Chapter 543 09 IAAF Golden League Berlin Station

"The entry list for the IAAF Golden League Berlin has been released!"

On June 12, in the VIP waiting room of Yanjing International Airport, Chen Zhongzhou held a laptop, looked at the list of contestants that had just been refreshed, and turned to Ye Qin and Zhuang Wei who were not far away.

"Who attended?" Zhuang Weizheng was leaning on the side of his seat a little bored, and when he heard Chen Zhongzhou's words, he suddenly came to his senses, moved his fat body and approached Chen Zhongzhou and asked.

Chen Zhongzhou stretched out his finger and pointed to the computer screen, "You can see for yourself." ”

"Daniel BAILEY,Simeon WILLIAMSON,Marc BURNS......" Zhuang Wei's big face occupied almost the entire laptop screen, looking at the lines of English names that popped up, chewing with some difficulty.

It took a long time to come back to his senses, looked at Chen Zhongzhou and asked, "Is this ...... It doesn't seem like there are any Jamaican players, there is only one Monzavo Edwards in the United States, is that right? ”

"That's right, Master Zhuang, it seems that your English skills are very good!"

Chen Zhongzhou saw that Zhuang Wei was a little struggling, but he still nodded along with him, "This is the list of men's 100m athletes, Daniel Bailey, Simon Williamson, Mark Burns, the names of these athletes should be clear when translated." And it's true that there are no Jamaican athletes, and there are relatively few athletes from the United States. ”

"Why is that?" Zhuang Wei stepped out of the way, his eyes still glanced at the computer screen, he knew the official website of the IAAF, but the website of the Golden League in Berlin was a little unfamiliar.

Ye Qin, who was listening to music with headphones next to him, put down his headphones at this time, and after hearing Zhuang Wei's words, he immediately laughed, "Yusse Bot and Jason Gabi didn't meet so quickly, and they probably won't have to wait until after July." ”

Seeing that Zhuang Wei was still a little puzzled, Ye Qin added again, "Mid-to-late June is probably the time of the U.S. Outdoor Track and Field Championships and the Jamaica National Track and Field Championships. ”

"I see."

Hearing Ye Qin's explanation, Zhuang Wei understood at this time, "That means that Ye Qin is still very promising to challenge the IAAF's million-dollar prize this time, at least this first stop should be very smooth." ”

The rules for U.S. athletes to participate in the championships and the Olympics are basically the same, except for the last World Championships champion who can get a wild card, and the three places are for the top three athletes in the U.S. Championships in a single event.

The Jamaica National Championships basically follow this approach in this regard, but it is still relatively flexible, and some of the best players can still have room to operate.

In recent years, China has also tried this method in the National Championships, but at present, there are not many athletes who can meet the AB standard of the World Championships and the Olympic Games, and basically they are still given priority to meet the AB standard for participation.

Zhuang Wei still has some understanding of the US Championships and the Dental Championships, and naturally understands that at this point in time, there are still fewer players from the two countries who will really come to Europe to compete, and the priority goals are placed on the domestic championships.

"The million-dollar reward is definitely going to be tried this time."

Ye Qin was also quite interested in the IAAF Golden League award that Zhuang Wei talked about. It's not that he's entirely focused on the prize money right now, but it's a good challenge.

In '06, Asafaville and Jason Gaby won all six chapters of the Golden League in the men's 100m and men's 400m, sharing the million-dollar prize.

This was a huge boost for the duo's dominance in their respective events at the time, as it wasn't easy for track and field athletes to be in great shape every game.

Ye Qin also wanted to try it in 2007, but because of the World Championships in Osaka, the final challenge did not continue after a few stops.

This year, he believes that the challenge of the Golden League will definitely be more intense, and whether it is himself or other players, the overall level has improved a lot.

The event he chose to challenge for the million-dollar prize this time is the men's 100m, and basically all track and field events are set up by the organizers for the men's 100m and men's 400m events, but the men's 200m event, because of the first two, is often not set considering the number of athletes participating.

Otherwise, Ye Qin wants to try the men's 200m event more this time. For him, the men's 200m was an important event to start with, and the two-time world champion cemented his place in the event, but unfortunately he was unable to continue that dominance at last year's Olympics, when he was crowned champion and broke the world record by Yusse Both.

"What is lost, I must get it back."

Ye Qin silently recited a classic line from a Hong Kong film he watched when he was a teenager, although he was still waiting at the airport at the moment, his heart seemed to have jumped to the men's 200m field at the World Championships in Berlin a few months later.

There's a gold medal there, a record waiting for him.

……

June 14, Olympic Stadium in Berlin.

Originally built to host the 1936 Summer Olympics, this stadium is the largest international stadium in Germany. Once during the 1936 Olympics, it was thought to have a record attendance of 100,000 people.

Since its renovation in 2004, the Olympic Stadium in Berlin has grown to 74,000 seats, making it the most prestigious stadium in the world.

The stadium will also be the venue for the IAAF World Athletics Championships in August.

One of the most important reasons why Ye Qin came to participate in the Golden League in Berlin this time is to adapt to the venue in advance.

It is not uncommon for track and field athletes to participate in the field in advance, but the organizers of the Berlin Golden League still gave Ye Qin a very high standard to be able to participate.

From the pick-up service after getting off the plane, to the hotel arrangements and the warm-up before the game, a series of arrangements are all handled in an orderly manner.

"There are still a lot of people coming to the audience today, and your influence in Europe is growing day by day."

In the players' lounge, Chen Zhongzhou, who had just arrived at the venue and was about to start warming up, looked at Ye Qin and couldn't help but say with a smile on his face.

Compared with the scene when he participated in the competition a few years ago, Ye Qin, who has become the world's number one track and field star, is naturally incomparably influential at this time.

Asia is Yechin's basic game, and this year's Yechin's appearance in Asian events, even if it is Japan, a former competitor, can cause a huge sensation.

After the Olympics, Yechin's influence in Europe last year has risen more than one level, especially in the face of the challenge of two strong opponents, Yusse Bot and Asafavir, and finally won the victory, so that many European track and field enthusiasts and ordinary people began to know his name.

"Then I should give the audience a good performance." Ye Qin looked at Chen Zhongzhou's excited look and smiled back.

He really thinks so, the players in this game are not strong, and what he needs more is self-challenge and self-breakthrough.

For this year's World Championships, Ye Qin is no longer preparing for the Olympics last year, which reduced the competition and waited for the big competition, but is preparing to start this month and push all the way to the final World Championships.

In addition to adapting to the needs of the venue, if this match can completely conquer the crowd that comes to watch the game, and wait until the World Championships in two months' time, then the wind will turn in his favor.

In this regard, athletes are actually the same.

After reaching a certain level of strength, playing at home and playing away is a very different mentality. In the Yenching Olympics, the Chinese delegation was able to rush to the first place in the gold medal table for the first time in history, in addition to the unprecedented attention of various sports teams, the most critical point is to fight at home.

In the competitive arena, many players will be affected by external emotions, and when everyone cheers for you and looks forward to your performance, many players will be enthusiastic in that scene, and have wonderful performances beyond ordinary people.

Of course, it is not uncommon for athletes who can't withstand this pressure to cause abnormal performance, but in comparison, athletes who can go to the top are basically a group of outstanding people in terms of personal mentality.

17 p.m.

After the men's 1500m and women's 100m hurdles and other competitions have been completed one after another, the heavyweight men's 100m is about to start as the penultimate race, which is finally about to start in the anxious waiting of the audience.

When Ye Qin's figure appeared on the track and field, it ignited the atmosphere of the entire arena almost immediately.

Many spectators at the scene spontaneously held up the long-prepared KT board with Ye Chin's name and head, and kept jumping in the crowd.

Many of them were spectators who watched Yechin perform at the IAAF finals in Stuttgart last year, and now they have gradually become Yechin fans.

For track and field enthusiasts, they may have known Yechin back to the 2005 World Championships in Helsinki, where he won the 200m for the first time.

And for many ordinary people, or people who don't pay attention to track and field competitions, Yechin is almost like he was born out of nowhere.

After the Olympics, the whole world seemed to know about him all at once.

From Asia to Europe, the competition of many races not only made people know the new 100m world flyer, but also made everyone wonder if he can break his own 100m world record.

There are also a number of TV stations such as BBC and Fox, as well as some large and small media newspapers, about Ye Chin's background and growth, as well as the previous competitions, the whole growth record is like an inspirational movie.

In particular, some reports that deliberately or unintentionally underworld the domestic leader portrayed Ye Chin's childhood and youth growth as how inhumane.

In this regard, although Ye Qin was a little helpless and clarified with the media audience many times, he couldn't help but like this kind of plot with some readers.

The story of a boy who crawled out of the dark abyss and finally stood on top of the world with his own efforts and courage, such a story is very popular both at home and abroad.

When it is exaggerated, even many foreign lawyer teams jump out to join in the fun, willing to fight a lawsuit for Ye Qin and so on.

And it is this inspirational experience, as well as the achievements that have been achieved now, that have brought Yechin's popularity to a new high.

There is almost no love of nationality or nationality, and every world record is set to represent not only individuals and countries, but also the limits of what human beings can reach.

9.5 seconds, 9 seconds 4, 9 seconds 3...... Or will there be a day when humans will be able to run in 9 seconds?!

All possibilities and impossibilities are born in this runway!

……

After walking on the track, Ye Qin first waved to the surrounding audience, made a signature gesture of one hand to the sky, and began to seriously check the starting gear and other equipment.

This is what Yuan Guohua has specially emphasized when he comes to Europe to compete, and he is now focusing on the eyes of the world, and every detail is done as well as possible.

Ye Qin adjusted the starting gear, and after two more test runs on the track, he stood in front of the starting line and began to wait quietly for the signal for the start of the race.

The IAAF Golden League in Berlin, formerly known as the Berlin International Athletics Championships, is one of the most historic athletics events.

It began in 1921, and during this long eighty or ninety years, due to some special political factors of war, it was interrupted, but it was finally able to start again.

However, this time, as a stop in the IAAF Golden League, it is likely that it will also be the last stop.

After the IAAF Diamond League was officially put on the agenda, the Berlin event was relegated to the second level of the IAAF World Challenge from 2010 onwards because it did not meet the criteria of the Elite Series in Athletics.

The Berlin International Athletics Competitions have set many historical records, including two in the 100m. The first was the women's 100m world record of 11.6 seconds set by Poland's Nisłava Varašewicz in 1937.

The other was the men's 100m world record of 9.9 seconds set by American flyer Steve Williams in 1975.

It is worth mentioning that Poland's Niława Varashiewicz was killed in an armed robbery in a parking lot in Cleveland on December 4, 1980, and her body after her death shows that she is not exactly female, but has many masculine characteristics, and there is debate about whether her record and achievements should be expunged.

“On your marks!”

Inside the Berlin Olympic Stadium, a voice reminding the players to take their positions sounded.

The boiling stadium gradually fell silent.

Nine runners pay attention to the running machine, keep their bodies still, and quietly listen to the next instructions.

“SET!”

Syllable!

After a gunshot, the nine athletes in front of the starting line started to accelerate quickly.

In this men's 100-meter race, Ye Qin is not familiar with many opponents, including Daniel Bailey, who he knows, and the other party has a close relationship with Yusse Bote, and Ye Qin has also dealt with him.

In addition, Trinidad and Tobago's Mark Burns, France's Ronald Bonon and others can be regarded as having crossed paths in the field.

However, although he is familiar with these athletes, from the moment he entered the men's 100m event, he quickly surpassed everyone else and entered a new level.

Ye Qin's gun race did not start fast, and he only started to accelerate after he heard the gunshot.

However, with his super speed acceleration ability in the first half, after forty meters, Ye Qin gradually began to surpass the opponents around him and began to run to the first place in the team.

To his surprise, Daniel Bailey was in good form in this race, and he was closely following Yechin at the 40-meter mark.

But after 50 metres, Daniel Bailey gradually lost the sheer speed and speed retention of Yechin in the second half of the race.

Daniel Bailey's start and explosiveness were excellent, and he was often beaten by Yusse Bott when he started to train together in the men's 100m.

In the audience, more than 30,000 and nearly 40,000 spectators were completely excited after the gunshots rang out.

Especially after Ye Qin took the lead from forty or fifty meters, the speed he showed caused many track and field fans to go crazy!

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

The distance between Ye Qin and the other runners behind him gradually widened, and in this 100 meters, except for the start he was a little slower, he basically ran very smoothly!

Rush the line!

When Ye Chin's figure crossed the finish line and Ye Chin's results appeared on the on-site timing board, the entire venue was boiling again.

Many people came to see the Golden League, waiting for the men's 100m race, which is the world record holder of the Olympic champion, and now the results have not disappointed them!

Yellow electronic numerals clearly appear on the chronograph plate, 9.75 seconds!

This is the new meet record at the Berlin International Athletics Championships, following the men's 100m record of 9.86 seconds set by Morris Green in 2000 and Asafavir in 2006.

After this race, the men's 100m record at the Berlin International Athletics Championships, which is the last year of the Golden League, officially entered within 9.80 seconds.

Although it did not break the Yenching World Record, it was a world record two years ago, and to date, the total number of people who have been able to run under 9.80 seconds in international athletics is only Yechin, Yusse Both, Jason Gaby, Jax Thelin (the result is not recognized), Asafaville and Moseley Green.

This is an absolute sprint trapeze field, capable of reaching under 9.80 seconds, and has the ability to compete for the championship in any major competition.

After Ye Qin ran the men's 100 meters, both the audience and reporters in the entire venue saw Ye Qin's excellent state.

In fact, everyone knows that before the World Championships, the players will warm up through various Grand Prix Golden Leagues, but few people really thought that Ye Qin would have such a good performance in the first game of the year in Europe.

In the past few years, during the Asafavir era, it was talked of as being able to run under 9.90 seconds almost casually.

And now, a new era has begun.

Breaking 9.90 seconds is no longer a topic worth discussing, and it's becoming more and more common for top athletes to run under 9.80 seconds.

"9.75 seconds doesn't seem to have much effort, and at the World Championships in this stadium two months later, what kind of results will Ye Qin be able to run at that time? As Yechin's strongest challengers, Usse Bot and Jason Gaby, how will the two excel? ”

At this time, such a thought floated in the hearts of countless people who saw this game.
