Chapter 121 - Breaking the 100m Record

"9 seconds 75! 9 seconds 75! A new world record! A new world record! Zhang Guan once again broke the world record!" The commentator exclaimed excitedly.

At this time, the voice of the director sounded in the narrator's headset, "Hey, hello, the leader asked me to remind you to pay attention to your image. Are you listening? Pay attention to your image, it is now live!"

The narrator calmed down in an instant. He did not know whether the roaring commentary would deduct his salary. He was somewhat worried and calmed down. He said with a slightly calm tone, "We congratulate Zhang Guan! Congratulations on breaking the world record again The world record for men's 100 meters. The last 100 meters world record was 9 seconds 76, which was set by Zhang Guan in the Yokohama All-Star Game last year; and another 100 meters world record was also set by Zhang Guan at the Athens Olympic Games last year: 9 seconds 77! Now the three fastest results of the 100-meter sprint in the world are all created by Zhang Guan. In this project, he is the world's well-deserved first! He is the world's well-deserved first flying man!"

The narrator became more and more excited. He directly ignored Powell's 9.77-second result set from last week and began to tout up the crown.

"Cough, pay attention to your image, this is a live broadcast!" The director found that the narrator became more and more excited, and seemed to be out of control, immediately reminded in the headset.

The narrator helplessly calms down again and the state of excitement that had just been mobilized disappeared without a trace.

...

Sharapova didn't quite understand the meaning behind the 100-meter world record, but she can see from the performance of the surrounding audience that this is a remarkable achievement. At this moment, Sharapova suddenly felt very proud. She looked at Zhang Guan, who was waving thanks to everyone at the end. For the first time, she felt that her lover seemed quite great.

That's right, it's great. A very high-sounding word, it seems that it is not suitable for her lover, but it is the most genuine feeling in Sharapova's heart.

"That's my boyfriend!"

...

Coach Yu has been somewhat collapsed as if he has just experienced the baptism of hell. He has been teaching for more than 30 years, and he has never felt this way before. He even has some instability. If it's not Coach Sun who stepped forward and helped Yu, he may have already fallen on the spot.

Coach Sun knows that Yu Gui's performance of the body is like this after removing the heavy pressure. At this time, Yu Gui is like a full bowstring who suddenly loosened. Coach Sun can better understand the pressure that Yu Gui has been under during the past week.

At the Olympics last year, in the preliminary, semi-finals, semi-finals, and finals, Zhang Guan seemed to be a warrior. He had challenged one level after another. At that time, Yu Gui was more excited and excited. As for the pressure, there was not that much, after Zhang Guan entered the second round, every step forward is a historical breakthrough for the track and field team, so there is no pressure on the coach. In the indoor competition at the beginning of the year, Zhang Guanxue washed the 60-meter indoor sprint across Europe. At that time, Yu Guan's mind was more of an expectation for Zhang Guan. Zhang Guan's good condition did indeed allow the coach to look forward to it. But this time the Golden League is different, a man who has the strength to challenge Zhang Guan appeared. From the moment Powell ran out 9.77 seconds, the coach was destined to withstand unprecedented pressure.

"Old Yu, hold on, be more spirited!" Coach Sun slapped Yu's back, and then said, "Look, the record is broken, Zhang Guan broke the record again!"

After listening to Coach Sun, Yu Gui raised his head and looked at the scoreboard. The top 9.75 scores became more conspicuous.

"It's really record-breaking, record-breaking again!" Yu Gui's spirit suddenly recovered by 80%. He saw Powell run out of second place with a score of 9.80 seconds, and suddenly felt a sense of trembling.

"9 seconds and 80, Powell's condition is so good, he can run out of 9 seconds 80! Fortunately, Zhang Guan's condition is better! He broke the world record again..."

...

Powell slowly walked off the track, he seemed very disappointed, he found the best state in the game, he played his speed to the extreme, he ran out of a good result of 9.80 seconds, but he still lost.

"9.75 seconds! A new world record! Zhang Guan just set a new world record in front of me!" Powell felt very stumped, and some could not accept this fact. A week ago, he ran 9.77 seconds in Athens. He thinks he has reached the level of the world record and can challenge Zhang Guan. But just one week ago, Zhang Guan hit the new world record of 9.75 seconds. It was as if he had responded to his 9.77 seconds.

At this level of Powell, every increase of 0.01 seconds seems to be an impossible task, and Zhang Guan uses this 0.01 seconds to swear to the world that he is still the fastest person in the world!

"Asafa, it's okay, it's just a game. You've performed very well today." Coach Suerebo patted Powell's shoulder and then comforted him, "Zhang Guan is in a very good state today. Breaking the world record, it's normal for you to lose to the world record holder, don't be sad and blame yourself for it."

"Thank you, coach." Powell nodded, then said, "I also know that I'm doing very well today, but even then, I still can't beat Zhang Guan. I'm thrown away by him farther and farther. Now I'm worried that I can beat him!"

Suéreber's heart tightened, and what he was most worried about finally began to happen.

Confidence is the most important thing an athlete can't lack, especially an athlete who is preparing to strike at the highest position in the world. He can't lose his confidence. Once an athlete loses his confidence and begins to doubt himself, then he loses the qualification to rush to the highest point in the world.

Over the past six months, Suerebo has been working hard to cultivate Powell's self-confidence. He has always instilled a message to Powell, You will become the world's first, and Powell's strength has continued to grow with his self-confidence. But in just a game, Powell's self-confidence was hit.

A new world record seems to be the sharpest weapon, enough to pierce the confidence of any athlete.

...

Breaking the world record again, Zhang Guan won four skill points, and being the champion of the Golden League Paris station brought Zhang Guan three skill points. Obviously, in the system judgment, the level of this game is not as good as the Olympics. While being the Olympic champion, the system rewarded him with four skill points.

Zhang Guan carefully recalled the course of the whole game. He found that, according to his current physical condition, the result of 9.75 seconds seemed to be approaching the limit. Zhang Guan initially judged that he was in this state of full physical strength. Next, you might be able to improve your score a little bit, but it will never be faster than 9.70 seconds, which is almost 9.72 seconds or 9.73 seconds.

The peak period of male sprinters will almost come at the age of 24. At the age of 30, the competitive state will begin to decline, and the decline of the competitive state maybe earlier. Zhang Guan is now only 19 years old, and his body has not reached his peak period. If Zhang Guan's body reaches the peak period, it will be no problem to run into 9.70 seconds at full state.

Zhang Guan felt that this was not fast enough, because in the capital Olympics three years later, Bolt would run an amazing result of 9.69 seconds, and that was when Bolt finally turned back, and then in the World Championships in Berlin, he ran an amazing world record of 9.58 seconds.

9.58 seconds and 9.70 seconds, a difference of 0.12 seconds, in the top 100-meter sprint contest, 0.12 seconds can be said to be a completely impossible gap.

"Now it's just Powell, it's already so difficult. If I meet Bolt in the future, I might be defeated!" Zhang Guan shook his head slightly, he thought he should be faster.

"The body should reach the limit, and there is no way to increase physical strength and state. It seems that only this method can be used, but I don't know how effective that method will be." Thinking of this, Zhang Guan entered the system store and spent 10 skill points, he bought a pair of running shoes.

A prompt appeared on the system, "Congratulations on your first purchase of sports equipment. The store also provides you with various auxiliary equipment for you to choose from."

"Auxiliary equipment? What is it?" Zhang Guan opened the column of auxiliary equipment in the system store and then saw a dazzling array of commodities.

[Tennis Eagle Eye Instant Replay System]: Overcome the limit blind spot in human observation ability. The price is 15 skill points.

[Real-time map system of Dakar Rally]: Provide a real-time map of Dakar Rally, can query the weather, road conditions, etc. in real-time, and can provide the best forward route. The price is 20 skill points.

[Full Formula One Information System]: Provides real-time track conditions, tire wear of individual drivers, fuel conditions, and other data, and provides accurate weather forecasts after ten minutes. The price is 25 skill points.

[Football God's perspective System]: can provide visual information anywhere in the game. The price is 15 skill points.

Zhang Guan looked at each one and found that this so-called auxiliary equipment seemed to be more effective than sports equipment. For example, the God perspective system of football. The goalkeeper can watch the opponent shoot free kicks from God's perspective, that is to say, the wall of the free-kick. The effect is completely lost; for example, a striker can confirm his position and opponent's dynamics from the perspective of God while observing the ball. Whether it is anti-offside or the route selection of the ball breakthrough, they are at an absolute advantage.

However, these so-called auxiliary equipment have a common feature, that is, the price is expensive, at least with Zhang's current financial resources, he simply cannot afford it.

"After mixing for so long, you can afford a pair of running shoes. Don't think about this auxiliary equipment anymore. You can't afford them anyway." Zhang Guan shook his head, returned to the inventory and found the running shoes, and then clicked the equipment.

"I don't know how effective the running shoes are, and how much speed can be enhanced? Anyway, the Lausanne station for the super prize is soon. I will know when I try it."
