Chapter 157: Skip the eight meter mark!
Ten days of practice time, from a rookie who hasn't learned long jump to a national first-class athlete long jumper, if you don't see it with your own eyes, it is impossible to believe.
"Talent! Zhang Guan's physical talent is indeed very strong, perhaps the strongest in the world." Yu Gui was not as surprised as Director Ma. He had seen Zhang Guan create miracles many times, and he even started to get used to it.
"Yes, talent! We can't think of him as an ordinary Asian athlete. He must be regarded as an abnormal black player in the United States... No, he is more powerful than a black player!" Director Ma thought this, and then he was relieved a lot.
For Chinese athletes, it is impossible to jump to 7.3 meters in 10 days of practice. For some European and American black athletes who are very abnormal and have sports foundations, they may be able to do so. For example, the spring people in the NBA, it is not necessary to give them ten days of training time and still get better results.
If you are a person who has not practiced sports, it is impossible to jump to 7.3 meters in ten days, but the basis of sports is different. The flexibility and control of athletes are much stronger than ordinary people. The speed of new sports is naturally much faster than ordinary people.
This is like learning dance. If you let dancers learn modern dance and folk dance, it may take several times. But if someone with a little dance foundation learns folk dance, it may not be possible to learn it in a few days.
On the runway, Zhang Guan was ready again, and Director Ma also calmed down, waiting for Zhang Guan's third jump.
"7.14 meters!" The surveyor shouted Zhang Guan's results.
Hearing this result, Director Ma suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems that the first test jump is close to 7 meters. The result is Mongolian. Just that time, Zhang Guan's movement timing is better, but the score is worsening. Is this normal?" Director Ma secretly said.
The score of more than 7 meters should be Zhang Guan's normal result in the eyes of Director Ma.
Athletes of the 100-meter sprint international level are not specialized in long jumps. Occasionally they challenge the long jump. The normal level is on the 7-meter line, and Zhang Guan's 100-meter sprint level is better than ordinary international sports, as he is much taller, so Director Ma feels that this is Zhang Guan's normal performance at this level.
"It's very far from 7.8 meters! He still has three chances, it's already impossible." Director Ma said while waiting for Zhang Guan's fourth jump.
...
In the run-up area, Zhang Guan squatted down and tightened his laces.
"The state is almost adjusted, and the feeling of long jump is gradually found. There are three jumps, and it is time to be serious, and Director Ma must be surprised!"
Zhang Guan took a deep breath and made a running pose.
"Huh?" Yu Gui suddenly uttered a low voice, and he felt that the gas field exuded from Zhang Guan suddenly changed.
For more than a year, Yu Gui is the person who gets along with Zhang Guan most, and he is also the one who knows Zhang Guan the most. He knows what Zhang Guan looks like when he is serious and what he looks like when he is not serious. At the moment, he felt that Zhang Guan seemed serious.
"Oh, as I expected, the first three jumps are not that simple! Zhang Guan should still be adjusting in the first three jumps, and then the real test jump will follow." Coach Yu quietly looked at Director Ma and said in secret, "Director Ma is afraid that he is going to take the lead today."
Although Director Ma next to him did not understand Zhang Guan as much as he was instructed, at this time, he also felt that Zhang Guan seemed a little different, but the specifics had changed, and Director Ma couldn't tell.
After all, Zhang Guan is a world champion. During this year's uninterrupted competition, he has continuously won one championship after another, constantly climbing one peak after another, constantly surpassing himself, and has already been cultivated in him. This kind of special temperament is not possessed by people of other professions, just like the kind of indignity of the superiors, the bravery of the soldiers, and the bloodthirsty indifference of the killers.
Today's Zhang Guan, inadvertently revealing his body, is the kind of pride and confidence that belongs to the world champion.
The next moment, he saw Zhang Guan look at the sand pool in the distance and started running.
With a running distance of more than 40 meters, it is enough for Zhang Guan to raise his speed to the extreme. This is a speed that belongs to the world record holder. No one in the world can do it.
He stepped on the springboard. Although there was some distance between the toes and the markings, this time the jump was not perfect, this did not affect the height of his jump!
At this moment, Zhang Guan flew into the sky like a hawk flying in the sky.
At this moment, Director Ma widened his eyes and stared closely at Zhang Guan, who was in the air.
"It's so high! The height of this flight can be said to be perfect!" Director Ma also couldn't help admiring his heart. Although Zhang Guan's flight this time cannot be said to be a world-class level if it is placed at the level of domestic athletes, it can be regarded as perfect, even the picky Director Ma will also give this a full score.
But then, Zhang Guan's squatting movements are completely out of Director Ma's eyes.
"Opportunity! Opportunity! The choice of action timing is bad! Zero points!" Director Ma secretly said.
Although squatting is the easiest way to take off, it is also the easiest way to master balance in the air. Among the three types of flying, walking is the easiest way to control balance, and it is also the favorite flying method for professional athletes. The push-up type, because it can fully stretch the body, is also much better than the squatting type in controlling balance.
Zhang Guan was ready to land, and his body began to fall. At the moment of landing, his feet were shoveled into the sand pond. As the inertia moved forward, the sand pond that had been leveled out appeared instantly. After two ravines, the sand turned forward and turned into a short sand wall, and then quickly fell to the ground. Zhang Guan, on the other hand, used his strength to stand up and slide inertially.
"This landing is not bad, barely qualified!" Director Ma commented on Zhang Guan's landing posture.
And at this moment, Yu Gui's voice sounded from the side, "This seems to have reached the eight-meter line!"
Director Ma immediately looked towards the distance scale marked beside the sand pool. The place where Zhang Guan landed seemed to be really at the position of the eight-meter line.
"Eight meters? How is it possible? Isn't it stepping on the line?" Director Ma exclaimed but saw that the coach who served as the referee at the springboard raised a white flag symbolizing effective results.
"Results are valid! This jump was successful!" Yu Gui said. The surveyor also shouted Zhang Guan's performance in this jump.
"Broken 8 meters! 8.02 meters! It's 8.02 meters!"
"Broken 8 meters!" Director Ma repeated, his face filled with shock, but a second later, he suddenly laughed.
"Broken 8 meters! Broken 8 meters! Old Yu, did you see it? He broke 8 meters! It's only been ten days, he has only been training for ten days! He has broken 8 meters!" Director Ma became more and more excited and gradually lost logic in his discourse.
The eight-meter mark of the long jump event is not insurmountable for domestic athletes. More than 30 people in the history of the national team have achieved this result in the game, and the domestic long jump record reached 8.40 meters. But for someone who has only learned ten days of long jump, being able to jump over the eight-meter mark represents an absolute talent. This is a talent that can become the world's top long jump athlete.
Next to Director Ma, Yu Gui was also taken aback. He had a feeling that Zhang Guan might be able to jump to 7.8 meters, but he never thought that Zhang Guan would skip the eight-meter mark. Eight meters is not only an integer threshold for long jumpers but also a level of international athletes. For domestic track and field athletes, the international standard of athletes, in any event, is this level. Only a few of them can cross this level with difficulty. This level is a level that can give you a chance to go to the world.
Immediately afterward, Yu Gui was disappointed again. Zhang Guan jumped the eight-meter mark, which meant that Zhang Guan was no longer just a sprinter. In the future, he would develop towards the field of long jump, which is no longer his field of expertise. Yu Gui is going to share Zhang Guan with other coaches.
"Zhang Guan! I didn't expect you to walk so fast. It has only been over a year. You have surpassed my footsteps and embarked on your path. Maybe one day in the future, I have nothing to teach you..." Yu Gui thought silently.
...
From this day on, the national team arranged another coach for Zhang Guan. This coach Li is much younger than Yu Gui, he was only in his early forties. He was a decathlon athlete when he was young. Now he is also a coach of the decathlon, but if he talks about the level of long jump, the level of coach Li is similar to a professional long jump coach, at least instructing Zhang Guan as a rookie is more than enough.
Ten days later, this year's National Lawrence Top Ten Champion Award was held in Star City. This time Zhang Guan won the Best Male Athlete Award, and Liu Feiren won the Most Popular Athlete Award. The two men just swapped it last year, and their coach also won the best coach award for coaching.
After the Lawrence Top Ten Champion Award, the seventh World Lawrence Sports Award announced the list, Zhang Guan was nominated for the best male athlete, and the best male athletes competing with Zhang Guan are the old acquaintances of the previous session. Including tennis king Federer, car king Schumacher, Tiger Woods, and new footballer Ronaldinho.
In the nomination of the best female athlete, Sharapova has not been nominated, but she has already made an appointment with Zhang Guan and will participate in the award ceremony of the World Lawrence Sports Award in Barcelona, Spain with him.
But before that, Zhang Guan will also participate in two competitions, the IAAF Grand Prix in Japan and the IAAF Super Grand Prix in Qatar.
