Sprint: This champion is a bit weird

Chapter 220 Tonight, I will become the king!
"CCTV, CCTV, good evening to all viewers!" The much-anticipated men's 2007-meter flying contest at the 100 Osaka World Athletics Championships is about to begin. I am the commentator Yang Jian, and I will continue to give you live commentary. 』

"Today's world men's 100-meter event has formed a three-legged trend. For world record holder Wen Hao, this game is a crucial battle for him to move towards the Hall of Honor. It is also a battle for former world record holder Asafa Powell to regain his honor and prove himself, and he is also the United States Champion. Tyson Gay defends USA Track and Field supremacy. 』

"With three pillars standing against each other and surrounded by heroes, we will wait and see which side can win the gold medal in this new era."

On the other side, in order to warm up this unprecedentedly popular 200-meter flying contest, NBC even invited American track and field legend Michael Johnson, the double world record holder of 400 meters and meters, to the scene.

Tom Hanks took the lead in starting the topic: "Who will become the new men's 100-meter world champion? After two hours of waiting, we can finally witness this question with our own eyes!"

Ato Bolton responded: "Yes Tom! The world has been debating this issue for a long time. Some people firmly believe that Tyson Gay will defend the honor of the United States. Some people are sure that Asafa Powell will return as the king. Some people are also looking forward to Wen Hao." Can continue to create miracles of red lightning!”

“没错阿托，但还是那句话——冠军只能有一个！泰森·盖伊个人最佳9秒84，阿萨法·鲍威尔个人最佳9秒77，还有个人最佳9秒76的中国小子文浩。”

Ato Bolton changed the subject: "But tonight, no matter what results they have run in the past, whether they have a world record, or how many consecutive victories they have maintained on the field, as long as they stand on the stage of the World Championships, Everything will start from scratch!”

"Whether it is these three strong men or the other five athletes who will stand on the final stage together, in addition to fighting for their dreams and the honor of their motherland, they also represent all mankind, and like their predecessors, they are fighting for New speed limit challenge!"

Tom Hanks followed Art Bolton's words and pointed sideways: "Just like Michael Johnson next to me!"

After a few words of interaction, when the two commentators asked who had a better chance of winning, Michael Johnson smiled and replied:

"Until now, although Tyson Gay has said a lot of harsh words in interviews, if he wants to fulfill his pre-match promise, then he must work harder, because Wen Hao is really Very strong."

"This Chinese kid easily ran 9 seconds in the semi-finals when there was almost no wind. He gave me the feeling of being at ease. He gave me the feeling that he was like Maurice Green at his peak. Same."

"As early as a month ago, Wen Hao set a new world record and became the fastest flying man in history. I hate to say that the United States may lose the men's 100-meter gold medal, but it will be difficult for Guy to win the championship. You can see it in front of you, he does have a chance of winning, in my opinion it is only about 30%, less than 40%."

Hanks and Bolton didn't expect Johnson's views to be so "fair". After all, until now, although Wen Hao's support rate is definitely far ahead, most experts and top practitioners still think that Tyson Gay's The chance of winning is at least 40%.

"So, Johnson, you think the winner of this game will be Wen Hao, right?"

"No, no, no, I just analyzed the odds of winning between Guy and Wen Hao." Michael Johnson shook his head and said with a smile: "Actually, I am more optimistic about Asafa Powell in this game."

"As a runner who once stood at the top of the world, judging from my professional experience, Wen Hao or Gay's status came out too early. They had already made extremely bright achievements in the competition between May and June. Although the performance of the eyes is good, I am temporarily skeptical whether that fiery state can be perfectly continued to this day."

"As for Asafa Powell, his competitive state was affected by injuries at the beginning of the season, but it is obvious that as the World Championships approached and the injuries gradually improved, his competitive state gradually improved. Got it back."

"As a super strong man who has run 9 seconds three times, I believe that if Asafa Powell can fully display his own strength, he will be more competitive for gold medals than Wenhao and Gay."

In the Changju Land Arena, a full 5 spectators from all continents and countries around the world are waiting to watch, and commentators and guests from major TV stations are also preparing for the upcoming 6-meter trapeze battle. Warming up before the game.

All kinds of predictions and analyzes on the results of the competition and the performance of the players are all fascinating.

Who will be the king in Osaka tonight? !
When a beautiful volunteer in uniform walked into the stadium holding a sign with [Men's 100 Metres Final] printed on it, the stadium immediately burst into cheers.

Behind the beautiful volunteer are the stars of tonight's Osaka World Championships.

In particular, the three in the middle represent the highest level athletes in the 100-meter competition in the world today, and are the protagonists who have attracted thousands of eyes.

Later, the three of them will compete for the lofty "World Champion" title under the sky of Osaka for the honor of their motherland, and also to prove to the world who is the real king!
When he arrived at the starting preparation area, he put his backpack in the storage box behind the number bench, and after saying hello to the volunteer who was responsible for keeping his belongings, Wen Hao couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Why are all the volunteers for the finals male?
Where is that cute Huya girl in the semifinals? !

Chilling!
Complaints are complaints, but business has not been delayed.

After adjusting the starting block, Wen Hao walked to the starting line, stretched on the spot, and looked around the entire Changju Land Arena.

The number of Chinese spectators present tonight is much larger than expected. Some faint or clear local accents can be heard mixed with the bursts of noise, coupled with the waving five-star red flags. , which makes people feel refreshed.

Young people are in good health. Although he ran a shot of 9 seconds in the semifinals, and although the hot weather in Osaka can consume people's energy, his physical fitness quickly recovered as before.

After the rest, a scientific warm-up lasting for nearly an hour had perfectly activated his muscles and joints.

For tonight's speed showdown, his team has been preparing for almost half a year since the Doha Asian Games.

As for himself, it can be said that he has anticipated such a scenario from the moment he obtained the system. On the surface, this game is related to whether he can firmly sit on the throne of "the world's number one trapeze player". Although he has a world record, if there is no Olympic or World Championship gold medal to back him up, this "world's number one trapeze artist" "The title is always unstable.

Looking deeper, if you can't beat Tyson Gay and Asafa Powell this year, then how can you beat Usain Bolt next year and the year after that?
Therefore, the outcome of this game is crucial to him!
Only if you defeat Asafa Powell and Tyson Gay in tonight's final stage and become the undisputed king of the world's 100 meters, can you talk about the future!
The stadium was buzzing with excitement.

After the test run, Wen Hao returned to the starting preparation area, stood there and closed his eyes, taking a slow and deep breath. A burst of hot air suddenly poured into his body, making his already restless heart even hotter.

His physical fitness has already reached its peak, and his fighting spirit is as high as ever!
At the same time, on the live broadcast of Neon NHK TV station, a table titled "Men's 100m World Record Changes" was generated in the lower left corner.
-
9.86 - Carl Lewis - 1991
9.85 - Leroy Burrell - 1994
9.84 - Donovan Bailey - 1996
9.79 - Maurice Green - 1999
9.78 - Tim Montgomery - 2002
9.77 - Asafa Powell - 2005
9.76——Wen Hao——2007——
"At the beginning of the war, Wenjun actually began to close his eyes and rest his mind. He opened his arms slightly, as if he was feeling the flow of the wind in the stadium, and as if he was welcoming all the eyes focused on him and accepting the world's respect for him. Respect, show your royal demeanor in every move! 』

Wen Hao didn't know that such a simple action of his could lead to a rainbow fart from the NHK television commentator. If he had known about it, perhaps his actions would have been more "meaningful".

Soon, the eight players on the field were ready.

The camera came to the front of the contestants. Starting from the contestants in lane 2, the pre-match introduction session officially arrived. Yang Jian also followed the camera and started the introduction:

"Lane 2, this is Slovenian player Osovnikal, the only white player on the field. His personal best time is 10 seconds 13. In the semi-finals, he advanced to the final with a time of 10 seconds 15. 』

"Lane 3, this is Nigerian star Olusoki Fasouba. He is the African record holder, with a personal best of 9 seconds. 』

『第4道是来自牙买加的名将、前世界纪录保持者——阿萨法·鲍威尔！他是目前世界上最顶级的短跑运动员之一，05~06赛季曾三次跑出过9秒77的超级成绩！』

In the live broadcast of NHK TV station, compared to Osovnikal and Fasuba, Asafa Powell’s introduction information table also has an additional column - "former world record holder".

This is not the first time Asafa Powell has participated in the World Series. In the second round of the Paris World Championships in 2003, he was sent off for jumping the gun. In the 2004 Athens Olympics, he finished fifth due to strength reasons. In 2005, he suffered a groin strain. Withdrew from the World Championships in Helsinki due to injury.

This is his fourth trip to the World Series. It stands to reason that he has experienced so many "failures" and is a former world record holder. He should have accumulated endless anger and fighting spirit in his heart and is ready to deal with it. All powerful enemies are prepared.

But when faced with the introduction by the live host, Asafa Powell kept his head down the entire time, showing no intention of interacting with the audience.

But despite this, the few Jamaicans present who flew thousands of miles to Osaka still cheered him hard to build momentum.

"Lane 5, our country's famous general, world record holder, the red lightning representing the honor of all Asia at this moment - Wen Hao!" 』

The camera turned, and Wen Hao, who had changed his lively and active image in the past, appeared in the camera. There was also an additional logo on his information introduction form, but it was not the "world record holder" opposite Powell, but ——[The fastest man in human history]!
Although he acted very calmly, what he said to the camera next instantly ignited the hearts of the audience at the scene and around the world:
"Are you ready to welcome the new king?"

"Tonight, I will be king!"

Are you ready to meet your new king?
Tonight, I will become a king!
"Lane 6 is this year's U.S. champion Tyson Gay. His personal best time is 9 seconds. Compared to Wen Hao and Powell, Tyson Gay seems to have more responsibilities. , because he needs to continue to defend the American dominance of the men's 84 meters in this arena! 』

Unlike Asafa Powell, who was buried in deep thought, and Wen Hao, who made domineering declarations in front of the camera, Tyson Gay just kept reciting his prayers silently in front of the camera, and simply waved when the host read his name. With a wave of his hand, he completed his appearance mission.

He was almost completely immersed in the upcoming speed war.

"Lane 7 is Derek Atkins from the Bahamas. His personal best time is 9 seconds, and it was set in this year's Rome Diamond League. On this stage, he can be said to be second only to China and the United States. The fourth member of the Big Three. 』

"Lane 8 is Kurandi Maldina from the Netherlands Antilles. His personal best time is 10 seconds, which was set in the semi-finals two hours ago. He is also a very promising athlete. player. 』

"Lane 9 is British athlete Marlon Devonish. He won the relay gold medal at the 04 Athens Olympics. His personal best time is 10 seconds. 』

The sky in Osaka has long been shrouded in night, but this long-standing land arena that accommodates nearly 60,000 people is now brightly lit and as bright as day.

The time has quietly reached 22:20 in the evening, but perhaps because there are too many spectators gathered in the stadium, the temperature is still high.

Living in such a hot and unbearable place, the audience seemed to have never thought about putting away their excited enthusiasm. Even after all the players were introduced, they still shouted and cheered for the players they supported.

Yang Jian, who was in the commentary box, also sighed at this moment:

"Sometimes I suspect that I am in a long dream, because two years ago I was still overjoyed that Hu Kai won the Universiade championship, but at the same time I was also lagging behind Neon and falling behind in China's sprint. Feeling helpless at the international leading level. 』

"Just two years later, tonight in Osaka, Wenhao has become the first Asian athlete to stand on the stage of the men's 100-meter final of the World Athletics Championships. Even before that, he has achieved many achievements, including breaking world records. Feats and miracles. 』

"Next, let's focus on Osaka, Nagai Land Arena, and Wenhao! Let’s look forward to the moment when red lightning creates miracles again! 』

　Running back and forth is a bit tiring.
　　There's only so much tonight, wuwuwu, I'm a waste QAQ
