Chapter 90 (Four in One)
On the field, with the end of this jump, Jiang Yuan looked up at his jump result, smiled slightly, waved towards the audience, and returned to the preparation area for the men's long jump competition.
Since the athletes have to wait a long time between each trial jump in the first three jump stages, the athletes put their jackets and trousers on the folding chairs in the preparation area. Every time they return from a trial jump, they will put on their jackets again to try to maintain their body temperature.
When Jiang Yuan returned to the preparation area, Rafael Perez from Cuba and Asafa Bentley from Jamaica looked at him deeply. Rafael even nodded at Jiang Yuan and said to him, "You are great."
As for Tomoya Yamakawa, who returned to the preparation area before Jiang Yuan, his condition was obviously not very good before. But perhaps after seeing the result of Jiang Yuan's just jump, Tomoya Yamakawa was stimulated. After seeing Jiang Yuan coming back, Tomoya Yamakawa seemed to gradually calm down.
For athletes of their level, especially those preparing for a major competition like the World Youth Championship, usually, after systematic and scientific pre-match preparation training, a final high-intensity training about 7-10 days before the competition, and subsequent low-intensity adjustment training, just in time for the major competition, the athletes can, with the help of their coaches and their own efforts, enter a higher level of competitive state at their current stage.
It’s just like what Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming said.
Status and strength are one thing, but being able to bring out your strength and status is another.
Just like Tomoya Yamakawa in his first trial jump, with his strength, should 7.01 meters be his normal level?
Of course not.
But his mentality affected his condition, which led to his jump of 7.01 meters, which was almost the lowest result in the whole venue.
***
With the end of the first round of trial jumps, the mentality of the players towards each other in the competition field has undergone subtle changes.
Strong athletes such as Rafael Perez, Asafa Bentley and Rahul Sharma of India, who had the highest PB score but was in poor condition in the first round of attempts, were obviously eager to fight while waiting for the second attempt, waiting to perform better in the second round of attempts.
Even for those contestants who knew they were not strong enough to win, most of them did not give up the chance to create a "miracle". In other words, what they needed to fight for first was the chance of entering the last three rounds of trials, of which there were only 8 after the first three rounds.
As for Tomoya Yamakawa, who was in a terrible state in the first round of trial jumps, he seemed to have calmed down at this time. He sat in his preparation area with a sullen face, watching the players on the field start the second round of trial jumps under the guidance of the referee.
There were 12 athletes in total in the second round of trial jumps, and the entire round took about 25 minutes. In this round of trial jumps, Rafael Perez tried a more aggressive rhythm. Although he jumped over the eight-meter line, the position where he stepped on the springboard for take-off was too close to the foul position of the take-off board - to be more precise, he did touch the foul position. Therefore, although his performance in this jump was very good, his result had to be cancelled in the end.
Asafa Bentley's performance in this trial jump was somewhat disappointing. Although he was in high spirits, his posture in the air showed obvious negligence, which prevented him from achieving very good results. He only jumped 7.62 meters.
However, Rahul Sharma, an Indian athlete who didn't look very good in his first trial jump, jumped 8.09 meters in this round of trials!
When Rahul Sharma jumped 8.09 meters, almost all the audience were stunned by his performance - after all, although his PB score of 8.18 meters was even a few points better than Jiang Yuan, Rahul Sharma's performance had been very low in yesterday's qualifying round and the first round of trial jumps in today's final.
No one expected that in this second round of trial jumps, Rahul Sharma would go against his usual behavior and achieve such an amazing result.
Before this round of trial jumps, some people even speculated that perhaps Jiang Yuan's 8.01 meters in the first jump would be enough for him to become the men's long jump champion, but it was obvious that Rahul's jump now instantly created a huge gap between Jiang Yuan and the championship throne.
After Rahul Sharma, Tomoya Yamakawa, who was in very poor condition in the first jump, unexpectedly turned around. Although he still failed to cross the 8-meter line, he refreshed his result to 7.99 meters in the second jump - in fact, only one step away from the 8-meter line.
In the audience, Zhong Wen and the others were all stunned after seeing the result of Yamakawa Tomoya's second jump - what was going on? Didn’t Tomoya Yamakawa look like a useless person when he jumped for the first time? In the second jump, he actually put on the resurrection armor on the spot? !
Wang Yangming did not seem too surprised after seeing Yamakawa Tomoya's jump result. Instead, he glanced at his cousin and the students of No. 12 Middle School and said, "Don't be so surprised. It's just a joke for people to make fun of on the Internet. But when it comes to the real competition, we can't really treat the Japanese players as the paper villains in those jokes."
"Tomoya Yamakawa is the only seeded player in the men's long jump in Japan at this stage. His strength and potential are beyond doubt. Japan's experience and level in talent selection and training in track and field events are by no means inferior to that of the Chinese team."
“Although Yamakawa Tomoya lost to Jiang Yuan in the preliminaries and even had an obvious misstep in his first trial jump just now, if you really think that Yamakawa Tomoya is such a mentally weak athlete, perhaps the next person to collapse mentally should be replaced.”
After all, Wang Yangming is a track and field fan who has watched track and field events for so many years. Although he may not be able to accurately judge the strength of an athlete, he at least knows one thing - any athlete who can reach the top position in a country in a certain event, unless that country is a tiny country, even if that athlete has weaknesses, he is definitely not a character that can be easily dealt with!
Next, Yamakawa Tomoya's performance in his third jump once again confirmed Wang Yangming's evaluation.
In the third jump, Tomoya Yamakawa took advantage of the improved condition in the second round of trials and even broke his PB in one fell swoop, jumping out of 8.13 meters!
When this result appeared, Tomoya Yamakawa pumped his fists and roared with excitement. Anyone could see that this athlete from Japan was extremely excited because he had successfully reversed the current predicament.
In a blink of an eye, Jiang Yuan, who had briefly occupied the first place in the overall ranking with a score of 8.01 meters in the first jump, has fallen to fourth place. In addition to Rahul of India and Tomoya Yamakawa of Japan, in the third round of trial jumps, Rafael of Cuba also jumped 8.06 meters and successfully came to third place.
And as for Jiang Yuan?
After Jiang Yuan jumped 8.01 meters in the first jump, he chose to skip the second jump. Now, after Yamakawa Tomoya jumped 8.13 meters, all the attention of the on-site referee team turned to Jiang Yuan's position - Jiang Yuan had just applied for a skip in the second jump, but now it was time for the third jump?
“Another no-jump application!!”
In the live broadcast room of Jigu Video, at this point, even Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming were a little surprised at Jiang Yuan's choice.
After all, if Jiang Yuan is still ranked first in the overall ranking, or is still in the top three, then his application for exemption from the jump would still be a reasonable choice. But it is obvious that in the men's long jump event of this year's World Youth Championships, the athletes seem to have put in all their efforts. The 8.01 meters that was originally considered to have a chance of winning the championship in the first jump stage now has no hope of winning a medal.
Most players would be under a lot of pressure at this stage, but Jiang Yuan chose to apply for exemption again when he had no advantage in the third round.
After Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming looked at each other, they both couldn't help but sigh: "At least in terms of mental stability, Jiang Yuan is indeed one of the most stable players on the field."
Of course, in the domestic Jigu video, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming mentioned Jiang Yuan's choice, and they all praised Jiang Yuan for his "stable mentality and big heart". At the same time, in the Japanese live broadcast, when the Japanese commentator Matsumoto Hirohei confirmed that Jiang Yuan chose not to jump again, the evaluation he gave was "retreat".
"Although Jiang from China is very talented, unfortunately, he is too young. At 15, he lacks sufficient competition experience."
"We have every reason to believe that after India's Rahul, Cuba's Rafael and Yamakawa jumped over the 8-meter line in succession, Jiang from China has developed a fear of the next competition. It is precisely because he is unwilling to face the strength of Rahul, Rafael and Yamakawa that he has repeatedly given up his trial jump opportunities and chosen to apply for exemption from the jump."
There is some truth to what Hirohei Matsumoto said. After all, this is the men's long jump final of the World Youth Championships! For most athletes, there are only six attempts. For some athletes, if they perform poorly, they may not even achieve a valid result. However, in the final of such a major event, Jiang Yuan gave up two attempts in a row, which was an incredible choice for many people.
In fact, Matsumoto Hirohei was not blindly thinking that Jiang Yuan had completely given up the competition. After all, Jiang Yuan's performance in the preliminaries the day before and the first round of trial jumps today still left a deep impression on him.
But Jiang Yuan’s choice is indeed puzzling.
For a moment, the thought flashed through Matsumoto Hirohei's mind that 'this young Chinese player might be reserving his energy', but the interval between two consecutive skips was almost forty or fifty minutes. Matsumoto Hirohei believed that such a long wait might not be a better way to recover his energy.
Moreover, after a long rest and giving up these two precious opportunities, is this young Chinese player sure that he can achieve better results and performance?
Maybe he missed two trial jump opportunities in a row, unlike other players who could find their correct condition in the trial jump?
In short, although he thought of many possibilities in his mind, Hirohei Matsumoto did not intend to convey his thoughts to the audience. After all, his commentary style has always been sharp and harsh, and too much explanation would destroy his existing image in the minds of the audience.
***
At this moment, Zheng Sheng, who was sitting in the Chinese player zone, seemed a little anxious when he saw Jiang Yuan on the field. However, Pei Dingshan next to him still looked very calm.
Zheng Sheng glanced at Pei Dingshan's expression and asked, "Coach Pei, do you know what's going on with Jiang Yuan?"
Pei Yongsheng is Pei Dingshan's uncle. The uncle and nephew often communicate and discuss the situations and plans of some players. Zheng Sheng was really anxious when he saw the situation on the field, so he couldn't help but quietly asked Pei Dingshan if he knew about Jiang Yuan's situation.
Pei Dingshan looked at the direction where Jiang Yuan was on the field. He didn't look too nervous, but said calmly: "That's what you saw."
After a pause, Pei Dingshan did not keep people waiting, but said directly: "If I am not mistaken, he is indeed taking a rest to adjust and accumulate energy."
Hearing Pei Dingshan's statement, Zheng Sheng felt choked - in fact, just as Pei Dingshan said, when he looked at Jiang Yuan just now, he also felt that this kid was adjusting his physical strength and condition, but he didn't quite believe his own judgment.
After all, just as the Japanese commentator Matsumoto Kohei guessed in his heart - choosing to give up two trial jump opportunities in the final stage of the World Youth Championship to rest, adjust and replenish physical strength, the cost of this choice is too high!
Zheng Sheng thought, by analogy, even Chen Zexin, Yu Zhou and other domestic "five tigers of long jump" might not be able to choose to skip two jumps in a row in the final stage of the World Championships.
So...how is this possible?
But Pei Dingshan's face looked very confident.
After hearing Zheng Sheng's question, "After these two exemptions, is Jiang Yuan sure that he can achieve better results?", Pei Dingshan gave a different answer.
He looked at Jiang Yuan on the field and said, "Although Jiang Yuan may not be sure that he can jump a better result after two jump exemptions, he can definitely confirm that without applying for these two jump exemptions, he will definitely not be able to jump a better result than before."
After hearing Pei Dingshan's answer, Zheng Sheng was finally stunned.
He understood what Pei Dingshan meant.
——Jiang Yuan may not be able to judge whether he can achieve better results after two consecutive exemptions, but what he can judge is that if he does not exempt from the jump, the situation will definitely be worse than it is now.
Although it seems a bit difficult to understand, Jiang Yuan simply chose the former between the choice of 'it might be better' and 'it will definitely be worse'.
After Zheng Sheng figured this out, he couldn't help but take a deep breath and exclaimed, "Before, I always heard Coach Pei brag to us that Jiang Yuan's mind and mentality were unique in their jumping group. Although I thought Jiang Yuan's mind and mentality were indeed good, I didn't think he was unique."
"But his two consecutive applications for exemption today... I am really convinced."
This is the final stage of the World Youth Championship!
As soon as I realized that I might not be able to jump to a better state next time, I chose to directly apply for exemption from jumping without anyone understanding, and I was exempted from jumping for two rounds.
Zheng Sheng really felt that from this point of view alone, the stability of his brain and mentality had completely reached or even surpassed the level of Chen Zexin, Yu Zhou and others.
Thinking of this, he took a deep breath and said, "Speaking of which, I have always felt that there is not much room for brains and tactics to play in the long jump event. After all, in the high jump, the request for exemption from jump at different heights and at different times can still defeat the opponent's mentality. But in the long jump, if the opponent has already jumped out of the best score that you cannot surpass in the previous rounds, then this kind of psychological tactic is actually ineffective. It all depends on the athlete's own hard power..."
The results. The results.
He really couldn't have imagined that Jiang Yuan could perfectly utilize his extraordinary mind and tactical level even in an event like long jump.
Tell me, how come there is such a huge gap between any two people?
As Zheng Sheng thought about this, he relaxed again while sitting in the audience - okay, although Jiang Yuan's ranking has temporarily dropped to fourth place, but with his brains and courage, Zheng Sheng felt that Jiang Yuan's next results will not be bad!
***
Domestically, at the Athletics Kingdom forum
Starting from the men's long jump final, someone opened a viewing building for the World Youth Championships men's long jump final. However, just like the rhythm of the barrage on the Internet, when Jiang Yuan jumped 8.01 meters in his first jump and temporarily ranked first, the whole building was full of joy and excitement. But when Jiang Yuan dropped to fourth place and applied for exemption from jumps twice in a row, many track and field fans in the building couldn't sit still and began to discuss what was going on?
Some track and field fans are willing to believe what Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming said in the commentary room of the Jigu video live broadcast, and think that Jiang Yuan has a stable mentality - but a stable mentality also has to have a reason, just like if you choose not to jump, there must at least be a reason that people can understand!
Precisely because these track and field fans could never come up with a reason for giving up the attempt that everyone could understand, many people began to gradually tend to agree with the reasons given by Matsumoto Kohei after someone translated Matsumoto Kohei's comments.
Soon, a fierce verbal battle broke out in the building as some people supported Tian Ruhui and his colleague's statements while others supported Matsumoto Hirohei's.
Just when these track and field fans were arguing in the building, someone on one floor suddenly posted a screenshot -
556th floor: [(Screenshot gif of Zheng Sheng sitting and relaxing) Friends, I just noticed that in the audience, in the Chinese player zone, there was a slight change in the body language of coach Zheng Sheng. Do you think this represents any underlying meaning? 】
This GIF screenshot shows Zheng Sheng's obvious confusion and anxiety when Jiang Yuan applied for the second exemption, and Zheng Sheng's obviously relaxed attitude when the camera was focused on the Chinese player zone seat again.
At this time, except for the men's long jump final, there were no Chinese players on the field, so the only one who could cause Zheng Sheng's emotional state to change was Jiang Yuan.
562F: [I was a little skeptical at first, but I checked my own screen recording file and found that there were indeed such changes, so... it is reasonable to suspect that Coach Zheng Sheng and the others have understood what Jiang Yuan is doing and are reassured by Jiang Yuan's choice? 】
The two groups of track and field fans who were arguing fiercely in the building now looked at the changes in Zheng Sheng's body posture in the gif. Even the track and field fans who believed that they should not over-interpret the body language of the coaches watching the game found it difficult to refute the correctness of this interpretation.
only……
What was the reason why Zheng Sheng began to relax?
The track and field fans in the track and field forum were really anxious at the moment, wanting to see the fourth round of trial jumps as soon as possible. What choice would Jiang Yuan make, and what was the reason that caused Zheng Sheng to have such a huge emotional change.
***
On the court, Jiang Yuan had no idea how many viewers or commentators on the Internet and in front of the TV had interpreted his choice.
He doesn't care about any of that.
He always believed that individual choices are lonely and minority.
He did not often expect others to understand his choices.
Just like he always said, although Xiaoyu always looks cold and distant, in fact, he is the one with the colder personality between the two.
He doesn't care how his choices and decisions are interpreted, analyzed or evaluated by others. He just makes the choices he is willing to make or the choices he thinks are more valuable.
Just like the two exemption applications in front of him, he indeed realized that if he continued to try the jump, he would most likely not be able to jump out of a better state of results, so he decisively gave up continuing to try the jump, and instead chose to rest in the preparation area, warm up, adjust his condition, and watch the performance of his opponents.
He knew that his choice would definitely cause controversy, but it didn't matter.
In the on-site preparation area, Bu Cunzhou looked at him a little nervously because of his continuous jump exemption applications, but after he signaled that he was fine, although Bu Cunzhou still looked very worried, he did not advise him to be careful, but just said to him to cheer up.
At this moment, after the first three rounds of trial jumps, the contestants on the field will be eliminated. The contestants ranked in the bottom four will be eliminated directly and lose the opportunity to make the next three attempts.
Although Bu Cunzhou's strength was in the lower middle among all the contestants, fortunately he performed well in the first three jumps. Therefore, after the first three jumps, with a score of 7.66 meters, he entered the competition for the last three jumps as the last one.
"First of all, congratulations to Bu Cunzhou and Jiang Yuan. Both athletes gave very good performances in this men's long jump final. Both advanced to the last three jumps of the men's long jump final!"
Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming from Jigu Video first praised the performances of Jiang Yuan and Bu Cunzhou, and then introduced the other six remaining players on the field.
They are the currently ranked first Japanese athlete Tomoya Yamakawa (current best result is 8.13 meters), the second Indian athlete Rahul (current best result is 8.09 meters), the third Cuban athlete Rafael (current best result is 8.06 meters), the fourth Chinese athlete Jiang Yuan (8.01 meters), and the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth Jamaican athlete Asafa Bentley, Ukrainian athlete Ihor Sidorov, American athlete Maxwell Jefferson, and the last Chinese athlete Bu Cunzhou.
Although Jiang Yuan was temporarily squeezed from the first place in the overall ranking to the fourth place at the current stage, the fact that among the eight athletes on the field, only the Chinese team had two athletes on the field at the same time still made the track and field fans who were watching the game at the moment happy for a while.
After all, in many events in track and field, when it comes to the finals, among the remaining athletes, only teams like the United States and Jamaica can have two athletes present at the same time. This time, the team with the advantage of multiple athletes is the Chinese team - even though everyone knows that Bu Cunzhou's strength is just the last one, it does not hinder their happiness at the moment.
By the time of the fourth round of trial jumps for the men's long jump, the first athlete to go on stage was Bu Cunzhou.
This seemingly honest player, although currently at the bottom of the list among all the players, knows his own level and is willing to fight for better results. At the same time, he is also a very hardworking player in training, willing to follow the coach's guidance and work hard to adjust himself.
Although he cannot use this adjustment perfectly in every competition, coincidentally, in today's round of trial jumps, Bu Cunzhou successfully performed his best!
When he successfully jumped out of 7.85 meters, Bu Cunzhou jumped up excitedly - this was his personal best result so far! !
He set a new personal best in the final stage of the World Youth Championship! !
Although the result of 7.85 meters was completely insignificant in today's competition, Bu Cunzhou was still extremely excited. Especially after hearing the spectators from China cheering for him loudly, "Bu Cunzhou is awesome!", he was so excited that he wanted to run a few more laps around the field!
In the live commentary room of Jigu Video, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming also smiled approvingly after seeing Bu Cunzhou's performance.
"Bu Cunzhou is a very down-to-earth athlete. Although his personal talent may not seem amazing, his stability, diligence and hard work will surely help him become an outstanding male long jumper in the future."
For veteran commentators like Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming, they certainly like talented players, but true geniuses are rare after all. What they usually see more are players like Bu Cunzhou, who have certain talents and grow up step by step with their own efforts and determination.
Compared to some players who have some talent but have a nonchalant attitude towards the competition, those who can actually accumulate their strength and achieve greater success are often players like Bu Cunzhou.
With this jump by Bu Cunzhou, he finally raised his personal ranking from eighth to sixth place - and this result on the field also made Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming quite emotional.
"Teacher Zhou, if I remember correctly, at the last World Youth Championships, a score of 7.85 meters should have been enough to get fourth place, right?"
"Yes." Zhou Jiming has a good memory, or rather, both of them have strong professional qualities and good memories. They both remember that at the 2016 World Youth Championships in Bydgoszcz, Poland, in the men's long jump event, the top three players' scores were 8.00 meters, 7.91 meters and 7.88 meters respectively.
The fourth-ranked player at the time did not even reach 7.85 meters, but 7.81 meters.
After introducing the situation of the previous World Youth Championships, the two expressed their greatest emotion that in just two years, a large number of talented athletes have emerged from all over the world in the long jump event - as evidenced by the fact that in the men's long jump final, whose final ranking has not yet been determined, the top four athletes have all crossed the 8-meter line.
In fact, they were not the only ones who were feeling emotional. When Zhou Jiming and Tian Ruhui announced the final results of the top four men's long jump competitors in the previous session, the comments on the public screen of Jigu's live broadcast room exploded first -
[Fuck, the last champion’s score was only 8 meters? ! 】
[No wonder. I was just wondering, that Japanese athlete Yamakawa and the Indian athlete, all of them have achieved results of over 8 meters, as has the Cuban athlete. There are so many athletes with results of over 8 meters or even close to 8.10 meters, how come at the end of the first round of trial jumps, the two commentators were saying that Jiang Yuan had a chance to win the championship. 】
[Yeah... To be honest, I was wondering about this just now. I thought 8.01 meters was a bit too big a difference... But I didn't expect that this was only a bit too big a difference for this session. It turned out that this was a good enough result to win the championship in the last session. 】
[Speaking of which, you guys think... Jiang Yuan applied for exemption from the next two rounds. Was it because of this that he lost his temper? For example, I thought about it... I successfully jumped out of a result in the first jump that would have won me the championship last season, so I can basically lie down in this final! As a result, someone soon emerged with better results than him, and then two, three...】
It's no wonder that there are quite a few supporters of the argument that "Jiang Yuan's mentality has collapsed". Just look at the number of likes on that barrage and you will know that many people silently clicked the like button after seeing it.
Although Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming have always been talking about Jiang Yuan's good mentality and big heart, some of the onlookers and track and field fans saw Matsumoto Hirohei's comments and believed them silently.
So, I don’t know if too many people thought this comment made sense, so someone took a screenshot of it and posted it on Weibo, with the topic #World Youth Championship Jiang Yuan’s mentality collapsed#.
As a result, for some unknown reason, the topic #Jiang Yuan's mentality collapsed in the World Youth Championship#, along with another topic #Yamakawa Tomoya crushed Jiang Yuan with 8.13 meters#, was directly put on the hot search list on Weibo.
The onlookers in the Jigu Video live broadcast room were shocked to see that someone was diverted from Weibo. Some people even put forward a huge conspiracy theory - could this topic be a hot search bought by the people from Jigu Video? Just to attract spectators to watch the game?
This speculation scared the staff of Jigu Video so much that they wanted to prove their innocence on the spot. Fortunately, someone quickly noticed something unusual about the account that posted the screenshot of the message - this account was full of content praising the Japanese in a roundabout way, mixed with some domestic gossip topics, disguised as a seemingly ordinary netizen, but the real netizens still smelled the problem.
Soon, under the two hot search topics #Jiang Yuan's mentality collapsed at the World Youth Championship# and #Yamakawa Tomoya crushed Jiang Yuan with 8.13 meters#, a group of netizens started to post the topic - #Japan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs' budget exploded#.
There is no way. In today's era of public opinion warfare, even between countries, some petty tricks are often used.
This wave is probably because Su Yu and Jiang Yuan had previously caused Japanese netizens to break down their defenses. Maybe they felt that their image as a track and field powerhouse was damaged, so after seeing this topic, they directly bought a hot search.
After seeing the topic about the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Jigu Video, which had almost been wronged before, immediately went all out and also "friendly" sent the other party to the hot search. And not just an ordinary hot search position, but directly sent it to the top three.
Don’t ask, the answer is that you are rich and willful.
After all, the hot search that Xiao Rizi just made almost left them speechless. If track and field fans and the general public really believed that they were the kind of platform that ignored the mentality of the athletes and bought hot searches for traffic to discredit the athletes, then their platform would be finished!
After all, they have been relying on word of mouth to invest in the niche field of sports live broadcasting to this extent. Now that they have finally reached the level of being able to have official cooperation with sports channels and many national teams, their early investment has finally begun to move towards a positive profit stage...
Although the general public probably couldn't feel it, but in less than half an hour, the PR manager of their platform almost called the top PR team for help. In the end, they only spent a little money to put the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' hot search in the top three and solved a huge crisis. It's really good news, thank God.
***
Having said that, at this moment, these trending searches are still on the hot search list on major platforms such as Weibo and Tik Tok. In order to allow the spectators to eat melons correctly at the first time, the people at Jigu Video asked their people to edit the text, picture and video versions of the causes and consequences at the speed of light, and directly found KOL accounts in various hot search positions and spread them around crazily.
While clearing himself, he also attracted a large number of new spectators to watch the men's long jump final which has not yet ended.
After the competition entered the last three jumps, the overall time taken for the last three jumps decreased rapidly due to the decrease in the number of players.
When the first wave of hot searches came in, what the audience saw was the fourth attempt of Rahul from India. But Rahul may have exhausted his strength in the second attempt, and then he failed to achieve any good results in the third attempt and now the fourth attempt.
After Rahul's trial jump, Jamaican athlete Asafa Bentley gave a good performance, improving his score from 7.88 meters in the first round of trials to 7.99 meters in this round of trials.
It was just that the performances of the contestants in this final were too fierce, and even with a score of 7.99 meters, he could only stay in fifth place.
After Asafa left the stage, the next player to appear was the Cuban player Rafael.
Previously, Rafael had ranked third in this field with 8.06 meters in the third trial jump, but Rafael was obviously unwilling to stay in the third place. In the fourth round of trial jumps, he once again started his run-up in a very extreme way, but this round, although he did not commit a foul, his result was not able to exceed 8.06 meters.
With the end of Rafael's fourth round of trial jumps, the only players who had not yet performed the fourth round of trial jumps were Japanese player Tomoya Yamakawa and Chinese team's Jiang Yuan.
This time, before going on stage, Yamakawa Tomoya looked at Jiang Yuan from a distance again - it was obvious that this was another provocation.
After seeing Yamakawa Tomoya's actions, Jiang Yuan nodded with a smile, ended his warm-up, took off his jacket and sports pants, and shook his head in place.
Zhong Wen and others in the audience became excited when they saw Jiang Yuan finally take off his coat.
"Ahhh! Genko is finally going to play!"
"Student master, student master, go, go, go!"
"Down with that little-time player!!"
Although the students from No. 12 Middle School were watching the game on site, they were keeping their eyes and ears open. When Jiang Yuan and Bu Cunzhou were not on the field, some of them were using their mobile phones to check the news on Weibo and the live broadcast room. After seeing that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs had actually bought such an outrageous hot search, they immediately became furious.
Now they want Jiang Yuan to quickly trample that little bastard under his feet so that he can teach them a severe lesson!
only……
After all, they had made up for their lack of track and field knowledge after Su Yu and Jiang Yuan became professional athletes, so they certainly knew how difficult their ideas were.
So far, Jiang Yuan's best long jump result is only 8.16 meters, which was achieved under the stimulation of the five senior generals in the Asian Games trials.
In today's match, although the opponents are not weak, the confrontation between them is definitely more severe than in the previous Asian Games trials. The friendly and mutually stimulating atmosphere is difficult to compare with that time.
In this situation, especially since their top student had just applied for exemption from two rounds of application, it was difficult for them to judge whether Jiang Yuan had a chance to slap the faces of the contestants who lived a simple life.
Therefore, Zhong Wen and his group of fans, who had been extremely active ever since they arrived in Tampere to watch the game, were now so nervous that they hardly dared to speak.
In such a tense atmosphere, Japan's Tomoya Yamakawa completed his fourth attempt first.
It can be seen that after the result of 8.13 meters came out, Tomoya Yamakawa's whole state was relaxed a lot. Although he still made a fourth attempt, it was obviously an attempt in a more relaxed state. The final result was only 7.65 meters, but it did not affect Tomoya Yamakawa's mood.
After Tomoya Yamakawa left the stage, Jiang Yuan, who had not taken part in two trial jumps, finally came to the front of the run-up. At this time, not only Chinese track and field fans, but also many spectators at the scene had become curious about this young player from the Chinese team.
"Jiang Yuan is here!"
In the live broadcast room of Jigu Video, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming's eyes lit up at this time. Although they still felt that Jiang Yuan should have known what was going on when he made two consecutive requests for exemption from jumps, knowing what was going on was one thing, and the actual psychological pressure on the players in this situation was another.
The two were still quite worried about Jiang Yuan's performance.
But fortunately, seeing Jiang Yuan's condition when he appeared on the stage, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming both felt that "Jiang Yuan is in good condition."
The two looked at each other and caught the meaning in each other's eyes.
After a brief eye contact, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming turned the topic to Jiang Yuan on the field: "It can be seen that Jiang Yuan is full of anticipation for the next jump. Compared with the first jump, Jiang Yuan now seems to have an extra aggressiveness and is actively looking forward to the next jump."
Just as they said, Jiang Yuan's mouth curled up slightly and his eyes were slightly bent in front of the starting line, with an almost joyful anticipation, as if after a long wait, he could finally gather his strength for a strike.
Perhaps Jiang Yuan's performance was also felt by the players on the scene, so in the preparation area not far away, people like Rahul, Rafael, Yamakawa Tomoya and others stood up from their positions and began to look at Jiang Yuan who was running ahead from a distance.
When the referee on the scene began to signal Jiang Yuan that he could jump, Jiang Yuan slowly smiled, restrained his smile, and then closed his eyes, as if he was recalling something.
When the timer on the scene gradually approached the last 15 seconds, the time limiter in charge of the run-up was about to start waving the flag to give a reminder. At this moment, Jiang Yuan opened his eyes with a faint smile, and then, under the watchful eyes of everyone, he took his first step in the run-up!
The audience at the scene could only see the relatively slow running rhythm at the beginning, and then the gradually phantom-like speed. The whole process of Jiang Yuan's speed starting from the running start to the acceleration was extremely fast. And as his speed became faster and faster, his running steps were still as precise as if they were carved with a ruler.
A run-up that is extremely fast yet extremely precise!
When the players at the scene saw Jiang Yuan's running start, many of them immediately became serious. No matter how serious their faces were, they could only watch Jiang Yuan quickly reach the taking-off board with his superb running rhythm and speed!
While pushing off the ground continuously, Jiang Yuan quickly approached the take-off board with precise steps and fast displacement over a long distance - perhaps at this moment, countless people were expecting him to make a mistake in the jump, but in fact, he still stepped onto the take-off board steadily and accurately with extremely precise control and took off accurately!
Before this step, everyone could see that the young man on the field did not significantly reduce his speed even before taking off. He just lowered his body's center of mass in the penultimate step to prepare for the next and final jump!
Push off - under the full force of the take-off foot, the body begins to fly into the air!
Next, extend your arms and legs to control your body's tendency to roll forward, and prepare to thrust your hips forward before your body reaches the highest point.
In the end, everyone only saw the young Chinese player who was said to have a "broken mentality" draw an extremely long arc in the air, and then landed in the sand pit with the most perfect posture. Then, after landing, he quickly stood up and walked to the front of the sand pit.
“Great job!!!”
"Jiang Yuan!! What a beautiful jump!!!"
Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming only breathed a sigh of relief after Jiang Yuan successfully landed. Although they always believed in Jiang Yuan's mental stability, until recently, they had not thought about why Jiang Yuan had to apply for exemption from jump twice in a row.
But after hearing the director's brief explanation of the previous hot searches on Weibo through their headphones, they both suddenly understood Jiang Yuan's thoughts.
——He was waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to completely surpass those players.
Jiang Yuan obviously made a prediction about his physical fitness and condition. He thought that he could not perform better in the previous rounds of trial jumps, so he chose to wait.
A player with an incredibly rational mind and a stable mentality!
Even though they had seen Jiang Yuan's ability in this area many times in his high jump competitions, after watching Jiang Yuan's long jump performances in the last few rounds, they were once again shocked by Jiang Yuan's performance.
And after the shock, there is pure joy!
Because... Jiang Yuan did it!
If they were not mistaken, Jiang Yuan's jump just now was definitely more than 8.10 meters, which means that Jiang Yuan has a chance to catch up with Japan's Yamakawa Tomoya...
So the only question now is whether Jiang Yuan’s results are in compliance with the regulations? !
With a feeling of almost suffocating tension, everyone began to wait for the replay of Jiang Yuan's trial jump to appear on the screen. Finally, when they saw Jiang Yuan get on the board accurately again without any fouls, whether it was Tian Ruhui, Zhou Jiming or all the audience in front of the live broadcast, they all breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.
Now, all they need to wait for is Jiang Yuan’s final result!
How much will it be? ?
While waiting, Tian Ruhui also praised Jiang Yuan's stable running distance: "It is a very remarkable stability. It is precisely because of this absolute control of his running distance that Jiang Yuan can get on the board most accurately!"
"So far, Jiang Yuan's failure rate in boarding is still 0 - an amazing number."
After praising Jiang Yuan's control ability, before Tian Ruhui and the others could say anything, they saw the electronic screen flashing and Jiang Yuan's results came out -
Athlete number 12, Jiang Yuan (Chinese team), first attempt jump 8.01 meters (wind speed 0.1m/s), second attempt jump result - no jump required, third attempt jump result - no jump required, fourth attempt jump result 8.19 meters (wind speed 0.6m/s) PB.
——Player’s current ranking: First.
When Jiang Yuan, who was still at the scene, saw the final result, he finally smiled again and waved towards the audience seats.
In the audience, the Chinese team staff and players in the Chinese player area were stunned for a moment, then burst into wild screams again, while Zhong Wen and others in the audience also started jumping around wildly on the spot.
And if there is anyone who is unhappy at this moment...
Maybe it was because they thought they had the victory but ended up meeting the "assassin on the field" of Jiang Yuan?
