Chapter 22 of the text shows off his powers
3:30AM Morning Call, Zhang Yuan, after getting up and washing, walked alone to the hotel restaurant, 15 minutes to have breakfast, before 5 o'clock in the morning, they must arrive at the parking lot of the park, the contestants need to register, get the number bib and GPS chip.
At the starting point, Zhang Yuan's dream lover who had been in trouble for a long time finally appeared, and it was Suzy Cai, Cai Jieyi, who looked taller and had a better figure. Looking at her this time, she was more sunny, looking at Zhang Yuan in the distance with a smile in her eyes, she was waving to him...
Xu Xiaoyan looked at it, judging from her eyes that Suzy was facing Zhang Yuan, meaning to say: Long time no see, how are you? I remember you, you know?
Zhang Yuan also stared at Suzy blankly, but he didn't wave his hand, just smirked in a daze...
Xu Xiaoyan was thinking, it seems that she hasn't seen her for more than a month, and there is no news or news, but it doesn't affect their relationship... On the contrary, this separation may make them cherish each other more and cherish the rare time together.
Mrs. Huang patted Zhang Yuan's arm, Zhang Yuan looked back in shock, and caused Suzy in the distance to laugh.
Mrs. Huang sighed secretly but at the same time joked: You happy fool, Ah Yuan, pay attention to the position of your shoelaces and chips, it doesn't seem right, tidy up well, then it will be much safer.
Zhang Yuan realized that he had not disposed of the shoelaces and chips, and if the shoelaces were wrapped around the bicycle gears, it would be a big or small accident.
What a nerd... Zhang Yuan immediately checked it once until everything was normal.
For this morning's race, Group F had already started an hour earlier, T21 had departed half an hour earlier, and now it was their turn to race in T18. At the top of the list was him, Zhang Yuan, and others, including his friends Huang Futao, Masashi Saito, and Mark. Davis was all in the same row, and the rest of the riders were Sam, Aman, and Von. Peter, and such a big man, Jamaican from the Caribbean, known as the "Big Bird" all-round athlete, was specially invited to join the EU-US cycling team.
John. Poole. Rubis, flanked by the "Vibrant" Meng Jiawei and the Kenyan team, with the African star's Abeiba. There were ten people in Allati.
Singapore's Deputy Prime Minister with a gun in his hand... When the gun is fired, the race begins, and this special event is an elite invitational tournament, with more than 600 drivers participating in 16 events, and the world's best drivers and teams are currently gathered here...
Taking T18 as an example, no one doubts that the top five champions of the race are also the handicaps opened by the World Color Roll Company, and the odds for the individual champion and the constructors' championship are as follows:
First, Zhang Yuan and the "Jinchong" cycling team, 1 to 1.5
Second, the "invigorating" Huang Futao, 1 to 6.5
Third, Masashi Saito of Japan's Yamanashi "Kawaguchi", 8.8 to 1
Fourth, John of Jamaica. Poole. Rubis, 13 to 1
The fifth is Mark. Davis, 22 to 1
Other riders, including Von Fernandes. Peter, both 99.9 to 1
Bicycle racing has also become a gambling event, and the riders are helpless!
Back at the race site, turn left from the park gate to Sentosa Island, where the park belongs, and the bridge to the city center, and the temperature in Singapore is already 32 degrees Celsius on the morning of 7:00, yes, it is really 32 degrees Celsius.
Entering the city, the first runner was Huang Futao, who walked through VIVO City first, and not far away was the large Ferris wheel in Singapore, which was filled with photographers and countless cameras from all over the world, 360-degree scanning to capture the state of the top drivers.
Entering the city, with the stadium on the left, and then the Marine Parade district, the morning along the coastline road is sunny and hot, and every rider is accelerating, speeding up for the pink suit, fighting for the yellow suit!
Huang Futao's top speed is 113.8 kilometers, but the Jamaican athletes' numbers are even higher, reaching 117.35 kilometers. Everyone is shocked by the data.
Zhang Yuan only galloped on the coastal road at a high speed of about 105 kilometers, because he knew that I was not as good as you in the straight sprint, balance and courage, but I would snatch back my royal position and dignity in the hillside section.
Therefore, Zhang Yuan doesn't mind who the pink jersey belongs to, and he doesn't care that the car will wear a yellow jersey tomorrow morning, he only cares about the champion standing on the podium in the end, and wearing the yellow jersey is enough for himself.
Every day, every quarter, just grasp the best time and position, and the final victory is yours.
When Leo went to Guangxi to visit Zhang Yuan, who was on recuperation, he told Zhang Yuan, who was undergoing physical treatment, his strategy and goals, and explained to him the story of the 10-athlete competition at the 1960 Rome Olympics.
At that time, the Chinese ironman Yang Quanguang won the first place in seven events in the Roman Olympic decathlon competition, but the Olympic decathlon gold medal champion was the American athlete and his friend Rafer Lewis Johnson (Yang Chuanguang's shot put performance was too poor and lost the gold medal)
Therefore, Zhang Yuan remembered Leo's story, his strength is that he wants to strive for the best, and his weakness is that he can't change his badness, bite the front, form their pressure, and then throw them farther away when he is strong.
At this time, Huang Futao took the lead and marched from Changi Airport to the military airport, there are no mountains in Singapore, so Zhang Yuan's position does not need to be too sudden to become the target of public criticism. On the contrary, Lubis of Jamaica, von . Peter's power drivers are trying to use the road level to accelerate, so as to create a local advantage.
What you think of, can't other drivers think of? It's only been more than 10 kilometers since then, don't think about it so much, just keep up with the front, don't be thrown too far away, that's what Leo gave the whole team to "rush" on the first day of the race.
After passing the goose, to the zoo, and then to the center, the road is a very gentle small uphill, there will be no obstacle to the speed of the riders, as soon as the WEST MALL passes, you will go to the famous Nanyang Technological University and Zhixin Museum in Singapore, and then the new sea-crossing bridge, the new Star Horse Bridge.
Exit the Sharf Bridge and turn right to see Johor Bahru's most popular Timber Paradise and Johor Bahru Bukit Indah, where Wong Phhoo leads all his rivals north and takes the AH2 road to the left at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia.
At this time, the Jamaican driver Rubis had already passed Masashi Saito, but when he saw from the camera, Masashi Saito was driven by, he did not feel the slightest shock and surprise, but instead gave up a gap for Rubis to walk forward.
Now in the rankings, first, Huang Futao, second, Lubis, third, Masashi Saito, fourth, Mark. Davis and fifth, von. Peter...
Zhang Yuan is in eighth place, Sam is in seventh, Ah Man is in ninth place, Ah Beiba is in sixth place, and Meng Jiawei is in tenth place.
Turn left and head towards the coast of Malacca, and it is a long and slightly sloping ordinary road to enter one of the small towns in the Straits of Malacca, "Pontain Kecil". After that, the riders were racing along the seaside road, and the first ten people in the front of T18 were divided into two groups, the first and second places were separated by a bicycle space, about 0.08 seconds away, and the second and third places were about 20 meters apart, and it took 4 hours from the start to the present, and they arrived at the halfway rest stop.
According to the rules of the race, each driver is given a two-hour rest, including lunch, Huang Futao is the first to arrive in the city called "Batu Pahat", pause for rest and lunch, the driver's own food and drink, the assistant will take care of it in the morning, and after 120 minutes, the first driver must set off.
Huang Futao is very smart, stay in the driver's rest area for two hours before setting off again, eat, digest, rest (meditate or nap), absorb nutrients in a short period of time and reuse them as energy, quickly replenish and enhance endurance, this is the past to the present, Huang Futao's personal secret skills, but also the way Leo used to teach him.
What about the Jamaican players? INSTEAD OF EATING AMERICAN FOOD AND FAST FOOD, HE EATS A LOT OF ENERGY AND BANANAS, FOLLOWED BY A LOT OF ENERGY DRINKS AND A GLASS OF RUM. After that, it was a bath and an electric massage chair massage, and I also rested for two hours, which was about the same time as Huangfutao (more than ten seconds slower). Originally, there were only two imaginary enemies in his eyes, the first was Zhang Yuan and the second was Huang Futao, but he didn't expect that Zhang Yuan, a little man, was exaggerated and not a problem at all.
On the contrary, this arrogant Oriental Huang Fu Tao has always appeared as a leader, giving people a cold and sunny big boy. Poole. Rubis, 1.92 meters tall and 68 kilograms in weight, is more standard and stronger than any of you, better than physical quality and endurance, I am an all-round athlete, I am a master in every sport, because I am a genius, and it is inevitable to win you.
In the afternoon, Lubis started a little later than Huang Futao, so so far in the game, it seems that Huang Futao is the leader, in essence, Huang Futao is still a little ahead, but it is one thing for the super competitive Lubis to not be any opponent at all.
But he forgot that it was the first time in his life that he had competed in a bicycle race. His knowledge and understanding of cycling was given to him by the experts.
But he has no practical experience, the theory of the expert master of the bicycle, no matter how carefully explained, can not make Lubis 100% perceived, clear and understand, without personal experience and gain experience, it is different, it is easy to be confused by the outside world, especially the strategy and strategy of the opponent, it is easy to make beginners lost...
Returning to the world of Rubis in the past, three-year-old John Brown. Poole. RUBIS IS ALREADY PLAYING SOFTBALL. Because his parents were from a sports family, his father was a professional American player (Major Leagues Baseball), and his mother was a sports journalist, national archery team selector and professional photographer, for Lubis Jr., learning to be a baseball pitcher was his dream.
Of course, he is also full of vigor in swinging, and his catcher skills and sprinting are his strengths.
Therefore, before being recruited into this bicycle race, the 17-year-old Rubis has been known as a local sports genius star, just like the Olympic 100-meter sprint world record holder, Jamaica's treasure "Pote", Lubis is born, is an excellent sports seed, coupled with the acquired training, family and country training, and now plus a shrewd big business as a sponsor, the world's largest sports brand YIKI, has long been interested in Lubis.
YIKI's project has a brilliant insight and financial support, and they want to be another Jamaican star, in the field of ball, football, or other sports activities, since "Pote" is an iconic figure 10 years ago, the next 10 years, it will be the turn of John. Poole. Rubis up.
Returning to the reality of the Star Horse Cycling Race, Lubis rushed forward before the finish of the first day of the race, and finally took the lead in the first race. He was a full 3 minutes faster than his European and American companions (second in the same group) and he was a newcomer to the tournament for the first time! He's an unknown man, but he's also a genius!
In the past, not many bicycle practitioners knew about this man, John. Poole. Rubis, a terrifying creature, shows off his strength, like a 25-year-old professional cyclist, with skill, strategy, fitness and stamina, each of which is superior to others.
Will Huang Futao be able to win him on the last day? The TV clerk asked the question again and again. Because this is short-sightedness is the habit of the media, only in the case of red and white, can more news and topics be created, they will report on the history and essence of Lubis at great length, and lace news will always attract the most readers' attention.
If the first person on the first day is Masashi Saito, the media will also say some interesting things that even Masashi Saito himself does not know, the so-called unknown background and growth path. In short, if it's special enough, it's news, and no one cares if it's real or not.
The newcomer Lubis, not worried that readers will feel bored because they are used to the bicycle riders of the past, and when a newcomer appears in the light curtain, the media will brag about it again, so that the newcomer will be in the news, and the sports headline will be the result of a reporter's day's work.
Huang Futao and Masashi Saito were both overdone by Rubis, and it was the headlines of tomorrow's sports edition.
Huang Futao did not change his strategy because of Rubis's expert tactics, and he did not take the Jamaican lightly at all, as his size is perfect for speed time trials.
He's also one of the few all-round athletes, but... That doesn't mean he's going to be the king in the road bike.
Perhaps, Huang Futao's first glance is the kind of comprehensive genius type, that is, the kind that is easy to do everything and work, and quickly becomes a professional or a leader among them. But this is not the characteristics of the emperor, he is extremely an expert and leader in some short sections, but he does not have the most special characteristics of a cyclist, as for how to describe the characteristics of this bicycle king, he did not think about it, because this is the characteristic of his relationship with Zhang Yuan's Yuliang.
Aside from himself and Zhang Yuan, he couldn't see how many of the more than 200 competitors in the T18 race had the temperament of a king.
Reluctantly, this guy Saito Masashi also has the temperament of an emperor, but it doesn't seem to have the maturity and wisdom of my emperor. But Saito gave way to Rubis, it's definitely not a physical problem, if it's physical fitness, it's a simple act, but when you look at his eyes, he is also confident about this game, has his potential fully exploded?
Huang Fu Tao was thinking about this person (Qi Teng Masaki) and his performance at dinner, as for Zhang Yuan, he never despised this opponent, because he was born and born with a certain number of people, that is, as the saying goes, a peerless master, and his talent is higher than that of himself (Huang Fu Tao), so he can lose convincingly.
But.... It doesn't mean I'll lose to you next time, that's how Huang Futao behaved, and it's no wonder that he is hailed as the youngest and most promising rider in cycling road racing.
On the first day of the race, nothing exciting happened today, it rained and there was no thunder, and it was not very rainy.
The only wonder is that after the afternoon rainstorm, the players who are drenched, before the sun appears, because of the heat of the body, the sportswear is dried by the body temperature, each athlete is like the protagonist of a martial arts novel, the body will emit white gas, the bicycle athlete is too good, the body temperature makes the soaked shirts and pants dry in just 10 to 20 minutes, except for this selling point, everyone can not find a fresh story...
Therefore, the evening news and evening newspapers all report the situation at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and the entertainment component is also the request of the audience.
The media in Singapore and all over Asia and even the world have appeared with the new "Baote" in the bicycle industry, and the emperors of the past are in danger, as the headline, at a glance, the headlines of this news are indeed very attractive to us to buy this newspaper, however, when Lubis arrived at Port Dichen, the time is only 2.5 seconds faster than Huang Futao, only 5.8 seconds faster than the third Saito Masaki, not a genius master at all, extremely just an excellent athlete, from the level of the emperor, there is still a long way to go.
It's just that ordinary people are used to being confused by the camera.
In the seaside resort of Port Deeson, the most low-key is believed to be the group of "Jinchong" riders, who eat dinner silently and then go to sleep. Including Huang Qiang and his wife, employees and fan groups, they will not be interviewed and filmed.
Leo only asked for this tournament to be low-key and silent throughout the whole game, as long as he did his part. Therefore, without media interviews, it is not used as a pre-preparation, and the drivers and staff are more prepared for the pre-race requirements and reduce their psychological stress. Leo believes that the absence of extra pressure was the key factor in this victory, and that the performance of CALM HEART was the best result.
The next morning, Zhang Yuan and Huang Futao did not have the opportunity to wear the yellow jersey, the pink jersey originally belonged to Lubis, but he chose to wear the yellow jersey, he carried the pink jersey to his teammates, wore the yellow jersey himself, and gave an exclusive interview to the media (this is arranged by a large enterprise, even if he doesn't want to, he will do it, not to mention that he likes the spotlight).
The focus of the media is on him alone, this morning's Rubis, his eyes are full of confidence, on the contrary, Huang Futao looks much calmer and indifferent when he wears the traditional white suit of "Zhenyang". Because, he knows that concentration can improve his state to the best situation, because, he has discovered...
Zhang Yuan is not normal, because he looks very calm, not like him usually - nerd. In addition to him, George is also very calm, and Ah An is unusually concentrated, like another Sam, what kind of magic did Leo do? Elevate their mental state to the level of a professional driver? And it's four people too...The group of drivers who "rushed", such a terrible opponent...
Wong Fu Tao called his fellow CHEER YOUNG, Meng Ka Wai, who was ranked in the top 10, Hui Hoi Fung, who was ranked 28th, and Qiu Kin-wing who was ranked 37th, to discuss the details and strategy of the race, and how to deal with the excellent performance of STRONG RUSH.
Their 'Lifting' drivers are experienced and mentally minded youngsters who love to challenge and try different formations to set results and records. However, these conditions were only unique to the "Zhenyang" family in the past, and with the introduction of Zhang Yuan, a nerd master, in the past three years, the situation of the dominance of the "Zhenyang" team in the past has become a confrontation with the "Jinchong" duo...
Huang Futao said: We have not weakened, but the opponent has finally found their own way of playing and cultivated their own unique cultural quality of "Jin Chong", and I am proud to have this amazing opponent.
We are 550 years old and there is no weaker situation than them, but in fact, you are not focused enough, and it is easy to worry about your own ability, is this the performance of a champion team in Hong Kong?
We're going to win this race, I can, I'm sure you can too, you have to be more focused than usual today, especially when we enter the new Kuala Lumpur City, where the buildings and the lake are beautiful, but let's not look at that, let alone the beautiful women in the cheering crowd, I want everyone to just look at the race lane and the teammates, and the other teams, we don't pay attention, including 'Rush' and 'Kawaguchi'.
Lubis is just his own business, you can ignore it, so, the class winner is not Jamaica, he wants the individual championship, this arrogant guy is just going to be a hero, do you think I will do what he wants?
Meng Jiawei, Xu Kaifeng and Qiu Jianrong all said together: No
Huang Futao continued: That's right, he is dreaming to win my championship, but I will work harder to get rid of him, you go according to the plan, but you can't leave me too far, the other three said: Yes, everything is arranged by the captain.
At 5:00 a.m., Port Deeson Avenue has been sealed and cleared, and the game is about to begin...
At 6:00, the race officially began, from Port Dichen to Kuala Lumpur, both of which are mountainous but not too inclined highway auxiliary roads, and motorists can maintain the high-speed race. The leading Lubis had already taken the lead at the start of the new Kuala Lumpur International Airport, and the road side road was flatter and straighter, allowing Lubis to further stretch the distance between Wong Fu Tao and Masashi Saito to 1.8 seconds and 2.3 seconds, and unsurprisingly, before entering the new Kuala Lumpur city, Lubis could actually throw off Wong Fu Tao for more than 3 seconds.
The most terrifying thing about Rubis is that he has infinite strength, even in the headwind, where the wind is at its highest, Lubis is still bursting with his infinite foot strength and physical strength. Yesterday, when Huang Futao passed, the live TV broadcast was already shouting loudly, and some TV stations even reported that the three years of Huang Futao and Zhang Yuan's era had been announced to be over. This sentence is definitely the headline news of the sports pages of major media tomorrow.
The appearance of Rubis was a shock bomb for Asian and European cyclists, he was indeed very tall and strong, only 17 years old, and there was no one who was so unknown that not many people even knew the location of his homeland, Jamaica in the Caribbean, on the map.
And his birth turned out to be the first, second, and third person who has always dominated Asia, and even the world's youth, Huang Futao, Zhang Yuan and Saito Masashi, the three masters, all in one go. In an instant, he was rushed by the monster Rubis, this kind of shock, isn't it terrifying?
Some media dramas said that to test his DNA, is he 17 years old? Some also say that it is not enough to test urine, and it is better to test even blood, which is too terrible rubis.
The camera deliberately pulled forward to shoot Huang Futao, who was driving his bicycle very calmly, without a shocked expression, as if everything had nothing to do with him. Because, like Zhang Yuan, he regarded himself as a chess piece in Go.
When he is a pawn, he has to work hard to attack and defend, but when he transforms from a pawn to a chess player, he has a clear understanding of the situation, his teammates and even other players. The opponent's teammates are all white or black Go pieces, and the competition venue is the chess board.
Huang Futao in the chess game, musculoskeletal and even breathing, are all set for this game of chess, and when he takes a step back to watch the chess game, he is the protagonist of this chess game. This alternation of identities as both coach and captain is the most enjoyable joy of life for Huang Futao.
Entering the heart of the new Kuala Lumpur city centre, the large Islamic temple, the beautiful bridges and lakes are so beautiful that for the first-time riders, it is somewhat of a shadow of their concentration, and in the T18 race, only the drivers of "Cheering", "Kawaguchi", "Holland" and "Rush" were not affected.
Personally, Lubis certainly had no interest in admiring the buildings, so he didn't even glance at them.
For Masashi Saito, the comprehension of Zen Taoism from Buddhism has made him have a strong will from childhood to adulthood, and he can forge ahead wholeheartedly, and competing for the championship with the best masters is his greatest joy. He also loves the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers, but he must wait until he is on the podium to see it!
Mark. Davis is probably in this way, and he will not forget the game and his personal dignity for the sake of the slightest beauty.
The group of riders also walked silently, keeping up with the front (within sight) is their goal, leaving the central area of Kuala Lumpur and heading towards the northeast corner of the city, the road to Pahang, which is the road into the mountains, and the mountain is uphill, and the cool and comfortable uphill slope begins.
The casino in Genting Highlands is very famous, so the road up the mountain is not as hard and difficult as expected, the frequency of Lubis has not weakened, Huangfu Tao followed step by step, less than three parking spaces behind Lubis is Saito Masashi, and the next half parking space is Zhang Yuan.
Before they knew it, Zhang Yuan and Sam had already crawled past Mark. Davis and Feng. Peter and the two, Aman also occupied the eighth place, and Meng Jiawei also threw off the king of Kenya, Ah Beiba, to become the ninth. Arrive at the casino and hotel in Genting Highlands and the morning session ends.
Everyone has two hours for lunch and rest, and Lubis arrives 3.8 seconds before Huangfutao, who arrives 5 seconds after Masashi Saito; The time of less than 3 seconds after Saito is Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan's less than 2 seconds is followed by Sam, and Sam is 8 seconds after Mark. Davis, Mark 10 seconds after is von. Peter, Feng Peter is Aman 2 seconds later, Meng Jiawei is 5 seconds after Aman, and Meng Jiawei only arrives at Ah Beiba 22 seconds later.
It seems that Ah Beiba has lost the qualification to compete for the bid, and Meng Jiawei is also very reluctant...
After a calm lunch and rest, the afternoon game began, leaving the Yunxiang Plateau Gambling House, and immediately the downhill section was due to the afternoon rainstorm and the cold weather on the plateau. Therefore, the wind blowing is also a little chilly, so the fierce back mountain wind also affects the flexibility of the driver, whether it is the participating driver, in the face of such bad weather, a veteran like Huang Futao will also be very cautious and never take risks.
But only Lubis was not afraid, and rushed forward without slowing down...
Lubis' training and character:
Before Lubis signed up for this race, he had already been sent from Jamaica to the National Sports Center by the American corporations behind him to receive special cycling training. The so-called special training includes testing on doubtful road sections and continuous special training missions to Costa Rica and East Malaysia under the same key factors such as climate and pressure terrain.
On every stretch of road and every road condition, there is a pre-race analysis and execution procedure by experts, with the aim of making Lubis more focused on winning the race, and nothing else, it doesn't matter.
What he is carrying is not his own dreams, but the interests of the financial group behind him, and of course, his personal interests. Therefore, he has to continue to use his body and technology to create global sports news, and use his unscrupulous so-called American style to create more marginal topics outside of sports, so as to contribute to the market boom.
Lubis' sponsors have really had a great time this time, as Lubis's results on the first day of the race alone have resulted in 3 million more orders for YIKI's bikes and peripherals, and today, Lubis is still the leader, and he needs more surprises. In this way, the newspapers, television and the Internet have been widely reported, and YIKI's bicycle series has become a big seller...
The second day ends at the National Badminton Sports Centre in Ipoh, the capital of the state of Perak, Malaysia. Waiting for them, in addition to the staff and media, there are also fans from all over the world...
A group of Korean women, with homemade banners, wrote, Zhang Yuan International Car Club Fan Group South Korea Branch, there is also a banner on the side, writing, Zhang Yuan International Car Club Fan Group Malaysia Branch Perak, the language is not shocking and endless, this is a media reporter reported on the spot.
It rains all the time, so the slippery ground is the situation that the riders fear the most, and their only purpose is not to be meritorious, but to be unharmed (not over). So, the first place runner on the second day crossed the finish line, and it was still John. Poole. Rubis. The second and third are Huang Futao and Saito Masashi, the fourth and fifth are Zhang Yuan and Sam, and the rest of the positions have not changed.
The rooms in the hotel have very comfortable jacuzzis, so the treatment of all kinds of seed drivers is different, and the drivers of "Jinchong" are still low-key, basically not saying anything, to the media, to the fans... For other drivers, colleagues and friends, don't speak, silently do your job is the only thing to do, don't think about useless things and people, you can really be "strong and rushing" in the race.
On the third day, Lubis appeared in the race in a striking yellow jersey, but no one wore a pink jersey because Rubis was also the fastest driver on the second day, both first and fastest time holder, and he still chose the most glorious yellow jersey for the race.
The race started at 6:00 a.m. and the weather was fine this morning, but yesterday it rained all night and it was a particularly cool morning, and the riders were in better shape during the race, with an average speed of 35% faster than yesterday afternoon.
Of course, the downhill feels fast, but it's definitely dangerous, so the flat road is the best place to accelerate to your opponent. So, the open road of today's race is definitely a place for the riders to compete for victory.
Lubis was fond of swimming, especially the sea, and he knew that this day was at noon on the most beautiful beach in Western Malaysia, the best place for diving, and on the island of Pulau, he would not care about the instructions of the instructor, but would run at a speed under the command of the average speed required by the instructor.
When the aerial photography of Lubis in a lone yellow battle suit in the rising sun under the beautiful scenery of the sun, sent to the world, the cover of his personal sports suit has been published on the Internet, twenty or thirty first-class drivers were thrown by him one by one, to welcome the rising sun with him with the golden yellow rice field, this moment of Lubis is a god, too beautiful photos...
Arrive in the city of Glass, and quickly arrive at the small pier square on the way to Langkawi, which is also the noon rest area today. Lubis was a full 25 seconds faster than Huang Futao, who finished second. Yes, 25 seconds faster than Huangfu Tao, 27 seconds faster than Masashi Saito, and a little more than 30 seconds faster than Zhang Yuan, the commentator on the live TV broadcast said that the ranking of other drivers is useless, anyway, you can't see it on the podium...
Most of the riders had lunch and rested on the ferry across Langkawi. The afternoon schedule is the race around Langkawi, narrow roads and many bends in the lot, Lubis does not like these roads and is not used to changing gears, in terms of time and distance, all give the East Asian tigers a time and distance to catch up close.
Sure enough, Lubis was still the first to cross the line when he returned to Langkawi Pier, but he was only 3.5 seconds faster than Huangfutao, 4.3 seconds faster than Saito and five seconds faster than Zhang Yuan.
Over the four days, Lu was 5.75 seconds faster than Huangfu Tao, 6.15 seconds faster than Masashi Saito, and 7.78 seconds faster than Zhang Yuan. That evening, during a video conference on American transoceanic crossing, a group of American experts reviewed the events of the fourth day of the game and the strategy for tomorrow.
What worries them is that the East Asian Three Tigers don't seem to be competing with all their might, and Lubis and his teammates, today, on the fourth day of the competition, the results and physical test numbers indicate that today is the top peak of the whole team, and tomorrow, they are afraid that the state of the top peak will fall as their physical strength drops.
For the first time, Lubis felt the pressure, and his teammates were also under pressure, and the question was whether they could extend the situation until tomorrow's twilight. Dieters, psychologists and tech consultants on bicycles all think it's okay, but it makes the rider feel more stressed...
At 3:00 a.m. on the last day of the competition, Huangfu Tao was doing yoga; Qi Teng is meditating and Tuna, Zhang Yuan is still sleeping, and 5:00 is the morning call. Lubis lost sleep for the first time, he took a lot of supplements and energy water, HIP HOT music made him relax a lot, he could fall asleep, 5:05 Morning Call lasted for 5 minutes, Lubis's professor walked into his room, it turned out that the headphones were over Lubis, no wonder he didn't feel that he had slept too much, so he couldn't get up.
At the beginning of the competition, Huang Futao was most afraid of the situation of the crowd advancing together, so he made a full effort to advance at the beginning, and in the big detour that left the Perlis Gymnasium, he did not slow down but accelerated, and suddenly passed the unfocused Lubis.
When Lubis knew that it was too late to be obsolete, sure enough, there was no vanity under the fame. Because, when Lubis was surprised, he looked back, Zhang Yuan also passed him, and the way to get rid of Lubis was like everything, which was an environment that Rubis would never have imagined (it should be that the American expert group did not expect the situation)
The first big detour was passed by the two Chinese ace drivers at once, how will Rubis deal with himself? He had to chase hard, but unfortunately, the lack of concentration at the start would lead to the situation of being taken from the position. In fact, Masashi Saito's silent and colorless run also made Lubis lose control of his spirit again, because he did not speed up on a road with a big slope (as most riders do, they are afraid that the bicycle will not be able to brake, so they have to control the speed), but Masashi Saito is not a fuel-efficient lamp, as soon as he sees this rare opportunity, he accelerates desperately and passes Rubis again.
It's miserable, Lubis, the leader in the yellow jersey, was passed by his three most important competitors in less than two minutes, and if it were you, you would be just as angry...
After the race, Masashi Saito gave Lubis a message: Because from the beginning to the end, you don't know what the spirit of cooperation and the skill of cycling are. For an extremely talented athlete like Lubis, every competition is easy, but the truth is that the best in every sport has these three prerequisites:
1. Competitors must have a complete understanding of themselves and their equipment, so do you like driving a bicycle, Lubis?
2. Has he learned about the accessories and construction of the bike?
3. Did he make a personal sacrifice for the team?
These three issues have not been thought about and dealt with, or even faced. If he wins the championship, who will be convinced by so many cyclists in the world?
Therefore, since Huang Futao and Zhang Yuan have taught you an arrogant lesson harshly, I, Masashi Saito, haha, will not be polite to you.
With the power of Huang Futao, Zhang Yuan and Masashi Saito, Lubis, who had always been self-righteous in the first four days of the game, felt for the first time that he could not underestimate his opponent's figure when playing against Asians.
Because, they will not pay less than me, only more, Lubis immediately restrained his arrogance, step by step on his bicycle, to chase the three seed players not far ahead...
That being said, when it came time to execute, Rubis was like a frightened bird, and he frequently looked back at the group of opponents who were chasing him. Davis will chase a skill to the point of approaching, von. Peter also wants to teach this arrogant Jamaican vegetable bird a lesson, I am much older than you, you should learn the game slowly, don't think too much.
Don't challenge us veterans, it's better to stay on the bike because you don't know what a road bike race is.
Back in Alor Setar, the capital of Kedah, the tall TV tower is the local marker, and the square under the tower is the lunch break for the day. The cumulative results are out.
Temporarily ranked first is Huang Futao; 3.7 seconds faster than Zhang Yuan, who was in second place; Zhang Yuan is 3.3 seconds faster than Masashi Saito; Saito was only 0.2 seconds faster than Rubis, followed by Mark. Davis, the difference between the two is 0.6 seconds.
IN THE AFTERNOON, START AT ALOR SETAR AND THEN GO TO BUTTERWORTH, CROSS THE BEAUTIFUL NEW PENANG BRIDGE, AND REACH THE PENANG RACECOURSE BEFORE THE SUN SETS. Huang Futao's emotions did not fluctuate because of the first at the moment, because the fluctuation is the heart floating, which means negative emotions, he does not allow these negative emotions to exist at the critical moment of the game, and a little bit of negative emotions are side effects to Huang Futao, which will only affect his results.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, the last part of the competition begins, at noon in early summer, near the northwest seaside of West Malaysia, the temperature and humidity are not high, and it is a little dry, and the rain may not appear at three o'clock in the afternoon, if there is, it will not be too big, and the results of the game will not be affected.
Today's results will be very good, at the beginning, for the sake of self-esteem, Lubis did not play according to the requirements of the coach's plan, first clinging to his current position, however, Lubis was full of enthusiasm and eager to climb back to the first position.
However, all the riders have already walked more than 1,200 kilometers, and in theory, every rider is tired. Therefore, learning to be able to collect and release and make use of the team's cooperation to maintain the formation of the wind sprint and reduce the excessive wear and tear of physical fitness is the "royal road" to victory. At the moment, only the "Rush" team can do it.
Meng Jiawei of "Zhenyang" could have done it, but this time the driver was too strong, so Huang Futao wanted to use this trick but no one cooperated, so he could only fight alone.
However, the four-member group of "Rush", after years of tacit understanding, can meet Leo's requirements before the game, try their best to achieve the same formation and everyone closely follow each other without affecting the ranking, with the conditions of Shangshu, is the only key condition for victory, and the only way to win the group championship.
As for the individual championship, two more factors should be added, the personal factor of nature and nurture, and the most important factor - "luck".
If you're lucky, you'll win everything. Today, luckily for the weather, every rider had a good result, and when we arrived at the entrance of the Penang Bridge, we went straight to the top of the bridge and then sprinted down, and the non-stop rush of 15 kilometers began, which was also the final battle moment for the top three riders.
Rubis was no longer the first in the morning, he was already at the end of the crossbow. And the opponents of the second echelon, including his own teammates, were staring at him from behind, and before rushing to the top of the bridge, Lubis appeared with heavy breathing and panting. Davis heard his unsteady breathing, which meant that Rubis's feet were running low.
Sure enough, Mark. Davis at this moment, also overtook Rubis, followed by von Rubis. Peter chased after him, and soon, Sam, along with Aman and Ababa, also shook off Lubis at the top of the bridge. After crossing the bridge, there was another extremely sharp turn, and Zhang Yuan didn't care about the brakes, and accelerated and accelerated again in an attempt to overtake. He did, and suddenly Huang Futao and Saito Masashi passed, and everyone was staring at Yingmu for a moment...
In the Peaceful Sports Center, a 5-meter by 3-meter LCD screen is open to the public for free to watch live events. Zhang Yuan's parents, younger siblings and He Xiaohua's family were watching, and when Zhang Yuan surpassed the two ace drivers of Hong Kong and Japan in one breath, the whole audience was crazy, screaming, clapping, cheering...
Times Square, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong; The big TV screen in Shinjuku, Tokyo, was also broadcasting the situation live, and there were voices of disappointment in the locality, occasionally mixed with some sporadic cheers, believed to be tourists from China.
What no one estimated happened again, which made Huang Futao's heart unmoving, and he was also shocked, and Saito Masashi's face was even more like ashes... But they are all as strong as iron, even if they lose, they must lose brilliantly. Moreover, the two of them competed from the first day to the fourth day, and the cumulative success continued to be faster than Zhang Yuan, as long as the distance before crossing the line did not exceed 150 meters, Huang Futao was confident that the yellow jersey and the individual championship would be himself; Saito thought the same way, when he won the Huangfu Tao, and did not lose the distance of 100 meters, he was confident to stand at the top of the podium, this is the dignity and perseverance of the emperor.
The distance and time estimated by the three of them, the computer has calculated, and the values are not much different, at this moment, the three of them are friends who cherish each other, and they are opponents who respect each other, but the first one is only one, and the three of them must have a great fight for glory.
Penang Island's waterfront road is filled with crowds of people watching and heading to the north of Penang, where some of the more than 100-year-old British hotels and the sound of the waves of the East Indian Ocean are combined with the beautiful sunset, you will definitely be mesmerized.
But now, everyone is not in the mood to enjoy such a beautiful scenery, and when it comes to the western slope of Penang Island, Zhang Yuan did not open the distance with Huang Fu Tao and Saito, Zhang Yuan is only 7 meters away from Huang Fu Tao and 11 meters from Saito. Driving further to the higher point, Zhang Yuan began to pull away a little, 9 meters and 16 meters. At the top, there is a gap of 11 meters and 19 meters.
Rushing down at a rapid speed, Zhang Yuan wants to win, he wants to knock them down with technology, 120 kilometers per hour, such terrible downhill data, you... You don't want to die, nerd Zhang Yuan?
But Zhang Yuan was full of confidence in his skills and his bike, and ran wildly to open the distance, 42 meters and 60 meters. The people of Tokyo are amazed; The people of Hong Kong are staring at the big curtain with disbelieving eyes. Only the Chinese fully trust Zhang Yuan as the appearance of the championship, and the call is not from thrilling but means that the distance is drawn and the personal championship is in sight.
Arriving in the southern part of Penang and preparing for the final two kilometres of the straight, Teo pulled away to 82 metres and 106 metres to declare that Saito was third (but he still didn't give up). The champion, this pair of good friends is competing again, Zhang Yuan crossed the line, 96 meters away from Huang Futao, and began to enter the final time of Huang Futao, the first four days cumulatively, Zhang Yuan was 6.2 seconds worse than Huang Futao. 96 meters, it is estimated that it can be completed in 5.8 seconds, so they have a time difference of 0.4 seconds, and the Chinese fans on the scene were very disappointed after hearing it, and should be very disappointed.
Hong Kong fans are looking forward to their championship, once again owned by Huang Futao.
The line is rushed, and the chip record shows the time and ranking,
First place, Zhang Yuan of China, 27 hours, 46 minutes and 7.355 seconds
First place, Huang Futao from Hong Kong, China, 27 hours, 46 minutes and 7.358 seconds
According to the rules of the competition, the tolerance for error in this race is 0.05 seconds, so it is the double champion, the second place, Masashi Saito of Japan, 27 hours, 46 minutes 13.689 seconds; 3rd place, Mark of the Netherlands. Davis, 27 hours, 47 minutes, 33.56 seconds.
The champion of the team system, "Jin Chong", which has been led since the first day, won the first place without a trace of suspense, the second is Hong Kong's "Zhenyang", the third is the Dutch team, and the fourth is Japan's "Kawaguchi" team.
Team USA's Jamaica finished 10th with Rubis, but he was still the top speed holder and won the pink jersey. But all of his mentors and instructors were dismissed (immediately after the game), and maybe this is the fate of those who have done their best!
