There are currently six people in the Chinese relay team, including Su Feng and Zhang Peimeng who are the absolute main players, and Chen Zhilong and Liu Yu who are the main players.
Then there are the substitutes Meng Zhang and Hu Kai.
Needless to say, Su Feng's strength is also close to that of Zhang Peimeng.
And now Chen Zhilong and Liu Yu also have results of 10 seconds 12 and 10 seconds 13.
As for substitute Meng Zhang, his current best time is 10.20 seconds, while Hu Kai’s time is 10.21 seconds.
It can be said that this relay team has surpassed any previous team in terms of individual performance.
This aspect is brought about by Su Feng's own performance. Su Feng alone improved the relay team's performance by at least 0.4 seconds!
Then there is the psychological impact of Su Feng on these athletes. Before Su Feng, China's 100-meter record was still 10.17 seconds, and those athletes at that time may not have the potential to break ten seconds.
But because the yellow race has not yet broken the record of ten, there will be a subconscious obstacle in their hearts, and they cannot break the ten-barrier.
Just like in later generations, many people regard 9.58 seconds or 9.50 seconds as a psychological barrier. Until another athlete surpasses this result, people will suddenly realize that the limits of human beings are more than that.
However, after Su Feng appeared, the ten-second barrier was completely broken among the Chinese team members, which further inspired their fighting spirit. If you look closely at the statistics of the national team, you can see that after that, these
The overall performance of the team members is increasing rapidly.
"Okay, everyone, come here." Seeing that today's training was almost completed, Coach Tian clapped his hands and gathered the players.
Looking at these athletes who were all taller and more energetic than him, Coach Tian nodded happily, and then said loudly: "Without Su Feng, our relay team's goal this time is to reach the finals. Do you have confidence?
"
"Yes!" Except for Su Feng, a few people looked at each other. Everyone usually trains without Su Feng. They also have an understanding of where the current results are in the world. Although it is a bit difficult, it is not impossible.
!
"good!"
"Then let me ask again, now that Su Feng is the world record holder, do you have the confidence to complete the Chinese relay team's zero breakthrough and strive for a medal?"
"Yes!" The voices of several people were louder this time. Their own strength was the foundation, and Su Feng was their confidence.
"good!"
"Then disband and go back to rest. Remember, the next month will be very difficult. If anyone can't bear it, just go home. If you can bear it, go and get a medal for the country and the people.
"
When Coach Tian said this, the team members screamed and left one by one. They were all athletes who walked very fast, and soon disappeared.
At this time, He Jun walked over from the side.
"Lao Tian, how are you? I seem very confident about this result." He Jun said with a smile, "For a coach, his teammates are the foundation of his confidence."
"Of course, you have trained a general like Su Feng, how can I still have no confidence? But the pressure is not small. If Su Feng makes it, but doesn't even make it to the finals, I will be the one who will be criticized by the whole country.
"Yeah."
"Of course, there's no coach who doesn't take responsibility, but these guys are pretty good. I don't think you'll have that chance."
…
"At this World Championships in Osaka, the Chinese delegation formed a huge lineup of 60 athletes to participate in 25 events. Both the number and quality are at the forefront of previous World Championships.
Moreover, there are also a number of outstanding athletes such as Su Feng and Liu Yuxiang in our delegation, which fully illustrates the progress of my country's track and field sports.
I believe they will achieve good results this time and give the country and people a satisfactory answer."
On the rostrum, after the director of China's State Sports General Administration finished his last concluding remarks, the teams participating in the 11th World Athletics Championships were officially sworn in to go out.
Although there were 60 athletes, there were a total of 115 people including their entourage. So that afternoon, everyone was divided into two flights and set off for Osaka, Japan.
That evening, all members of the Chinese team arrived in Japan and checked into the hotel under the arrangement of the Japanese organizing committee.
This World Championships is the second time that Asia has hosted the World Athletics Championships.
The first time was also in Japan. In 1991, it was held once in Tokyo, Japan.
The first World Athletics Championships were held in Helsinki in 1983, initially every four years, and after the 1991 Tokyo World Championships, it was changed to every two years.
Even so, because of its short history, the World Championships have only been held 11 times in Osaka, and Japan has held them twice alone. From this, we can also see the importance that Japan attaches to track and field sports.
This is similar to the emphasis China places on Olympic events.
Whether it is the BJ Olympics or the BJ Winter Olympics, China's domestic preparations for them are first-rate.
Although the World Athletics Championships are not as famous as the Olympic Games, they are actually recognized internationally to a similar degree. Together with the Olympic Games and the Football World Cup, they are known as the "three major events in the world".
The 2007 Osaka World Championships attracted a total of about 3,200 athletes and staff from 211 countries and regions. More than 200 countries and regions will broadcast live television, and it is expected to attract about 4 billion people around the world to watch.
Therefore, although Chinese track and field is still at a disadvantage at this point in time, the attention of domestic people and high-level officials is not weaker than that of the Olympic Games.
Therefore, China's domestic CCTV has specially sent a reporting team of 20 people to follow the entire competition. Of course, they are not included in the delegation and have their own action arrangements.
As for the other major domestic media, although they are not as wealthy and powerful as CCTV, they have also sent their own capable reporters to follow up and report, especially on key projects, and their enthusiasm is higher than that of CCTV.
"This is the hotel prepared for you. It's not bad." In the hotel, Su Feng lay on the bed, opened his laptop and used the camera to take a rough picture of the situation in the room, and let the "English Short" opposite him take a look.
Yingduan's words triggered some memories in Su Feng. Thinking about the story of the cardboard bed at the Tokyo Olympics, their current treatment can be said to be in the sky.
"It's really good, but it's definitely not as good as our Olympic Village."
"That's for sure. Our country's Olympic Games are naturally better than theirs. But you have already entered the Olympic Village. I wanted to go there before, but it didn't matter and I didn't go at all."
"That." Su Feng thought for a while. The main body of the Olympic Village has been completed a long time ago, but some details are still being repaired. It is indeed very good. It is true that the Olympics will be held nationwide. Now the aunts and uncles in BJ have begun to learn English.
Some Olympic volunteers have also started training, and the start of the Olympics is really getting closer.
"Haha, that one is not allowed to enter, but I am originally from the sports system. I asked the leader of the field management center and they gave me a pass, so I went to check it out. It was indeed very good." Su Feng
I'm a little embarrassed, after all, this is considered using my privilege.
