Chapter 204: Decathlon Begins
Since the opening ceremony on August 8, more than 10 days have passed since the Beijing Olympics.
In such a long time, the Chinese team has won more than 40 medals, of which Yidun contributed two silvers and one bronze, and there is no gold medal in the account for the time being.
However, even if it is only two silvers and one bronze, it is also the hottest news topic at the moment, which is more concerned than most gold medalists.
If you really want to say that the silver and bronze medals of Eden are more gold than other gold medals, it will definitely not be.
A gold medal is a gold medal, and it is by no means comparable to silver and bronze medals.
However, the three gold medals of Yi Dun are relatively special, and they all achieved zero breakthroughs in various men's events.
The breakthrough of three zeros, it can be imagined what a huge surprise Yidun has given to domestic sports fans.
And everyone knows that the most promising gold medal event has not yet begun, and when the decathlon event is over, the number of medals may be rewritten to 1 gold, 2 silver and 1 bronze.
Winning four medals in track and field at one Olympics is quite an achievement.
In more than 200 countries around the world, there are a total of 47 track and field events, a total of 141 medals, one country is not enough, Yi Dun alone won four, you can imagine how amazing it is.
Now everyone pins their hopes for that track and field gold medal on Yi Dun.
Of course, there are still some people waiting to see Yi Dun's jokes, but Yi Dun is too big to talk about and wants to win two gold medals.
At the time of saying this, Eden had three projects left on his hands.
They are the decathlon, the discus throw and the javelin.
Winning the gold medal in the decathlon is no problem even if it is a sunspot, but it is only a gold medal.
The remaining gold medal, if any, can only be won in the discus and javelin events.
Now that the discus throw is over, Yi Dun only won the silver medal, which means that if Yi Dun wants not to slap himself in the face, he must win the championship with the javelin.
For the strength of the Yidun javelin project, the Chinese people are still relatively clear.
Looking at the country, it must be an invincible opponent in China.
But on the Olympic stage, Yi Dun's javelin strength is not so good.
So at the moment, they are not in a hurry to sneer at Yi Dun, and they should wait for the javelin project to end.
……
On August 20th, Eden did not play, and had a good rest for a day, waiting for the arrival of the 21st race.
On the 21st, it should be regarded as the busiest day of the Olympic Games.
A total of six projects are waiting for EDUN to participate.
Javelin Throw Qualifying and five events on the first day of the decathlon.
It is true that there are many more events, but if you take a closer look at these six events, it is actually very small for athletes.
Taken together, the six events are not as much physical energy as running a 5,000-meter run.
It's just that I'm a little tired, and I need to keep an eye on the time.
At 9 o'clock in the morning on the 21st, Yi Dun followed a group of decathlon athletes to start the check-in of the decathlon 100-meter event.
In the three events he participated in before, Yi Dun was all alone, and in this decathlon, Yi Dun finally has teammates.
Veteran Qi Haifeng will join Yi Dun to participate in this decathlon competition.
A total of 40 players participated, and there must be no qualifiers or preliminaries for the decathlon, and it will be the final directly.
The forty players were divided into five groups of eight players.
Yi Dun played in the second group, and Qi Haifeng was in the fourth group.
"You're so young."
"Can you just say that yesterday? Are you not afraid of what happens and you fail to win two gold medals? ”
"When the time comes, you can't refute what people say about you." Qi Haifeng smiled bitterly at Yi Dun before the start of the game.
Although the two have never competed together, when they were preparing for the Olympics, they trained together for more than a month, and their friendship is still good.
"Ahem, Brother Qi, let's talk about this now, let's play well." Yi Dun scratched his head and laughed.
Qi Haifeng waved his hand, "Yes, yes, you really can't mention this, concentrate on the game." ”
"Come on, Eden, I wish you gold and world record breaking in advance."
……
At 9:20, the game officially began.
In the crowd, Eden saw his two strongest rivals, namely Shebler of the Czech Republic and Brian Clay of the United States.
When Shebulle saw Eden, he waved at Eden and nodded, but Clay didn't look at Eden at all.
The first group is on the scene, and Schaburle is among them.
A moment later, the results came out, and to Eden's speechlessness, Schaeble's 100m result was a terrible mess.
The all-around prince only had a time of 11.21 seconds in the 100 meters, ranking fifth in the group.
There were eight of them, and he was in fifth, which was unbelievable.
Although the result of 11.21 seconds is far better than Yi Dun's 100 meters, Yi Dun is special after all, and Shebulle is counting on these speed events to score points.
After the run, Schaeble hung his head, obviously not satisfied with the result.
The consequences of a poor performance in a project are serious, especially if the performance is seriously abnormal like Schembler, which will lead to a significant drop in the rankings.
After Shabblele walked off the runway, he smiled wryly at Yi Dun, who stepped forward and patted the prince on the shoulder, which was regarded as an encouragement.
Next, it was Yi Dun's turn to play, and after the 100-meter run, Yi Dun looked embarrassed.
The strength of his group feels much stronger than the first group, of course, he has to cut off his own lag.
Yi Dun's time this time was 11.47 seconds, which is considered his normal performance.
The seventh-ranked runner in the group has a time of 11.06 seconds, and if it is placed in the first group, it can be ranked second!
Then the third group of results came out, Yi Dun smiled, and the Kazakh runner only ran 11.83 seconds, squeezing out the penultimate position of Yi Dun.
In the fourth group, Qi Haifeng ran a time of 11.15 seconds, running his best time of the year, and he played quite well.
"That's good, Brother Qi, you're in good shape today?" Yi Dun asked with a smile.
"It does feel good, but it's definitely not like you, if I can run into 10 seconds, I guess I can compare to you." Qi Haifeng said with a smile.
Yi Dun was speechless, if the 100-meter run was ten seconds, it would be better to simply participate in the 100-meter event.
After the fifth group competition, Yi Dun rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
There were two people in this group who were worse than themselves, and they were both much worse, both of them were 11.80 seconds away.
At the end of the five group games, Eden temporarily ranked fourth from the bottom with a score of 759 points.
The three players who finished at the bottom were from Kazakhstan, Hungary and Moldova.
Participating in this Olympic Games has an advantage, it can open the eyes of Yi Dun and know more countries, if it is not for this Olympic Games, Yi Dun will not know that there is a country in the world called Moldova.
