The press conference continues, and Director Ma is still the focus of media attention.
I saw a reporter stood up and asked: "Zhang Guan even jumped twice in a row with the best long jump results this year in today's competition. I am sure that Zhang Guan is one of the strongest long jumpers in the world, but I am very curious." , is Zhang Guan so good in normal training?"
Director Ma thought for a while and said: "Actually, Zhang Guan is a competition-oriented player. His performance in formal competitions is often better than in daily practice. Speaking of results, Zhang Guan actually performed better last month. At the Chinese Track and Field Championships, he had already jumped over 8.5 meters, and broke the Asian long jump twice in the competition. However, that competition was a domestic event in China, so fellow reporters may not know about it."
The reporters present all showed expressions of sudden realization.
"It turns out that Zhang Guan had already jumped 8.5 meters a month ago! If this result is placed in a normal international competition, it is possible to win a medal!"
"I broke the Asian long jump record twice. Although I don't know what the Asian record is, but the result of more than 8.5 meters is enough to prove Zhang Guan's strength. It seems that it is no coincidence that Zhang Guan won the Athletics World Cup this time."
While the reporters were talking in low voices, another reporter asked: "Zhang Guan is already the king of sprints. He needs to participate in the 100-meter and 400-meter races at the same time. This is incredible to many people." Things have happened. Now with the addition of a long jump event, Zhang Guan can still win the championship. We all know that a person's energy is limited. How does Zhang Guan allocate his energy? Is there any special training method? ?”
Director Ma was smiling, but he heard something behind the reporter's words. Anyone with a discerning eye would know what the so-called "special training method" refers to.
Director Ma replied calmly: "There are many famous sprinters in the world who can achieve good results in the long jump event. There are similarities between sprint events and long jump events. We all agree on this." We have already known that, so as a sprinter, if you want to practice long jump, you only need to master the skills after jumping. Athletes who want to achieve good results rely on senior talent and hard training. This does not There are no shortcuts or special training methods. I think if you were to interview the star sprinters and long jump athletes in the past, they would give you the same answer."
Just now this reporter wanted to ask a question, but the organizer obviously did not give him another chance. Provoking this kind of topic at the press conference is also something the organizers don't want to see. So the working crowd handed the microphone to another reporter.
The reporter's question was much more normal: "In tomorrow's competition, Zhang Guan still needs to participate in the men's 200-meter dash. I actually don't have the relevant results of Zhang Guan's participation in the 200-meter competition, but as a 100-meter dash As the world record holder in the 400-meter dash, I think Zhang Guan’s 200-meter strength is also extraordinary. Currently, Zhang Guan is also the favorite to win the 200-meter championship. What do you think of tomorrow’s 200-meter race? "
"I would like to explain to all my friends that Zhang Guan participated in the 200-meter dash at the East Asian Games last year and broke the Asian record for the 200-meter dash with a time of 19.98 seconds. Of course, this result is not enough to win the championship in the international arena. , but now almost a year has passed. Zhang Guan has greatly improved both physically and technically. I also look forward to Zhang Guan being able to give his best in tomorrow's 200-meter race. s level!"
…
On the second day of the World Athletics Championships, the first competition was the men's triple jump. There are players in the national team who represented the Asian League, but unfortunately they did not make the top eight.
On the track, the first competition was the hurdle event. Liu Feiren will represent the Asian team.
Among Liu Feiren's opponents, the US team initially sent Wilson, but it was decided not long before the game to replace Wilson with veteran Alan Johnson. The American team sent Robles, a young Cuban player who has just emerged this year, and the European team sent European Championship champion Latvian Olyes. These players all have a chance to win the championship.
After the start of the race, Liu Feiren started a little slowly and was taken ahead by Alan Johnson, while Robles was almost neck and neck with Liu Feiren. Three hurdles later, Liu Feiren took advantage of his technical advantages to gradually close the distance with Alan Johnson, but Johnson performed equally well. He was even better in the final sprint, and finally won the championship with a time of 12.96 seconds. , also broke the competition record. Liu Feiren finished second with a time of 13.03 seconds, and Cuban teenager Robles was third.
In the subsequent 3,000-meter obstacle race, Qatar's 3,000-meter obstacle king won this event with an absolute advantage. He was also the second player to win two gold medals at this track and field World Cup.
After the 3,000-meter race, the women's 200-meter and men's 200-meter races will begin one after another.
In the men's 200-meter race, Obikewelu once again represented the European team, while the American team sent Wallace Spearman, a young athlete who has just emerged in the past two years.
Wallace Spearman is 22 years old this year. His specialty is the 200-meter dash. In college, Spearman won two American University Association track and field championships and represented the United States team in the 2005 World Track and Field Championships. , and finally won a silver medal in the 200-meter event. Spielman is currently regarded as the strongest 200-meter athlete on the U.S. team after Crawford.
The player sent by the American United Team is of course the young Bolt. Now Bolt is also a 200-meter athlete. Although he is still very young, he has as much experience in international competitions as an average veteran. He began to participate in some Central American competitions at the age of 15. In 2002, he won the World Youth Athletics Championships and became the youngest champion in the history of the World Youth Championships. At that time, Zhang Guan was still in high school. Woolen cloth. Later, Bolt also participated in the Athens Olympics, but then was sidelined for nearly a year due to injury. He did not return until the Athletics World Cup.
At this time, Bolt seemed very excited. Competing with Zhang Guan was something he had been looking forward to for a long time. For Bolt at this time, he had never thought about defeating Zhang Guan, but he really hoped to be able to compete in front of Zhang Guan. In front of you, fully demonstrate your strength.
However, American player Spearman didn't think so. This young athlete had always been the strongest 200-meter runner in American universities during his college days, so he had just graduated just when he was a newborn calf and was not afraid of tigers. He was thinking about how to defeat Zhang Guan.
Spearman looked at Zhang Guan, who was tying his shoes, and thought silently: "Zhang Guan, I admit that you are the strongest in the world in both the 100 meters and 400 meters, but now you are competing against 200 meters, in the next race, I will show you how interesting the 200 meters race is! Defeating the so-called king of sprints in the world, haha, it must be a very shocking thing!"
The ambitious Spielman couldn't help laughing when he thought about this. In fact, this kind of people exist in all walks of life. Just like writing online articles, there are many newcomers who always have high ambitions and low abilities when they first enter the industry. They think that their own works are very good and that the works of the great masters are just like this. There is a certain distinction. The mentality of stepping on the steps of a great master every minute, but little did he know that he had just taken the first step. And nine times out of ten, this kind of person will be supervised halfway through writing.
…
"Hello, audience friends, what is about to begin is the men's 200-meter final! This is also the most watched competition today. Zhang Guan, the sprint king, is about to appear in the next competition! Although Zhang Guan once competed last year When I was young, I participated in a 200-meter race in the East Asian Games, but it was only a small-scale sports meeting held among East Asian countries, and the opponent's strength was also very weak. Today, Zhang Guan stood on the international stage of the 200-meter dash for the first time. , debuting in front of audiences around the world for the first time, what kind of surprises will he bring to us? Let us all wait and see!"
"Okay, all the contestants have entered the venue. The one in the first line is..."
The commentator began to introduce the participating athletes one by one. After the introduction, the referee signaled the athletes to stand on the starting line and prepare to start.
“Onyourmarks…set…”
The moment the gun sounded, Bolt was the first to rush out, but other athletes did not move. At this time, the whistle sounded to pause the game, which obviously meant that Bolt had jumped the gun.
Bolt walked back a little embarrassed, but did not forget to smile at Zhang Guan. He was indeed too excited, so he couldn't wait to race faster and rushed out involuntarily.
But then, Bolt quickly adjusted his mentality and stood on the starting block again.
The starting gun sounded again. This time no one jumped the gun and the runners all started smoothly.
The technical characteristic of the American Spearman's technique is that it is not fast in the early stage, but will suddenly exert force in the second half. This technique is very confusing. At first, the opponent thinks that Spearman's speed is average, but when Spearman suddenly starts to accelerate, the rapid change in rhythm will catch the opponent off guard. When the opponent reacts, he is likely to be overtaken by Spearman.
Today, Spielman used exactly this running method. He was not very fast in the first corner. Although there were differences in starting positions, experienced people should be able to see that he was not just behind Zhang. crown, further behind Bolt and Obikeweru.
"Zhang Guan must think that I am very weak now, that's why I run so slowly! I will definitely give you a surprise when I speed up later..." Spielman was looking forward to the moment of his counterattack, but He never realized that he was actually overthinking.
