Group A has one less person than Group B, so the game will definitely progress faster. At this time, the snatch competition in Group A has already ended.
The top player in Group A is named Fang Dashan. He is the top weightlifter in the country. At this time, Fang Dashan was pouting, with a smug smile on his face. His snatch score was also 141 kilograms. He felt that he was already guaranteed to win.
“The snatch has always been my weakness, but I didn’t expect that I was in very good shape today and was able to achieve a good result of 141 kilograms in the snatch event. The clean and jerk that follows is my strong point. It seems that this championship belongs to me! "Fang Dashan feels that the next clean and jerk is just a formality. With his condition today, he will win the championship without any doubt.
At this time, applause suddenly sounded from the Group B stadium on the other side.
"There needs to be one more person in Group B. The snatch competition is not over yet." Fang Dashan leaned back on his chair and didn't care about the competition in Group B. In his opinion, Group B was a bunch of weaklings, just here. "Participation is important".
However, Fang Dashan's coach hurried over and said, "Da Shan, someone in Group B also lifted 141 kilograms."
"What!" Fang Dashan suddenly sat upright and asked with a vigilant look: "How come there are such high-level players in Group B? Who is it? Is there a new player suddenly appearing!"
There are many talented weightlifters in the country, and a dark horse might appear at some point. This is what Fang Dashan is most worried about.
"It's not considered a newcomer either. The one who lifted 141 kilograms is Jiang Aiguo." The coach said.
"Jiang Aiguo, I've heard this name before, and then I remembered that he was a very old athlete, probably in his thirties. In my impression, he seemed to be in the 69kg category. How did he end up in the 62kg category? Could it be said that he dropped a weight class? How is this possible? An athlete in his thirties dropped a weight class and can still be so strong!"
"Yeah, when I first saw him, I was also wondering why he appeared in the 62kg category. I didn't expect that he could really drop a weight class. You have to be careful, Jiang Aiguo is experienced after all. An old athlete with mature skills, the clean and jerk is not weak!" The coach looked at the information book in his hand, and then said: "Fortunately, at the pre-match weighing, you are 0.04 kilograms lighter than him, which gives us an advantage!"
…
The clean and jerk is easier to generate force than the snatch, so the weight of the clean and jerk is much higher than that of the snatch. At the same time, the clean and jerk requires more skills. Domestic weightlifters generally have better skills, so the clean and jerk level is often higher than the snatch level.
In Group B, the first player to take the stage directly asked for a weight of 145 kilograms, which was a full 30 kilograms more than the previous snatch.
Then the weight of the barbell gradually increased until it reached 160 kilograms, and Jiang Aiguo made his first appearance.
The bell rang, and Jiang Aiguo succeeded in the lift. He threw the barbell on the ground. The 160-pound barbell bounced slightly and made a "pop" sound, which made everyone close to the arena feel that the ground was shaking. .
At the same time, thunderous applause sounded at the Group A competition venue.
Fang Dashan raised his hands high and began to celebrate the victory. The pace of the competition in Group A was a little slow. Fang Dashan had just completed his second trial lift. He lifted 169 kilograms in the second trial.
Group B has also received the news.
Li Dai came to Jiang Aiguo and said: "Brother Jiang, Fang Dashan in Group A has a clean and jerk score of 169 kilograms. Before, your snatch scores were the same. Now he is 9 kilograms ahead of you, but his weighing weight is higher than yours." It’s light. I think you can try 170 kilograms next. You have lifted this number before in training.”
"Okay, let's increase it to 170 kilograms and suppress Fang Dashan!" Jiang Aiguo said decisively.
The barbell in Group B was increased to 163kg, and the other two remaining contestants also fell to this weight. Only Jiang Aiguo was left in Group B and had not yet completed the competition. Then the staff went directly to the stage and increased the barbell to 170kg. Kilogram.
"Look, the barbell has been increased to 170 kilograms. Jiang Aiguo has to lift 170 kilograms!"
"Fang Dashan in Group A only lifted 169 kilograms. Jiang Aiguo is going to overwhelm Fang Dashan!"
"I just saw that Fang Dashan and Jiang Aiguo's snatch scores were both 141 kilograms. If Jiang Aiguo could lift this 170 kilograms, wouldn't he be better than Fang Dashan! The players in Group B defeated the players in Group A and counterattacked ah!"
"Don't rush to conclusions yet. Jiang Aiguo's first attempt was to lift 160 kilograms. This is an increase of 10 kilograms. He may not be able to lift it at all. I think Jiang Aiguo is just trying his luck."
The audience in the audience said anything. On the stage, Jiang Aiguo took a handful of anti-slip powder and got ready.
When the starting bell rang, Jiang Aiguo held his breath and lifted the barbell up his body. When the barbell reached his chest, Jiang Aiguo squatted with both feet. At the same time, he continued to exert force with his arms and raised the barbell above his chest, followed by a lever. , stood up.
After doing all this, he adjusted his breathing, then spread his legs forward and backward, and with the help of pre-squats and push-ups, he raised the barbell above his head until his arms were straight. Then Jiang Aiguo adjusted his pace, stood on the same horizontal line with both feet, and stabilized his posture.
"Beep..." The bell rang, Jiang Aiguo put down the barbell, three white lights lit up, and Jiang Aiguo took a breath.
"Successful, 170 kilograms, Jiang Aiguo succeeded! He suppressed Fang Dashan by 1 kilogram, Jiang Aiguo is going to win the championship!"
The audience's applause and shouts sounded at this time, surrounding the entire venue, deafening.
People sympathize with the weak, and the diaosi counterattack scene is an enduring mainstream in literary works. In the eyes of the audience, if the athletes of Group B can defeat the athletes of Group A and win the championship, it will definitely be a wonderful thing. Something worthy of their applause.
What's more, Jiang Aiguo is still playing at home. The audience in this stand are basically folks from Qingcheng City. As a player from this province, Jiang Aiguo will definitely receive strong support from his hometown audience. People hope that Jiang Aiguo can win the final victory.
…
In Group A, as the last contestant failed to lift 170 kilograms, Fang Dashan has locked in the first place in Group A.
"Now that I have won the championship, I might as well give up on my last attempt to avoid injury." Fang Dashan was thinking about it when the sudden applause and shouts startled him.
"What's going on? Such a loud noise. It's from Group B." Fang Dashan looked up and found that even the audience in the stands of Group A were rushing towards Group B.
The coach hurried over with a serious look on his face. He said, "The situation is not good. Jiang Aiguo from Group B grabbed 170 kilograms, and now he is one kilogram ahead of you!"
"170 kilograms? I was overtaken by a player from Group B?" Fang Dashan's eyes widened in surprise, as if he couldn't believe it. He thought he had won the championship, but he never expected that a Group B player would of lower level players will outperform themselves.
Just listen to the coach continue to say; "Jiang Aiguo's pre-game weigh-in is heavier than you, so as long as you lift 170 kilograms, you can beat him. But it was his second trial just now, which means you all still have Last chance. If we quote 170 kilograms, it’s not safe!”
Fang Dashan frowned and thought for a while: "What I'm saying is, if he can lift 171 kilograms, wouldn't I lose?"
The coach nodded: "Then let's wait and see if we can think of a way to delay the time and let Jiang Aiguo report the weight first, and we will follow his weight report, so that the initiative is in our hands. .”
