Chapter 141: The Expectations of the Media and the Audience
Under the attention of countless domestic and foreign media, sports fans, track and field professionals, and Omani media, at 16 o'clock in the afternoon of October 30, 2007, the men's 400m final of the 6th National Urban Games of China will be held in Wuhan Sports Center. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The attendance rate of the track and field field of the Wuhan Sports Center was also unexpectedly full, and there was not a single seat left. All of them are Wu Khan citizens who came to see the 400-meter final of the world flyer Zhang Huasong, as well as fans of Zhang Huasong who came from all over the country and even from all over the world.
CCTV Sports Channel also broadcast the men's 400m final of the Wuhan City Games in which the world's No. 1 flyer Zhang Huasong participated.
At 15:40, when the athletes were about to appear, the live broadcast camera of CCTV Sports Channel also cut into the scene of the City Games.
The CCTV host introduced to the national audience on TV: "Audience friends, the men's 400m final of the Wuhan City Games that everyone is concerned about will start in 20 minutes. Zhang Huasong, a Chinese sprinter and men's 100m world record holder, is about to participate in this final, and I think that's why many viewers are sitting in front of the TV to watch this final today. ”
Hearing the host's words, many viewers in front of the TV showed knowing smiles.
Indeed, at this point in time, many people are at work! These fans and sports fans of Zhang Huasong are either on vacation, or asking for leave, or secretly opening the live broadcast of CCTV sports channel in the office, all to watch Zhang Huasong's 400-meter final.
Zhang Huasong is not only the box office guarantee of the City Games, but also the ratings guarantee of live TV.
As the camera rotated, the audience also saw the full stands at the game site, and the attendance rate of the general football match was not as good as the 400-meter final of the City Games.
Sure enough, the host introduced on the TV: "The audience has seen it, the stands of the track and field field of the Wuhan Sports Center have been filled with fans of Wuhan citizens and Zhang Huasong." It is reported that the tickets for this game are the only one in all competitions in recent days that have been sold out, which shows the box office appeal of the world flyer Zhang Huasong. ”
Then, after the athletes entered the track and field field of Wuhan Sports Center, the CCTV host suddenly perked up and began to introduce them one by one.
"The first to appear was Chen Mingyu from Zhanqi City, and his results and semi-final results ranked fourth among all athletes, and his strength is not bad!"
"The second one to come out is ......"
As the finalists appeared one by one, after the seventh athlete was introduced, the on-site commentator shouted: "Next, let us welcome the world flyer Zhang Huasong with the warmest applause!"
Then, with warm applause at the scene, Zhang Huasong trotted out of the athletes' tunnel, looked around and waved to all the spectators, causing everyone to cheer.
The live TV host of CCTV Sports Channel also introduced to the audience in front of the TV after Zhang Huasong's appearance: "The last one to appear is the long-awaited world flyer Zhang Huasong." Listen, Zhang Huasong's appearance caused applause and cheers from the audience. ”
Zhang Huasong won the men's 100-meter championship in June this year through an intramural sports meeting of Yuzhou Technology and Business University, and only then did he get the opportunity to participate in the National University Games held in Yangcheng, Nanyue Province in July, and has soared since then. ”
Since the Yangcheng Universiade broke the event record and won the championship, Zhang Huasong has won the World Universiade championship, the board track and field world championships, the IAAF 2007 year-end finals champion, the IAAF Golden League Shanghai station champion, and twice broke the men's 100-meter world record, and is currently the men's 100-meter world record holder. ”
Zhang Huasong is the first yellow man to run into the 10-second mark, and broke the men's 100-meter world record monopolized by blacks, becoming the world's No. 1 flyer in the 100-meter today. ”
This Wuhan City Games is Zhang Huasong's first official competition in the 400 meters, and he ran 44.92 seconds, 44.85 seconds and 44.76 seconds in the first round of preliminaries, second round preliminaries and semifinals respectively. Some ordinary viewers may not have any idea about these results, so I will introduce them to you before the competition has started. ”
Subsequently, when Zhang Huasong and other athletes were warming up before the game, the CCTV host introduced the previous 400-meter national record, this year's Asian 400-meter best result, and the Asian record of 44.56 seconds set by Omani star Malaki, which has been in the dust for 19 years.
There are also 9 Olympic gold medals, 200m and 400m world records, and the stars and stripes national sprint superstar Michael Johnson has not done, and the Blue Star has not yet broken the 100m 10 seconds, 200m 20 seconds, 400m 44 seconds mark at the same time, and also introduced it to the audience.
Finally, the host said that Michael Johnson has retired, and Zhang Huasong is currently looking to be the most likely to create a human sprinting miracle, becoming the first athlete in the history of the Blue Star to break through the three major sprinting barriers at the same time.
These introductions filled the audience in front of the TV or computer with interest.
Although everyone knows that Zhang Huasong's current time is unlikely to break 44 seconds, many people are expecting Zhang Huasong to break the 19-year-old Asian record of 44.56 seconds.
Everyone thinks that according to the soaring trajectory of Zhang Huasong's past performances, it is entirely possible for Zhang Huasong to break this Asian record in the final.
However, everyone doesn't know that Zhang Huasong, who is warming up at the scene, has an all-around system that can upgrade his 400-meter skills from 44.6 seconds to 44.2 seconds.
However, he did not intend to break the 19-year-old Asian record, as expected by the media and fans.
He only entered the Qianzhou Provincial Track and Field Team after the National Day to officially train the 200-meter and 400-meter sprints, and it has only been more than 20 days since the full play, and he has been delayed for many days because of recording songs, filming MVs, signing Anta, and signing contracts with Qianzhou Provincial Tourism Ambassador.
The actual training time at the provincial track and field base is only a dozen days.
It was his planned plan to deliberately show the trajectory of his steady improvement in performance to the outside world, and he deliberately controlled the improvement of one level in each of the first three games. Improving the final by another hurdle, running between 44.6 seconds and 44.7 seconds, is also his established strategy.
With 10 months to go until the Peking Olympics, he only needs to upgrade to 43 seconds to win the Olympic final.
So, there's no need to act too demonic.
Moreover, Zhang Huasong also watched the news on the Internet and the discussions of netizens at noon, and he felt that occasionally disappointing the media and the audience might be in line with the performance of a normal person, and the media also had greater news hype.
Otherwise, when Zhang Huasong has become a habit of breaking records, it will not be news for him to break records, and it will not achieve his goal of exposing as much as possible, brushing more news, and gaining more popularity.
In the case that countless Chinese viewers and Zhang Huasong's fans expect him to break the Asian record, but Zhang Huasong is not ready to do so, the men's 400m final of the Wuhan City Games is about to begin.
