As the eight finalists, including Su Zu, followed the guide into the Olympic Stadium, a sudden burst of screams almost pierced people's eardrums.

"Who are these audiences ......?"

"Phew—"

A shrill scream was followed by a loud boo.

The boos began as a small corner of the stands, then spread from the south side of the stand to the back, until the entire stadium was completely enveloped in the huge boo. This is many times louder than the previous cheers and cheers, and it is simply deafening.

The eight finalists, who had just stepped onto the field, looked at each other and were almost stunned.

The 200m event started in the heats, and the Greek crowd was not friendly, but everything was still within acceptable conditions, after all, everyone knew what was going on. The crowd's protest against the Olympic committee was understandable, but the huge boos before the 200m final were completely unexpected.

Su Zu raised his head and glanced around, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening, and the lights in the middle of the Olympic Stadium may be too bright, so it was almost impossible to see the sixty or seventy thousand spectators in the upper and lower rows of spectators.

Only all kinds of fluttering flags, banners, glow sticks and other objects were dazzling, and for a while, Su Zu couldn't tell the difference between the places where he had seen Chinese audiences waving red flags and cheering a few times before.

And the cheering voices of the more than 60,000 people in the audience, who were all local Greek spectators, and the already small number of Chinese spectators, were almost completely muffled.

Su Zu walked around for a while in the midst of the loud noise, and finally noticed that there seemed to be a red flag waving near the 200-meter finish line in the audience's seats.

The extremely harsh noise had completely interfered with the game, and Su Zu listened to the noisy and noisy sounds one after another in the stadium, almost feeling that the blood of the whole person seemed to be flowing backwards, and the whole person couldn't help but feel anxious.

This is completely a natural physiological reaction, and the loud noise seriously affects people's emotions, makes people endocrine disorders, and unconsciously nervously tenses.

There was a pervasive noise in the ears, and no other sounds could be heard at all.

In the past, no matter how enthusiastic the event scene was, this kind of screaming and boos were only occasional sounds, and it would not be like today, after the eight athletes entered the arena, it was like a tsunami, and there was no intention of stopping at all.

Su Zu glanced left and right, and the black athletes, who were easily emotional, were also frowning, obviously distraught listening to the boundless boos and shouts. Especially Jamaica's Asafa Powell, Su Zu noticed that a lot of sweat seemed to suddenly appear on the other party's forehead, and his lips moved slightly, obviously saying something.

"Please be quiet! Watch the game civilly! ”

"Please be quiet! Watch the game civilly! ”

The radio of the conference was heard several times in succession with the persuasive voices of the presiding officer of the conference, bilingual in Greek and English, but they were completely useless, almost ignored them, and the voices became louder and louder.

"Kentrith—"

"Kentrith—"

"Kentrith—"

After a burst of boos, the stadium of 60,000 or 70,000 people suddenly heard a name in unison.

Eight athletes stood on the track and looked at each other, almost completely unable to play normally, and the starter and referee team had to drag out the time of the final in the midst of the loud noise.

In such a situation, the athletes can hardly hear the starting gunshots, and the mood and state fluctuations of the whole person are greatly affected.

“…… Now that our athletes have started to enter, the atmosphere is ......"

The audience in front of the TV, almost after seeing the athletes enter, heard a loud shrill whistle transmitted through the screen, and then the picture was urgently switched back to the studio of the imperial capital by the director, a man and a woman The two hosts were obviously a little caught off guard, paused slightly, sorted out the language and introduced the situation ahead to the audience in front of the camera.

"There was a huge boo just now, and the game was temporarily delayed, and our director temporarily switched back to the picture."

The main reason for this is that the former Greek 200m champion, Sydney Olympic champion Kentris, missed the Olympics after missing a drug test before the opening ceremony...... Tens of thousands of spectators in Greece are now chanting Kentris' name in protest. ”

"Let's analyze the finalists in this group, and Suzu is facing the best sprinters in the world at the moment. Many of them have still fought each other. ”

"That's right, like Sean Crawford and Obikweru, the previous two at the beginning of this year, in the 60m indoor World Championships, Suzu won them, and that time it seemed that Sean Crawford was the second place."

"Speaking of which, it was said that Su Zu ran too fast after winning the championship and almost rushed out of the competition area......"

The two hosts in the studio began to chat without words, introducing the athletes of the final and some related gossip and anecdotes, diverting the attention of the audience in front of the TV as much as possible.

When countless viewers in front of the TV saw the picture in front of them, many people felt bad, and the scene of this game did not look like a track and field competition at all, but like many football events.

Sure enough, it took about ten minutes before the picture in front of the TV switched back to the Olympic Stadium in Athens again.

"The game is restarting, the athletes are preparing for the game, and oh, Asafa Powell in lane 7 is retiring."

The voice of Yang Jian, the on-site commentator, sounded, and the shrill screams and boos in the background were still there, but they were much smaller than at the beginning.

In the camera, the athletes are back on the track, adjusting their final state one by one.

The loud noise has overwhelmed many athletes, the most unexpected of which is Jamaica's Asafa Powell, who gave up the game because of his voice interference or his own injury status.

As the clock progressed, the eight finalists were arranged on the big screen and TV screen at the Olympic Stadium.

First, Asafah, Powell;

the second lane, Obiqueru, Portugal;

Third Lane, Justin Gatlin, USA;

Fourth Lane, Sean Crawford, USA;

Fifth Dao, Suzu, China;

Sixth Path, Bernard Williams, USA;

Seventh Lane, Stefan Buckland, Mauritius;

Eighth Lane, Frankie Fredericks, Namibia;

“On your marks”

The on-site referee and starter reminded the athletes to be ready through the sound of a loudspeaker.

The audience in front of the TV and the audience in the stadium could barely hear the referee's command, and the picture only saw the athletes suddenly and uniformly walk onto the starting gear.

Su Zu took a deep breath, constantly calming down his somewhat restless emotions, and forced himself to calm down.

This kind of loud boo and noise stimulation is really the first time. He didn't know if he had been booed in foreign competitions before, and the sprinters were on the field, highly concentrated, and many times they couldn't take care of it at all.

But this time, almost the entire stadium was 60,000 or 70,000 spectators, and at the same time there were boos and screams, and there was no way to get rid of the distraction, so they could only adjust themselves step by step.

After leaning over and squatting, Su Zu looked at the curved runway in front of him, then lowered his head, silently looking at the starting line pressed by his fingers, constantly concentrating his attention and raising his body and spirit to the best state of preparation.

After yesterday's semi-finals, he was already feeling a little tired, and several negative attributes in the system reminded him that the back-to-back matches had taken a lot of toll on his body.

However, the successive bedtime massages, as well as the warm-up that replaced the usual physical energy with massage before the game, are still very good.

At this time, he could clearly feel that his mind and body were at a peak state, even if he was disturbed by the loud noise, but after his mood calmed down, he quickly entered the state.

"You don't have to think about anything, you just have to run as hard as you can!"

The distracting thoughts in his mind gradually emptied, and at this time, in Su Zu's field of vision, there was only a fully extended runway, and other honors, pressures, tensions, noises, and other things that would affect his race were emptied, and he maintained the highest degree of concentration from the inside out.

“SET！” The starter's prep sounded.

At the same time, the spectators saw the athletes change from a squatting state to a starting position, and understood that the starting gun was about to be sounded, and they clamoured again.

But at this time, neither the referee nor the starter could stop the game again and still fire the order.

Syllable!

Match guns rang out.

Su Zu listened to the gunshots almost all the time, and only started and ran out when he heard the gunshots exactly.

There was no doubt that his start was slow, but the other athletes were in much the same situation, with all seven runners in the field being greatly disturbed by the noise and their reaction time to the start was relatively slow.

Of the seven finalists, Bernard Williams had the fastest reaction time of 0.173 seconds. In second place were Suzu and Obikwiru, both of whom were 0.183 seconds.

Stefan Buckland in lane 7 and Frankie Fredericks in lane 8 may have been more distracted and had slower reaction times because their passes were closer to the audience. Frankie Fredericks had a reaction time of 0.245 seconds and Stefan Buckland had an exaggerated 0.294 seconds.

This group of 200 meters is the final final, almost one step, Su Zu felt a huge pressure, all the athletes and the previous semi-finals are not in the same state at all, each of them is running at an accelerated pace.

Fifty meters......

Sandwiched between the three American players, Su Zu felt the speed of several people exploding with all their might.

He is the fifth, Sean Crawford is the fourth, as soon as the acceleration stage of the first tens of meters passes, he feels that Sean Crawford is quickly closing the distance between him, and Bernard Williams, who is in the sixth lane in front of him, is not slow at all, and the speed shown is not at all what Su Zu saw in the semi-finals.

And because Suzu was running in front, he couldn't detect Justin Gatling in the third lane, and after the start, he was extremely fast, almost catching up with Sean Crawford.

The other lane eight, Frankie Fredericks, was just as fast in the first half of the race, maintaining the distance he had in the first half of the lane and trying not to be overtaken by the other runners.

Seventy meters, eighty meters, ninety meters......

Obi Keviru, who ran in the second lane, began to exert his strength with his height and leg length advantage of 1.91 meters, constantly shortening the distance between him and other runners.

Su Zu had already felt Sean Crawford approaching him more and more, the fourth and fifth lanes were less than four meters apart, and as the corners gradually approached the straight and Sean Crawford's continuous force, the distance between the two was only more than a meter.

Su Zu looked at the track in front of him intently, without the slightest panic, and kept firmly stabilizing his rhythm, at this time, a fast athlete suddenly chased by his side, it was easy for the runner in front of him to disrupt his rhythm.

You must be calm and keep your rhythm, once you are taken away by others, you will only be left with the idea that you can't be surpassed by others or want to surpass others and catch up with others, which will not be able to play to your strengths.

The rhythm is chaotic, for the 200-meter event, it is difficult to run in the second half of the race, a little nervous and relaxed, the opponent will go out several meters away, and it is impossible to catch up, even if it is overtaken, it must be stabilized.

Similarly, as the corners approach this section of the straight, all the competitors are getting closer and closer, and the positions of each pass are beginning to be outlined.

"At the beginning of the race, everyone was hesitant to start, after the start, the leaders were Gatlin and Obik Viru, Seanford was accelerating, he ran to the first position, Suzu has been steadying his rhythm......"

In front of the TV, everyone was refreshed at the start of the race, their eyes glued to the screen almost motionless.

The spectators at the scene gradually quieted down the shrill boos after the athletes started, and occasionally a few cheering shouts could be heard.

In the blink of an eye, the curve enters the straight.

Entering the most critical level of the 200-meter race, the positions of the runners in each lane began to become clear.

One hundred and eleven meters, one hundred and twelve meters......

Enter the straight!

The spectators in person and in front of the television were now able to clearly see the position of the individual athletes.

At the top of the list was Sean Crawford, who was now in first place with his 100m strength and not as strong as Justin Gatlin, but with his superb cornering skills and the back of the final corner into the straight, he was now in first place.

Second is Justin Gatlin, who is the 100m champion and is undoubtedly the fastest in the 100m, just less than a position behind Shaun Crawford.

Third was Bernard Williams, who was equally surprising in this group, with three American athletes almost dominating the distance between 110 and 120 meters.

The fourth and fifth are Su Zu and Obi Keviru, although there are several passes between the two, but measured by the position of the horizontal line, at this moment the two are almost synchronously entering the straight.

Sixth is Namibia's veteran Frankie Fredericks, who was also very fast in the first half of the race, and only gradually weakened after eighty or ninety meters, but the gap with Suzu and Obikviru was only half a body smaller.

At the back of the list was Stefan Buckland, who was affected by a slow start and was unable to catch up with the fastest athletes in the 200m, even if he tried very hard to catch up.

And once he entered the straight, Yang Jian, the on-site game commentator, and the audience in front of the TV knew that this was the distance that Su Zu was best at. One by one, their eyes widened, and they were all looking forward to it.

Sure enough, after entering the straight, the athletes in the finals began to compete in speed and endurance at this stage after running more than 110 meters.

At this time, Su Zu was still in the stage of running at the highest speed on the way, and after entering the straight, he and Obi Keviru were only ten meters away, and they had already surpassed each other.

Yang Jian's voice, the on-site commentator, was ignited almost instantly by the excitement brought by Su Zu's rapid transcendence, "Su Zu, Su Zu caught up with Obi Kevilu, and Su Zu is still chasing ...... He's neck and neck with Bernard Williams, come on, Suzu! ……”

One hundred and forty meters, one hundred and fifty meters, one hundred and sixty meters......

Suzu's speed increased to the extreme, and after a short time with Obikviru, he overtook the opponent and caught up with Bernard Williams, who was still in third place at this time.

At this time, Frankie Fredericks, who was in the eighth lane, was also catching up quickly, and gradually chased from the backward position to Obikviru's side.

On the field, you chase me, and there is a difference in the distance between several athletes, but except for Sean Crawford in the first place, the difference between the others is only one or two positions.

In a 200-meter event, the distance of several positions is often something that can be overtaken in an instant.

One hundred and seventy meters, one hundred and eighty meters......

The scene boiled over.

Countless screaming spectators who were still booing couldn't help but be attracted by the fierce competition on the field at this time.

Shaun Crawford was unbeatable, his extreme speed and endurance and ability in the second half of the race were on full display, and he gradually expanded from a distance of only one or two positions to a one-metre or two-metre advantage.

And Su Zu started to chase all the way from the fourth and fifth positions, and at this time he had reached the second position, overtaking Justin Gatlin, and gradually chasing after Sean Crawford.

Behind him, Bernard Williams's speed also seemed to be stimulated by Suzu, and he gradually caught up at this distance, and was already running side by side with Gatlin.

"Su Zu, come on!"

"Rush, rush!"

"Hurry up, catch him!"

Countless cheers and cheers from the Olympic Stadium in Athens to the audience in front of the domestic TV set, one by one clenched their fists and gritted their teeth, all cheering for Su Zu on the field at this moment!

A figure in a red tracksuit, mixed with three black players in white USA sportswear, is particularly bright and eye-catching, attracting the attention of almost all Chinese people.

One hundred and ninety meters......

Su Zu is getting closer and closer to Shaun Crawford, from the gap of more than one meter at the beginning, to now gradually shrinking to a gap in size, and is still narrowing this gap.

One hundred and ninety-five meters...... One hundred and ninety-seven meters...... One hundred and ninety-nine meters......

Rush the line!

"Su Zu, Su Zu is chasing, he is already in the second position, he is chasing Sean Crawford."

Yang Jian, the host of the on-site commentary, almost all of his voice became excited, and after a sudden rise, he slowly lowered himself, and said with a lot of chagrin and pity, "Oops, the finish line of the last 200 meters has arrived, Su Zu won the silver medal, and the first is Sean Crawford." ”

After Su Zu crossed the finish line, he ran forward by inertia, looked at Sean Crawford on the side, and let out a long breath.

If he could be given another ten meters of distance, he might be able to catch up with Sean Crawford, but now, in the end, it was still a little bit behind.

As the seven athletes crossed the finish line one after another, the speed of everyone gradually slowed down, and their chests and abdomen rose and fell violently, panting violently.

On the runway, Sean Crawford was half-squatting on the ground, raising his head and paying close attention to the big screen at the scene, and behind him, Su Zu held his knees, looking at the screen with the same eyes.

1. Fourth lane, Sean Crawford, USA, reaction 0.226, time 19.79;

2. Fifth lane, Su Zu, China, reaction 0.183, score 19.96 seconds;

3. Sixth lane, Bernard Williams, USA, reaction 0.173, time 20.01;

4. Third lane, Justin Gatlin, USA, reaction 0.195, time 20.03;

5. Eighth lane, Frankie Fredericks, Namibia, reaction 0.248, time 20.14;

6. Second lane, Obikoviru, Portugal, reaction 0.183, time 20.14 seconds;

7. 7th lane, Stefan Buckland, Mauritius, reaction 0.294, score 20.24;

8. First Lane, Asafa Powell, Jamaica, Reaction None, Score DNS

After breaking the Asian record in the 100m, Su Zu broke the Asian record again in the 200m, and was the first non-black athlete to break the 10-second mark in the 100m and 20-second in the 200m.

Su Zu won the bronze medal in the 100 meters from the 100 meters, and now he has won the silver medal in the 200 meters again, which is already a huge leap, step by step, marking the prosperity of our track and field career. He is still very young, only 17 years old, and we have reason to believe that he will achieve even better results at the 2008 Beijing Olympics in the future, so let's wait and see......"

In Yang Jian's commentary, the seven finalists who had seen their respective achievements on the field stood up and hugged each other and shook hands to bless each other.

The final of the 200m is over.

Although the result was not a gold medal and not as good as everyone expected, this silver medal was not easy to come by.

The first Chinese athlete to run 20 seconds in the 200m broke Shingo Suesu's Asian record of 20.03 seconds and improved the record by 0.07 seconds.

At this time, the audience at the scene booed again after the results of the players came out, and it seemed that they had returned to the pre-competition at the beginning.

At the end of the 200m final, the champions, runners-up and runners-up were born, and none of them were Greek athletes, who had already competed as a previous Olympic champion.

Amid the huge boos, Suzu walked up to Sean Crawford and blessed him: "Congratulations, Sean, you are the champion. ”

Sean Crawford spread his hands and signaled that he couldn't hear clearly, and the stadium was almost overwhelmingly booed, which was completely unpleasant for an athlete who had just won a championship.

Suzu patted Sean Crawford on the shoulder and smiled, the black athlete had always admired him.

In the 2008 Olympic Games 200m final in another time and space, there was an incomparably profound thing for Su Zu.

Sean Crawford was the runner-up in the 200m at the '08 Olympics, and in the original 200m final, he was not second, but fourth, and was promoted to second later. Originally, the second place went to Wallace Spearmon of the United States, and the third place went to Kuranti Martina of the Netherlands Antilles.

After the 200m final, Wallace Spearmon, who finished second, was disqualified by the referee for a foul on the track. After the U.S. delegation protested, the on-site referee retrieved a video of the entire event, and it turned out that Wallace Spearmon had indeed violated the rules, but third-place Coolanti Martina also had a line-stepping violation.

Instead of protesting the foul on their athlete Wallace Spirmon, the U.S. delegation protested against Curanti Martina's violations.

The results speak for themselves, with Wallace Spearmon and Kuranti Martina disqualified in second and third place, while Sean Crawford and Walter Dicks, who are also in the United States, finished second and third.

And on August 28, 2008, Sean Crawford, under pressure from the U.S. delegation, awarded his silver medal to Kuranti Martina with great sportsmanship.

Sean Crawford's performance at that time really made Su Zu feel that he was a respectable sports athlete, as for the issue of illegal drugs, there is really no way to say this, almost the entire American track and field industry is a drug disaster, and athletes who can achieve results are involved. It's not a personal issue anymore.

On the field, the last athletes hugged each other and expressed their blessings.

The men's 200m final of the 28th Athens Olympic Games came to an end amid the boos in the sky.
