Melbourne was at 9:30 a.m. local time on December 12, and 6:30 a.m. Beijing time.

The IAAF Melbourne Challenge has officially kicked off!

Due to the single-day competition and limited time, this challenge does not cover all track and field events, only 16 core events for men and women.

In this regard, the Chinese Athletics Association signed up for Zhang Qiyang to run, jump, and throw each race, that is, the javelin in the morning, the long jump in the afternoon and evening, and the 100 meters that attracted the most attention.

According to Zhang Qiyang's strength, he can still dominate a few more small competitions, but it doesn't make much sense to do that.

After all, this is just a one-stop challenge, and it has limited attention.

Breaking records is still done in major competitions such as the Diamond League, the World Championships, and the Olympic Games, which is more gimmicky.

Zhang Qiyang himself has also made up his mind, this time he came to Melbourne to compete, it is a small flashing of the sword, and it will not release too dazzling brilliance.

He will not greatly improve his world record score, break the world record, and get the status of world record holder, so that he can participate in all the track and field competitions next year without hindrance.

Unlike ordinary athletes who take a urine test after the competition, Zhang Qiyang was required to take a double drug test before and after the competition.

The team accompanying the Association lodged a habitual protest against this practice by the IAAF, but the result could not be changed, and Zhang Qiyang had to take a double drug test.

Zhang Qiyang didn't say anything about this, he had just been born, and others had doubts about him, which was normal and understandable.

I believe that when Bolt was born in another life, he also encountered such a strict drug test.

If you want to become a superstar across the generations, you must first withstand the test of this first step.

Zhang Qiyang didn't talk nonsense, sprinkled a huge amount of urine, a liter of it, and let the IAAF anti-doping team smell his urine well!

After the flood, Zhang Qiyang easily stood on the javelin field and immediately became the focus of the field.

Many of the spectators who came to the stadium to watch the challenge this time were Chinese from all over Australia, and they became the most beautiful scenery in the audience.

The five-star red flag fluttered in the wind, and the audience was full of Chinese cheers cheering for the cannon master, which made Zhang Qiyang full of pride and spirit!

In overseas competitions, I can see thousands of Chinese compatriots cheering for me, this feeling is very proud!

What makes Zhang Qiyang even more proud is that these overseas Chinese are actually quite familiar with his music.

Seeing him appear, I don't know who took the lead, but the audience actually sang the Chinese version of "Men Should Be Self-Improvement"! This made Zhang Qiyang's blood boil!

CCTV Sports Channel purchased the broadcast rights of this challenge and will broadcast the three competitions in which Zhang Qiyang participated in the whole process.

Early in the morning, Zhang Qiyang's javelin competition, seeing so many Chinese spectators sitting on the side of the field, CCTV reporters were very excited, they all looked forward to Zhang Qiyang can live up to expectations, and broke the world record in the first competition, blasting a heavy punch from the East to the world!

Everyone's expectations are high, after all, they have all seen Zhang Qiyang's amazing performance at the Chengdu Grand Prix. That's when he threw a javelin throw of 120.87 meters!

Almost all of the foreign competitors and the judges of the tournament have seen Zhang Qiyang's performance at the Chengdu Challenge, and they all know that this tall and lanky Chinese boy has amazing strength in his body.

When Zhang Qiyang was about to throw the first shot, everyone was far away from the field, and the runway one hundred and fifty meters away was cleared, for fear that Zhang Qiyang would throw too much distance against the sky.

But Zhang Qiyang's first throw was a little disappointing, because he did not break out of arrogance, Zhang Qiyang's first throw was purely based on his advanced muscle strength and explosive power, and only threw a score of 88.75 meters.

After Zhang Qiyang threw the javelin, everyone looked 100 meters away, but they didn't expect to even throw 90 meters in the end, which made the scene sigh.

Although the Melbourne Challenge did not cover the Olympics with hundreds of media outlets, it still sold the live broadcast rights of more than 30 TV stations.

CCTV Sports Channel has the exclusive live broadcast rights in China, and at the same time, South Korea, foot basins and other countries in East Asia have also purchased live broadcast rights.

South Korea and the footbasin are very concerned about the performance of the Oriental Dragon, and they even pay more attention to Zhang Qiyang's every move than ourselves, for fear that China will produce a real dragon and steal the limelight from the world.

Early that morning, South Korea and Footbasin TV broadcast the Melbourne game live earlier than China.

After Zhang Qiyang threw the first shot, the hosts of South Korea and the footbasin actually laughed, and there was something to say sarcastically about Zhang Qiyang's previous performance in the Chengdu Grand Prix.

In their opinion, with the current strength of the earthlings, it is impossible for anyone to throw more than 100 meters of javelin! Zhang Qiyang actually threw 120 meters at the Chengdu Grand Prix before, only ghosts will believe in Chinese ghosts!

CCTV's sports reporter didn't have any harsh criticism of Zhang Qiyang's first throw, because to be honest, 88.75 meters is already a very good result!

The javelin champion at the last World Championships only threw 89.23 meters.

If you can throw more than 89 meters, you can already have the capital to impact medals in the World Championships.

Throw more than 90 meters to hit the gold medal.

Zhang Qiyang threw 88.75 meters in the first throw, which is already very competitive. It's just that people's expectations for him are too high, so they feel that this distance is not enjoyable.

This time, the Javelin Challenge in Melbourne was the champion of the last World Championships, Belarusian Sakin. and Owen, a British player who has won six races in this year's Diamond League and is currently ranked No. 1 in the javelin throw.

Since only 12 players signed up for the competition, there was no preliminaries for the javelin competition in this challenge, and it was directly a six-gun duel of 12 people.

After the first round of throwing, Zhang Qiyang's 88.75 meters, which was embarrassed by everyone, was actually the farthest distance!

Neither Owen nor Sakin threw more than 87 meters in the first round.

From this point of view, Zhang Qiyang's performance has been very good, but sports commentators in Japan and South Korea, as well as some sports commentators in Europe and the United States who always look at Oriental players with colored glasses, still speak coldly about Zhang Qiyang's performance.

Many people even commented directly on the show that with the strength of Zhang Qiyang's throw, it is impossible to create a performance of more than 120 meters. That is to say, in the previous competition in China, the Chinese must have faked.

There are also people who raise this issue to a moral level, criticizing China as a big country of fraud, all kinds of data fraud, news fraud, and now even sports results are fake, and the Chinese are so fake that they can no longer be fake!

Such a comment will definitely not reach the ears of the Chinese people, and Zhang Qiyang will not hear such an outrageous comment, but several javelin throwers competing in the same field have a small view of his first throw, which really stimulates Zhang Qiyang's exuberant fighting spirit.
