Chapter 105
In the audience seats, Zheng Sheng was still in a trance when he saw Su Yu's name written on the third line on the electronic screen.
"How much...what is Su Yu's ranking?"
Not sure if it was because he was too old or because the wind and sand blinded his eyes, but Zheng Sheng felt that there was a blurry light in front of his eyes and he couldn't see the data on the large electronic screen at all.
"third!!!"
"Coach Zheng, it's third!! Su Yu won the bronze medal in the 200m final tonight!!"
On the side, an equally excited Chinese team staff member turned around after hearing Zheng Sheng's question, grabbed Zheng Sheng's shoulders with both hands, and kept shaking him, saying to him excitedly and excitedly: "Coach Zheng! Su Yu got the bronze medal! Got the bronze medal!!!"
Around them, many of the Chinese team staff and players in the Chinese player area were hugging each other, crying and laughing.
"Great, this is really great!"
At this moment, the Chinese staff members sitting in the Chinese contestant area almost wanted to sing loudly, but Zheng Sheng, who had been cheering for Su Yu at the top of his lungs throughout the whole process, grinned when he heard the staff announce Su Yu's ranking. As he laughed, he covered his eyes with his hands and cried silently on the spot.
bronze medal……!
The Chinese team actually won a bronze medal in the men's 200m event at this World Youth Championships...!
When this achievement, which had already become an established fact, appeared in Zheng Sheng's mind, he still felt that everything was so dreamy and incredible...
The Chinese team... Is the Chinese team's 200 meters finally going to take off? !
As a pure Chinese track and field athlete, Zheng Sheng is also a middle-aged generation who has gone through the ups and downs of Chinese track and field for decades. Before him, the old coach who had led him to grow up was the older generation who truly watched the Chinese track and field team grow from its inception to its difficult and stumbling growth.
Like Zheng Sheng, the old coach who brought him up was also mainly responsible for the 200-meter event. Compared with those days, people still feel that it is not easy for athletes and the development of the 200-meter event in this era, let alone those days.
Zheng Sheng always remembered that his teacher would often say to him:
'Sheng, in such a huge country like China, what we lack is never talent. What they lack is better training conditions, better coaching guidance, more advanced teaching concepts and nutritional conditions...'
'Sheng, sometimes I just feel bad for these kids. Look at the training methods we give them, most of them are just home-grown methods we came up with. Don't these kids have any talent? That’s not... This is your master and I can’t create better training conditions for them. '
"Sheng, I'm old now, I'm afraid I won't be able to see our 200m runners stand on the World Youth Championships, World Championships... and the Olympic medals, but you are still young, if you still remember me when the time comes, wait for the day when our athletes stand on the podium, and send me a message so that I can join in the fun down there..."
“Victory…”
Those words, which Zheng Sheng had always felt were nagging and troublesome back then, now echoed clearly in his mind word by word, so much so that Zheng Sheng was now covering his face in the audience, crying and laughing at the same time. He could not tell whether he was happy that his years of expectation had finally come true, or sad that his teacher did not live to see this day.
But... no matter what, this day has finally arrived!
When leading the team to Tampere, Finland this time, Zheng Sheng actually understood that for Su Yu, his heaviest burden this time was the men's 100-meter event. As long as Su Yu could get a good enough result in the 100-meter event, no matter how bad his result in the 200-meter was, there would definitely be rewards waiting for Su Yu when he returned to China.
The reason for this is not because the importance of men's 200 meters is really much less than that of men's 100 meters, but because, looking at both 100 meters and 200 meters, there is only one Su Yu in the Chinese team.
No matter how strong Su Yu is, he is just a 15-year-old kid.
He has objective limitations - explosiveness, strength, physical fitness and competitive state.
You can expect him to be in good enough shape in the 100m preliminaries, semifinals and finals, but can you expect him to be in good enough shape in the 200m race after participating in the three individual events of the 100m?
From the moment Su Yu had to compete in both events, it was destined that the one with a later schedule would be negatively affected by the loss of Su Yu's physical fitness and condition.
Zheng Sheng knew all these situations and understood them, so he had already prepared himself mentally and had set up a warning line in his mind - it's okay, no matter how Su Yu ran, he was doing well!
After all, in the first two days of the competition, Su Yu had exceeded his target in the 100-meter event, and beyond everyone's imagination, he won a gold medal in the men's 100-meter final.
Not only that, after winning the men's 100m gold medal, Su Yu also won consecutive victories in yesterday's preliminaries and semifinals, and finally successfully qualified for the men's 200m final.
For Zheng Sheng, this is enough, more than enough!
Just as Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming mentioned in the commentary - in tonight's men's 200m final, Su Yu only needs to take the field to represent a milestone progress for the Chinese team.
Before tonight's final, Zheng Sheng had thought that in this final, even if Su Yu only came in last place, he would still be a hero of the Chinese team!
Of course, if I could get fifth, sixth, or seventh place, that would be even better...
As for the top four, it is even better to win medals...
Zheng Sheng didn't even dare to think of such a possibility.
After all, look at the composition of the contestants in this competition... The American team has Marcus Stewart and Clint Hudson, and the British team has Oliver Wells and Nicholas Olindlin, who have emerged as talented players since last season. In addition to them, there is also a South African player Ismael Schaeffers who can run 20.41 seconds in the 200 meters...
In the semi-finals, Japan's Yusuke Sasaki, whose PB was 20.54, failed to make it to the finals.
Facing these opponents, how can a 15-year-old who has already run five times in four match days be expected to break into the top four?
This is nothing short of a fantasy!
Therefore, Zheng Sheng has already prepared himself mentally. He will just watch the game carefully tonight. No matter what result Su Yu gets in the end, he will cheer and applaud this great hero of the Chinese team!
But……
What he didn't expect was that Su Yu, a 15-year-old boy, had never given up on things that he didn't even dare to think about!
In this game, from the moment the starting gun sounded, Su Yu's performance made his scalp tingle, so much so that he stood up and cheered for Su Yu at the top of his lungs at Su Yu's firm performance!
After all, even Su Yu didn't give up, so how could he, as the team leader, give up so quietly?
And when he saw Su Yu gritting his teeth and breaking through his previous habits, breaking through his past explosive acceleration rhythm at the start, and sprinting and accelerating firmly until the last moment in this final, his heart had already been conquered by the firm will that Su Yu showed on the field.
This is an amazing child!
If before today, Zheng Sheng's expectation for Su Yu was just that Su Yu could catch up with Zhan Youming's footsteps after adulthood and become Zhan Youming's "successor", then after today, Zheng Sheng's expectation for Su Yu has undergone a complete change.
Zheng Sheng thought - this child could surpass Zhan Youming.
Surpassing Zhan Youming, he has become a new name card for the Chinese team in the men's 200 meters, and a new spokesperson for the Chinese team in the men's 200 meters. He can also lead the Chinese team's 200 meters to a broader and faster world track in the future...!
***
In the live commentary room of Jigu Video, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming might not have lost control of their emotions like Zheng Sheng, but they knew in their hearts that they were indeed more excited than many people expected, so much so that in their commentary they only remembered the fact that Su Yu won the medal, and forgot that Su Yu's performance in this game was also amazing.
"Congratulations to Su Yu, congratulations to the Chinese team, and congratulations to him once again - in today's men's 200m final, Su Yu not only successfully won the bronze medal in the men's 200m event, but also set a new personal best in this game!"
"Yes, 20.59 seconds!!! Su Yu ran a great time of 20.59 seconds in tonight's final! This not only means that he has broken the Chinese U18 record, but also that this result is very close to the Chinese U20 record of 20.52 seconds!"
"What's even more frightening is that Su Yu is only 15 years old and still has a long way to go before he can reach the U18 or U20 level."
"At the same time, the 20.59 seconds that Su Yu ran tonight was achieved under a headwind of 0.1m/s, which means that Su Yu should have the ability to run within 20.80 seconds on a relatively stable basis - and he is still only 15 years old."
"In short, in tonight's men's 200m final, Su Yu not only successfully won a bronze medal, but also showed us his unlimited potential! I think we can fully expect that in the near future, Su Yu may further improve his 200m results to an even more incredible height...!"
"Let us all wish this rising star of the Chinese team our best and hope that he will achieve even more brilliant results in the near future!!"
***
It was just after Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming finally remembered to reintroduce Su Yu's 200-meter final results that the cheers of the track and field fans who were cheering on the public screen of the Jigu video live broadcast room suddenly stopped.
It’s not because there’s no need to celebrate, but because many slow-witted people have finally remembered - oh, yes! They had just celebrated for a while, and because they were so excited, they didn’t pay any attention to Su Yu’s results! ! !
However, the bystanders in the live broadcast room did not fully understand the meaning of this result, so they did not have any special feeling after hearing it. They simply thought that running 200 meters in just over 20 seconds was really too fast.
After hearing Su Yu's 200-meter result, the track and field fans were briefly paused, so much so that the public screen in the live broadcast room was empty for a while.
【? ? ? Why are there suddenly so many fewer barrages? ? ? 】
[Is it because you heard about Su Yu’s results? ? 】
[By the way, is a score of 20.59 seconds really that impressive? Well, I'm just a passerby, I don't know much about the situation, so please don't criticize me. I know that 20.59 seconds is really fast. After all, it takes me more than ten seconds to run 50 meters. I mainly want to understand how awesome this is. After all, I originally came here just to watch the show, and now I really don't understand it...】
It was also after hearing the comments of these passers-by that the frozen track and field fans finally reacted vaguely.
Damn!
Ahhhhh! ! !
What were they doing just now? !
They were obviously celebrating excitedly, but it seemed like they weren't celebrating enough yet! ! !
When these stiff track and field fans came to their senses, someone posted a comment on the public screen of the live broadcast room to answer this question. However, judging from the tone of the person's reply, he was still in a trance.
[Ah... just... what level is 20.59? Hehe, it’s not that great… probably just… second best in the country (.]
? ? ?
As soon as this barrage came out, the bystanders who had raised questions before became even more confused.
ha?
Second in the country?
Isn’t that awesome?
Not long after, a few similar dazed comments appeared again -
[Ha, haha... Yeah, it's not that great. In other words, among all the active Chinese athletes in all these years, except for Zhan Youming, no one has ever run under 20.60 seconds...]
[Hehe, yes, that is to say, as of 2012, China's men's 200m national record is 20.54 seconds... 20.59 seconds, there is still a gap of 0.05 seconds from 20.54 seconds...]
[Hehehe, yes, anyway, it’s probably about this level. It’s just that a 15-year-old teenager won the gold medal in the men’s 100m at the World Youth Championships, and then won the bronze medal in the 200m at the World Youth Championships. He created new history in the Chinese team’s sprint in two individual events twice in a row…]
[Hehehe, hahaha, huhuhuhu…]
The bystanders in the live broadcast room originally simply did not understand the situation. After seeing the track and field fans in the live broadcast room start to talk nonsense, they were just confused at first, but in the second half they finally understood - what these track and field fans said was definitely not "just that".
It is obvious that these track and field fans are now in the state of Fan Jin who passed the imperial examination. They are all talking nonsense and are really crazy!
But no matter how crazy they were, these bystanders finally came to their senses after seeing the state of these track and field fans - Oh shit, so that's how it is, a result of 20.59 seconds is such an awesome level? !
So it means that among the current athletes, except Zhan Youming and Su Yu, other athletes are unable to run under 20.60 seconds?
These bystanders originally thought that these track and field fans were going crazy and no one could answer their questions seriously. However, after they sent their questions, someone quickly gave them answers.
What else? 】
[Then what else could the sentence 'Except for Zhan Youming and Su Yu, no one can run under 20.60 seconds' mean? 】
【……】
These bystanders thought that the track and field fans who were not sober at the moment were really nitpicking, but they also saw that these track and field fans were really excited, so they didn't mind it too much, but explained why they asked this question -
[The main thing is, isn’t Su Yu only 15 years old? And today's game is the World Youth Championship, right? It's a U20 level event, but looking at the final just now, the British champion ran 20.42 seconds, and the American team's player ran 20.47 seconds. Also, Nicholas, who almost beat Su Yu, if it weren't for his foul, his result would have been 20.59 seconds, right? There are so many U20 athletes who can run under 20.60 seconds. Oh, isn’t it said that Ismail from South Africa’s personal best is still 20.41 seconds? The American team’s name seems to be…】
Seeing this bystander typing such a long string of words, the track and field fans in the live broadcast room fell silent, and finally sighed helplessly.
[Yes, you are right - but as you can see, Su Yu is indeed the second Chinese athlete who has run under 20.60 seconds :)]
[In fact, you can count the results of the World Youth Championships by yourselves, and the fact is just as you have seen, China's men's 200 meters is actually not just 200 meters, the same is true for 100 meters. In these two events, China seemed to have achieved very good results in the past two years. In fact, it was the two players Zheng Tianxi and Zhan Youming who carried everything - of course, now there is Feng Chuming.
Apart from these names that even passers-by can name, the backbone of the Chinese team is world-class...not to mention world-class, there is still a certain gap between them and the Asian first-class level.
Of course, in recent years the 100 meters has actually gotten much better than in the past, because all of China's sprint teaching and scientific research efforts are focused on the 100 meters. The hope is to first accumulate enough experience in the 100 meters, and then use that experience to drive the 200 and 400 meter events, which are also sprints.
Now, after so many years of study and development, our country has achieved certain results in teaching and research on the 100-meter race. So you can see that the backbone forces of our country's 100-meter race have gradually emerged.
But apart from 100 meters, 200 meters and 400 meters...it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a desert now.
In the 200 meters, Zhan Youming actually grew up in a wild way. His growth has a lot to do with his personal ability and talent. The best thing the Chinese team did was to invest enough training resources in Zhan Youming after discovering him, and to find excellent coaching teams both at home and abroad to provide him with targeted training.
But apart from Zhan Youming, the Chinese team is actually quite lacking in talent in the men's 200m event...
Just like the threshold of 20.60 seconds - as you can see, among the current active players of the Chinese team, except for Zhan Youming, Su Yu is the second player who has successfully broken the 20.60 second mark in so many years.
As for the result of 20.60 seconds, how amazing is it for the men's 200 meters? Actually, not entirely true... Why do I say that?
Because the qualifying line for the men’s 200m at the 2019 World Championships (← not the U20 World Championships, but one of the world’s top track and field events) is… 20.40 seconds.
In other words, even if Su Yu has already run a result of 20.59 seconds in my country, as of now, among my country's male 200m runners, only Zhan Youming has reached the 200m competition standard for next year's World Championships - by the way, the qualifying score for the men's 400m in the World Championships is 45.30 seconds, which even exceeds my country's men's 400m national record. Currently, there is no player in my country who has the hope of reaching the qualifying line for the men's 400m in next year's World Championships.
I know this is incredible, but it is true.
Maybe many passers-by don’t know this? Before this World Youth Championship, because Su Yu ran 20.79 seconds in the Asian Games trials and ranked second in the final, the national team and the Sports Federation were not considering whether to give Su Yu another Asian Games spot.
During the time when Su Yu was participating in the World Youth Championships, Gao Yansong, the second Chinese man in the 200m, was also traveling overseas to compete, hoping to make a breakthrough in his performance so as to compete with Su Yu for the qualification to participate in the Asian Games.
Of course, up to now, we have not seen the news of Gao Yansong opening the 20.60 second level, but before Gao Yansong, that is, now, Su Yu has already opened the 20.60 second level before him.
If nothing unexpected happens, after the Chinese team's Asian Games quota is officially announced, the final spots in the men's 200 meters should go to Zhan Youming and Su Yu. 】
Maybe it was because they had gone crazy enough before, so this time after a bystander raised the question, track and field fans began to piece together the complete reasons and logic through scattered comments.
After those bystanders finally understood the story behind the result of 20.59 seconds through those long comments, many people finally understood the excitement of those track and field fans about Su Yu winning the bronze medal in the World Youth Championships, and their excitement about Su Yu's result of 20.59 seconds.
because……
These guys who love track and field and sprint events didn’t know how long they had waited before the Chinese team finally had a world-class U20 athlete and world-class results!
Faced with the emergence of such a young player, how can these guys who love track and field not be happy and excited?
Some bystanders caught the new point first:
[Eh? So... after Su Yu finishes the World Youth Championship this time, he will immediately participate in the Asian Games, right? Doesn’t that mean that we will be able to watch Su Yu’s game again soon? ! 】
Well, to be honest, these bystanders have never had the habit of paying so much attention to the competition in the past, but... since this season, it seems that track and field-related gossips and hot searches have never stopped on Weibo and other major social platforms.
Just like the old saying goes - human nature is to admire the strong.
When the Chinese team's sprinting was not strong enough, bystanders would subconsciously avoid topics related to sprinting. However, from the fact that Zheng Tianxi, Feng Chuming and Zhan Youming are well-known to bystanders, it is not difficult to see that when the Chinese team has truly capable players, people are still willing to pay attention to such events.
There is no one who does not want to see the outstanding performance of athletes from their own country in international competitions. The stronger the Chinese players are, the more willing the audience will naturally be to see such events.
Just like the upcoming Jakarta Asian Games.
In this Asian Games in Jakarta, China has Zheng Tianxi and Feng Chuming in the men's 100m, and Zhan Youming, currently the No. 1 player in Asia, and Su Yu, who is arguably the No. 1 U20 player in Asia this season, in the men's 200m!
With so many factors added together, it is no surprise that the audience is looking forward to the arrival of the Asian Games.
Of course, what these bystanders think is much simpler than track and field fans. What they think is that Su Yu can run better results in almost every game in this World Youth Championship...
So at the Asian Games, will Su Yu have a chance to run a better result than in the World Youth Championship final? !
Didn’t those track and field fans just say that? At next year's Doha World Athletics Championships, there will be only one Chinese male 200m athlete who will meet the standards, Zhan Youming!
Now Su Yu will have another chance to participate in the competition. If Su Yu participates in a few more games, who knows, maybe one day he will make a breakthrough and then he can go to the Doha World Championships next year hand in hand with Zhan Youming? !
It was fortunate that these bystanders did not speak their thoughts out loud, otherwise the track and field fans at the scene would have shown them what "my mother tongue is speechless" means on the spot.
After all, compared to these bystanders, track and field fans know better how difficult it is for track and field athletes to improve and enhance their performance.
Without mentioning the distant past, let’s just talk about the most recent one - Jiang Yuan and Vladislav, who just won double gold medals in the high jump final. These two young high jump geniuses have top talents in the high jump event and also have very good basic conditions.
But Jiang Yuan's PB has been stuck at 2.28 meters since last season, and it has even hit a low this season, with his results hovering between 2.22 meters and 2.24 meters for a long time. Even though Jiang Yuan seems to have broken through the bottleneck now, especially his long jump result has reached 8.19 meters, but his high jump result has only barely broken through to 2.29 meters until tonight's final.
It should be noted that as early as last year's winter training period, there were rumors in the circle that Jiang Yuan had jumped 2.29 meters during the winter training period.
In other words, it was only now, halfway through this season and almost coming to an end, that Jiang Yuan succeeded in jumping 2.29 meters for the first time in an official competition.
Improved his high jump PB by 0.01m.
At the same time, Vladislav, who won one of the two gold medals in the men's high jump together with Jiang Yuan, was a talented athlete from Ukraine. He had already achieved an official competition result of 2.29 meters a long time ago. However, in tonight's final, Vladislav failed to break through the height of 2.31 meters after three desperate attempts.
For Jiang Yuan and Vladislav, they did not refresh their high jump PBs. Does that mean they don’t want to improve their results?
No, it's just because they can't.
Of course, although the ideas of these bystanders seem a little whimsical, it is indeed a beautiful expectation - although track and field fans always remind themselves to "be rational", in fact, who is not really looking forward to the emergence of another Chinese athlete who can break 20.40 seconds?
The reason why they are "rational" is that they try to reduce their expectations as much as possible to avoid the disappointment that comes with expectations.
***
In the live broadcast room of Jigu Video in China, while track and field fans and bystanders were chatting excitedly with each other, in the live broadcast room of the World Youth Championship in Japan, the well-known Japanese track and field commentator Akira Yamamoto had just expressed his admiration for this final.
"Amazing Wolf Son! This is a player who is too young but already great enough!"
"In this game, Wolf Son perfectly seized every opportunity. In the end, he relied on his grasp of opportunities and his ambition for victory to unwaveringly win the victory that belonged to him!"
"0.119 seconds, this is simply a miraculous reaction speed at the start - but in this race, the most commendable thing about Wolf Son is not even the reaction speed of 0.119 seconds, but also his inner desire for victory, his perfect control of his body in the early stages, and his courage to make an unprecedented burst of speed in the early stages!"
"Courage, wisdom, control, speed and endurance - if there is one thing that Wolf Son lost in this game... oh, maybe it was his age."
"A 15-year-old World Youth Championships men's 100m gold medalist and men's 200m bronze medalist - all this is simply incredible! I would like to call it a miracle!!"
In the live broadcast room of the World Youth Championship in Japan, Yamamoto Akira did not hesitate to use the most gorgeous words he could to describe his praise for Su Yu. His excitement and excitement were visible to the naked eye.
But at the same time, there was a long period of blankness and silence on the public screen of the Japanese live broadcast room.
Of course, there were also some sporadic comments from Japanese viewers during this period, but these comments seemed so lonely and desolate on the silent public screen of the live broadcast room.
But there is no way. In this World Youth Championship, whether it is Naoto Takahashi and Takitaro Fukushima, who are highly expected by Japanese track and field enthusiasts, or Shogo Ando and Yusuke Sasaki in the men's 200 meters...
None of these young players who are well-known in Japan have ever successfully defeated Su Yu.
Yes, no one.
Even Yusuke Sasaki, whose 200m PB is 20.54 seconds - before that, they didn't even bother to compare Yusuke Sasaki with China's Wolf Sons, because they believed that Wolf Sons and Yusuke Sasaki were not at the same level of athletes.
Yusuke Sasaki, who has a PB of 20.54, and Wolf Son, who had a PB of 20.79 before the World Junior Championships - is there any comparison between them?
No Japanese track and field fan thought that Wolf Son was good enough to be compared with Yusuke Sasaki, just as no one thought that Wolf Son could be compared with Takitaro Fukushima before the World Youth Championships.
For the Japanese team that sent Fukushima Takitaro and Sasaki Yusuke to the competition, they expect Fukushima Takitaro and Sasaki Yusuke to win gold in the men's 100m and 200m at the World Youth Championships.
But now both the men's 100m and 200m events have ended, and the dreams of Japanese track and field enthusiasts have been shattered.
Win gold?
Oh no, they didn't even get a medal!
For Japanese track and field fans, the World Youth Championships sprint events in the past few days were like a nightmare from which one could not wake up. In this nightmare, the Wolf Sons, who were originally declared to have "fallen", won medals and even gold medals in the 100m and 200m events!
For Japanese track and field fans who have watched the 100m and 200m events in the past few days, the name Wolf Son Su Yu has become their nightmare - oh, no, it has even become the nightmare of all Japanese U20 players!
They simply couldn't imagine that he was just a 15-year-old player from the Chinese team... He even looked so weak. Oh, yes, after the 200-meter final tonight, he even fell to his knees at the finish line due to exhaustion!
This is one such player...
How did he win?
That night, countless Japanese track and field fans stayed awake all night, but many of them were impressed by Su Yu's determination on the field while constantly reviewing the video of the game that night - yes, the Wolf Son was so powerful and charming, and when the live camera cut to a close-up, the firm ambition for victory in the eyes of the 15-year-old boy made these Japanese track and field fans couldn't help but be moved by this young man from China.
Just like Taichi Shimayama who also watched the live broadcast these days, just like the track and field commentator Akira Yamamoto who praised Su Yu without reservation, just like... many Japanese track and field fans.
Just when some of these Japanese track and field enthusiasts began to waver in their feelings towards Su Yu, many Japanese media outlets wrote articles about the World Youth Championships overnight.
"2018 World Youth Athletics Championships in Tampere, Finland - The darkest moment for Japanese sprinting!" 》
"2018, the Devil is Coming!" Is Japan's status as a sprinting powerhouse at risk? ! 》
"The terrifying genius Wolf Son from China!" Comment by Akira Yamamoto - His only weakness is his age! In the future, he may become the biggest nightmare of Japanese sprinting! ! ! 》
Compared with the panic-filled and pattern-filled speeches of the Japanese media, the Chinese media seemed to be completely delighted even when they were writing their articles that night.
"The Chinese team successfully won one gold and one bronze tonight, and their ranking in the medal table has improved again! 》
"The Chinese team achieved historic breakthroughs in the men's 100m and 200m events at the World Youth Championships in Tampere, Finland - China's 15-year-old teenager became the biggest contributor to the sprint at this World Youth Championships!" ! 》
_(:зゝ∠)_
Well, it can be said that the reports from the two countries are very different!
