680 Championship
Liu Wei scored more than 90 points on Billings' Tour, finishing second among 42 riders and second to last in the order of appearance, with last year's championship money winner Johnson coming out in the last place.
The organizing committee determined such a sequence of competitions presumably to whet the appetite of the audience.
Cattle are randomly matched by a system to draw lots.
While waiting for the results in the event office, Liu Wei asked Johnson curiously, "Which bull do you want to subdue the most?"
Johnson smiled slightly, "Bushwacher, of course!"
Liu Wei nodded.
Listening to the tone, it seems that it is inevitable!
The last thing the other players wanted to draw was "Bushwacker and Bones", two of the world's top two bulls.
They thought they couldn't get a high score on these two bulls, the risk was too great, and if they couldn't be subdued, the individual score would be zero, and for professional riders, the key to victory was the individual score.
Draw a bull that is easier to control, and in the process of subduing, it is also possible to make up for or even exceed the score of the bull's performance through the performance of individual limbs.
The big screen in the office shows the final order of appearance, as well as the match between the players and the participating bulls.
Part of the riders breathed a sigh of relief.
A part of the riders sighed.
It was only after they released their emotions that they shifted their attention to Liu Wei and Johnson.
The two matched the match cow "Bushwacker!"
One is last year's Championship trophy winner, and the other is this year's dark horse, and the two will ride the same super bull, and the world's No. 1 bull that has not yet been subdued.
The competition is exciting!
Liu Wei and Johnson turned their heads to look at each other at the same time.
Johnson smiled: "Man, I'm very lucky!"
His smile betrays a great deal of confidence that the match is within his predictions, or that he is sure that he will subdue "Bushwacker" to win the Los Angeles Champions League for a few years.
In contrast, although Liu Wei was very calm in his expression, he was MMP in his heart.
This Nima luck can buy lottery tickets!
I think of the bull sleeping in the bullpen in my mind, and I didn't show any emotions before the game, so it's hard to handle!
Liu Wei also smiled at Johnson: "Maybe this is fate!"
"Okay, man!"
"Good luck with you!"
Liu Wei and Johnson stood up and high-fived.
Ronaldi walked to Liu Wei's side, looked at Liu Wei with a smile for a moment, shook his head and stretched out his hand and said, "Liu, shark is right, I don't have the life of a champion!"
"Come on!" Liu Wei encouraged.
Ronaldi's expression revealed a kind of helplessness, a helplessness that only a veteran can experience.
He really doesn't seem to have a chance to win the championship.
At least after seeing the results, the focus of this match has changed.
The showdown between the rising star and the defending champion is what will be in the spotlight for today's Los Angeles champions.
"Liu, come on!"
Ronaldi walked into the lounge with a smile.
......
Scene.
A sea of people.
Mountains and tsunamis.
The weather this afternoon was also uncomfortable, neither hot nor cold, and there was no dazzling sunlight to affect the spectators.
The opening show has already begun on the performance stage at the edge of the arena.
Today's guest is the famous American female singer, Jennifer Lopez.
After two dynamic dance songs, the atmosphere of the arena was pushed to a climax.
After the host took the stage to introduce the competition process, the commentator began to analyze the 42 riders who participated in the competition.
"Today's guest speaker is a PBR celebrity that everyone knows and loves very well, David Lopez, who won two championship trophies in PBR '13 and '14.
David, what is your unique take on this year's championship?"
David: "Since retiring, I've been following PBR, which is my favorite competitive game and the one that changed the fate of my life.
The highlight of this year's Los Angeles Championship was the performance of Liu Wei, China's first rider!
Commentary: "I agree with you, David, but before that, the Los Angeles Championship was seen as a fateful matchup between veterans Ronaldi and Johnson!"
David shook his head: "Ronaldi is a rider I respect very much, he has great skills, his professionalism is worth learning from every one of our riders, and I believe that his story will also affect every spectator and competitor who loves bull riding."
I salute him.
But objectively speaking, Ronaldi's chances of winning this race are slim, and the 42 riders who can make it to the final have a strong strength, and their goal is definitely to attack the $3 million.
I felt the pressure of the final, to be honest, it was nervous.
As I walked through the lounge, Johnson was relatively relaxed and he was going to play his best game to hit $3 million!"
Commentary: "David just mentioned Liu Wei and Johnson at the same time, and I got the backstage information that the two are going to subdue the same bull, the world's No. 1 super bull, Bushwacker. ”
"Really?" David was surprised, "In this way, this game will be good-looking, the uncertainty factor is too great, if Liu Wei and Johnson do not succeed in subduing Bushwacker, the other players will have a better chance of winning the championship, maybe there will be an upset this year!"
The narrator agrees with David's professional analysis, "David, I know you've tried to subdue this super bull, how do you feel about it?"
David shook his head and said: "This cow has a lot of strength, and its explosive power makes people feel terrifying, if I return to the peak of my career, there may be a chance to subdue him!"
Narrator: "Do you think Johnson and Liu Wei will be able to successfully subdue it?"
David shook his head, "It's hard to say, the competitive sports arena is changing rapidly, let's look at the state of the two players!"
"OK, just now David did a full analysis of the championship and now we see that the first rider is ready, and this is a young rider from Brazil......"
"Game on!"
"The bull he rode was the Black Pearl, the eighth in the world, and we could see that it was jumping high on its hind legs and its whole body was starting to swing irregularly!"
"Beautiful!"
David: "Overall, the performance is still very good, successfully subdued the Bulls, the players have strong body control, they did not lose their center of gravity in the process of subduing the Bulls, and the referee should give a high individual score!"
"The final score has been given on the big screen, congratulations to the first rider for achieving a good score of 90.61, which is a lot of pressure for the riders behind it!"
David laughed: "He should have kept a hand on the tour, a nice, very thoughtful rider." ”
......
The game went to the halfway point.
Hip-hop singer Simon took the stage to help sing.
The atmosphere in the stadium of 100,000 people was still restless.
We all know that the second half is the highlight of the championship game.
Among the 24 riders who have competed so far, the highest score is an Argentine veteran with 92.01 points.
