Chapter 493: Fight the World Athletics Championships again

With the end of the Athens Olympics last year, the excellent performance of high-tech swimsuits in the pool has also been affirmed by almost the entire international swimming community.

Although in the men's 100m and 50m races, which attracted everyone's attention, Guo Zizhao beat all the competitors just by wearing a pair of boxer trunks, everyone still generally believes that this is just that Guo Zizhao's absolute strength is too strong, not a high-tech swimsuit.

Therefore, in this year's international swimming world, the popularity of high-tech swimsuits has been greatly improved. Especially in this World Swimming Championships, almost all the powerful players have done it one by one.

This year's sharp increase in sales of high-tech swimsuits has also made major sports equipment suppliers smile. In particular, the second-generation shark skin swimsuit of Speedo company has been loved by the majority of swimmers, so that this small sports equipment company has surpassed international giants such as Nike and Adi since this year, and has become the overlord in the field of professional swimsuit production and sales.

Of course, with the further research and development of sharkskin fabrics by Speedo in the future, generations of top-notch high-tech swimsuits are also chosen by the majority of swimmers.

During 2008~2009, Speedo's high-tech swimsuits accounted for more than 80% of the total market sales. There have even been cases where many swimmers have abandoned the old swimsuits such as Nike, Adi, and arena that they originally endorsed in order to choose Speedo's high-tech swimsuits for official competitions.

How can several old companies that are already very dissatisfied bear it? In addition, the complaints about high-tech swimsuits in the international swimming community are also deepening, so with the joint cooperation of several major companies, there is a resolution passed by the international swimming community to prohibit high-tech swimsuits from participating in official competitions.

Of course, for now, high-tech swimsuits are still highly sought after among swimmers. Even if Guo Zizhao's results this time make all the opponents wearing high-tech swimsuits look gloomy, but Guo Zizhao is just an example!

In addition to Guo Zizhao, how many of the other champions and record-breaking players are not wearing high-tech swimsuits?

……

Of course, Adi Company is also very satisfied with Guo Zizhao's performance in this World Championships.

Although due to the strength of Speedo and Thorpe's temporary break this year, the sales growth of Adi's sharkskin swimsuit is not satisfactory. However, due to the existence of such a top superstar as Guo Zizhao, Adi's sales in ordinary swimsuits have increased significantly.

Although the price of ordinary swimsuits cannot be compared with shark skin swimsuits, in terms of scope of application and sales, it is much better than high-tech professional swimsuits. Therefore, Adi Company is still very satisfied with the star effect brought by Guo Zizhao!

Similarly, the tour management center is relatively satisfied with the results of the Chinese team in this World Championships.

The diving team won 5 golds, 4 silvers and 3 bronzes, and the swimming team won 2 golds, 1 silver and 4 bronzes. In the end, the Chinese team ranked third in the gold medal list with 7 gold, 5 silver and 7 bronze medals. The United States team and the Australian team still occupy the top two in the gold medal table by virtue of their absolute strength.

The U.S. team's 17 gold, 15 silver and 7 bronze medals, and Australia's 13 gold, 8 silver and 4 bronze medals also make other countries look up to the mountains. It seems that in swimming, it is still the world of Caucasians!

However, Guo Zizhao is not interested in lamenting this. After the end of this World Swimming Championships, the rewards of the system also followed.

……

Another reward of 10 stat points!

Guo Zizhao didn't think much about it, and directly added it to the "bounce" attribute again, making the "bounce" attribute change from 81 points to 91 points again.

Hey...... In this way, my strength in swimming will be improved again. Moreover, now that he has reached the international level in the seven attributes of "strength", "speed", "agility", "endurance", "precision", "bounce" and "skill", the next step is to strive for the "physique" and the next step

Let's take the "spiritual" attribute a little higher!

And the World Athletics Championships, which will start a week later, will be your chance to get a system reward! Hey......

Of course, in addition to the reward of attribute points, the system reward of a total of 5400 experience points also makes Guo Zizhao a dragon's face!

Well...... Participating in the competition is a reward of 1800 experience points, two championships, two world records, and exactly two 1800 experience points rewards, no problem......

Ha ha...... At this World Swimming Championships, I didn't consume any experience points! With so much experience to be earned, what's not to be satisfied with!

……

After the last day of the tournament on July 31, the national team began to pack up and prepare to return home.

And Guo Zizhao also parted ways with everyone and flew to Finland on a transfer flight. A week later, the 10th World Athletics Championships in Helsinki, Finland, will begin.

Guo Zizhao also rushed over early, and by the way, he carried out adaptability training. After all, the "bounce" attribute has suddenly risen from the Asian level to the international top level, and Guo Zizhao will have to adapt to it for a few days.

Especially after the two attributes of "bounce" and "skill" reached 91 points, Guo Zizhao found that his sprinting strength seemed to have increased a little bit. Although it is only an improvement of about 0.02 seconds, it also makes Guo Zizhao feel very happy.

However, after Guo Zizhao carefully pondered this year's World Championships in Athletics for a while, Guo Zizhao's joy faded a little. Alas...... This World Championships, it is estimated that there are no good rewards to take!

The 100m and 110m hurdles have been competing since the 1999 World Championships in Seville, Spain, and so far this year, they are both participating for the fourth time, so there is no reward to be awarded.

The 200m and 400m events also began to win the first World Championships award at the 2001 World Championships in Edmonton, Canada. This is also the third time to participate in the competition, and there are no rewards.

At this World Championships, the only event that has any hope of winning a prize is the men's 4x100m sprint relay. This one only started at the 2003 World Championships in Paris, so if you win again this year, you can still get a half-cut reward.

Half the reward!

Your sister, Guo Zizhao did the math, but there are only 5 attribute points and 1350 experience points! That's too little, isn't it......

Of course, if the relay race can break the world record, it should be able to gain 450 more experience points. However, this is only 1800 points! Alas...... Sure enough, the more you get to the end, the less powerful the system reward becomes!

However, this World Championships will also be his last chance to win a prize in track and field. Even if it's a reward with no experience points, you have to fight for those 5 attribute points!

As for whether he can break the world record in the relay race, it can only be seen by the performance of his teammates this time!

……

A few days later, the athletes of the national track and field team who participated in the World Championships also came to report. Guo Zizhao also joined with everyone.

At this year's World Championships in Athletics, most of the Chinese team is still dominated by those old faces who went to the Athens Olympics last year, but in order to train talents for the Beijing Olympics three years later, there are also many new team members in individual events.

In the men's sprint team, there are also two old teammates that Guo Zizhao is familiar with are missing.

Chen Yanhao, the former "Asian hurdler king", chose to retire at the beginning of this year. This incident also made Guo Zizhao sigh for a while, this is the big brother that Guo Zizhao respects very much! After Brother Chen retired, Guo Zizhao also specially invited Chen Yanhao to come to his house to play for several days.

Brother Chen is 33 years old this year, and because of physical reasons last year, he basically did not participate in any international competitions except for the Olympic Games. And this year, I feel like I'm about to run out of time.

Today, the Chinese men's 110-meter hurdles event can be regarded as a talent generation. In addition to Guo Zizhao, Liu Feifei and Shi Dongpeng have also grown into the world's top short span masters.

In this year's domestic arena, three young players Ji Weiwei, Wu Youjia and Xing Yanan successfully crossed the 13.55 seconds mark and reached the A standard of this World Championships. It's just that their current strength is still too far behind Guo Zizhao and the three, and it is estimated that they will have to train in the international arena for a few more years.

Even so, Chen Yanhao was greatly gratified. Therefore, this veteran, who has been fighting for more than ten years, finally chose to retire with confidence and became an ordinary track and field coach of the Modu team.

And another veteran who disappeared is Shen Yunbao!
