Chapter 78: The brave wins
So far, only one member of the Chinese track and field delegation has received a drug test, which seems to everyone to be unstoppable. Because he was noticed by the doping testing center, it means that this athlete is either a champion or a record breaker.
Other athletes will also be sampled, but the probability is very small. The reason is very simple, you can't enter the rematch after taking medicine, so what kind of weakness has become!
On Lu Wei's way to the drug test (urine test), Shen Liang ran 10.38 seconds in the race and only ranked 6th in the group and was eliminated. In such a match, he clearly lacks the ability to fight continuously in high-intensity matches.
Nobuharu Asahara, who finished fourth in the group in 10.16 seconds in the semifinals and advanced to the semifinals.
After the first day of competition, Meng Yan successfully entered the semi-finals with a time of 49.66 seconds in the first round of the men's 400m hurdles, and Zhong Minwei also entered the final with a score of 16.69 meters in the men's triple jump qualifying round.
However, in other events, the members of the Huaxia Legion are either not qualified, and even if they do, it is difficult to reach the finals. If there is no strength in track and field, luck basically does not play much role.
On the second day, the Chinese team can be said to have a bad start, in the men's 20km race walking competition, the three participating Chinese team members did not win medals, and the best result of the three team members was nearly 3 minutes behind the bronze medal team.
This result is far from the previous expectations of the track and field team, and before participating in the World Championships, Huaxia has the possibility of hitting the gold medal in this event. After the competition, the mood of the whole delegation was a little low, not only because they did not get the desired position.
The biggest reason is that after the competition, the gap with high-level players is too big, and the race walking event is not as fast as them.
The champion team members basically completed the race in 1 hour and 22 minutes, and among the three Chinese team members, the shortest time was 1 hour and 25 minutes, and the pace of 1000 meters was basically more than 4 minutes, and it basically took about 2 hours for ordinary people to run a 21-kilometer half-marathon.
The difference of 3 minutes means that the distance behind is basically more than 600 meters, and this distance will be circled in the track and field, so the mood of the Chinese delegation is not very good.
At this time, the medal ceremony of the shot put competition gave the entire delegation great comfort, and the appearance of Lu Wei allowed the entire delegation to win an unplanned medal.
There were no finals on the first day of the competition, and the award ceremonies for all the events were held on the second day. Although Lu Wei's appearance was still accompanied by boos, it was also mixed with a lot of cheers.
The current Japanese audience loves and hates Lu Wei, with a clear distinction between love and hate, there are almost no centrists, and the two sides sometimes have quarrels on the field.
On the second day of competition, the most eye-catching race was the men's 100m, and today's race was dominated by athletes who were not in a hurry to compete in the stands, ready to pay attention to Asafah. Powell and Tyson. Guy's rivalry.
In the morning semi-finals, Asafa . Powell was placed in Group 1, while Tyson. Guy was in Group 2. Until the final, these two will definitely not be allowed to meet. The organizing committee of the event has taken great pains to set off the atmosphere of the trapeze battle.
Before the start of the 100-meter race, the two men had already begun a war of words. After Powell broke the 100-meter record with a time of 9.77 seconds throughout the year, he was once praised by the media on the altar, and all kinds of praise and poisoned milk followed.
At that time, many members of the American team were dismissive of the media's pursuit, and many said that he was just lucky, and many people were able to run like this when they were in good shape.
In this year's Golden League Oslo 100m race, Tyson. Guy ran a time of 9.75 seconds in the case of super wind speed, which gave him, who has always been unruly, the capital to compete with Powell.
The media, which has always liked to create contradictions and attracted attention, began to promote the competition for hegemony at this time, and the war of words between the two people became more and more imposing.
Guy said that Powell is an ordinary player who brushes up on his results in small competitions, and he will be strained in the World Series. Powell ridiculed him, saying that Guy was a man like a kite who could only move forward by relying on the wind, and that Guy was an Internet celebrity who took advantage of him to gain popularity.
Now Guy didn't do it, saying that he would kill Powell alone in the World Championships to vent his hatred. Then Powell said he was going to teach Guy to be a man, and the soap opera kept the media and sports enthusiasts busy.
As long as two people participate in the competition, they will spray each other when they are interviewed by the media.
It seems that the two men are also very compatible with the media hype, and in the six months before the World Championships, the two have never competed together. Both sides will deliberately avoid encountering each other, which has whetted the appetite of track and field fans all over the world.
In the morning semi-finals, Powell put almost 10 meters away with a time of 10.08 seconds to finish second in Group 1 with a time of 10.08 seconds. Bahamas player Derek. Atkins looked more serious, overtaking a slowed Powell in the final minute to finish first in the group.
In this group, Asahara's Xuanji finally didn't hold on anymore and won the penultimate place in the group with a score of 10.36 seconds, otherwise it would have created the legend of an inspirational veteran, this is fate.
In the semi-finals of Group 2, Tyson. Guy's time was 10 seconds, and he finished first in the group, and the scene of the two heroes finally had a stage result.
"Do you want to bet on who wins, and if you lose, help others wash their socks for a week!" Shen Liang shouted loudly in the audience.
"You take it easy, there are female team members, no wonder you don't have a girlfriend for this image!" Director Jiang scolded him with a smile, and everyone seemed very excited when the competition came.
"Don't bet with him, he saved more than a dozen pairs of socks without washing, it's too scary!" Zhang Yuanteng assisted beside him.
"Powell must have won! What's the suspense, he is a world record holder, and he can run 9.9 seconds almost every time in this year's competition, Guy is just talking about it, and there is nothing to be afraid of. ”
"Yes, I haven't heard much about him before, he seems to have only appeared in the second half of last year, and I haven't heard of him before."
Listening to everyone's discussions, Lu Wei's eyes never left the arena. He pays close attention to every movement of the two people, and figures out the psychological state of the two people from their body language.
Guy looked very arrogant, looking like he was not afraid of heaven and earth, and he had the meaning of God blocking and killing God. Powell, on the other hand, is much calmer and seems to be very calm.
Lu Wei frowned when he saw Powell's appearance: "There is no murderous aura in his eyes, but his pupils are a little blurred, this guy should be very nervous now." ”
"Lu Wei, you said who can win today, they have no one to bet with me, it's too boring! Alas, tap! Shen Liang walked over and patted Lu Wei on the shoulder. Although Lu Wei didn't look at him, his right hand had already pressed him to the ground again.
"I think it's hard for Powell to play at his normal level today, and Guy can win if he can run out." Lu Wei's eyes were still looking at the runway when he spoke, and the body language of the two people made him very sure of his opinion.
Sure enough, after the start of the race, Guy started strongly, leading the rest of the team in the first 30 meters. Powell didn't fall behind much in the first 30 meters, but probably because of his eagerness to win, his pace was obviously disorganized in the back, and the gap between the two men grew wider, and finally Guy won the championship with a time of 9.85 seconds.
Powell's time was just 9.91 seconds, and he was overtaken by Atkins in the final moments, winning only a bronze medal.
The seemingly invincible god of war was knocked down on the battlefield by another gladiator full of wildness.
