Chapter 385: Breaking 10 (Big Chapter)
"Come on, Ye Chin!"
In the rest area of the Khalifa International Stadium, Gu Kai saw that Ye Qin was bowing his head and carefully tying his shoelaces, and gently patted the other party's shoulder.
"Brother Kai, wait until I help you get a championship back."
Ye Qin raised his head, he could see that Gu Kai's expression was a little lost, and he immediately smiled and squeezed his eyes at the other party.
"Okay, then you can win the championship!" Gu Kai shook his head slightly, showing a somewhat helpless smile.
He has been preparing for this year's Asian Games for a lot of time, but after he really played, probably because of the winter competition, he was never in shape, and he ran 10.64 seconds in the preliminaries to advance to the semifinals.
But in the semi-finals this morning, he did not play well, only running 10.75 seconds, a time far below his normal level, and missed the final.
The Chinese track and field team has three participants, Ye Qin needless to say, there is no suspense that he can advance to the finals, and Wen Yongyi also advanced with a time of 10.53 seconds, leaving him to be eliminated in the semifinals, which makes him somewhat uncomfortable.
For a domestic sprinter like Gu Kai, he is actually very clear about his positioning, and it is basically impossible to compete with masters from all walks of life in the world, after all, there is no result of about 10 seconds, or even within 10 seconds, and it is quite difficult for large-scale events such as the Olympic Games and the World Championships to enter the second and third rounds.
But the Olympics and the World Championships are not his stage, but at least the opponents he needs to face in the Asian Games are not very strong, at this time, Middle Eastern countries, including Qatar, have not begun to introduce naturalized athletes on a large scale, and the overall sprinting level is still at a relatively low stage.
He wants to compete for a medal at the Asian Games, and there is no doubt that now is the best time, and if he can perform at his level and run under 10.30 seconds, he is fully qualified to compete for a medal, or even a gold medal.
It's a pity that this opportunity was missed, the next Asian Games will be four years later, and by that time he will be almost twenty-eight or nineteen years old, and it is still a question whether he will stay on the track and field.
"Ye Qin, calm down, the key is not to make a mistake at the start! There is also Xiaowen, don't have doubts, and act decisively. β
After Gu Kai left, Chen Zhongzhou looked at Ye Qin and Wen Yongyi beside him, the two of them were already ready, waiting for the final check-in procedure, and stepped forward to say to Ye Qin again.
"Don't worry, Brother Chen!"
Ye Qin looked at the nervous look on Chen Zhongzhou's face and laughed, "Brother Chen, you weren't so nervous when I ran the World Championships, what's wrong today?" β
Chen Zhongzhou, as Ye Qin's assistant coach, has basically taken over most of Ye Qin's daily training work, and in the many competitions that Ye Qin has participated in, Chen Zhongzhou has always been relatively calm, and this time in an Asian Games-level competition, Ye Qin saw a little uneasy in the eyes of the other party.
Chen Zhongzhou was slightly stunned when he heard this, then shook his head and smiled, "I don't know how to do it myself, you work hard, come on!" β
"That's okay, Brother Chen, we're on the field."
Ye Qin turned his head to look at Wen Yongyi beside him, from Wen Yongyi's face, Ye Qin could vaguely catch a little nervousness again, he didn't say anything more.
Among the athletes Ye Qin is familiar with in China, sprinters are relatively talented when they are Chinese Yongyi, with a fast start and fast acceleration, but their personal competition mentality is relatively ordinary. Compared with Gu Kai and Yang Yao, they can give full play to their full strength in the face of the world's top players, and even occasionally run their best, Wen Yongyi has always lacked the mentality of the competition in this regard.
However, now that they are teammates after all, Ye Qin is still younger than the other party in terms of age, and he will not talk about these things to the other party for no reason.
And when Ye Qin and Wen Yongyi entered the check-in area to line up and were about to play, Chen Zhongzhou stood stunned and lost his mind, and muttered in a low voice: "The second 100 meters, Ye Qin, what kind of results can you run?" β
The reason why Chen Zhongzhou's heart is more nervous than usual is that he really cares about it. By the time he took over Yechin, he had already proven himself in the 200m and 400m events, and he would not be too much to imagine.
And the 100 meters, which is the crown jewel of track and field, Ye Qin broke the national record in the 100-meter preliminaries of the first World Youth Championships, and now it is the second, will it ......
Chen Zhongzhou didn't dare to think about it, some things were afraid of thinking too deeply, but when the real results came out, there was a comparison.
β¦β¦
In the Khalifa International Stadium, as soon as Ye Qin stepped in, he felt the sound and boiling noise rolling around him.
Compared to yesterday's heats and this morning's semi-finals, there is no doubt that tonight's men's 100m final is the focus of attention.
As soon as Ye Qin stepped onto the track and field field, he saw the camera of Al Jazeera not far away, barely turning his camera, the magnesium lights flickering, and the sound of the camera shutter clicking was still clearly audible even in such a boiling and noisy stadium.
ββ¦β¦ Audience friends, the men's 100m final will start immediately, and among the eight finalists are China's Ye Qin and Wen Yongyi, both of whom are participating in the Asian Games for the first time......"
In Mu Jiang's commentary, on the big screen at the scene, the information of the eight players in the men's 100-meter final also appeared in front of the audience and the audience in front of the TV.
First, Yahaya Ai-Ghchars, Saudi Arabia;
the second, Naoki Tsukahara, Japan;
Third Path, Vachala Sandi, Thailand;
Fourth, Yechin, China;
Fifth Path, Yahya al-Habi, Saudi Arabia;
Sixth Lane, Waleed Abdullah, Qatar;
Seventh Dao, Wen Yongyi, China;
Eighth course, Shigeyuki Kojima, Japan;
Among the eight finalists, two are from China, two from Japan, two from Saudi Arabia, one from Qatar and one from Tai.
Ye Qin still has a certain influence on Japan's Tsukahara Naoki, and as for Kojima Shigeyuki, he basically has no dealings.
In his concept, he originally thought that this Asian Games should meet Shingo Sueji and Asahara Shinji and others again, after all, in comparison, at this time, in the sprint event, the other party is the leading figure in Japan.
After Koji Ito, Shingo Sueji not only ran 20.03 seconds in the men's 200 meters, but also ran 10.05 seconds in the 100 meters.
Nobuharu Asahara, on the other hand, is an older athlete with a personal best of 10.02 seconds, holding the second place in the men's 100m in Japan.
Ye Qin believes that if he can run a men's 100m event with these two Japanese stars, the effect on his own training should be very significant, but unfortunately this idea has not been realized.
Standing in front of the starting track, Ye Qin raised his head and could see the finish line more than 100 meters away, which was impossible for him to participate in the men's 200m and men's 400m races.
Such a short distance of 100 meters is also a great challenge for myself. It's not because of the opponent, but the invisible pressure from the outside, and the pressure from the inside to break through.
His special men's 100m event is so smooth, which naturally pins on many people's expectations for the men's 100m, after all, among all track and field events, the 100m is the most popular event.
The men's 100m final, also known as the flying man battle, will be crowned the world flyer if he wins the Olympic World Championships.
The weight of this project naturally does not need to be repeated.
β¦β¦
In the women's dormitory building of Mizuki University, when someone appeared on the TV screen, suddenly the entire dormitory burst into an exclamation.
"Ye Qin feels a little more handsome than Gu Kai!"
"It's just that the skin is darker!"
"Black is stylish......"
"It's in such a good shape, it looks much more comfortable than other players!"
After the eight runners appeared at the starting line, the focus of the girls' attention could easily be strayed.
Among the many Asian players, Ye Qin's body is a little different from the others, and there are some characteristics similar to black players, which has been concluded in various studies of the national team.
With broad shoulders and long legs, a well-proportioned skeleton, and after years of strength training, the body has become more well-proportioned and powerful. Just standing on the field, Ye Qin's height is also relatively outstanding among many Asian players, and with a full body of muscles to support the sprint suit, there is a feeling of marble carving when he looks at it.
Chen Zixi was silent, but there was a rare tenderness in his eyes.
This time, when Ye Qin participated in the Asian Games, she did not send another message saying cheering or anything like that, but just said pay attention to your body.
With the gradual growth of age and experience, Chen Zixi has understood the different meanings in it.
She forgot a quote she had read in that book: "I'm actually a little scared of people saying cheers to me." It seems to mean that you have to work your own, and others can't help you, so you have to work hard. I feel like the word come on is quite lonely, it means that you are going to fight alone.
Therefore, she will not cheer Ye Qin again like she did when she was young, she doesn't want to see him fighting alone, she wants to stand with him.
βOn your marksοΌβ
On the field, the sound of a player in place was faintly heard through the TV screen.
Because the scene was very noisy, the sound on the TV was very subtle, but in the picture, everyone could see that the eight runners moved their hands and feet in front of the starting line and slowly walked onto the runner.
Ye Qin exhaled lightly twice, soothing his emotions.
In the moment of waiting for the start of the race, he did not look up and deliberately looked for the sign of the five-star red flag, this is the Asian Games, he knows that there are live broadcasts and broadcasts, and thousands of viewers in China will see his performance.
So, you don't need to pay special attention to whether anyone is watching him play!
Ye Qin could feel that the strings in his heart were a little tense after the starter's reminder was in place, but he was not a fledgling player, but a world-class player who had experienced various events, and he was already able to face his various emotions very calmly.
This is a very peculiar psychological adjustment, after all, people are not machines, they will encounter all kinds of situations, external, self-expected pressure, all the time.
He needs to draw on the power that makes him stronger and better, and discard the factors that interfere with his performance.
"Champion, yes, I want champion!"
Ye Qin stepped on the runner with both feet, his eyes took one last look at the finish line in front of him, and then slowly lowered his head, he heard his inner voice again.
Champions, he wants champions!
Whether it's the men's 200m, 400m, or now the men's 100m, he wants to be the champion!
In this Asian Games, he wants to complete the unprecedented championship of three sprint events and keep his name firmly on the stage of the Asian Games.
βSet!β
In the Khalifa International Stadium, the boiling noise quieted down a little, and even though it was winter, the air still filled the entire stadium with a scorching scorching smell.
After a preparation, the boiling atmosphere became more and more tense, although there were still many spectators who unconsciously made various calls, but compared to a larger part of the people, by this time, they were completely shocked by the atmosphere before the competition, and they couldn't help but close their mouths, leaving only their eyes staring motionlessly in front of the starting line.
In front of the starting line, the eight runners neatly changed from squatting to squatting to preparing for the start.
Ye Qin looked at the rough plastic ground on the ground, the white starting line seemed to be infinitely enlarged in his field of vision, and all interference had been completely eliminated in his mind at this moment.
The hustle and bustle on the sidelines, the pressure of the game, the value of self-realization, etc., were all dispelled by him at this moment.
His body tensed slightly, and his muscles partly relaxed, partly nervous, waiting for the gunfire to sound anytime and anywhere.
Syllable!
A crisp match gun rang out.
At the moment when the gunshot rang out, Ye Qin's hands and arms suddenly began to swing forward, and the force foot in front and the starting foot in the back burst out with the most powerful force at the same time, pushing the whole body from stationary to high-speed intense work.
In an instant, in the Khalifa International Stadium, which was a little quieter, the boiling cheers suddenly rose to the top.
The voice of the commentator Mu Jiang echoed in the ears of thousands of viewers in China after the gunshot: "...... It's game on! Ye Qin's starting reaction was very fast and the start was very steady......"
One-step, two-step, three-step......
Ye Qin gave his best start in the sprint event in the men's 100-meter final of the Asian Games, almost two or three short steps, compared to other opponents who are generally less than 1.8 meters tall, he is more than 1.85 meters tall in this short few steps, but he is not weak at all in these short steps, and even more fierce than others, fast!
In the spectator stands of the Chinese delegation, almost at the moment when the gunshots rang out. The leader of the delegation, Shang Xudang, the deputy leader, You Yuanwei, the deputy head coach of the track and field team, Yu Weili, and the head coach of the relay team, Yuan Guohua, couldn't help but stand up from their seats at the same time.
This is the men's 100m race at the Asian Games, and it is also the venue they have been waiting for for a long time.
Shots rang out and the game began!
Ye Qin, what kind of results will Ye Qin run?!
On the field, Ye Qin began to accelerate forward with the most perfect start at the moment when the gun rang out, and after ten meters, Ye Qin had already run almost half a body advantage from one of the competitors around him.
The opponents in the men's 100m final of the Asian Games are not the world's top experts, but for the sprint event, the first few steps of the Asian athletes' starting acceleration will not be too slow.
Like Wen Yongyi, who has a national men's 60-meter record, his starting action and starting speed have always been very fast, but in this game, it is only a distance of ten meters, and Ye Qin has already opened up half a body distance with Wen Yongyi.
Thailand's Wachala Sandi and Saudi Arabia's Yahya Habi, who were next to Yechin, were the only two who followed Yeqin in this short starting moment.
10 meters, 20 meters, 30 meters......
At the time of 30 meters, the other seven runners had begun to raise their heads unconsciously, and their bodies gradually changed from leaning forward to running straight, and they were really entering the high-speed stage of running on the way.
And Ye Qin still kept his head down, and he was still accelerating......
In addition, he was faster than the other runners in the acceleration phase.
In the men's 100m race, although it looks like it's not far away, it's just a matter of breath for the top sprinters to run from the beginning to the bottom, but in fact, there are always a lot of delicate skills in it.
For example, this acceleration, such as Wen Yongyi and Naoki Tsukahara, these players basically start to raise their heads and run quickly in front after twenty meters, and the advantage of running in this way is that the speed in front of them can reach the highest speed in the first few tens of meters.
However, the 100-meter race, not 30 meters, not 60 meters, but 100 meters.
Raising their heads too early and straightening up too early caused many competitors to interrupt their good start, unable to increase their speed even further.
In the middle and second half of the process, the speed power is greatly attenuated.
As for Ye Qin, he is the winner in the second half of the 200 meters, and with sufficient acceleration, he will burst out with the strongest speed in the back.
What's more, in the acceleration stage of the forty meters ahead, he was much faster than ordinary people!
Forty meters, fifty meters, sixty meters......
Forty meters later, Ye Qin slowly raised his head, his body began to lean forward, and gradually changed to an upright state with the increase of speed, and at the same time, he had completely run out of the first middle school and began to take a clear lead with the naked eye!
"Come on, Ye Qin come on!"
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!"
At this time, whether they were at the scene or in front of the TV, countless Chinese viewers pursed their lips tightly, but their hearts were shouting wildly one after another.
Sixty meters later, Ye Chin's speed increased to the extreme, and at this time, there was no one around him.
Naoki Tsukahara in the second lane, Vachara Sandi in the third lane, Yahaya Harpy in the fifth lane, and other players were all thrown away by him by more than two or three positions.
Run, Yechin!
Ye Qin didn't seem to notice the other runners around him at this moment, and his eyes were always only on the finish line.
In this men's 100-meter final, he has no opponent!
Not from the beginning!
If you really want to say that he has opponents, there are probably only two people.
One is Koji Ito, who set an Asian record of 10 seconds on the Asian Games stage in 1998.
The other is himself.
He needs to surpass himself and beat the previous generation of Japanese flyers who set a record of 10 seconds at the Asian Games!
He needs to break the ten-second mark!
Run!
Seventy meters, eighty meters, ninety meters......
Ye Chin's speed is getting faster and faster, compared to many competitors who have reached the highest point of the whole race in 50 or 60 meters, or even thirty or forty meters, the highest point of Ye Chin's absolute speed is still between 70 and 90 meters.
Whether it is starting or accelerating in the first few tens of meters, for a player of his level, although he has won against other opponents, on the real world stage, facing a world record holder like Asafa Weir is just an ordinary performance.
But in the second half, the second half of seventy or eighty meters, looking at the world, there are really only a few people who can compete with his coach.
"Ye Chin, it's okay!"
"Ye Chin, come on!"
"Faster, faster!"
The spectators in the stands on the sidelines were already ahead of everyone in Ye Chin, and as they got closer and closer to the finish line, their inner voices shouted more fiercely.
Men's 200m World Championships, a talented sprinter who can run 19.78 seconds in the 200m.
His 100 meters! His 100 meters will definitely work......
The start was perfect, the acceleration was sufficient, and the speed was soaring along the way......
On the track, Ye Qin could feel the wind whistling in his ears, and the fast running seemed to stimulate his vision in front of him a little blurred, so running so fast on the straight that he should have rarely had it in his memory.
In the past, at this stage of eighty or ninety meters, his speed performance should still be on the corner, facing the stage of the curve into the straight, and this time, he is knowing that running, removing the need to grasp the center of gravity of the body in the corner, he feels that he seems to have run out of the highest point of his speed!
The finish line is just around the corner!
Ye Qin didn't slow down, he still kept a high speed and rushed forward!
Rush the line!
There was a slight silence in the Khalifa International Stadium for a while, and suddenly, a huge sound broke out that could break through the sky.
At this moment, countless viewers squatting in front of the TV jumped up instantly!
Mu Jiang, who was in charge of the commentary of this event, almost almost slammed the broadcast table in front of him at this moment, his voice was still not covered up in this sudden outburst of the scene, and everyone could hear Mu Jiang seemed to be roaring: "...... Ye Qin crossed the finish line first! 9.98 seconds! A new Asian record, a new Olympic record, Ye Chin, Ye Qin broke the Asian record of 10 seconds set by Koji Ito in 1998, and Ye Qin became the first Asian athlete to run the 10-second mark in the men's 100 meters! Glory to Asia, glory to the world!
The 10-second mark was broken by Ye Chin! From Liu Changchun to Chen Jiaquan, from Yuan Guohua to Zheng Chen to Li Tao to Chen Wenzhong, at this moment, Ye Qin is the embodiment of generations of Chinese male sprinters, he has realized the dream of Chinese athletes to break the 10-second mark for a hundred years, and has become a well-deserved yellow man who runs the fastest. 9.98 seconds, an indisputable result of entering the 100-meter 10-second mark!
Men's 100m 9.98 seconds! Men's 200m 19.78 seconds! Men's 400m 44.47 seconds! Three records per person, Ye Qin completed the great experience of winning three continental records by one person! The young athlete, who is only 20 years old this year, has written his legend in this athletics field......"
"Old Yu, I'm ...... I actually saw it! β
At the position of the stands of the Chinese delegation, the leader Shang Xudang seemed to have tears in the corners of his eyes, turned his head to look at Yu Weili, who was also red, and his voice seemed to tremble.
"See, we did it, Ye Qin really did it!"
Yu Weili stepped forward and shook Shang Xudang's hands, and shouted emotionally.
On the other hand, Yuan Guohua and You Yuanwei are extremely emotional, and there is still a big gap between the time of 9.98 seconds and the current world record, but he is an Asian record. But it shattered the rumor that no one of the yellow race could run the 10-second mark in the sprint event.
This is a historic moment!
Ye Qin stood in the middle of the field, and the moment he saw that he had run the 100-meter time of 9.98 seconds, the whole person was also filled with a strong emotion in his chest.
I did it, I did it!
I was able to run for 10 seconds!
Before this race, before the results came out, he still had doubts about what he would be able to run in the men's 100m event.
He'd also worry about not being able to compete with the world's top men's 100m masters, but now he's broken the 10-second barrier and he's done it!
The impossible has become possible!
Since I can go in 10 seconds, since I can run in 10 seconds, then I can go one step further and go a little faster!
The spotlights of the audience flickered like stars, and the reporters who crossed down from the audience one by one ran around Ye Qin and followed him.
Thunderous shouts and bursts of applause were endless.
