……

Afternoon.

Zhaoqing Sports Center Stadium.

The crowd in the stands of the spectators was full of people, and compared with the stands with a small number of people in the morning, the attendance rate in the afternoon has reached six or seven percent.

Since last year's Athens Olympics, track and field events have become increasingly popular in China. The National Track and Field Concession Tournament was held in Zhaoqing City, which also attracted the attention of many local people.

Although Zhaoqing is not a provincial capital, it is located in Guangdong Province, and it has also been a transportation artery since ancient times, and its economic foundation is more solid than that of many inland cities.

Moreover, this time, because Liu Yangyu did not come, it was introduced on the news that Liu Yangyu would appear in the third stop Yichun City, and the local game tickets have been sold out in advance.

However, even if Liu Yangyu did not participate in the competition, the lineup of local audiences and many media in Guangdong Province this time was not bad. The Sports Bureau of Zhaoqing Municipal Government also attaches great importance to this competition, and its support is quite large.

Ye Qin stood in front of the starting line of the men's 400-meter final, looking at the audience far more than in the afternoon, and he also felt a little emotional in his heart.

Of course, he knew that the many spectators who suddenly appeared in the afternoon were not coming for him, even if he is now dubbed by the media as Liu Yangyu, the second person in Chinese track and field, but he is not an Olympic champion, and he has not achieved such outstanding achievements and achievements that break the race and various historical significance, and there is still a long way to go before he wants to be a household name.

The many spectators and media who came this time mainly focused on the men's 100m event, this afternoon is the men's 100m preliminaries, and tomorrow afternoon is the men's 100m final.

The focus of many media and audience support is the local athlete Wen Yongyi in Guangdong Province, this year's indoor track and field championships, Ye Qin won the double championship in three stops, and the same Wen Yongyi also won the men's 60-meter championship, and set a new national record.

In contrast, as an athlete from Haixi Province, he now has some fame in China, but he can't talk about the huge advantage of fighting at home like Wen Yongyi.

"With so many spectators, you have to run well in the afternoon!"

Although Ye Qin knew that many of the spectators were not coming for him, he still felt a little excited when he saw the spectators around the arena.

There are many performances on the field, and some athletes often perform surprisingly well on the training ground, but often fail on the field. Some of them are typical competition-type players, who may not be particularly outstanding in their usual training, but when it comes to the competition, they are excited by the atmosphere of competitors and spectators, and they suddenly have a performance beyond ordinary people.

Ye Qin himself is a player who is easily affected by the crowd and the atmosphere of the scene, and the frenetic atmosphere of the big arena may put pressure on some athletes, but in his opinion, there will only be better performances.

In this year's Indoor Championships in Yanjing, his performance was better than that of Shenghai Station and Jinmen Station, on the one hand, there were more spectators in Yanjing Station, and the atmosphere at the scene was more enthusiastic.

Taking a long breath, Ye Qinhuan glanced around the arena, except for this morning's preliminaries, he hadn't stood in the middle of the arena like this for a long time to pay attention to the crowd in the stands.

The stadium venue of Zhaoqing Sports Center is good, but the audience seats are not particularly large, there are probably more than 10,000 seats, and the attendance rate of six or seven percent is basically seven or eight thousand.

But even the cheers and cheers of the seven or eight thousand spectators were already able to make him feel a long-lost motivation.

"I hope that when I'm on the track and field, then it's going to be my moment!"

Ye Qin whispered silently what he had said to Chen Zhongzhou before, and now he now has a clear understanding of himself, he is an athlete who is naturally good at running, and his talent is mediocre in other aspects, only the field, only the competition, and only running is what he is good at.

Ye Qin determined that his real goal and belief was after the Athens Olympics, and for a long time before that, although he occasionally thought about this and that, he actually had a choice to face reality to some extent.

He wants to get ahead, wants to earn money to improve his family environment, wants to study and practice sports, but after the World Junior Championships, the World Youth Championships and the Olympic Games, many things in his heart have completely germinated.

From entering the national team, training under Randy Hunter, and winning three indoor championships this year, he may have been a little proud before these results, compared to his peers, compared to those classmates in Xiushui No. 2 Middle School, he is already ahead of the curve.

Now when they still need to sprint for the college entrance examination in 100 days, he has already received the admission letter from Mizuki University.

However, this is by no means a reason for him to be complacent and relaxed.

He saw the ecstasy of other athletes after winning the championship, the spotlight chase, and perhaps the history of IAAF and world athletics.

I want to be like that, and I want to be like that.

Recognize your talents, set a goal, and uphold the idea of becoming the best athlete -

And then it's time to run!

"Everyone's in place—"

Before the starting line of the men's 400m final, the starter, who was in charge of a wide mouth, shouted the password loudly.

Ye Qin beckoned to the audience, and then slowly walked to the starting line.

He knew that some viewers might know him, but probably more than that, they might just be completely unfamiliar with him.

But that's okay, you'll remember me after this game!

Ye Qin thought silently in his heart, slowly walked onto the running aid, leaned down, propped his hands in front of the starting line, and looked at the track that curved to the left in the distance, his expression became more and more determined.

Syllable!

Match gunshots.

From the moment the gunshots rang out, Ye Qin rushed out of the runway quickly.

The domestic men's 400-meter competition is more about competing with himself for a while, and some time before coming to Guangdong Province, he received a lot of calls from Haixi Province in Yanjing, some through the channel of Xiushui No. 2 Middle School, and some directly from the provincial team. Even Yan Jing and Sheng Hai, a few places where he often stayed for a long time because of training, had communicated with him.

This year is the year of the National Games, and anyone with a discerning eye can see his competitiveness in the men's 200m and men's 400m, not to mention the two gold medals, but there are indeed too few domestic track and field athletes who can compete with Ye Qin in this event.

In the stands, many spectators who were waiting to see today's men's 100-meter preliminaries, Wen Yongyi, as a player from Guangdong Province, although not local to Zhaoqing City, but not far away, as such a competition, they are still willing to support, and the men's 100-meter race itself is the most watched competition in track and field.

But at this time, the spectators in the stands were suddenly attracted by a figure.

In the front corner, everyone didn't see anything in particular, but in the second corner, all of a sudden, even with the influence of the number of stretches, many people saw the young player in the fourth lane, and suddenly threw off all the other players.

From the second corner to the final straight, the whole race seemed to be a stage for him to perform alone.

Randy Hunter has carefully observed all of Ye Chin's movements from the stands, he has seen a lot of Ye Chin's training, and he has also watched the two indoor matches of Jinmen and Yanjing up close.

By this time, his brow had furrowed tightly again.

He discovered a new problem, in this group of men's 400m races, after the first corner and into the straight, Ye Qin was much slower than he expected, which made him a little incomprehensible for a while.

In the men's 400m event, the gap between indoor and outdoor results can often reach 0.8 seconds or even more than 1 second, and he began to estimate that Ye Qin should be fast in the outdoor 400m on the track and field this time, but now it seems that it has not met his expectations.

"What's going on?"
