After the women's individual archery competition, the Chinese delegation's total number of gold medals in this Olympics has equaled that of the Soviet Union. Chinese people everywhere have set off firecrackers in celebration in advance, because this result has exceeded everyone's best expectations.

The Western media were very conflicted at this time. Of course they were happy to see the Soviets' current embarrassment, but the problem was that the people who were embarrassing the Soviets were Chinese, so it was difficult to report it extensively.

So before the start of the 100-meter relay race, both the Free Family and the Social Family kept silent about China's ranking. Especially when introducing Zhao Haidong, both families were vague, deliberately not mentioning that he had just received a

Returning the gold medal to its original owner is, after all, a very sensitive topic for both families.

Of course, Chinese TV stations are just the opposite. They want to repeat it three times every time they broadcast it.

The first topic when Song Shixiong began to explain the game was to once again broadcast to the whole country the news that Ben Johnson's gold medal was canceled and Zhao Haidong got his own gold medal and world record.

This is indeed worthy of repeated broadcasts. The gold medal in the 100-meter flying competition in the Olympic Games is definitely less influential than the World Cup champion.

But if you win the championship and break the record, even if the impact is still not as good as the World Cup championship, it is likely to be more significant for the breakthrough of the human body's physical limits.

The most important thing is that it is the Chinese who have accomplished all this. So considering the significance of this championship and the impact of this record, it is understandable that the sensation caused in the end is not inferior to winning the World Cup in China.

Not to mention other things, this gold medal completely broke the "ethnology" that has been shaped by the West for hundreds of years, and its significance is no less than that of China's football winning the World Cup.

Now it is said that Zhao Haidong is the third person in the sports world after Wu Jie and Shen Lang. At this time, I am afraid there will not be too many doubts. His gold medal + world record has such weight.

Wu Jie's achievements in this Olympic Games sometimes feel like a dream when he thinks about them, but for the vast number of Chinese people, they have a very reasonable explanation.

The achievements of Chinese football in this dimension are best understood. After all, they are at the peak of their debut and have never experienced a series of disasters in the original dimension.

The poor performance of the New Flower Planters before its establishment can be entirely attributed to the war and instability at that time. The lack of results in the first thirty years after the establishment of the New Flower Planters can be attributed to the blockade by the West.

I am so focused on developing industry that I have no intention of thinking about football. Besides, you won’t let me play with you!

In this way, the current achievements of Chinese football can easily be explained. As long as they are no longer blocked and the domestic environment can be slightly more stable, even if the entire country is still very poor, they can win the World Cup. After all, this has been China's history for thousands of years.

It’s a gadget invented a long time ago!

What, you said the British disapproved of it?

But the problem is that except for the disapproval of some British people, the whole world has accepted the fact that China is the birthplace of football, and even the quotation marks of "modern football" have slowly disappeared.

The awesomeness of basketball can also be easily explained. Since Chinese people can play well with their feet, it is naturally easier to play with their hands. This is indeed the case!

Therefore, basketball is the same as football. As long as they are not blocked and the environment is slightly more stable, it will be easy for them to return to their original position.

This understanding is also true for swimming and track and field. It turns out that the lack of results was due to the war that broke out before the establishment of the new flower garden. At that time, the people had no food, clothing and warmth. How could they have the conditions to practice sports, so the children were allowed to

Japan slanders Japan as the sick man of East Asia. Now this sign can be written directly in Japanese and returned to them.

This is the current understanding of the Chinese people about the fact that the country has not made much achievements in the field of sports in the past hundred years. As for those people who frequently talked about "the race is not good", they have long since turned into the "Chinese race superiority theory"

of fans.

After Song Shixiong mentioned Zhao Haidong's name again, he finally gave everyone some popular science before the start of the competition. The main reason is that the results of the 100-meter relay cannot be counted in the individual events of the same distance.

In this era, relay races in swimming events were not counted as personal official records, but the results of the first swim could be included in the personal best results. In a few years, you could even apply to the conference before the game. At that time, the first

The results set by baseball players can be regarded as valid world records.

But such rules can never be introduced in track and field, not even for the first runner, because the 100-meter relay race has a curve area, but the individual race is a straight sprint. This difference alone is big enough.

In addition, the speed of the relay race will definitely be affected when handing over the baton, and the results of the first leg will definitely be worse than those of the individual race. Since the other three legs can start early within 10 meters in front of the baton, their results will be better than those of the individual race.

Some.

But even if we know that relay races and individual races in track and field competitions cannot be equated, the first leg of the Chinese team this time will definitely be converted by the media and the audience, because the first leg of the Chinese team is Gong Xiaoya!

There are so many points to discuss about Gong Xiaoya. For example, he once said that apart from being unable to outrun Zhao Haidong, he was not afraid at all even when facing Ben Johnson and Carl Lewis. Another example is that he said that he could easily run under ten seconds.

Within two years, if you practice hard, you can break 9.80 seconds within two years, and at least 9.75 seconds within four years.

How much controversy will this kind of brazen talk cause, and how many people will want to slap him in the face?

Before today's competition, he publicly stated: He will never participate in the individual competition of the 100-meter event. He came to participate in the relay race this time just for fun. In the future, when the results of the younger generation in China improve, he will no longer waste his energy participating in other races.

As for other track events other than the 110-meter hurdles, of course, if there is a relay race for the 110-meter hurdles in the future, that will be a different matter.

This means that if everyone wants to slap him in the face, it seems that this is the only chance.

At this time, Gong Xiaoya, who was responsible for running the first leg, had already stood at the starting point. He and Zhao Haidong appeared one after the other.

This bat was not as expected. If the Chinese team wants to win the championship, he must really put in some effort in his first bat.

Of course Gong Xiaoya was prepared to work hard. He also knew that the whole world was counting his own results, mainly to see if he was really capable of running under 10 seconds?

"Dear viewers, the preliminaries of the men's 100-meter relay are about to begin. The first leg of the Chinese team is the familiar but unexpected Gong Xiaoya. He has set new world records in the 110-meter hurdles, long jump, and triple jump.

, but we don’t know yet how he will perform in the men’s 100-meter event, which is the biggest highlight of the competition!”

As soon as Song Shixiong introduced Gong Xiaoya, who was playing for tickets, the signal gun at the competition site went off. Gong Xiaoya, the slimmest among the eight contestants, was the first to rush out from the starting block as expected.

"The race has begun. Gong Xiaoya's starting speed is as fast as the wind. His acceleration ability and cornering skills are also amazing. I believe the whole world has never thought that he can run so fast on the 100-meter track... Okay, now.

It’s time to hand over the baton. Gong Xiaoya’s speed control is very good. This is an almost perfect handover..."

When Song Shixiong saw that Gong Xiaoya ran as fast as lightning in the first 60 meters, even significantly faster than the British star Christie who ran within 10 seconds in the individual competition, Song Shixiong was no less surprised than the stunned Western media.

!

But even he didn't know that Gong Xiaoya was invincible in the first 60 meters. If it were really an individual competition in the 100-meter event, then Gong Xiaoya would have lost his stamina in the last 40 meters, especially the last 20 meters, and his final result would definitely not be as good as in the individual competition.

Christie finished third.

However, the relay race is different from the individual race. First of all, cornering skills have a great influence on the relay race, and Gong Xiaoya happens to be very good at running in corners.

In addition, the biggest difference is the handover of the baton. Each player must control his or her speed after entering the last thirty meters. Otherwise, sprinting at full speed like in the individual competition will easily cause mistakes with the teammate who takes over the baton.

But in this way, Gong Xiaoya's shortcoming of poor sprinting ability in the last thirty meters was avoided, so in everyone's eyes, he entered the handover zone faster than Christie, who ran 9.98 seconds in the individual competition, and thus everyone

People can't help but wonder whether this change of direction shows that Gong Xiaoya is indeed capable of achieving results in the 100-meter race? He just has to dominate the 110-meter hurdles because of the monster Zhao Haidong?

At this time, Zhou Weihua, the second runner of the Chinese team, has completed the handover. This 20-year-old youngster from Guangdong is also from the football team. At 1.73 meters, he is not short on the football field, but he is indeed a bit short when he transfers to the track and field team.

.

However, with his strong explosive power and fast gait, Zhou Weihua is also an excellent athlete in the first 60 meters, and his style is very similar to Su Bingtian in his original position.

Zhou Weihua's current best time is 10.33 seconds. Unfortunately, his performance in the previous individual competition was average. He only ran 10.40 seconds in the preliminaries and failed to advance.

In this preliminaries, Zhou Weihua performed well. He firmly maintained the advantage created by Gong Xiaoya in the first leg. Even after he and Li Tao completed the handover of the second and third poles, the Chinese team took an even bigger lead.

Li Tao and Zhao Haidong are officially the same age, but of course their real age is two years older. He once ran a personal best of 10.25 seconds at the National Games.

He also performed well in this Olympics. He ran 10.30 seconds in the preliminaries and 10.28 seconds in the semi-finals respectively. However, this level was placed in this darkest Olympics. In the end, he barely made it to the semi-finals and could not improve.

One step further.

However, when he came to the relay race, his level was at least above the average among all the athletes, so it was no problem to hold on to his advantage in the first two legs.

However, this algorithm is based on the level of the individual competition. In fact, there will be many unpredictable accidents in the relay race, or it is more appropriate to say mistakes. Accidents are prone to occur especially when handing over the baton, so even the American team often

Because of my mistakes, I couldn't even finish in the top three in the relay race.

The Chinese team has obvious advantages in this aspect, especially the handover of the second, third and third and fourth sticks has always been very strong.

In this game, the cooperation between Zhou Weihua and Li Tao was perfect. However, the British team, which was the strongest on paper in the same group, had some problems. As a result, after Li Tao completed the handover of the third leg, the Chinese team's lead was almost one second faster.

.

Then there is no suspense. Zhao Haidong, who made the last stroke, did not even need to go all out. The Chinese team ran an almost record-breaking 37.75 seconds.

In the end, the second-placed Cuban team only ran a time of 38.35 seconds, while the British team, which was the strongest on paper, only ran a time of 38.48 seconds.

"This... the world record is only 37.62 seconds. The Chinese team almost broke the record in the preliminaries. They won't win another gold medal in the track event, right?"

"Gong Xiaoya's first stroke was so amazing, and there was no need to think too much about handing over the baton. His personal performance was obviously better than Christie's. Can he really run under 10 seconds in the 100-meter event?"

Within?”

"Didn't you say that the Chinese are not good at sprinting? Will they be like Ben Johnson..."

"Hush, don't mention Johnson, just talk about the Chinese!"
