Manila, Philippines.
Takano Susumu trotted up to Kobayashi Keihe, handed over a piece of paper written in English, and said at the same time: "Coach Kobayashi, I just got the test results. The urine test before the game was normal. Zhang Guan did not use banned substances. Drugs, here’s the lab report.”
"As expected." Kobayashi Keikazu didn't even look at the test report, but continued: "It's best to be able to find out the use of illegal drugs, and it's normal not to be able to find out. Athletes go on the field, and in the end they still compete for their strength, and they still hope. Let us Japanese players defeat Zhang Guan!"
Takano Shin could hear that Kobayashi Keikazu's tone was full of a touch of sadness, as if he was helpless about the bleak future. At this moment, Takano Shin finally confirmed that coach Kobayashi Keikazu, who was full of confidence in front of others, was actually not optimistic about the Japanese team. s future.
Zhang Guan is only seventeen years old, and his short cannon skills are very poor. But what is certain is that in the future, as his age increases and his technical level improves, Zhang Guan will definitely run faster and faster, and he will become the future of the Chinese track and field team. , and where is the future of the Japanese team
The Japanese team also produced a number of excellent track and field sprinters in the 1990s, but no super-level athletes were found among Japan's young athletes under the age of 20. Susumu Takano can already predict that in the next four to five years, , Japan sprint will definitely have a talent gap.
This is not only true in Japan, but also in Asia as a whole. When the Jamaican flying star Powell continued to refresh human limits, the sprint events in Asian track and field were gradually declining. All the major track and field countries were in a state of failure, and the 100-meter level continued to decline. Decline. Fortunately, Liu Feiren is a fig leaf in the 110-meter hurdles. Otherwise, Asian short track and field events will eventually become dominated by naturalized African athletes.
Today's media area is not as noisy as usual. The reporters are all staring at the track, looking forward to the next game. The Filipino reporters, in particular, were extremely quiet, but reporters from other countries around them could clearly feel the sense of depression before the outbreak. These Filipino reporters were all holding back their energy!
Previously, the Philippine media ridiculed and smeared Zhang Guan, but Zhang Guan immediately responded with a time of 10 seconds. The media that originally ridiculed and smeared this all acted like ostriches and did not report that Zhang Guan ran for 10 seconds. However, athletes and reporters from other Asian countries all saw the joke here, and the Philippine media was greatly embarrassed by it. . Today, Filipino journalists are waiting and hoping that Zhang Guanhui will fail so that they can regain their face.
Ramos, who lost 5,000 Philippine pesos, glared fiercely at Yang Zhongyi, who was not far away, but found that Yang Zhongyi slowly took out his mobile phone. He had an incoming call.
As a reporter who often travels abroad, Yang Zhongyi's mobile phone has already activated the Global Communication function, and at this time, Yang Zhongyi's mobile phone displayed a domestic number.
Yang Zhongyi answered immediately, and a long-lost voice came from the other side of the phone: "Is it Senior Brother? I'm Xiao Liu!"
Yang Zhongyi recognized the voice as Xiao Liu, his junior student in college. At that time, Yang Zhongyi and Xiao Liu were both members of the student union. They often organized activities together and were very familiar with each other. After graduating from college, Xiao Liu worked for an emerging online media and was in frequent contact with Yang Zhongyi.
"Brother, I called your unit to find you. They said you came to the Philippines to report on the Asian Track and Field Championships. Are you on the field now?" Xiao Liu asked.
"Yes, I'm on the field. Call me internationally. There must be something urgent!" Yang Zhongyi said.
"That's for sure. No one can help me with this matter except you, senior brother. I want to ask you about an athlete. He should be competing in the Philippines now. His name is Zhang..."
"Wait a moment. Don't hang up yet. Wait for me for half a minute. The race is about to start." Yang Zhongyi interrupted Xiao Liu. He saw on the starting line that the starter had raised the starting gun.
…
"Onyourmarks... set..." the starter shouted.
Before the gunfire rang out, Yuan Xuanzhi rushed out. Habeibei, who was next to him, thought he had already started running, so he also rushed out, followed closely by Zhang Guan, who lacked competition experience. Even Chen Jian and Shen Bao also swayed slightly, but only the Japanese team The other two athletes, Shingo Sutsu and Hiroshi Tsuchie, did not move.
The referee's whistle sounded, indicating that someone was jumping the gun. Nobuharu Asahara immediately raised his hands, admitted his foul, and then slowly walked back to the starting line, preparing for the next start.
The coaches from various countries who were watching the game from a distance all saw some clues. Although the level of Asian track and field sprinting is not very good, and the level of coaches is average, the most basic tactical false start cannot be hidden from everyone's eyes.
"The Japanese actually used a tactical false start. It seemed to be aimed at the young Chinese player." A foreign coach said.
"Yes, although the Chinese big man ran very fast, he must have lacked competition experience. If I were the Japanese team, I would also choose to tactically jump ahead. And I feel that the naturalized players in Saudi Arabia have also been affected to some extent. "Another foreign coach said while looking at the Chinese and Japanese coaches. He saw that Kobayashi Keikazu was not at all happy about the tactical success, while Director Yu also had a solemn look on his face.
…
In the press area, Yang Zhongyi raised the phone to his ear again. It is likely that it will take some time for the game to restart, and Yang Zhongyi has enough time to talk to Xiao Liu.
"Xiao Liu, the game just started, but someone jumped the gun, so it will take some time to prepare." Yang Zhongyi paused, then asked: "What did you want to ask me about just now?"
"Brother, I want to ask you about a person named Zhang Guan. Have you heard of him?" Xiao Liu asked.
"Zhang Guan? Is it Zhang Guan from the men's 100-meter dash?" Yang Zhongyi asked.
When Xiao Liu heard that Yang Zhongyi knew Zhang Guan, he immediately replied happily: "Yes, that's Zhang Guan."
"Are you going to do an exclusive interview with him? I can help you ask, but I can't guarantee that it will work." Yang Zhongyi said. He felt that Zhang Guan's 10-second time must have caused a sensation in the country. This little boy Liu hoped to find himself a back door to interview Zhang Guan.
"Exclusive interview? What interview? It's not an exclusive interview!" Xiao Liu on the other end of the phone was confused.
"It's not an exclusive interview with Zhang Guan..." Yang Zhongyi also realized that he might have misunderstood, so he turned to ask: "What is that?"
Xiao Liu didn't waste any time and went straight to the topic: "Brother, I want to ask you something privately. Did Zhang Guan join the national team through the back door?"
"Going through the back door? Why?" Yang Zhongyi felt a little baffled.
"Of course you don't have enough strength to use the back door, senior brother, you know this kind of thing..." Xiao Liu said softly.
"Not strong enough? Zhang Guan not strong enough? Hahaha..." Yang Zhongyi laughed wildly as if he had heard a joke.
"Brother, don't laugh. Listen to me first. This is what happened..." Xiao Liu told Yang Zhongyi all about the situation in the country in the past two days. Starting from the media's discovery that Zhang Guan was only a national second-level athlete, Later, Section Chief Yang's clarification, and then everyone's more doubts, all were told to Yang Zhongyi.
Yang Zhongyi resisted interrupting Xiao Liu and let Xiao Liu finish everything. Then he said: "Xiao Liu, these unscrupulous media are afraid that the world will not be in chaos. Do you know how powerful this Zhang Guan is? , even Japanese athletes can't run as fast as him. In yesterday's semi-finals, he ran for 10 seconds! Do you think an athlete who can run 100 meters for 10 seconds needs to go through the back door? "
"10 seconds exactly? You mean 10 seconds exactly?" Xiao Liu couldn't believe his ears, and he subconsciously retorted: "Maybe the results are falsified..."
As soon as Xiao Liu finished speaking, he realized that he had said the wrong thing. The Asian Track and Field Championships is an international event after all. It is still possible to falsify domestic results, but when it comes to international events, coaches and reporters from all over Asia gather here. It is obvious who is running fast and who is running slow. How is it possible to falsify the results.
Xiao Liu immediately changed the topic: "Brother, being able to run for 10 seconds is an incredible achievement, but why haven't I seen any relevant reports in China?"
"Haven't you seen the newspaper yet? I sent the report to the Athletics Association last night, why hasn't it been released yet?" Yang Zhongyi thought for a while and suddenly said: "I know, yesterday was Saturday, and people from the Athletics Association may be Don’t go to work!”
"So that's it..." Xiao Liu thought to himself. The Athletics Association does not work on Saturdays, but the Publicity Department of the Sports Federation worked an extra day for this matter.
At this moment, the athletes on the field once again looked like they were getting ready to start.
Yang Zhongyi immediately said: "Xiao Liu, wait a minute, wait for me for thirty seconds, the game will start again!"
…
Masashi Erikuchi's eyes were fixed on the TV. At this time, the TV station's commentator also stopped talking, waiting for the sound of gunshots.
"Bang!" The crisp starting gun sounded, and Susu Shenwu was the first to rush out, while several other athletes, perhaps affected by the first shot, started slightly conservatively, especially Zhang Guan, who started off slightly conservatively. The action is the slowest one.
At this moment, Zhang Guan's lack of competition experience finally became apparent. People like Chen Jian and others would at most start more conservatively, but it was almost the same as usual, while Zhang Guan was obviously slower.
"Satsugo Shingo had a good start, he took the lead!" the TV commentator said immediately.
At the same time, the starting reaction times of the eight people also appeared on the screen. In the end, Shingo's starting reaction time of 0.138 seconds was perfect; later, Kanyu Tsuchie, Chen Jian and Mubarak all fell within 0.15 seconds to 0.16 seconds. The time is relatively good; Shen Bao's starting reaction time is 0.161 seconds, and Asahara Nobuharu's is 0.162 seconds. Their starting reaction time is barely qualified; Habeibei's starting reaction time of 0.173 seconds is already considered slow; while Zhang Guan's starting reaction time is 0.191 seconds, which is the slowest. seconds, which is 0.053 seconds slower than the fastest Sutsugo Shingo.
In front of the TV, Masashi Eriguchi clenched his fists excitedly. He was about to cheer for Shingo Suetsugu loudly, but he shrank back when his voice reached his throat.
Zhang Guan has already caught up with Susu Shenwu.
