“…… Audience friends, it's 2 o'clock in the morning Beijing time, welcome to watch tonight's IAAF Golden League Rome game, I am the live commentator Yang Jian......"

At two o'clock in the morning Beijing time, it was already Saturday, July 15 in China.

When the live broadcast signal in Rome cut into the CCTV 5 channel, the staff in the entire CCTV 5 channel went up and down to exclaim.

"It's more than last year's World Championships!"

"It's almost time for the Olympics!"

Although a large number of advertisements had already begun a few days in advance, it still caused quite a stir when the real-time ratings came out.

No one expected that the ratings of a Golden League would be beyond imagination, this is not the previous World Championships or the Olympic Games, but a Golden League.

I didn't expect that there would be many more viewers staying up late tonight to watch this game in front of the TV, than they expected.

At the time of the first Oslo Golden League, CCTV bought a broadcast video, and then added its own commentator to explain the game, but it was the broadcast video, and the ratings at that time also reached a terrifying number.

The impact of the duo between Suzu and Powell is too sensational.

Later, the station realized that if it was a live game, I am afraid the effect would be more ideal.

When I arrived at the Paris Golden League, the CCTV staff had just arrived at the scene at that time, and there had been no live broadcast, but it was already boiling in China.

After Liu Yangyu broke the world record in the Lausanne Super Grand Prix, the scene was even more frenzied, and it was unimaginable that the Chinese had won the peak world record in two or three months in a row in the sprint sprint.

Moreover, such a craze has not retreated in the slightest.

On July 14, in the Rome Golden League, Suzu and Powell still staged a wonderful duel, and even the next three Golden League games will have a more thrilling game than one another.

The 100-meter trapeze battle, who is the first flyer, who can win the world record and the Golden League award, everything has been analyzed by the media on TV, the Internet, newspapers and other channels.

Since the Rome Golden League, CCTV has negotiated with the IAAF and the event organizers on the fees and other related matters for the subsequent competitions.

But after all, at this time, there are still very few commercial games in China, and there are many gimmicks, and the staff in charge of this broadcast game is still a little frightened. CCTV is a big business, but the internal mountains are full of complexities, and the person in charge and the executive team who take the lead in broadcasting the Golden League will still face a lot of pressure.

Su Zu's popularity is enough, and even Powell's popularity in China is very high. This popularity is as good as that of Liu Yangyu's opponents Alan Johnson, Trammell, Robles and others. The strongest opponent of his own country's players, no one will ignore it.

But after all, this is the Golden League, such a commercial track and field event, which is very niche in China, and there are few people who really know it.

No one dares to guarantee the ratings, after all, the time is a night game in Rome, and it is early in the middle of the night in China. During this time period, I'm really afraid that few people will watch it when it is broadcast.

And now looking at the ratings that have been rising since zero o'clock, the studio suddenly burst into applause one after another.

At this time, many viewers in China who stayed up late to watch the game in front of the TV have prepared a lot of snacks and the like in advance to stay up late to watch the game.

Some Fridays are really hard to stay up after a day of work, so they can only go to bed after dinner, set the alarm clock early, wake up in a daze at one or two o'clock in the morning, and make themselves a cup of strong tea.

The enthusiasm for supporting players from their own country is sometimes incomprehensible to many people! Pride, honor, eyebrows, probably all of them.

At the barbecue stalls on the street in the summer, young people appeared in groups in twos and threes, drinking beer and skewers, and from time to time a few voices, "We're really awesome, a world record in May, and another one in July." ”

"Alas, wasn't Su Zu's world record equaled by Powell?"

"It's a world record."

"It is estimated that the next 100-meter record will have to be broken, it depends on Su Zu, kill that Jamaican."

"Come, let's go!"

Such scenes are by no means uncommon in the streets and alleys of the country, where young people brag and fart, and their loud voices are particularly loud, and they are even more excited when they talk about the competition.

The owners of barbecue stalls and bars are even more crooked with a smile, this World Cup has just passed less than a week, hey, what kind of golden league in athletics again.

Moreover, this time is also a time when domestic track and field enthusiasts rarely praise CCTV, like Su Zu and Liu Yangyu's previous Golden League, Grand Prix, etc., there are no complete competitions. Even if there are some game videos on the Internet, there are not many people who can really find and see them in 06.

In the early hours of the morning in China, when many places are bustling with activity, at this time, thousands of miles away in Rome, Italy, the noise is even more intense.

The Olympic Stadium in Rome, in the middle of the stadium, is green. The stadium is mainly used for football, is home to Serie A football clubs Lazio and Roma, and is also an asset of the Italian National Olympic Committee. The World Cup, the Champions League, and many more have been staged in this stadium.

When Su Zu crossed the corridor and appeared on the track of the arena, he looked up and glanced at the stands, and found that there were not many spectators who came to watch the game, and many seats were a little sparse.

However, Su Zu also knew that this was also an illusion. There are more than 80,000 spectators at the Olympic Stadium in Rome, and more than 40,000 people have come to watch the game today, which is already a super high attendance rate for the IAAF Golden League.

When Suzu and Asafa Powell appeared at the starting line of the 100-meter track, the spectators who came to watch the race were also boiling.

Although there are many visitors from Italy in the region, there are many visitors from Europe and even Asia and the Americas.

The World Flyer Wars, especially the games that are about to break the world record by the media craze, are enough gimmicks, and there are many highlights of the Golden League itself.

Su Zu's heart is hot now, after witnessing Liu Yangyu breaking the world record a few days ago, the feeling of honor is really too strong.

Attention at home and abroad is now beginning to focus on the next few Golden League matches.

Since I started, since we started, it is almost unimaginable that Chinese sprinters can achieve such results on the world stage.

It's like a dream.

World record, world record, Su Zu also had such a strong thought in his mind.

“…… The athletes who participated in the men's 100m at the IAAF Golden League Rome have already taken part. ”

At this time, before the TV broadcast of CCTV 5, Yang Jian, who had just flown to Italy from China, began to explain the live game.

"The first is American veteran Marcus Brenson, who was ranked fourth in the world in the men's 100m in 2001 and holds the NCAA men's 60m world record of 6.4......6 seconds."

The audience in front of the TV began to know the nine contestants of this competition one by one with Yang Jian's voice and the live camera footage.

The first is American Marcus Brunson;

The second is Jamaican Michael Flatt, who returned to Europe to start the IAAF World Tour after competing in the Jamaican National Championships;

The third lane is France's Ronald Bonon;

the fourth is Jamaica's Asafa Powell;

The fifth is Suzu;

The sixth lane is Leonard Scott;

The seventh lane is Orusoki-Fasuba, Nigeria;

The eighth lane is Francis Obikviru;

In the ninth lane, Simon Cleo of Italy, according to the rules of the IAAF, generally as the organizer of the event, can arrange for 1-2 athletes from his country to participate in the competition.

For example, the domestic Grand Prix and the Japanese Grand Prix, etc., as the organizer, all have such recommended athletes. The ninth lane, Italian player Simon Cleo, was arranged as the organizer to participate in the Rome Golden League.

However, in this game, the other players were basically reduced to supporting roles. Even with Simon Clio, who has home advantage, the Italian audience just wants him to run as well as possible.

Now all eyes are on Suzu and Asafa Powell throughout the Olympic Stadium in Rome.

In the third match of the pinnacle showdown, who will win, and who will break the world record?
