章 168: Unbeatable monster!
43.82 seconds after Michael Johnson retired, no athlete could achieve this result, and today Varina did, he is worthy of the title of Johnson's successor.
In any level of competition, as long as there is no accident, this result is enough to win the championship, enough to shock the world, but today, an accident occurred.
Zhang Guan's 43.67 seconds are more dazzling and more shocking than Varina's 43.82 seconds!
In the 400-meter sprint event, the top ten results in history are all created by Americans. The first is, of course, the world record of 43.18 seconds created by Johnson, and the 43.29 seconds is the world record before Johnson. After this, except for that one 43.50 seconds, the remaining seven 400-meter best results were also created by Johnson.
Today, Zhang Guan's 43.67 second is the world's tenth 400-meter sprint result. Before this result, Johnson's 43.66 seconds were created in Lausanne, and after that, Johnson's 43.68 seconds were also created in Zurich.
Varina stared blankly at the scoreboard. He had run around 43.80 seconds in training, so he had always been very confident in himself, even if Zhang Guan ran 43.99 seconds in Oslo, Varina was still confidence in myself.
Varina always felt that he was losing the game because of his care. As long as he takes the game seriously afterward, there will be no slack in the whole process, and he will be able to defeat Zhang Guan. But today, the 43.67 seconds told Varina that even if Varina did not relax, even if Varina tried his best, he still couldn't beat Zhang Guan.
43.67 seconds, Varina has never touched the score in training. Today, how can he not be shocked when it appeared before his eyes?
In addition to shock, there are more kinds of blows to self-confidence. Varina knows that in this game, he has no excuses as to why he lost. He is in good shape today. He also tried his best in the game. However, he still lost, and lost to hard power!
Not far away, Coach Hart's face became more dignified. For Coach Hart, it is not terrible for Zhang Guan to master the new technique. What is terrible is that Zhang Guan destroys Varina's self-confidence. What the world champion needs most is not a superb technique and extraordinary talent, but a champion's heart. Once the athlete loses his heart to win the championship, the championship will be farther and farther away from him.
"It seems that the primary task now is to help Valina rebuild confidence!" Coach Hart said silently.
...
In the athlete's rest area, Montgomery looked excitedly at Zhang Guan, constantly applauding, and the smile on his face was sincere, it felt like he had won the championship.
Powell glanced at Montgomery with some incomprehension. He did not understand why this former world record holder had such a performance. It stands to reason that Montgomery and Varina are both Americans. Varina lost the game. Montgomery should feel disappointed, but Montgomery is very excited today.
Crawford next to Montgomery couldn't stand anymore, he said to Montgomery, "Tim, well the celebration is over, we lost the game after all."
"Lost the game? No, no, I don't think so! I will win the game!" Montgomery's doll had a pleasant smile on his face, and then said, "You saw it just now, Zhang Guan sprint took 43.67 seconds! This should be the fastest 400-meter result after Johnson! Zhang Guan is so fast, he must have done his best in the game just now, he has no physical strength now! Zhang Guan has no physical strength left for the 100m sprint race. Shawn, do you know what this means? Haha, one of our most powerful competitors has been eliminated! We are one step further from the championship!"
Shawn Crawford frowned, "Tim, haven't you watched the 100-meter sprint at the Athens Olympics?"
Montgomery nodded, "Of course I did. Zhang Guan ran very fast! Greene, Gatlin, and you were all left behind by Zhang Guan."
"Did you not watch the semi-finals before?" Crawford continued, "Zhang Guan and Greene fought so fiercely in the semi-finals. We all thought that Zhang Guan had no physical strength, but in the finals, He was the one with the most physical reserves! Zhang Guan has a unique secret in physical recovery."
"The interval between the games was two hours, and we have less than fifty minutes today!" Montgomery continued, "And at that time he ran 100 meters, this time it was 400 meters, four times the distance, or even four times the physical exertion! With a score of 43.67 seconds, Zhang Guan certainly does not have any physical reserve! No one in this world can recover physical strength in such a short time! Unless he is a monster... "
"Monster?" Crawford repeated the word and then sighed, "Tim, you use the term very appropriately. Zhang Guan is a monster! An invincible monster!"
...
A city in China.
Gao Jie walked out of the News Building, looking at the empty road, and sighed softly.
Gao Jie is a newspaper art editor. His working hours are different from others. He works at seven o'clock in the evening and starts to typeset and beautify newspapers and periodicals. He finalized the next day's newspaper before twelve, and then he hands over the manuscript to the printing press, and his work was completed.
It was already one o'clock in the morning. After Gao Jie completed the submission, he confirmed that there was no problem with the printing company, and then returned home from work. He dragged his tired body and walked to the parking lot. When he opened the car door, he heard the ringtone of his phone.
"Hey, editor-in-chief, I'm Xiao Gao... I haven't left yet, in the parking lot... Zhang Guan won the 400m gold league championship again? 43 seconds 67, the best result in the last seven years? Tenth in history? For the newspaper you want me to retype? I will go back immediately!" Gao Jie hung up his phone and turned back helplessly to the News Building.
...
The schedule of the Golden League is extremely intensive. Even if Zhang Guan ran out of 43.67 seconds, the organizer did not leave him too much time to celebrate, because the next game is about to take place.
Next is the women's 100-meter hurdles and men's 110-meter hurdles. The women's 100-meter hurdles are only ten minutes apart from the men's 400-meter dash. It can be said that Zhang Guan has just finished running and the athletes who were preparing for the hurdles and then participated in the hurdles also began to prepare for the game.
After the women's 100-meter hurdle ended, there was also a ten-minute gap between the men's 110-meter hurdle. Liu Feiren was about to debut.
However, Liu Feiren's condition seems to be more general today, the starting reaction time reached 0.188 seconds, which is a very unqualified result for Liu Feiren who is good at starting, and finally, Liu Feiren only won the fourth place. French native Ducure won fifth.
The champion of the 110-meter hurdle belongs to American Trammell, the runner-up is American veteran Arnold, and the old opponent of Liu Feiren, Alan Johnson, also had bad luck and abandoned the game halfway.
However, a young teenager has attracted everyone's attention. He is the Cuban player Robers. He won third place in the game and is regarded as a big upset in the game. Zhang Guan knows that until Liu Feiren retires in the future, Robers will be Liu Feiren's biggest competitor.
The women's 100-meter sprint race afterward is also a world-famous competition. This is the comeback battle of the legendary American flying woman Marion Jones. As a result, Jones easily won the championship with a score of 10.92 and presented a more perfect comeback battle than Montgomery.
After the women's 100-meter sprint race, the men's 100-meter sprint battle began immediately, and Zhang Guan was about to debut again.
...
At the starting line, Zhang Guan seemed to be very relaxed and could not see any signs of fatigue.
"Sure enough, Zhang Guan's physical strength has been restored, this monster! Forget it, regardless of him, I will run out of my level!" Powell turned his head to focus on his track.
Since the battle last year, Powell has no hope of defeating Zhang Guan. An athlete who is younger and higher than himself has made Powell unable to challenge the courage. However, Powell, who gave up the idea of competing with Zhang Guan, has improved a lot this year.
On the other side, Shawnn Crawford did not give any hope of being the champion. The 200-meter sprint champion of the Athens Olympics is still very clear about his position. His 100-meter strength is not as good as Zhang Guan, and from the current situation, the 200-meter event is certainly not Zhang Guan's opponent.
Only Montgomery doesn't think so.
"Zhang Guan doesn't look very tired, it must be a bluff! He has just experienced such a fierce 400m race, he can't recover his physical strength in such a short time. The following game, I have a good chance, as long as I can beat Powell, The championship is mine!" Montgomery thought silently. He only played against Zhang Guan once and did not know some of Zhang Guan's unique abilities.
A minute later, the athletes were ready, and with the start of the gunshots, the 100-meter sprint race officially began.
Zhang Guan started normally and accelerated normally. After sixty meters, he already took the lead.
At seventy meters, Powell rushed to the second position and shook Montgomery in surprise.
Montgomery was full of hope that Zhang Guan would slow down due to lack of physical strength, but Zhang Guan ran faster and faster and was the first to cross the finish line with a score of 9.72 seconds. Powell played well, and the final result of 9.77 seconds also showed the strength of super first-class athletes.
The third Montgomery who crossed the finish line looked at the scoreboard, and the expression on his face became very exciting. The result of 9.72 seconds shows that Zhang Guan is not only in good condition, but also has plenty of physical strength, otherwise, it is impossible to support the explosive power of the body.
"Are you surprised?" Crawford walked over to Montgomery, then said, "I just said that Zhang Guan's guy is a monster!"
...
Gao Jie once again left the News Building, looking at the more empty road, he sighed again.
Gao Jie looked at his watch and it was more than two o'clock in the morning. Zhang Guan, a champion of the 400-meter Golden League, made him work more than an hour. He had to re-type and art the newspapers, re-finalize, and then submit the manuscript to the printing company.
"It's finally possible to go home and sleep!" Gao Jie just opened the door and the phone rang again.
"Hey, editor-in-chief, I'm Xiao Gao... I haven't left yet, in the parking lot... Zhang Guan won the 100-meter championship in the Golden League again! The newspaper is going to be reformatted?" Gao Jie almost cried out, "I'll go back immediately... "
The hard-working editor Gao Jie turned around again and walked back to the News Building.
