Chapter 38: Let the Shot Put Fly a Little Longer!
At ten o'clock in the morning, the highlight of this Universiade, the shot put final of the field competition, was held in the Western State Provincial Gymnasium.
The stadium, which can accommodate 100,000 spectators, was packed, and thousands of reporters from home and abroad seized the favorable terrain to report and shoot, and dignitaries from more than 10 national departments and ministries and states sat in front of the main stage and talked and laughed.
As the honorary president of the event, Zhong Wushu sat in the center of the stage, a mysterious guest old man sat next to him, and his granddaughter Qin Shishi sat on the other side.
Nearly 100,000 enthusiastic fans of Jiang Xiaoliu are waving their flags and shouting, and countless police officers are maintaining order everywhere.
The welcome song sounded, and on the green grass field, the officials of the Universiade Organizing Committee slowly came.
With smiles on their faces, these well-suited officials waved their hands to signal to the crowd that if Jiang Xiaoliu hadn't become popular all over the world, they would never have experienced a big scene of being watched by 100,000 people in their lives.
The president of the organizing committee of the event spoke, and the president spoke enthusiastically for a while, all of which were full of official words, which made the audience drowsy.
When the president was about to continue speaking, finally an audience member couldn't help but shout out!
Immediately after, Zhang Yongjian's deep shout came from the gymnasium: "Roll the calf, we came to see Jiang Xiaoliu win gold, what kind of heat is Nima's rubbing here!" ”
There was laughter at the scene, and everyone shouted to get out, which made the chairman look embarrassed, so he could only end his speech hastily and lead a group of officials back to the main table.
A few minutes later, the entrance ceremony for the athletes of the shot put final began.
Due to the voluntary withdrawal of the top six in the preliminaries, only Jiang Xiaoliu, who ranked seventh in the preliminaries, and the athletes who ranked eighth in the preliminaries, were left in the finals.
"Audience friends, the athlete who is now entering the competition is Zeng Shunyu, who is 20 years old this year, and is the third athlete to participate in four or more events in this Universiade in addition to Kaijiang Xiaoliu and Ye Bufan, Zeng Shunyu participated in a total of six events."
With the introduction of the on-site announcer, it attracted the curiosity of the audience, after all, the athlete participated in six events, and this alone is the most important in this Universiade.
Under the gaze of 100,000 people, Zeng Shunyu, who is 1.7 meters tall, stepped onto the field, he was thin, had a flat head, and had a dark complexion.
In the face of many audiences, Zeng Shunyu didn't look nervous at all, a pair of bright eyes didn't look around, his gaze only stayed in front.
"Dean Su, Zeng Shunyu's courageous momentum is worthy of respect!"
At Zeng Shunyu's rear athlete's passage, Jiang Xiaoliu praised the only opponent in this morning's game.
He glanced at Su Yunyan, who was standing beside him, Dean Su was wearing the school's work uniform this morning, and his beautiful figure was really pleasing to the eye.
Su Yunyan held a stack of materials in his hand, looked at it for a while, and said: "Zeng Shunyu's family is poor, his parents died early, he raised his sister with leukemia alone, in order to live, Zeng Shunyu learned to be strong and independent very early. At the moment, Zeng Shunyu had to sign up for six competitions in order to raise 700,000 yuan for his sister's surgery. ”
After a pause, Su Yunyan continued: "As long as Zeng Shunyu can win the gold medal in any competition, the Linshi Municipal Government will award a bonus of 800,000 yuan, which is the motivation for Zeng Shunyu to participate." ”
"So, Zeng Shunyu has won a gold medal?"
Jiang Xiaoliu sighed when he heard it.
He was an orphan, and his family was also poor before he met Ling'er, so Jiang Xiaoliu naturally understood Zeng Shunyu's hardships.
Zeng Shunyu did not win gold, and although he entered the finals in all five competitions he participated in, none of them made it to the top three. This morning's shot put was his last. Su Yunyan glanced at Zeng Shunyu who was waiting in the venue.
Before Jiang Xiaoliu could speak, Wu Qian on the side opened his mouth.
"I said Xiaoliu, you must not be soft-hearted, don't think about releasing water to Zeng Shunyu. With so many leaders and viewers present today, and the world is broadcasting live from all over the world, this game is related to the reputation of our Xihe City, as well as the glory of Dean Su and you, and you must not use compassion to play negatively. ”
After Wu Qian finished speaking worriedly, she didn't forget to pull Su Yunyan, and motioned for Su Yunyan to also open her mouth to remind Jiang Xiaoliu.
Su Yunyan smiled bitterly, she had been in contact with Jiang Xiaoliu during this time, and she had fully understood Jiang Xiaoliu's temperament, if Jiang Xiaoliu really wanted to sympathize with Zeng Shunyu and release water in the game, she Su Yunyan would not be able to persuade her.
On the contrary, if you want to forcibly let Jiang Xiaoliu release water in the game, absolutely no one can do it!
"Director Wu, don't worry, one yard is one yard, I respect my opponent Zeng Shunyu, and I also respect the event and the competition system."
Jiang Xiaoliu's words immediately reassured Wu Qian.
Next, Jiang Xiaoliu made a grand appearance in the cheers, and there was no element of showing off when he appeared, still covering his heart with his right hand in a low-key manner, and slightly bent down to thank all the supporters.
Jiang Xiaoliu walked around the field for a week and walked to Zeng Shunyu's side, and he didn't forget to give the other party a friendly smile.
Zeng Shunyu was also quite kind, nodded in gratitude and smiled, and said: "Classmate Jiang, I will not give up any competition, even if you are invincible, I will still persevere to the end." Hopefully, you don't dislike me as your only opponent in the game. ”
Jiang Xiaoliu's admiring gaze couldn't be hidden, and he smiled and said: "Classmate Zeng, friendship first, competition second, for the spirit of fair and just sports competition, I will go all out, and please spare no effort to participate." ”
Zeng Shunyu snorted, the two looked at each other, smiled at each other kindly, and stretched out their hands to shake it.
"Audience friends, you saw Zeng Shunyu and Jiang Xiaoliu's eyes looking at each other, after their sympathetic handshake, the tense atmosphere suddenly escalated, everyone, now Zeng Shunyu took the lead in throwing the shot put......"
The on-site announcer turned on the commentary mode: "Alas, it's a pity that Zeng Shunyu's first shot was only 19.12 meters, which is a lot different from the world record of 23.12 meters, but we should still give Zeng Shunyu applause, and it is worthy of respect to have the courage to stand in front of Jiang Xiaoliu to compete!" ”
The audience was indeed well-intentioned, and soon there was warm applause.
Zeng Shunyu stepped aside and waited for the next round to play.
Jiang Xiaoliu stood in front of the throwing line, and in the thunderous applause of the audience, he held the shot put, calmed down, and warmed up before the throwing with a serious expression, which was the first time he was so serious in the game.
Because, Jiang Xiaoliu promised Zeng Shunyu, he will go all out, this is absolute respect for Zeng Shunyu!
Everyone's emotions were instantly mobilized, and all the audience stood up and stared, and the photographic equipment of thousands of reporters was all aimed at Jiang Xiaoliu.
With the referee's command, Jiang Xiaoliu threw accurately, his right hand shook his arm, and he shouted out in his mouth!
Sou!
The lead ball tore through the air, and only a minimalist sound broke through the air.
Without any shocking sensation in the previous three throws, in the eyes of 100,000 people, the shot put ball thrown by Jiang Xiaoliu disappeared in the air without a trace in the blink of an eye at a speed as fast as lightning.
", the shot put is gone, was it thrown into space by Jiang Xiaoliu?"
"Am I blind, I use a high-powered telescope, I just want to see the specific whereabouts of the shot put in the game, why didn't I see anything!"
"Damn, everyone, look, the electronic tester shows no results!"
The eyes of everyone at the scene instantly shifted to the monitor: "Lost the flight trajectory of the shot put, this throw has no results!" ”
In the next second, the audience felt fooled, and tens of thousands of people began to shout black whistle black whistle.
They are Jiang Xiaoliu's iron fans, and they definitely don't believe that Jiang Xiaoliu has no results, and some angry people pick up the items in their hands and throw them at the leaders of the main/table.
The leaders in front of the main stage screamed, the inspectors rushed over to maintain order, and the reporters also rushed to take pictures to report first, and the stadium soon fell into chaos, and more radicals began to prepare to light the flags they brought.
"Audience friends, please be calm and let the shot put fly for a while!"
At this critical moment, Jiang Xiaoliu in the field walked to the microphone, he looked up at the air, and said calmly: "This is a fair and fair game, there is no black whistle, please take a look, what fell, isn't that the shot put I thrown?" ”
With Jiang Xiaoliu's words, the restless 100,000 people instantly quieted down, and everyone's eyes were uniformly cast into the air.
I don't know when, under the visibility, a shot put ball appeared in the air from the perspective of everyone seeing.
The shot put fell heavily in the middle of the green grass in the gymnasium with a striking and graceful arc, a gravitational acceleration of the falling body, and a rolling roar.
Boom Boom!
To the great shock of the audience, the lead ball fell into the ground after smashing, and the huge impact force set off a roar in the ground, as if a drilling rig head continued to drill underground.
A full five seconds passed, and the roar under the ground stopped, and then I saw the lead ball hit the ground and smashed out of the huge hole, which was already a square circle!
Jiang Xiaoliu's throw broke through the invisible clouds and fell like a meteorite hitting the ground.
it!
This scene made the 100,000 people present open their mouths in shock.
Even Zhong Wudi, who was originally sitting firmly on the main/table, couldn't help but clap his knees at that moment.
