"The game begins! Let's see how Liu Xiang performs with his seven-step hurdles?"

"Liu Xiang's performance in the first two columns was still stable, but Oliver's rhythm was a bit messy."

"Look at the run, Oliver hit three hurdles in a row!"

"Liu Xiang speed up! Liu Xiang——!"

"Look at the final sprint stage - the last hurdle, Liu Xiang sprints!"

"Liu Xiang won, 13 seconds 09!"

"In this first competition where the seven-step hurdle technique was officially adopted, Liu Xiang ran into 13.10 seconds with a very good performance, fulfilling his promise..."

Wain did not leave the stadium after the game. He was interviewed by nbhk and other TV media in the interview area, and then returned to the lounge to take a shower before returning to the stadium.

Because of his experience and performance today, CCTV informed him in advance and asked him to wait until Liu Xiang's game was over before conducting an interview together.

So Wei En has waited until now, the time is already close to 21 o'clock.

The data of this men's 110-meter hurdles match has been analyzed by the system. The final result was 13.07 seconds instead of 13.09 seconds. The wind speed was 0.2m/s.

To be honest, Liu Xiang's performance today was not perfect. After all, it was his first time to participate in an official competition using the seven-step climbing technique, so when he attacked the first hurdle, he was not as comfortable as when he was at his peak.

But it is very necessary for Liu Xiang to change to seven steps to the hurdles, because for him, who is nearly 190 cm tall, the eight steps to the hurdles are always a bit tight.

When Liu Xiang was still at his peak, his hurdle skills were already unparalleled in the world. If he wanted to continue to improve his performance, there were only two major directions: attack hurdle speed and flat running ability.

However, Liu Xiang is not able to try these two directions because he has too many hidden dangers of injuries. Whether he wants to improve his attack speed or flat running ability, the amount of training can easily overwhelm this early body.

Just a body covered in wounds.

Therefore, Liu Xiang changed the eight-step hurdle to a seven-step hurdle, not really to seek a breakthrough, but to use this small improvement point that he could be sure of to improve the toughness of his body under the premise that his body has many potential injuries.

Strength is stable at a pan-peak level.

After some celebrations, Liu Xiang came to the interview area, with guns and cannons around him still aimed at him.

"Brother Xiang, you are so popular!" Wei En smiled and stepped forward to greet Liu Xiang, and gave Liu Xiang a gentle hug.

"Don't beat me!" Liu Xiang joked and hit Wei En on the chest, then put his arm around his shoulders and said: "When you set a new Asian record forty minutes ago, the whole audience was shouting for you.

Name, look how can I get such treatment if I win the championship?"

In the match just now, he witnessed Wei En breaking the Asian record on the TV in the waiting area, especially the scene of the last 20 meters to beat Asafa Powell, which made Liu Xiang, who once held the world record, excited.

.

He used to be an Olympic champion, a world record holder, and a World Championship champion. But even so, there were inevitably some harsh voices in the dark corners:

"The 110-meter hurdles pay more attention to technique. Liu Xiang's victory doesn't mean anything. Yellow people just can't run fast and are far behind black people..."

Liu Xiang was very angry at that time. If he hadn't known that he was not qualified for 100-meter training, he would have changed his profession to run 100-meter!

Wai En broke an Asian record at the Asian Games last year, causing quite a stir in Asia, but naysayers still exist.

Words like "The results are just blown by the strong wind" and "To achieve such results at such a young age must be due to medication" are endless.

Now it's good, the time is 9.95 seconds, the wind speed is only 0.3m/s, the hard power is well within 10 seconds.

What else can Xiao Heizi say?

"Damn, this is just a small fuss. Compared with Brother Xiang, you are far behind~" Wei En said very modestly.

Liu Xiang is an athlete he likes and respects very much. He supported Chinese track and field in the dark ages and inspired countless people.

Wei En was only 12 years old in 2004, but when he saw Liu Xiang win the championship in the Athens Olympics, he had the idea of ​​"acting like a real man".

It can be said that it was because of Liu Xiang that Wei En embarked on the path of track and field.

"Come on, come on, here~"

Just when the emotions between Wei En and Liu Xiang were brewing and they were about to have a profound exchange, a voice sounded that they hated so much but had to accept.

Wei En and Liu Xiang looked at each other and smiled, but the smile was obviously bitter.

The two of them turned their heads and found that Tong Rina was waving to them, like a devil's summons.

Wei En and Liu Xiang came to the CCTV interview area side by side. Tong Rina hesitated for a while and chose to side with Liu Xiang.

Wei En is quite afraid of Tong Rina, but in comparison, Tong Rina may be even more afraid of Wei En.

"Let's first ask Liu Xiang, who just finished the competition. He defeated his strong rival David Oliver tonight and set the world's best result in the men's 110-meter hurdles this year. How does it feel?"

Liu Xiang nodded, seeming very satisfied that Tong Rina didn't ask some strange questions as soon as she came up.

"Well, I am still very satisfied with today's results. And today's start was quite smooth, but there are still a few problems in the first three columns. I am still a little anxious and the range of motion is not fully opened."

"Because it is the first outdoor competition this year, the result of 13.07 seconds feels very good to me."

Tong Rina seemed to be very satisfied with Liu Xiang's answer. After Liu Xiang finished answering, she quickly asked Wei En:

"Wei En's performance today is also very amazing. This is the second time you have set a new Asian record and defeated Asafa Powell. Congratulations!"

"Thank you." Wei En sighed in his heart. It seems that Aunt Tong Rina has finally "returned her evil ways" and he no longer has to answer those weird questions...?

"But I noticed a detail, that is, your starting reaction time was 0.162 seconds, which was the slowest except for Neon player Gao Gaoping Shenshi. What did you think at the time?"

Tong Rina said and handed the microphone to Wei En's mouth, then suddenly took it back and added: "Because the Norwegian player had a false start before, is the 0.162 second starting reaction just for insurance?"

Next to him, Liu Xiang was trying hard not to laugh, while Tong Rina, who asked such an outrageous question, had a look of "expectation" on her face. Wei En helplessly took a breath of air and organized the words in his mind.

"Aunt Tong Rina, you have to think differently." Wei En said earnestly, "My starting reaction was second to last, but when I returned to the lounge, I briefly calculated the game data and found that my first 10 meters were pure running.

His time is second only to Asafa Powell.”

"So, the reason why I reacted slowly at the start was to allow my body to start accelerating more fully. It was not because I was affected by Sai Yinde's false start, so I adopted a safer starting tactic."

Wei En was talking nonsense in a serious manner, but thanks to Tong Rina being a basket case, although she had followed up on so many interviews at track and field events over the years, she couldn't be said to have a little knowledge of track and field knowledge, it could only be said that she didn't understand shit.

If she wanted to counterattack Wei En, all she needed to do was list Wei En's starting reaction times in several 100-meter races last year, and that would be it.

It's a pity that she can't do it. She doesn't have the ability, you know?

As expected, Tong Rina immediately became honest after being scolded by Wei En. She forced a smile and continued to ask: "I ran 9.95 seconds today and broke my own Asian record. Do you have any comments on your performance?"

Liu Xiang gave Wei En a thumbs up without showing any trace of the camera. He has been tortured by Tong Rina many times over the years. Whenever he encounters those mindless questions, the most he can do is just say "Bye" and just ignore them.

Lose.

Feeling personally that Tong Rina was "repulsed", Liu Xiang felt secretly happy, wondering if he could give Tong Rina a whole life in the future?

Wayne replied:

"You still need to work harder. With a time of 9.95 seconds, it should be no problem to enter the World Championship finals, but it is still difficult to get a medal in the World Championships."

As soon as these words came out, not only Tong Rina, but also Liu Xiang was a little confused.

Brother, your thinking is really outrageous. When others criticize you in an interview, why don't you praise yourself first and then talk about what you didn't do well?

Yes, you did modestly say that you should "work harder", but "it is still difficult to get a card at the World Championships", it sounds like...

Tong Rina continued to smile and said: "Haha, it seems that athlete Wei En is still very confident in his own strength. Want to become the first Asian athlete to enter the men's 100-meter final of the World Championships?"

Wei En smiled, and then suddenly said seriously: "Being the first Asian athlete to enter the men's 100-meter final of the World Championships sounds a bit unrealistic, but I think it's not just me, my senior brother Lao Yi, and then Su Bingtian

Ah, Zhang Peimeng... Including many seniors, they have thought about it."

"I found that domestic 100-meter athletes, coaches, and even spectators don't dare to think about it. Even though I have run within 10 seconds twice, when I think of Bolt's 9.58 seconds, I think of Thailand.

Sen Gaiyin’s 9 seconds 71, it feels like this is something more difficult than climbing to the sky.”

"But that's a result of competing for gold and silver. If you only consider entering the World Championship finals, let alone me, the other three main players of the relay team: Lao Yi, Zhang Peimeng, and Su Bingtian."

"If they can stabilize their hard power within 10 seconds, they will have no problem reaching the semifinals."

"If they can reach the semi-finals and perform within 10.05 seconds, they will have a chance to qualify for the World Championships finals."

Wei En's words are not speculation. If it were the Berlin World Championships in 2009 or the Mexico World Championships in 2013, the hard power of 10.05 seconds would definitely not be enough to enter the finals, but it was really possible in 2011.

The first is Tyson Guyon. He has always suffered from groin injuries and even ran under 9.80 seconds five times between 2009 and 2010. However, this year his injuries have reached the point where he has to undergo systematic treatment.

So there is no Tyson Gayoon in Daegu.

Then there is Justin Gatlin. As soon as his suspension date passed in August last year, he immediately participated in the competition, but his best time throughout the year was only 10.09 seconds.

Cholesterol-like and other stimulant ingredients can help him prolong his career, but they cannot help him immediately return to high-level status after four years away from the professional arena. This year, Justin Gatlin's hard power will not exceed 10.05 seconds.

Then there is Asafa Powell. Even though he can still run 9.95 seconds with little effort now, if Wei En remembers correctly, he seemed to have a shot of running 9.80 seconds in the 2011 season.

But at the 2010 Diamond League Paris Station, Asafa Powell strained his groin, which affected his back and tendons. As a result, he needed frequent treatment and was unable to devote himself to training.

Before coming to participate in this year's Diamond League Magic City, he strained his thigh while running 200 meters at the Kingston International Invitational on May 7, which is why he lost to Wayne.

Among the five tigers in the 100-meter race, two tigers have stopped to recover from injuries, and one tiger has not yet recovered his skills. This is actually a very rare opportunity for many athletes.

Especially for Zhang Peimeng and Lao Yi, two players who have evolved in advance due to the emergence of Wei En and have their peak ceiling increased, the Daegu World Championships is likely to be their only chance in life.

As for Su Bingtian...

"Just like when Liu Xiang gave me hope and let me embark on the path of track and field. I hope to continue to improve myself, like brother Liu Xiang, to become a role model for Chinese athletes in the 100-meter event and prove it to them with facts.

:The limits of the Chinese people are far beyond this!"
