Chapter 282: Big Bald Ethel
The 3,000-meter qualifying round of Yi Dun ended in the morning, and at 8 o'clock in the evening, Gong Lijiao won another bronze medal in the women's shot put.
Looking at Gong Lijiao's expression, she was naturally quite unhappy, his performance this time was not good, and he was not able to show his best level.
Gong Lijiao is now also caught in the Clark phenomenon, daily training and domestic competitions, she can throw quite amazing results, but in international competitions, although she can also win medals, but she just can't win gold.
She now wants more gold than anyone else.
Because in addition to the gold medals in the Olympics and the World Championships, she has almost won all the honors she can get.
"Don't be too sad, you're still young, the gold medals in the Olympics and the World Championships will be yours sooner or later, don't worry." Yi Dun could only comfort his little junior sister.
"Brother Dun, why do you say that your performance is so consistent every time you play?"
"It's not that I'm not playing properly because I'm nervous, I just don't know why, and I feel like I'm powerless."
"If it was because of the nervousness, I probably wouldn't be so uncomfortable now." Gong Lijiao said with a long sigh.
Winning a bronze medal is actually a very good result in the history of women's shot put, but Gong Lijiao has high requirements for herself, and her goal is to win a gold medal.
Yi Dun shook his head, he couldn't give an answer to Gong Lijiao's question, if Gong Lijiao was out of action because of nervousness, he could tell Gong Lijiao some big truths......
But now Gong Lijiao doesn't know why she is playing abnormally, so Yi Dun naturally can't give any advice.
……
There was no game on the morning of the third matchday, and Eden stayed in his room, waiting for tonight's game.
Liu Xiang and others came over to chat with Yi Dun from time to time, and they also knew the importance of tonight to Yi Dun.
The hammer throw is easy to say, and Yi Dun won the gold is a sure thing.
Only in the 10,000-meter event, everyone is still quite worried about Yi Dun, after all, Yi Dun's opponent is extremely strong tonight.
Even if you don't consider those East African players, after all, these East African players have no grudge against Yi Dun, even if they lose to them, there is nothing to be ashamed of.
It's mostly the Australians.
At this World Championships, Craig did not register for the 10,000-meter event, but three other Australian athletes qualified.
These three Australian players have different strengths, the most of the best results in history are not as good as Yi Dun, the one with medium strength is probably similar to Yi Dun, and the strongest one has a chance to enter the top five.
In the case of East African athletes almost dominating the long-distance running world, in fact, in this level of competition, to be able to run in the top five is already an extremely amazing strength.
Liu Xiang and others were naturally a little worried about Yi Dun, for fear that Yi Dun would lose to those Australians and be stimulated to collapse.
However, when they entered Yi Dun's room, they didn't feel Yi Dun's nervousness at all, he was holding his mobile phone and grinning, and he didn't know what good things had happened.
……
At five o'clock in the evening, Yi Dun ate a little energy bar and began to walk towards the field with the team leader.
Next, the hammer throw final is about to begin, and the German audience at the scene is also quite familiar with the situation of Eden under the propaganda offensive of Adidas.
Outside the gymnasium, there is a large poster purchased by Adidas, which has a photo of Eden and a sentence.
"Witness the birth of a miracle."
This is a signal that Eden will work a miracle in the hammer throw final in the evening.
What is a miracle, for Yi Dun, it is natural to break the world record to call a miracle.
"The game will start in about fifteen minutes, and Yi Dun and other contestants have already completed the check-in."
"Now we just have to wait and see how Eden performs." The on-site commentator said excitedly.
After the check-in, the twelve players conducted a lottery ceremony, Yi Dun drew the No. 5 lot, and a white player on the side suddenly stretched out a big bald head and came over.
"Yi, I'm the number four sign."
"I wish you success in winning the championship." The big bald contestant said to Yi Dun in half-baked English.
This big bald Yi Dun also knows this player, and he has seen this player in the Beijing Olympics before.
His name is Ethel, and he is a German player.
As the strongest hammer thrower in China at the moment, he is also a signed Adidas, of course, Adidas must give him far less money than Eden.
Yi Dun was annoyed in Australia before because he couldn't understand what people said, and after he went back, he learned English with Xia Jiuli for a while, and then after Tong Yangling came, Tong Yangling was also practicing English hard every day, and Yi Dun also followed it from time to time to learn for a while.
So at the moment, Ethel's words, Yi Dun can naturally hear what they mean.
"Thank you." Yi Dun smiled implicitly at the big bald head.
It is said that the face is born from the heart, although this big bald head looks majestic, but the face is very festive, and it should be a good-hearted person.
As the host, Ethel is much more polite than the Australians, which also makes Eden have a lot of affection for Ethel.
Not all Europeans can speak English fluently, at least Ethel's English is not particularly fluent, and it just so happens that Eden is also very lame.
The two danced and gestured, trying to communicate.
The scene seems a little funny, but no one around the players will laugh at Yi Dun, because on this chain court, it is strength that speaks, and they are qualified to laugh at Yi Dun.
"Doot toot!" The referee blew the whistle.
The player who won the No. 1 draw began to take the stage, and Hungary's Paz stepped into the cage.
The player was seen before the tournament as one of the three players with the best chance of winning silver tonight.
Why is it said that there is a chance to win the silver, the reason must be Yi Dun.
Because of the existence of Yi Dun, who dares to say that he has a chance to win gold? That's definitely going to make people laugh out of their big teeth.
Therefore, the silver medal has become the goal pursued by these players, and they are quite miserable in the same era as Eden.
A moment later, Pass's result was released, with only 78.24 meters, which made Pass's face sigh sadly, and he slowly walked out of the cage.
The next runner is from Slovakia, the country that separates from the Czech Republic.
The player's name is Kozmos, and he also played against Eden during the Beijing Olympics before.
In fact, 10 of the 11 athletes at the scene, except for Yi Dun, participated in the Beijing Olympics.
They were naturally very impressed by Yi Dun, and at that time at the Beijing Olympics, the young Yi Dun was already staggering to their strength.
Unexpectedly, after the Beijing Olympics, Yi Dun's strength was like riding a rocket, and it was far away from these players and became the only existence in the world.
If Eden had just surpassed the world record in China, they might have been left to chance.
However, Yi Dun later participated in the Grand Prix and also threw a world record result, which directly dispelled their luck psychology and made them really realize that the current Yi Dun is no longer the Yi Dun in the Beijing Olympics.
The No. 2 runner was not as good as Paz, with only 77.45m in the account.
Yi Dun couldn't help laughing in his heart, it seems that he doesn't need to throw too good results today, he just needs to break the event record, and he can't make a crazy record.
The reason why Yi Dun has such an idea is because the World Championships are held every two years, which is more suitable for brushing attribute points than the Olympic Games.
And Eden's power is stuck at 99 points, and it is not known when it will break through this mark.
If you make enough effort to break the record this time, it may be that the efficiency of Yidun farming international-level attribute points will have to be halved for many years to come.
Yi Dun naturally can't allow this to happen, so in this World Championships, Yi Dun is not ready to break the world record crazy, he only needs to break the World Championship record is enough, which can ensure that his efficiency of brushing international attribute points is maximized.
As far as Yi Dun knows, the hammer throw record of the World Championships is 84.72 meters, and Yi Dun can be said to be easy to break such a result.
The next No. 3 player came out with a score of just over 75 meters.
Three players appeared in succession, but they failed to throw 80 meters away, and all of them had dismal results.
Now it's the turn of the big bald head Ethel to come out.
"Come on!" Yi Dun patted the back of the big bald head and cheered loudly.
Ethel clenched his fists and stepped into the cage, where he was one of the favourites to win silver.
In addition, he is now the host player, so when he entered the cage, the scene erupted in warm applause.
Moments later, Ethel walked out of the cage with a smile on his face, and he threw 80.23m, becoming the first athlete to break 80m so far.
Yi Dun, who drew the No. 5 lot, smiled at the big bald head and prepared to appear.
"It's coming, it's coming, it's It's Eden, according to my estimate, Eden may be able to firmly establish his championship position with the first shot."
"It's not impossible to even break the world record with the first throw."
"Eden has created so many miracles, he is simply the embodiment of miracles."
In the CCTV studio, the hammer throw final of the Berlin World Championships was being broadcast live, and the two hosts could not suppress the excitement in their hearts when they saw that Yi Dun was about to appear.
The Chinese people are also very excited, and they have been looking forward to it for several days, and they can finally see Yi Dun play in the final.
……
"Ho!"
Yi Dun, who was in the cage, let out a low sigh and threw the chain ball out of his hand.
This investment of Yi Dun can be regarded as a convergence of some strength, and what kind of results can be thrown, even Yi Dun himself is not very clear.
However, Yi Dun is confident that this shot should be able to establish his advantage in winning the championship.
Moments later, the surveyor gave the result of Eden's throw.
83.99 meters!
An extremely strange result, only one centimeter short of 84 meters.
"Oh, it's a pity, Yi Dun's throw is not good."
"But even so, we can fully say that after this throw, Yi Dun already has more than ninety percent hope of winning the championship."
"Because of the other 11 players in the competition, none of them can reach their personal best record of 83.99m, and even the best Russian player Alexei has a personal record of 83.43m, which is quite a big gap compared to Eden's throw."
"Unless Alexei can make a big breakthrough tonight, the gold medal of Eden is basically decided."
The CCTV commentator said with a laugh.
Although this shot seems to them to be Yi Dun's poor performance, even this kind of poor performance of the trial result can almost be said to be 100% of the championship, and they are naturally very happy.
With such a result, today's gold medal must be decided.
"I don't know if Yi Dun has any plans to continue to invest in the future."
"We all know that this shot is not the best performance of Eden, and it is very likely that we will see Eden's second test pitch tonight."
In recent games, Eden has participated in all the games with one shot, and there has been no second attempt at all.
At present, the audience hopes that Yi Dun's opponent can give some strength and strive to force Yi Dun to throw again.
