When he first became an athlete, Chen Mingliang had all kinds of fantasies, the biggest of which was that he stood on the podium, and then there would always be a beautiful volunteer who saw his tall, mighty, handsome and handsome side.

Of course, this is just a beautiful imagination.

He has been a basketball player in the meat factory for so many years, and he has not seen any female audience fall in love with him, only those big sisters who can sit on the ground and suck soil look at Chen Mingliang and drool with regret.

Don't really laugh at these fantasies, this is human nature, and both men and women are not exempt from vulgarity.

It's like when you watch a boxing match and you fantasize that you have a card girl, and when you watch a basketball game, you like a cheerleader, these are people you don't get.

However, generally speaking, don't underestimate these volunteers, especially the volunteers of major events, they not only have good faces, but also have good knowledge and literacy.

So, putting away those fancy intestines is the right way.

Of course, Chen Mingliang, as an ace among Chinese athletes, is naturally loved and loved by the volunteers, but unfortunately, he has already become famous, and the two have no idea of breaking up in the short term.

When the track and field competition reaches the third day, there are many competitions on this day, and 6 gold medals will be decided, but for Chen Mingming, in addition to participating in the men's 100m award, he also has a very important competition, that is, the long jump final.

This is an event specially adjusted for him by the organizing committee, and it just so happens that each race is staggered, so that he can fully maintain his physical strength.

The start time of the long jump final is 20:10 in the evening, which started relatively early, and when the competition is over, it is just enough to catch up with the men's 100-meter award ceremony.

Skipping the hustle and bustle of the whole day during the day, the time finally came to night, which was Chen Mingming's big show time.

Why is the word "big show" so awkward, I can always think of female anchors who love to eat yellow eels.

In the preparation area of the long jump athletes, the athletes who participated in the competition all looked at Chen Mingliang with a vigilant face, and they obviously regarded Chen Mingliang as the biggest threat, what did this person do when he came to participate in the long jump.

Of course, there are also some very few athletes who took the initiative to talk to Chen Mingliang, they are Chen Mingliang's loyal fans, and expressed warm congratulations on Chen Mingliang's achievements in the 100 meters.

There are a total of 12 athletes who can advance to the long jump final, but only Chen Mingliang is Chinese, that is, it has expanded to the whole of Asia, and there is only one athlete from Saudi Arabia, whose name is a little domineering, called: Sabi!

The strength of the whole of Asia in track and field is not strong, and the Chinese team is still a general in the Chinese team, at least we can show off our strength in the Asian Games.

Looking at the Chinese track and field world, in the world championships, there are still some athletes who can come out to support the women's events, such as Zheng Fengrong in the early days, Dongfang Shenlu in the middle period, and Xing Huina, Gong Lijiao and others in the current years.

But in the men's event, if a long-distance athlete can enter the final, it will be considered a historical breakthrough, and in the long jump event, Chen Mingliang broke through this time, which is already very commendable.

Chen Mingliang participated in a total of four individual events in this Olympic Games, namely the men's 100m, men's 200m, men's 800m and long jump, the national team set him the goal of winning three gold medals before the game, this pressure is actually very great, but more people think that he can get 4 gold medals or even exceed the 5th gold medal.

However, if you want to win the gold medal in the 4*100m relay, you really have to learn the sportsmanship of the stick country in the 02 World Cup.

However, everyone generally believes that the task of three gold medals should still be relatively easy to complete, and many viewers are even thinking that Chen Mingliang can get the second gold medal today, and then win another one in the 200 meters, as for the 800 meters, who do you love.

If you think so, aren't you going to ignore Usain Bolt, who is practicing 200 meters?

The long jump competition has begun!

After the athlete check-in, Chen Mingliang drew lots to play, and he ranked twelfth, and sure enough, he was fighting at home, and the signing was perfect! Ollie gives.

In fact, the result of this draw must be just some kind of coincidence, the host never admits that they have other moves, and the long jump is different from the rules of other events, that is, the first three jumps will be reordered after the end, so the order of the draw is not particularly significant.

In the official long jump competition, athletes first try to jump 3 times in the order of drawing, and then select the top 8 from these 12 athletes according to their results, and then try 3 more jumps.

In the end, the highest score in these 6 jumps will be used as the final score of the individual, and the ranking will be determined.

At this time, far across the ocean, in the studio of NBC TV in the United States, Mike Powell sat in front of the rostrum as a guest commentator.

That's right, the guest commentator invited by the TV station is not Carl Lewis, who is known as King Carl, but Mike Powell. Although Lewis and Chen Mingliang are more athletic in nature, both sprinting and long jumpers, who makes the long jump world record holder Mike Powell.

With better grades, you will have more say.

Mike Powell used to be a basketball player, but unfortunately, the basketball coach sentenced him to death early, believing that he could not make a breakthrough in basketball, although he also had a vertical jump of more than 1 meter on the spot, so he had to switch to track and field athletes.

Mike Powell lost to Carl Lewis in most competitions, and the world was not optimistic that he could win, but on August 30, 1991, at the Tokyo National Stadium, on the premise that Carl Lewis had jumped 8.91 meters, Mike Powell fought hard, 8.95 meters!

Since then, he has taken a new world record from Beamon since 1968, which he held until 2008.

Today, the 45-year-old Mike Powell is running out of hair, and he is making his way to this Mediterranean middle age, and now he is chatting with the host about the upcoming long jump final.

"Chen is a great athlete, he won the men's 100m dash and now he is challenging for his second gold medal in the long jump, but I don't like him, I prefer Panama's Saratino, who set a new South American record with a fine jump of 8.73m in May this year, while Chen has not competed in the long jump for a long time........"

But the host next to him immediately answered: "But many people think that Chen is the biggest favorite for the long jump championship, and some people even pin their hopes on him to skip the 9-meter mark, as a world record holder, what do you think of this statement?" ”

Mike Powell thought for half a minute before he spoke: "I have to admit that Chan does have a chance to win the championship, but he wants to rush to >>."

[Reading updates load slowly, there are ads, chapters are incomplete, please exit Reading and read!] 】

Hitting the world record, I think it's impossible, although Chen is 25 years old this year is the golden age of athletes, but he doesn't put his focus on the long jump, he jumps farther than others, completely because of good talent, so his starting point is high, which can only cause the initial results to be very good, but if you want to touch the ceiling, it is difficult. ”

The host was excited, "Is it also because of this that Carl Lewis was not able to break the world record?" Do you say that about Chen because he and Carl are more similar? ”

"Yes, on the runway, Lewis is my enemy rather than friend, and I'd love to keep that relationship. But what about 65 consecutive wins, it's not like I broke the world record......"

It turned out to be this what made him haunted.

The live competition has finally begun.

The first to appear was the Greek athlete Tesa Thomas, his results can only be said to be average, belonging to the kind of hard work that is difficult to reach the final, and the first appearance gave him a lot of pressure, therefore, he directly made a mistake, and the first jump did not get results.

Czech athlete Roman Novotny was the second to appear, and he was not a strong athlete either, but he still managed to achieve a result of 7.8m, temporarily ranking first.

Yes, there is an advantage to playing in the field, you can be at the top of the rankings for a short time, even if you only jump 1 meter away, as long as the result is valid, you will still be ranked No. 1 in the world at some point in the Olympics.

The following are Saudi athlete Sabi and Botswana athlete Galenamose appeared one after another, but they were both very nervous and did not play at the level of the qualifying round, and their best score was not yet 7.9m.

World No. 1 Panamanian Saratino made his fifth appearance, and it was finally the turn of the bulls.

Saratino first glanced at Chen Mingming, and then began to run. He is a very steady athlete, although his first is conservative, but the foundation is there, he still jumped 8.10 meters very easily, and this result should not be too stressful to enter the top 8.

And after Salatino, South African athlete Mokoyana and Cuban athlete Cameryo are both strong players, they jumped 8.24 meters and 8.20 meters respectively, which is simply going to explode, Salatino suddenly felt that his first jump was still a little conservative, I didn't expect the usual competitors to be so hot now.

Here are a few unknown players, and it was not until Zimbabwe's Makusa finished the eleventh jump that it was finally Chen Mingliang's turn.

Seeing Chen Mingliang stand up, the enthusiasm of the audience was immediately stimulated, and everyone just wanted to watch his performance.

"Finally ushered in Chen Mingming's appearance, this is his first test jump, and it is also the last jump of the first round of the long jump, and now for Chen Mingming, his first task is to get a guaranteed score to enter the final like Salatino."

Before the host finished speaking, Chen Mingliang began to run, he is not Zhang Guowei, and he doesn't like to interact with the audience with so much work, just greet the audience normally, and the upper body of the actor is easy to ruin his character.

I saw that Chen Mingliang first stepped back and measured his steps, and then began to start with strength, one step, two steps, three steps......

I saw that his speed was getting faster and faster, and it was really pleasing to the eye to watch Chen Mingliang run, or it was worth the long jump to return the ticket price, which was equivalent to watching Chen Mingliang run 6 100-meter races.

Chen Mingming's speed increased to the extreme, but he didn't jump at the starting point, but rushed straight into the bunker, because before he could jump, Chen Mingliang found that his last step had stepped on the line, which was a low-level mistake.

"Oh!"

Tens of thousands of people at the scene jointly issued a sigh of regret, and the spectators who sat far away could not see the game site, but they could watch the big screen, which clearly played back the moment when Chen Mingliang stepped on the line.

"Chen is not a god, he can make mistakes." Saratino's mood suddenly improved a lot, and he was afraid that Chen Mingliang would suddenly jump out of a score of 8.5 meters.

If you don't have a grade, you will be called!

After the first round of jumping, Chen Mingliang tied for the penultimate place with two other brothers and sisters. South Africa's Mokoyana is provisionally ranked first with 8.24m.

At this time, the audience was a little disappointed, both live and in front of the TV, but everyone was also comforting themselves, after all, it was only the first time to try the jump, and there were still two chances.

At the beginning of the second round of the test jump, the first three athletes who appeared were still playing soy sauce, and only the fourth athlete Galenamose played well, he jumped 8.95 meters, but I don't know if he has a chance to advance to the final.

Next, Salatino, who regards Chen Mingliang as his biggest enemy, came out, and his first jump was a bit conservative, but after all, he had achieved results, and he could finally let go of this jump.

Start, run, jump, take off, this series of actions is not bad, the last result, 8.26 meters, stable, the finals are stable.

Among the athletes who appeared next, everyone's score was around 8 meters, and they did not exceed 8.26 meters.

Finally it was Chen Mingliang's turn to appear again, maybe the first one was too excited, this was not a point that Chen Mingliang was familiar with, for this reason, he moved the starting point of his measurement back by 20 cm, thinking that it should be able to be done now.

Seeking stability is not my brother Liang's style, my brother just wants to dance a good result.

"Chen Mingliang is ready, he is going to start again, let's see his jump!"

Chen Mingming, accompanied by the host's commentary, really started his second jump, the speed was very fast, the jump was very high, the air posture was perfect, and the landing point was close to 9 meters.

"Wow!"

There was an exclamation at the scene, this result is probably more than 8.8 meters.

However, the referee raised the red flag regardless of the current affairs, and this jump was also invalid.

"Chen's second jump lost again, he won't be out of the game with three shocks!" The host in the NBC studio exclaimed, while Mike Powell gloated a little.

"The number one favorite may also be out without results, which is very similar to me, I used to jump too aggressively, and often did not get results."

For a top athlete, what everyone wants to see most is nothing more than two situations, one is that he plays awesome and wins the championship with a record result; The other is to play extremely badly and directly encounter elimination.

The domestic audience began to get nervous, and they also hoped that Chen Mingliang could easily win the gold medal, but he didn't expect that he was still ranked first from the bottom after two jumps, and now he is a difficult brother with him.

……

The third round of the competition has finally begun, and for many athletes, this is also their last chance, because after this jump, four athletes will leave the stage and bid farewell to the Olympic Games completely.

For Chen Mingming, this is also his last jump, whether he can continue his dream, it depends on this time.
