Capítulo 140: Break the 20 second mark
This year's East Asian Track and Field officially began on November 1st. The first is the women's high jump and the women's shot put, and then the men's decathlon part. In the sprint event, the first to start is the 100-meter sprint race.
Due to the relatively small number of contestants in the track and field events of the East Asian Games, the preliminary event was not scheduled for the 100-meter event, and the finals began directly at 2:40 pm on the 1st. The 10th National Games runner-up Hu Kai defeated two players from Japan and eventually won the championship of this project.
On November 2, there were two highlights. One was the men's 110-meter hurdles final. Liu Feiren was about to debut in this event. The second was the men's 200-meter final. This was Zhang Guan's 200-meter sprint debut.
In the 110-meter hurdles, Liu Feiren's biggest opponent is not a foreign player, but his teammate.
At the beginning of the game, Liu Feiren fell behind Da Shi, but Liu Feiren adjusted the rhythm in the game, and finally succeeded in overtaking, surpassing the finish line with a score of 13 seconds 21. It was much better than what the coaching team predicted before this result. And Liu Feiren is considered to have completed this year's competition.
Then there will be competitions in other events, and within a few hours, it will be 200 meters, which is Zhang Guan 's 200-meter debut.
...
"The next is the men's 200-meter sprint competition and Zhang Guan's 200-meter sprint debut!" The organizer's narrator continued, "We also specially invited Hong Kong's famous sports commentator Mr. Lin Guangyi for this game. Sir Lin, say hello to the audience!"
"Hello everyone!" Mr. Lin said.
"Mr. Lin, this is Zhang Guan's 200-meter debut. I don't know if you think Zhang Guan might win the championship in this project?" The commentator asked directly.
"I think Zhang Guan is very likely to win the championship in the 200-meter sprint," Lin Guangyi said.
"Is it because Zhang Guan is the 100-meter world record holder?" The commentator asked.
"Yes. We know that it is easy for a 200-meter athlete to switch to a 100-meter sprint, and it is difficult for a 100-meter athlete to transfer to a 200-meter sprint, but considering that Zhang Guan is the holder of the 100-meter world record, even if he is still not very comfortable with the 200-meter sprint, but with his speed advantage, it is not difficult to win the 200-meter championship on this field." Mr. Lin explained.
"Mr. Lin, who do you think is Zhang Guan's biggest competitor?" The commentator then asked.
"It's the Japanese team's Gao Pingshi and his teammate Yang Yao. Both of them are very strong 200-meter players. Among them, Gao Pingshi is a very powerful rookie who has emerged in Japan in recent years. Yang Yao, as the first person in China's 200 meters, also participated in the Athens Olympics in the past year and entered the second round. However, in the 100 meters project, Zhang Guan was about 0.5 seconds faster than these two. This gap is difficult to smooth out, so I am still very optimistic about Zhang Guan." Mr. Lin said.
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Lin, for your comments. The athletes will be playing next. Let's enter an advertisement and then enter the competition."
...
"Gao Pingshi, Zhang Guan has never run a 200-meter sprint, which means that his 200-meter sprint experience is zero! And you already have a lot of competition experience in the 200-meter sprint event, so you have an advantage!" Kobayashi Jinghe only needs to encourage Gao Pingshi, "So, believe in yourself! Don't worry about Zhang Guan, you will be able to defeat him!"
"Yes, coach, I will work hard!" Gao Pingshi finished and went to the stadium.
Kobayashi Jinghe looked at Gao Pingshi's back and sighed secretly. Although he hoped that Gao Pingshi could defeat Zhang Guan, in fact, he also knew that this possibility was not very big. The gap in the 200-meter game is too wide. As long as Zhang Guan doesn't make a mistake, Gao Pingshi simply cannot win.
"Takano, you will carefully observe Zhang Guan's cornering technique in a moment," Jinghe ordered.
"Yes, coach, I will watch carefully," Takano said.
At the same time, Zhang Guan and Yang Yao talked on the track.
"I didn't expect us to stand on the same field again, but this time we became opponents. How is your speed for 200 meters?" Yang Yao said.
"It's okay! The speed feels pretty good, after all, there is a 100-meter foundation." Zhang Guan continued. "The day after tomorrow is another 4 by 100-meter relay race, I'm still the fourth and I will take the baton from you again... "
"Yeah, I'm the third-best! This time the Japanese team is not as strong as last time. I think we can win the relay championship!" Yang Yao said.
"By the way, I don't know much about our opponents. Are they powerful?" Zhang Guan asked.
"You should have seen the Japanese team's Gao Pingshi. He also ran the 4x100m relay race in the Asian Games last year. During last year's Athens Olympics, he also participated, but it was around the tour. The other is South Korean player Park Jin-hee. This 200-meter sprint athlete from South Korea is also considered to be an athlete with some strength." Yang Yao thought for a while, then said, "If you run according to the B-mark results of the Athens Olympic Games, they won't have a chance to win."
Zhang Guan nodded. The 200-meter sprint for the Athens Olympics was 20.59 seconds for the A mark and 20.75 seconds for the B mark. This was not difficult for Zhang Guan.
...
The athletes were all standing on the starting line, and Gao Pingshi looked at Zhang Guan, and a strong fighting spirit flowed into his heart.
Gao Pingshi is more focused on the 200-meter sprint. He has no direct experience with Zhang Guan, but he knows that if he can defeat Zhang Guan, even if it is only once, it will be remembered by everyone, he will become the hero of Japan!
"The coach is right, even if Zhang Guan runs very fast in the 100m? He has no perfect experience in the 200m. I've beaten him at this point, so I have a chance to beat him! I will become a hero in Japan! Come on!" Gao Pingshi silently cheered himself in his heart.
The starter raised his gun high, and the atmosphere of the game became tenser.
Not far away, Coach Yu's face was slightly dignified. Although he knew that Zhang Guan's 200-meter sprint level would beat his opponent to win the championship, this was Zhang Guan's 200-meter sprint debut after all so if you accidentally act, you will lose face.
"The game is about to start!" The commentator held his breath, and then only heard the sound of clear gunshots.
"The game has started! The starting is very good." It was Mr. Lin who was speaking. Mr. Lin is a professional sports commentator in Hong Kong. His commentary experience is much richer than that of this Macau narrator. At the moment when the gunshot sounded, Mr. Lin seemed to forget that he was just explaining as a guest, and he started to talk about it.
"Zhang Guan is accelerating, his speed is very fast, the advantage is very obvious!"
As Mr. Lin explained, Zhang Guan's advantage is indeed very obvious, even if he can't see the order in the curve temporarily, but people can still tell Zhang Guan's speed is faster.
Yu Gui, who was watching from a distance, was relieved. It seemed that Zhang Guan ran very well, so the 200-meter sprint event would have no suspense on who would win the championship.
Kobayashi Jinghe's face became more gloomy. He could see that Zhang Guan's cornering technique could only be quite satisfactory, and there were no obvious technical features. To put it plainly, the technique is more general, it was as he expected. With speed alone, Zhang Guan can suppress every other athlete in the arena.
"Zhang Guan took the lead in the straight, the advantage is obvious! He started to sprint! The speed is very amazing! Sprint! Come on! Come on!" Mr. Lin's voice improved by several decibels.
This kind of speed suppression has no techniques at all. The moment Zhang Guan first entered the straight track, the spectators already guessed the result of the game and he gained an advantage in the curve. To the 100-meter straight that Zhang Guan is good at, other athletes are more unlikely to surpass him, the gap will only increase.
Zhang Guan on the court also began to slow down properly. In this event, the speed difference between him and other Asian athletes is too large. He can easily abuse the vegetables without any effort. Then, Zhang Guan easily crossed the finish line.
"Crossing the line, Zhang Guan won the championship! We congratulate Zhang Guan on winning the 200-meter sprint event! This is Zhang Guan's perfect debut!"
The sound of cheers and applause resounded throughout the audience, but there was more applause than cheers. The audience at the scene all came to watch Zhang Guan's 200m debut, and everyone thought that Zhang Guan would win the 200m event before the game. There should be no pressure on the champion. This is the type of situation where everyone knows the result in advance, but it makes many people unable to mention it.
At this moment, Zhang Guan's score and a subtitle were displayed on the big screen.
"19 seconds 98! He broke the Asian record!"
At the next moment, cheers suddenly trumped applause!
"A new Asian record, a new Asian record in the 200-meter sprint! We just predicted that Zhang Guan could win the championship before the game, but we didn't expect him to go further and break the 200-meter Asian record! And he ran into 20 seconds! He is the first Asian to run within 20 seconds on a 200m project!"
The Asian record for the 200-meter sprint is precisely set by Japanese sprinter Shenwu who set it at 20.03 seconds in 2003. Zhang Guan directly improved this result of 20.03 by 0.05 seconds. More importantly, Zhang Guan ran within 20 seconds.
The 20-second mark at 200 meters is the same as the 10-second mark at 100 meters, which is difficult for Asians to overcome. By comparison, the 200-meter 20-second mark is even more difficult. The previous 200-meter record in Asia has been monopolized by the Japanese. First, Ito Koji, the first Japanese to run 100 meters in 10 seconds, is a player who mainly practices the 200 meters, and has been dominating for the past few years. Asia's 200-meter sprint project was still dominated by Japan when Shenwu succeeded in succeeding Ito Koji and promoted the Japanese team's dominance in the 200-meter sprint.
But today, the pattern of the Asian 200-meter sprint has changed. The 19.98-second result, even Shenwu can not do it.
Kobayashi closed his eyes and said, "It seems that another sprint event will be handed over to the Chinese!"
