Macau, the 4th East Asian Athletes Organizing Committee. Staff member Ye Chu is compiling the athlete registration information.
"It's time for the track and field event." Ye Chu's heart was suddenly inexplicably excited. The organizing committee had confirmed that Zhang Guan from the national team is determined to participate in the East Asian Games. Then the media in Macau immediately reported that it directly led to the 100-meter sprint race. Tickets for that day were out of stock. Ye Chu, as a staff member, has to serve the game, so he cannot go to the scene to watch the heroic posture of the world's first flying man, but several of his friends have already bought tickets for the day.
"Enroll for the 100-meter sprint event, Hu Kai, Jin Ke! Zhang Guan? Isn't it that he will come to participate in the competition? Why didn't he come!" Ye Chu looked again carefully and confirmed that there was no Zhang Guan among the registration personnel of the 100-meter sprint.
Ye Chu immediately felt very disappointed, he had a feeling of being deceived. Then he resisted the feeling of loss in his heart and compiled the information of the 100-meter sprinter.
"200-meter sprint event!" Ye Chu summarized the athletes' information one by one, "Gao Pingshi, Yusuke Omae, Park Jin-hee, Zhang Guan, Yang Yao... etc! Zhang Guan! Zhang Guan, it is Zhang Guan! Instead of running 100 meters, he took part in a 200-meter sprint!"
Ye Chu suddenly felt a sense of recovery.
"The 200-meter sprint, Zhang Guan should never have participated in the 200-meter sprint! When did he start the 200-meter sprint? Is this his first 200-meter show?" Ye Chu suddenly had the urge to ask for leave to watch the game.
"By the way, my friends bought tickets for the 100-meter race to see Zhang Guan's game. I have to tell them to change the tickets as soon as possible!" Ye Chu immediately picked up his phone and told the news to his friends.
Subsequently, he started his work again, followed by a summary of the athletes who registered for the 400-meter sprint event.
"Zhang Guan!" Ye Chu saw the name again!
"Still Zhang Guan, it is Zhang Guan! Is he going to run 400 meters?" Ye Chu is not a professional sportsman so he is not very clear about the concepts of 100 meters, 200 meters, and 400 meters, let alone 100 meters and 400 meters. How big is the difference between meters, but he knows that the 200 meters and 400 meters are not held on the same day, plus the 4 by 100 meters game, so there must be more viewers coming to see Zhang Guan's game?
...
East Asian Games: "Zhang Guan's 200m debut!";
"Zhang Guan participated in the 400-meter sprint event of the East Asian Games";
"Zhang Guan gives up 100 meters and will participate in the 200 meters and 400 meters";
"The Organizing Committee changes the relay schedule, the flying man Zhang Guan three days and three battles";
"Lonely for defeat? He is invincible in the hundred meters, Zhang Guan goes to the 200-meter field ";
"The advantage is too big, Zhang Guan defaults to 200 meters sprint champion? ";
"100 meters and 400 meters, two different projects, Zhang Guan encountered Waterloo? ".
A day later, the media reports were like a blowout. Then, in front of the Tianguan Center, Xinzhuang Base, and Zhang Guan's house, countless reporters poured in. Everyone's attention to this matter is still very high.
Then, the field management center had to hold a special press conference.
"The recent media reports that Zhang Guan is not participating in the 100-meter sprint event of the East Asian Games, but is participating in the 200-meter sprint and the 400-meter sprint? Is it true?" A reporter asked.
"It is true. This point can be found in the athlete registration information database of the Organizing Committee of the East Asian Games." The spokesperson said.
Another reporter raised his hand immediately and obtained the right to speak, "When did Zhang Guan start training for the 200-meter sprint and the 400-meter sprint?"
The spokesman had already expected that someone would ask this question, so he said unhurriedly, "Since the end of last year's Olympics, Zhang Guan has begun to try 200-meter sprint training. The 400-meter dash training started after the 200 meters training."
"How about Zhang Guan's current 200-meter and 400-meter levels?" The reporter asked.
"Zhang Guan thinks that he is a very strong athlete. His level and achievements in the 100-meter sprint event are obvious to all. We are looking forward to seeing Zhang Guan compete in the 200-meter and 400-meter competition. "
"For this East Asian Games, is Zhang Guan shouldering the mission of winning the 200m sprint and 400m sprint?" The next reporter asked.
"The game is somewhat unknown and unpredictable, so there is no such thing as you say. We sincerely hope that all athletes can achieve excellent results in the game." The spokesman said.
...
In Japan, the Japanese team coach Kobayashi has been informed that Zhang Guan will participate in the 200-meter and 400-meter sprints.
"We know that we cannot beat Zhang Guan in the 100-meter sprint. We specially selected young athletes to participate in the 100-meter sprint. In the 200-meter sprint and the 400-meter sprint, we sent ace athletes, but we did not expect Zhang Guan to give up on participating in the 100-meter sprint race and choose the 200-meter and 400-meter as his two events!" Although Kobayashi's face was calm, there was a depressing feeling in his heart.
The coach said, "In addition to Zhang Guan, other athletes in China are also very strong in the 100-meter sprint event. I think Zhang Guan deliberately ceded the 100-meter entry to other athletes of the Chinese team. So he will participate in the 200m and 400m races ... "
"I don't want to know why Zhang Guan wanted to participate in the 200m and 400m races. I just want to know what are the chances of us winning!"Jinghe interrupted the coach and said, "Zhang Guan did not participate before so we can say that this is his first time running in the 200m sprint and 400m sprint. We don't have any information about Zhang Guan's strength in the 200m sprint and 400m sprint."
Inoue Gou first said, "Coach, I don't think Zhang Guan will have strong strength in these two projects. We all know that it may be easier for a 200m player to transition to 100m, but a 100m player to transition to run 200m. The difficulty is very large as many top athletes in the world can achieve very high achievements in the 100-meter sprint, but not in the 200-meter event. As for the 400-meter sprint, this is a very technically demanding event. There is nothing in common with the 100-meter sprint so Zhang Guan cannot have a strong strength at 400 meters."
"Coach, I agree with Inoue Gou's statement on the 400-meter project, but I think Zhang Guan should have strong strength in the 200-meter sprint, he should at least be at the top level in Asia. As the world record holder of the 100-meter sprint, in the 100-meter sprint event, he can lead us by about 0.5 seconds. Even if his 200-meter sprint technique is not good, his speed is too advantageous. In the 200-meter event, if it was Shenwu participating, I think we still have a chance to win, but Gao Pingshi is probably not Zhang Guan's opponent." Takano said.
Kobayashi nodded and nodded. He agreed with Takano's statement.
"Guo, you are the national record holder of our 400-meter sprint in Japan. Let's talk about the 400-meter in detail. What do you think of Zhang Guan's 400-meter dash level?" Kobayashi said.
Guo thought about it and said, "As he said, 100m and 400m are completely different projects. If you run 400m with 100m, you don't need to go to the second corner. There is no energy, so if Zhang Guan runs 400 meters, he must learn 400 meters. I have seen Zhang Guan's schedule this year. Since the beginning of the year, he has been playing in Europe until September. Back, during this period, he had no competition for more than two months. With this limited amount of time, it is not enough to fully master the 400-meter sprinting technique, especially the rhythm adjustment and physical strength distribution. Each athlete should take measures according to his physical condition. Different schemes require more time-consuming training to determine the rhythm that suits you. "
"Guo, according to your assessment, what will be the final result of Zhang Guan's 400-meter sprint?" Kobayashi asked.
"Considering his talent for sprinting, I think he should be able to run within 46.5 seconds, maybe even 46 seconds, otherwise the Chinese will not send him to participate." Guo said and looked at everyone and said with some excitement, "Everyone, I think this is a good opportunity for us to defeat Zhang Guan! Zhang Guan is too arrogant. If he only runs 200 meters, it's okay, but he chose to run the 400 meters too, so we have to beat Zhang Guan, in the 400-meter dash!"
Beat Zhang Guan?
Jinghe came to the spirit all at once.
In the 2003 Asian Athletics Championships, Zhang Guan was born. The 100-meter sprint that the Japanese were most proud of could never reach the peak of Asia. Especially after Zhang Guan broke the world record, it was equivalent to telling the Japanese directly, don't expect you to beat China in the 100-meter sprint.
At the Athens Olympics last year, the Chinese team won two gold medals in the men's short track and field event. This is not only for the Chinese but also for the whole of Asia. The two gold medals directly told the world that yellow people can also become the world champion in track and field sprint! From that moment on, Xiaolin Jinghe began to bear great pressure.
The Chinese have already won two world championships. They are both Asian with black hair and yellow skin. They also claim to be strong sports. They should have made some breakthroughs in sprinting!
But the performance of the Japanese track and field team this year is very general. In the game, the best score of the 100-meter is 10.40 seconds, the best score of the 200-meter is 20.89 seconds, and the best score of the 400-meter is 45.86 seconds. This is compared to the previous two years which have all gone backward.
The athletes are the same group of athletes in the previous two years, and even newcomers such as Tsukahara Naoki appear, but their performance has declined. From what the outside world sees, the main issue is the coach, and some people are spearheaded.
So Kobayashi Jinghe urgently needs a stimulant!
"Defeat Zhang Guan! If you can't do it at 100 meters, maybe you can't do it at 200 meters, but at 400 meters we can do it!"
