After Quitting the Sports World, I Became a God of Cooking

Su Bai, as a track and field athlete with no prospects, decided to retire due to a lack of hope for improving his results.

But when Su Bai officially submitted his retirement application, his...

Chapter 146 (Update 1)

“Cross the finish line!”

"In the final sprint of the 110-meter hurdles, Fabregas, Cui Luoheng and McReady crossed the finish line almost at the same time! But from the footage just now, we can see that there is still a visible gap between McReady's speed and Fabregas and Cui Luoheng!"

In the live broadcast room of the sports channel, Shao Minyi keenly pointed out the gap between the three players in the final stage. After clarifying this information, it is at least certain that Cui Luoheng has firmly secured a top three spot in this competition!

At the scene, after crossing the finish line, Cui Luoheng still had the momentum from the final sprint, so he rushed forward another three to five meters before slowing down. Behind him, Kalinic on the eighth track had just crossed the line.

After crossing the finish line in lane 7, Fabregas quickly turned his attention to Cui Luoheng's direction - just on the track just now, in order to avoid being affected by the Chinese player in lane 9, he forced his attention to the front. On this track, Cui Luoheng's speed and condition made him feel threatened.

This new face from China is definitely a ferocious beast that has never been discovered on the 110-meter hurdles track!

In the track just now, the ninth lane where Cui Luoheng was located was relatively far away from the outermost lane. The ones who really paid attention to his speed were Kalinic in the eighth lane and Fabregas in the seventh lane.

McReady, who was on the third track, did not distract his attention from the other two tracks in the race. He was always focused on his own speed and the gap between him and Tanui. Even at this moment when he had reached the end of the track, he still thought that he had just lost slightly to Fabregas in the race and was still ranked third in this game.

After crossing the finish line, Kalinić, who was behind Cui Luoheng, stared at Cui Luoheng with a very exaggerated look for a long time. Until Cui Luoheng looked back at him strangely, Kalinić showed an expression of amazement, spread his hands, shook his head at Cui Luoheng, and gave him a thumbs up.

"Amazing! Your speed is really too fast. It completely disrupted my rhythm."

Kalinic looked helpless when he thought of how he was distracted and his rhythm was disrupted by Cui Luoheng in the stage before the hurdles. Because his rhythm was completely disrupted, his condition in the latter part of the game was really not very good. When he just crossed the finish line, he was already ranked seventh.

After seeing Kalinic's gesture, Cui Luoheng nodded to him and thanked him for the compliment.

In the high jump preparation area, Ye Wenhao, who watched Cui Luoheng's performance in person, also had an expression of admiration on his face: "I couldn't see the last part clearly, but Ah Heng, this guy, is sure to be in the top three, right? It's really amazing that he can get a medal in his first track and field challenge."

After hearing this, Wang Shen smiled mysteriously.

?

"Lao Wang, what are you laughing at? Why do I always feel that there is nothing good about your laughter?"

"Well, nothing." Wang Shen glanced at Ye Wenhao, whose sixth sense seemed quite sharp, and then smiled and said, "What do you think of Ah Heng's condition?"

Hearing this question, Ye Wenhao was stunned: "What's the matter? Doesn't this look pretty good?"

Wang Shen smiled again: "Do you still think he has a bad mental quality?"

"Huh?" Ye Wenhao scratched his head after hearing this and said, "No, right? I see Ah Heng, this guy, always looks very nervous with a blank expression before every competition, but he is in good condition every time... From the previous Asian Games to the Asian Championships, and then to this IAAF Challenge, this is his first time participating in the IAAF Challenge. I remember that he said that his opponents this time are all very strong? He has won the top three, right? If he still has a bad mentality, then can our national team still have good mentality?"

Ye Wenhao touched his chin when he said this: "Before the game, I saw that he was still a little worried. Now... But Lao Wang, why are you asking this?"

Hearing Ye Wenhao's words, Wang Shen's smile deepened. If you look closely, there might be a hint of gloating. He said, "Nothing, but I think Schrödinger's cat box has been opened."

……?

? ? ? ?

ha?

Wang Shen’s words made Ye Wenhao full of question marks. What did this mean? ? ?

"Uh, no... Lao Wang, can you say something I can understand?"

Ye Wenhao looked at Wang Shen, with question marks on his face.

Wang Shen smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, the third round of trial jumps is about to begin, let's get ready first."

……?

ha?

oh.

Although Ye Wenhao still didn't quite understand what Wang Shen said, his attention was easily diverted by Wang Shen. He moved his body slightly and began to prepare for the next round of trial jumps.

In the domestic live broadcast room of the sports channel, the audience is excitedly commenting on the screen crazily. Even though it is late at night and there are not many people around, these die-hard track and field fans are still expressing the momentum of millions of people in the screen.

[Ahhhh, Xiao Cui is awesome!] If I saw it correctly just now, he killed McReady, right? ? ? 】

[Wipe, wipe, wipe. Where are the grades?] There is also a slow-motion picture of the finish line! ! Let’s take a quick look at Xiao Cui’s final results? ? 】

[No, I can't see the results. I'm so anxious right now. What's wrong with this director? Why doesn't he replay it in slow motion? 】

The comments were noisy, with everyone speculating on Cui Luoheng's final result.

The top three have basically been determined, but who is the second or third?

besides……

If Cui Luoheng was able to beat McCready today, it is very likely that his speed in the 110-meter hurdles today was also within 13.32 seconds. This means that Cui Luoheng is very likely to be one of the first athletes to achieve the qualifying results in track and field for the Tokyo Olympics!

With these expectations, the audience in front of the TV was already restless and wanted to know the final result and results of this game immediately!

Fortunately, the live director's actions were only a little slow, and the live broadcast soon cut to the slow motion of the final finish line of the race. When the live director switched to the final finish line shot, he directly used the tracking slow-motion picture of a jib camera above the track. From the slow-motion picture, we can see that to the naked eye it seemed that the three people crossed the finish line almost at the same time. In fact, McCready was the slowest, and the distance between Cui Luoheng and Fabregas was just millimeters.

From the visual effects, we can see that when crossing the finish line, Cui Luoheng subconsciously leaned forward and lowered his body, which allowed his head, shoulders, neck and torso to cross the finish line first.

Although Fabregas also made the same move, he was slightly slower than Cui Luoheng.

When Shao Minyi and Li Sen saw this clear picture in the live broadcast room of the sports channel, they both shouted excitedly.

"Second place!!! In the 110m hurdles event of the IAAF World Challenge Jamaica, our athlete Cui Luoheng performed outstandingly, beating international 110m hurdles champions Fabregas and McReady, and won the runner-up of this game!!"

In China, in the coaching dormitory of the national track and field team training base, Su Bai calmly watched the result of the competition, lowered his head and silently circled Cui Luoheng's name on the form he had casually recorded, then gently turned the page and no longer paid attention to this part.

Finally, after glancing at the status data on Cui Luoheng's panel in the system, he crossed out the hanging data, leaving only Wang Shen's dynamic data hanging aside.

At the scene, McReady still didn't know that he had already been squeezed out of the top three in the final ranking. He was looking at the big screen, waiting for his final result. He wanted to see whether the result he ran today was the same as his expectations.

As a result, when the director replayed the slow-motion footage of the final finish line on the big screen on site, he was completely surprised to find that he was not the third in the race. Even Fabregas, who he originally thought was the runner-up, only won the third place.

The real runner-up turned out to be the Asian player whom he had just met for the first time during the pre-match warm-up...

Of course, now he knows that it is a player from China.

Incredible thoughts filled McReady's mind. He held his head in his hands and looked at his opponents around the field with confusion. In fact, there were many people who were as surprised as he was, including his teammate Tanui.

In the audience seats, because the distance is far and the speed of a race like the 110-meter hurdles is too fast, when multiple athletes cross the finish line at the same time, the audience may not be able to see the athletes' rankings clearly from a first-person perspective.

Originally, the audience at the Jamaica Stadium believed that in this game, Tanui and McReady both won two of the top three spots. However, after watching the slow-motion replay just now, they discovered that McReady had been squeezed to fourth place.

When this slow-motion footage was replayed on the big screen, the audience cried out in disbelief, making the scene seem a little noisy.

As the slow-motion footage ended, the judging panel also submitted the final results of the competition.

Domestically, on the sports channel, Shao Minyi and Li Sen both breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the final results.

"The final results of the 110m hurdles in the Jamaica World Challenge are: first place: Tanui (Jamaica) 13.03 (wind speed 0.3 m/s), second place: Cui Luoheng (China) 13.19 (wind speed 0.3 m/s), third place: Fabregas (France) 13.20 (wind speed 0.3 m/s), fourth place..."

The audience waiting for the live broadcast were also stunned after seeing this result.

Then, a question like this flashed across the bullet screen in the live broadcast room:

[Oh shit, has Xiao Cui... already broken the 13.20 second barrier? ! 】

At the same time, Shao Minyi, who had just finished reporting the results of the athletes, immediately congratulated Cui Luoheng: "Congratulations to Cui Luoheng! With a score of 13.19 seconds, he easily won the qualification for the Tokyo Olympics!!"
