This result, which no one expected, was presented to people so realistically and naturally.
After a brief moment of distraction, there was a boiling excitement!
What could be more exciting than the current result?
Not only did Cui Luoheng cross the finish line in first place in the final sprint, but after him, Komatsu Koichi and Lu Mengfan also crossed the finish line in second and third place respectively!
Everything happened just as Su Bai predicted in the morning - Cui Luoheng and Lu Mengfan both won medals in tonight's final, but the difference was that before this, no one had thought that the final result would be one gold and one bronze.
Jiang Wentao stood in the audience, holding the back of the seat in front of him tightly with both hands. He had not yet recovered from the shock just now. After a while, he turned his head to look at his old brother Pei Jinan beside him: "Old Pei, this is one gold and one bronze?!"
Pei Jinan was also stunned. He took a deep breath and nodded: "Yes! One gold and one bronze, Cui Luoheng passed the line in first place, and Lu Mengfan is in third place..."
No matter how hard they thought, they never imagined that the final outcome of the 110-meter hurdles would be like this.
All the possible medal-winning doubles they had thought of had Lu Mengfan's ranking slightly higher than Cui Luoheng. They did not expect that in this final, it would be Cui Luoheng who beat everyone and won the gold medal.
Jiang Wentao's eyes suddenly became wet, and he murmured, "12 years... 12 years, the Asian Games gold medal in the hurdles event is back again."
The last time the Chinese team won the 110-meter hurdles gold medal at the Asian Games was when the previous hurdles king had not yet retired. After that, the domestic 110-meter hurdles project has been lacking talent and has been dormant for many years. Although it can barely maintain the top level in Asia with the training experience of that year, the dominance it once had in Asia is no longer there.
During the two Asian Games, the Chinese track and field team only won one silver and one bronze, which is also a pain in the hearts of many track and field enthusiasts.
In the live broadcast room of the sports channel, Shao Minyi and Li Sen were also excitedly describing this past event.
"After 12 years, the 110-meter hurdles Asian Games gold medal finally returned to China! I also hope that our 110-meter hurdlers, Cui Luoheng and Lu Mengfan, can continue to work hard and continue to pass on such achievements and glory!"
"Let us once again congratulate Cui Luoheng and Lu Mengfan, the two 110m hurdles medalists!"
In the live broadcast room of the channel, accompanied by the commentary of Shao Minyi and Li Sen and the wonderful scenes of the game being replayed, the audience on the barrage had already gone crazy.
Do they want Cui Luoheng and Lu Mengfan to win the gold medal?
They want it so much!
It's just that they haven't put the word "want" into words yet.
It seems that these track and field enthusiasts are relatively shy, or rational. In most cases, they will judge the strength of the athletes and then put their expectations in a seemingly reasonable range, but this does not mean that they do not look forward to exceeding their limits.
Sports competition is originally a world that pursues the strong and pursues the limits.
As ordinary enthusiasts, they cannot see the ultimate world with their own eyes, but they always yearn in their hearts, hoping that the strong man they are chasing can see the scenery at the top for them, and they hope even more that this strong man who is rushing to the top can carry the glory of the same country.
At this moment, Cui Luoheng's Asian Games championship broke their original cautiousness and no longer needed to find excuses for any failure.
They have complete freedom - they can party as much as they want!
[Ahhhhh, md, Xiao Cui is awesome!] Winning the gold medal in the first Asian Games is amazing! 】
[I don’t know what to say, anyway, Xiao Cui did a great job! ! ! Well done Xiaolu! ! ! 】
There were many seemingly meaningless screams on the public screen. Obviously, this was because these track and field enthusiasts were too excited and didn't know what else to do besides screaming at this moment.
At the Jakarta Stadium, Cui Luoheng's heart was still pounding until he crossed the finish line. After absorbing the pressure, he closed his eyes and slightly adjusted his disordered breathing due to the full-scale run just now. Then he opened his eyes, and the excitement of crossing the finish line as the first place and winning the championship only came to his mind slightly slowly.
Winner…!
He won the championship!
He won the 110m hurdles championship in the Jakarta Asian Games!
When this realization came to his mind, Cui Luoheng clenched his fists, closed his eyes, raised his head, and waved his fists in a very restrained manner.
"Xiao Cui!!! Xiao Cui!!!"
At the sidelines, some Chinese team staff were waving excitedly at Cui Luoheng. They had brought the national flag to the center of the field and handed it to Cui Luoheng and Lu Mengfan respectively. Lu Mengfan took the national flag and draped it over Cui Luoheng, and then draped another national flag over himself.
"Let's go, Ah Heng." Lu Mengfan looked at Cui Luoheng with some emotion, then patted him on the shoulder, indicating that they could go to the sidelines and celebrate together.
The Chinese audience at the scene and some Chinese audiences who came from China to watch the game were also extremely excited. Everyone waved the flags in their hands, watched Cui Luoheng and Lu Mengfan running to the sidelines with the national flags on their backs, and then cheered loudly and hoarsely.
"Xiao Cui did a great job!!!"
“Xiaolu also did a great job!!!”
At the moment of extreme excitement, everyone's vocabulary is barren. They can only shout happily, and then use their voices, waving bodies and flags to let everyone feel their excitement and excitement.
The audience at the scene, even those who were not Chinese, applauded and celebrated for Cui Luoheng.
In this arena, the strong deserve the highest support!
The audience seats in the Chinese players' area were very close to the stadium. When Cui Luoheng and Lu Mengfan ran around the field to this position, Jiang Wentao and other members of the Chinese team were waving their arms vigorously and sending their blessings to Cui Luoheng.
Of course Su Bai was among them. He smiled and clapped, smiling and saluted for the achievements of Cui Luoheng and Lu Mengfan.
When they arrived at the Chinese team's viewing area, Cui Luoheng and Lu Mengfan both stopped and bowed deeply towards the audience seats.
Next to the stadium, Man Jiang, a reporter from the sports channel, was naturally very excited at this time. He tried hard to restrain himself, and then pointed the camera lens steadily at Cui Luoheng and Lu Mengfan, wishing to record every second of their real-time footage.
One gold and one bronze!
Man Jiang really didn't expect that the follow-up of his interview with Su Bai in the morning would have such an exciting ending. He fully believed that today's pre-race interview and post-race results of the 110-meter hurdles would be a classic chapter in his career as a sports reporter.
That’s right!
Results, what are your results?
As soon as this thought flashed through Man Jiang's mind, the final results of the athletes in this event were announced on the on-site broadcast and the big screen.
"Jakarta Asian Games 110m hurdles final, first place: Cui Luoheng (China) 13.37 (wind speed -0.2m/s) personal best, second place: Komatsu Koichi (Japan) 13.44 (-0.2m/s), third place: Lu Mengfan (China) 13.48 (-0.2m/s)..."
!
The moment he saw this result, Man Jiang was shocked - another PB! Not only did he break the 13.40 second barrier, but this was achieved in a headwind!
If there is a tailwind, I'm afraid the time will be under 13.35 seconds, right?
Before this, Lu Mengfan had always been known as the top 110-meter hurdles runner in the country and the new hope for the hurdles king. However, after this race, it was obvious that the identity of the top 110-meter hurdles runner in the country was about to change hands.
On the Track and Field Kingdom forum, as soon as the results came out, many people posted many posts with similar content in an emotional manner.
[Cui Luoheng broke the 13.40 second barrier in the 110m hurdles against the wind! ! ! 】
[At the Jakarta Asian Games, Cui Luoheng broke his PB again in the 110m hurdles, 13.37 seconds against the wind, and breaking 13.30 seconds is just around the corner! ! 】
[Cui Luoheng vs. Lu Mengfan? New hope is rising in the 110m hurdles! ! 】
Every track and field fan who follows the 110-meter hurdles event can no longer control his emotions at this moment. This event, which once lacked talent, now has not only Lu Mengfan, but also the strong rise of Cui Luoheng. Cui Luoheng's result is not only a new personal PB result, but also the best result in the Chinese 110-meter hurdles event in recent years.
There is no doubt that this was a night worth celebrating for track and field fans, especially when Cui Luoheng and Lu Mengfan stood on the 110-meter hurdles podium together with the national flag draped over them. Many die-hard fans of the 110-meter hurdles who had experienced the peak of the event and survived the decade-long talent gap had tears in their eyes.
Finally, they finally saw the Chinese flag slowly rising as the national anthem sang at the Asian Games arena.
The subsequent events that night could no longer attract more attention in the country than the 110-meter hurdles final. After the award ceremony, Man Jiang quickly sorted out the photos and manuscripts in his hands and sent them back to China.
The official Weibo accounts of the National Track and Field Team and the Athletics Administration Center quickly released the official news after confirming that Cui Luoheng and Lu Mengfan won one gold and one bronze.
National Track and Field Team: [#JakartaAsianGamesAthleticsTime# In the Jakarta Asian Games 110m hurdles final held at 22:30 B city time tonight, Chinese athlete @崔洛恒 won the Jakarta Asian Games 110m hurdles gold medal with a time of 13.39 seconds. This is the first time in 12 years that a Chinese athlete has won the 110m hurdles gold medal in the Asian Games! At the same time, our athlete @路孟凡 also won the bronze medal with a score of 13.48 seconds! This is also the first time that two athletes from our country have won medals in the 110-meter hurdles at the Asian Games! 】
Although this time's news did not have the rich people directly spending money to buy hot searches like "The Monkey King runs fast", the previous track and field related hot searches have not yet cooled down, and the 110-meter hurdles event has a much stronger popular base in China than the 400-meter run. With the blessing of this sentimental filter similar to "the highlight moment after 12 years", the related topics of the 110-meter hurdles event have slowly climbed to the end of the hot search list.
The carnival of this day completely continued the previous popularity, and the name Cui Luoheng began to be remembered by passers-by for the first time. At the same time, Su Bai was also called "prophet" by many onlookers, and some people once again dug up his airport interview before the departure of the track and field team.
[(Dog head) The prophet Su has already exceeded his predictions regarding Qiu Wen, Zhang Ziyi, Cui Luoheng, and Lu Mengfan. In this case, will the last prediction of the prophet come true? ! 】
This is really a good question. Not only track and field enthusiasts, but also passers-by who have noticed Su Bai because of hot searches and other related events in recent days are also very curious about this.
Su Bai’s prediction was correct once and twice. Can he maintain the same accuracy for the third time?
If everything is really correct...
Isn't this something that must be prayed to heaven?
Based on the public's enthusiasm for discussion, some people even started the topic #带预测家苏白# on Weibo, and the related views and discussion participation were not low.
In the Asian Games Village, after all the competitions were over and everyone returned to the Asian Games Village full of excitement, Pei Jinan and Jiang Wentao also privately asked Su Bai what he thought of the 4*400m race.
Su Bai was very direct, and gave the same answer as in the previous interview: "For this 4*400 relay race, the goal I set for the relay team is to win a medal."
Jiang Wentao was stunned when he heard this, then hesitantly asked: "Then... can we definitely win?"
Hearing this question, Su Bai immediately laughed: "Director Jiang, in sports competitions, how can there be certain things?"
"This..." Jiang Wentao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Well, you are right. There is no such thing as certainty in sports competitions. I was thinking wrongly."
The truth is, Su Bai's previous series of predictions have basically exceeded the targets. Such accuracy of predictions makes him unable to help but have some advanced expectations for the 4*400 game.
After thinking for a while, Jiang Wentao couldn't help but ask, "Xiaobai, tell me the truth. How confident are you that the relay team can achieve this goal?"
Su Bai paused, thought about it, and replied, "About 60%."
Jiang Wentao and Pei Jinan looked at each other - 60% confidence, this is not low!
The two of them seemed to have taken a reassurance pill from Su Bai's words, and then said goodbye to Su Bai respectively.
After sending the two away, Su Bai sat back at the table in his room, turned on his computer and looked at Li Junhao's relevant data again. At the same time, he opened Li Junhao's dynamic data analysis panel, looked at Li Junhao's constantly fluctuating mental state values, and began to wait quietly for something.
What he just said to Jiang Wentao and Pei Jinan was indeed the truth. In the 4*400m relay, he was only about 60% sure of winning the championship. What he didn't say was that among the 40% uncertainty factors, 25% came from Li Junhao.
Li Junhao has indeed performed well in the training over this period of time. Even if he is training hard according to his training plan because he is angry with him, as long as he can improve his performance by following this training method, other aspects don't matter.
In the previous team test match, the results of Li Junhao's full training and his original talent were also very clearly demonstrated after this period of training.
However, although Su Bai tried his best to stimulate Li Junhao and completely broke down the players' fear and resistance to foreign players at the very beginning, and indeed raised the players' psychological threshold for the competition, it was still not enough for Li Junhao.
In other words, if the 4*400m race could be held before all the events coached by Su Bai that have now ended, then these stimulations would be enough for Li Junhao.
However, the event was arranged in this way, and the 4*400m event was scheduled in the final stage, which directly led to all the members of the 4*400m relay team collectively watching the realization of Su Bai's previous prediction.
For several others, such as Zhang Ziyi, Guo Dun and Lin Chuan, this is just a small matter. The fact that Su Bai's predictions can be realized one by one proves Su Bai's coaching ability and vision, and also shows that the goals he set are probably reasonable and achievable.
But this information is not entirely true for Li Junhao.
He was originally a player with a relatively fragile mental state. It was for this reason that his performance fluctuated and led to his subsequent setback.
During this period of time, he relied on his initial dissatisfaction with Su Bai to grit his teeth and persist in training. In the end, he achieved gratifying results. After he weakened some of his misunderstanding and dissatisfaction with Su Bai in his heart, another emotion slowly crept into his heart.
——During the test match, he could run a time of 46.33 seconds. He had even broken the 46.30 second barrier in his normal training and could keep his results stable within this range.
However, training matches are training matches, and Li Junhao is still not sure whether he can achieve the same result in a formal competition.
As the Asian Games events continued, Qiu Wen and Zhang Ziyi both advanced into the top half of the 400m final. Another disciple of Su Bai, Cui Luoheng, even won the 110m hurdles championship today.
All these facts tell Li Junhao that Su Bai is indeed an impeccable and awesome coach. At the same time, he has excellent vision and first-rate judgment.
So, for such a coach with first-class judgment, the goal he set for their 4*400m relay team is to win a medal in the Asian Games?
Not only that, this is also the first time that Li Junhao has taken on such an important role as the fourth runner in the 4*400m relay team. As the team's first runner, Zhang Ziyi, he will be responsible for allowing the team to gain a certain advantage in the first run. The task of the second and third runners is to maintain this advantage, or in other words, try not to let their team fall too far behind.
When the baton is passed to him, the fourth runner, he shoulders the hopes of everyone. If he is ahead, he must maintain the lead. If he is behind, he must do everything possible to narrow the gap with his opponent, or even find a way to overtake him.
This is a position that requires both strength and mental strength, but Li Junhao... does not have a strong enough heart.
What if I don’t perform well in the game?
What if you make a mistake in passing the baton during a game?
What if the players in front of them maintain their advantage during the game, but when it comes to the last runner, they are weaker than the fourth runner of the other team, which ultimately leads to a loss of the game?
These problems, one after another, became a heavy mountain in Li Junhao's heart as the track and field team achieved one good result after another.
During these days, Li Junhao appeared to be no different from before, but deep down he was under psychological pressure that could overwhelm him at any time.
At this point, there was less than a day left until the 4*400m preliminaries.
In the evening, after everyone returned to the Asian Games Village, Li Junhao took the opportunity when his roommate Lin Chuan went to wash up and told him that he was going out for a walk to relax. Without even noticing it, he walked aimlessly to the floor where the coach was - to be precise, to the door of the dormitory where Su Bai was.
After realizing where he was, Li Junhao was stunned for a moment, then he frowned and was about to leave. At this moment, the door of Su Bai's dormitory opened with a click.
Li Junhao stared at Su Bai as he opened the door. Then he saw him standing at the door like a fool in the middle of the night. His handsome face immediately turned red.
Su Bai raised his eyebrows when he saw him like this and smiled: "Walking in front of my door in the middle of the night?"
…
…………
Li Junhao was angry and ashamed, and felt like his face was smoking. After hearing Su Bai say the four words "take a walk outside the door", he felt even more furious.
Why was he walking here so late at night?
As the head coach of the 400-meter event, shouldn't you be concerned about the mental state of your teammates when you see them appear at your door late at night? And he will participate in the competition tomorrow, and it will be the last leg of the 4*400m event! ! !
How did he come up with the four words 'strolling outside the door'? !
Li Junhao laughed in anger, gnashing his teeth and snorting, "Yeah, the moon is pretty tonight, I'm going out for a walk!"
After saying that, Li Junhao saw Su Bai's gaze turned, and he also turned his head to look at the sky outside - tonight... there was no moon, and even the sky was dark, and it looked like there was nothing worth watching.
…
…………
………………
Li Junhao felt that he was getting even angrier, even God was against him!
Moreover, coach Su Bai didn't comfort him or care about him like Wang Ting did. Instead, he just looked at him with a smile, as if he was making fun of him!
Damn it, how could he be so crazy that he took a walk in the middle of the night and ended up at Su Bai's door!
Does he still expect this hateful guy to comfort him and solve the stress in his heart? !
It's impossible!
This Su Bai will only laugh at him even more!
Su Bai looked at Li Junhao's changing expression, then smiled and glanced at him: "Now that you've had enough of your walk, go back and rest early. Tomorrow is the day for the men's 4*400m preliminaries. You are the last runner of our team. Whether we can achieve our goal this time depends largely on you."
Su Bai smiled and said, "I was a little worried about your mental state, but seeing that you are still in the mood to go out for a walk in the middle of the night, I guess you will be fine during the competition."
?
Feeling provoked!
Li Junhao was furious and glared at Su Bai fiercely: "Whoever has a problem, I won't have a problem either!"
Su Bai immediately nodded with satisfaction, and smiled at him encouragingly: "Come on, the 4*400m relay team depends on you."
After hearing what Su Bai said, Li Junhao turned around and went back to his dormitory with great anger. Su Bai glanced at the data panel and saw that Li Junhao's mental state had suddenly stabilized. He closed the door and rested with satisfaction.
In the athletes' dormitory, Li Junhao tossed and turned in anger before going to sleep - he always felt like he was being tricked!
