Chapter 138: The Fifth City Games

October 18, Changsha City, Shonan Province.

This year's City Games is the largest in the previous City Games, and it is not inferior to the National Games.

A total of 6,648 athletes participated, and the conference set up a total of 29 competitions and 289 events, of which 19 were held in Hunan, while sailing, cycling and other events have been held in other cities in other provinces. Seventy-eight regiments (teams) from across the country, including Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, participated in this City Games, which was also the first time that athletes from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan competed with mainland athletes in the City Games.

Since it is a five-division competition, before the opening ceremony on October 18, men's and women's volleyball, men's basketball, shooting (skeet), gymnastics, trampoline, diving, taekwondo and other events have been competed in the first four divisions.

What he saw and heard along the way, Su Zu really saw that "raising the strength of the whole province and running the City Games" is not an empty word, from the organization of the competition to the construction of venues, transportation and communications, safety and security, as well as logistics reception, news reports and other arrangements are in good order.

Moreover, this kind of grand sports event is huge for urban construction and commercial value development.

The development of modern sports has far exceeded the scope of sports itself, and has played a powerful role in promoting the development of politics, economy, society and culture.

CCTV launched two sets of programs on the fourth and fifth channels to broadcast the opening ceremony of the City Games, and CCTV Channel 5 will also broadcast the competitions of the City Games live throughout the whole process. In addition to CCTV will broadcast the opening ceremony live, the province's Hunan Satellite TV, economic television, public channels and sports channels will also broadcast the opening ceremony live, and CCTV has decided to use helicopters to shoot the opening ceremony at night, which is the first time in the live broadcast of the opening ceremony of the national comprehensive games. In addition, Hunan Satellite TV, Economic Television, Public Channel and Sports Channel will broadcast 28 matches live.

At 20 o'clock in the evening of the opening, when the players from each city entered the stadium in turn, the boiling audience and the ubiquitous media profoundly made Su Zu feel the warm atmosphere of the domestic comprehensive large-scale event in advance.

Helong Stadium, as the fourth largest stadium in the mainland, the scene of 50,000 or 60,000 seats are full, with the process of the opening ceremony, the audience constantly waved the castanets in their hands, so that the scene simulated the effect of applause. The dazzling lights and the opening ceremony performances that appeared one after another were even more eye-opening. "Dongting Waves", "Midstream Hitting Water", "Urban Spring Breeze" and "Star City Flying" form a big drama called "Tide Surge Xiangjiang".

Finally, the flame was fired into five ways from the lead to the cauldron and finally rose into a roaring flame, which was a spectacular scene.

Although the later generations of Su Zu watched the opening ceremony of the 08 Olympics from the TV video, no matter the specifications and grades are far beyond the City Games, when people are in the scene and appear as an athlete, they are still deeply infected by the atmosphere of the City Games.

According to the schedule, from October 19 to November 3, 23 major sports such as tennis, canoeing, men's and women's football, windsurfing, judo, shooting (step and hand movement), cycling, archery, and track and field began one by one.

The mother of the sport is athletics, which runs from October 29 to November 2, with a total of 47 events.

……

October 30th.

“…… Okay, audience friends, the women's 100m final of this City Games will be held soon, and the next one will be the men's 100m trapeze battle......"

The host's subdued voice came out of the TV.

In Yangping Village, Su Yuanhua's family moved a 29-inch color TV that he had just bought not long ago to the hall, and more than a dozen people were sitting in front of the TV at this time, staring intently at the TV screen.

"Brother Yuanhua, are you going to start?"

A rush of footsteps sounded, Lian Xiaofang pulled a dirty coat on his shoulder, and shouted at the person in front of the TV as soon as he entered the door without taking a breath.

"Xiaofang, are you done? Find a place to sit, and I'll pour you a cup of tea. ”

Ye Qingmei, who had been standing on the side, staring at the TV with a nervous expression, saw a guest enter the door and hurriedly greeted her.

"Alas, thank you, sister-in-law. I didn't just come back in a hurry after delivering the fish, this is Su Zu's game on TV, I have never seen it before, I'm an uncle, how can I not miss it. Lian Xiaofang pulled a bench and sat down, and said with a smile.

"It's not started yet, but it's almost there. When these girls are finished, it will be time for Su Zu and them. Su Yuanhua kept staring at the TV, and didn't look back to greet Lian Xiaofang, and replied directly.

"What's the point of these little babies being better than this?" Xu Sanye, who was missing an arm, smashed his mouth and said, "When I was young, I had to chase wild boars up the mountain for three or five miles." ”

"Hey, Xu Sanye, how can you compare? They're athletes, and they're a lot faster than you. Lian Xiaofang touched the sweat on his face with the inside of the dirty jacket on his shoulder, and said with a smile.

"Why can't it be compared?" Although Xu Sanye is old and one-armed, his temperament is still big, and his eyes are glaring, "Su Zu didn't see how fast he ran when he was at home." Let's just talk about you, you're far worse at carrying burdens than when I was younger. When I was your age, two hundred catties of millet, from Yangping to the town, I would take three breaths. ”

"Third master, third master, I was wrong, who doesn't know that you were a good laborer when you were young, and you were a labor pacesetter when you were in the production brigade." Lian Xiaofang saw that Xu Sanye was stiff, and immediately told him again and again, there are some things that this elderly person just can't compare with him.

"Well, you people don't do much now. I see, in these later lives, Su Zu's uncle is a strong laborer, a few years ago when I was showing people the mountains, he could shoulder four or five hundred catties of logs without anyone's hand. If you want me to say, Su Zu can be an athlete, that is, the family style is passed on from his mother's side, and he can eat it since he was a child, and Yuanhua and his father don't have much strength. ”

The old man muttered, and no one dared to answer the crowd sitting in front of the TV for a while, and they couldn't talk to the old man about the difference between this athlete and a working laborer.

While several people were talking, the women's 100-meter final of the City Games live broadcast on TV had ended, and the picture turned to the host's on-demand link.

“…… In this men's 100m final, the main highlight of this competition is the peak duel between Su Zu and Chen Jian. ”

"Yes, Su Zu has run twice from the National Championships to the Asian Championships, and has run a time of less than 10.20 seconds, one is a new national record, and the Asian Championships have also won the championship. Chen Jian's words also tied the national record at the National Championships. It was still a close battle between the two. ”

"In addition to Su Zu's 100-meter race to face off against Chen Jian, after that, tomorrow's 200-meter will also be with the current domestic 200-meter first Yang Guangzong to stage a peak competition, we are still looking forward to them being able to set another brilliant record in this City Games."

"Okay, the athletes are already on the pitch. The first is He Jun from Shuangqing City, who is also one of the most potential sprinters at the moment, and is an athlete from the Sports Technology Institute......"

In front of the Central Fifth Channel, the voices of Yang Jian, the famous track and field commentary host, and Han Shengqiao, the commentator of many sports programs, came out of the screen.
