Chapter 47 Extra Match

Chen Qiang did not leave the stadium.

Anyway, there is no need to start work all day, so Chen Qiang simply stays, finds a corner to stay quietly, watch other events, and also understands the level of athletes in this era.

The next event is a man's 200-meter sprint, and many people have already started preparing.

However, the track and field referee came over.

"Chen Qiang? Where is Chen Qiang!" the track and field referee shouted to the crowd.

Hearing the track and field coach calling him, Chen Qiang immediately ran over through the crowd.

"Referee, are you asking me for something?" Chen Qiang asked.

"Go and prepare, you still have a game." The referee said, looking at Chen Qiang with a sympathetic look.

The surprise flashed across Chen Qiang's face. The rules were already very clear. He ranked first in the total score and qualified for the National Games, but he did not say that there were any extras.

Chen Qiang felt something was strange, but he did not ask the referee "Why do you have to play extra", but asked, "Is there something unexpected happening?"

"Yes." The referee nodded: "Don't think so much, just go and run well in the game later."

After saying that, the referee sighed and turned around and left.

Chen Qiang fell into deep thought and inexplicably wanted another extra game. He felt that he might have been put on.

...

Cheng Jinguan was a little anxious in the athlete waiting area. He had been waiting for a long time, but the 200-meter race had not started yet.

"The 100 meters have ended for so long, why hasn't the 200 meters started yet?" Cheng Jinguan asked the people around him.

Li Yongping walked over and said, "I guess I will have to wait for a while for the 200-meter race. I just saw Cui Linhai coming back and said he was going to find the referee."

"Cui Linhai? Is it the player who ran for 12 seconds?" Cheng Jinguan was studying in Suzhou and didn't know much about the athletes in Shanghai, so he continued to ask: "Why did he go to the referee?"

"What else can I do? The first place was stolen by someone else, I'm not convinced." Li Yongping said with a smile.

"That's because he is not as good as others and cannot beat others. What's the use of finding a referee?" Cheng Jinguan asked with confusion.

Li Yongping also remembered that although Cheng Jinguan is from Shanghai, he does not live in Shanghai and does not know Cui Linhai's family background at all. So he lowered his voice and explained: "Cui Linhai's father is Director Cui of the Finance Bureau."

Cheng Jinguan nodded suddenly. He was also born in a wealthy family, so he naturally understood this kind of thing about fighting for his father.

Sure enough, not long after, Cui Linhai returned and stood on the track.

"Have you heard that? There is another extra race for the 100-meter sprint. Cui Linhai and the coachman who ran 11.7 seconds will compete with another match. Whoever wins will be able to participate in the National Games!"

"I remember the rules didn't say that the first and second places will have to play more, right?"

"The rules are not mentioned, but don't forget who Cui Linhai's father is! I heard that Cui Linhai went to find the referee just now. This must be Cui Linhai lost to the coachman, and then he was not convinced, so he had to compete again and find face."

"Why do I think that Cui Linhai is a shameful thing to do this. If he loses, he will lose. He will win back next time. He will rely on his father's request to have another extra game. What a hero! Besides, there are 200 meters and 400 meters selections, and there are two quotas for the National Games. He is not without a chance."

Everyone was talking in a low voice, and at this time, Chen Qiang also walked onto the track.

When Cui Linhai saw Chen Qiang, he immediately gave a provocative expression.

Chen Qiang did not respond at all. He just recognized that his opponent was the player who had run for 12 seconds before.

"What's this person's name? I just remember that his surname is Cui, and he was originally assigned to the fifth group with me. This extra game will not be related to the person named Cui, right? Is it because he is not convinced and wants to compete with me again? If the referee can make a sideline and have another extra game, this player named Cui must be a person with background, and most of them are second-generation officials." Chen Qiang thought to himself.

Chen Qiang's guess was still very accurate. Although he didn't know Cui Linhai's family background and did not know that Cui Linhai went to the referee to put pressure on him, he could still guess that this extra game was caused by Cui Linhai.

"No matter what the truth is, you will beat you later!" Chen Qiang thought of this and began to prepare for the start.

...

"Prepare!" the commander shouted.

Chen Qiang possessed himself and squatted down, pressed the ground with both hands steadily, controlled the center of gravity of his body, and made a squat-starting position.

Cui Linhai glanced at Chen Qiang from the corner of his eyes and said to himself: "This coachman is still learning the starting position! However, the squat-style starting of our athletes is not just squatting. It requires countless practices to master the key points. It is useless for you to learn and sell it now."

At this moment, gunfire sounded.

Chen Qiang reacted instantly and rushed out.

Cui Linhai also felt the first time that Chen Qiang's reaction speed was faster than himself.

Cui Linhai is a trained athlete, and his starting reaction time is definitely much faster than that of ordinary people, but compared with Chen Qiang, it is not enough to see. The training Chen Qiang received is one hundred years ahead of this era, which is an irreparable gap.

However, Cui Linhai is not worried about this. Sprinting is not about who starts faster, and it is even more 100 meters wide for him to perform his speed!

However, Cui Linhai was surprised to find that Chen Qiang did not erect his chest after starting, but continued to sprint forward with his head down. This was the first time Cui Linhai had seen running like this.

Cui Linhai had already left during Chen Qiang's competition before, so he had never seen Chen Qiang's running style. If Cui Linhai had watched Chen Qiang's competition just now, he wouldn't have been so surprised.

This surprise lasted only for a second, and Cui Linhai realized that Chen Qiang's acceleration was faster than him, and at this time Chen Qiang was already one distance ahead of him.

"What's the situation? This coachman actually ran to me!" Cui Linhai was startled by the scene in front of him. He had just realized that this coachman who was like an ant in his eyes actually needed him to exert all his strength!

...

"Just just started, Cui Linhai was behind!" Someone in the crowd around him shouted in surprise.

No one could have expected that this game would start like this. Even if Li Yongping and Cheng Jinguan knew that Chen Qiang's real speed would be very fast, but they never thought that Cui Linhai would fall behind one position just after the start.

In the previous selection competition, Chen Qiang ran alone. At that time, there was no comparison between his opponent and Chen Qiang, so people couldn't see how fast Chen Qiang started, but now with Cui Linhai as a comparison, everyone realized that Chen Qiang's start was so fast.

"This starts very fast. If I had such a start, I might be able to defeat Cui Linhai." Li Yongping thought to himself.

At this moment, a "Come on" sound suddenly sounded in Li Yongping's ears, but Li Yongping didn't know whether this cheering sound was given to Cui Linhai or the coachman.

"come on!"

"come on!"

Someone shouted again, which even caused Li Yongping to have an impulse, whether to shout "Come on" at the track.

Suddenly, Li Yongping realized that these cheers were given to the coachman.

If they were cheering for Cui Linhai, they would definitely call out his name, such as "Cui Linhai Come on," or "Cui Linhai". After all, no one here doesn't know Cui Linhai.

But these people only shouted "Come on" and did not call Cui Linhai's name. Obviously, this is not cheering for Cui Linhai, and they don't know what the coachman's name is, so just shouted "Come on"!

"It seems that the second generation of officials is indeed annoying to most people!" Li Yongping sighed softly in his heart.

...

On the track, Cui Linhai was no longer reserved and he showed all his strength.

He kept accelerating, making himself faster with every step, and he wanted to surpass that ant-like coachman!

However, every time he was faster, the coachman would be faster. The two were always one in front and one behind. No matter how Cui Linhai tried his best, the gap between them did not decrease at all.

"What's going on? I've obviously tried my best, why can't I catch up with him? Why is this?" Cui Linhai couldn't even believe that this was reality.

In Cui Linhai's eyes, the other party is just a coachman and a bottom-level existence. As long as he gets on the track, he can crush his opponent at will.

But reality gave Cui Linhai a hard slap, and this slap made Cui Linhai much more awake.

"Will I lose to this coachman?" Cui Linhai felt the urgency for the first time.

"I can run for 12 seconds, how could I lose!" When this thought emerged from Cui Linhai's mind, another number flashed in his mind.

11 seconds 7!

Cui Linhai suddenly remembered that the coachman had just run 11 seconds 7, and this result was faster than his 12 seconds!

"Is that 11.7 seconds time true?"
