Reborn Liverpool

Chapter 43

The 19-meter competition is always the focus of the track and field competition. This time, the World Junior Competition has arranged the 20-meter competition on the last two days of the [-]th and [-]th.

参加本次世少赛百米项目的各国选手有218人，预赛分了28组，8人组22个、7人组6个，每组取前两名，最后再取28个No.3中排前8位的；64人得复赛分8组，每组取前两名；半决赛2组，每组取前4名进入最后的决赛。

The preliminaries were held on the morning of the 19th. After a fierce battle, Zhang Mai and Luo Wenyi successfully entered the semi-finals, and Tang Yao, a Chuanyin boy, was eliminated.

The rematch in the afternoon was uneventful, Zhang Mai and Luo Wenyi continued to advance, and Tang Yao cheered by the side.

In the evening, the delegation held a summary mobilization meeting. So far, the Huaguo delegation has not received any gold medals, only three silver and seven bronze medals. Li Tian is helpless.

In the semi-finals on the morning of the 20th, Luo Wenyi's group started first. Luo Wenyi ran 10 seconds in the semi-finals and ranked fifth in the group. The situation is not optimistic.

The "Japanese Bolt" Sani Brown, who was in the same group as Luo Wenyi, ran 10 seconds, setting a new record and cheering the Japanese delegation.

"Zhang Mai, it's all up to you!"

Li Tian's thousands of words were turned into six simple words, and the other members of the Hua Guo delegation were completely silent.

"Okay, let's give Teacher Li a face-saving first, and break a small record first."

Zhang Mai was in a calm mood, and dismissed the enthusiastic Japanese delegation next to him.

The second group of semi-finals is about to start, and Zhang Mai also stepped onto the starting line.

The starter says the password in standard English: "Onyourmarks...set..."

He raised the starting gun, waited until all the athletes had stopped, and then slammed the trigger.

Zhang Mai rushed out immediately, but there were three people on both sides who were faster than Zhang Guan, namely Japan's Eguchi Kenhito, Brazilian Silva and British player Miller.The screen immediately displayed everyone's starting reaction time, and the fastest was the Brazilian Silva, reaching 0.133 seconds!
"0.153, it's so fast!" Li Tian reconfirmed Zhang Mai's data on the screen.

While Li Tian was staring at the display of the start reaction time, the athletes on the track had already run a distance of 50 meters.At this time, it is Zhang Mai who is in the leading position, and Japan's Eguchi Kenhito, Brazilian Silva and British player Miller form the second echelon, and the three are striving for No.2.

Japan's Eguchi Kenhito set off a stormy sea.He didn't keep his strength, but worked hard to play his highest level, trying to stand on the starting line of the final with Sani Brown. In his original plan, he should be in the absolute lead at this moment, far ahead of the other players. throw off.But today's situation is unexpected. The Hua people in this group have already left in a hurry, and I can only strive for No.2.

Zhang Mai's speed did not decrease, and he quickly crossed the finish line.

"Baga, this Chinese man is no slower than Sani Brown." Jiangguchi Jianren suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart, because he knew that he could not catch up with Zhang Guan's speed.

Zhang Mai did not use "Bolt's running shoes". In his opinion, running within 10 seconds and 20 is enough.

"Good job! Overtaken! Come on! First!" Li Tian watched as Zhang Guan crossed the finish line first, shaking the towel in his hand excitedly, cheering loudly, and bursts of waves came from beside him. cheers.

张迈跑出了10秒17的成绩，这个成绩不光破了萨尼布朗刚刚创造的10秒30的赛会新纪录，还打破了由日本选手桐生祥秀保持的10秒19的世界少年纪录。

Tang Yao excitedly rushed to Li Tian, ​​dancing and said, "Mr. Li, did you see that Zhang Mai ran 10 seconds, breaking the world junior record!"

Li Tian looked very calm, he nodded expressionlessly and said, "I saw it, it ran well."

But no one noticed that Li Tian's trembling hands in his pockets had betrayed his current mood.

The score of 10 seconds obviously exceeded Li Tian's expectations.
"Zhang Mai will definitely defeat Sani Brown in the final to win the championship!" Li Tian couldn't help looking forward to the future.

At this time, a staff member of the Hua Guo delegation came over with two reporters.

"Mr. Li, these two reporters who are the sponsors of the International Athletic Federation and the conference want to interview Zhang Mai of our team."

Li Tian frowned slightly. It was the official reporter of the International Athletics Federation who came here, so he had to give some face, and it was impossible for the official reporter to ask some sharp or difficult questions.

"Okay, let's go to the rest area." After Li Tian finished speaking, he pointed to the rest area in the distance, then waved his hand and called Zhang Mai closer, and said softly, "Xiao Zhang, there are two reporters who want to interview you."

The female reporter who interviewed Zhang Mai was a young female reporter from Japan's TBS TV station.

"Mr. Zhang, hello, my name is Yoshitomo Kimura, can we interview now?" the female reporter said in fluent English.

"Okay, let's start the interview." Zhang Guan also spoke pure British English.

"In the race just now, you ran 10 seconds. As far as I know, I have never heard of your name before. I don't know what you can explain." The Japanese female reporter asked.

"Sure enough, the visitor is not kind!" Zhang Guan thought to himself.After thinking about it carefully, I felt that this achievement was a matter of course.

"I'm actually a professional football player. I ran the [-]-meter race casually. This is my explanation." Zhang Mai replied.

This time it was the Japanese female reporter's turn to be surprised. Can a professional player under the age of 17 run so fast?

The female reporter then asked: "Then what is your goal for participating in the World Junior Championships?"

"Of course the championship!" Zhang Mai replied without thinking.

"Champion? You mean champion?" the female reporter confirmed, as if doubting her ears.

Zhang Mai nodded: "Of course I came to the competition to win the championship."

The female reporter would not be surprised if Japan's Sani Brown answered this way, but Zhang Mai's words made the female reporter feel that the young man in front of her was not humble at all.

"That's so arrogant, does he think he can defeat Sani Brown?" A trace of contempt flashed in the eyes of the Japanese female reporter.

She then said, "Japanese young athletes have always been at the forefront of the world in sprint events. So you think you can beat Japanese athletes?"

"I'm talking about the whole world, unless Japan is not on this earth." Zhang Mai said.

Hearing Zhang Guan's answer, the female reporter looked at Zhang Guan in surprise, but then there was anger in her eyes.

"Just because you hit the big lottery once in a while, you dare to treat our Dahe Sani Brown as nothing." The female reporter cursed secretly, but she didn't show it on her expression.

"Thank you for accepting our interview." The female reporter forcefully forced a smile, and ended the interview with her nose in the dust.

At the same time, at the position of the Japanese delegation, Kenhito Eguchi pointed Zhang Mai in the distance to Sani Brown: "Mr. Sani Brown, that is Zhang Mai."

"Baga, in the finals, I must teach this Chinese man a lesson!"

Sani Brown, who has a typical black mixed-race image, actually spewed out standard Japanese curses.

……

Luo Wenyi ran 10 seconds in the semi-finals and ranked 60th. He missed the final by only 9 seconds. Therefore, in the 0.01-meter final held in the afternoon, Zhang Mai's yellow face was particularly eye-catching.

Looking left and right, Zhang Mai saw that Brazilian Silva and British player Miller were in the same group in the semifinals, while Japan's Sani Brown looked more like a black player.

well!Start slowly, and then use "Bolt's running shoes", try to run within 10 seconds, let the Japanese despair!

"Crack!" The crisp sound of the starting gun sounded, and Sani Brown was the first to rush out, followed by several other athletes. Zhang Mai's starting movement was the slowest one.

At the same time, the starting reaction time of the eight people also appeared on the screen. Sani Brown's starting reaction time of 0.138 seconds was perfect; after that, the Brazilian Silva and the British player Miller were all within 0.15 seconds to 0.16 seconds. The time is relatively good; while Zhang Mai is the slowest 0.213 seconds, 0.075 seconds slower than the fastest Sani Brown.

But after only 3 seconds of the game, Zhang Mai caught up with Sani Brown.

"Come on! Come on!" Hua Guo's athletes who were watching the battle from a distance had already started shouting frantically.

"Come on! Come on!" In an inconspicuous corner of the stands, a small number of Colombian overseas Chinese waved the bright red national flag high above their heads.

So what about the slow start reaction? Wearing "Bolt's running shoes" with a speed increase of 10%, Zhang Mai was afraid that he would accidentally break the adult world record.

Starting at 50 meters, Zhang Mai took the lead, throwing others including Sani Brown farther and farther.

Zhang Guan, who was about to cross the line, couldn't control his speed a little bit, so he turned his head and looked around, but this made Sani Brown even more angry.

"I ran so desperately, but you still have the time to look back at me!" Sani Brown felt insulted and became more and more desperate.

"Zhang Mai crossed the line and won! We won!" Huge cheers erupted from the Huaguo delegation, and the athletes hugged each other and shouted regardless of their image.

A gold medal in the men's [-]-meter sprint event has exceeded the task for the Colombian national track and field team this time. This breakthrough achievement is even more remarkable for Li Tian. This gold medal cancels everything out!
Zhang Mai won the championship with an absolute advantage. After crossing the line, he gradually slowed down.

Luo Wenyi and Tang Yao rushed over and hugged Zhang Mai. Although they didn't win the medal, the joy in their hearts was extremely sincere.

The auditorium around the track and field also burst into applause, showing respect for the winner.

9 seconds 93, this is the record left by Zhang Mai in Cali, Colombia, a junior world record that made Sani Brown desperate.

At this moment, Zhang Mai, who was roaring at the end of the [-]-meter track, heard the familiar system voice again:
"Host, please note that the system has issued temporary task completion rewards of 8 speed attribute values, please check."
