Chapter 201

It is around eight or nine o'clock in the morning on the 3rd, local time. Many people are going to school or work, and many people are still on the road. It is a perfect time to check their phones, watch melons and read gossip.

As a result, I watched these foreign media reports quickly rush to the top of Weibo's hot searches.

The onlookers: Huh?

After seeing this news, the reactions of these spectators varied - some were very nervous, worried that Su Yu was really in bad shape, and many others made shocked "old man's face on the subway", seeming to be unable to understand the train of thought of these foreign media.

Of these two types of spectators, the former obviously have not properly tasted the spectators’ past gossips about Su Yu, so they are easily influenced by these media reports.

The latter are the people who have been watching the news for years. When they saw this trending search on Weibo, they all looked strange and wanted to ask these foreign media - when you report it in this way, why not ask the media in your host country how they report on Su Yu?

Yes.

While these foreign media were frantically speculating that Su Yu was in poor condition, the Japanese media who were also present reported on Su Yu in a completely different style.

——"The Wolf Son embraces a humble attitude and modestly says he will 'try his best to meet the challenge'!" 》

——《Takagi Akechi and Kobayashi Yuki admit that Wolf Children is the 'opponent they least want to meet'. 》

——"Wolf Son fully challenges all Olympic sprint events!" The strongest sprinter in Asia may be born today! 》

…

In short, these Japanese media, one wolf son on the left and one wolf son on the right, no one felt that there was any negative meaning behind Su Yu's words "I will try my best to fight back".

:)

After all, they are not blind. Didn't they see that Wolf Son looked very well and relaxed when he got off the car this morning? !

When Wolfson landed in Tampere, Finland before the World Youth Championship, everyone thought he was going to fail.

But in the end, it was proved that it was not the Wolf Sons who were not successful, but their Japanese players.

This time, Wolf Son looked so relaxed, he just modestly said "I will work hard", why do you think he is paving the way for his own inadequate condition? !

These Japanese media claim that they and the Wolf Sons from China are all Asians and are well versed in China's culture of modesty, so they don't think Su Yu is in any bad shape.

As for those foreign media?

Haha, after the 200-meter preliminaries are over, those Westerners will know who holds the truth!

In short, because these Japanese media have been paying attention to Su Yu for various reasons since Su Yu debuted, there are still many Su Yu's track and field fans in Japan today - just like the well-known Japanese track and field commentator Matsumoto Kohei is a die-hard fan of Su Yu, so the Japanese media's news releases on Su Yu are completely different from those of Western media.

When domestic track and field fans and onlookers put the media reports from Western media together with the news reports from Japanese media, most people could not believe that these were news media reports on the same person in the same period of time.

[Wow, this is a living example of both the positive and negative aspects of journalism!] 】

【_(:зゝ∠)_The news dogs were laughing like crazy. To be honest, the mental state of these foreign media is actually quite similar to that of us news dogs - as soon as they heard the other side say one, they immediately wanted to think of four, five, six, seven, eight in their minds. 】

[Wait, shouldn’t journalists seek truth from facts? 】

[Hahahaha, friend in front, what grade are you in this year? Children, don't be so naive.

News is indeed based on facts, but the people who write news are real people. As long as they are human, they are likely to have their own opinions. News without opinions cannot stand.

If you want to write without any personal opinions, it is basically a news release. Taking Su Yu's interview as an example, it would be something like this: On the morning of August 3, Chinese sprinter Su Yu arrived at the Tokyo Olympic Stadium and was interviewed by reporters, saying that he would try his best to compete in the men's 200m sprint preliminaries. 】

[I am dying of laughter, my friend in front, this press release really has that flavor. 】

[Hahahaha, that's right. Yudi currently has such high attention and such a large amount of traffic. What's the point of just issuing a press release about the interview with Su Yu? Of course, they need to add up various hot spots to attract attention in order to achieve their goal of attracting traffic.

Since the purpose and requirements are like this, of course you should write it in the most attractive way! 】

On the domestic Internet today, if Su Yu was an ordinary athlete with little traffic and the domestic public didn’t know enough about him, they might be influenced by these foreign media reports and start to worry.

But there is no way. In fact, long before foreign media criticized Su Yu, domestic media had done this before - not to mention anything else, wasn't there someone who specifically wrote negative press releases to discredit Su Yu earlier?

Going back a little further, the Japanese media once made a similar joke. Haven't you seen that the Japanese media are now eager to praise their Emperor Yu to the sky?

There have been too many "the boy who cried wolf" stories in the past, so now the experienced spectators in China treat these news with a fun attitude.

This also led to the Olympic spectators and spectators who didn't know much about the situation to become nervous for a while, and then gradually became confused when they saw the happy atmosphere on Weibo.

There is no way, just look at what these spectators and track and field fans are doing!

[23333, I really want to fast forward to see the faces of these foreign media after the Yudi preliminaries are over! 】

[Damn, are there any friends watching the game live? Can you see where the press pit is located where the media is gathering? Can anyone pat the faces of those foreign media during the live Yudi preliminaries? 】

[Ever since the Japanese media backed down, it’s been a long time since I could watch something this entertaining! Sure enough, it has to be the Olympics! Look at what was on INS yesterday, it was also very interesting, and today’s foreign media are also full of fun! 】

[+1 for the fun, it's a pity that after the 200m preliminaries are over, there will probably be no more fun of this kind to watch from foreign media. Just look at the Japanese media, they praise Yu Di even more harshly than our domestic media! 】

[Isn’t that so?] Our domestic media still emphasizes reporting truthfully, and serious media will not use such exaggerated words, but the Japanese media is really exaggerated... To be honest, it's quite pleasant to watch them praise Yu Di =w=! 】

Olympic spectators who don’t understand the situation:?

Question marks popped up in the heads of these Olympic spectators, and finally someone couldn't help but ask: [Aren't you worried that Su Yu's condition will not be good in the 200m preliminaries this morning? ? ? 】

[Yes, yes, isn’t it normal for athletes’ performance to fluctuate in competitive sports? What if Su Yu’s condition is really not good? 】

Really not so good?

To be honest, both track and field fans and spectators feel that even if Su Yu’s condition is really not very good, it’s no big deal.

The same thing - Su Yu is only 17 years old this year!

Their Yu Di, at the age of 17, swept all the U18 world best results in 100m, 200m and 400m, and also directly won all the Olympic qualifications for these three events by meeting the performance standards. Now he is fifth in the 100m final and successfully advanced to the 400m final. Let me ask, apart from Yu Di, is there any other U18 sprinter in the world who has achieved this result so far?

Didn’t you see that the eyes of U18 and U20 players all over the world were red with tears?

With this result, let alone U18 and U20 players, there are few adult players who can compare with him, right?

As a supporter of the Chinese team, is there anything you are not satisfied with with this result?

After seeing this, those Olympic spectators who were originally worried suddenly realized - that's right, with Su Yu's achievement, what else could be unsatisfactory?

Perhaps it was the atmosphere of fun that had gradually and inexplicably developed among the domestic spectators and track and field fans in the past two years that quickly led those originally worried Olympic spectators into a ditch.

Soon everyone was immersed in a sea of ​​joy, reading reports from foreign media, Japanese media, and the painful cries of young foreign players whose mentality collapsed on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. They had completely forgotten the tense atmosphere that the foreign media originally wanted to create.

Market Operation and Promotion Department of Field Management Center

The staff responsible for monitoring online public opinion looked at the "thriving" and happy atmosphere on the Internet and felt at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Just half an hour ago, when they saw the foreign media reports and the rapidly rising trending search terms on Weibo, everyone was on high alert, worried that some negative public opinion would arise.

They were still urgently discussing how to guide public opinion, but it turned out that there was no need for them to guide public opinion at all, as public opinion on the Internet had already been automatically, spontaneously and consciously digested.

“This… this is true!”

In the office, the staff of the public opinion supervision team were looking at the happy scene on the Internet and they didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"This is the first time I've seen a public opinion issue resolved so easily..."

What does effortless mean?

That's called effortless.

In other words, everything was over before they had time to put in any effort.

Fortunately, they were ready for battle just now, but in the end it was not their turn to appear on the field at all.

Looking at the result in front of them, the staff of the public opinion supervision team looked at each other and couldn't help laughing again.

"In our country, the only person who can achieve this effect is probably Su Yu, right?"

"Who says it's not?"

It was obvious that a major public opinion was about to emerge, but in less than half an hour, without anything being done, this major public opinion disappeared inexplicably.

A staff member said with emotion: "This is mainly due to Su Yu's achievements, strength and excellent performance!"

Although it is said that the strong will prevail in competitive sports, the athlete standing at the top is not always the most eye-catching. Just like the situation in their country now, the track and field fans and spectators all over the country seem to be playing a large-scale development game.

No one is paying attention to the world's top few athletes in the sprint event. Everyone is looking forward to Su Yu's new achievements and wants to see with their own eyes how high Su Yu can grow step by step.

And most importantly, Su Yu did not disappoint everyone's expectations. His performance in the past few years has been obvious to all. It is precisely because of his solid achievements and hard work that he has achieved step by step that he has gained such public support today.

And someone else said that although fans of competitive sports always say that the winner is the king, in fact, the vast majority of fans are not unreasonable people.

If Su Yu had not achieved the results he has now in the Olympics, but had been eliminated in the preliminaries of the 100m and 400m, then when facing public opinion issues like today, the atmosphere waiting for Su Yu would definitely not be as friendly as it is now.

In other words, if today's problem had occurred on the first day of the competition, when Su Yu had not yet achieved any results, I am afraid that many people would still be skeptical and follow suit and curse on the Internet.

But before today's competition, Su Yu had already achieved results in this Olympics that were enough to conquer any demanding track and field fan.

If anyone insists on targeting Su Yu's 200m preliminaries under the current circumstances, it would not be being harsh, but simply looking for trouble.

These people in the public opinion group have been keeping an eye on various public opinions on the Internet for a long time and have a relatively deep understanding of things on the Internet. In fact, in most cases, most netizens are ordinary and kind. They go online to read gossip and things that interest them, and to have some fun in their spare time.

No one would go out of their way to find fault with others, unless some situation arouses public outrage among netizens, then the public will express their own opinions under the influence of this public opinion storm.

In short, the public opinion supervision team here breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the topic on Weibo had gradually become a hot search topic on the Internet, attracting a lot of attention.

"Alright, it's okay. Everyone, relax. When the men's 200-meter sprint preliminaries start, cheer up and be serious."

Everyone in the group immediately responded with an "OK", and then began to look forward to Su Yu's game.

***

In the backcourt lounge of the Tokyo Olympic Stadium in Japan

Su Yu and his teammates had no idea about what was happening on the domestic Internet. From the moment they arrived at the backcourt locker room, no one had touched their phones - this was actually the instruction from the coaching staff, not to look at phones before the game, as public opinion on the Internet might affect the players' mentality.

Su Yu didn't care about these things, and apart from him, Gao Yansong and Zhan Youming would certainly not disobey this rule.

At this time in the backcourt lounge, Su Yu, Gao Yansong and Zhan Youming were sitting on long benches to rest. The staff who occasionally came in and out could see that among the three, Su Yu and Zhan Youming were obviously more relaxed, but Gao Yansong's condition was not quite right.

After a staff member walked out of the lounge, he saw Zheng Sheng waving at him not far away, so the staff member naturally walked over.

"How about it?"

Zheng Sheng asked.

The staff member told Zheng Sheng what he saw truthfully: "Xiao Zhan and Su Yu will definitely be fine. They are both in a relaxed state, but Gao Yansong may not be able to do well..."

At this point, the staff member hesitated for a moment: "When I went in and out just now, I felt that Gao Yansong seemed to be startled. He looked a little too nervous..."

Zheng Sheng was also a little worried when he heard this.

He also saw that Gao Yansong was in poor condition.

Now he is a little regretful. He should have insisted with the General Administration of Sports and let Zhou Yuang take the 200-meter entry quota. Although most officials of the General Administration of Sports and the Athletics Administration Center are reasonable, there are always some people who like to rank people based on seniority. They think that Su Yu is enough as a young athlete. Should all the athletes be arranged to participate?

Besides, Gao Yansong also got the invitation spot based on his average score in the IAAF points ranking. Although it was Zhou Yuang who won the final victory in the Olympic trials with a score of 0.03 seconds, the difference between the two results was not much!

Anyway, the burden of advancing and winning medals lies on Zhan Youming and Su Yu. So, instead of giving the remaining player to a kid like Zhou Yuang whose performance is still unstable, it is better to give it to a veteran like Gao Yansong.

When the national team's sprint group heard this decision, they were not very satisfied. They generally felt that strength was the key. Since Zhou Yuang won the Olympic trials, he should have been selected even if he only won by 0.03 seconds.

But in the end, I still had to give some face to the Sports Federation and didn't want to argue with the people above me, so I decided to give up.

Afterwards, Zhou Yuang was arranged to be one of the substitute players of the relay team. In fact, it was somewhat of a compensation mentality. First, to bring Zhou Yuang to Tokyo to see the world. Second, this little guy's strength is really good. If there is really a need for a substitute to participate in the competition, or if Su Yu's condition is really not suitable for participating in the preliminaries, using a substitute lineup in the preliminaries of the 4*100m is also a strategy.

But at this moment, when Zheng Sheng observed Gao Yansong's condition himself and heard what the staff said, the feeling of regret in his heart became even stronger.

It’s not that he was unwilling to give the contestant a chance, but he saw that Gao Yansong was about to mess up the opportunity in front of him.

Zheng Sheng paced back and forth outside the lounge anxiously.

Gao Yansong didn't have this problem when he was a relay team player in the past. How come he is so cowardly now that he is competing in an individual event...

Because he was too worried about Gao Yansong's situation, Zheng Sheng had no time to worry about Su Yu and Zhan Youming's situation.

No matter how anxious he was, he had already explained everything that needed to be said to the contestants, including the past few days, when he took Liu Qinlong and a few others to do some psychological work on Gao Yansong after noticing his nervousness.

Unfortunately, this psychological work doesn't seem to have much effect.

Now that the preliminaries are about to begin, it is too late to say anything. Zheng Sheng can only calm himself down and not let his condition bring pressure to the players.

So he instructed the staff again, asking them not to show any strange attitude and affect Gao Yansong.

The staff member was also used to working in the national team and knew how much the players' pre-match pressure and condition would affect the game. He nodded immediately and said, "Coach Zheng, don't worry. I know."

In the lounge, Su Yu and Zhan Youming were resting with their eyes slightly closed, and he only opened his eyes when the warm-up time was about to begin.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he noticed the tense state of Gao Yansong.

When Su Yu saw Gao Yansong's state, he blinked and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't speak.

He had read a lot of information and of course knew how serious the impact of the players' emotional state on the game was. But at this point in time, it was too late for others to say anything to Gao Yansong.

One can only hope that he can relieve his emotional tension through warming up during the warm-up phase.

But unfortunately, Su Yu's expectation was not achieved.

During the warm-up phase of the preliminaries, Gao Yansong had already seen the athletes in the same group as him - Gao Yansong's 200m preliminaries were in the first group, and he was also the first of the three Chinese team athletes to appear.

The preliminary group he was in was not very strong. For example, one of the athletes from El Salvador had a personal best of only 21.23 seconds, and was destined to be at the bottom of this game.

But apart from this, Gao Yansong, whose personal best historical result is 20.53 seconds, is the second-to-last player in the group with the lowest personal best historical result.

In fact, to be honest, Su Yu has experienced many such situations - being last, second to last, or third in personal history bests are all common things for Su Yu. Mature players know that personal history bests are nothing in a game. Whether one can successfully advance in a game depends on the player's personal performance and state in this game.

It’s just that Su Yu can think this way, but Gao Yansong can’t.

During the warm-up phase, Gao Yansong's mental state was tense to a higher point. Then, when the preliminaries really started, Gao Yansong's tension, which had been stretched to the limit, finally broke with the sound of the starting gun...

With a snap, it broke.

“…! He ran away!”

In the live commentary room of the sports channel, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming both sighed with regret the moment they saw Gao Yansong's false start.

What a pity.

Both Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming could see that Gao Yansong took this Olympic Games too seriously, which ultimately led to him being overly nervous and getting sent off the field for a false start in the preliminaries.

At the moment when he was sure that he had falsely started, Gao Yansong hugged his head in pain, and finally knelt on the track and pounded the ground, then he got up in a daze and left the stadium under the guidance of the staff.

Before leaving the stadium, Gao Yansong looked back at his opponents on the field with a dazed look, and finally silently followed the guidance of the staff and left the stadium.

Gao Yansong once thought that he would most likely be eliminated in the first round of the Olympics, but he did not expect that in the end he would not even qualify for a first-round elimination and was actually sent off the field for a false start.

Until Gao Yansong returned to the backcourt lounge, his condition was still not quite right. Zheng Sheng simply did not go to the Chinese players' area to watch the game today. He had been guarding in the backcourt since the start of the game. After seeing Gao Yansong coming back in a daze, he stepped forward, put his arm around Gao Yansong's shoulders and hugged him.

"Okay, wake up, isn't it just a false start?"

Gao Yansong looked at Zheng Sheng in silence, his face painful: "Coach Zheng, I wasted this 200-meter Olympic qualification!"

Zheng Sheng looked at him and patted him on the shoulder: "Alright, you have earned this qualification through your own achievements and performance. There is nothing to waste."

Gao Yansong still looked depressed.

Zheng Sheng couldn't stand his look, and finally glared at him: "Come on, who are you looking down on? Where is the spirit you had when you were traveling around the world to qualify for the Olympics?"

When Gao Yansong heard Zheng Sheng's words, he couldn't help but recall how he traveled around the world to compete this season, hoping to qualify for the Olympics.

At that time, his only goal was to qualify for the Olympics, and he would do his best to achieve better results no matter how hard and difficult the competition was.

Yes.

Where did his sharpness at that time go?

It seems that after he finally qualified for the Olympics, and learned that his Olympic trials results were not as good as Zhou Yuang's, and that Zhou Yuang had won consecutive victories and set new records in the World Youth Championships...

He began to get more and more nervous, worrying that the national team's coaching staff would regret giving him this spot.

He began to constantly tell himself that he must achieve a good result in the competition to prove himself.

But the more he thought about it, the more mental pressure he felt, to the point where he ended up causing such a big mess in the preliminaries.

Zheng Sheng saw that Gao Yansong seemed to have gradually figured out his thoughts, so he patted Gao Yansong on the shoulder and said, "That's enough. Which athlete hasn't had a false start?"

Zheng Sheng was just about to continue to give Gao Yansong some chicken soup, but Gao Yansong somehow came up with a brilliant idea and replied in a daze: "Su Yu."

Zheng Sheng: “…”

Gao Yansong: "...Su Yu has never rushed ahead."

Six silent dots popped up on Zheng Sheng's head, and then he slapped Gao Yansong's head viciously with a speechless look on his face.

After Gao Yansong covered his head in pain, Zheng Sheng waited for him to cover his head and glared at him: "You deserve it!"

I don’t know why, but after these two outrageous conversations, the tense atmosphere between the two of them suddenly dissipated, and Gao Yansong suddenly felt that the lingering depression around him had also dissipated.

Zheng Sheng looked at Gao Yansong in silence and said to him, "It's OK, you're awake now. I tell you, you're still young. If you can't do well in this Olympics, you may still have hope in the next one."

"Look at Zheng Tianxi, who is a hundred meters away. He and Feng Chuming are both late bloomers. If they can do it, you may be able to do it too."

"After the Olympics, continue to train and compete well, got it?"

Gao Yansong had indeed recovered by now. He sighed silently and nodded to Zheng Sheng: "I understand. Thank you, Coach Zheng."

Zheng Sheng waved his hand and said nothing.

At this moment, Gao Yansong spoke up himself: "... Coach Zheng, will my false start in the preliminaries have a big impact on Su Yu?"

Zheng Sheng understood what Gao Yansong meant - Su Yu was a player in the second group of preliminaries today. When a teammate started early in the first shot of the first group, it might have a certain impact on Su Yu's subsequent performance.

His face darkened and he said nothing.

Gao Yansong also had a look of regret on his face - it was okay if he didn't run well in the preliminaries, but if it affected Su Yu and prevented Su Yu from advancing from the preliminaries, that would be a big sin!

It was at this time that Gao Yansong finally had the energy to pay attention to the final result data of the first group of preliminaries on the live broadcast screen. After seeing the final result data of the first group of preliminaries, Gao Yansong felt even more regretful.

In the first group of the preliminaries just now, the top three players who advanced directly had scores of 20.30 seconds, 20.38 seconds and 20.80 seconds respectively.

The performance data of this player who advanced directly... If he hadn't rushed the race because of excessive nervousness, as long as he performed well in the competition, he would definitely have a chance to qualify directly!

Unfortunately, it's all too late now.

Gao Yansong shook his head after a long sigh. He was now closely watching the situation on the field - the second group of preliminaries had already appeared, and Su Yu was in this preliminaries group.

He now only hoped that his recent situation did not have too much impact on Su Yu.

***

In the live commentary room of the domestic sports channel, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming also seemed a little nervous after seeing Su Yu appear on the court.

"In the first group of the preliminary round just now, our athlete Gao Yansong accidentally jumped the gun due to excessive tension and pressure. I hope Gao Yansong's jumping the gun did not bring too much pressure and impact to Su Yu..."

At the same time, on the live broadcast room of Jigu Video, the track and field fans and spectators who were originally in a very relaxed state now became a little nervous——

[Ahhhh, damn, how could such an unexpected situation suddenly occur? ! 】

[SOS, although Yudi's condition has always been very stable, he will still be affected to some extent, right? 】

Most people were worried about Su Yu's situation, and there were also some who complained about Gao Yansong. However, most people also knew that under tremendous pressure, it was not difficult to understand why a foul like a false start would occur.

Now they were in no mood to complain, all they wanted was for Su Yu to pass the preliminaries smoothly...

***

At this moment in the competition, Su Yu's condition is much better than the audience expected.

In fact, when Gao Yansong was penalized for a false start, Su Yu frowned and thought for a while. In the 200-meter preliminaries, did he need to go all out to get a good result and restore the audience's confidence in the Chinese team?

But after thinking for a moment, Su Yu still believed that he should keep himself stable - there was no need to run so hard.

If he can easily win the 200m preliminaries, it will not only be beneficial to his physical fitness for the next race, but will also give the audience confidence.

Although Brother Yansong was penalized for a false start, he is in this group and Zhan Youming is in the sixth preliminaries group. The steady performance of the two of them is enough to give the audience confidence.

If he rushes too aggressively during the game, it will bring tension to the audience and will also have a certain impact on his physical energy distribution today.

After figuring out the key, Su Yu regained his calm and relaxed state.

Similar to the first group of the preliminaries, the average strength of the players in his second group of semi-finals was not that strong.

Before the game, Su Yu estimated that it would not be difficult to successfully advance in this preliminary group.

In this case, he just needs to keep his mentality stable.

With this thought in mind, Su Yu calmly stood in his seventh lane and adjusted the angle and position of his starting block.

And when he squatted on the starting blocks at the starter's command of "on your marks" and got ready to start, the starting gun sounded on the scene - bang!

As a result, before the official starter on the scene shouted "Race start", the official starter blew the whistle again - someone started a false start!

Someone else is running ahead!

In two consecutive sets of preliminaries, there were players who committed false starts in the first shot!

Not only were the audience at the scene shocked, but Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming in the live commentary room of the domestic sports channel also felt quite emotional when watching the situation in front of them.

"This is the Olympics - for athletes, this is the ultimate dream of their careers. The bigger the dream, the greater the pressure on the athletes."

“In the arena of glory, some people move forward towards their dreams, while others leave with regret, but they have all worked hard for their dreams.”

As veteran commentators of track and field events, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming have seen many athletes’ ups and downs over the years, but they still have such feelings every time they attend the Olympic Games.

After such an exclamation, the Czech athlete who committed the offense was quickly sent off the field, and then the remaining seven athletes in the second group of preliminaries squatted back on the starting blocks.

Perhaps having learned the lesson from the two consecutive groups of players committing fouls, when the second shot of the preliminaries of this group was fired, the players were more conservative in their starting reactions.

Even Su Yu's reaction time at the start was only 0.158 seconds.

Because of the false start just now, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming couldn't tell whether Su Yu was starting off with a relaxed pace or because he was affected and his reaction speed was slowed down. Both of them tacitly did not mention this point, but watched Su Yu on the field start his pace.

"The game has started! Su Yu looks pretty good!"

only……

Tian Ruhui looked at him and felt that although Su Yu's condition was indeed very relaxed and good, he did not seem to be in a particularly good condition.

Su Yu's performance made Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming a little nervous, but fortunately this was the preliminaries and the strength of this group of players was relatively average, so although Su Yu seemed to have average performance in the start and acceleration, in the first 100 meters of the curve stage, Su Yu always maintained a fourth or fifth position in the middle.

This ranking seems pretty good...

But you have to know that this is just the preliminaries, right?

Regarding Su Yu's condition and strength, this is definitely not his normal ability state.

At this time, a strange idea finally flashed through the minds of Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming. So, when Gao Yansong was sent off for false start and another player was sent off for false start in the second group of preliminaries, Su Yu still managed to keep his composure. In this group of competitions...

Easy water release? !

After thinking of this possibility, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming both fell silent - what kind of mental quality does Su Yu have? !

You know, this is the Olympic arena!

But even if this was an Olympic arena, Su Yu really did it!

On the track in front of him, after Su Yu turned from the curve into the straight road, he still accelerated and overtook his opponent to come in third place, but his overtaking did not look like 'teleportation' like in the past.

At this point, everyone could see that Su Yu was letting the attack go.

Even in the last 20 meters, everyone could see that Su Yu slowed down in the last 20 meters because he had left his opponents far behind.

Then, with this slowed-down result and third place in the group, he successfully secured a place in the men's 200m sprint semi-finals in the preliminary group!

The author has something to say:

Oooooh!

Speaking of which, the 17-year-old 400-meter runner mentioned in the previous article

Ran under 46 seconds (indoor sprint), breaking the national record for the second time (← indoor short track)

His current result is the tenth in the history of U20... (←Because he will turn 18 this year, it can only be counted as the historical ranking of U20)

I hope this boy can have good results in the next outdoor season...!
