days after the last Asian Indoor Championships, Musial Francis was found to be involved in drugs and might be suspended again.
Although even if he knew, he would still take risks.
After all, the drug team he found in his last life was quite smart. It wasn't until he retired that he revealed it, and everyone knew... that he had actually always had the habit of taking drugs.
And all kinds of medicines are used.
It’s just that his drug team was more advanced, and the doping testing methods at the time couldn’t detect it at all.
So he is also quite confident in his pharmaceutical team.
It's impossible not to take drugs anyway.
My achievement of "invulnerable to all poisons" is still a dozen short.
How can this not be done together?
Su Shen noticed Chambers' cold gaze. He first looked at him for three seconds, and then walked over and patted Chambers on the shoulder with a warm smile:
"Come on, keep that gaze."
"Look at me like this in the finals."
"I won't agree to anything less."
Chambers:? ? ?
His originally cold and fierce mood was suddenly disturbed by Su Shen's words, and he became uneasy.
ps: Just to add, there are still normal updates today!
