Ding!
[Congratulations to the host for winning first place in the 2024 Swimming World Cup Shanghai Station 100m Men's Freestyle Preliminary, and reward 800 experience points! ]
Ding!
[Congratulations to the host for breaking the men's 100m freestyle short-course world record again in the 2024 Swimming World Cup Shanghai Station, and reward 3000 experience points! ]
……
During lunch, Chen Shu received his reward.
3800 experience points, plus the 4200 points he had saved before, only 8000 points, which is not enough to upgrade the master-level skills to the next level.
So after receiving the reward, Chen Shu did not upgrade again.
"You two have so many brainless fans!"
"Can you feel superior by competing?"
Wang Shun sat at a table with Chen Shu and others, holding their phones and browsing short videos and news.
"Don't worry about these idiots..."
Pan Zhanle came to Chen Shu with a buffet and sat down and said, "I have disbanded the fan group. Really, sometimes I can't stand it. I can understand chasing stars, but attacking other strangers for a stranger is totally incomprehensible!"
"For example, I like Zhou Jielun, I just like to listen to his songs and pay attention to his works!"
"If you like an athlete, shouldn't you only pay attention to his games?"
"Of course that's right!"
Xu Jiayu suddenly raised his head: "But you have to understand that some people like you just because you win the championship and you win the first place. They If they think you are awesome, they will think they are awesome too. Look, my idol is awesome!"
"He uses it as a way to show off his awesomeness!"
"So, he must defend you with all his might, because that is also defending himself!"
"Damn!"
Pan Zhanle looked at Xu Jiayu with some admiration: "Brother Turtle, you have a sense of seeing through the world. How can you say such philosophical words?"
"Nonsense, besides Brother Yang, Brother Turtle has suffered from online violence. Of course, he has a deep understanding of it!"
Wang Shun looked at Xu Jiayu with some sarcasm, and Xu Jiayu directly hit Wang Shun's head with a fork.
"Damn, the more I watch, the angrier I get. If you don't know, you would think our swimming team is fighting fiercely!"
"They seem to know more than us!"
"Brother Shu, your fans have scolded me to death!"
Pan Zhanle was eating while watching videos. Many Chen Shu fans were publicly dissing him.
"You are so idle!"
"Look, I don't post updates on my social platforms now. Let them mess around. I don't even know what a fan group is!"
Chen Shu's way of dealing with things has always been to give it a cold shoulder.
Sun Yang does have experience in this regard: "This is also wrong. If you let your fans talk nonsense, your reputation will be ruined by them. If I were you, I would post an intimate video with Captain Pan to piss them off!"
"Hahaha, the mouth-to-mouth kind?"
Xu Jiayu is indeed disgusting.
Pan Zhanle has already covered his face with a basin, but after thinking about it, Pan Zhanle and Chen Shu do think that what Sun Yang said makes sense.
"What video should we post?"
The two looked at Sun Yang, after all, he has experience in this kind of thing.
"There must be both struggle and topics, and people must see that you two have a good relationship in private!"
After thinking about it, Sun Yang said directly: "Let's arm wrestle!"
"Arm wrestling?"
Chen Shu and Pan Zhanle looked at each other, and Chen Shu immediately surrendered: "I'm not as strong as Captain Pan!"
"Just pretending!"
"This is good!"
"We can act as a cheerleader!"
"Yes, haha, the women's team can also be pulled over, and then watch You two were tug-of-war at the limit..."
"Wouldn't it be a bit too much to post it now?"
"It's better to post it after the game?"
"Why post it after the game? What's your relationship during the interview? Can't you tell at a glance?"
"If I lose, I will definitely not be happy with Brother Shu!"
"Haha, it's confirmed, you black fan..."
A bunch of people were laughing and joking, and finally a video of Chen Shu and Pan Zhanle playing around was posted online by Sun Yang.
This was the best way to deal with it after several people discussed it.
Sun Yang has a large traffic, and if he posted it, it would be enough to prove the private relationship between Chen Shu and Pan Zhanle.
The most important thing is that Chen Shu and Pan Zhanle themselves cannot post it, because they are about to compete. If they post it and say that they didn't swim well in the competition, it will be another piece of black material.
Sun Yang is different. He seems fair when he posts it this way.
Of course, this video is not for the fans of Chen Shu and Pan Zhanle, but to let those who care know that Chen Shu and Pan Zhanle have no conflicts in private.
Some people are leading the trend there, don't believe it.
This is to prevent Chen Shu and Pan Zhanle from having their reputations ruined by the fan circle.
There is already such a trend in the national table tennis team.
Sometimes, if athletes train well and ignore the Internet, they will be made passive by these so-called "fans".
So we should take action when necessary and not indulge them.
...
After dinner, everyone went back to the hotel and fell asleep.
Chen Shu picked up his phone after waking up.
Sure enough, whether it is Douyin or Weibo, the first hot search is - Chen Shu vs Pan Zhanle!
This news is not very directional, but the following is unbearable. Fans of both sides have already started a war of words, and Chen Shu is immune to it. (abaj)
[At 5pm, the 100m Flying Fish Battle! ]
[Chen Shu, Pan Zhanle and Wang Haoyu, three Chinese swimmers, advance to the men's 100m freestyle finals of the Swimming World Cup in Shanghai! ]
[Chen Shu once again broke the record of the men's 100m freestyleShort course world record! ]
[Pan Zhanle breaks the men's 100m freestyle short course world record created by Chen Shu! ]
[Chen Shu vs Pan Zhanle! ]
...
In a flash, among the top 50 hot searches on all platforms, at least 10 are about the Swimming World Cup, Chen Shu and Pan Zhanle.
A few days ago, it was obvious that the popularity of the Swimming World Cup was not so high.
But now, just because of the competition between Chen Shu and Pan Zhanle, millions of people are discussing this afternoon game.
And all major platforms have made preparations to start the second day of the Swimming World Cup in Shanghai - the afternoon session.
"It's time... to make a conclusion!"
Since Chen Shu was reborn and traveled through time, surpassing Pan Zhanle has always been a goal and knot in Chen Shu's heart.
Although this time it is not a long course, but a short course.
But as he said, he has surpassed Chen Shu in the short pool, so how far is the long pool?
Once there is a time, there will be a second time.
In today's preliminaries, the two were not in the same group. In such a long-distance competition, even if Chen Shu finally led him by 0.05 seconds, it was not a real final, and no one would think that Shu had surpassed Zhan.
It must be the final, and then defeat him squarely.
That counts as defeating him!
And this opportunity is coming soon.
Pan Zhanle is the same.
He has a good relationship with Chen Shu in private, and they are brothers, but on the court, they are opponents.
The best way to respect brothers and opponents is for the two of them to fight with all their strength, even if they lose, there is no regret.
This is out of respect for both parties.
Opponents on the court have a much better relationship in private.
Like Federer and Nadal, Li Zongwei and Super Dan, Ma Long and Xiaopang...Chen Shu and Pan Zhanle are of course the same.
...
"Are you still awake?"
Pan Zhanle's voice came from outside the door.
Chen Shu packed up and opened the door, but saw Pan Zhanle standing there in full gear. He couldn't help but laugh: "Why, so impatient?"
"That's nonsense, the whole network is urging!"
"Haha!"
Chen Shu closed the door and the two walked downstairs.
At the elevator entrance, they met Xu Jiayu and Wang Shun, who also had a game in the afternoon.
And they played earlier than Chen Shu and the others.
"Brother Shu, did you really let go of the preliminaries in the morning?"
Pan Zhanle asked in the elevator, and Xu Jiayu and Wang Shun turned their heads and looked at Chen Shu. (To read the most exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
They obviously don’t know about this yet.
“Well, let him go!”
Chen Shu said it very seriously. Pan Zhanle ignored the shocked expressions of Xu Jiayu and Wang Shun and nodded very seriously: “Well, I… know!”
This is the answer he wanted.
Then, he stimulated all the small universe of his physical energy. []
Chen Shu would do the same.
Fair competition, and finally deciding the winner, is the greatest support for each other.
"These two people are a little crazy!"
Looking at the figures of Chen Shu and Pan Zhanle one after the other, Wang Shun whispered to Xu Jiayu.
Xu Jiayu made a funny expression: "There's a lot of gunpowder!"
"It makes me want to know which of these two guys can win the gold medal!"
"In fact, who gets it doesn't mean who is stronger, it only means who performs better. I feel that the strength of the two is almost the same!"
"In terms of mentality, I think Brother Shu is better!"
"This guy is a challenger, so his mentality must be good; unlike Captain Pan, he is the defender, and he has to keep the title of the world's number one!"
"Defense is always harder than attacking!"
"..."
The two whispered to each other, went downstairs and gathered with the members of the swimming team, and then walked towards the Oriental Sports Center.
When they arrived at the backcourt of the Huaxia Swimming Team, Chen Shu and Pan Zhanle sat there, neither of them spoke, but closed their eyes and leaned against each other to conserve their energy.
Everyone who saw this scene surprisingly did not disturb them. After all, everyone knew that the two would have a peak showdown next. Everyone present was even looking forward to this match more than their own games.
And then, the first final of the afternoon, the women's 50m backstroke, was about to begin.
The men's 100m freestyle final was held in the seventh game, around 5 o'clock in the evening.
"Russia has been holding back its energy by not participating in the Paris Olympics!"
"The Americans must be defeated!"
In the 50m backstroke, the short-course world record holder, the Russian star Klesnitov, once again broke his own record of 22.11 seconds created in the 21st World Cup in Kazan, Russia, and won the gold medal in this event with 21.99 seconds.
This is also Russia's first gold medal in this World Cup of Swimming.
Brother Turtle won the second place, a silver medal.
In the next 50m breaststroke, Qin Haiyang lived up to expectations and won first place again. Although he did not break the world record, he defended his strength.
Huaxia once again ranked second with 5 golds, 3 silvers and 6 bronzes.
The US team still leads with 6 gold medals, while Australia has 4.
In the next men's 200m medley, France's Marchand is still strong, with Britain's Duncan Scott first and second, and Wang Shun regretfully won the bronze.
In addition to the men's, in the women's 50m backstroke, Australia's McKeown broke the world record and won the gold without suspense, and the previous world record holder, Canadian player McNeil, won the silver!
Then in the women's 200m freestyle and 50m butterfly, the former China Xiangjiang player He Shibei showed her strength as a world record holder, and the latter the American team's WalshWith Husk, one gold and one silver medal, the US team's gold medal count has been raised to 7!
Zhang Yufei... bronze medal!
"Falling to third again!"
"The US team has 7 gold medals, 2 short of..."
"The Australian gold medal is the same, but the silver medal is a bit different!"
Cui Dengrong looked at the real-time ranking of gold medals and medals, and glanced at the three empty seats behind him.
Just now Chen Shu, Wang Haoyu and Pan Zhanle were sitting there, and now they have walked to the players' channel.
"The next gold medal must be won!"
"We have to hold on to Australia to have hope in the end and kill the United States!"
"Otherwise, we can only compete with Australia!"
China won the first place in the number of swimming gold medals in the Paris Olympics.
If it falls to second this time, it is still excusable, but if it falls to third, it is obviously a bit unreasonable.
Even if they won the 8 gold medals set before the game, they were still gloomy.
This is a battle of strength at the national level. Fortunately, China has a great chance of winning the gold medal in the next men's 100m freestyle.
And China has occupied 3 of the 8 places in the final.
This is also the swimming event in which the most Chinese athletes have advanced to the finals in this World Swimming World Cup in Shanghai.
In the men's 100m freestyle, China has indeed risen.
"Come on!"
"Pan Zhanle, Chen Shu!"
Cui Dengrong also smiled as he looked at the big screen showing the men's 100m freestyle final about to begin.
In fact, he also wanted to know who would win the championship in this game.
Zheng Kunliang, Zhu Zhigen, Shi Mingbo and a group of Chinese swimming team players were all standing on the big screen at this moment, looking up at this 100-meter flying fish battle.
Not only them, the audience at the scene was packed, and several Douyin live broadcast rooms all had more than 100,000 people!
The most popular Douyin Sports had a full 2.21 million people online, not including the CCTV Sports Channel and the audience in front of the TV.
Since the birth of swimming competitions in China, there has never been a competition that has attracted so much attention from the Chinese people.
The 100-meter flying fish battle between Chen Shu and Pan Zhanle did it.
He made at least 100 million people in China watch this event.
"The exciting moment has finally arrived!"
"What is about to happen next is the men's 100-meter flying fish battle that everyone has been focusing on for a long time!"
"We see that the eight players participating in the men's 100-meter freestyle final are already in the player channel!"
Niu Yinhao watched the CCTV broadcast and introduced the players in the final one by one.
Chen Shu, Pan Zhanle, Wang Haoyu, Dressel, Chalmers, David Popovich, Alexi, Guiliano!
Three Chinese players, three American players, and one Australian and Romanian player.
“Except for Chen Shu and WangHaoyu!"
"The other six are all finalists of the Paris Olympics!"
"The first one to walk out is, of course, Chen Shu, who just broke the world record in this event with 43.65 seconds!"
Chen Shu was the first to walk out of the contestant channel. He was wrapped in a down jacket and wearing sunglasses. After walking out, he made a hug gesture to all the audience present, and then - one hand pointed to the sky!
This action was completely frozen by the camera.
Extremely arrogant and wild.
With Chen Shu standing there in silence, it seemed even more imposing.
Pan Zhanle, of course, did not shirk his responsibility.
He walked out in silence, only making a 1 gesture, shaking it in front of the camera, and the meaning was obviously self-evident - he took the first place.
"Oh, so exciting! ”
“Before the game even started, Chen Shu and Pan Zhanle showed a strong smell of gunpowder!”
“Both of them want to win first place, but there is only one gold medal and one champion. I hope both of them will be won by our Chinese athletes!”
Niu Yinhao smiled, and after the eight people came out, they stood on the sidelines.
Everyone was doing warm-up and patting exercises.
Chen Shu was in the fifth lane, and Pan Zhanle was in the fourth, and the two were in two closely adjacent lanes.
This further highlighted the tension and excitement of the game.
“Captain Pan!”
Chen Shu stood there and shouted to Pan Zhanle, who was popular next to him.
“Hmm?”
Pan Zhanle raised his head.
The two people’s gaze was also captured by the camera lens, giving a sense of déjà vu of a fateful battle.
“Come on! ”
Chen Shu just smiled and said to him.
