just to make those dreams come true

Chapter 326

8 month 16 day.

No. 2008 days of the 11 Olympic Games, the second day of the track and field schedule.

Yanjing Bird's Nest National Stadium.

The stadium was brightly lit, noisy, shouting, cheering, and all kinds of cheering slogans filled the sky.

It was already 19:30 in the evening. As the semi-finals of the women's 800-meter competition officially started, the atmosphere of the audience in the stadium became more active.

It's not that Chinese audiences particularly like to watch games without the participation of Chinese people. It's mainly because after this game is over, today's highlight of their concern will be staged.

At 20:05 in the evening, the semi-finals of the men's 100-meter competition, three outstanding athletes from Huaxia will launch an impact on the final.

Under nightfall, the three groups of the women's 800-meter race were already in their last group, and the atmosphere in the stadium became even more lively.After the Olympic track and field competition officially begins, the first small climax is about to come.

All over the country, from this moment on, the eyes of countless people are betting on...

The stadium was full of spectators, and the square outside the stadium was also crowded around the erected big screen.Thousands of spectators who did not buy tickets spontaneously stayed.Looking at the scene on the big screen through an outer wall, I can still hear the enthusiastic sound from the stadium from time to time, which may also be a comfort.

The police and volunteer staff who were temporarily deployed were busy nervously. They were surrounded by heads, small red flags painted with various oil paints, small flags, fluorescent sticks, and various slogans shouted from time to time, which infected them. But it also made them feel nervous.This place has now become a small meeting place.

At the same time, in more parts of the country, people are watching the TV, waiting for the news about today's Olympic Games on TV.

At 19:55 in the evening, on TV, just before the gymnastics competition ended and the interview was cut, the CCTV broadcast signal was interrupted immediately. In a flash, the magnificent Bird's Nest Stadium background appeared.At the same time, the voice of the on-site commentary came through the screen.

"... Audience friends, good evening. The second live broadcast of the track and field competition will start soon. I am the live commentator Yang Jian. It is now 19:55 p.m. Yanjing time. In 10 minutes, the men's 100-meter competition of this Olympic Games will begin. The semi-finals will begin at the Yanjing Bird's Nest National Stadium behind me...

Today, we are honored to have Shen Baochen, a former champion member of the national track and field relay team and coach of the national track and field team, as our guest commentator.Hello, Director Shen! "

"Hello, Teacher Yang, audience friends in front of the TV, hello everyone, I am Shen Bao..."

Shen Bao, who had already grown a mustache, looked a little less aloof and more stable than before. He greeted the audience with a smile through the words of the host.

For a moment, countless Huaxia viewers in front of the TV were a little dazed. Those who had followed track and field experience for a few years couldn't help but think of the former Huaxia Athletics, and the first time Huaxia Athletics was shown to the world.

After a few years, when they saw the members who were the first world relay champions again, they felt a little sad.

Shen Bao, a member of the Huaxia Relay Team, a member of the men's 2003*4m relay champion at the 100 World Championships, and the current sprint coach of the National Track and Field Team.Once one of the outstanding athletes on the rise of Huaxia Athletics.

Not only the audience was a little dazed, including Yang Jian, but after so many years of professional commentary, he continued the next topic without much delay, "Director Shen, today's 16-meter semi-finalists have [-] contestants, veterans, newcomers, Including our three athletes from Huaxia, they are all the top group in the world. Such a top-level duel is rare in the past. In my impression, it seems that it has never happened in modern times... "

"Yeah, it's never happened before!" Shen Huan continued and nodded seriously, "Probably before the 04 Olympics, our national team's coach Lin Mu once told us that the future world sprint world will be turbulent. It was a great era, because at that time he saw that there were many excellent players with potential, who deserved more attention.

"For example, Powell from Jamaica, Tyson Gay from the United States, Gatlin, etc. These athletes have all performed at the top level, including Chinese players Zhao Lin and Shen Huan..."

"Facts have proved that Director Lin's judgment is correct. These athletes have maintained their excellence and discovered their potential!" Yang Jian echoed, and his tone could not help but be filled with admiration.

Shen Bao followed suit and continued to say, "Yes, they have fulfilled all of them. Many people may think that they have talents, and fulfilling their talents is a matter of course. In fact, talents seem to have roots, but they are actually false.

To be outstanding, you need hard guidance from coaches and staff, as well as hard work day after day, year after year, and scientific and reasonable arrangements.The first thing to face is countless boring and lonely..."

"Yes, in sports, athletes are exposed to others, and even win gold and silver, thanks to the dedication of many unknown people, as well as the hard work of the athletes themselves..."

Yang Jianshen nodded in agreement. Just when he was about to continue the topic, the director gave a prompt in the headset, indicating that he was about to cut into the scene.

"...Okay, the semi-final match will start soon..."

The signal was sent to the stadium, and the camera toured the entire scene. The majestic Bird's Nest stadium was surrounded by crowds of people, colorful flags fluttering, and the voice of "Huaxia, come on!" Emotions welled up in my heart.

After a round of parade, the camera finally freezes at the exit of the athlete's channel. As the athletes appear on the field, the louder cheers and din can shake people's hearts trembling through the picture.

The voice of the narrator unconsciously became louder.
"... Now the first group of athletes in the men's 100-meter semi-finals has appeared in the arena. Chinese players Shen Huan and Chen Jianhai are both in this group..."

Yang Jian's voice couldn't help but rise up. It's another competition, or the Olympics, and it's time to reach the final.He couldn't help getting excited.

"... 9 tracks, arranged from 2 to 9. The second track is a player from the Bahamas, Derek Atkins. In the rematch, he successfully advanced to the third place in the group. This is also a relatively powerful men's sprint Contestant. His personal best time is 10 seconds, and this year's best time is 03 seconds;

The third way is the American star Justin Gatlin, who was the champion of the men's 9-meter race in the last Olympic Games. He quickly recovered his competitive state shortly after the ban was lifted this year.This is also his defending battle, his best time is 77 seconds, and this year's best time is 9 seconds;”

Following the camera and the introduction of the contestants hosted by the scene, Yang Jian introduced the contestants of this group one by one. As the guest commentator, Shen Bao sometimes added a few words with relatively professional explanations.The introduction of the contestants for the eight rounds was carried out amidst waves of cheers...

In the fourth track, Mark Burns from Trinidad and Tobago is a strong player. Although he has no champions, he is also a frequent visitor to the competition. His personal best time is 9 seconds, and this year's highest time is 94 seconds.

On the fifth track, St. Kitts and Nevis player Kim Collins, a veteran who has participated in three Olympic Games and three World Championships, is the only world-class player in a Caribbean island country with a population of less than 5. In 2003, he was runner-up in the 9m World Championships, with a personal best of 97 seconds and a best of 10 seconds this year;

The sixth way...

"Sixth way, Chinese player Shen Huan, this is his second Olympic Games, and he successfully reached the finals in the last Olympic Games..."

Yang Jian became excited, and his voice was a little unstoppable during the introduction, getting higher and higher.Counted Shen Huan's various honors and recent achievements.Many people who didn't know about Shen Huan's information were stunned.

It wasn't until the screen had switched to the next athlete that he continued to introduce the seventh one.It was just the contestants in lane seven that made him feel a little more solemn. At the same time, many people at the scene and in front of the TV also felt a little more solemn.

Lane 9, Usain Bolt, at this year's New York Grand Prix, he broke the men's 72-meter world record held by his own athlete with a time of [-] seconds. He is tall, long-legged, and somewhat unnaturally strong. Jamaican black.

The solemn mood was short-lived. Today's Chinese people are not afraid of anyone, nor are they afraid of pursuits and challenges. It has been difficult for us to reach the present moment from entering the Olympics, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

After a brief ups and downs of mood, they cheered and looked at the eighth player, our Chinese athlete, Chen Jianhai, a 28-year-old veteran, one of the heroes of China's rise with full honors.

Ninth Road, America's Davis Barton...

After the CCTV commentary and the on-site host's introduction, the athletes entered the final preparation.At this time, both in front of the TV and the audience couldn't help thinking and analyzing a little more.

Famous generals, veterans, top players, big times, keywords flashed through my mind one by one.They are also looking forward to the upcoming game.

"On your marks!"

Time passed by every minute and every second, and the start signal sounded, and the eight contestants finished their movements, stepped onto the starting block, bent over, and squatted down.

The scene was silent. At this moment, the athletes, those who cared about the athletes, the audience on and off the field, all temporarily put aside their thoughts.

After carefully checking the athlete's positioning posture again, the referee issued a preparatory password after confirming that it was correct.

A few seconds later, there was a gunshot, and the stadium suddenly resumed its hustle and bustle, and it was boiling!
"Game start!"

At the moment when the gunshot rang out, the voice of commentator Yang Jian sounded in front of each TV at the same time.At this moment, Yang Jian's voice was very passionate and clear, but the audience couldn't care less.

The speed of the [-]-meter race was too fast, and they didn't want to relax every bit of energy, their eyes were fixed on the figure moving at high speed in the screen.

Before the starting line, as soon as the gun fired, Chen Huan rushed out like a cheetah.

0.112 seconds,
The real-time starting reaction data quietly appeared on the electronic screen.But no one had time to pay attention. In short, they had already seen with their naked eyes that Shen Huan's start was excellent.

The reaction time is very fast, and the starting speed of the connecting start is also very fast, full of power.The fast and steady pace made his running speed increase at an extremely fast frequency.It took only a few steps to gain some advantages.

Also, there are others who start very fast. Only a little slower than Shen Huan is the American Gatlin, who has always been known for his prudence, and this time the start is very explosive.

He won the Olympic Games in 04 and reached the pinnacle in one fell swoop, but since then, the honors that have been coming are not ideal.Although it is neither good nor bad, it is absolutely top-notch and stable.But the top players who ran out one by one seemed to always overwhelm him in turn.

05 was the year of Jamaica's Asafa Powell. He lost more than he won.

In 06 and 07, it was the year when Zhao Lin and Tyson Gay took turns to sit in the manor. After he lost a few games aggrieved, he was suspended.

When he reappeared, the originally strong one seemed to be still strong, and another rookie appeared again, a big man who could also set a world record in the [-] meters.

In this Olympics, he has to prove that he is not only stable, but also a person who can win in strong dialogue.

Gatlin broke out, but after all, it was the semifinals, so he still kept some.

On the other hand, Usain Bolt's starting reaction is much slower. With his size, it seems slow and normal.Usually people's concept in the routine is that there are very few big men with excellent starting speed.

The start is average, but another rule, the start speed is indeed broken by this alien.Ultra-fast stride frequency, large and powerful stride, after starting, people can feel a sense of impact of speed and strength.

Relying on his long strides and pace rhythm not much inferior to the smaller ones, even if he starts slowly, he is only slightly inferior to the top people.Even though like Gatlin, he kept a lot, within a few steps, he was still ahead of many people, but only a little slower than Shen Huan and a few others.

Ten meters, 20 meters, 30 meters,

When almost all of them pulled up and prepared to enter the high-speed stage on the way, Shen Huan, Gatlin, and Bolt were in the top three positions.Relatively speaking, they run very passionately, but not desperately.

But for other people whose strength is not absolutely top-notch, they don't have any idea of ​​keeping it.

Veteran Collins, who is third in starting reaction, has already shown all his strength.He is 32 years old and this may be his last Olympic Games.He can no longer win honor for his country, and he has a deep sense of reluctance. He hopes to squeeze into the finals this last time.As for winning the medal, he had already given up hope.

Working desperately, he hung tightly behind the top three and was in the fourth position.

Coincidentally, there are many people who think similarly to him.

Atkins, Burns, Button, and of course Chen Jianhai.

After rushing out, Chen Jianhai had already put on a desperate posture. His start was good, and his 0.124 start reaction was not the fastest reaction he had ever had, but it was only a hair's breadth away from Collins'.After starting at 30 meters, he maintained his rhythm.Make the most of the coordination of stride frequency and stride length that he can use.

He bites tightly behind Collins and is in the fifth position.There is a desperate posture, but what kind of mentality is used to fight hard, and how hard it can be exerted is also more or less exquisite.

Compared with other people's fights, the only difference from them is that he doesn't have the pressure to make it to the finals and have the energy to fight again.The Bahamas and Trinidad and Tobago are small countries, either alone or under the pressure of competition.For those players, it really doesn't mean much to make it to the final and not win a medal.

For Chen Jianhai, with Shen Huan and Zhao Lin, he can face the game with a very relaxed attitude.

He can somewhat understand Shen Bao's feelings, but compared to Shen Bao who was so "easy to satisfy", he had many more ideas.

Chen Bao's figure flashed across his mind, and Chen Jianhai forgot it in an instant, speeding up without any distractions.

30 meters, 40 meters, 50 meters...

Half of the race has passed, and all the players have entered the absolute high-speed stage. At this time, the gap is further reflected.
