Chapter 317: Tears in my eyes

Before the finish line, Ye Qin watched Yusse Bot limp over in the last 50 meters, and waited for the opponent to cross the finish line before stepping forward to support the opponent.

"Hoo ......"

As if to let out a long breath, Yusse-Bott frowned tightly, and then, with Yechin's support, he grinned again, showing a forced smile.

"Number 100, congratulations!" Although the sudden muscle strain 50 meters from the finish line at the end made him almost crack his teeth at this time, when facing Ye Qin, a Chinese who is a friend and rival, Yusse Bot still maintained his sporting demeanor as much as possible.

"Thank you! If you don't get hurt at the last minute, I'm afraid I won't win. ”

Ye Qin helped Yusse Bot and replied with a smile, his body was very tired and tired, but his heart was extremely excited and excited.

Even, there is a bit of unreal and unreal feeling, like falling into a dream.

He won!

Yes! He won!

The 2005 World Championships men's 200m champion didn't seem to believe what he saw when he crossed the finish line at the end.

The result was what he wanted, and it was truly beyond his expectations.

In the last 50 meters, he really caught up with Jax Tring, the opponent's big stride running ability in the second half is actually not weak, the speed is still fast, he can win can be said to be full of serendipitous factors.

One of the most important is that there is a headwind on the straight, and after a fast run of more than 100 meters in the corner, most people fall very fast when they enter the straight.

And he and Wallace Spearmon were able to catch up with the backwind, and it was the straight headwind that allowed the other runners who were not good at the second half of the race to drop more than usual at this stage.

So much so that the two players who had the advantage in the second half of the race were able to quickly catch up from behind at this stage.

But there is also an element of chance in this, that is, in the last 50 meters, Yusse Bot was injured, if he really kept running, with the speed and endurance of the opponent's 400 meters and the size of the big stride, some things are really uncertain.

Yusse Bot's height and size, as well as scoliosis and other problems, caused him to strain his muscles when running the corners at maximum speed, especially in the first corner, with his size, running at full strength is very taxing on the body.

"Hey man, I'm fine, my coach is here!"

With Yechin's support, Yusse Bot walked to the advertising baffle next to the runway, when a large group of reporters suddenly ran out of it, and the clattering magnesium lights around the two of them flickered.

In the crowd of people who gathered around, an old black Jamaican man with a short body and gray hair followed suit.

That's Glenn Mills.

Yechin had heard of the coach of the Jamaican Runners' Club, but it was the first time he had actually met him face-to-face.

"Go and greet your cheers and applause!"

After Glenn Mills came over and helped Usse Bot from the other side, Yusse Bot smiled and pointed to the track ahead, at which point the applause on the field rang out again, much warmer than before.

"Okay, see you later!"

Ye Qin smiled and nodded, seeing that Yusse Bot didn't have to worry about him, he didn't have any pretentiousness, he simply let go neatly, and instead opened his hands and shouted around the runway.

At this moment, Ye Qin felt that his heart was so excited and excited, and all kinds of indescribable emotions rolled directly from his chest at the same time.

"Ye Chin, then, the flag!"

When passing by the sidelines, Ye Qin heard someone shouting at him, and he didn't know who it was, but he felt that a red thing suddenly floated in front of his eyes with some hazy vision, and he reached out and grabbed it in his hand.

Unfolded casually, it was a bright five-star red flag.

Ye Qin draped the red flag over his shoulders and ran slowly along the runway, the applause and cheers on the sidelines rose higher and higher.

He didn't even know why he was running like this in his heart, but at the moment when the red flag was draped on his shoulders, he just followed his most instinctive thoughts.

At this moment, countless domestic viewers in front of the TV saw the running figure on the field, and many people couldn't help but stand up, the men's 200-meter world champion, the Asian record...... This is the first time in the history of Chinese athletics.

“…… Yechin hugged Yusse Bot before the finish line, the two have known each other since the World Junior Championships in Sherbrooke, Canada in '03, and did not rush to celebrate after the victory, but first supported his rival, which is also a sign of good sportsmanship of our athletes......

A replay of the game picture on the spot, Ye Qin was not dominant from the start, but he ran very steadily, after 80 meters, Ye Qin's speed gradually increased, after the corner into the straight, Ye Qin from the fifth position successively surpassed the opponent in front of him, it was so exciting, and the final bending action was very standard and beautiful......

Back at the game site, we saw that Ye Qin had put on the five-star red flag and was trotting around the field, and the spectators in the stands in the stadium burst into huge applause. At this moment, Yechin's performance conquered all the spectators present, conquered Helsinki, and conquered each and every one of us.

This is the most worthy of the most important stroke in the history of Chinese sprinting, the 18-year-old Ye Qin created a miracle at the Helsinki Olympic Stadium, Ye Qin is the first athlete to break into the 200m final of the World Championships at the age of 18 and win the championship......

The voice of Mu Jiang, the on-site commentator, was transmitted from the on-site commentary seat in the Helsinki media area to the ears of thousands of households in China.

The mood is no longer as high as Fang Cai's, but it is still full of enthusiasm. Because it was the last game tonight, the broadcast time was extraordinarily long, and Mu Jiang wanted to say a lot of things.

In the TV screen, Ye Qin, after a week around the field, once again stopped near the finish line, where the yellow timing board surrounded many reporters inside and out.

Ye Qin stood on the edge of the screen with yellow electronic numbers of 19 seconds and 98 seconds, with a smile on his face and tears in his eyes.

When he stood on the international stage for the first time, he remembered that he deeply envied those who could take photos with his achievements and become the focus of all media audiences to take photos and interviews.

At that time, he was just envious, but when he really stood in front of the timing card where he ran the best time and won the coveted championship, Ye Qin only felt that the tear ducts in his eyes were completely uncontrollable.

From the very beginning of walking on the sports field, to running over and over again in the third class after school, to following Nie Fangping to travel north and south, to going abroad for the first time and winning medals.

This journey does not seem to be long, but Ye Qin feels that he has come a long time and a long way.

Stretched out his hand and wiped the tears on his face again, in the blurred vision, the unknown person had been standing in front of him, taking pictures, Ye Qin had always wanted to make himself laugh, but as soon as the corners of his mouth twitched, tears flowed down.

Commentator Mu Jiang's voice seemed to be hoarse as the tears slid down Ye Qin's face, "...... Ye Qin is in tears, and Liu Yangyu is also in tears after winning the men's 110-meter hurdles at the Olympics last year. Our athletes always can't hold back tears after their victory, because everything is so difficult, too difficult. This moment is the catharsis and release of the stress and emotions they have carried for many years, and those efforts that have been ridiculed as "useless" by the world are "recognized" on the world stage. How many times has the sense of loss of giving without reciprocation finally proved to be in vain at this moment......

Yechin, come on! China, come on! ”

……

"Coach, I'm sorry!"

On the other side of the runway, Eusei Both, supported by Glenn Mills, glanced back at the red figure from a distance, and then whispered to the old man beside him.

"No, Yusse." Glenn Mills shook his head slightly, without the slightest blame or even a look of loss on his face, but smiled brightly, "You've done a great job!" ”

"But I could have won the championship...... At the very least, there is a chance to win a medal! Yusse Bot looked calm in front of Ye Qin just now, but after seeing his coach at this moment, he couldn't hide his blame and pain.

After losing at last year's Olympics and then again at the World Championships, he doesn't know what kind of pressure he's going to face and what others are going to say about him.

"Yusse-" Glenn Mills paused, looked at Yusse Bote's slightly immature face with his head held high, and said slowly, "I'm not disappointed with your performance in this game, but I think you performed well, better than anyone else."

I'm so proud of you at this moment. It's not uncommon for athletes to get injured on the field, and you're never one to put up with pain, but you hold on for the last 50 meters, and you keep running it.

You've been a professional athlete since '03 and you've stepped into the professional arena, but I want to tell you, Yusse Bote, that you got injured at the end and still finished the game, and that's the most important thing. You're a real professional athlete now. ”
