Chapter 202
【ah? Is that it? 】
On the public screen of the Jigu Video live broadcast room, many spectators who were nervous before the race now had confused looks on their faces as they watched Su Yu easily cross the finish line.
[Um, no, when Su Yu was crossing the finish line just now, didn’t he even cross the finish line? 】
【↑It is suggested to delete the three words "is it?" here. Be more confident. He just didn't do it. 】
【? ? ? 】
As the spectators looked at the scene in front of them, the faces in front of their computer screens or mobile phone screens all looked a little confused.
If they remembered correctly, there was a topic on Weibo this morning about foreign media criticizing Su Yu's performance in the preliminaries. Although it later became a gathering place for people who just wanted to have fun, some Olympic spectators who didn't like to post on Weibo were still a little nervous, fearing that Su Yu would accidentally become like what the foreign media said on Weibo.
As a result, in the 200-meter preliminaries just now, Su Yu didn't even leave them any room to be nervous, and finished the race so easily.
Why do you say it’s easy?
Just after Su Yu successfully crossed the finish line, teacher Zhou Jiming also introduced Su Yu's starting reaction time in the previous group of competitions, which was 0.158 seconds.
For ordinary athletes, this reaction speed is not too bad, but for Su Yu, even the audience who started watching Su Yu's competitions after the start of the Olympics already had some idea of Su Yu's super starting reaction speed.
Based on Su Yu's normal reaction speed, he can roughly squeeze out 0.03 seconds from the 0.158 seconds.
This data is already amazing for sprinters!
Not to mention Su Yu's obviously slowed pace in the last 20 meters and his complete lack of intention to cross the finish line.
Anyone who has watched Su Yu's past competitions will know that no matter whether it is 100 meters, 200 meters or 400 meters, Su Yu has very terrifying abilities in the latter part of the race.
The latter part of the 100 meters was the stage where Su Yu accelerated explosively. Compared with other players, his momentum was completely unstoppable.
The latter part of the 400 meters is slightly inferior, but Su Yu's explosive acceleration in the last 50 meters of the 400-meter race is also a huge threat to the other players in the latter part of the 400-meter race.
And as for 200 meters?
The 200-meter race has always been the comfort zone that best suits Su Yu's physical fitness, acceleration and other abilities. In the 200-meter race, the 80-meter straight section after Su Yu enters the straight road from the curve is almost completely within his dominant area.
Many of Su Yu's opponents were able to suppress him briefly in the early stages, but once they reached the latter stage of the 200-meter race, Su Yu's maximum segment speed in the last 80 meters had reached a very scary level.
Nowadays, there are a group of fans on the Internet who call him the teleporter or the Flash. The original source of Su Yu's "teleporter" is his 200-meter acceleration in the latter part - it is difficult for you to see how Su Yu accelerates and bursts out and then surpasses his opponents. Usually, as soon as you are distracted, Su Yu has already surpassed one or two opponents.
However, Su Yu did not exert much effort in the latter part of the 200 meters today - or it should not be said that he did not exert much effort. In fact, Su Yu still surpassed his opponents continuously in the final straight track, but his surpassing this time did not have the feeling of "lightning" or "teleportation".
Not to mention that his speed slowed down significantly in the last 20 meters.
The Olympic spectators on the Internet were dumbfounded when they saw Su Yu's performance, and they didn't know how to evaluate Su Yu's performance in the 200m preliminaries.
Some people even complained silently on Weibo:
[So, Emperor Yu, didn’t you agree to work hard? 】
There was also a track and field fan who passed by and left a comment: […Just tell me whether Yu Di has tried hard to surpass the fifth place to the third place? 】
[Just tell me whether Yudi has worked hard enough to successfully advance to the semi-finals? 】
[Just tell me whether Yu Di has worked hard to improve his acting skills! 】
Blogger: “…”
Thanks for the invitation. I am really surprised by Yu Di's efforts.
But despite all the complaints, these Olympic spectators were actually quite happy and relaxed - just as Su Yu had expected before the game, the more relaxed and confident he appeared, the more the audience's trust in the Chinese team would also become more relaxed.
At this time, Su Yu, who crossed the finish line easily, was also breathing slightly, but looking at his state of not even bending his waist, it can be known that today's Olympic men's 200m preliminaries was probably just a practice match for him.
Soon, the final results of this preliminary round came out.
The top two players ran 20.50 and 20.53 seconds respectively, while Su Yu, who ranked third in the group and advanced to the semi-finals, ran an "excellent" time of 20.64 seconds.
As for the fourth-place contestants, their results were all outside 20.80 seconds. It can only be said that the vast majority of contestants in this group pose no threat to Su Yu.
In the audience seats, Zhong Wen and others from No. 12 Middle School were amazed at Su Yu's performance.
"My goodness, the result of the 200m preliminary round today by the God of Learning is really amazing!"
Those who would come to Tokyo to watch Su Yu's competition were all students who had been paying attention to Su Yu's performance for a long time. They were very interested in the "super memory" that Su Yu showed in "Super Brain Power Season", so a group of people also memorized the performance data of Su Yu and some other players together, and used it as the content of memory training.
However, this memory training is not easy to do, and the current results are average. But the good news is that these students are already familiar with Su Yu's 100m, 200m and 400m results.
One of them lamented: "After the World Youth Championships, few of our students ran out of 20.60 seconds, right?"
As for the World Youth Championship, that is all from the 2018 season.
It can be seen that their god of study let off a lot of steam today.
"20.64 seconds..."
Zhong Wen was about to say, "With this result, we can easily advance to the 200m semi-finals," but then he suddenly remembered that this result was actually a very remarkable result in China.
After all, among the domestic 200-meter sprinters, only four have successfully run under 20.60 seconds: Zhan Youming, Su Yu, Gao Yansong and Zhou Yuang.
Among other well-known domestic 200m athletes such as Li Qingci, Zhang Lei, and Zhang Zaihui, the one closest to the 20.60 mark is Li Qingci, who has already achieved a result of 20.61. However, even so, Li Qingci has been stuck at this result for more than one season.
As you can imagine, breaking the 20.60 second barrier is not an easy goal, and 20.64 seconds is also not a result that ordinary athletes can easily achieve.
After realizing this, Zhong Wen looked back at Su Yu on the field and felt even more emotional.
Zhong Wen turned to his cousin Wang Yangming and said, "Brother, our academic god can now do things so easily?"
After hearing what Zhong Wen said, Wang Yangming knew what he meant.
He nodded with emotion: "That's right!"
He easily ran 20.64 seconds to advance to the semi-finals, which is definitely the level of a world-class 200-meter athlete.
Su Yu's second group of preliminaries went so smoothly, so there won't be any big problems when it comes to Zhan Youming's sixth group of preliminaries.
This is indeed the case.
In the sixth group of preliminaries, Zhan Youming finally won the third place in the group with a score of 20.28 seconds, and took the last direct qualifying spot for the semifinals in this group.
The reason why the performance gap for the semi-finals is so big is mainly because this group includes Zhan Youming and several well-known athletes from the United States, Britain and Italy. In this group, there are four athletes who have broken the 20-second mark in the 200 meters.
At the same time, the Dominican players in this group probably knew that they were not strong enough, but they had the opportunity to compete in the same group with these world-class players, so they simply sprinted with all their might.
In the end, the Dominican athlete ran a good time of 20.17 seconds in this group of preliminaries, and also broke the Dominican men's 200-meter sprint record from 20.19 seconds originally held by him to 20.17 seconds.
It was the outburst of this Dominican player that triggered the final sprint of all players in this group.
However, although the overall strength of the players in Group 6 is indeed stronger relatively speaking, the strength of these players obviously did not affect Zhan Youming's direct qualification for the semi-finals.
When Zhan Youming's preliminaries were over and he returned to the backcourt lounge, he took a special look at Gao Yansong and patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, work hard later."
Gao Yansong had talked with Zheng Sheng in the backcourt locker room earlier, and his mentality has basically returned to normal.
Although he felt that it was useless for him to return to normal at this time, at least his relaxed state could make the atmosphere in the backcourt locker room feel a little more relaxed.
After Zhan Youming saw that Gao Yansong was indeed fine, he glanced at Su Yu who was lying on the bed receiving a massage from Liao Yongming.
Perhaps because the second group of preliminaries in the morning did not pose much pressure on Su Yu, Liao Yongming even relaxed his approach when adjusting Su Yu's post-match condition.
After Su Yu got up from the massage bed, Zhan Youming rubbed Su Yu's head with a funny look: "You little guy, your mentality is really stable."
Isn’t it?
Zheng Sheng, who was standing next to him, couldn't help laughing after hearing what Zhan Youming said.
He also watched a replay of Su Yu's group's preliminary race on his phone - they really ran too easily and too bravely, especially the last 20 meters...
Thinking of this, Zheng Sheng couldn't help but tell Su Yu, "Xiao Yu, sometimes you should be more cautious in competitions. Isn't it a bit early to start sprinting in the last 20 meters...?"
He didn't mean to say that Su Yu couldn't let go, but he felt that it would be safer if Su Yu could let go until the last 10 meters.
When Su Yu heard what Zheng Sheng said, he did not refute it. He just blinked and responded with "OK".
Pei Dingshan, who was standing nearby, smiled after hearing what Zheng Sheng said: "Coach Zheng, I guess Xiaoyu should have known what was going on in the game."
Su Yu overtook the two opponents from behind. Before the race, he had listed the data of all Su Yu's opponents in the same group to Su Yu. Pei Dingshan had no doubt that at the moment Su Yu completed the overtaking, he had calculated the speed difference between the two sides in his mind, and at the same time he had an idea of his opponent's ability in the later stage.
From the moment Su Yu surpassed his opponent to the last 20 meters when he gradually began to slow down, there was a distance of about 40 meters in between. Pei Dingshan was basically certain that Su Yu relaxed in the final stage only after he was sure that his opponent could not overtake him even if he slowed down.
Zheng Sheng was just about to complain to Pei Dingshan, "You are too protective of your own people," but out of the corner of his eye he noticed that Su Yu's face looked calm, and he didn't seem to think Pei Dingshan was wrong at all.
Immediately, Zheng Sheng had an absurd thought in his mind: "Xiao Yu, after you overtook those two opponents, you calculated in your mind that they couldn't overtake you, so you slowed down at the end?"
Su Yu blinked and nodded without denying it, but after two seconds, he added: "I roughly calculated the speed difference between us, and then combined their previous performance in the latter part of the race. I estimated that if I continue to maintain the current speed for another 30 to 40 meters, even if I start to slow down, they will not be able to catch up."
Zheng Sheng: “…”
The first thing Zheng Sheng wanted to say when he heard this answer was "How is that possible?", but after listening to it, he quickly remembered Su Yu's other identity besides being a sprinter.
Thinking about Su Yu's performance in the show "Super Brain Power Season", Zheng Sheng swallowed back the words "how is it possible" that were about to come out of his mouth.
Finally, he looked Su Yu up and down, and then said with emotion: "Okay, then you can know the answer yourself."
He was originally just worried about Su Yu's young age, and that children sometimes tend to get carried away, so he gave an extra reminder. But now that he was sure that Su Yu knew the situation himself, there was no need to continue talking about it.
Zheng Sheng then waved his hand and asked Su Yu and Zhan Youming: "It's almost 12 o'clock now, why don't you go back to the Olympic Village to rest for half a day in the afternoon?"
Although Su Yu had the experience of staying in the backcourt lounge of the Olympic Stadium for a lunch break before, Su Yu's evening game started too early that time, so even if he returned to the Olympic Village, he could not rest for too long and had to go back and forth.
But today is different.
After the 200m preliminaries this morning, the 200m semi-finals in the evening will start at 20:50. There are nearly 9 hours in between. Even if we cut out the more than two-hour round-trip driving time and the warm-up time in advance, we can at least rest for five or six hours in the Olympic Village.
Even if the soundproofing in the Olympic Village is poor, it is my own bed that I have been sleeping in for these days. The cafeteria in the Olympic Village is also good. I can have lunch in the lounge, go back and take a nap, and have a comfortable dinner in the evening before the competition.
Zheng Sheng felt that according to today's arrangement, it would be better to go back to the Olympic Village.
After listening to Zheng Sheng's estimate, Su Yu and Zhan Youming both agreed with Zheng Sheng's statement.
So after eating the lunch that Zheng Sheng specially asked the staff to bring to Su Yu and Zhan Youming, Su Yu followed Zhan Youming and others on the national team's bus back to the Olympic Village.
On the bus, Zhan Youming sat down in the morning and pulled Su Yu to sit next to him. After the bus started, Zhan Youming put his arm around Su Yu's shoulders and asked him with a smile: "Su Xiaoyu, how are you going to sprint for the semi-final tonight?"
Just now, while they were having lunch, the group list and lane schedule for the evening's semi-finals had been announced.
However, compared with the grouping in the preliminary stage in the morning, Su Yu's luck in tonight's semi-finals was not so good.
Su Yu has always been very self-aware about his luck in grouping. After seeing the group list for the evening, he did not feel too much pressure. Instead, just like what Zhan Youming asked, he was thinking about how he should rush tonight.
In the three semi-final groups tonight, Zhan Youming will appear in the third group of the semi-finals, while Su Yu's group is the same as in the preliminaries, still in the second group.
In the second group of tonight's semi-finals, there are a total of 8 contestants including Su Yu, of which 6 broke the 20-second mark.
A very outrageous number.
Among these eight players, there are only two who failed to break the 20-second mark. One of them is naturally Su Yu, whose PB is 20.12, and the other is the Dominican star who just broke the Dominican national record and was in the same group with Zhan Youming in the preliminaries this morning.
That is to say, in this group's 200m semi-final, Su Yu's personal best in history was once again the second to last.
It's really cause for celebration.
Faced with such a "gratifying" group lineup, even Zheng Sheng didn't know what to say for a moment.
Zheng Sheng, who was sitting in the seat in front of Su Yu and Zhan Youming, pressed his forehead with a headache and complained, "What the hell is going on?"
As he said that, Zheng Sheng turned his head and looked at Zhan Youming behind him: "In Su Yu's group tonight, there are two talented young players from the American team, right?"
Zhan Youming couldn't help but laugh: "They are not two talented young players from the American team, but two talented young players 'from the United States'."
After a pause, Zhan Youming thought for a moment and said, "Of course, according to their age group, they should no longer be considered 'young generals' now?"
The two confusing conversations between Zheng Sheng and Zhan Youming did not stump Su Yu, because he knew who the two people Zheng Sheng and Zhan Youming were talking about.
One is one of the representatives of the US team in this Olympics, the talented athlete Bryce Singleton, who was born in 1999. This 21-year-old American 200m genius has successfully refreshed his personal best in history to an astonishing 19.50 seconds this season.
Another naturalized player who also comes from the United States but actually now belongs to Liberia is DaMarcus Collins, who was born in 2000.
The 20-year-old Liberian athlete's 200m PB is currently 19.91 seconds, which is also his latest result this season. Unfortunately, he will turn 20 in September this year, so according to the regulations of the IAAF, all his results this year cannot be counted as U20 records.
If DaMarcus Collins could have run this result last season, then the 200m WU20R set by the legendary king of sprinting would have been broken.
But even if DaMarcus Collins failed to break the world U20 record, his age and results are enough to demonstrate his strength and talent.
Unfortunately, there is another contestant in the same age group as him, named Bryce Singleton.
Before DaMarcus became a naturalized athlete from Liberia, he and Bryce were well-known twin stars in the U.S. sprinting program. However, although they were called "twin stars," their relationship was not that good.
Because Damarcus and Bryce play the same sport, are in the same age group, and have similar talents and strengths, the competition for resources is very fierce.
But Bryce is still two years older than DaMarcus, and his results will come out faster.
Although Bryce also failed to break the WU20R left by the legendary sprint king, his result of 19.50 seconds in a headwind environment with a wind speed of -0.1m/s this year was enough to demonstrate his strength and ability.
These are two absolute geniuses, but unfortunately, there are perhaps too many sprinting geniuses in the United States, so after DaMarcus was sure that he could not beat Bryce, he chose to naturalize in Liberia and represented Liberia in competitions from then on.
In fact, Damarcus's procedures were only completed in mid-June this year. According to the registration information of the IAAF, he will be eligible to represent Liberia in international competitions starting from June 18, 2020.
So this also leads to a very interesting phenomenon - Damarcus' current personal best in the 200-meter sprint is 19.90 seconds, which was refreshed this season, but Liberia's 200-meter national sprint record has not yet broken the 20-second mark.
This is because Damarcus’s performance will only be considered a national record for Liberia if he represents Liberia after June 18.
Of course, it is also because Damarcus is now Liberia's 200m representative athlete that he appeared in the second group of Su Yu's semi-finals, with two "American geniuses" on the same field with him.
Although the Chinese team already knew that Damarcus would represent Liberia, Zheng Sheng never thought that Su Yu would be involved in such a "fight between dragons and tigers" in the semi-finals.
Looking at the current situation of the second group of the semi-finals, the remaining players are all eyeing the qualification for the 200m final and have strong strength to compete for the final qualification.
Take DaMarcus and Bryce, who are also from the United States. Given the fierce competition between DaMarcus and Bryce, there is no way he would let up in this game.
As for Bryce, with his current results, he is at the top of the group, but it is impossible for Bryce to run 19.50 seconds in the semi-finals.
Zheng Sheng estimated that Bryce should be able to run a time under 20 seconds, so Damarcus must not lose to him. In addition, there are four other players on the field who have the ability to break the 20-second mark, and none of them should be underestimated.
Thinking of this, Zheng Sheng’s head started to explode.
"Hey, what is this Damarcus running for?"
Su Yu listened to Zheng Sheng's pure venting complaint and said something fair. He said, "Actually, it was not wrong for Damarcus to run away."
Zheng Sheng turned his head and looked at Su Yu in shock, his face full of shock: "Xiao Yu, what are you talking about?"
After a pause, he quickly understood what Su Yu meant: "You mean, the young talents of the American team are not just Bryce and Damarcus?"
Su Yu nodded: "Coach Zheng, you may not have noticed that there is a young player named Tavarius Thomas in the United States, who was born in 2004."
Zheng Sheng was stunned for a moment. He usually mainly collected and paid attention to the adult players, and at most paid attention to the U20 players in the United States.
Born in 2004, this young player named Tavarius is one year younger than Su Yu. He is only 16 years old this year, which is considered young even in the U18 stage. He is definitely not among the players he pays attention to on a daily basis.
Thinking of this, Zheng Sheng suddenly realized that Su Yu mentioned Tavarius, it must be because Su Yu and Pei Dingshan had paid attention to this player.
Zheng Sheng subconsciously asked, "What's his PB?"
Su Yu replied: "20 seconds 30."
As soon as this number came out, Zheng Sheng's voice soared eight octaves higher: "How much?! 20 seconds 30?!"
Zheng Sheng's mind quickly flashed back to Su Yu's personal best result last season - 20.21 seconds in the 200m semi-finals of the World Championships.
The young player of the American team is only 16 years old this year, and his best result this season has reached 20.30 seconds... Doesn't that mean the gap between him and Su Yu last season is not that big? !
Su Yu nodded calmly, and Pei Dingshan also nodded to indicate that Su Yu's answer was true.
He added: "Because of Xiaoyu, I usually collect information and data about players of the same age as him. It was only this season that I discovered the young player Tavarius from the US team."
After hearing Pei Dingshan's answer, Zheng Sheng was silent for two seconds, then shook his head and sighed: "... 20.30 seconds at the age of 16."
At this point, Zheng Sheng smiled bitterly and said, "This season hasn't ended yet. I wonder if Tavarius will set any new records when the season ends."
Although Tavarius has not posed a particularly big threat to Su Yu so far, Zheng Sheng is still quite helpless facing the situation where geniuses are emerging in large numbers on the American team.
"Coach Pei, where do you think the American team got so many talented players?"
Pei Dingshan was very calm about Zheng Sheng's question.
"The advantages of race, scientific training system, and talent screening system."
Although China has been constantly breaking records for the yellow race, it has to be admitted that black athletes do have tremendous racial talent in the event of sprinting.
Of course, this does not mean that every black athlete can be a sprinting genius.
In fact, some people have done research and found that black athletes from different regions have different genetic talents. In fact, you can see some clues by just looking at the sprint records of each continent. Africa's 100-meter sprint record has not yet been able to break 9.80 seconds. After this Olympics, Asia's 100-meter sprint record has reached 9.83 seconds under the impact of Zheng Tianxi.
The North American record for the 100-meter dash is 9.58 seconds.
Therefore, some people have discussed and believed that American blacks possess the black gene that is best at sprinting.
Of course, genetic talent is not everything.
With this kind of genetic talent inherited, it is understandable that the United States has an endless stream of sprinting geniuses, but at the same time it also needs to be supported by an excellent talent screening system and a top scientific training system.
It is under the protection of these conditions that the United States has such an endless stream of talented players today.
Given China's current situation, Su Yu is almost a genius that fell from the sky, and he was extremely lucky to be picked up by Pei Dingshan and personally trained by Pei Dingshan until now.
So although Su Yu is indeed a talented player of the Chinese team, his appearance is outside the traditional Chinese competitive sports training system.
Zheng Sheng also understood this.
It can be said that Su Yu's emergence and cultivation and growth process have little to do with the original system planning of the Chinese team. What can really help the Chinese team screen out new talents is one of the things that Pei Dingshan has been busy with during the winter training last season and this season.
Only after the Chinese team's talent system is truly and completely established, can the Chinese team begin to continuously cultivate new talented players.
Even if those talented players are not as talented as Su Yu at that time, those players will be in the inheritance team of the Chinese team.
The appearance and existence of Su Yu gives the Chinese team the opportunity and time to support the connection between the front and back of the Chinese team, becoming an indispensable pillar in the process of building the talent echelon of the Chinese team.
Thinking of this, although he had never discussed this matter with Su Yu, Zheng Sheng still felt that the burden on Su Yu was too heavy.
Fortunately, Su Yu really has the character to shoulder the responsibility. Whether it was the previous 100m and 400m events, or his calmness and composure in today's 200m preliminaries, they all demonstrated Su Yu's personal ability and stability in character.
Even though Su Yu has been in the team for so many years now, Zheng Sheng can't help but sigh for a moment whenever he thinks of him - it is really lucky for the Chinese national team's sprint group to have Su Yu.
Zheng Sheng was sighing in his mind, while at the same time he was thinking about Damarcus's plan for Liberia.
"There's Bryce in front and Tavarius behind... Xiaoyu, you're quite right. This Damarcus must be glad that he ran away in time."
Of course, Damarcus probably made up his mind to plan for Liberia after seeing Tavarius rising up behind him.
From the information from Zheng Sheng and others, the national team has roughly collected information about the time when Damarcus planned to go to Liberia - the specific time seems to have been officially confirmed today, and Damarcus can represent Liberia in the competition this year, which should be agreed by the United States Track and Field Federation. Without the approval of the US team, Damarcus would not be able to enter this Olympic arena in such a short time after naturalization.
In short, the relationships involved are a mess. Zheng Sheng and his team don’t actually have a truly accurate source of information. They only know that Damarcus is indeed the Liberian player, and Su Yu and his team’s group is undoubtedly the hell group.
Su Yu doesn't mind whether it is hell or not.
But he still frowned at the question that Zhan Youming asked as soon as he got in the car.
He knew that Zhan Youming asked him this question to ask him whether he would go all out to qualify for the 200m final tonight.
The reason why Zhan Youming asked this question is probably because he felt that if he were to sprint all out to qualify for the 200-meter final tonight, it would probably be an extremely low cost-effective thing under this hellish grouping.
Su Yu knew his situation - with his current ability, 20.12 seconds was indeed not the limit. If he sprinted at full speed, there was a chance that he could break 20.10 seconds.
But the question is - can you successfully enter the men's 200m sprint final just by breaking the 20.10 second barrier?
Would it be more beneficial or harmful for him to enter the final stage of the men's 200m sprint?
Zhan Youming did not urge Su Yu to give an answer after asking this question. He just rubbed Su Yu's head after returning to their dormitory room and said to him with a smile: "Don't worry too much at your young age. Aren't you and Zheng Tianxi able to support each other? Then when you come to me, can't you trust my ability?"
"It's not easy for your group to advance to the finals, but it's not difficult for my group to advance to the finals."
He didn't say these words on the bus just now because Zheng Sheng was on the bus. No matter whether Zheng Sheng thought these words made sense or not, he couldn't let the coach hear them.
Zhan Youming put his arm around Su Yu's shoulder and said with a grin, "Brother knows what you are struggling with. Don't think too much at such a young age. I will support you this term, and it will be your turn to support me next term."
"Didn't you say that? You're only 17 years old. Do we expect you to make it to the finals in all three events?"
Su Yu was a little confused as Zhan Youming held his shoulders and said such a long string of words to him, but he actually understood what Zhan Youming meant, which was that he didn't want to put too much pressure on him, nor did he want to hurt his self-esteem.
He glanced at Zhan Youming and nodded: "I understand, Brother Youming."
Zhan Youming then touched his chin and asked, "Come on, then tell me, how are you going to run the 200 meters tonight?"
Su Yu thought about it and said, "I will try my best."
Zhan Youming: "..."
A small question mark popped up in Zhan Youming's head at first, then he remembered how "hard" Su Yu had worked in today's preliminaries, and he felt that it was almost safe.
Okay, just try your best.
With this thought in mind, Zhan Youming returned peacefully to his cardboard bed, quickly tidied himself up and lay down for a nap.
Outside the door of their room, neither Zhan Youming nor Su Yu noticed that Zheng Sheng came in just after they entered.
He also wanted to come and talk to Su Yu, but because he didn't want too many people to hear about this, he came quietly. As a result, just as he and Pei Dingshan arrived at the door of Su Yu's room, they heard Zhan Youming talking to Su Yu in a "treasonous" way.
Zheng Sheng's forehead was throbbing with veins when he heard this, and he wanted to catch that fellow Zhan Youming and beat him up immediately. But after he moved away, Pei Dingshan glanced at Zheng Sheng, and his glance revealed Zheng Sheng's thoughts -
"Coach Zheng, what Xiao Zhan meant should be what you meant, right?"
Zheng Sheng: “…”
Zheng Sheng almost jumped up and said "nonsense", but he struggled for two seconds and still couldn't say this sentence. Finally, he left the dormitory where the sprinters were, cursing silently.
***
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Su Yu and the others finished their nap and were ready to get up.
Zheng Sheng did not go to Su Yu to "communicate" at other times. Instead, shortly after Su Yu and the other person got up, he told them to remember to go to the Olympic Village cafeteria early in the evening for dinner.
Zheng Sheng glanced at the two of them and said, "We still have to compete tonight."
