The rules for the long jump in the twenties and thirties were slightly different from those of later generations.

In the future Olympic Games, athletes participating in the long jump competition will first go through the qualifying round, and the top 12 will advance to the finals. In the first three jumps of the finals, the four people with the worst scores will be eliminated, and the remaining eight people will take the next three jumps to determine the final champion. In other words, in the final, there will be a 3+3 opportunity to try jump.

At the 1928 Olympic Games in Amsterdam, more than 40 athletes competed, and the rules at that time were that the top six in the qualifying round made three jumps, and the top six advanced directly to the final, while the others were eliminated. Each of the six finalists will have six attempts, with the highest score being the winner.

At the 1932 Los Angeles Olympics, there were only 12 athletes competing in the long jump, so there was no qualifying tournament, and it was the final. After the first three attempts, the four people with the best results can complete the next three attempts to compete for the final championship, while the others are eliminated.

By the time of the 1936 Berlin Olympics, the rules for qualification had changed. The top 16 in the qualifying round advance to the finals, which are also 3+3 test jump rules, and the six best performers in the first three jumps will take the next three jumps to compete for the final championship. This rule is similar to that of the future Olympics, except that the number of qualifiers and eliminations is different.

……

The long jump competition is about to begin.

On the sidelines of the field, Japan's Tadahei Minami was warming up before the match, and next to him was another Japanese athlete, Naoto Tajima.

At the 1936 Berlin Olympics, Naoto Tajima also won the bronze medal in the long jump and the gold medal in the triple jump, and broke the world record at the time with a score of 16 meters, perfectly replicating the performance of Tadahei Nanbu at the Los Angeles Olympics.

At this time, Naoto Tajima is not the future master of the long jump, he is just the younger brother of Nanbu Tadahei, and he participated in the Olympics for the first time, and he is also like a fart, wandering around Nanbu Tadahei.

The 200-meter semi-rematch had just ended, and Nanfang Zhongping witnessed Chen Qiang breaking another world record, and his expression instantly became solemn.

"Southern senior, your face doesn't seem to be very good, did you not rest yesterday?" Naoto Tajima asked with a concerned expression.

Nanfang Zhongping shook his head: "I'm worried about Chen Qiang, he just broke the world record in the 200 meters, and it seems that he is in very good shape." ”

"The seniors in the south are too worried, although the excellent sprinters will have excellent long jump ability, but Chen Qiang has never participated in the long jump competition, you don't have to care about him." Naoto Tajima paused, then said, "What's more, you are the world record holder in the long jump, and you also have the world's most advanced up-to-body long jump technique!" Even if Chen Qiang is physically talented, the gap in technology cannot be bridged. ”

While the two were talking, the referee had signaled the athletes to be ready to play.

Chen Qiang, as the new Olympic champion and world record holder in the 100-meter sprint, has just broken the 200-meter world record, and when he appeared in the long jump, he naturally attracted much attention. Several strong long jumpers cast vigilant glances at Chen Qiang, and they all knew that the strength of the long jump would not be too bad for those who were good at the 100-meter sprint.

After a short period of preparation, the final of the long jump event officially began.

Since there is no qualifier, the order of the players is not ranked according to the results, but according to the draw, Chen Qiang drew a No. 9 lot, which means that he will appear in the ninth.

Each of the 12 contestants will have three attempts, and the top four will have the opportunity to try the next three jumps.

The first to take the stage was Argentine Paulo, who also competed in the 100-meter dash but was eliminated in the first round, and in addition to the 100-meter dash and long jump, he also signed up for the men's decathlon.

Paul only managed to jump 6.13m on his first attempt, which was not an impressive result.

According to the pre-race prediction, if you want to advance to the top four, you must jump out of a score of 7.4 meters, and a score of less than 7 meters is completely uncompetitive.

The next two competitors failed to try to jump, and the other only jumped 5.75 meters.

The fourth to appear was American Dick Barber, who immediately drew applause from the audience.

Dick Barber walked up to the run-up area, saw him make a quick run, then stepped on the springboard, then took off into the air, and after a two-and-a-half-step walk, his feet were together, he cut an arc in the air, and then fell into the sand pool.

The traces in the sand pit were seven meters away, and the surveyor immediately rushed over to measure it with a ruler, and then gave a score of 7.11 meters.

"The first person to jump 7 meters appeared!"

There was thunderous applause, cheers and whistles, and the American audience was clearly pleased with the result.

In this era, if you can jump more than 7 meters, you are already a world-class athlete. At the last Olympics in Amsterdam, only 14 of the more than 40 participants were able to jump more than 7 meters.

Dick Barber walked off the field, waving at the crowd with an unhappy look on his face, clearly not happy with his result, and he felt that he could have jumped a little further.

Chen Qiang's face showed a relieved smile.

"Sure enough, I'm not mistaken, it seems that my killer weapon will definitely play a great role!"

Dirk Barber was followed by a Mexican player, followed by Sweden's Eric Svensson.

Eric Svensson competed in the long jump at the 1928 Olympics, where he finished eighth. Historically, he finished fourth in the long jump and silver in the triple jump at the Los Angeles Olympics.

Eric Svensson also used a walking stride in the air, and he made a perfect two-and-a-half-step walk in the air, and then jumped 7.27 meters on the first jump to climb straight to first place.

The next player in the field is Japan's Tadahei Minami.

"That Japanese is the world record holder Tadahei Minami! Last year, he broke the world record in the long jump with a throw of 7.98 meters. ”

"I've heard that he's created a new type of jumping technique called Stand Up Lift, and he's going to use it today!"

The world record holder, coupled with the new take-off technology, has put Nambu Tadahei in the spotlight, and athletes and coaches, as well as journalists and spectators, want to see for themselves what it is like to stand up and take off.

The upright air was first used by Nanbu Tadahei at the 1931 Japanese domestic games, but because the information dissemination method at that time was mainly text, it was impossible to present a set of technical movements clearly by words, and athletes from other countries knew at most that there was a new air technology, but they had never seen what it looked like.

Nanbu Chunghei broke the world record in the long jump by relying on the upright lift, so in the eyes of many people, since the stand-up flight can break the world record, it must be the most advanced take-off technology at that time. Athletes and coaches pay so much attention to Nanbu Zhongping, in fact, they also have the idea of stealing teachers, hoping to learn from him to stand up and take off.

Seeing Nanfang Zhongping walk up to the running area, he took a deep breath, adjusted his breathing, and then began to accelerate.

Stepping on the springboard, Nanbu Zhongping made a fierce force, and his whole body rose into the air.

What he used was indeed a standing up position!

"Is this the legendary upright lift!"

"It's so high in the air!"

"It's a more upright position in the air, and then use the contraction of the lower back muscles to give your feet a better landing position!"

"It's a genius idea, this set of technology is really the most advanced technology in the sky."

Everyone had different thoughts, and Nanbu Tadahei fell into the sand pool in a shocked look.

The surveyor quickly gave Minami Tadahei a score of 7.45 meters, and Nanbu Chunhei overtook Eric Svensson's 7.27 meters in one fell swoop to take first place.

"7.45 meters, it's amazing, the advantage of standing up in the air is so big, it's so far away!"

The score of 7.45 meters is already very top, and after hearing this result, exclamations arose, and everyone took it for granted that this was the crushing of the old technology by the new technology.

Nanbu Zhongping shook his head, he was not satisfied with this result. You must know that Nanbu Zhongping is the world record, and 7.45 meters is more than half a meter away from the world record of 7.98 meters he holds!

A long jumper who jumps half a metre less than his best will of course be dissatisfied.

Seeing the world's most advanced long jump in person has left other athletes excited, and a few have already begun to discuss the technical features of the upright lift.

However, Chen Qiang seemed very calm, he himself knew the upright take-off technique, so he was not surprised by the up-standing take-off performed by Nanfang Zhongping.

Chen Qiang couldn't help but comment on Nanfang Zhongping's upright aerial technology: "Southern Zhongping's upright aerial technology is not much different from the upright aerial technology of later generations, but the details still need to be strengthened. ”

However, Lambert Reed of the United States, perhaps it was Nanbu Tadahei's 7.45m that put too much pressure on him, and Lambert Reed's first attempt ended in a straight error.

The subsequent players did not perform too amazingly until the eighth Japanese player Naoto Tajima.

Run-ups, take-offs, and take-offs, Naoto Tajima also uses the technique of standing up and taking off, apparently learned from Southern Tadahei.

"It's a stand-up again!"

"Are all Japanese athletes already mastering this technique?"

Naoto Tajima also used the technique of standing up in the air, which immediately attracted a lot of discussion around him, and Naoto Tajima also jumped a 7.02 meter score by virtue of standing up in the air.

Naoto Tajima is also very satisfied with this result, after all, this is his first time competing in the Olympic Games, no fouls, and he successfully completed the competition, and jumped a score of more than 7 meters, which is already a very good performance. And he has at least two more attempts to jump, and he can try to get a better result.

Next, it was Chen Qiang's turn to appear.

After watching the competition of eight world-class athletes, Chen Qiang already has some understanding of the long jump sport in this era.

"The current long jump should be in the early stage of the development of power-based technology." Chen Qiang secretly judged in his heart.

The long jump is one of the competitive events in the ancient Greek Olympic movement, the ancient Greek long jump, the athlete will hold a dumbbell in each hand, and the dumbbell will swing forward as much as possible when jumping, so as to produce a driving force that drives the body to jump ahead, and the dumbbell will swing backward when landing, so that the distance of the long jump is stretched forward as much as possible. So in those days, the long jump was not only a leg exercise, but also a test of the athlete's arm strength.

In the modern long jump, the technical development has roughly gone through three stages. The first stage is the primitive stage, which is mainly to find the most suitable aerial movement after the take-off as the development direction, and finally determines the three types of long jump postures: squatting, walking and upright.

The second stage is the development stage of strength technology, which attaches great importance to the exertion of strength during the jump, that is, the force will be very strong when taking off, and the height of the jump will be very high. This technology can obtain good vertical speed, but it will affect the play of horizontal speed, so it has been eliminated in the future.

Since the 70s, the sport of long jump has entered the third stage of development, that is, the development stage of speed technology. Athletes began to pay more and more attention to the speed of running, at this time athletes pursued the smoothness of running and jumping, and the three key links of the long jump became high-speed running, full-speed boarding, and fast leg swing jump.

At the 1932 Olympics, the upright air was just emerging, so the long jump was in the process of moving from primitive to power-based techniques.

As a later generation, Chen Qiang naturally would not train the doomed long jump technique of strength technology, he trained according to the standards of later generations at the beginning, and directly trained the most advanced speed technology.

After three days of competition, Chen Qiang can be regarded as a star on this field, and the first thing the American audience sees when they see a Chinese athlete is "Chen Qiang".

What's more, Chen Qiang has just broken the 200-meter world record, giving three American athletes a perfect response.

"Look, it's that Chinese!"

"Yes, it's him, it seems to be called Chen Qiang, right?"

"He won the 100-meter dash yesterday and broke the world record in the 100-meter dash; Just now he broke the world record in the 200m, and now he is going to compete in the long jump! ”

"Isn't that Chinese a sprinter? How to participate in the long jump competition, is he also proficient in the long jump? ”

"I've heard that people who run fast are strong in the long jump!"

The audience's eyes focused on Chen Qiang, and Chen Qiang deliberately took a few steps back, and then started to start.

The reason for taking a few steps back is to extend the distance of the run-up. The speed technique of the long jump requires a faster running speed, and naturally it also needs a longer running distance.

"Chen Qiang's running speed is so fast!"

The other athletes were shocked.

However, what really surprised them was still behind, only to see Chen Qiang step on the springboard, and then use his strength to take off, his body made a standing movement in the air.

"Stand up and take off!" Someone couldn't help but exclaim.

Naoto Tajima's eyes widened in surprise, he couldn't believe what he was seeing.

Chen Qiang even used the technique of standing up and taking off!

Naoto Tajima even felt that Chen Qiang's upright aerial movements, technical movements were more standard than his own, and more fluid than his own!

Chen Qiang's upright take-off, of course, is more standard than Naoto Tajima, and his movements are smoother. After all, what Chen Qiang practiced was the 21st century upright aerial technique, and in many details, it was much improved from the original upright aerial technique, and it was much more advanced than Tajima Naoto's technique.

"What's going on, how could Chen Qiang also stand up and take off? Isn't this the unique skill of the southern predecessors? Could it be that the southern predecessors taught Chen Qiang? Naoto Tajima subconsciously looked at the southern Tadahei next to him.

However, the shocked expression of Southern Tadahei is three points more than that of Naoto Tajima!

"Stand up and take off! How did Chen Qiang learn my upright take-off! I only taught this set of techniques to a few players in the Japanese team, except for our Japanese athletes, it is impossible for players from other countries to understand this set of techniques, but how did Chen Qiang learn it? ”

"Did you just watch me try to jump, and then learned? No way! How can this technique of taking off be mastered without thousands of exercises? Chen Qiang's upright aerial movement, the technical movements are clear, and he is already very proficient, and it looks like he has been practicing for several years! ”

"Been practicing for years? This is even more impossible, I only used the technique of standing up for the first time last year, even the other players of the Japanese team, they have only practiced the standing up flight for a few months, how can Chen Qiang practice for several years! ”

At this time, Nanfang Zhongping was puzzled, he didn't know where Chen Qiang learned the upright aerial technique, and he didn't know how Chen Qiang's upright aerial use could be so proficient!

……

In the main stands, Kishi Kishi rubbed his eyes and made sure that it was Chen Qiang who had just tried to jump, not a certain Japanese athlete.

"I'm not mistaken, it's indeed a standing upright, how can Chen Qiang know how to use a standing upright! This is obviously a unique skill for us Japanese athletes! ”

The long jump and triple jump are Japan's strongest track and field events, and four years ago, Japan's Mikio Oda won gold in the triple jump at the Amsterdam Olympics, becoming the first Asian athlete to win gold in an individual event. Since then, the focus of Japanese athletics has been on the long jump and triple jump, and a large number of outstanding long jumpers have emerged in Japan, and some new long jump techniques have been developed by Japanese athletes.

For the Japanese track and field team, the technique of standing up and taking off is obviously the core of the core, and it is also a killer feature of the Japanese team.

In the eyes of the Japanese team, the leakage of the upright take-off technology is equivalent to the leakage of the most core technology of Japan's long jump.

In the past, Japanese athletes have only used the upright technique in domestic competitions, but this is the first time that Japanese athletes have shown their upright aerial skills to the world. According to Kishi Kishi's assumption, foreign athletes will not be able to really study the upright flight until at least the next Olympic Games, which means that the Japanese team's long jump technology will be four years ahead of the world!

However, Chen Qiang also used the technique of standing up and taking off, which suddenly made Kishi Qingyi feel a kind of horror permeating his heart, as if a sea angler had entered an unknown sea, full of confusion about the present and worries about the future.

"How did Chen Qiang master the upright aerial technique? It's been less than a year since the upright move appeared, and even if you start practicing it from scratch, it will take some time! Could it be that something is wrong within us? ”

Kishi suddenly remembered that a few months ago, the Manchurian Association sent athletes to participate in the Olympics, and the Chinese media learned in advance and announced it.

For that incident, Kishi Seiichi once conducted an internal investigation to find out the traitor, but in the end it was in vain, the traitor was not caught, and it also caused panic within the Japan Athletics Association, and finally the matter was settled.

Something similar happened again today, which made Kishi Kishi even more sure that there was a traitor within Japan who leaked the technology of standing up and taking off to Chen Qiang!

"Damn, I must strictly investigate after I go back, who betrayed the empire! This time, if I don't find out the traitor, I will definitely not give up! ”

……

Chen Qiang didn't know that the upright aerial movement he used caused great trouble to the Japanese team.

At this time, he had already landed, then stood up from the sand pool, turned his head and glanced at the length of the ruler engraved next to the sand pool, the end of the trace left by Chen Qiang in the sand pool was still 7.5 meters away.

"It's more than 7.5 meters!" Chen Qiang was overjoyed.

The previous score of Nanfang Zhongping was 7.45 meters, which is also the best result in the current long jump event, and Chen Qiang's performance in this attempt has surpassed Nanfang Zhongping.

The surveyor ran forward and measured carefully, and then the referee also announced Chen Qiang's results:

"7.52 meters!"

An exclamation rang out from all around, and everyone realized that this was the best result in the long jump so far!

"Is it really that powerful to stand up in the air? At present, the three athletes who use the upright take-off have all jumped the 7-meter mark, and the first two are athletes who use the stand-up take-off technique! ”

"The upright flight is really the most advanced long jump technique, and the advantages are really obvious."

At this time, a different voice sounded and asked a very slap in the face.

"I remember that the upright air was invented by the Japanese, right? Why do the Chinese use it, but jump farther than the Japanese? ”
