"Did you come out?"

"It's still early, this is the first semi-final group."

Jiang Haoping looked at Lin Bang who was still roaring in a hurry, and shook his head, the young man just couldn't bear it.

"Hey, Brother Jiang, do you think that this time Su Zu and Chen Jian can enter the finals, directly defeat this group of black people, and give us a championship back."

Lin Bang held a camera and looked at the athletes who had just been led to the starting line by the guide from a distance, with light in his little eyes.

"What do you want?!" Jiang Haoping was amused, "This is the Olympic Games, and it is already a history for the two of them to go to the semifinals, a big leap forward in domestic men's sprinting." ”

As he spoke, Jiang Haoping touched his chin again, "Chen Jian is a little hanging, and his 100-meter strength is still a little worse." However, Su Zu's words, based on his personal best and his results in the morning preliminaries, may have a chance to enter the finals. Well, now the goal is the semi-finals, and the group only needs to run to third to get in.

I just took a look at the group members of the Suzu semi-finals, and the strongest one is Sean Crawford of the United States, who has broken 10 seconds and 20 seconds in the 100 meters and 200 meters in 02, and the other is Thompson of Barbados, I have read the data, in 96 years, when the wind was 5.0 meters / second, he ran an amazing time of 9.69 seconds. Moreover, Thompson is also the third place in the 100 meters at the Sydney Olympics and the fourth place in the 200 meters. Alas, I said, Lin Bang, aren't you starting to do your homework, and you still have to ask me about this? ”

"Yes, yes, but the face is very blind, looking at them all look the same, and the names are long, I can't remember a lot, well, I recognized two in this group."

Lin Bang pouted and pointed to the athletes in front of the starting area of the restart at this time, the first group of athletes on the track were taking off their coats to warm up.

"I read the information on the fourth course, it's called Francis Obikviru, originally Nigerian, and later changed his nationality to join Portugal, well, seventh place in the track and field indoor competition this year, hehe, Suzu won him. In addition, the British next to him is Mark Lewis, who is a bit of a face, and it should be their national relay team. Others, hey......"

"It's okay, there's a bit of effort." Jiang Haoping nodded, the young man he brought with him was not interested in track and field and sprinting from the beginning, and now he has begun to cherish sprinters from all over the world, which is a good phenomenon. And the emergence of this kind of good imagination was brought by the teenager who was waiting for the second group of rematches. In the two or three years since he stepped into the athletics world, he has become the leader of the Chinese men's sprint event in January, although it is impossible to count, but Jiang Haoping believes that there are no longer a few people in China like Lin Bang who have never understood track and field sprinting and suddenly become interested.

Especially after Antan's advertisement was broadcast, the advertising slogan "Let the world bow its head in front of you", even if he Jiang Haoping is not confused, he is still enthusiastic.

A good athlete and a good benchmark can always drive the craze in this way.

"Xiaolin, what are you doing with the pestle, take more pictures."

Jiang Haoping sighed for a while and came back to his senses, at this time, the conference site was introducing the athletes one by one.

Jiang Haoping found that Lin Bang, like him, was also standing there stunned, and the camera in his hand didn't even mean to lift it. Several people in the media area next to them have looked at the two of them with strange eyes, "Sports" is a large print media of domestic sports newspapers, but these two reporters are not so professional when they look at them.

"It's so boring to shoot a group of foreigners, it's dark, who looks, I'll wait for Su Zu and Chen Jian to come out and shoot again." Lin Bang stretched his neck, paying attention to the movement of the arena, and did not want to take pictures at all.

Jiang Haoping smiled, raised his camera and took a few photos, and put them down. Lin Bang is right, almost all of the world's top sprinters are black, and for the domestic reading community, there are few who can really recognize and distinguish them.

While the two were talking, the gunshots of the first group of the semi-finals had already sounded, and the eight players of the first group of the semi-finals rushed out of the starting line, and in a blink of an eye, all the runners had already rushed across the finish line. After a few more seconds, on the big screen, the athletes' results began to appear.

"Wow!" Looking at the results of the first group of preliminaries on the screen, Jiang Haoping's eyes widened, "Sure enough, most of the players in this semi-final have begun to exert their strength, and the first score to break ten has come out." ”

On the big screen, Portugal's Obikoviru, who won the semi-final group, ran a time of 9.93 seconds, followed by the second and third place in the semi-final group, Britain's Mark Lewis and Jamaica's Dwight Thomas both ran 10.12 seconds.

"Obikviru running so fast?" Lin Bang was also stunned when he looked at it, his understanding of Obi Keviru was still stuck in this year's indoor competition and Fang Cai's preliminaries loss to Su Zu, but in the blink of an eye, he had already run into 10 seconds.

This is the Olympics, no one in the whole of Asia has run under 10 seconds for decades, and the Olympics are only the second round of rematches, and someone broke 10 in the first group stage.

With the exit of the first group of athletes in the semi-finals, the athletes of the second group of the semi-finals appeared in the 100-meter starting area under the leadership of the check-in guide.

"Quick, it's time to take a picture!"

Jiang Haoping greeted him, just holding the camera and was about to squeeze towards the position on the other side of the starting line, but Lin Bang didn't wait for him to speak, and he had already moved as soon as Su Zu appeared on the field.

In addition to the two of them, other Chinese media people are similar, with their own athletes standing on the track of the rematch, no matter what, they have to take a few more photos, even if they can't make headlines when they go back, the first athlete to stand in the 100-meter semi-rematch in the Olympic arena is also worth commemorating and collecting.

……

Su Zu stood in front of the start, and looked at the photographer and videographer next to the track who were packing up their equipment, lying on the open space next to the track, adjusting the lens, preparing to catch the athletes' movements at the moment of starting.

Although it was almost 8 o'clock in the evening, after a whole day of exposure, Su Zu still felt a little warm when he stepped on the rubber runway in spiked shoes. It is conceivable that if the whole person is lying on the ground, it will definitely not feel very good, and I still admire the professionalism of these photographers.

On the fifth track, he checked the starting gear, adjusted it to a position that matched his leg length and habits, and after trying it and felt that it was okay, Su Zu got up and took off the thin jacket on his body.

At the back of each runner's pass is a plastic basket for the athletes' personal belongings, which are guarded by volunteers specially arranged by the organizers of the event.

The few athletes in their coats next to him were similar, and they all started to make the final preparations before the competition. In the summer, the temperature in Athens is relatively high, but after the warm-up in the evening, you have to go through procedures such as check-in, and you need to go back and forth indoors and outdoors to maintain the temperature of your body and avoid stiff muscles and injuries during the game.

In the sound of the camera, the announcement of the conference is now sounding, from the athletes of the first lane to the eighth lane, the athletes of his group are:

First Course, Gnadi Chenabao, Kazakhstan;

second, Madik Osovnikar, Slovenia;

third lane, Obadri Thompson, Barbados;

Fourth Lane, Sean Crawford, USA;

Fifth Dao, Suzu, China;

Sixth Lane, Nicholas Mequezenas, Canada;

Seventh Lane, Deji Aliu, Nigeria;

Eighth lane, Vicente de Lima, Brazil;

Su Zu's lane is the fifth, and the fourth lane next to him is Shaun Crawford, and the group lanes of the semi-finals are basically arranged according to the results of the preliminary group stage.

In the morning heats, Shaun Crawford was first in lane 4 with a time of 10.02 seconds. Su Zu finished second in 10.05 seconds and ranked fifth. In lane three, Obadri Thompson had a time of 10.08 seconds in lane 3.

According to international practice, the three of them are the athletes with the best results in the preliminaries in this group, and the number of tracks arranged is also the most advantageous.

“On your marks.” After announcing all the athletes on the radio of the Games, the starter began to shout the passwords for each athlete to be ready.

Su Zu exhaled lightly twice, jumped in place, moved his body, and entered the state as soon as possible.

"Take it easy and follow the training."

Su Zu followed the command, squatted down in front of the starting line, stepped on the starting gear with both feet, looked straight at the finish line at the end of the distance, and gradually collected his mood.

Like him, at this moment, the athletes preparing for a starting line are making the final psychological adjustments, some of them are ready to start early and silently bow their heads, and some are like Su Zu who look straight at the end of the track, draw ten on their chests, or kiss the lucky object on their necks or something.

This is the last and most critical moment, whether it is praying for the blessings of the gods and Buddhas, or calming the heart, it is just a ritual action.

The stadium of 70,000 people was silenced in this pre-game tense atmosphere.

With his hands facing forward, he pressed a centimeter in front of the starting line, lowered his head, and saw the rough particles of the orange-red rubber track in his sight.

The whole body is in a state of stillness, and this calm contains a powerful force that will erupt violently at any time.

One second, two seconds,......

Time seemed to be stretching, and Su Zu's breathing was calm and slow, almost inaudible.

“SET.”

In the sound of the prepared command, Su Zu's body was completely a natural reaction during countless trainings, from squats on the front and back feet to half-squats and arches.

Syllable!

It's game on!

The stadium of tens of thousands of people was like a calm sea, suddenly turning into a storm and waves, and cheers and cheers broke through the sky.

The moment the eight athletes ran out of the starting line, the electronic timer connected to the starting gear showed the starting reaction of each athlete on a screen next to the starting area.

From lane 1 to lane 8, almost all the athletes in this group of semi-finalists had little difference in their starting reactions, basically between 0.155 seconds and 0.185 seconds.

The fastest start was Gnadi Chenabao in lane 1 with 0.154 seconds and the slowest was seventh with 0.185 seconds.

Su Zu had a starting reaction of 0.157 seconds in this group, which was third. From the moment he started, Su Zu's mind was completely empty, without the slightest distraction, and there was only one goal - the finish line.

Ten meters, twenty meters, thirty meters......

Su Zu quickly increased this cadence, and each step was running quickly with the once precise pace position.

As soon as the first 30 meters passed, the strongest athletes in the entire semi-final group began to gradually widen the gap with the people next to them.

In the first half of the race, Su Zu ran 60 meters with a fast cadence and was able to run 6.47 seconds. Although the starting distance of the 100-meter run has increased, it is still faster than most athletes.

The athletes of the first series quickly came to the fore, with Suzu, Sean Crawford, and Obadri Thompson, the three men almost neck-and-neck at this stage. In the second sequence, Vicente de Lima, Madik Osovnikar, Degian Aliu, and Nicolas Mequezenas chased after each other, almost half a body behind.

From the start to the acceleration, in a matter of seconds, the eight athletes in the rematch have done their best, and their speed has continued to increase.

Forty meters, fifty meters, sixty meters...... It was the highest speed of the run.

Without falling behind in the acceleration stage, after entering the middle run, Su Zu quickly began to seize the advantage.

Moreover, faster and faster, gradually opening up the gap with the players of the first and second series.

Obadri Thompson has been separated by two positions from Suzu, Vicente de Lima and Madik Osovnikar are more than half a meter away from second-tier athletes, and the gap between the last competitor and Suzu is more than two meters.

At this time, 60 meters in front, Su Zu ran to the first position.

The distance between the other players is gradually widening, and no one can catch up with him.

Wait, someone is catching up.

Sixty meters later, Sean Crawford caught up.

Shaun Crow is a strong 200-meter athlete, a typical athlete in the second half of the race, as long as the speed is combined, he can have a long speed endurance to maintain.

On the 100-meter track, Su Zu and Sean Crawford are next door, and in the first 60 meters, Su Zu has always maintained the advantage.

But sixty meters later, Sean Crawford began to exert strength in the second half of the race, and gradually caught up with Su Zu.

Su Zu was not suddenly nervous about Sean Crawford's sudden catch-up, and was disrupted by the rhythm.

Seventy meters, eighty meters, as fast as ninety meters......

The two are neck and neck, almost on the same level, and the gap is extremely weak.

The corner of Su Zu's eyes swept left and right, and at this time, except for him and Sean Crawford, the other athletes were far behind.

"It's time to let it go!"

The thought in Su Zu's mind flashed, and his movements slowed down slightly at the same time.

It is normal for 100-meter athletes to slow down in the last half of the race when they have absolute confidence and strength.

Especially in the last 10 or 20 meters, maintaining the top speed sprint is a rather physical thing, if it is not in the final finals, experienced athletes will basically start to release water to varying degrees after achieving the desired advantage and ranking.

Just when Su Zu's thoughts appeared and his movements slowed down slightly, Sean Crawford, who had been running in the same line with him, suddenly jumped out.

It's so ruthless!

The finish line is about to be, and Su Zu didn't expect that Sean Crawford was running almost with all his strength this time, maintaining the highest speed all the time, without the slightest sign of slowing down and releasing water.

At the moment when Su Zu's hesitation slowed down slightly, Shaun Crawford had already seized the advantage, opened a few positions away from him, and crossed the finish line first.

Rush the line!

9.89 seconds!

Sean Crawford's time came out, four hundredths faster than Obikweru's previous time of 9.93 seconds.

What about Su Zu?!

After eight athletes crossed the finish line one after another, the athletes' results were displayed on the stadium's large timing screen.

On the big screen of the list, the second column clearly shows his achievements.

Fifth, Su Zu, China, reacted 0.157 seconds, and scored 9.99 seconds.

"I'm breaking 10?"

Su Zu looked at the results on the screen, slightly dizzy.
