Berlin is the capital and largest city of Germany, as well as the political, economic and cultural center of Germany.

Berlin is located on the plains of northeastern Germany, at the confluence of the rivers Spree and Havre. It is not only the transportation center of the country, but also the transportation hub of air and rail on the European continent.

Berlin is rich in both natural and cultural landscapes. The city is known as the "Capital of Forests and Lakes" due to its high forest coverage, and the large and small lakes and wetlands surrounding the city. Berlin's architecture is also colourful and spectacular. There are old cathedrals and museums everywhere. The famous Brandenburg Gate, Alexanderplatz, the State Opera, the Museum Island, the Berlin Wall and Unter den Linden are all world-famous attractions.

Of course, Berlin is also one of the world's most important places for cultural exchange, with the Berliner Philharmonic, the Berlin Film Festival and the musical "Our Lady of Paris" also attracting a large number of tourists every year.

On September 16, the last leg of this year's IAAF Golden League, it will be held here.

……

At the press conference the day before the start of the race, Guo Zizhao also saw his old rival Green, as well as Johnson, who had just won the last Grand Prix.

Green was proud of himself in this year's international competitions, setting a new world record in the men's 100m. At the beginning of the year, he won the 60m championship at the 7th World Indoor Championships, and at the 7th World Athletics Championships that ended last month, he won three championships in the men's 100m, 200m and 4x100m relay. It can be said that this year is definitely the most beautiful year for Green.

The only regret is that at this year's Athletics Golden League, only three races have been won. The remaining three championships fell into the hands of Bolton, Surin and Guo Zizhao. Now the championship of this last leg is a bit chicken for Green. Even if he won it desperately, he couldn't participate in the distribution of the final gold prize, so today's Green seemed to be a little lacking in interest.

And Alain. Johnson was in high spirits this time. After two months of recovering races, he finally won a Grand Prix two days ago. I feel that my state is almost back to its peak. It's really time to wait for the opportunity to compete with these top masters again. It's a pity that the old guy Jackson didn't run away this year, so his opponent could only be Guo Zizhao.

Tut-tut...... I just don't know how this Chinese is going to be this time, I'm really looking forward to it......

。。。。。。

On the morning of the 16th, the final of the men's 100-meter dash will soon begin. Guo Zizhao also said hello to these old opponents one by one after finishing the warm-up.

Before entering the track, Guo Zizhao was a little happy. After looking at it just now, Green and Surin are not in good shape this time, they are still listless, and it is estimated that they don't have much desire for this last race. However, Montgomery still has some fighting spirit, but there is no possibility that his strength is not good.

"HP" 83, "STATUS" 78...... Tut-tut, it seems that the champion of this game is booked again! Ha ha...... In that case, then I'm welcome, this is a reward with 3 attribute points!

With a gunshot from the referee, the men's 100-meter final also started smoothly.

The process of the game was also as Guo Zizhao expected, Green and Su Lin did not mean to work hard at all. And Montgomery's strength was not good, and he was also insisting on about 70 meters, and he was slowly left behind by Guo Zizhao.

In the end, Guo Zizhao also rode the dust and won the 100-meter championship in this race with a time of 9.86 seconds. After the race, Guo Zizhao was also stunned, and once again posed as a bag on the track. Tut-tut...... I'm happy to have the income of attribute points again!

……

In the final of the 110-meter hurdles in the afternoon, Guo Zizhao's competitor this time was Johnson.

Although he also played against Johnson a few times before, Johnson at that time had not yet returned to his peak state after all. And now Johnson, but he is in good shape, and Guo Zizhao doesn't dare to be careless.

"Stamina" 82, "Status" 77, hmm...... It seems that Johnson's suppressive power this time is almost the same as Jackson's. Sure enough, I'm almost back to my peak state. Jackson, his current strength is still a little worse. Then I'm going to challenge this big guy today......

“on your marks…… set”

"Phew!"

Guo Zizhao and Johnson rushed out almost at the same time, and after the two started, they began to rush to the first hurdle at their own pace.

Johnson is also only 1.78 meters tall, and his technical characteristics are very similar to Jackson's. The perfect combination of frequency, rhythm and speed between hurdles was the most striking characteristic of the hurdlers who dominated in the 90s.

It is precisely by virtue of the advantages of frequency and technology that Johnson and Jackson, the two bigwigs, can suppress the new generation of players with long legs such as Garcia, Guo Zizhao, and Trammell.

The same was true in today's game, although Guo Zizhao was also fully armed. However, Johnson still relied on perfect hurdle technique, and slowly widened the distance between the two in the first five hurdles.

It seems that Johnson has also studied Guo Zizhao's game less. For Guo Zizhao's efforts in the back, the running method of accelerating and catching up is also very vigilant.

With the opening of Guo Zizhao's "Strong Intermediate Intermittent Sprint Skill", Guo Zizhao is also struggling to catch up in the back columns. Especially after getting off the last hurdle, he immediately turned on the "Strong Intermediate Sprint Skill" and accelerated towards the finish line again......

。。。。。。

At 13.06 seconds, Guo Zizhao finally regrettably lost to Johnson by 0.02 seconds, and only won a runner-up.

"Not bad, no big deal. Your performance this time is also at a normal level, and the gap between you and them is very close. Dad also analyzed the game after the game, and comforted Guo Zizhao.

"Well, it's still too much after the first half." Guo Zizhao also said very depressedly.

Can you not be depressed? It was the same in the final of the World Championships, against Jackson. Now it's the same with Johnson. It's too big a distance to be pulled down in the first half of the bars, although I struggled to catch up in the second half, but it's a little bit worse......

"Hmm...... If only you could see it. Dad also nodded, "Actually, this is the difference between your two generations of hurdlers." In Jackson and Johnson's time, there were not high requirements for athletes' height, so everyone focused on perfecting the hurdle technique. Now, the athletes are stronger in terms of height and physical fitness, and they are faster in the second half of the race. On the contrary, in terms of inter-column technology, you are all a little worse than the older generation. ”

"Well, you're right. If I had perfected the technique between the hurdles and narrowed the gap in the first half of the race, it would not have been a problem to win against them. ”

"So, they have their strengths, which are technology and frequency. Through the advantages of technology and frequency, the lead in the first half of the race was maintained. But in the second half, your physical and speed advantages come into play, like you, Garcia, Trammell and others. So, as long as you perfect your skills, it's not difficult to win them. Have faith in yourself......"

"Well, okay. Let's compete again in the grand finals in 9 days! Guo Zizhao also said confidently.

……

"Not bad." Dad also nodded appreciatively, "Actually, Johnson and Jackson are still a little different." Johnson's results have always been relatively stable, as long as there is no problem with his body, then his results are basically stable between 13 seconds ~ 13 seconds 15 seconds. He's got very little ups and downs, which is similar to you. However, when it comes to the finals of a major tournament, there are occasional bursts that break out and run under 13 seconds, but there are not many such times. His current best time is 12.93 seconds. So as long as you can win him once, then with your stable state, the future will be between five and five. ”

"Jackson is different. His results were not very stable in the early stage, and he could run a world record of 12.91 seconds, or he could run a time of about 13.20 seconds. As a result, his record in international competitions is much worse than Johnson's, and he now does not even have an Olympic gold medal in his hands. However, in the past two years, his form has been much more stable, and this year he won gold medals at the World Indoor Championships and the World Athletics Championships. It's a pity that now he is too old, and it is estimated that he will not be able to run for a few years. ”

"So, you still have a good chance of winning them. Come on, lad......"
