Chapter 33 Semifinals

In the interview area, Su Feng was briefly interviewed by several national reporters. He quickly returned to the rest area, took a hot shower and changed into long-sleeved clothes before he breathed a sigh of relief.

After the rain on the opening ceremony, the weather in Helsinki has been relatively cool, which is naturally very friendly for ordinary people, but for athletes, they are still prone to getting sick after sweating after intense exercise.

After that, Su Feng did not stay in the stadium, but returned to the sports village directly.

Although there is still a women's 10,000 match today, Xing Huina will also play, but because it took too long, He Jun and the members of Su Zhi team unanimously suggested that Su Feng go back directly. Su Feng thought about it and became a good person. After all, even if he was present, he couldn't help much.

The sports village of this World Championships is located in Helsinki University of Technology, which actually temporarily occupies the school's student dormitory.

However, the security is very strict. All the students and staff of our school have left. Now only members of delegations with valid documents can be entered at will.

On August 8, Su Feng conducted a simple and systematic warm-up training during the day, and then packed up his things to go to the stadium for pre-match preparations and inspections.

"Oh" Su Feng sighed quietly while He Jun was away.

As expected, it is not much different from Su Feng's memory.

Yesterday, in the women's 10,000-meter competition, Xing Huina was severely disrupted under the double-team of four Ethiopian athletes, and consumed too much physical strength, which eventually led to a loss of gold medals.

The Chinese team also lost one of the most important gold-winning points.

In fact, it is not just this time. In the following years of competition, Xing Huina has never achieved results that match her strength against many Ethiopian players.

She has strength, but the 10,000-meter rule does not limit some tactical obstacles. There are many people on the other side, so there is naturally no way.

Therefore, the domestic attention is now on the 100m men who will start today and the 110 hurdles of men who will start in a few days.

That is, he turned his attention to Su Feng and Liu Yuxiang.

The pressure of athletes in short track straight events like theirs is already greater than that of athletes in medium and long distance running, so the pressure is naturally greater now.

There are still Su Feng and Liu Yuxiang. I really can't imagine what kind of scene would be when Liu Yuxiang faced all this.

"Su Feng, go." He Jun came out of the house with a bag. There were some emergency supplementary items prepared for Su Feng, all of which were brought from the country, and the safety and reliability were absolutely guaranteed.

"Okay." Su Feng nodded, and followed He Jun out of the door with a natural expression. No one could see his appearance as he was under pressure.

Su Feng sat on the bus with headphones in his ears and some relaxing songs he liked.

When He Jun, Wang Zongfang and others next to him saw Su Feng's appearance, they all knew that they did not go up to disturb him.

The men's 100-meter semi-finals and finals will be held one after another tonight. Whether or not the World Championships will be returned empty-handed is decided tonight. It is normal for athletes to be under pressure at this time.

They also saw the news in China that the Chinese team has not won a single medal yet, and Xing Huina, one of the championship seeds, has lost again.

It can be said that the eyes of the whole of China are now on Su Feng and Liu Yuxiang.

But there is no way. If you want to wear a crown, you must bear the weight. He and Liu Yuxiang have won the support of the people across the country, and now they must bear this pressure.

He Jun looked at Su Feng with his eyes closed, and a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes.

He had never seen Su Feng look so stressed.

In the past, Su Feng actually won and lost in domestic competitions, but there were so few people who paid attention to track and field at the beginning.

In some individual track and field competitions, sometimes one-tenth of the audience does not have, or even one-tenth of the audience does not have, and they are almost empty games.

Although the scene was disappointing, the pressure was also much less.

As for the Athens Olympics, after the first shot was completed, the team had no requirements for Su Feng's performance afterwards, and even if the first shot was not passed, no one would blame him.

As for the last step to reaching the bronze medal, it is creating history step by step. No one will put pressure on him at any step.

But now it’s different. I won the bronze medal at the Olympics and Liu Yuxiang’s record-breaking gold medal, the track and field events suddenly seemed to have become the real son of all Chinese people, and Chinese people would see wherever they go.

This change is undoubtedly a good thing for track and field sports. If you pay attention, you will be popular. The Field Management Center and the General Administration have also obtained a lot of funds from Su Feng and Liu Yuxiang, which can increase efforts to cultivate talents.

But this is different for athletes at the forefront.

Nowadays, Chinese people have to see that they are two people who win gold and silver. If they don’t get anything in a large competition like the World Championships, these waves are likely to overwhelm the athletes.

He Jun was already worried about Su Feng's condition. Seeing him pretending to be relaxed, it seemed that this worry had become a reality.

Su Feng does not have as many psychological activities as He Jun now. He is just relaxing. He has pressure, but he is more confident in his strength.

The bus arrived at the Olympic Stadium smoothly. Su Feng calmly got off with the crowd, then ran a few simple laps on the field, and after a while, he came to the inspection room for inspection and recording.

After all this, Su Feng came to the side of the field again and watched the game calmly.

Half an hour later, at 19:20 pm, the 100-meter semi-finals of the Helsinki World Championships officially began, and athletes entered the competition venue one after another.

"Welcome to watch the men's 100m semi-finals of this World Championships. I am the commentator Yang Jian, and now the athletes have begun to enter the field.

It is now 19:20 pm Finnish time and 1:20 AM BJ time. There may be many friends who are working that have not watched this game.

However, according to real-time statistics from the General Office, there are still more than 10 million viewers who stay up late to watch the game. This also shows everyone's attention to Su Feng.

As a track and field enthusiast, I would like to thank everyone for their support for Su Feng.

We see that the camera has been given to eight players, who are already standing in front of the starting line.

The first step is American player Walt Dicks, a very powerful American player. His best result was 9.95 seconds. Su Feng won him in the Athens Olympics and the IAAF New York stop not long ago.

In the second lane, Dutch player Curranti Martina had the best result of 9.94 seconds, and was also a player who could break ten.

In the third lane, Trinidad and Tobago player Mark Burns just ran his personal best in June 2005 9.96.

The fourth step is Sean Crawford, the 200m champion of the Athens Olympics, he is best at 200m, but he only signed up for 100m this World Championship. I wonder if it was influenced by public opinion some time ago.

On the fifth line, Chinese player Su Feng, the bronze medalist at the Athens Olympics, has the best result this year to tie the world record of 9.79 seconds.

On the sixth road, Portuguese star Francis Obicville was fourth in the Athens Olympics after Su Feng, with a personal best score of 9.88 seconds, which is undoubtedly Su Feng's strong opponent.

On the seventh, St. Kitts and Nevis' King Corinth, the 2003 World Paris Championship, won the personal best score of 9.93 seconds.
