Let's be a world champion first! [sports]

After the men's 400-meter sprint preliminaries, track and field fans were delighted with a little confusion.

But what is certain is that China's men's 400-meter sprint record has been refreshed again in a very short period of time-this is a good thing anyway!

Yu Shuang advanced to the semi-finals in the preliminaries, which was expected by most people, but Yu Shuang's performance in the preliminaries exceeded everyone's imagination.

After the men's 400-meter preliminaries, the women's 200-meter preliminaries also started. In the women's 200-meter event, only Lin Xi of the Chinese team qualified for the 200-meter competition.

As the No.200 Chinese women's 1-meter Lin Xi, although there is still a certain distance from the world's first-class level in terms of strength, she still failed to stop her in the preliminaries. In the preliminaries, she played very well. With a season-best time of 22 seconds, she won the third place in the preliminaries group and successfully advanced to the semi-finals of the women's 91-meter sprint.

In addition to the men's 400m and women's 200m preliminaries, the focus of tonight's event is still on Su Qian's upcoming men's 200m sprint semi-final.

Although from the perspective of the schedule, the semi-final of the men's 200-meter sprint is not friendly to domestic track and field fans, but many track and field fans are willing to set the alarm clock, even if they get up in the middle of the night to watch the game, I don't want to miss this men's 200m semi-final.

When the time was a little closer to the start of the game, Su Qian also waved to Xing Yuanzhi and others, and followed the staff to the warm-up venue.

At the warm-up preparation venue, the 24 contestants in the semi-finals have all arrived one after another, and are gradually starting their own warm-up preparations according to the order in which they played.

When Su Qian arrived at the preparation venue, many players who were warming up noticed him. Among them were Aflock and Jabari whom Su Qian met when he participated in a series of training games overseas last year.

Of course, Japan's Keigo Miyagi is also among them. As for another Japanese contestant, Kimura Yoshihiro, he did not perform well in the preliminaries. He only ran 20 seconds and failed to win the 40-meter semi-final. Eligibility.

After seeing Su Qian, Everock smiled and greeted Su Qian from a distance.

Budapest's official webcast has an exclusive channel for the preparation venue, and some sports fans will watch the players' warm-up preparations, and at the same time report the mentality of learning, wanting to know how these top players prepare before the game starts How to warm up.

Among the audience, some people noticed that after Su Qian entered the door, he attracted the attention of many people, including international famous players like Everock who greeted Su Qian.

Su Qian's popularity in China and Asia is already very high, but foreign track and field fans don't know much about Su Qian. Some people are curious after seeing Everock's greeting, and some just glance over it .

On the other hand, on INS, the group of teenagers named "Asian Youth Players", who have actually read "Su Qian Research Institute Members", are also staying up all night waiting for the live broadcast. After Su Qian's greeting, they went to patrol Su Qian's INS fan list, and they saw Everock's INS account on it.

From the very beginning, Su Qian and Clark were referred to as the "Asian Athletics Twin Stars", and later the code names of Su Qian and Clark gradually became "Devil Twins", "Great Demon King Qian and Great Demon King Clark". Young contestants from other Asian countries have changed their feelings towards Su Qian and Clark.

Speaking of the current stage, these young Asian players have gradually entered a mode of smashing cans and wrestling.

To put it simply, at this stage, Su Qian already has the U100 world record in the 200m and 18m dual events. If he improves a little more or less, there is no big difference!

Any progress made by Su Qian now, to them, is a psychedelic feeling of 'it seems to have improved, but not fully improved', which is very good and perfect.

Moreover, Su Qian's achievement is quite useful to stimulate people sometimes.

比如吧，苏谦和克拉克，他们17岁的百米就跑到了9秒99，而U20的百米世界纪录也才9秒97。

--Let's see!If you U20 players don't work hard, the record will be surpassed by the U18 players!

Of course, the vast majority of these young players are also skeptical. By next year, this U20 record may really be lost.

After all, by next year's outdoor season, Su Qian and Clark will already be U20 players, and there will probably be a new record battle by then.

As for tonight, they have already decided to watch tonight and tomorrow night. They want to see with their own eyes whether Su Qian can break the U18's 18-meter world record in the final stage of the U200 and surpass this record. Take it completely into his own hands.

After all, his previous record of 20 seconds was only tied for the record. With Su Qian's level, how could he do it without breaking the record thoroughly?

There is a lot of turmoil on the foreign Internet, and on the domestic Internet, there are also many late-night parties who have stayed up to the present with great energy.

After all, in the 200-meter race today and tomorrow, it was Su Qian who said in person that he wanted to challenge the limit and break through the two races. If Su Qian did break through himself and set the U18 record in these two races, they didn't. Seeing the live broadcast for the first time?

This possibility is definitely not allowed to exist anyway!

And in the middle of the night, waiting seems a bit boring. In addition to the sprint games tonight, there is also a need to pay attention to the women's javelin qualifying round. The Chinese team did not win the rest of the events. After qualifying for the competition, the audience felt a little panicked when they saw it, and started chatting on the Internet.

The topic of gossip is mainly around Su Qian, and the focus is to highlight Su Qian's "times come and go".

After all, the track and field national team had already released Su Qian's final group list for today. In the semi-final group, Su Qian successfully avoided one of the death groups.

The death group was comparable to Su Qian's death group in the [-]-meter semi-finals. Among them were Mustachim from the US team and Ikepek from Nigeria.

这两位，是本赛季200米的世界最好成绩和次好成绩，两人分别在本赛季中跑出19秒61和19秒69。

To sum up, they are all shocking results.

And in this group, there are Aflock who just greeted Su Qian, and Jabari from Trinidad and Tobago who Su Qian also knows, and Song Yitang from Chinese Taipei.

If Su Qian really got into this group, the track and field fans would probably really suffocate in place.

Fortunately, Su Qian managed to avoid this group. Although there were strong players from the United States and Canada in the group, it was not as outrageous as Song Yitang's group.

Speaking of which, the two famous players of the Taipei team had very average luck in this World Championships.

The [-]-meter Wei Ruoheng failed to qualify for the World Championships last year, but with his world ranking, he finally qualified to participate in the play-in round, and won the preliminaries by virtue of his outstanding performance in the play-in round qualifications.

It's a pity that although Wei Ruoheng entered the preliminaries of the World Championships, he failed to show his ideal state, and finally had to leave the preliminaries with hatred.

In comparison, the 200-meter Song Yitang is much better. He successfully qualified for the World Championships during the assessment period of the World Championships. At the same time, he performed well in the preliminaries and successfully reached the semi-finals. Surprisingly, he actually encountered such a semi-final lineup in the semi-final stage.

Although Song Yitang's strength is outstanding, he has not yet broken the 20-second barrier. Among the players in his group, not to mention Mustachim and Ekpek, are Everock and Jabari. For the two, the PB is also around 19 seconds.

For Song Yitang, even if he broke the boat, he might not be able to get the desired result.

[To be honest, when I first saw Qianshao and Lucanus in the same group, I felt chills. I wondered if Qianshao was drawn to the death group again?Until I saw Song Yitang's group...]

[Same world, same mood.When I saw Qianshao's group list, I was autistic at first, but when I saw Song Yitang's group, I immediately thought about it! 】

[Upstairs, you are autistic and want to drive very fast? 】

[Oh, I still want to praise Ouhuang Clark here, thank you Ouhuang, have you seen Qianshao's selfie and the live broadcast of the warm-up venue?Ouhuang's keepsake body protection, modest and stable! 】

【Tsk, the friend upstairs is right, thank you for the Ouhuang's token body protection, otherwise we would be less fortunate... Thinking about that scene, it couldn't be too beautiful. 】

[Speaking of which, it's just a joke, it may not be easy for us Qianshao group to advance. 】

[Does this still need to be said?This is the semi-final stage of the World Athletics Championships. Those who can advance to the finals will be the top eight in the world. In our track and field events, only the champions of the World Championships and the Olympic Games can be called world champions. , For this level of competition, even Mustachim may not be able to say that he can successfully advance 100%, right? 】

As soon as this conversation came out, most of these track and field fans were taken aback, and then they woke up - yes, this is the semi-final of the World Championships!You can't really take the 200-meter event lightly because of the historic medal win in the [-]-meter event two days ago, right?

Thinking of this, the audience restrained their previous casual attitude and began to nervously wait for the official opening of the 200-meter semi-final.

Su Qian's semi-final group this time is the third group of the semi-final. Although there is pressure in this group, it is also beneficial. The results of the remaining players in the first two groups are also known.

Then in the third group, even if you don't make it to the top two and advance directly, it is also a good plan to be able to clearly know the results of the previous players and finally sprint to the ranking of the remaining players.

In the live broadcast room of the sports channel, Li Hai and Lin Xuwen were also discussing this issue.

"Su Qian's match today is not comparable."

At this moment, the 200-meter semi-final is about to begin. Li Hai and Lin Xuwen are discussing against the lists of the three groups. They both believe that in the current group of the 200-meter semi-final, the 200-meter promotion is very likely. It will be the same as the 100m cut.

In other words, it is possible that the remaining top two places in the 200-meter race will all fall into the first group of the semi-finals—that is, the death group where Song Yitang is.

If this expected guess comes true, then when it is Su Qian's turn to enter the third group of the semi-finals, what Su Qian can fight for is very likely to be the top two places directly advanced.

However, Su Qian's group includes Marcus from the US team and Lucanus from Canada. Their best times this season are 19 seconds and 73 seconds respectively. Ten grades.

How easy is it for Su Qian to compete for the direct promotion spot among these two players?

After Su Qian left the waiting room to prepare for the game, the atmosphere between Xing Yuanzhi and others in the backcourt lounge seemed not so relaxed.

"The semi-final is a hurdle after all..." Xing Yuanzhi sighed slightly.

In fact, they have also done corresponding data analysis specifically. Su Qian's chances of successfully qualifying for the final are not very high. Xing Yuanzhi also knows that it is the first time that a player has entered the final of the 200-meter event after so many generations. For one thing, how could it be possible to rely on Su Qian, a child who participated in the competition for the first time, to directly rush into the dream pinnacle of the world's top players?

"Oh, I'm a normal person, but I haven't cultivated enough yet." Xing Yuanzhi said with a smile and shook his head.

In the waiting room, Tian Wenhan and You Yun were there at the moment, but everyone didn't say much, and more attention was focused on the field in front of them. At this time, the men's 200-meter sprint semi-final was the first place. A group of players has already stepped onto the field.

Among the players in the first group, the atmosphere of confrontation between each other is very obvious at this time.

Whether it is Mustachim, Ekpek, Everok, Jabari or Song Yitang, none of these players is willing to give up hope of advancing to the final.

For them, the place in the final is what they must win, and the number of promotion places in the final is limited. Who can get this invitation letter?

In the sound of the starter's instructions on the live broadcast, the contestants squatted on their own starting blocks, and then with the firing of the starting gun, the prelude to tonight's 200-meter sprint semi-final officially kicked off!

In the semi-finals of this group, Song Yitang's starting performance was actually good, and he ran beyond his usual level, but the opponents he faced in front of him were really too strong.

Both Mustachim and Ekpek's cornering starts are extremely oppressive. The two of them are extremely aggressive on the track. Their strong explosive power and cornering ability make them very aggressive at the beginning. Gives an illusion of invincibility.

Especially the players whose track is close to them are likely to be suppressed by their pure aura, and their starting rhythm will also affect the original rhythm of other players.

These are two players who can be said to be extremely destructive, but have very little interference from other players.

For example, Everock and Jabari have relatively rich experience in the same arena with Mustachim. They can fight against the unique momentum of the two of them on the arena. Other players on the arena are also trying their best to avoid it. Regardless of the impact of this kind of momentum on oneself, but there are players who have never played with Mustachim and the others. At this stage, even if they try their best to control it, they will inevitably stagnate in their momentum.

Song Yitang, Mustachim, and Ekpek's tracks are far away, so fortunately they were not affected too much and were able to maintain their usual level of sprinting on the track.

But it is a pity that even though he maintained his usual level, he was not able to run out of the top state beyond his usual level.

In the end, Song Yitang's time was 20 seconds, which was already a good result of his performance, but unfortunately he still fell to fifth in the group and lost the qualification to advance to the final.

In front of Song Yitang, Mustachim and Ekpek won the direct promotion places in the first group of the semi-finals without any accident. Their scores were 19 seconds and 83 seconds respectively.

Eflock and Jabari, respectively, ranked first and second among the remaining players with a time of 19 seconds and 98 seconds.

Looking at the final results of the first group of the semi-finals, Li Hai and Lin Xuwen sighed slightly in the live broadcast room: "The men's [-]-meter semi-finals are wonderful again!"

20 seconds 03, only fourth in the group?

If this were an ordinary group, the time of 20 seconds would be enough to win the first place in a group.

As long as you look at the results of the previous two competitions, you will know that sometimes, some lucky groups can win the first place in the group with a time of 20 seconds.

However, the past is the past.

This year's World Athletics Championships, at least in the sprint event, the strength of the players and the standards for promotion are on the rise. This shows that the whole world is currently in a period of rising sprint performance. The advantage is that the audience can see many exciting events. Even some dusty world records are likely to be constantly refreshed.

As for the bad?

Of course, in such a world-class competition, for a country like China that is relatively lacking in sprint talents, it is more difficult for players to advance to the finals of the World Championships.

"20 seconds 03!" Lin Xuwen also sighed.

This also means that if Su Qian fails to win the second place in the third group of the semi-finals later, then Su Qian's road to advancement is basically hopeless.

他们当然知道苏谦想要挑战自己的U18纪录的事情，但是此前苏谦的U18纪录也不过是20秒13，和20秒03之间，还有足足0.1秒的差距。

In an arena where every improvement of 0.01 seconds requires all efforts, a gap of 0.1 seconds is tantamount to a natural chasm.

In the backcourt lounge, Xing Yuanzhi and the others were also silent for a while after seeing Jabari's time of 20 seconds.

Xing Yuanzhi quickly turned to You Yun and said, "Xiao You, after the game is over, you should pay attention to Su Qian's mental state."

You Yun nodded, but laughed again, he said: "If it is because of the difference in strength that he failed to advance, I think Xiaoqian will have no problem."

Su Qian has a natural respect for the result of victory or defeat. He will continue to train to improve his strength and catch up with the object he wants to surpass. If it is because of his poor performance or lack of strength, he will not Will be discouraged, will only be more excited to chase.

After leading Su Qian for more than two years, You Yun deeply felt that Su Qian seemed to be born to belong to the track and field track, whether it was his optimism, his pursuit of victory and speed, or when he encountered a short-term bottleneck. without flinching.

You Yun is glad that he was able to meet a player like Su Qian and accompany him to grow year after year, as if the young self who had collapsed countless times in his dreams was gradually infected and redeemed.

When Xing Yuanzhi heard You Yun's words, he turned his head and glanced at him, shook his head, and said: "Then don't forget to take a good look, don't make any problems!"

After hearing this sentence, You Yun smiled gently and nodded: "Okay."

At the stage of the second group of the semi-finals, as everyone expected before, the second group of semi-finalists did not manage to surpass the results of the first group. In the end, the top two players of the second group had scores of 20 seconds 02 and 20 seconds 13.

After the first two groups of competitions are over, finally, the team that has attracted the most domestic attention will finally be on the field.

In the auditorium, although there were not many Chinese spectators who had chased all the way from China to Budapest to watch the game, there were some. Although they could not sit together, they were holding national flags in their respective seats and shouting loudly. Cheer for Su Qian.

The 'spiritual running master' Wei Zhecheng was also among these people. He was holding the national flag in his hand. After seeing Su Qian appearing on the stage, he was tearing his throat excitedly to cheer for Su Qian.

He watched the first two semi-finals. Wei Zhecheng also knew that other people in China should have very little judgment on Su Qian's promotion. Even a track and field fan not far from him was watching the 20-second competition. After the result of 03, he also seemed a little desperate.

However, Wei Zhecheng has a lot of confidence in Su Qian. Looking at Su Qian who is concentrating on preparing for the game on the field, Wei Zhecheng always feels that Su Qian's current appearance is full of confidence. No worse than Marcus and Lucanus in the same field.

Yes!

It must be successful, right?

Wei Zhecheng waved the flag in his hand vigorously, and shouted loudly for Su Qian again.

On the field, in front of the track.

Su Qian is on the seventh track this time, which is a very good track. Although domestic audiences feel that it is a pity that Su Qian is not on the ninth track, Su Qian himself is not entangled in the track.

In front of the track at this time, every player is seriously making final preparations for his semi-final, and no one wants to let go of possible hopes.

In the live broadcast room, Li Hai said in a deep voice: "The third group of men's 200-meter sprint semi-finals is about to start. No matter what, I hope Su Qian can achieve an ideal result!"

Li Hai didn't want to badmouth Su Qian before the competition, so he didn't talk about whether he could advance to the final, but only said that he hoped that Su Qian could achieve ideal results.

Lin Xuwen didn't say anything, and also sent a blessing to Su Qian.

Not long after Li Hai and Lin Xuwen finished sending their blessings, the voice of "take your place" rang out on the field and on the radio.

"The game is about to start!"

In the sound of the starter's command, the eight contestants in the third group of the semi-final squatted on their own starting blocks, and then waited intently for the next new command to come.

On the starting block of the seventh track, Su Qian stepped on the starting block with one foot in front of the other, propped his hands on the ground, and waited for the follow-up instructions.

puff puff.

In the noisy scene, he could still hear his own heartbeat. This faint feeling of excitement made him eager to start the game!

Finally, during the broadcast, the voice of 'ready' came, and everyone put their hands on the ground and raised their hips, taking their respective ready positions.

Then - "Bang"!

The starting gun is fired, and the race begins! !

"Let's run!"

In the commentary room, both Lin Xuwen and Li Hai were highly tense. While observing every change on the field, Su Qian's starting reaction in this group was still very fast, and the starting reaction of 0.143 seconds ranked third in the field. , two runners outpaced him at the start, but they weren't Marcus or Lucanus.

However, the two runners who were the first and second in the starting reaction were only close to the starting reaction, and the acceleration connection after the start and the acceleration state after the start were not very ideal.

Obviously, these are two runners who tried to gain some advantage in the starting stage at the risk of some early runs, but although they had a very good starting response, they did not run very well in the starting stage.

As for Marcus and Lucanus, the two of them scored only 0.156 seconds and 0.167 seconds at the start.

For them, to get the results of this group of competitions steadily, not to start fouls is the key point, so they will not try to grab the limited starting reaction time at the starting stage, as long as the reaction is not too slow, it is acceptable.

Su Qian didn't think about it so much. Before the start, he felt a sense of excitement and wanted to run on this track with all his strength.

From the start, he is not a player who will give others a sense of oppression like Mustachim and the others, but his curve start and acceleration are very smooth, and the center of gravity of his body is very stable from the start to the lifting stage. There is no longer the problem of upper body shaking caused by core instability.

In the corner stage, the players on the left and right tracks of Su Qian are from the Netherlands and South Africa respectively. The South African player on the sixth track originally thought that his explosive power is good enough, and it is very likely that he can directly overtake the front in the acceleration stage. Su Qian, but he didn't expect at all that after the whole curve phase ended, he couldn't catch up with Su Qian who was in front of him at all.

Not even the distance between the two has shrunk...

How can this be? !

He is an insider!After the corner, if he wasn't behind, how could the distance between him and Su Qian not be reduced? !

It wasn't until he saw that the distance between himself and the Dutch player on the eighth track had really narrowed that he finally realized that it wasn't that there was a problem with the curve between him and Su Qian, but that Su Qian's speed in the curve stage had exceeded So much so that even if he had the insider advantage, he couldn't close the distance with Su Qian.

In the live broadcast room of the sports channel, Li Hai and Lin Xuwen couldn't help shouting after seeing Su Qian's position after the curve cut straight.

"Fourth! Su Qian is currently in the fourth position!!"

"Su Qian's speed is still accelerating, and he is rushing towards the third place!"

God? !what happened? !

Even though Su Qian's overall speed rhythm does have an advantage in the initial stage of 200 meters, Su Qian does not give people a sense of threat on the field, so that many people lack vigilance against Su Qian's speed until they see him When he really appeared in this position, he didn't even notice and react immediately.

Currently in the third place is a famous player from Turkey. He thought that his biggest challenge in this game was to hit the top two rankings, but he did not expect that after just turning a corner and cutting straight, he was no .3 position is already threatened.

"Ahhh! Come on!! Su Qian, come on!!"

In the auditorium at the scene, Wei Zhecheng was shouting loudly and frantically, intending to let his voice be heard on the field to cheer for Su Qian.

I don't know if Su Qian did receive cheers from the audience. After cutting the straight from the corner, Su Qian's speed became faster and faster. The momentum of sprinting towards the finish line finally attracted more players for the first time. Notice that a player on the seventh track has gradually approached and surpassed the famous Turkish player who was originally third.

"Third!! Su Qian has reached the third position!!"

"Come on! Su Qian, come on!!"

On the field, the distance between Marcus and Lucanus in front and Su Qian was not too far. After Su Qian surpassed the original No.3, his speed remained at a high point, even to the end In the 50-meter stage, Su Qian's speed broke out again, which made the distance between him and Lucanus, who is currently in second place, getting closer and closer.

Puff, puff.

Su Qian felt the boiling excitement in his body, and felt the steps brought by his steps on the ground to fly forward again and again.

faster!

He wants to go faster!

Su Qian's eyes were firmly fixed on the finishing line in front of him. He didn't care who was in front of him. He just wanted to go faster and surpass everything!

This kind of excitement and anticipation tumbling and burning in his body, the power fed back from the ground and the power gradually accumulated in his body gave him the driving force to keep moving forward.

Even the soreness caused by the accumulation of lactic acid in the muscles seemed to be transformed into a force that stimulated his nerves and made him run forward even more excitedly.

"Su Qian!! Su Qian is approaching Lucanus!!!"

In the commentary room, seeing this scene, Li Hai's eyes almost popped out. He explained this loudly, and at the same time cheered for Su Qian with all his strength.

The audience in the live broadcast room were also crazy at this time.

【Ah ah ah ah ah! !Modesty! ! !Go! ! ! 】

The last 30 meters, 20 meters...

When Lucanus noticed that Su Qian seemed to be approaching him on the seventh lane and was going to overtake him, he was already very close to the finish line. Lucanus thought he still had the advantage, but after he finally sprinted across the line , Looking back at the audience at the scene and at the large electronic screen at the scene, he realized in a daze that he was wrong.

At this time, in the commentary room of the sports channel, the cheers of Li Hai and Lin Xuwen seemed to have spread throughout the night sky.

"Congratulations to Su Qian!!! With the second place in the group, he won the promotion place for the final of this World Championship!!"
