Chapter 57: Semi-final Promotion (Ask for Recommendation Votes)
On the track, Zhu Baozhang had already noticed that Chen Qiang was only wearing an ordinary pair of sneakers.
"This classmate, you forgot to change your shoes." Zhu Baozhang kindly reminded that he estimated that Chen Qiang was a student of a certain high school, so he called Chen Qiang a "classmate".
"That's right, this is it." Chen Qiang smiled and continued: "I don't have nail running shoes, so I can't afford them." ”
A hint of surprise flashed in Zhu Baozhang's eyes, in his impression, the Shanghai team should be full of rich boys, such as the second generation of officials and the second generation of rich people, how can this kind of person not be able to afford nail running shoes!
Zhu Baozhang didn't say anything more, anyway, everyone just met in Pingshui, and a reminder is that benevolence and righteousness have been exhausted. What's more, this is a group of death competition, Zhang Shiguang and Zeng Rongzhong are extremely powerful athletes, and if Zhu Baozhang doesn't do his best, he may not be able to advance to the level.
So Zhu Baozhang didn't pay attention to this young man who was only wearing ordinary sneakers, he wanted to devote all his attention to the game.
The same is true for Zhang Shiguang and Zeng Rongzhong, they are in a group with Zhu Baozhang, which is also a lot of pressure!
After all, Zhu Baozhang won three championships in the last National Games, the undisputed king of sprinting, and now that he is making a comeback, he must be much stronger than six years ago, Zhang Shiguang and Zeng Rongzhong dare not take it lightly.
In the eyes of these three people, this is a three-in-two knockout match, and one of the three of them will inevitably leave the court, and they will all have to do their best to make it to the final.
As for Chen Qiang, a player he doesn't know, he doesn't have to care at all.
Similarly, no one in the surrounding audience paid attention to Chen Qiang, and everyone's eyes were focused on the three well-known players Zhu Baozhang, Zhang Shiguang and Zeng Rongzhong. As for the other three, they all came to make soy sauce to make up the numbers.
That's what it's like to play with big players, everyone is focused on the big players, and their light is going to overshadow everyone else.
For example, in 2010, if there was Usain Bolt in a race, then people's eyes would have been on Usain Bolt, and it didn't matter how the others ran!
……
The six competitors were ready to start. A gunshot rang out, and the six of them rushed out of the starting line in unison.
Zhu Baozhang and the other three have a very fast starting reaction, first, they are the best athletes in China, and they usually receive formal training, and their reaction speed is definitely much stronger than others;
The second reason is also because this game is also very important to them, under the cruel competition of three to two, they need to maintain 100% concentration, and when people are more focused, the reaction is naturally very fast.
But they still can't compare to Chen Qiang. Chen Qiang is faster than them in terms of starting reaction time and acceleration after starting.
This kind of gap was not obvious when they first started, but when they ran about twenty meters, when Chen Qiang stood up, a close position gap suddenly appeared.
This scene is not new to Cheng Jinguan, he has watched Chen Qiang run several races, each of which is like this, Chen Qiang will lower his head and slow down forward after starting, and when he stands up, he has already led the opponent by at least one position.
Today's opponent is relatively strong, and Chen Qiang's lead is already small.
However, other people don't know Chen Qiang as well as Cheng Jinguan, at most they have watched Chen Qiang's game yesterday, and some people haven't even watched yesterday's game.
These people came to see Zhu Baozhang, Zhang Shiguang, and Zeng Rongzhong, they watched the competition of well-known players, and wanted to see the competition between big names, but they didn't expect a cat and a dog to come out of nowhere and take the lead.
The audience seemed to be unable to accept all this, and the shouts and cheers became more and more boiling.
In fact, since the moment the starting gun sounded, the audience has been boiling, because Zeng Rongzhong, a runner in this group, is a native of Hangzhou.
Nine times out of ten, the citizens of Hangzhou in the audience did not know Zeng Rongzhong, but even if Zeng Rongzhong was a Hangzhou person, then the citizens of Hangzhou naturally wanted to cheer for him.
It's just that now the host player is lagging behind.
……
The surrounding local accents came into Zeng Rongzhong's ears, and the cheering sound of the Hangzhou dialect made Zeng Rongzhong feel extremely familiar.
In front of his hometown fathers, Zeng Rongzhong doesn't want to lose, at least he can't fall on the road to the rematch, he must get one of the places that advance to the finals.
Zeng Rongzhong knew that he was assigned to the group of death, Zhu Baozhang was the king of sprinting in the last session, and Zhang Shiguang was also regarded as a first-class sprinter in the north in the Guannai, and he was in the same group as these two, Zeng Rongzhong guessed that he might fall behind in the game.
But Zeng Rongzhong never thought that he would fall behind to an unknown contestant!
It is reasonable to fall behind Zhu Baozhang or Zhang Shiguang, but to fall behind an unknown player, Zeng Rongzhong is absolutely unwilling to accept this reality.
"How can I lose to an unknown man, no, I have to catch up quickly, I want to overtake him! You must not lose face in front of your hometown fathers. ”
Thinking of his hometown father, Zeng Rongzhong only felt that he was full of strength from top to bottom.
"Rush! Rush! Rush! Zeng Rongzhong only had this one idea in his mind, and then this idea supported him to run the whole race, until he crossed the finish line, only to find that he had been rushing for most of the day, but he was still behind Chen Qiang.
……
"That Shanghainese started so fast!"
"That Shanghainese is speeding up so fast!"
"Why is that Shanghainese so far ahead of me!"
Zhang Shiguang was a little confused.
As Professor John Ma, Zhang Shiguang's starting skills are among the best in China, at least in this era. After all, Professor Ma has studied at Springfield College twice in the United States, and what he learned from the Americans is already the most advanced starting technique today.
Therefore, Zhang Shiguang has always been very confident in his start, even when he was racing with foreigners in Beiping, Zhang Shiguang's start never fell off the chain.
But today, Zhang Shiguang suddenly discovered that someone started faster than himself, and it was more than a little faster!
He was more than half a position behind at the start, Zhang Shiguang had never encountered such a thing, even foreign athletes could not do this.
"Where did this Shanghainese come from, how can he be faster than those foreigners!"
……
Zhu Baozhang looked at Chen Qiang, and the shocked expression on his face flashed.
"He's just wearing a pair of regular sneakers, right? Ordinary sneakers suffer a lot in the process of acceleration, but he still ran ahead of me, and I had never seen such a fast start. ”
"No, not only the start, but his acceleration is also very fast, and his speed seems to be on par with Liu Changchun just now! How is it possible, this classmate can run as fast as Liu Changchun! ”
"How he trains, I was a national champion in high school, but it's a lot worse than he is now. It's only been six years, hasn't it? Are all high school students so good now? Can you easily beat an adult athlete like us? ”
Until now, Zhu Baozhang still thinks that Chen Qiang is a high school student, if he knew that Chen Qiang was just a coachman, he didn't know what kind of expression he would have.
……
Chen Qiang was actually a little nervous, after all, this was a group of death.
Chen Qiang didn't know the strength of Zhu Baozhang, Zhang Shiguang and Zeng Rongzhong, and he could only judge the strength of his opponent by guessing, after all, information dissemination was not so developed in this era.
Six years ago, when Zhu Baozhang was only 18 years old, he ran a time of 12 seconds, and Chen Qiang reasoned that he must be much faster now than he was six years ago.
Zhang Shiguang is the fastest athlete in Beiping, even if he competes with foreigners, he will not fall behind, which shows that Zhang Shiguang's speed must be very fast.
Zeng Rongzhong is known as "the first in Jiangnan", and there is no vanity under the so-called fame, if he is not fast enough, he can't afford this "first in Jiangnan".
Therefore, Chen Qiang feels that he should still show some real skills, otherwise, he may really capsize in the rematch
At the start, Chen Qiang ran very seriously, and when he accelerated later, Chen Qiang also ran very seriously.
The pedaling technique on the way is the most practical set of sprinting techniques on the coal ash runway, and its role is much greater than that on the plastic runway.
"The lead is already so big? Am I pushing too hard? These three people are not as powerful as I thought they were. Chen Qiang suddenly found that he had made a mistake in judgment, and these three people were not as strong as he imagined.
"Just now Liu Changchun ran 11.4 seconds with an injury, and I think the level of other athletes should be similar to that of the injured Liu Changchun. I didn't expect that even if other athletes were not injured, they couldn't compare to an injured Liu Changchun, because I was too worried, and I knew that if this was the case, I shouldn't have run so hard in front. ”
Thinking of this, Chen Qiang began to relax his pace and no longer exert his strength as before. After all, this is only a semi-final, and the strength should be reserved for the next finals.
What Chen Qiang didn't know was that in this National Games in history, the fastest time in the 100 meters was not in the final, but in the semifinals, which was Liu Changchun's 11.4 seconds. In the finals, Liu Changchun didn't need to run faster at all to successfully win the championship.
Because the opponent is too weak, and because Liu Changchun is too strong!
……
On the rostrum, the dean of examinations looked at the scene in front of him, and the original little pleasure between his eyebrows disappeared without a trace.
That "ordinary sneaker" actually ran the first place, and he qualified!
Yesterday afternoon, the dean of the examination sprayed "ordinary sneakers" in front of a group of officials, and since then, every good result of the "ordinary sneakers" is a slap in the face of the dean of the exam, and the better the results achieved, the more painful the dean's face is beaten.
The dean also knew that these subordinate officials might not dare to discuss this matter publicly, but it must be an indispensable thing to treat it as a joke after tea and dinner in private.
It is normal for an official to be gossiped by his subordinates, the more official he is, the easier it is to be gossiped by more people, and many times even without wind and waves, somehow he was shot inexplicably, the one in the presidential palace in Nanjing, isn't it the one who gossips the most in private!
Thinking of being gossiped about by countless subordinates, the dean of the examination was not angry. He can't hear it, but he can guess!
The point is that guessing is worse than not hearing.
"What else are you talking about the group of death! What a king of sprints! What is the fastest in Peking! What Gangnam first! Hmph, not all of them have lost! ”
The dean was depressed, but he couldn't find trouble with Chen Qiang, and at this time he couldn't help but think of the director Lu who came to his side just now.
The dean glared at Director Lu out of the corner of his eye, and snorted in his nose.
"Lu Youqi, is it? Okay, I remember you! ”
Not far away, Director Lu felt the majesty of the dean of the examination, and he shrank his neck in fright.
"Oops, my fart seems to have been slapped on the horse's leg!"
