"Ye Chin, Ye Chin!"

After the game, the Bird's Nest Stadium was surrounded by reporters almost from the mixed aisle area.

Ye Qin stood in the middle of the protection of several staff members, smiling and waving at the reporters on both sides, and his mood was already a little excited at this time.

The world record of 9.73 seconds is at least a hundredth of a second for him, but it is this hundredth of a second that is a new world record.

To be able to have a world record of his own is undoubtedly the greatest affirmation for an athlete, even if Yechin knows that this record may not be able to hold for too long, and athletes like Asafavil, Yusse Bot and Jason Gaby are capable of breaking it.

But at this moment, it's its own.

witnessed his strength and achievements in the men's 100-meter sprint, which is a real climb to the top in a sense.

For example, Al-Safavir was not particularly good in terms of major honours, but he was previously considered to have almost dominated the men's 100m for three years, and there were several key factors, one of which was that in 2006, Asafavir was almost unbeaten in the men's 100m, and topped the IAAF men's 100m standings.

The second is that Asafavil is the athlete who has run the most men's 100m and 10 seconds in recent years, and his personal strength is undoubted.

The last is the world record, which began with Asafavir's world record of 9.77 seconds at the Athens Grand Prix in June 2005, and then equaled the world record of 9.77 seconds on two occasions, and then set a new world record of 9.74 seconds at the Italian Lieti Grand Prix after the World Championships in Osaka last year.

The third of these is particularly crucial, and the world record that has been swept by Asafavil in recent years is the confidence that he can stand on the highest peak of the men's 100m. Even if he missed the World Championships in Helsinki in '05 and lost the Osaka Grand Prix in '07, it still didn't affect his status.

But now, the world record has been won by Ye Chin, who has truly broken Asafavir's dominance in the men's 100 meters and reached the top of the world's No. 1 flyer.

"Ye Chin, can you tell me how you feel at the moment? Did you ever think before the race that you would break the world record? ”

One of the reporters shouted in a deep voice, and one microphone after another almost poked him in the face.

Ye Qin slightly avoided a little, and then nodded with a smile and replied: "Of course I was very excited, and I didn't think that I would break the world record before the game, I just wanted to run faster, and then let my teammates follow me to meet the Olympic standards, in fact, breaking the world record I always thought that I might wait until the Olympics, after all, the opponent at that time was stronger." ”

Everyone laughed.

Someone asked again: "Just now we saw that Yang Yao and Zhang Peimeng both qualified for the Olympic Games in the men's 100m event, plus Gu Kai before, we now have four people in the men's 100m, can you tell me which of the three of them will compete?" ”

"I don't know about this, it depends on the arrangement of the team and everyone's respective status." Ye Qin shook his head and chuckled, "And today is only the men's 100-meter race, and there will be the men's 200-meter soon, and there may be a few runners who will meet the participation standards by then." ”

"Ye Chin, Ye Chin, will you go abroad to compete before the Olympics next?"

"The details are still uncertain, and in the next time, we still have to practice more relay and cooperation."

……

At the end of a simple post-match interview, just after Ye Qin left the Bird's Nest Stadium and went straight to the training bureau to rest, the entire domestic media exploded almost instantly.

News and reports appear repeatedly from morning to night, either in media magazines, or on the Internet and television.

This is not a world record in race walking, it is not a world record in long-distance running, but the most talked-about world record in the men's sprint 100m in track and field events around the world.

Where are the limits of humanity?

Now the Chinese can give you the answer.

100 meters, 9.73 seconds!

The news that the men's 100-meter world record was broken by Ye Qin was like a hurricane violently blowing across the land of China.

A few weeks ago, when Ye Qinping set the world record, there was already a lot of discussion in China, but now this wave has set off waves to an unprecedented extent.

Especially now, on the eve of the 2008 Olympic Games, this news has stimulated everyone's emotions to be extremely high.

The morning news on May 23 began to broadcast the news about Ye Qin breaking the world record almost early in the morning.

In the morning sports column of the Central Fifth Channel, the famous sports commentator Han Shengqiao also made an inventory of the development history of the men's 100 meters.

From the war-torn era, Liu Changchun set a national 100-meter record of 10.7 seconds at that time.

Until 25 years later, during the New China period, Liang Jianxun ran 10.6 seconds, breaking the 100-meter record in old China

On 24 October 1965, he timed 10.0 seconds in the 100m, tying the world record set by former Federal Republic of Germany athlete Harry in 1960.

Since the end of the 70s of the last century, the men's 100 meters domestic men's 100 meters have entered the electronic timing, Guangdong famous Yuan Guoqiang has run 10.61 seconds in 1978, 10.53 seconds in 1979, and 10.52 seconds in Lausanne, Switzerland in 1982, and has refreshed three national records.

In 1983, Yu Zhuanghui set a new national 100m record in 10.51 seconds, an improvement of one hundredth of a second.

In 1984, Zhejiang's Zheng Chen improved the national record to 10.43 seconds.

At the 1985 Asian Athletics Championships held in Jakarta, Zheng Chen won the championship in 10.28 seconds, breaking the Asian record of 10.34 seconds set by Japanese athlete Hideo Iijima in 1968.

In 1986, 18-year-old Sichuan teenager Li Tao broke the Asian record again at the first Asian Youth Championships, with a time of 10.26 seconds.

In the 90s, Guangxi flyer Chen Wenzhong broke the national record three times again - ran 10.24 seconds in 1992, and ran 10.21 seconds and 10.20 seconds in the same competition in 1996.

It was not until 1998 that Jiangxi flyer Zhou Wei brought the Chinese men's 100 meters into 10.2 seconds - on June 6, 1998, he set a national record of 10.17 seconds in Beijing.

The Chinese men's 100-meter road to chasing the wind, it took another eight years to here, until Ye Qin began to concurrently compete in the men's 100-meter in 2006, and in the 06 World Youth Athletics Championships in Yanjing, he broke the national record with a time of 10.15 seconds to open a new page in the men's 100-meter.

After that, Ye Qin ran the 10-second mark for the first time in the Asian Games, and then won the men's 100m championship at the World Championships in Osaka with a time of 9.83 seconds.

The biggest change in the course of this period is that in just two or three years, Ye Qin started to run 100 meters, from the national record to the Asian record, and then to the current world record.

Everything is like a dream, and it is so natural.

When Yechin won the men's 200m championship at the 2005 World Championships in Helsinki, many people asserted that Yechin would definitely perform in the men's 100m event in the future.

It's just that what everyone didn't expect was that this day would come so quickly!

On the eve of the 2008 Olympic Games, Ye Qin set a new world record in a very ordinary Chinese track and field open!

Even if the level of this event is not particularly high, as a warm-up event before the Olympic Games, there are IAAF officials to guide and speak, the formality of the competition, and the strength that Ye Qin has shown in previous events, no one will question the untruthfulness of this result.

……

And the day after the news of Ye Qin breaking the men's 100-meter world record spread, the tickets for the "Good Luck Yanjing" Track and Field Open, which already had tens of thousands of seats left, were sold out in an instant.

The Bird's Nest Stadium, which can accommodate up to 80,000 to 90,000 people, was almost filled with track and field enthusiasts who came from the cities around Yanjing, and although there was no men's 100m event in the track and field competition on the second day, there was still a men's 200m event.

This made the Yenching Olympic Organizing Committee and the Chinese Athletics Association that organized this event very happy, originally according to their event schedule was a three-day "Good Luck Yanjing" China Athletics Open, the first and second days were Ye Qin's home field, men's 100m and 200m events, and the third day was Liu Yangyu's home men's 110m hurdles event.

The effect was obvious, and on the first day of the game, forty or fifty thousand people came to watch the game, but what I didn't expect was that due to Ye Qin's excellent performance, there were even more people on the second day, and the scalpers outside the door of the tickets for an ordinary open tournament had already been fried to prices ranging from hundreds to thousands.

"In this men's 200m race, the two of us still have to work harder, and at least one of them will have to reach the Olympic A standard."

In the rest area in the Bird's Nest Stadium, Yang Yao and Zhang Peimeng had just finished warming up, so they sat together and discussed in a whisper.

Ye Qin watched the two chatting from afar, and did not bother in the past, but still took care of the pre-game warm-up, now it is only three months away from the Olympic Games, at this time, it is not particularly important whether they can run better results in the competition, or even break the record, the most important thing is not to be injured, so that the body can get enough rest.

After breaking the men's 100m world record yesterday, although Yuan Guohua and Yu Weili were equally excited, in addition to congratulations, there were actually some other meanings in the words.

Even if he can now, he should not run too hard, and he needs to make some reservations.

The men's 1200-meter race seems to be a short distance, and the time of the competition is often only one or twenty seconds, but this is the explosion of the athlete's extreme state.

The load on the muscles, tendons, bones and internal organs of the body is super heavy, even if he is young now, he is the best time to produce results, resilience and endurance, many coaches, physiotherapists and some experts in human physiology do not recommend Ye Qin to run with all his strength often.

Ye Qin can now also really feel that the load on the body between running 9.9 seconds and running 9.73 seconds is completely different. It seems that there is only a difference of two-tenths of a second, but this two-tenths of a second requires the athlete's body to do work is twice the geometric number.

After running yesterday's 9.73 seconds, although he didn't feel any discomfort in his body, Ye Qin also understood that if he broke out with all his strength one after another, the burden on his body would be very huge, and it was likely to cause some injuries.

For athletes, injuries are the enemy, and it is best not to get injured if possible, because once the injury starts, many times the high-intensity competition will be repeated in the injured position, and eventually cause irreparable results.

In today's men's 200-meter race, Yuan Guohua actually suggested that Ye Qin could give up, but later saw that more and more spectators poured into the scene, Ye Qin didn't want to disappoint everyone, so he decided to play.

Of course, Ye Qin had already made up his mind from the beginning of this men's 200 meters, and it would not break out like the 100 meters, and it would be about the same as seven or eight percent of the strength to run.

On the other side, Yang Yao and Zhang Peimeng, who were discussing at this time, looked extremely cold at this time, and after yesterday's men's 100-meter race, the results of the two had come out.

Both of them have entered the A standard of the Olympic Games, plus Ye Qin and Gu Kai before, there are now four people in the men's 100 meters, and there are only three places for the A standard of the Olympic Games. If it is the World Championships, it is good to say that Ye Qin is the champion of the World Championships in Osaka last year, and he can get a wild card to participate directly, which will not affect the quota.

But now it's the Olympics!

Everyone is teammates on the same team, and they know that they are likely to be eliminated in the first round of the men's 100m event, and even if they play well, they will run to the rematch at most.

But for an athlete to be able to compete in a singles event on a stage like the Olympics, such an opportunity may not come once in a lifetime.

Especially people like Yang Yao and Gu Kai, both of whom are already twenty-five or sixteen years old, and it is unknown whether the next Olympics will be in the same state in four years.

Only Zhang Peimeng can still take into account the next two Olympic Games, but no one can say when the athlete will be in good shape and when he will retire due to injury.

So the opportunity is rare for everyone, and even more rare is that this time the Olympics are in their own country, in their own stadium. For an athlete, there is a very different meaning.

Yang Yao and Zhang Peimeng had a discussion after last night, and today's men's 200m event still has to go all out, and strive to be able to run into the Olympic Games A standard in the 200m event, only in this way, even if one person quits and does not participate in the men's 100m event, he can still participate in the men's 200m event.

Of course, the list of the specific Olympic men's 100-meter Chinese track and field team has not yet been determined, but Ye Qin is sure that only two of them and Gu Kai can participate, and everyone's results are actually between the best, even if there is a gap, it is not big.

And after the men's 4×100m training in the past few years, it can be said that they have deep feelings for each other, and they really want to eliminate their teammates to compete, to be honest, no one will feel good in their hearts.

Zhang Peimeng in the men's 100m results yesterday after the list came out, in fact, he is ready not to participate in the Olympics this year, his performance in the men's 100m is similar to Gu Kai, slightly inferior to Yang Yao, and in terms of age, he has a future.

It's just that Yang Yao also saw his thoughts, hoping that both of them can meet the standards of the Olympic Games in the men's 200m event, everyone's strength has actually reached the Olympic A standard, and the lack of at least one outbreak, if you can seize the opportunity, it is still very possible.

At 20:30 in the evening, the men's 200-meter final officially kicked off.

In the Bird's Nest Stadium, almost as soon as the athletes enter the stadium, the volume of the spectators in the stands of the spectators is raised to the highest level.

A lot of people took a special leave to watch the game today, and today is Friday, and after the leave, it happens to be the weekend until tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

Although many viewers saw the video of Ye Qin breaking the men's 100m world record last night on TV and the Internet today, many people still regret that they were not able to witness the birth of this miracle with their own eyes.

Fortunately, there is still a men's 200m race today, and they will be able to catch a glimpse of the world's flyers again.

In front of the men's 200-meter starting line, Ye Qin stood on the track of the fifth lane, looking at the almost overwhelming cheers of the audience, and the lights were shrouded, as if it was his own stage.

The imagination that in a few months' time, he will be here to face other famous players from all over the world, he is extremely excited.

To be able to participate in such a big event as the Olympic Games in your own country, and to be able to compete in it, to show your best form and results to your country and people, is a dream moment for an athlete.

Now, it's getting closer and closer to that point in time!

……

“On your marks！”

The starter on the sidelines shouted the player's password with a strong taste of Chinese English.

Ye Qin, Yang Yaozhang, Pei Meng and others successively walked on the 200-meter starting line in their respective paths.

In addition to the track and field athletes from all walks of life in China, there is also a Hong Kong athlete and an Australian athlete, and the others are all relatively good men's 200m athletes in China.

After a gunshot, the eight runners rushed out of the starting line.

Ye Qin was in the fourth lane, and in this 200-meter race, as he had previously envisioned, he did not start quickly from the beginning, but slowly increased his speed in a state that still had spare energy.

In the 200m event, he has tried many different running styles, from a fast start burst, to starting to reduce the cadence, increasing the stride length, pushing the speed forward step by step, or using the 200m as two speed highs to run, looking for the best result in various speed running styles.

The style of running he is now is similar to his early run, but as he continues to improve as an individual, even if he has a slight reservation in the first half of the race, he is still incredibly fast.

Ninety meters away from the end of the corner, Ye Qin had already run to the first place, and then maintained his advantage, sprinting all the way to the finish line.

Zhang Peimeng and Yang Yao, who were behind Ye Qin, seized this rare opportunity and followed Ye Qin to the death.

For athletes, if they want to create good results, they must have good opponents.

Having a good opponent can bring out the potential and allow yourself to go all out to explode.

Both of them are now eyeing Ye Qin, wanting to run the Olympic men's 200m A standard like the men's 100m event.

Yang Yao had run the Olympic A standard within 20.59 seconds before the Athens Olympics, and there were several times in previous years that he ran within 20.60 seconds, but after 07 years, the focus of this year's competition was on the men's 100 meters and relay, and the 200 meters had a slight decline, but not much, and he was fully qualified for the A standard.

Zhang Peimeng ran a best time of 20.74 seconds in last year's national championships, and this year he has also reached about 20.60 seconds in the men's 200m event in the team several times, and has already qualified to compete.

Corners into straights!

At this moment, the audience has boiled again, in the eyes of everyone, Ye Qin took the lead in rushing into the straight with a few positions ahead of the other players, and his speed did not seem to decrease in the slightest, but ran faster and faster.

Yang Yao and Zhang Peimeng, who were behind Ye Qin, were almost neck and neck, and they were chasing Ye Qin at a rapid pace, as for the other players, the strength of the other players was a little different, and they had been thrown away a lot by the three of them at this time.

Fifty meters, forty meters, thirty meters......

Getting closer and closer to the finish line, Ye Qin had already begun to release after fifty meters, running completely by the inertia of his body!

He basically didn't work too hard from the start to the middle of the race, and in this 200-meter race, he just used it as a speed and endurance training in the team.

But even so, the strength has arrived, and now basically the gap between other athletes and him is still very obvious!

20.03 seconds!

On the on-site timing board, after Ye Qin crossed the finish line, his group's results appeared.

The audience paused slightly, then continued to cheer and applaud.

When Ye Qin crossed the finish line, everyone could see that his lead was very obvious, more than a few meters faster than Zhang Peimeng in second place and Yang Yao in third place, but he did not expect the result to be only 20 seconds away.

If it was placed in the past, this result would have been terrifying enough, but many viewers are used to Ye Qin's results within 20 seconds, and when they saw this, they were still a little surprised.

However, many spectators clearly saw that Ye Qin did not go all out to run this game, but left room for energy, but did not feel too surprised.

After Ye Qin crossed the finish line, when he saw the result of 20.03 seconds, he did not immediately open his hands to greet the cheers, but stood on the track of the finish line, found Yang Yao and Zhang Peimeng, and waited with them for the results on the big screen.

"The third lane, Yang Yao, 20.54 seconds; The fifth lane, Zhang Peimeng, 20.58 seconds. ”

Two eye-catching achievements appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and suddenly both Yang Yao and Zhang Pei Meng shouted loudly with excitement.

Ye Qin hugged the two of them, and was equally happy for them, everyone is a teammate, they have been training together for so many years, they are like brothers, and it is a good thing to be able to participate in the Olympics together.

The men's 100m is now four people and the men's 200m is now three people, meaning that for the first time, both events will be fully quoted.

For track and field powerhouses such as the United States and Jamaica, there are many athletes who have reached the Olympic standards, and if you want to compete in the Olympic sprint event, you need to pass the domestic selection competition to qualify.

For China, in the sprint event, there are very few people who can basically meet the AB standard for participation, such as Ye Qin reached the Olympic men's 200m A standard and men's 400m B standard at the 2004 World Youth Championships, which is almost the line of fire to join the national team and represent the track and field team in the Olympics.

Because at that time, apart from him, only one Chen Hai reached the B standard in the 100 meters, and only one Yang Yao reached the A standard in the 200 meters, and no one else could reach the standard.

Now it is finally different, although the 400m event is only Ye Qin alone, but the 100m and 200m are able to reach the full quota of three people.

The audience was a little stunned at this time, and they didn't know why the three athletes suddenly became excited.

Soon a voice came from the big screen at the scene: "...... Friends from the audience, in the just-concluded men's 200-meter race, China's Yang Yao and Zhang Peimeng both ran into the Olympic men's 200-meter A standard, which means that our country will have three full quotas for the Olympic Games A standard for the first time in this year's men's 100-meter and 200-meter races.

From 2000, when almost no one in China's men's sprint event could qualify for the Olympic Games, to 2004, when Yang Yao and Ye Qin participated in the men's 200m and 400m races, and then to the 08 Yanjing Olympics this year, we have reached three runners in the men's 100m and 200m events......"

In the explanation of the live radio host, there were also many knowledgeable audience members in the audience who explained in whispers, and the 80,000 people in the audience fully understood at this time why Ye Qin, Yang Yao, and Zhang Peimeng were so excited on the stadium track!

From no one being able to qualify for the Olympic Games, to three people participating in the men's 100 meters and 200 meters, from the national record of 10.17 seconds to the world record of 9.73 seconds, the Chinese track and field men's sprint has made remarkable progress!
