Chapter 86 Junior Brother, see you in the finals!

That night, Wayne found a hotel and finally sat at the same table to eat with his mother after a year and a month.

It was said that he was eating, but in fact, Wei En was holding the unpalatable healthy meal in front of him, drinking mineral water, and watching his mother eat the hotel's exquisite food in small bites.

There is no way, he is currently competing for the Asian Games. The food in the hotel looks exquisite and delicious, but no one can tell whether there are any ingredients added to it that may cause him to be suspected of being banned in drug tests.

In special times, you must keep your mouth shut, otherwise if someone accidentally tests positive for drugs, even if he does not mean it, the wave of public opinion will completely drown him.

Although the healthy meal tasted like chewing wax in his mouth, it was rare for mother and son to see each other and have a meal. Wei En only felt that the chicken breast without dipping sauce had a sweet taste when chewing it.

On the morning of November 23, the members of the relay team did relaxation exercises together as usual. In addition, the group list for the men's 100-meter semi-finals to be held at 17:00 was also announced.

"Xu Zhihao, Habibo...is there something wrong with the people who organized the groups? Why have they been put into the same group as me again?" Lao Yi held the half of the newly obtained bag in his hand.

The list of finalists, shouted loudly in his unique Nanpu accent.

Wei En hasn't read the list yet, but he nodded in agreement: "This grouping is indeed a bit unreasonable. There are 6 groups in the preliminaries and 3 groups in the semi-finals. Logically speaking, we should try to avoid the opponents of the preliminaries appearing in the same half.

of the final group.”

Although this is not a hard and fast rule, the 100m, 200m and other events in the World Series basically follow this convention when grouping them.

Like Lao Yi, it is basically a rare situation for the second and third place in the preliminaries group to be in the same semi-final group as him.

At this time, Su Bingtian reminded: "You'd better stop caring about your senior brother and look at your group."

"Ah? What happened to my grouping? Could it be that Weber Waugh and Masashi Erikochi are both in the same group as me?"

"Uh... what should I say?" Su Bingtian was a little embarrassed for a moment, and finally chose to hand over the list: "You'd better read it yourself."

"Ha~ It's interesting. I want to see what kind of grouping it is. Can Frances and I be grouped together..."

When Wayne saw his name and Francis appear in the third group at the same time, a big "question mark" seemed to be written on his handsome face.

"Nice pen!"

What else can I say? I can only say that it is awesome.

In the men's 100-meter event of the Asian Games, both Wei En and Francis are the favorites to win the championship. According to normal thinking, the organizing committee should divide them into different groups in the semi-finals.

Because this is not only fair to their opponents in the same group, but also increases the suspense.

But what is going on now?

Well, Wei En took a closer look at the list and found that there was nothing wrong with the list just in terms of rules.

There are three groups in the semi-finals, and each group has two top players in the preliminaries. Wei En remembers clearly that in the original timeline, the top two players in the preliminaries in the third group of the semi-finals should be Francis and Ha.

Elsie.

Now that Halsey has been assigned to the second group of the semi-finals, it makes sense for Wei En, the first in the second group of the preliminaries, and Francis, the first of the fifth group of the preliminaries, to be together.

"It's okay, Francis, it's not a big problem." Wei En flicked the list in his hand. No matter what the organizing committee's purpose was for placing him and Francis in the same semi-final group, in short -

there is always a solution to a problem!

Asian record holder?

Just do it and it’s done!

——————————

At 17:20, the CCTV live camera focused on Lao Yi who was entering the venue on time. It also showed that the first group of men's 100m semi-finals had entered the preparation stage.

Yang Jian, who was sitting in the commentary box, took advantage of the precious time that Tong Rina had given to interview the two Chinese women's team members Tao Yujia and Ye Jiabei who had reached the 100-meter finals. He took a good rest and drank some water to moisten his throat.

Seeing that Lao Yi on the screen had already entered the stadium, he continued to explain: "Okay, let us return our attention to the 100-meter track. Our Chinese player Lao Yi has now entered the stadium. The next thing to do is the Asian Games.

The highlight of the meet - the men’s 100m semi-finals!”

"I would like to remind all viewers that the men's 100m final will be held at 19:30 tonight. Please don't miss it. You must appear in front of the TV on time when you are two hours old, otherwise you may miss a witness.

A moment in history!”

Yang Jian's words are all based on his "professional" judgment. In his opinion, both Wei En and Lao Yi have a very good chance of winning the men's 100-meter championship in this Asian Games, and among the opponents from other countries, they are the greatest threat.

The ones who are undoubtedly Francis of Qatar and Neon’s national championship champion Masashi Erikochi.

Although Francis has declined to a certain extent due to injury in terms of season results, and Masashi Erikochi only ran a time of 10.5 seconds in the preliminaries for some reason, but of course he dare not guarantee the championship. Who knows?

Are the two hiding their strength?

The atmosphere in the semi-finals was obviously much more lively than that in the preliminaries. The Guangdong Olympic Sports Center Stadium, which can accommodate 80,000 people, was almost full in the east, south and west sides.

It just looks a little empty from the side.

The camera has always focused on Lao Yi. The audience has not stopped shouting since Lao Yi entered the arena. They are all trying their best to cheer for Lao Yi.

The promotion rules for the men's 100m semi-finals of the Guangzhou Asian Games are the same as those in general international competitions. There are three semi-final groups, and the top two in each group advance directly. In addition, the two best results will be promoted in advance, that is, 2x3 2.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Soon the athletes all finished their trial run and entered the introduction session.

The semi-finals are not the finals, and the Asian Games are not the World Series, so in the introduction session only a few famous players from Asia need to be introduced, which is convenient for Yang Jian.

Although there will be two top athletes in the preliminaries group in a semi-final group, the other top player in the preliminaries in this group is the "five" players from the cold country. Although he is the top player in the group, he is the top player in the preliminaries group.

His grades were too low and he was placed in track 3. The camera just stopped in front of him for a moment, and his name was not even read out.

Lane 4 is Lao Yi, lane 5 is Xiangjiang player Xu Zhihao from China, and lane 6 is Saudi Arabian player Habib. The three of them are not only the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in the 4th preliminary round, but also the preliminary results in this semi-final group.

The three best people.

Yang Jian: "For Lao Yi, entering the finals is definitely the first goal, and he must also strive for the top two in the group to advance directly. Of course, this is not a problem for him, because we all see Lao Yi's strength.

Not only is he the second person in the history of our country's men's 100 meters, his 10.09 seconds is also the second best time in Asia this year..."

"on your marks~"

After the instructions were given for everyone to take their positions, the players stepped forward on the running blocks one after another, making ready movements and waiting for the gun to be fired.

"set——"

Lao Yi raised his waist and hips, tightening his muscles all over his body. The exposed and swollen leg muscles showed that he was ready to go.

"boom--!

"

The moment the gun rang out, Lao Yi's tense muscles quickly burst out with powerful power, and he jumped out with the standard [explosive start] technical move.

There is a gap of two hours between the semi-finals and the final. At his peak, he will be able to fully recover his physical strength by then, so he will definitely go all out even if he is not sure of his absolute advantage!

Thanks to learning the [explosive start] technique, under Wei En's suggestion, he changed a lot of technical details in the first 10 starts of acceleration: for example, reducing the back kick, for example, giving up the meaningless cadence and increasing a certain amount of pace.

Stride length.

Originally, Lao Yi's cumulative step length for the first seven steps was 9.48 meters, but now it has been fixed at around 10.20 meters.

Many people think that in the first 10 meters of running, the faster the cadence and the shorter the stride length, the faster they can run.

When Wei En first suggested that he increase the stride length of the first seven steps, he and coach Chen Wenzhong both felt the same way. However, after Wei En explained the principles and summarized the accumulated data over time, he really believed in Wei En.

kindness.

Moreover, his total number of steps during the 100-meter race was 46.5~47, which improved to 46 steps. This seemingly unreasonable improvement made his 100-meter score improve by leaps and bounds.

But the core point behind this is: the improvement of special strength. In Wei En's words - only with strength can there be speed!

Thanks to the improvement of his future ability, Lao Yi was firmly in the first echelon at 10 meters. By the time he reached 20 meters, he had already gained the lead with his super acceleration ability.

It's still a long process of focusing on acceleration. Lao Yi doesn't care how the opponents around him perform, he just wants to show his best self on this track!

Yang Jian: "At the beginning of the game, Lao Yi's acceleration was very good. After 20 meters, he already had a clear lead!"

On the track, Lao Yi took the lead and ran at the front, followed closely by Habibo in lane 6. Xu Zhihao's acceleration ability was weak in the front and he was conserving his energy to prepare for the rear.

At 40 meters, Lao Yi was already one step ahead of Habibo, who was in the second echelon, but this was not the moment when the gap was the largest, because he would gradually increase his speed to the extreme next.

The future is where Lao Yi’s confidence lies!

In the men's 100m final of the Jinan National Track and Field Championships, Wei En broke the national record for the second time with a time of 10.06 seconds. His front and rear splits were 6.49 3.57.

Lao Yi also broke the national record with a time of 10.09 seconds at the Chongqing National Track and Field Championships. At that time, his front and rear splits were: 6.53 3.56!

Although this last 40-meter data of 3.56 seconds was run with the help of a strong tailwind of 1.2m/s, it is enough to give Lao Yi endless confidence, at least until someone can run a better result and divide it into sections.

He is the first person in Asia to finish the 100 meters this year!

Yang Jian: "Lao Yi's performance was very strong. He left his opponents far behind. His speed ability is indeed unmatched by other players on the field!"

"In the final sprint stage, Lao Yi chose to save his energy and let go. Look at the result after crossing the line, 10 seconds and 18 seconds!"

"Oh my God, 10 seconds and 18!"

"Lao Yi's state today can really be described as "brave". After seeing his strong performance, I even doubted whether Wei En and Francis could withstand Lao Yi's impact in the final...

.”

On the big screen, the final results after verification were released:

Wind speed: (1.7m/s)

1————China——Lao Yi——10.19

2——Hong Kong, China——Xu Zhihao——10.32

3————Saudi Arabia————Habibo——10.40

4......

Lao Yi was also very satisfied with his shot. Although after some celebrations, the number on the timer changed from "10.18" to "10.19", the smooth rhythm of the whole process made him feel that his condition today was even better.

Better than the day of the Chongqing Track and Field Championships!

The impact of this shot was not too great, but he felt that if he ran with all his strength, he would have a very good chance of breaking the 10-second mark again.

There is even a small chance that it will challenge the national record of 10.06 seconds!

Lao Yi set his sights on the starting line. Although Wei En of the third group was still waiting in the waiting room, Lao Yi seemed to be able to see his favorite junior brother standing there.

Junior brother, let’s have a good competition in the finals!

See you in the finals!
