Sprint: This champion is a bit weird

Chapter 165 Red lightning pierced the night sky of Doha!

After the game, Wen Hao was once again sought after by media reporters as expected.

Generally speaking, the popularity of the Asian Games is limited to Asia, and reports from various countries are mainly focused on their own athletes. Unless athletes in other sports have achieved huge breakthroughs, they will rarely take the initiative to report.

Different sports will also have very different performances in the focus of media reports because of their own publicity attributes.

Just like Liu Xiang and Koji Murofushi, who are both Olympic champions, even before Liu Xiang broke the world record, his influence in Asia far exceeded that of Koji Murofushi.

The reason why Liu Xiang's influence is so widespread is not only that he is backed by China, the world's most populous country, but also because his 110-meter hurdles event has more publicity properties than the hammer throw event.

The publicity attributes of the 200-meter project are also not as good as those of the 100-meter project. It can even be said to be far different.

The attention and popularity Wen Hao received after this 200-meter race far exceeded the treatment enjoyed by any previous Asian Games 200-meter champion.

First, during the game, his performance was really amazing, and the scene where the gun was pointed at Shinji Takahira at the end was also very effective.

Second, he had already accumulated a sufficient number of fans and social attention before the Asian Games through his stunning performance time and time again and his best-selling performance in the pop music market.

Otherwise, just based on this time of 20 seconds and 31 seconds, even though it was run in the preliminaries, it is still too far away to arouse an enthusiastic response.

If nothing else goes wrong, Wen Hao may be more popular than Liu Xiang for the first time in the track and field events of this Asian Games.

Liu Xiang is currently in the stage of major technical changes. The Asian Games is a testing ground for him to verify the feasibility of new technologies. In addition, the intensity of winter training has not been increased. Although winning the championship will definitely be easy, it will definitely be Can't get very good results.

If you run a time of 13 seconds or more like Yuan Shikong, the publicity intensity cannot be compared with Wen Hao's 1 seconds to win the 9 meters.

"What happened during the race? It was a false start and a false start. This is not like your style."

After Wen Hao changed clothes and came out of the locker room, Li Qing was already waiting in the lounge. Before he could sit down and take a sip of water, he directly asked about the situation during the game.

It has been over a year since he officially coached Wen Hao. What happened with the shot just now has never been seen by Li Qing in daily training, not to mention in previous games.

There is no problem with the starting block, there is no problem with the referee's starting process, and there is no interference from the players next to him or the audience, then it means that the problem lies with him.

Although he still won in the end, and he won in such a beautiful way, it caused a sensation in the audience and ignited the excitement of watching the game.

But Li Qing doesn't care about this. What he cares about is whether Wen Hao was injured because of this. What he cares about is why this situation occurred and how to avoid this situation in the future.

"Nothing, just"

Wen Hao explained truthfully.

It sounds a bit embarrassing to be frightened by ants that suddenly crawled on your hands, but you must know that at that moment, as a competitive sports player, all his attention is on listening to the gun, and any disturbance from the outside may cause Influence.

As for the mistake in starting after firing the gun for the second time, it was mainly due to his lack of competition experience and his mentality at the time was somewhat affected by himself.

There is nothing to say about such mistakes in the game. After all, Wenhao is a human being, not a machine. It is impossible to maintain a perfect state all the time and never make mistakes.

To deal with this situation, the only thing that can be done is to add mentality training to the training, but it is hard to say how effective it will be. Mainly, Li Qing has always felt that Wen Hao has always had a good mentality.

Li Qing thought deeply for a while and said: "This kind of situation has never happened before. In fact, it is a good thing that it happened now. If we switch to the finals and face Shingo Sutsutsu, who is much stronger than Shinji Gaohei, maybe you I’m about to give up the gold medal.”

"Learn from the past and learn from others. With this experience, you will be able to deal with this situation calmly in the future."

After communicating with Wen Hao, Li Qing took him to Dr. Qi Dianwu, the team doctor of the track and field team, to determine whether Wen Hao's starting mistake during the game caused sports injuries.

"Well, there's no problem. The young man is healthy. This ankle is as tough as a steel plate. It should have just missed the ball during the game."

After an inspection, team doctor Qi Dianwu smiled, put down Wen Hao's ankle, and gave a reply that reassured Li Qing.

Qi Dianwu was hired by the national track and field team in 2004. Since his appointment for more than two years, he has helped many national team athletes solve muscle and bone injuries. With his words, Li Qing felt relieved.

"Excuse me, Mr. Qi!" Seeing that the examination was over, Wen Hao couldn't wait to put on his shoes and socks and prepare to leave. He asked Li Qing: "Coach, are you done? I'm going to eat when you're done. I'm hungry. All."

Having been with "this brat" for so long, Li Qing had already known what was in his mind, so he waved his hand in disgust: "Go, go find your little South Korean girlfriend!"

Wen Hao grabbed his bag and ran away. When he came to the door, he turned around and explained: "Coach, believe me, Xu Xiaoyuan and I are really just friends."

What responded to him was a slipper thrown away.

December 12 is the penultimate competition day of the track and field events at the Doha Asian Games.

今夜的赛程非常刺激，阿斯拜尔体育场将先后进行女子三级跳、男子铅球、女子5000米、男子800米、女子铁饼、男子十项全能、女子200米、男子200米项目的争夺，总共决出8枚金牌！

At 17:15 Doha time, the men’s 4×100m preliminaries took the lead.

Since both Wen Hao and Yang Yaozu had to participate in the 200-meter final, and the time was only 1 hour apart, the lineup sent by the Chinese men's 4×100-meter relay team this time was: Wen Yongyi, Hu Kai, Pang Guibin, and Liang Jiahong.

The preliminaries are not difficult for the Chinese relay team. Although not all the main players are participating, Hu Kai in this time and space is much stronger than in the previous life, and Liang Jiahong and the other three are also slightly better than in the original time and space.

In the original time and space, the Chinese relay team finally only won a bronze medal. There were many reasons for losing to the Thai team and the Neon team, including lack of strength, injuries, and insufficient tacit understanding.

Anyway, in this time and space, the physical health of the team members has been maintained well, and their personal abilities are stronger than in the original time and space. Even if the running-in time is only one month, resulting in a lack of tacit understanding, they will definitely be able to cope with the preliminaries.

38秒95，中国队最终跑出了预赛的最佳成绩，比霓虹队的39秒10、泰国队的39秒22都强了不少。

However, it is worth noting that the Neon team is not playing with all the main players. The veteran Nobuharu Asahara is replacing Shingo Sutsutsu as the second team member, and the player who replaces Shinji Takahira as the third team player is a player Fumho cannot name.

Looking at it this way, the strength of the Neon Team is indeed worthy of vigilance!

At 18:30 Doha time, the men’s 200m final officially kicked off.

On the field, after making preparations for the competition, the eight finalists stood behind the starting blocks and waited for the introduction session.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the upcoming event in the stadium is the men's 200m final. Before the competition, please allow me to introduce the eight contestants, track 1.』

As the camera switched, the host of the conference introduced the eight players on the field one by one through the broadcast.

Compared with the grand occasion on the night of the 9th, the Asbel Stadium tonight seemed less lively, and empty seats were vaguely visible in the stands.

In today's track and field competition, Qatar's performance was very poor, with only one bronze medal won. Therefore, the Qatari people who did not pay much attention to track and field sports had even less desire to watch the game.

However, this will not affect the progress of the competition. Even before the men's 200-meter final officially begins, the live TV ratings in many Asian countries have reached a new high for the event.

Lane 1, Saudi Arabia, Adel Asseri, personal best time of 21 seconds.

Lane 2, Qatar, Omar Elhaj, personal best time of 21 seconds.

Lane 3, Kuwait, Fawzi al-Shammari, personal best time of 20 seconds.

Lane 4, China, Yang Yaozu, personal best time 20 seconds.

Lane 5, China, Wen Hao, personal best time 19 seconds.

Lane 6, Neon, continued by Shenwu, with a personal best time of 20 seconds.

Lane 7, Neon, Gao Ping Shenshi, personal best time of 20 seconds.

Lane 8, Saudi Arabia, Hamdan Bish, personal best time of 20 seconds.

This is the final lineup for the men's 200 meters at the Doha Asian Games.

Frankly speaking, after reading the list information, Wen Hao's first reaction in his mind was: If the masters from China and Neon were gathered together to compete in a 200-meter race, it would be more exciting than the Asian Games.

This is not an exaggeration, it is a fact. Although overall, China's men's 200-meter level is worse than Neon, but when compared with other Asian countries or regions, it is still more than enough.

Unless, Türkiye is willing to participate in the Asian Games.

Following the introduction by the host of the conference and the commentators of each TV station, each contestant received varying degrees of cheers from the audience.

When Wen Hao was introduced, the response was the most enthusiastic. Even the host player Omar Elhaj could not match the popularity.

This phenomenon is normal. Qatari people are not very interested in track and field sports. Tonight, many Qatari people left the venue early. The largest number of spectators were Chinese, followed by neon people, and then it was the turn of the Qataris. and other countries.

In contrast, Omar Elhaj is an unknown athlete, and although Wen Hao's status in the field of track and field is still a bit lower, his popularity in Asia is no less than that of Liu Xiang.

Most of the Qatari people present have heard of Wen Hao's reputation, but they don't know who Omar Elhaj is.

"On Your Marks!"

Wen Hao walked to the starting line and squatted down, stepping on the starting block with both feet. In the process of adjusting, he crushed an ant that broke into his track.

Although he was a little ruthless, he really didn't want to be frightened by this little thing anymore.

Sutsugo Shingo, who is in lane 6, is already waiting on the starting block.

As the king of the 200-meter event in Asia, Sutsugo Shingo has another characteristic besides his strong strength, that is, his two starting blocks are very close to each other.

Generally speaking, in order to make the athlete's starting push and stretch process more complete, the two footrests of the starting device usually need to be separated by a certain distance. This distance is usually between 0.5 and 1 sole of the foot.

As for Sutsu Shingo, the distance between his two starting blocks may not even be a quarter of the length of the soles of his feet, and they are almost even.

No one knows why he is so unique, and it can even be said that it is completely unconventional in kinematics. But even if it is "unreasonable", Shingo Suetsugu was once the dominant sprinter in Asia.

To exist is to be reasonable.

"Set——"

After repeated reminders from the host, the stadium was so quiet that the starter's voice was transmitted very clearly in the stadium, and the eight players on the field quickly took the starting position.

The short wait of about two seconds seems to be so long at this moment. This is how humans perceive the world when they are fully devoted to something.

"Snapped--!"

A crisp electronic gunshot came from the small speaker behind the players, like a thunder exploding in their ears!

Almost instantly, the players' feet suddenly stepped on the starting blocks, and their bodies shot forward like arrows from the string.

At the same time, the stadium, which was originally quiet in order to create a starting environment for the players, immediately started to boil with the sound of the starting gun and the uniform start of the players.

On a standard track and field, the combination of two curves forms a standard circle. Running on this curve with a constant arc requires constant adjustment of the body's technical movements and resistance to centripetal force all the time.

Before this year's Shijiazhuang Championships, Wen Hao had never run the 200-meter event at any level of competition. The implementation of the concurrent event plan was only proposed by Li Qing during spring training.

During the training, Li Qing did not arrange too many targeted skill training for Wenhao in the 200m. Instead, he hoped to improve Wenhao's competitiveness in the 200m event by adding the 100m event that pursues speed and endurance more.

This direction is undoubtedly successful and has turned Wen Hao into a world-class 100-meter athlete with excellent late-range speed and endurance.

Compared with the level of the 100-meter event, Wen Hao's 200-meter event was indeed lower in height due to the constraints of the curve.

He ranks tied for 100th in history in the 16 meters, but only tied for 200th in the 30 meters.

If compared with 200-meter masters of the same level, his cornering ability should be much inferior.

But since the opponent this time is Suetsugu Shingo, it's completely different.

As the former Asian 200-meter king, Sutsugo Shingo's running style is also a late-stroke type, and his acceleration ability at the start of corners is not outstanding compared to players of the same level.

Chase!

As long as we can catch up with Shingo Suetsugu before exiting the corner, victory is within our grasp!

On the track, Wen Hao methodically accelerated the curves. The process was almost the same as the 100-meter event. He accelerated all the way to 60 meters before reaching his maximum speed range.

但和100米项目不同的是，为了克服弯道的向心力影响，他的60~70米用时只达到了0.86秒，比100米的最佳数据要低了0.02。

After entering the extreme speed state, the explosive energy supply of the phosphagen system declines rapidly, and the glycolysis system takes over the energy supply banner. Although the functional efficiency is not as good as that of the phosphagen system, it lasts longer and can be used at full output. Guaranteed to last until the moment you cross the finish line.

Compared with Sutsu Shingo, Wenhao's startup acceleration ability is not superior, but his top speed ability is stronger.

The higher top speed also means that after entering the slowdown stage, as long as Wenhao's speed endurance is no worse than that of Sutsu Shingo, and as long as the distance is long enough, he will definitely be able to catch up with him and surpass him!

After 60 meters, you can clearly see that Wenhao on the track is chasing Shingo Sutsutsu on the outer lane at a faster speed.

70 meters, 80 meters, 90 meters.

100 meters!

In this transitional area between the curve and the straight, the number of forward extensions gradually approaches zero, which is also the moment that best reflects the performance of the players in the curve!

After seeing clearly the situation on the field, the Chinese audience present and Wen Hao's foreign fans were all in high spirits and cheered vigorously.

The neon audience at the scene was completely worried, feeling anxious in their hearts, and the cheers and cheers in their mouths also had a hint of excitement as if they were about to cry.

On the 5th and 6th lanes on the field, Fumho and Suetsugu Shingo's positions were completely equal at this time. They entered the straight lanes at the same time!

As for the 4th and 7th lanes on the inside and outside, there is also a very small gap between Yang Yaozu and Gaoping Shenshi, which shows that their cornering performance is also very close.

Next, it’s time to fight with the bayonet on the straight road!

The deafening cheers for everyone were beating in the hearts of the players like drums at this moment.

On the straight, Wen Hao swung his strong arms rapidly, and his legs strode forward at the same frequency, fully enjoying the smooth running feeling after turning into the straight.

Although at this stage, his speed is inevitably declining, the speed reduction every 10 meters is only 0.01.

From 100 to 150 meters, his speed reduction will not exceed 4.5%!

Higher top speed, lower deceleration!

In the first half of the straight, the gap quickly widened!

Going hand in hand, keeping pace with each other?

No, it’s Yiqi Juechen!

After entering the straight track, Wen Hao was like an unstoppable steel behemoth, stepping on meteors and turning into a ball of red flames, running at high speed under the gaze of thousands of eyes.

The opponents behind him were pushed further and further away by him. Even Shingo Suetsugu, who once dominated Asia, his light became dimmed in front of this rising star.

But the strange thing is that compared to the neon people in the stands and in front of the TV who have filled their chests with grief and anger, Sutsu Shingo's eyes when he looked at Wen Hao were calm, and seemed to contain a hint of relief.

150 meters, 160 meters, 170 meters.

As he was getting closer and closer to the finish line, the arrival of his physical limit seemed to put a pair of heavy shackles on his feet. It was no longer possible to lift his knees and move his hips forward as easily as before.

In order to resist the negative state after the body reached the limit, Wen Hao had to swing his arms harder and push back harder, hoping to offset the speed loss caused by the force exerted on the front side in the limit state.

But even so, the pace that was so fast that he could only see the afterimage continued to decrease. For this reason, he could only subconsciously take long strides and try his best to hit the finish line that was so close at hand!

180 meters, 190 meters, 195 meters.

Wen Hao, who was far ahead in first place, had already widened the gap like a chasm that made other players despair. Victory was already within grasp!

The body presses forward hard and hits the finish line that has been drawn!

The timer stops beating,

The crossing score is clearly shown - 19.88!

For a moment, the entire audience burst into applause, and thunderous cheers soared into the sky!

New Asian record!

Wen Hao refreshed his own Asian record of 19 seconds!

19 second 88!

Boom——!

There was a thunder in the sky, covered by dark clouds, and a bolt of lightning pierced the night sky in Doha.

Not long after, sweet rain and dew fell from the sky, bringing vitality to this land that had been dry all year round.
