Chapter 233 (End of Text)

After the semi-finals, the moment Su Yu returned to the backcourt lounge, the Chinese team's logistics support team quickly took action.

At the last Tokyo Olympics, the track and field team's logistics group had already formed an effective logistics support plan. Four years later in Paris, France, the track and field team's logistics support team, after absorbing advanced international experience year by year, brought their own experience to this year's Paris Olympics in France.

In the backcourt lounge, the liquid nitrogen cryotherapy chamber had already been prepared, and as soon as Su Yu returned to the lounge, he was sent to the lounge compartment where the liquid nitrogen cryotherapy chamber was located.

All the Chinese team staff present already knew the answer Su Yu gave when he was interviewed by foreign media the day before. Everyone was nervous at this moment, but no one would let their nervousness affect Su Yu's condition at this moment.

When Su Yu came out of the liquid nitrogen cryotherapy chamber and continued to receive a simple massage from Liao Yongming of the massage team, the Chinese team had already prepared a lounge compartment specifically for Su Yu.

Su Yu likes quietness.

In other words, many players prefer a quieter environment before the game so that they can adjust their state.

Chen Yifei and Ye Minghao, who had already finished the semi-finals, did not disturb Su Yu who was resting alone in the lounge. Everyone present was working hard to create the best environment for Su Yu to rest and prepare for the competition.

At this moment, in the lounge waiting for the final to begin, in addition to Su Yu, there was also Pei Dingshan who was also sitting quietly in the lounge.

In the past, Pei Dingshan always quietly accompanied Su Yu outside the lounge, but since some time ago, when Su Yu was quietly preparing for the competition in the lounge, Pei Dingshan also began to quietly accompany him.

The two of them were in the lounge, and there was actually no conversation between them. However, in this room that was so quiet that other people might feel depressed, Pei Dingshan's presence seemed to represent a kind of silent safety and companionship.

Pei Dingshan usually wears a mechanical watch on his left wrist. In this extremely quiet room, the only sound is the clicking sound of the second hand of the mechanical watch.

At this moment, Su Yu quietly closed his eyes, and Pei Dingshan, who was sitting opposite him, also calmly lowered his eyes. Only occasionally would he look up at Su Yu, who had grown into a young man.

Pei Dingshan actually still remembers the scene when he first saw Su Yu, a child with obvious physical defects but with wonderful talents.

He could no longer remember how he had made up his mind in an instant to take this child under his wing. The memory of that time was so clear and vivid, yet also hazy and fuzzy.

Pei Dingshan had thought about this many times - if he had given up on Su Yu during the S Province Sports Team's summer camp that year, this would probably be the thing he regretted most in his life.

Fortunately, he did not give up, which led to the current Su Yu who has grown into the leader of the men's sprinting team of the Chinese track and field team.

Over the years, he has participated in shaping all the plans for Su Yu's professional career, including the arrangement of every game and the adjustment of every training. His shadow is present in everything about Su Yu, but what he knows more clearly in his heart is that between him and Su Yu, it is not that Su Yu cannot leave him, but that he can no longer imagine what his life would be like without Su Yu.

“Click, click…”

The slight sound of the mechanical watch's hands turning seemed to become the quieting background sound in the lounge. Apart from that, even the breathing sounds between Pei Dingshan and Su Yu were barely audible.

The rest time passed by in such a quiet atmosphere. Finally, when the door of the lounge was knocked by the staff of the Chinese team——

"Team Yu, it's time to warm up and prepare for the game."

At this time, Su Yu opened his eyes, stood up, and looked at Pei Dingshan who had also stood up in front of him.

Pei Dingshan looked at Su Yu in front of him, smiled, opened his arms and gently hugged him: "Good luck in the game, I will always be with you outside the court."

Whether successful or failed, he will always be the first to offer his blessings and hugs off the court.

The moment Pei Dingshan held him in his arms, Su Yu responded with a serious "OK".

***

It is 9:10 p.m. Paris time, which is 3:10 a.m. China time. Although it is already late at night, as the time approaches 3:10 a.m., many people are surprised to find that the number of people online in the Jigu Video live broadcast room has been rising steadily since 3 o'clock.

In the live broadcast room, the first comment from a group of viewers who had just entered was "Has it started?"

[Ahhh, has it started? Has it started? Am I not late? 】

[Here it comes. I was afraid that the alarm on my cell phone wouldn’t wake me up before going to bed, so I took out the mechanical alarm clock I used in school. It works amazingly! 】

[It’s 3:05, and there are still 5 minutes left. Ahhhh, I’m so nervous! 】

[The last 5 minutes, help, I am so nervous that my scalp is numb...]

[To be honest, today I went to the most efficacious temple in our area to pray and pray that everything goes well...! 】

At this moment, there were all kinds of comments on the public screen in the live broadcast room, but they were all blessings and expectations for the game.

In the live commentary room of the sports channel, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming were already nervously waiting for the start of the men's 100-meter sprint final.

Everyone knew what Su Yu said when he was interviewed by foreign media after the preliminaries ended the day before, and everyone was expecting the same thing, but everyone tacitly did not mention the two most crucial words.

The audiences, both at the scene and in front of the TV, were cautious, not wanting to put too much pressure on Su Yu, but everyone was also secretly looking forward to the arrival of a wonderful possibility.

Finally, as the time on the scene came to 9:10 pm local time in Paris, the entrance channel for the finalists of the men's 100-meter sprint final of the Paris Olympics was officially opened at this moment -

Elijah Rogers from the United States, Romario Ferguson from Jamaica, Federico Segli, the men's 100m sprint champion of the last Tokyo Olympics from Italy... and Su Yu, a talented athlete from China who has mastered the men's 100m, 200m and even 400m events!

When Su Yu's figure appeared on the huge floor-to-ceiling screen outside the finalists' channel, the entire stadium's audience seats erupted with boiling cheers like a volcanic eruption.

"Su-Yu!!!"

The enthusiastic cheers undoubtedly represented everyone's expectations and support for Su Yu.

And when the Chinese player appeared from the finalists' entrance channel, the cheers and screams at the scene reached their peak.

"Let's welcome him together - he is the men's 100m, 200m and 400m sprinter from the Chinese team, and he is also the youngest bronze medalist in the sprint event in Olympic history!"

The official commentator at the scene in Paris was obviously also very familiar with this talented player from China. At this moment, he was reviewing Su Yu's past career achievements in an excited voice.

"In the post-match interview of yesterday's men's 100m sprint preliminaries, this young talent from China announced to the world that he would challenge for the Olympic 100m sprint gold medal - in tonight's 100m sprint battle, will he be able to achieve his wish? Let's look forward to his performance together!"

Along with the passionate introduction of the official commentator and the enthusiastic cheers of the audience, Su Yu's figure has appeared in front of everyone.

And the moment Su Yu came on the stage, the other players who had already entered the stage also turned their eyes in the direction of Su Yu.

Four years ago, when Su Yu made his debut in the Olympic 100m sprint final, no one thought he would be a threat to them. But now, four years later, when Su Yu stood on the field again, no one on the field dared to underestimate the existence of this talented player from the Chinese team.

From the moment Su Yu came on the stage, or perhaps from the moment everyone was preparing for the competition in the warm-up area, tension had already been building between the eight 100-meter sprinters.

Su Yu wants to win the championship in this 100-meter sprint competition.

Don't they want to?

As long as a player enters this competition, he or she definitely has his or her own ambitions in his or her heart.

And now, this battle intertwined with ambition and strength is about to officially begin!

On the field, the nine contestants from the second to the ninth lane were all ready, and the audience in the stadium's stands had already begun to keep quiet under the guidance of the on-site electronic screen and the official commentator.

A sense of anxiety hidden beneath the calm has quietly ignited on the field.

finally--

"Everyone, take your positions!"

The official starter on site gave the first command of the race at the trackside.

After the command, the eight athletes on the field quickly walked around to their starting blocks, supported themselves with their hands, and then quickly squatted on their respective starting blocks, holding the blue and purple tracks on both sides of their bodies with their hands, waiting for the next command from the starter.

Plop, plop.

The entire stadium seemed silent and yet so frenzied that it was impossible to calm down. Almost every player could hear the thumping of his or her own heart.

Everyone is suppressing the power in their bodies, just waiting for the moment of final explosion——

finally!

When the official starter on site confirmed that all the contestants were ready, the second command finally sounded on the field!

"preparation!"

At this moment, the sounds of the whole world seemed to have stopped, and everyone's eyes were focused on the direction of the 100-meter track. At this moment, the eight athletes on the field had already quickly supported themselves on the ground with their hands, raised their hips, slightly bent their knees, and leaned their body center of gravity slightly forward.

It was also at this moment that the official starter on the scene pulled the trigger in his hand——

"Bang!"

The starting gun sounds!

“The game begins!!!”

In the live commentary room of the domestic sports channel, the voices of Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming quickly burst out at this moment. From the excitement in their tone, it can be known that they also have an expectation for the Olympic final that they dare not say out loud!

The game begins!

Su Yu, who was in the fifth lane of the track, stepped on the starting blocks and started quickly the moment the starting gun sounded!

From the moment he pushed off the starting blocks, Su Yu seemed to have a feeling that was quite different from what he expected.

He originally thought that he would go all out from the moment he started running, but in today's race, every step he took seemed easier and smoother than he expected.

Everything seemed to be going smoothly, and his speed and rhythm were not behind those of his opponents... and even slightly surpassed them!

In the live commentary room of the domestic sports channel, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming were also observing Su Yu's condition with excitement.

"Su Yu is currently in the first echelon!"

"Very good start, Su Yu, keep it up!!!"

Everyone knows that Su Yu from the Chinese team is best at late-game bursts and sprints - whether it is a 100-meter, 200-meter or 400-meter race, Su Yu's late-game bursts and sprints are his most terrifying weapon.

Four years ago, because he was still young, his muscle strength and explosive power were inferior to those of adult athletes. Therefore, Su Yu's starting point was also at a disadvantage compared to the world's top athletes.

But four years have passed in a flash. In today's Olympic arena, Su Yu may still not look strong, but his muscle strength and explosive power are no longer comparable to what they were four years ago.

As he grew older, his starting technique became more refined and smoother.

Some people in the international community have commented that the Chinese genius teenager Su's sprinting technique is as rigorous and meticulous as a scholar. He never lets go of any tiny shortcomings of his own, and you can always see that he is constantly trying to change and improve.

This is a 'big devil' who is more terrifying than a genius. He has infinite patience and perseverance in his exploration of sprinting.

And now, Su Yu, who has excellent skills and good strength, appeared in the final of the Olympic 100-meter sprint competition.

The French TV commentator looked at Su Yu on the field at this moment and said in amazement: "Dear viewers, what we are going to see next may be a brand new miracle!"

In the acceleration phase of the race, Su Yu did not take a complete lead, but he remained firmly in the first echelon.

As the schedule on the field continues to advance, whether it is Federico Segli from Italy, Elijah Rogers from the American team, or Su Yu’s old friend and old rival Romario Ferguson...

Every contestant present was trying to completely surpass or leave Su Yu behind, but no one succeeded.

When the race entered the 60-meter stage, many athletes on the field could no longer maintain their maximum speed and began to slow down slightly. It was also at this moment that facing Su Yu, who had not been left behind by anyone...the outcome of the men's 100-meter sprint at the Paris Olympics seemed to have been foreseen in advance.

When the race entered the last 30 meters, Su Yu had gradually entered his maximum speed stage.

Su Yu, who was originally in third place temporarily, also began to show his terrifying aggressiveness as he entered his maximum speed stage!

In the last 20 meters, with a gap of only ten seconds, he had already come to the second position. At this moment, there was only one opponent left in front of him!

Commentators and audiences all over the world seemed to have gone crazy at this moment!

"Oh!! Sue! The last 20 meters!!"

"Crazy last 30 meters of teleportation!"

"This terrible devil always dominates the second half of a sprint race! In the final stage, he is the unrivaled king on the field!"

Whether it is Federico, Elijah, or any other opponent!

Su! ! !

In the audience seats, the screams of the audience had already reached a level that could not be louder.

Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming in the commentary room of the domestic sports channel were also screaming loudly -

"Su Yu!!! The last 20 meters!!"

"Go! Surpass!"

When Su Yu successfully surpassed his last opponent Federico in the last 10 meters, such screams directly pierced the sky -

"Su Yu!!! The last ten meters!!! Finally...cross the finish line!!!"

“Ahhhhhh!! Cross the finish line!!!”

When Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming really saw the moment on the surveillance screen in front of them that Su Yu successfully surpassed everyone and finally crossed the finish line, even the rationality of these two veteran commentators seemed to collapse at this moment.

“Surpassed…crossed the finish line!!!”

"Won?! We won?! Ahhh, we won!!! It was Su Yu who won, it was the Chinese team that won?!"

At this moment, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming even forgot that they were commentating on the final of the men's 100m sprint at the Olympics. They watched Su Yu finally cross the finish line on the field and screamed in shock. They could only vent the difficulty and madness of this moment through cheering and screaming.

Not just them.

The audience on the public screen of Jigu Video Live Room also fell into madness and self-doubt at this moment——

[Ahhhhhhhhh?] ! 】

[Won?] ! Did I really win...? Ahhhh! 】

[Emperor Yu! Emperor of Islet! ! ! 】

The number of comments on the public screen barrage in the entire live broadcast room seemed to have exploded to an all-time high, with countless screams and various exclamation marks bouncing wildly on the public screen barrage.

It seems that everyone is at a loss, and everyone seems to be waiting for the final result.

But you can tell from the live broadcast that at this moment in Paris, France, the audience has already started to make a lot of noise.

Compared with the domestic audience who were still in doubt and astonishment, the audience in Paris had already started screaming.

"Soo!!!"

The frenzied scene was ignited even more crazily at this moment. No one knew who started it, but people gradually began to shout Su Yu's last name in a rhythmic voice.

“Su, Su, Su!!!”

In every square of the audience, there were fanatical track and field fans. They were excited for witnessing this legendary moment in front of them, and they were also excited for the oriental genius who had ascended to the 100-meter throne.

The Chinese players at the scene had already started screaming wildly when Su Yu made his final sprint, and when Su Yu actually crossed the finish line, all the staff from the Chinese team could no longer maintain any rationality or composure!

***

Success!

On the blue and purple track at the scene, when he finally successfully crossed the finish line, even someone as calm as Su Yu couldn't help but burst into a cry from the bottom of his heart.

This is the final victory brought about by thousands of days and nights of continuous training. This is the success condensed from every footprint and sweat on the training ground.

Starting from being ignorant, to shouldering the responsibility called "Chinese Sprint", from taking three steps and breathing heavily at the beginning, to gradually reaching the top of the world.

For a moment, looking back, Su Yu even appeared confused and dazed. It was also at this moment that a pair of strong arms embraced him.

The warmth behind him awakened him from his confusion and trance. The national flag of the Chinese team was draped over him, and behind him, Pei Dingshan hugged Su Yu in his arms across the flag.

"Congratulations."

He expressed his most sincere congratulations in Su Yu's ear in the lightest and gentlest tone.

From an angle that Su Yu could not see, his eyes also deeply reflected an infatuation that could not be concealed - so much so that when Su Yu turned around and looked at him, he had no time to hide the overly explicit love in his eyes.

But Su Yu turned around and did not express any doubts about what he saw. Instead, he looked into his eyes seriously and said word by word: "I won."

Looking at Su Yu who seemed to want a response and praise, no words could describe the throbbing in Pei Dingshan's heart at this moment.

Finally, he probably didn't want to hide his heart any more, so he hugged Su Yu tightly into his arms again and smiled softly in his ear: "Yes, you won, my champion..."

After a pause, he hugged the young man in his arms with his strong arms, as if he was afraid that he would run away, and then whispered in his ear: "I love you."

When he said these three words, even his normally strong rationality disappeared at this moment. He was afraid that Su Yu in front of him would break free from him and leave.

But even after more than ten seconds, the young man in his arms showed no signs of struggling.

He just said "hmm" softly at the end.

There were no more words, but it was enough to calm Pei Dingshan's wildly beating heart.

It was also at this moment that the picture on the large electronic screen at the scene suddenly switched to Su Yu who was tightly hugged by Pei Dingshan. The picture at this moment made the audience in the audience seats scream enthusiastically again.

Before the people in the Chinese players' area could react, the electronic screen at the scene changed again, showing the final men's 100-meter sprint results of the Paris Olympics:

There were no unexpected reversals in the outcome of everything!

In the first place it is clearly displayed - China team, Su Yu!

First place: Su Yu (China), 9.76 seconds (wind speed 1.0m/s), WL (world best result this year)/AR (continental record);

At this moment, even more crazy screams resounded throughout the world - this talented athlete from China successfully broke the 9.80-second barrier, raising the 100-meter sprint record originally held by the Chinese yellow race from 9.83 to 9.76!

When Su Yu celebrated around the stadium wearing the glory of 9.76 seconds and the bright red five-star red flag, enthusiastic screams rang out again.

At this moment, the whole world was screaming for him.

At this moment, the whole world is screaming for China!

***

Finally, when the award ceremony for the men's 100-meter sprint at the Paris Olympics began, all the Chinese spectators and staff at the scene stood up early.

At the award ceremony, the three national flags of the countries where the champion, runner-up and third place winners belonged were escorted by the flag-raisers to the flagpole at the award ceremony. When the five-star red flag was hung on the flagpole in the center, countless Chinese audiences present had tears in their eyes.

The president of the IAAF personally presented medals to the three athletes who won the first, second and third place.

After he presented the bronze and silver medals to the third and second place winners, on the high platform in the middle, the most dazzling Chinese talent also stood on the highest podium that belonged to him at his invitation.

"congratulations."

He still remembered that at the Tokyo Olympics four years ago, he once told the young man that he believed there would be more opportunities to meet on the podium in the future.

What he didn't expect was that four years later, this young man would be able to stand on the podium in front of him, which was the pinnacle of the 100-meter race.

When he hung the gold medal on Su Yu's chest, he couldn't help but exclaim: "Dear Su, you are so suitable for this position, you are a natural champion!"

But after hearing his sigh, the young man in front of him shook his head seriously.

Su Yu looked at the IAAF president in front of him and said seriously: "I am not a born champion - but I will be a champion in the end."

It's like the Chinese sprint.

We may not have such strong conditions and advantages innately, but every player on the Chinese team will not choose to give up.

Not only him, but also his teammates and millions of future track and field athletes in China.

We are not necessarily born champions.

But we will be the champions!

As the five-star red flag slowly rose to the accompaniment of the Chinese national anthem, Su Yu gently held the gold medal in front of his chest, looked carefully at the red flag flying in the wind, and sang the national anthem earnestly.

As expected - such a bright red flag should be flown at the highest point to be the most beautiful.
