With a passionate prelude, the national flag was slowly raised. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Arise, ...... you who do not want to be slaves"
When Tang Hao walked with the national flag before, although the audience also sang the national anthem, but at that time it was more humming, and this time, driven by the melody of the national anthem, nearly 10,000 people sang loudly.
As the national flag continued to rise, everyone's face burst with pride.
This is a historic moment for Chinese swimming!
Some of the teammates of the national team were even more uncontrollable and burst into tears.
"Brave the enemy's artillery fire! Advance! Advance!"
The passionate music began, the passionate music ended, and when the march of the volunteers ended and the national flag was raised to the highest point, the scene suddenly burst into a burst of excited cheers.
This cheering lasted for more than half a minute.
"Come on, everyone leaned in the middle and took a group photo. When the audience's mood stabilized, the staff followed and shouted.
Margolione stood in the middle of the podium.
Because Tang Hao is relatively short, Park Tae-hwan and Sun Yang are both half-bent, plus Margolione in front, Tang Hao has a kind of starry moon at this time.
According to the schedule, the men's 400-meter freestyle final will be followed by the women's 400-meter freestyle and 100-meter women's freestyle relay, and Tang Hao can also take a little rest after the award ceremony.
The world record is broken, but his physical consumption is also quite large, and the system gives him the ability, but after all, it is only an auxiliary system, and he can't really exchange any virtual items to increase his physical strength, if there is, it is not much different from doping.
So at this time, he changed his clothes, and Sun Yang and the two of them honestly rested in the locker room, fortunately, there was a broadcast TV in the locker room, and they could also watch the game outside.
The women's 400m freestyle is not a strong event for the Chinese women's team, and Tang Yi, who reached the final, is also ranked eighth among all competitors.
The final result was also expected, although Tang Hao and Sun Yang shouted in the locker room, Tang Yi also tried his best, but in the end he only won the 5th place and missed the medal.
"Alas!"
The two of them sighed in unison.
At this time, the other runners of the relay race also came to the locker room, and when they saw the two of them watching the game, they quickly gathered around and crowded in front of the TV together, which was also a different taste.
After the women's 400m freestyle final, a 4x100 freestyle relay followed.
Ye Shiwen is the first stick of the Chinese team, after entering the water, Ye Shiwen showed his strong freestyle strength, and grabbed the top three positions at the beginning, almost on par with the Australian players, and when it came to the last 20 meters of sprint, accompanied by the crazy cheers of a group of people in the locker room, Ye Shiwen tried her best to overtake the past, and the second touched the wall.
The first baton of the relay race is to calculate the results, and after Ye Shiwen touched the wall, his results also came out, 53.12 seconds, this result directly broke the Asian record held by teammate Pang Jiayin, this stick is definitely extraordinary.
In fact, this is the charm of the relay race, in which the potential of the athletes is most easily stimulated.
"Awesome, my Xiaowen!" Tang Hao couldn't help but shout out the habitual words of his previous life, which immediately attracted a sideways glance from Sun Yang.
Ye Shiwen's first stick swim was excellent, but the next few sticks were average, and Tang Yi, who sprinted at the last stick, finally had obvious physical strength, and finally only won the sixth place.
After the game, the girls of the women's team hugged each other and cried.
Looking at this scene, the players in the men's relay couldn't help but shake their heads.
In fact, this is the strength of China's 100-meter freestyle relay, whether it is men's or women's, it is at least one grade below the world's top level.
"Hey, our girls are being bullied, everyone just shakes their heads?" Tang Hao stood up at this time and said.
As soon as he spoke, everyone else looked at him.
"Come up with some energy, don't be discouraged! Our strength is a little worse, but people must have dreams, without dreams, what is the difference between people and salted fish?" Tang Hao continued.
"Yes, let's do our best, whoever said that we would definitely lose, look at Tang Hao, 400 meters is not the same as winning the gold medal!" Ning Zetao was the first to speak.
"Yes, don't be discouraged, as long as we swim our own stick, it's not without a chance. Veteran Lu Zhibin followed.
"That is, we have the last stick of the day and day tour, and we are afraid that we will not get a medal?" Sun Yang said with a hint of ridicule, but also impassionedly.
Obviously, Tang Hao's salted fish theory played a role, and after a cheering ceremony, the players went to prepare for the game with confidence.
The men's 4x100m relay was the finale of the first night and one of the highlights of the day.
By the time the women's awards ceremony was over, the audience was already hungry and thirsty, just waiting to see the game.
The 100-meter swim measures the dominance of a swimmer, while the 100-meter relay measures the dominance of a country's overall swimming level.
In tonight's 100-meter freestyle relay, the teams that reached the finals are the strongest swimming countries, such as the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, etc., all of which have a glorious past in swimming.
Naturally, such a game is also star-studded.
When the teams walked out of the passageway, they always drew bursts of cheers from the audience.
Phelps, Magnussen, Rezak, Menard and Manado are all in the lineup.
The last to appear was the Chinese team, although the ranking in the preliminaries was not high, but the appearance of the boys still instantly ignited the venue.
That's the beauty of the home field.
Soon after entering, the contestants began to undress and put on swimming goggles.
On the Chinese team's side, when it was almost over, the veteran Lu Zhibin called everyone together, and after the four of them formed a circle for the final cheering before the game, Ning Zetao, who was the first stick, immediately boarded the starting platform.
"Come on, Chinese team!"
"Ning Zetao, come on!"
"Lu Zhibin, come on!"
"Come on, Sun Yang!"
"Tang Hao, come on!"
There were bursts of cheering from the crowd on the sidelines, and the enthusiasm of the audience was not discouraged by the defeat of the women's team, but became more and more high.
"The Chinese team is aiming for the last medal tonight! They are very young and represent the future of the Chinese swimming team!" The on-site commentator was also excited.
After the referee's signal, the first bats of each team were on the starting platform one after another.
The Chinese team finished seventh in the heats, and their lane was also the worst lane 1.
