Bab 186: Zoom in, start running
In the reporter area, several reporters are discussing the current situation.
"We have just discussed Zhang Guan running into the 9.70-second mark, but have you noticed that Zhang Guan has won all five stations in this year's Golden League, and he is the only athlete who has won five stations?" A French journalist said.
"Zhang Guan is the first person to win the first half-million dollars. Let me take a look. The next four victories are Di Baba, Becker, Richards, and Saladino. If they win the last race in Berlin, they can also share with Zhang Guan $500,000, but the remaining $500,000, only Zhang Guan can enjoy it alone! " A native Belgian reporter immediately said.
The Spanish reporter on the side is more interested in money. He said in Spanish with a Spanish taste, "If Zhang Guan wins in the next 400 meters, he will win five consecutive victories in both projects. I don't know whether the IAAF calculates the bonus according to one quota or two quotas."
"Will the gap be large?" The first French journalist to speak asked.
The Spanish reporter used his mobile phone to calculate while saying, "If Di Baba, Becker, Richards, and Saradino can win at the last stop, then there are four people. If Zhang Guan is counted as one for the quota, each of them can fly to 100,000, but if Zhang Guan is counted as two quotas, the four people will only receive 83,000 US dollars, and Zhang Guan is 166,000 US dollars. For the other four athletes, the difference of 17,000 US dollars per person seems not very big, but for Zhang Guan, it is the difference of 83,000 US dollars, which is almost close to the record-breaking bonus given by the IAAF. "
"I guess the IAAF should calculate Zhang Guan's bonus according to the two events!" The Belgian reporter said with a tone in his tone, Zhang Guan just broke the world record of 100 meters and gave the Belgian the icing on the cake which is good, so the Belgian journalist is now in favor of Zhang Guan.
An American reporter suddenly said sourly, "It is a bit early to discuss these. It is still unknown whether Zhang Guan can defeat Varina in the following games. Varina's condition has been very good recently."
"Even if Varina won against Zhang Guan at this stop, is there still Berlin? In the last two races of the Golden League, as long as Zhang Guan wins once, he will be the winner of five stops." The Belgian reporter immediately rebutted.
As soon as the Belgian reporter's voice fell, the German reporter immediately reminded, "Gentlemen, I have to interrupt your discussion. The competition is about to start, so let's focus on the competition..."
...
The athletes are all ready. This 400-meter event is still a battle between Zhang Guan and Varina. As for breaking the world record, no one will think in that direction. After all, the best of the two are competing, so the results are not far behind the world record.
For the 400 meters athletes, after running within 44 seconds, every 0.1 seconds forward is extremely difficult. Zhang Guan's best score at 400 meters is 43.58 seconds, which is 0.4 seconds away from Johnson's 43.18 seconds. This 0.4 seconds in this level of competition can be said that it is an insurmountable gap.
Zhang Guan stood on the starting block, silently adjusting his breathing rhythm, waiting for the instructions to start.
"43.18 seconds! In my current situation, this number has exceeded the limit of my normal running. If I want to exceed this number, I can only use that big trick! Although it is a little shameless and a little wasteful, now I have a lot more skills, which is not that bad." Zhang Guan thought silently.
The starter shouted instructions, then a gunshot sounded and the athlete started to run.
In the starting phase, Zhang Guan remained the same as before, and other athletes ran at their own pace. In fact, for 400-meter runners who can board the world stage, they have their running methods and technical characteristics. Especially at the starting stage, few people will change it.
For ordinary spectators, for the first 100 meters, they won't see any advantages and disadvantages, so they are more lively, and after entering the straight runway, although the front and rear positions are different, it is easier to distinguish who's speed on the plane is faster.
Varina's condition today is indeed very good, and his performance in the game is also very good, and Zhang Guan is also as stable as ever. The strength of these two athletes is significantly higher than the other athletes participating, and the track of the two is side by side, so whether it is the audience's attention or the live broadcast lens, it is always aimed at the two.
Varina has special skills in straight running and can gain an advantage through a larger step, but Zhang Guan can also achieve the same effect in the same way through the step-by-step skills. After passing the previous Golden League Rome and Zurich stations in the contest, Varina also knew that he could hardly get a clear advantage in the second 100-meter straight runway, so now he put more attention on the next 100 meters.
After the straight runway, he entered the corner area. This is a section that Varina is very good at. His good technical characteristics can be perfectly played in this section. In the previous game with Zhang Guan, this stage was also the stage where he won the lead, so Varina focused more attention on the third 100-meter curve.
During the curve run, Varina began to reduce the pace again, and the increased pace frequency, the speed is also significantly faster, Varina expects that in this distance, he can run to 10.3 seconds, this result is not at the same level of the athletes, it is the fastest.
"The most powerful part of Zhang Guan is the last sprint, and he is behind in this corner. According to the usual situation, the time spent by Zhang Guan is about 11.5 seconds away. This is the best time for me to gain an advantage!" Varina thought of this and could not help but quietly turn his head to observe Zhang Guan's situation.
At the next moment, Varina was shocked!
"What! Zhang Guan is so fast today! He ran a speed increase ahead of time!" Varina just turned his head to observe for a moment, and he already saw that Zhang Guan also started to increase the speed. At this stage, Zhang Guan is still running at a constant speed.
"Did Zhang Guan change the running method again? He accelerated the speed ahead at this stage, so will the next 100 meters be sprinted as before? He will now consume a lot of energy using this early acceleration running method, then his final sprint will certainly be slower than usual!" After Varina was surprised, the psychological qualities of the top athletes calmed him down quickly, and then he began to quickly analyze the situation on the court in his heart.
"Yeah, Zhang Guan showed some physical exertion, and his final 100-meter sprint must be slower than usual. Zhang Guan's cornering skills are not as good as mine, so he is also accelerating, and his speed in corners is slower than mine. Calculating that Zhang Guan spent more of his precious physical energy on the corners that he was not the best at, so for me, this is a very favorable situation. I can win today!" Varina suddenly felt that he was full of the spirit of fighting, and his confidence in defeating Zhang Guan was increasing.
However, in the coaching area, Coach Hart frowned.
"How did Zhang Guan accelerate in advance, did he change his running style again? But his cornering skills are not as good as Varina, and he consumes his physical strength in areas he is not good at. This is not worth it. During his last race he didn't run in the field like this, did Zhang Guan develop any new technique?" Coach Hart is after all the coach of Michael Johnson. In terms of experience, in the 400-meter sprint coach, Hart is the world's No. 1 coach, so he thought about it much more than Varina.
At the next moment, Coach Hart secretly turned his head to look at Yu Gui, who he couldn't see far away. Then he found that Yu Gui was also frowning, and there was a puzzling expression in his eyes, which made Coach Hart's suspicion again a bit.
"Why does Zhang Guan's coach look like that? Doubt? Puzzled? Confused? Is he also surprised that Zhang Guan changed his running style? As a coach, how could he not understand the running style of his athletes? But why Zhang? This coach of the crown will still have this expression?" Coach Hart couldn't figure it out more and more, and there were more and more concerns in his heart.
Coach Yu's thoughts at this time are similar to those of coach Hart. Zhang Guan suddenly accelerated ahead of time today and changed the previous running method. He did not discuss with Yu Gui in advance, so Yu Gui was also caught off guard by Zhang Guan. The conclusion of his analysis is the same as that of Coach Hart. He also thinks that it is not worthwhile for Zhang Guan to consume physical strength in corners that he is not the best at it. To know that Varina is the best 400-meter athlete at the corner, Zhang Guan can't compare his weaknesses with his opponent's strengths.
However, the game is going on, and Yu has no way to tell Zhang Guan what to do. He can only pretend to be calm and then look at the subsequent developments.
...
On the track, Zhang Guan at this time has canceled the "incomplete sprint activation effect", which means that he is actually in a state of sprinting.
In Zhang Guan's mind, the display number of physical strength in the system is rapidly declining, which shows that Zhang Guan's physical strength is rapidly being consumed. I have run more than 200 meters before, sprinting at this time point, the physical consumption is much more than the physical consumption of the direct sprint after the start, of course, the speed is also much faster.
However, Varina still has to win against him to enter the final straight runway. After all, Varina is the best 400-meter athlete in the world in cornering technique. Under the same accelerated running situation, Zhang Guan is still no match for Varina in the corner.
After entering the straight track, Varina generally has an advantage of 1 second to 1.5 seconds after entering the last straight track, and Zhang Guan will have his abnormal sprint to eat away this advantage. However, because Zhang Guan accelerated earlier today, Varina's advantage was not much.
Zhang Guan's sprint all the way and quickly entered the final straight, and then he began the final sprint. However, Zhang Guan's physical strength will soon drop to the 60-point mark.
According to the regulations of the system, 60 points of physical strength is the guideline for Zhang Guan to exert his normal strength. Once the physical strength drops below 60 points, the athletes cannot even exert their normal level.
"It's almost impossible to maintain this high-speed sprint, the limit of physical strength is here. Varina, I'm sorry, the next step is to zoom in!"
Zhang Guan silently used a bottle of physical potion, his physical value instantly improved.
The moment of "opening and running" came again...
