After many days of fierce competition, today has entered the penultimate day of the overall schedule of this World Championships.

Although it was not a rest day, the venue was still packed with spectators. Everyone was seizing the last moment to experience this biennial track and field event.

At 10:50 am, the first group competition of the 4*100m event officially began.

The first group of contestants, consisting of eight teams from the United Kingdom, Barbados, Japan, Trinidad and Tobago, have all stepped onto the field.

At this time in the competition, athletes from various countries are using their feet to measure the position of the starting marker on the track, carefully preparing for their upcoming competitions.

In the preparation area, Su Zhe and others had already completed their warm-up activities and began to wait for the final results of the first group of preliminaries.

"France, Japan, Britain, Trinidad and Tobago... There are many strong teams in the first group. I wonder what the final results will be..." Zhao Zhixuan looked at the teams preparing on the field and began to silently calculate what the final results of this group of teams would be.

"The strongest teams should be France, Japan, Britain and Trinidad and Tobago," Wang Ming said. After joining the relay team, Wang Ming had already memorized all the opponents in the relay race. He knew all the results of these teams by heart: "Except for the above four teams, whose results are always within 38.20 seconds, the results of other teams in the first group, such as the Barbados team, are not stable, and they often run around 39 seconds."

"What we need to focus on is what kind of results the fourth place among these four teams will achieve..."

These four strong teams have almost each secured a place in the relay race finals, and it all depends on the performance of the team that comes in fourth.

Next, when the second group of the relay race officially begins, they must run a result that is at least not worse than the fourth-place team in the first group, so as to ensure that they can advance smoothly.

Su Zhe and the other two naturally understood what Wang Ming meant. In this competition, they had to at least make it to the finals, so as to live up to everyone's expectations.

Thinking of this, the atmosphere among the crowd became a little tense. After seeing his teammates were a little nervous, Su Zhe patted everyone on the shoulders and signaled everyone to relax.

"Don't worry! Hasn't our joint training been going smoothly these past few days? As long as we maintain the smooth state in training during the competition, there will be no problem!"

Su Zhe's words brought a smile to Zhao Zhixuan and others' faces.

Yes, before the competition begins, how can we continue to boost others' morale and destroy our own prestige? Their training in recent times has already produced very good results. Just like Su Zhe said, as long as they perform smoothly, their results will definitely not be a problem to enter the finals!

On the field, under the watchful eyes of 70,000 spectators, the first group of athletes in the 4*100m race have completed their preparations. On the pink track, athletes from eight teams are ready to start.

As the referee's calm preparations were broadcasted, the originally noisy arena suddenly returned to silence, and everyone began to hold their breath and pay attention to the athletes who were preparing to start the game.

"Everyone, take your positions."

"Be prepared."

"Bang!"

At the same time, the first runners on the eight lanes all responded and started running with batons in hand.

The first runner from the Japanese team was none other than Shiraishi Shota, who had an extremely quick reaction time to hearing the gunshot. As a strong new sprinter in Japan, he had been selected into the Japanese 4*100m relay team two years ago and began training as the first runner of the relay team.

He was already very proficient in the starting technique on the curve. After starting, he quickly raised his forward-leaning body and tilted the center of gravity of his entire body inward to adapt to the centrifugal force brought about by running on the curve.

His acceleration from the start was very smooth throughout the entire curve, and he had already firmly occupied the top two positions just at the starting stage.

When he was about to reach the second baton, Takeshita Hiroaki was already fully prepared.

The most commendable thing about the Japanese relay team is their baton passing technique. Around 2000, the Japanese team began to adjust the original baton passing technique to the current upward-lifting baton passing technique. This baton passing technique is not easy to master, but once mastered, compared to the downward-pushing baton passing technique, it is more suitable for athletes to complete the baton passing while moving at high speed.

Thanks to the team's mastery of this technique, Japan's relay team has broken the Asian record for the 4x100m relay many times since 2000.

Even though the individual strength of their team members cannot surpass that of Chen Zhi from the Chinese team, their relay team is

In terms of overall average strength and the tacit understanding in passing the baton, they are superior to the Chinese relay team at that time.

The handover between Shiraishi Shota and Takeshita Hiroaki went very smoothly. After taking over the baton, Takeshita immediately started to sprint forward. His movements were clean and neat without any mistakes. Although his 100-meter result was in the middle and lower levels of the relay team, in a relay race that omits the start, Takeshita's level is still commendable in the mid-run section after accelerating.

The third baton-taker for the Japanese team is Kobayashi Kimihiko. His performance in the relay race is known for his zero error in passing the baton. When praising his relay race level, the Japanese media often compares him to the perfect athlete Kobayashi-kun with zero errors.

This time, there was no problem for Kobayashi Kimihiko in passing the baton. From preparing for the preliminary run to smoothly taking over the baton from Takeshita Hiroaki in the passing area, Kobayashi Kimihiko completed everything perfectly.

At the same time, in the sixth lane next to the Japanese team, there was a problem with the handover between the second and third batons of the Trinidad and Tobago team. The third runner started too late, causing the baton to be delayed at his position. The Trinidad and Tobago team, which was originally in third place, was instantly overtaken by the team behind which was originally in fourth place.

The ranking format that had always been maintained before underwent new changes at this moment.

Regardless of the performance of the team around him, Kobayashi Kouhiko lived up to his nickname and did not make any mistakes or hesitations in this relay race.

His cornering technique was also excellent. With his outstanding performance on the corners, he shook off Adrian, the third strong runner of the French team who was chasing him from behind and who had competed with Su Zhe in the men's 100m semi-final.

The last runner of the Japanese team is Yuki Minamiyama, who is recognized as the best sprinter in Japan.

As the top sprinter in Japan, Yuki Minamiyama is one of Chen Zhi's most common opponents in Asia. His 100-meter results are very stable. Although he just ran under 10 seconds last year, his results have been maintained under 10.12 for many years and he rarely performs poorly.

He does not have a strong advantage in starting acceleration, but his ability to maintain a high speed during the run is very good. Therefore, in relay races, Minamiyama Yuki was arranged to be the fourth leg. He also often performed extremely well in the fourth leg and won many victories for the Japanese team.

In today's preliminaries, the top three teams have become relatively stable.

After taking over the baton, Yuki Minamiyama even seemed to slow down a little. The British athlete Baragon, who was in first place, did the same. When approaching the finish line, Baragon did not make any obvious movements to press the finish line, but ran across the finish line with his body straight.

Shortly after he crossed the line, Yuki Minamiyama also crossed the finish line, followed by Adrian from the French team.

The Trinidad and Tobago team was originally in the top three positions in the first and second rounds, but due to a baton pass error between the second and third runners, they were ultimately unable to regain the advantage in the subsequent rounds and could only cross the finish line in fourth place.

In the Chinese contestant seat, Zheng Wensheng seemed a little nervous.

Compared with previous events such as the 100m and 110m hurdles, Zheng Wensheng's pressure was not as great as it is now.

In this World Athletics Championships, the Athletics Administration Center did not set particularly strict performance requirements for the men's 100m sprint and 110m hurdles. However, in the 4*100m race, because of the consistent performance of the men's sprint relay team, although veteran Liu Hanjiang retired, with Wang Ming as a substitute, the relay team should have had a smooth transition period.

Taking various factors into consideration, the Athletics Management Center initially set the goal of maintaining sixth place and striving for fifth place.

But with Chen Zhi's sudden injury, the core of the relay team was eliminated, and this was the most difficult period for the relay team.

Since Su Yinsheng joined the national team and took charge of this training, he has reported related issues to the Athletics Management Center many times. The Athletics Management Center also took into account the actual situation of Chen Zhi's injury and Liu Hanjiang's retirement, so it adjusted the goal to maintain seventh place and strive for fifth place.

But even so, it was extremely difficult for the relay team at that time.

Fortunately, Su Yinsheng made up his mind to put Su Zhe in the relay team. Su Zhe was indeed competitive and cooperated smoothly with his teammates, becoming a new core member of the relay team, allowing the originally chaotic and scattered relay team to be re-united.

However... no matter how well Su Zhe performed, with less than a month of training and joint practice time, Meng Hao's adaptation from fourth baton to third baton, and Wang Ming's slightly insufficient personal strength...

And so on and so forth, all coming together.

Can such a team really withstand the pressure of the competition and the pressure of results, successfully display their usual strength, and enter the final?

In the past few days, because of the relay team's problems, Zheng Wensheng has been having a headache and unable to sleep.

At this time, watching the first group of 4*100m preliminaries that had already ended, Zheng Wensheng felt his heart was lifted high again. He looked at Su Yinsheng beside him with a wry smile, shook his head and sighed: "Alas, watching our competition live is really too stressful... Lao Su, do you think we can make it to the finals today?"

Su Yinsheng was sitting with his arms folded. He did not respond to Zheng Wensheng for the time being, but was paying attention to the score report from the commentator in the commentary booth.

Chris was looking at the score sheet delivered by the referee team and announcing the final results of the first group of preliminaries: "First place, Britain, 37.72 seconds, second place, Japan, 37.89 seconds, third place, France, 38.20 seconds, fourth place, Trinidad and Tobago, 38.40 seconds, fifth place, Barbados, 38.57 seconds..."

In the stands, Su Yinsheng frowned slightly after hearing the results, but didn't say much.

Zheng Wensheng, who was standing nearby, breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the results of the first group.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Lao Su, I remember that our recent joint training results were all under 38.50 seconds. You said, this result in Barbados... As long as we can run smoothly to fourth place in the second group, we should be able to advance to the finals, right?"

Su Yinsheng looked at the second group of participating teams that were already preparing for the game and nodded, but still said cautiously: "Let's wait and see, there are many strong players on this team... The final result will still depend on their performance."

After the first group of participating teams left the field, Su Zhe and his four companions followed the staff's instructions and came to the competition venue.

Before heading to their respective racetrack positions, the four of them high-fived each other and smiled, placing their trust in each other in this tacit action.

"come on!"

"come on!"

With just a few simple words, the four of them immediately turned around and went back to their positions to start making preparations before the game.

The Chinese team's race track was in lane 6. When Su Zhe arrived at the position, not far in front of him, in lane 7, the fourth runner of the American team and the men's 100m champion of this World Championships, Gates, was also measuring the position for the starting mark to be pasted for himself.

In lane five, Jamaica's Hill was also taking measurements.

This is truly a gathering of strong players.

Looking at his fourth runners in front and behind him, Su Zhe patted his head and temporarily put the existence of these guys behind him - in addition to the individual abilities of the runners, as long as there is enough tacit understanding, good results can be achieved in the relay race!

This time, their opponents are not these strong teams, but some other teams.

They may not be opponents of the United States, Jamaica, Brazil... these teams that have the ability to run under 38 seconds, but as long as they can beat opponents of similar level such as Turkey and Australia in this preliminaries, they will definitely be able to enter the final.

Come on, everyone!

After Su Zhe silently shouted this in his heart, he squatted down and began to wait for the game to officially begin.

At the starting corner, Zhao Zhixuan had already calmly made all preparations.

As the first runner, he shoulders the responsibility of determining the results of the initial stage.

As the first runner of the temporarily reorganized relay team, shouldering a heavy responsibility in such an important competition... Zhao Zhixuan originally thought that even though he had relatively rich competition experience, he might still feel nervous and anxious.

But now, squatting on the starting blocks, his mind was exceptionally clear and calm.

He remembered the feeling he had when his senior brother Chen Zhi played a core role in the relay team.

When did it start? Su Zhe now has the same energy as Chen Zhi, which is enough to keep him calm on the court...

Shaking his head, Zhao Zhixuan temporarily put aside the unnecessary thoughts and began to focus completely on the game that was about to begin!

Inside the Hillion Stadium, the referee's calm voice was heard again on the radio.

"Everyone, take your positions."

"Be prepared."

"Bang!"

At the moment the gun went off, the eight athletes on the track simultaneously stepped off the starting blocks with their sticks in hand, beginning the first round of competition on the track!

Zhao Zhixuan's reaction to the gunshot was very sharp, with a reaction speed of 0.132, which was not behind anyone else, ranking third among the eight teams! After he kicked out with his first kick, he quickly controlled his body to lift up, avoiding losing control of himself on the curve due to the forward tilt of his center of gravity.

He quickly controlled his body, and after standing up, he tilted his center of gravity slightly toward the inside lane, and began to run fast on the track.

On his left, the leading runner of the Jamaican team was rapidly approaching him after accelerating at the start of the turn. His speed on the turn was astonishingly fast, and he surpassed him in the blink of an eye.

This sense of urgency coming from behind made Zhao Zhixuan nervous. He shook off the chaotic thoughts in his mind and continued to rush forward with gritted teeth!

In the fourth lane, Turkey's first runner also performed extremely well at the start. After the Jamaican first runner overtook Zhao Zhixuan, he also came closely from behind and began to chase Zhao Zhixuan at the front of the track.

calm down!

Speed ​​up and run!

Zhao Zhixuan no longer paid attention to other situations around him and began to control himself to sprint on the track. After abandoning all distractions, his speed gradually increased on the track. He temporarily left the Turkish player behind him and quickly approached the stage in front where Wang Ming was!

On the track ahead, Wang Ming was taking a running stance in front of the qualifying line and keeping a close eye on the movements behind him. When he noticed that the first runner from Jamaica had arrived first, his brows slightly wrinkled, but he remained calm and continued to pay full attention to the people behind him.

Soon, Zhao Zhixuan's figure also appeared!

Wang Ming took a deep breath, and when he saw Zhao Zhixuan reach the starting mark, he stopped hesitating and started in a crouching position, entering the preliminaries!

“Brother Wang!”

When the two men quickly approached each other to within about 1 meter, Zhao Zhixuan simply shouted the signal to pass the baton.

"catch!"

The first baton pass between Zhao Zhixuan and Wang Ming was very smooth. In the Chinese players' booth, Zheng Wensheng clenched his fist and exclaimed, "Great pass!"

Su Yinsheng also nodded, and then continued to observe the situation on the field.

The second batter, Wang Ming, is the weakest among the four batters, but Wang Ming has rich experience in the game and is mentally stable, which is what Su Yinsheng is least worried about.

Even though Wang Ming is the weakest among the four, at this moment in the competition, after completing the pre-run acceleration, Wang Ming can still maintain a relatively high running speed in the fast running stage on the straight.

Although the Turkish player was approaching him, Wang Ming remained calm. He just focused on his task on the track and used his greatest strength and speed to do the best he could!

When he was about to reach the third baton, Meng Hao had already squatted on the ground, ready to wait.

Standing in the third baton, Meng Hao felt a little anxious. This was his first time standing in such a large stadium as the third baton. Even though he kept taking deep breaths, the nerves in his brain were still very tense.

There were already strong American and Brazilian teams ahead of them, and when Meng Hao saw the Jamaican athletes overtaking from behind and even the Turkish athletes approaching the third leg, his nervousness increased even more.

Don't let the chain drop!

After Meng Hao warned himself in his heart, when he confirmed that Wang Ming was about to reach the starting mark, he quickly raised his head and began to enter the preliminary run!

"Meng bro!"

"catch!"

Perhaps it is really a mysterious law that the more nervous and cautious you are, the more likely you are to make mistakes.

During the previous training phase, Wang Ming and Meng Hao had already raised their baton-passing rapport to a sufficiently high level. However, at Wang Ming's instruction, Meng Hao first squeezed his hand but failed to smoothly and steadily grasp the baton.

Wang Ming's expression changed immediately, and he quickly reached out to help Meng Hao hold the baton steadily.

When Meng Hao solved the accident with a tingling sensation on his scalp and entered the third bend, the Turkish player who was already approaching Wang Ming on the inside of his lane took advantage of the delay in their baton handover and surpassed his position and reached the front.

Don't let your mistakes affect the team's final results!

After the initial tingling sensation on his scalp, Meng Hao quickly adjusted his physical condition and began to run at full speed on the bend!

On the curved section, the strong centrifugal force was trying to pull him out of his lane, but Meng Hao controlled his body fiercely, and relying on his strong will and experience, he pushed his maximum running speed to the maximum extent on this curved track!

I can do it!

Don't even think about getting the stage advantage from me!!!

Meng Hao roared in his heart and ran down the curve with a ferocious look on his face.

He tried his best to control his body, little by little, to catch up with the third runner from Türkiye who had overtaken him!

In the Chinese player zone, Zheng Wensheng watched the second and third batons fail to pass each other, and Meng Hao was overtaken. He also watched Meng Hao run with an excellent arc and speed along the curve, catching up with the third runner from Turkey again...

Such an exciting and breathtaking scene made Zheng Wensheng forget to breathe for a moment. He could only stare at the court and shout out encouragement.

As the third and fourth batons are about to be handed over, the competition has entered its final, white-hot stage!

Su Zhe squatted on the pre-running line of the track, looking down at the starting mark behind him - Meng Hao, here we are!

The moment he saw Meng Hao reach the finish line, Su Zhe started from the pre-running line without hesitation and began to accelerate to the maximum speed.

Meng Hao also maintained the highest speed at the back, approaching Su Zhe who was accelerating.

When their speeds are almost the same, they have reached the baton passing area and have reached the optimal baton passing distance within one meter.

"Su Zhe!"

"catch!"

Meng Hao's voice was a little gnashing. He stared closely at Su Zhe's hand stretched behind his back and carefully handed the baton to Su Zhe.

As the baton was handed to him, Su Zhe grabbed it and began to enter the final fourth leg!

Su Zhe! Come on!

Meng Hao stared at Su Zhe's back in front of him, his eyes wide open with bloodshot. When he passed the baton just now, he instinctively remembered his unstable state of receiving the baton, so he passed the baton too steadily, causing Su Zhe to lose a little speed.

After patting his head hard, Meng Hao gritted his teeth and looked forward, cheering for Su Zhe again in his heart.

At the scene, the cheers of more than 70,000 spectators have already made the stadium excited.

Amid the blood-pumping cheers, Su Zhe began to rush forward, holding the baton in his hand.

At this time, in front of him, Gaiter of the American team, Hilm of the Jamaican team and the fourth runner of the Brazilian team were occupying the first, second and third positions respectively. Their advantages were difficult to be surpassed in the final fourth leg stage. Next to Suzhe, the fourth runner of the Turkish team was trying to catch up with him.

About a body length behind Turkey, Australia's fourth runner was also trying to gain a position in front.

In the previous stage, there was a mistake in the handover between the first and second batons of the Australian team, causing them to fall behind to sixth place. However, with the pursuit of the third and fourth batons, they are now qualified to compete for the top four.

The fourth runners of both teams had ambitions to surpass Su Zhe's position, but on this straight section, they were far from being Su Zhe's match.

Su Zhe's eyes were looking straight ahead, and he didn't even pay attention to the athletes chasing him from behind. He was trying to catch up with the three athletes in front of him on this track.

He wants to fight for the top three position for his team!

Can you come a little closer?

Can you come a little closer?

Su Zhe controlled his breathing and pace, trying to move closer to the front little by little, and he even did it!

The fourth runners from Türkiye and Australia in the back looked at the young man in front of them with incredible eyes.

This fourth runner from China...can he run so fast?!

The advantage of Gate and Hilm at the front is already very obvious, and a little behind them, the fourth runner of the Brazilian team has already occupied a favorable position. There is still a certain distance between him and Gate and Hilm in front, but he also believes that he has secured the third position.

He didn't expect that behind him, a young man who was accelerating appeared!

When entering the final 30-meter sprint stage, neither Gates nor Hilm sprinted at full strength, but instead sprinted with a slightly restrained attitude.

Although the fourth runner of the Brazilian team is sprinting, the one who is faster than him is Su Zhe behind him!

In the Chinese player's seat, Zheng Wensheng stared at Su Zhe's sprint with his eyes wide open.

"He... Su Zhe is chasing the Brazilian team in front?!" Zheng Wensheng's eyes revealed a bright disbelief. He watched Su Zhe shorten the distance between the two teams from 4 meters to 3 meters, 2 meters...

This is a tangible reduction in distance.

But unfortunately, the remaining distance was not enough for Su Zhe to continue chasing forward.

Finally, after the United States, Jamaica and Brazil teams crossed the finish line one after another, Su Zhe also crossed the finish line in fourth place.

After he crossed the line, the fourth runner of the Brazilian team couldn't help but look back in surprise. He didn't expect that the Chinese player was already very close to him not far behind him...

The moment he crossed the finish line, Su Zhe clenched his fists unwillingly.

After finishing the buffer section, Su Zhe wiped his face vigorously.

Still a little short...

If only he could be faster.

In the player's seat, Zheng Wensheng also felt a little regretful, but he understood that Su Zhe and the others had done their best.

The question now is, what are their scores?

Can you make it to the finals?

As everyone waited anxiously and eagerly, the commentator finally began to announce the final results of the second group of preliminaries.

"Fourth place, Chinese team, 38.35 seconds..."

After hearing the result, the members of the relay team and Zheng Wensheng from the Chinese athlete zone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Great! We got a spot in the relay race finals!
