Chapter 204: The Only Expectation Left
Li Bin's indifference makes people feel very confident, and when he expresses his goal, it is like talking about an ordinary thing, which makes people feel that he will be able to achieve his goal. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Mature, calm, goal-oriented, and always working hard to achieve it."
This is the media's impression of Li Bin.
There is no doubt that among several athletes, Li Bin is much more mature than Xie Chunfeng and Gu Nana, and the latter two give people the feeling of being a little immature and speak a little untrustworthy.
This may be determined by the environment in which you grew up.
Li Bin is the kind of person who has been characterized since he was a child and will definitely become the successor of his father's industry, even if he joins the national track and field team, he will definitely not go all the way to the black.
The domestic sports environment determines that no matter how much a track and field athlete achieves, after retiring, his income will be greatly reduced, and he is certainly not as good as the boss of a large enterprise, and his income does not represent everything, but it is a Chinese tradition for his son to inherit his father's business, no matter how much Li Bin can achieve in track and field, he will definitely choose to take over his father's industry.
Xie Chunfeng is different from Gu Nana, both of them belong to children who grew up in a family, they have been surrounded by various halos since they were children, they have not experienced strong winds and rains, there is no pressure in life, and their mental maturity is definitely limited.
Of course, this has nothing to do with the capabilities on the project.
In fact, Shen Yang thinks that Xie Chunfeng is the most genius, even if Li Bin and Gu Nana can break the world record in the future, Xie Chunfeng is also the 'most genius', because the projects of the two sides are different.
The results of the Chinese track competition are related to physical fitness, and they are also related to the event.
The explosiveness of the Chinese is difficult to compare with the blacks, so in the sprint event, they are inherently very weak, especially in the 50-meter and 100-meter events, which are difficult to compare with black athletes.
The longer the distance that can be run, the more the advantages of the Chinese can be reflected.
The explosiveness of blacks is good, but the endurance is not necessarily as good as the Chinese, the longer the running, the more endurance support is needed, so China's long-distance running and race walking events can often easily have gold medalists, which has been the case since history.
In the sprint event, for the Chinese, the 400-meter event is definitely easier than the 100-meter, because the 400-meter event not only relies on explosiveness and top speed, but also relies on physical strength and endurance.
This is also the reason why it is easier for Gu Nana and Li Bin to be promoted.
The 100-meter event, which relies solely on explosiveness and speed, is very difficult to compare with black athletes, so the difficulty of Xie Chunfeng to break the world record is much higher than that of Gu Nana and Li Bin, and it is precisely because of this that Shen Yang thinks that Xie Chunfeng is more talented.
In the afternoon, Xie Chunfeng participated in the second round of the preliminaries, that is, the semifinals of the 100-meter race.
This time there is a difference, because of the last round of the run of 10.08 seconds, this result was enough to win the Osaka Athletics Federation Grand Prix in the past, Xie Chunfeng has become a strong contender for the championship of the 100-meter event, and the attention of the media has naturally shifted to Xie Chunfeng.
Among the many expectations, Shen Yang focused on letting Xie Chunfeng adjust his psychological state.
"You're not hitting the world record, you're just trying to run your best, there's nothing to be nervous about, you have to pay attention, just run at the pace of training, and play normally."
Xie Chunfeng kept nodding, and it could be seen that he was still a little nervous.
This time, his performance was unaffected.
In the surprise of the media and the audience, Xie Chunfeng ran out of normal, and he won the first place in the semifinals with a time of ten seconds and one seconds without any suspense, and successfully advanced to the finals.
Of course, the latter is not important.
The result of 10 seconds and 1 seconds is the focus of attention of the media and the audience.
100 meters can run to ten seconds and one seconds, the strength has definitely reached the level of the world's top athletes, even those black world champions, do not dare to say that they can run within ten seconds every time, many times the impact of the first place, it depends on the on-the-spot performance and state, after all, there is only a difference of 0.1 second, 0.2 seconds, the gap is too small, the difference is only a distance of faster stride, or a little faster start, to this stage, the state is more important than personal strength.
After Xie Chunfeng completed the competition, domestic media rushed to report it.
Xinlang Sports released Xie Chunfeng's semi-final results for the first time, titled, "The first person in Chinese sprinting was born!" The time of 10 seconds and 1 shocked the world! ”
Other media also responded immediately, "Xie Chunfeng, the king of Chinese sprinting!" ”
"Chinese sprinting can also compete in the world!"
"We have a future 100m Olympic champion - Xie Chunfeng!"
“……”
As soon as the hot report passed, and at the end of the afternoon race, the media began to summarize the results, and they were surprised to find that "the track and field sprint event was broken three Chinese records in one day!" ”
"The Chinese men's 100 meters, men's 400 meters and women's 400 meters records were all broken in one day, the three players are Xie Chunfeng, Li Bin and Gu Nana, the names of these three athletes are very unfamiliar, but their strength is very strong, Li Bin's results are more than a second faster than the Chinese record, Gu Nana almost broke the world record, 100-meter athlete Xie Chunfeng, almost ran into ten seconds......"
Seeing this news, many netizens couldn't help but think of the news reported by Xianlang Sports before, and several athletes interviewed by the reporter above all said that they wanted to break the record, and after only one day, they did it all.
Many netizens still remember that under that report, it was all criticism and irony, and groups of netizens participated in the discussion, putting many negative comments such as 'arrogance', 'self-righteousness', and 'modesty that don't understand' on the heads of a few 'unknown' athletes.
Turned to now, only a day later, their faces were swollen, and the three athletes all easily broke the Chinese record, only one Xie Chunfeng did not achieve the goal of running within ten seconds, but Xie Chunfeng ran ten seconds and one, and he just said that 'the goal is to run within ten seconds', athletes who can run to ten seconds and one can run into ten seconds as the goal, is there anything unacceptable?
The slots of that news are completely gone, and they have all become commendable.
While many netizens were depressed that they were 'blind', they also immediately changed their attitudes and praised the three athletes.
In fact, Liu Shen is more popular than Xie Chunfeng, because he broke the world record and became a 'national hero'.
Synthesizing Liu Shen, Xie Chunfeng, Gu Nana and Li Bin, many media sighed, "The Osaka Athletics Federation Grand Prix has only been held for one day, and the Chinese sprint team has won an unprecedented 'Grand Slam'!" Three broke the domestic record and one broke the world record, we can expect that at the Athens Olympics, the Chinese sprint will also become one of the important gold medal-winning events! ”
On the first day of competition, the preliminaries of the sprint event were basically over.
Among several athletes, only Gu Nana is left with one round of preliminaries to participate, and the finals of several events are held on the third day.
Shen Yang didn't need to follow the track and field team to the stadium.
Sun Ping arranged for Xie Chunfeng, Liu Shen and other athletes to return to the training ground to make warm-up adjustments, and Shen Yang and Wang Jian went to the training ground together.
It's a day of relaxation.
In the stadium where the game is played, there are always emotional moments, but the day is also exhausting, and it feels relaxing to have a day off in between.
Shen Yang didn't care about others, he slept until nine o'clock before getting up.
When they arrived at the stadium, the athletes had been training for a while, because they didn't need to do any special training, and basically there was no job for Shen Yang, he just came over for a spin.
But that day was completely different.
Most of the reporters went to the stadium to do interviews, but there are still many reporters at the training ground for interviews, yesterday's situation was better, today there are more reporters, for them, to go to the stadium to cover the 'no focus' game, it is better to interview Liu Shen, Xie Chunfeng and others who have just broken the record.
Other coaches have done a good job of communicating with the media, or their style has become 'bigger', and there were reporters who came to interview before, and they wanted to let the athletes show their faces, but now that there are more media reporters, they have begun to be interviewed selectively.
Wang Gang was the only reporter who was qualified to enter the venue at will to shoot and interview, and the other reporters were all refused to be outside the runway.
"This reporter has been interviewing here for the past two days, and other reporters don't even look at it when they pass by. Now that the situation has changed, of course we have also let this reporter interview ......"
Instructor Zhao Yanzhen said eloquently.
Shen Yang couldn't help but give Zhao Yan a thumbs up, the work is to be arranged like this, those reporters who looked down on the 'sprint event' before, saw that there were results, so they came to interview?
Now is the time to let them stand far away, so that the journalists who have always supported them can have the best reporting environment.
Shen Yang and Wang Gang stood together talking and laughing, and asked several athletes to cooperate with the interview and filming work, which made Wang Gang smile, and then Shen Yang said, "Ahem, Wang Gang, the report you send back, you must remember to add the content of the Yangyang Sports Center, focus on the introduction, and add the words of thanks from several athletes." ”
"No problem, Coach Shen, don't worry, our reports have always been factual!"
"That's good."
Next, Wang Gang did a small interview with Shen Yang, and only asked one question, "Coach Shen, so far, the four athletes have all broken records, is your next goal to win the championship?" ”
Wang Gang thought about Shen Yang nodding and admitting it, but what he didn't expect was that Shen Yang shook his head and said, "I don't think the championship of the Osaka Athletics Grand Prix is a big deal, even if the athlete has some accidents in the finals, it doesn't matter if he can't win the championship, because the gold content of the champion in this event is not high, of course, it must be good to win the championship." ”
"In addition, I actually only have the only thing left to look forward to, and that is Xie Chunfeng, I hope that he can play well in the final and really run under ten seconds, which is very helpful for his confidence in the competition, and even in the Olympic Games."
