Chapter 159: It all depends on peers (Water)(2/2)
Although there is no shortage of rugby players with excellent short and jump performance in the United States, the fact that a player like him with not very outstanding personal strength can qualify for the Olympics only shows that there is no one in the American men's long jump event this year.
But to be on the safe side, Wei En still cheered up and completed his sixth jump. When he stood on the track again, there was a burst of boos from the audience.
This burst of boos was obviously due to the audience being dissatisfied with his "perfunctory" performance, but this burst of boos was quickly drowned out by cheers and applause.
What happened to perfunctory?
If people can perfunctory, it's because of their superior strength. In competitive sports, strength is king. What's wrong with being crazy?
People are not frivolous and waste their youth!
"Come on Wei En, let us see your strength!"
"Hurry up, this qualifying competition is going to make me fall asleep, let's have some excitement!"
"How about jumping 8.4 meters with all your strength?"
"eight point four!"
"eight point four!"
"eight point four!"
I don’t know who took the lead, but many spectators on this side of the long jump venue started shouting, clamoring for Wei En to jump 8.4 meters.
The camera focused on Wayne and took a close-up of him. Wayne smiled, spread his hands, and stood on the track.
Without his command, the audience had already taken the initiative to applaud and beat him:
"Snapped--!"
"Snapped--!"
"Snapped--!"
How many people participated? One thousand? Ten thousand?
Wei En is not sure, but at this time, he has indeed become the focus of the audience. Under this situation, if he does not get a satisfactory result, it will be a bit disappointing.
OK, come on then!
Amidst the waves of applause, Wei En began to run, his legs swung into two afterimages with the faster and faster beat, and the fiery red figure flew quickly on the runway that was not long and not short.
"Snapped!"
The precise pedaling is still a push-up movement with a strong feeling of staying in the air. The fiery red figure draws a beautiful arc above the sand pit, pedaling → taking off → lifting into the air → falling → landing, all in one go!
After seeing Wei En's landing point, the audience cheered instantly. There is a distance scale board next to the sand pit, with a scale of every 20 centimeters. Although there is no most accurate data, Wei En's jump
It’s obvious – it jumped 8.4 meters!
The referee at the starting point raised the white flag - the result is valid!
Wei En stood up and shook off the sand on his body, then waved to the audience and bowed. Not long after, the host at the scene announced:
"Men's long jump qualifying competition, No. 1505, Chinese player Wei En - 8.42 meters!"
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and bursts of warm cheers erupted again in the London Bowl, making it seem like it was a final.
In fact, a score of 8.42 meters is not really a good result in the history of men's long jump, but it cannot stand up to the comparison of his peers.
A bunch of 7.8, 7.9, and 8.0x scores are really boring and make people sleepy.
Look at Wei En, this is called the long jump! This is called the Olympics!
Watch well and learn well!
