?
10.03 seconds?
Shao Minyi, Li Sen, and the audience in the live broadcast room who were originally just shouting for encouragement were all stunned for a moment.
What was Fang Yu's personal PB in the 2018 outdoor season?
It seems to be, 10.04 seconds during the Asian Games?
Theoretically, the winter training period is not the time when athletes are in the best competitive condition, and no coach will allow athletes to adjust their competitive condition to the peak during the winter training period.
But it is different during the Asian Games cycle. As one of the most important events of 2018, Pei Jinan and the coaching staff will definitely adjust Fang Yu's condition to the best during that stage.
Shao Minyi and Li Sen looked at each other and took a breath - does this mean that Fang Yu was in average condition today, but he ran a season sb that he had not achieved even in his best condition before?
"Congratulations to Fang Yu!" Shao Minyi was shocked for a moment, then began to praise: "In the preliminaries just now, Fang Yu was in excellent condition and ran his personal best from 2017 to 2018! It seems that during the two months of winter training, Fang Yu has gradually regained his condition. With such results in the preliminaries alone, I believe Fang Yu will have a great chance to bring us even bigger surprises in the finals tomorrow night!"
In the live broadcast room, the barrage was also filled with various joy and excitement.
【Very good! Brother Yu’s condition has completely recovered! If he could run 10.03 in the preliminaries, can he expect to run under 10 again in the final 100m? 】
[Although, I am also looking forward to Brother Yu’s second sub-10m 100m performance! ! ! 】
[Friends, calm down. Although Brother Yu is in good shape today, don't forget that this is just a competition during winter training. It is impossible for Brother Yu to really try his best in this kind of competition, right? Don't forget that it is winter training now. Although there must be competitions to maintain competitive form, we still have to pay attention to the training rhythm. It is possible to compete seriously in this competition, but it is not very scientific to break the record of 10 meters in this competition, right? 】
Because Fang Yu's 100m preliminary result was far ahead of other players, the live broadcast room was very lively. No one cared much about the possibility of Fang Yu breaking the 100m record in the competition.
Although this Asian six-nation track and field joint competition has been held in a grand manner with official support, everyone knows that the atmosphere of friendship and exchange in this competition is definitely much stronger than that of confrontation. Therefore, more people are just looking at this competition with the intention of seeing the results of the athletes' training in winter training. Now, because of Fang Yu's unexpectedly good result, the expectations of all the spectators for this joint competition have increased.
On the field, Fang Yu who crossed the finish line knew that he was in good shape today, and he did not hold back much, but he did not expect that he would be able to run a result of 10.03 seconds in the preliminaries!
This result was completely beyond his expectations. He stroked his hair with one hand, staring at the result data displayed on the big screen in a daze - 10.03 seconds, wind speed +0.9m/s, it was indeed correct!
After confirming the result, Fang Yu clenched his right fist and waved it excitedly, then with a relaxed smile on his face he greeted his opponents from five other Asian countries.
In the audience, Pei Jinan, who also came to watch the game with the team, also had a smile in his eyes - during this period of time, he and his coaching staff had been adjusting Fang Yu's training according to the training plan provided by Su Bai. At first, they were a little uneasy, but as Fang Yu's training continued to progress, this uneasy mood was gradually replaced by surprise.
More than two months of training have passed, and now it is time to show the new training results to everyone!
Not only in Fang Yu's men's 100m preliminaries, but also in a series of preliminaries throughout the day, athletes in many events achieved outstanding results.
In the preliminaries of the 110-meter hurdles, Cui Luoheng easily ran into 13.50 seconds, while Lu Mengfan and Zhao Yankai also performed well. In the preliminaries, Lu Mengfan even surpassed Cui Luoheng with a score of 13.48 seconds and won the first place in the overall ranking of the preliminaries. Zhao Yankai, who had been recovering from injury for more than a month since the National Championships and had only resumed training for one month, also ran a score of 13.56 seconds and looked in very good shape.
And if, in the 100m and 110m hurdles events, they only achieved the best results in their personal history in the preliminaries, then when it was the turn of the women's and men's teams for the 400m event, all the track and field fans and spectators could only stay there, not knowing what to say.
The 400-meter event naturally started with the women's team. The five female team players headed by Chen Yada were divided into two groups of preliminaries.
Although this was just a friendly match, Chen Yada and the others did not take it lightly at all. Even though it was just the preliminaries, they had already made plans for the allocation of physical energy for the preliminaries and finals in their minds, and then used their physical energy more reasonably in the preliminaries.
With this mentality, Chen Yada and others on the track looked much more imposing than other players around them who were simply in the mentality of training and competing.
In the commentary booth, Shao Minyi and Li Sen also talked about the special competition between the men's and women's teams in the previous 400-meter event.
"In the past two months, it is said that under the leadership of coach Su Bai, the competition between the men's and women's teams has reached a fever pitch. Players from both sides have been competing against each other and have made great progress in their performance."
"Yes." Li Sen said with a smile: "I wonder if we will have the opportunity to see the excellent performance of the men's and women's teams in the 400m event after their improvement in today's competition?"
"Let's wait and see!"
In today's competition, Shao Minyi and Li Sen were both in a relatively relaxed and casual state. This time, the game was mainly based on the atmosphere. As long as the atmosphere could be heated up, the real pursuit of competition results was not that important. After all, it was just a winter training competition!
…
…………
………………
Well, that's what they originally thought.
Until the end of the first group preliminaries of the women's 400-meter race, Lin Huan won the first place in the first group of preliminaries with a time of 52.43 seconds, and Lin Yao, who came in second, ran a good time of 52.87 seconds.
In this six-nation joint competition, the two women's 400m runners broke their previous personal bests in the first group of the preliminaries, and on average they pushed their personal bests forward by 0.5 seconds.
When this result came out, Shao Minyi and Li Sen were both speechless. This was another PB-breaking improvement... Was this the special style of the players led by Su Bai?
In the live broadcast room, although the spectators did not know the previous results of Lin Huan and Lin Yao, track and field fans paid special attention to the previous performances of the women's team because of the special competition between the men's and women's teams in the 400-meter race recently.
Now looking at the results on the big screen, and then looking at the previous best results of Lin Huan and Lin Yao, track and field fans are also confused - this... has the women's team made such a great improvement?
Of course, after the confusion comes the surprise - this means that Su Bai's previous legendary myth is still continuing. Look, after Su Bai fully accepted the 400-meter event, the results of both the men's and women's teams have improved by leaps and bounds!
Then, while the spectators were pleasantly surprised, they were constantly hit by a series of surprises in the second group of preliminaries for the women's team and the three groups of preliminaries for the men's team.
Shao Minyi and Li Sen were originally broadcasting the live broadcast with a relaxed attitude, but when Chen Yada refreshed her personal PB to 52.06, both of their heartbeats skipped a beat.
Lin Huan and Lin Yao in the first group of the preliminaries also improved their individual PBs a lot, but for the time being they are still in the range of 52 seconds and above.
But Chen Yada's time was completely different - 52.06 seconds, not far from breaking the 52-second mark. And they all knew that in the qualifying standard results for the 19th World Athletics Championships announced earlier, the qualifying value for the women's 400-meter run was 51.80 seconds.
When the qualifying standard results were announced, Chen Yada's personal PB was still more than 1 second away from the qualifying value. It was like a dream to want to reach the qualifying score and qualify for the World Championships.
But just over two months later, a data that really seemed like a dream appeared in front of everyone - 52.06 seconds, only 0.26 seconds away from the standard line of 51.80 seconds!
In just over two months, Su Bai seemed to have a pair of golden hands. He easily brushed away the dust on some of the dazzling gems, making them quickly bloom with miraculous brilliance!
It's not just Chen Yada.
In the three preliminaries of the men's 400m, the athletes of the 400m men's team were not at all perfunctory as they had been in previous domestic competitions. They completely treated this competition as the most important event and they never took it lightly even though it was a preliminaries.
They even forced athletes from other countries who had originally not taken the preliminaries seriously and had only planned to run at a relaxed pace to take a serious attitude.
But even so, those players...including naturalized players, were not able to really gain any benefits from these ferocious guys like Zhang Ziyi, Qiu Wen, and Li Junhao.
In the live broadcast room of the sports channel, track and field fans were already dumbfounded by the comments on the public screen. They only knew that the 400-meter event would definitely make great progress in Su Bai's hands, but they didn't know the extent of the improvement would blind them so much.
In the three preliminaries that just ended, Zhang Ziyi's personal PB was refreshed again, reaching 45.36 seconds, which is only 0.06 seconds away from the World Championships standard of 45.30 seconds, which can be said to be one step away.
Qiu Wen's personal PB went from 45.85 seconds to under 45.50 seconds, and finally reached 45.47 seconds, once again achieving a significant improvement in performance.
But this is far from all - Li Junhao, whose results were always outside 47 seconds last year, performed like a chicken with its blood pumped up in today's preliminaries, crushing the Japanese player Aso Yota, who was in the same preliminaries with him, to the point that he began to doubt his life. Then he finished second in the preliminaries in the group with a result of 45.86 seconds.
As for the other men's 400m athletes, such as Guo Dun, Lin Chuan, Zhou Xu, Zhang Chang, Hu Li, Zhang Wei, etc., even if their progress is not much, their personal results in the preliminaries have shown substantial improvement.
It can be said that no matter whether it is the 400-meter men's team or the women's team, after the first day of preliminaries, their personal PBs have quickly jumped forward. In today's competition, in the 400-meter team, if anyone's PB has not been refreshed, they would be embarrassed to say hello to others!
In the live broadcast room, the audience on the barrage were still a little confused at this moment.
[…Friends, I feel like I’m dreaming. I dreamed that I was watching a winter training competition called the Six Nations Joint Competition, and then I saw that the average score per person in the 400-meter event broke the pb? 】
【? What a coincidence, my friend, I dreamed about this too. 】
【I also……】
【? Why do it seem like there are so many people dreaming together today? 】
It's not that track and field fans are deliberately being stupid, it's just that today's preliminaries were too shocking. It's not just that the results of one or two talented athletes have made great strides forward, but that the entire 400-meter team is making great strides forward!
Regardless of whether they are men's or women's teams, they only know that today's results of the men's and women's teams would have been enough to easily win medals in competitions like the Asian Games and Asian Championships in previous years!
But if we go back three to five months, all domestic track and field fans know very well that the domestic 400-meter events, both men and women, are still a long way from being the best in Asia.
Today's competition has stunned both track and field fans and spectators.
The spectators were originally unclear about the situation, but the on-site commentators Shao Minyi and Li Sen, as well as the barrage in the live broadcast room, kept repeating one sentence from time to time - player XXX has refreshed his personal pb again!
After hearing this sentence many times, the spectators all thought that this personal PB was something that an athlete could break once in every game. So much so that after the preliminaries of the 400-meter event ended and the 800-meter race began, Shao Minyi and the others did not continue to talk about refreshing their personal PBs. Some spectators even raised a soul-searching question - what exactly is that personal PB? Why don't these players refresh?
[…emmmm, why don’t these players refresh? When I saw this sentence, I panicked. 】
Someone typed this line of words with slightly trembling hands on the public screen in the live broadcast room, and in the live broadcast room, there were many people who were as panicked as this track and field fan.
Many track and field fans were trembling slightly, and then typed the three words "I'm panicking" on the public screen.
Personal pb, that’s personal pb!
For an athlete, this usually takes several months, or even one or two years to refresh. Who would have thought that in today's 400m preliminaries, the players of these 400m teams would refresh their personal PBs as easily as refreshing cabbages?
Even these serious track and field fans had a feeling when watching the preliminaries of the 400-meter event - this is not an individual's PB, but something that is packaged and sold cheaply.
It was not until the 400-meter preliminaries were over that Shao Minyi and Li Sen looked at each other in confusion: Is today's event really just a joint competition among six nations?
Not only Shao Minyi and Li Sen had this question, but also the players from the other five countries who had a head-on confrontation with the Chinese team today all had this doubt.
[The player who just won is from the Chinese team?] 】
Why do these Chinese players give people a completely different feeling than in the past? 】
[I can’t believe it. Aren’t the Chinese team’s 400m runners very weak and mediocre? The level of the finals of Japan's high school track and field meets can reach the level of the top ten Chinese athletes. Why is it that a top Japanese athlete like me is crushed by Chinese athletes? ? ? 】
If all the contestants' questions were put together, it would probably be a very classic black question mark emoticon: why? Why?
At the Athletics Management Center, although Wang Zhengsheng, Jiang Wentao and others did not go to the scene to watch the game, they stayed at the Athletics Management Center and still maintained a close attention to this six-nation competition.
After watching the full-day competition data and the replays of some key events, Wang Zhengsheng, Jiang Wentao and others all had expressions of amazement on their faces - it was simply too amazing.
"Su Bai..." Jiang Wentao sighed, "He said before that his goal is to qualify for the men's 400-meter race at the World Championships."
"During that meeting, many national team coaches were present. I really thought he was young and naive, and didn't know how difficult it was to get a full team qualification for the 400m event..."
"Really, who would have thought?"
Just looking at today's game, after just over two months of training, in the preliminaries of the competition during the winter training, Zhang Ziyi scored 45.36 seconds, and Qiu Wen also ran 45.47 seconds.
Almost in the blink of an eye, originally only Zhang Ziyi had a chance to qualify for the World Championships, but now Qiu Wen also has a chance to win a star...
Wang Zhengsheng also shook his head in amazement and sighed: "This Su Bai is incredible."
"Isn't that right?" Liao Jie, the director of the marketing department, also praised: "He has excellent coaching skills, a good eye for selecting players, and flexible ideas. He coordinates the 400-meter men's and women's teams very well, and the competition and promotion effects between the two sides are also excellent."
"The idea of using the winter training competition to promote athletics is also very good. So far, the publicity effect of this competition is very good. Judging from the big data feedback from sports channels and Weibo platforms, it has indeed attracted a large number of non-athletics enthusiasts to come and watch the competition."
"During today's competition, the proportion of non-athletics enthusiasts in the audience has been much higher than in the past. These are real data improvements and a good start for our promotion."
Liao Jie paused and added, "There is another interesting data here today. In today's competition, the peak of the entire ratings was not the events we originally expected, but the preliminaries of the 400m men's and women's teams."
At this point, Liao Jie smiled and said, "I personally speculate that this should be related to the exposure of the competition mechanism between the men's and women's teams on the Internet. Many netizens are very interested in this matter and have even gone to our official Weibo to request us to release the top 5 winners of each day."
Wang Zhengsheng and Jiang Wentao also laughed when they heard this - they all knew about this top 5 list. It was really hard for Su Bai, who looked like such a well-behaved and serious kid, to come up with such a trick.
Of course, the discussion was not just about the 400-meter event.
In today's event, there is another key piece of information, that is, Fang Yu easily ran to 10.03 in the preliminaries.
Everyone present is a veteran track and field athlete. They have just replayed Fang Yu's competition and can all see that in today's preliminaries, Fang Yu really hadn't let go of his full potential.
In other words, if Fang Yu runs at full speed today, it is very likely that he will break the long-lost 10-second mark again!
The importance of this information is no less than the fact that all members refreshed their pb in the previous 400-meter event.
Wang Zhengsheng frowned and knocked on the table: "Go ask Pei Jinan if it will affect his personal training status in the subsequent winter training and his personal status adjustment in the 19th season if Fang Yu runs at full speed tomorrow."
The secretary standing next to Wang Zhengsheng was about to make a phone call but was stopped by Jiang Wentao.
"Hmm? Lao Jiang, do you have any additional questions?"
Jiang Wentao smiled and shook his head, then said, "Old Wang, have you forgotten the report that Pei Jinan submitted to us before?"
Hearing this, Wang Zhengsheng suddenly realized: "I almost forgot!"
Before the start of winter training, Pei Jinan submitted a report to the Athletics Management Center, in which he explained Su Bai's suggestions and plans, and said that after the start of winter training, the coaching staff would begin to use the training plan provided by Su Bai for Fang Yu.
Pei Jinan reported this matter in advance and also informed the Field Management Center. He also stated that he personally agreed to this matter and that if there were any problems, he would also bear joint responsibility.
When Wang Zhengsheng and Jiang Wentao learned about this, they specially communicated with Pei Jinan, and then they knew how Su Bai had proved his ability.
"That's right. Then, Xiaolin, you should call Pei Jinan and ask him to ask Su Bai to see if it will affect the original training plan."
About 5 minutes later, Secretary Lin returned to the office and told Wang Zhengsheng and others, "Coach Su responded that there will be no impact."
Upon hearing this reply, Wang Zhengsheng, Jiang Wentao, Liao Jie and others' eyes lit up - this Asian Six Nations Joint Track and Field Competition was originally intended for publicity and promotion. What if Fang Yu, the pride of the yellow race who once broke the 10-second barrier for the 100-meter dash, could run under 10 seconds again in this competition?
There is no doubt that the track and field events, which have been silent for a long time, will once again usher in a huge wave of attention!
"In that case." Wang Zhengsheng said with a smile: "Then let's take a gamble. Xiaolin, Liao Jie, go and make arrangements immediately. Increase the media exposure and publicity efforts. I hope to hear good news about Fang Yu tomorrow!"
The next day was January 1, 2019
On this day, the weather in H City was not very good, and there was a drizzle in the sky, but this did not affect the progress of the six-nation joint competition.
Starting from last night, in the atmosphere of celebrating the New Year, the momentum of the Six Nations Combined Competition has become even grander. Track and field fans and spectators seem to be affected by this atmosphere. They locked on the live broadcast platform of the sports channel early in the morning and began to look forward to today's game!
